THE APPLICATION OF REVELATION
(PART 1)
20 RAJAB 1434 / 29th MAY 2013
- This topic is important: We will be looking at Usool ul Fiqh.
- We are talking about how to implement & apply Revelation.
WHAT IS THE REVELATION?
The Revelation is Quran and Sunnah.
The Hadith which is the revelation; is divided into two categories:
Hadith NABAWI and Hadith QUDSI
The Hadith Qudsi is called the Sacred Hadith.
WHAT IS
THE DEFINITION OF THE HADITH QUDSI?
- The hadith Qudsi is a hadith in which the meaning came to the Prophet ﷺ from Allah, by way of inspiration and revelation.
- Which the Prophet expressed the Hadith in his own words.
Hadith-e-Qudsiis a term used which signifies that the meaning of the
hadith is from Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ), and the words are
related from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ,
unlike the Quran where the meaning and the words are both from Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ).
Hadith-e-Qudsis not a separate book or Revelation of Allah Subhanah like the
Quran, and the exact same science and investigation that is needed to determine
the authenticity of any hadith will be used to determine if the Hadith-e-Qudsi
narrated by the narrator from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ is
indeed authentic or not.
WHAT ARE THE
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE HADITH QUDSI AND THE QURAN?
There are four differences:
DIFFERENCE 1: - With the Quran, the words and the meanings are
both from Allah (SWT)
- However, with the Hadith Qudsi, the meaning is from Allah;
- But the Prophet ﷺ expressed with words.
DIFFERENCE 2: - We recite the Quran in Salah; - However we
cannot recite Hadith Qudsi in Salah
DIFFERENCE 3: - The Holy Quran is Mutawaatir,
-While not every Hadith Qudsi is Mutawaatir.
DIFFERENCE 4: - To read and recite the Quran is an act of
Ibadah,
- Each letter you recite gives you ten barakah
- You do not get ten barakah for each time you each letter in a hadith Qudsi.
There is no doubt that you get barakah for reading hadith,
- But not on the same level as reading Quran.
All these things are called Mustalah Hadith and Usul al Fiqh
Some examples of
Hadith Qudsi:
Allah ﷺ Has Forbidden oppression, For
Himself and the Muslims:
On the
authority of Abu Dharr Al-Ghafari, of the prophet is that among the sayings he
relates from his Lord is that He said: "O MY servants, I have forbidden
oppression for Myself and have made it forbidden amongst you, so do not oppress
one another.... [Related by Muslim.]
Verily My Mercy
Prevails Over My Wrath:
Abu Huraira
reported Allah's Messenger ﷺ as saying: Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, said:
"My Mercy prevails over My Wrath." [Al-Bukhari (7553), Muslim (2751),
Tirmidhi (3543), Ahmad (7297)]
I Am As My
servant thinks of Me:
On the
authority of Abu Hurayra (RA), who said that the Prophet (ﷺ) said:
"Allah the Almighty said: 'I am as My servant thinks I am. I am with him
when he makes mention of Me. If he makes mention of Me to himself, I make
mention of him to Myself; and if he makes mention of Me in an assembly, I make
mention of him in an assembly better than it. And if he draws near to Me an
arm's length, I draw near to him a fathom's length. And if he comes to Me walking,
I go to him at speed." [Al-Bukhari (7405) also by Muslim (2675),
at-Tirmidh i(2388) and Ibn Majah (3822)]
Mankind abuses
Me by abusing time:
On the
authority of Abu Hurayra (RA), who said that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:
"Allah said: 'Sons of Adam inveigh against [the vicissitudes of] Time, and
I am Time, in My hand is the night and the day.'" As the Almighty is the
Ordainer of all things, to inveigh against misfortunes that are part of Time is
tantamount to inveighing against Him. [Bukhari (also by Muslim)]
An Example of cursing time:
- You look at yourself in the mirror; and you notice how your beard has
become white and your skin is wrinkled and you are 60 years old.
- You say: "Look what time has done to me".
- You start to curse the time.
THE FIVE MOST
IMPORTANT REVELATIONS OF ALLAH -
Revelation 1: The Scrolls of Abraham (AS).
Revelation 2: The Psalms of Dawud (AS).
Revelation 3: The Torah of Musa (AS).
Revelation 4: The Injeel of ISA (AS).
Revelation 5: The Quran of Muhammad (ﷺ).
From all these five revelations, only the Quran remains intact
The others have been corrupted, or fallen into oblivion.
To prove to you that the Quran is protected:
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
Verily We: It
is We Who have sent down the Dhikr (i.e. the Qur'ān) and surely, We will guard
it (from corruption). (Al-Hijr 15:9)
The other verse to prove that the Quran is protected:
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
Falsehood
cannot come to it from before it or behind it (it is) sent down by the
All-Wise, Worthy of all praise (Allāh). (Fussilat 41:42)
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) has promised to protect the Quran; So those who
believe that the Quran is corrupted, are accusing Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ)
of breaking His Promise.
They are accusing Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) of breaking His
promise of protecting the Quran.
To prove to you that the previous books have been corrupted:
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
Then woe to
those who write the Book with their own hands and then say, "This is from
Allāh,"to purchase with it a little price! Woe to them for what their
hands have written and woe to them for that they earn thereby. (Al-Baqarah
2:79)
The Prophet (ﷺ) said do not believe the people of the book and do
not reject them
HADITH:
Narrated Abu Huraira: "The People of the Book
(Jews) used to read the Torah in Hebrew and then explain it in Arabic to the
Muslims. Allah's Apostle said (to the Muslims). "Do not believe the People
of the Book, nor disbelieve them, but say, 'We believe in Allah and whatever is
revealed to us, and whatever is revealed to you.' " [Sahih Bukhari Volume
9, Book 92, Number 460]
The Prophet (ﷺ) saw Umar (RA) reading the Torah, and he became
upset
HADITH:
It was reported that the Prophet (ﷺ) became angry
when he saw that ‘Umar had a page with something from the Torah written on it,
and he (ﷺ)
said: “Are you in doubt, O son of al-Khattab? Have I not brought you something
shining and pure? If my brother Musa were alive, he would have no choice but to
follow me.” [Musnad Ahmad (3/387) No. 15195 and Sunan al-Darime (1/126)
No. 435]
He became upset because what he was reading was a corrupted text.
The reason Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) is protecting the
Quran, is because the Quran is the final Revelation.
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) protected the Quran, because the previous books
are obsolete.
We were created to apply Allah's Revelation.
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
And I (Allāh)
created not the jinns and humans except they should worship Me (Alone). (Adh-Dhariyat
51:56)
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE
OF LIFE?
The whole purpose of our creation is to Apply Allah's Revelations
This is the purpose of life:
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
And I
(Allāh)created not the jinns and humans except they should worship Me (Alone).
(Adh-Dhariyat
51:56)
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Mentioned the Jinn first, because they were on
earth 2000 years before Man was created.
The whole purpose of creating man is for you to worship Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ).
Whatever Shariah
you practice is your deen:
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
He could not
take his brother by the law of the king (as a slave), except that Allāh Willed
it. (Yusuf 12:76)
'Deen al-malik' here: Means the Shariah of the king.
The Kuffar practice democracy because that is their deen
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
Do they then
seek the judgement of (the Days of) Ignorance? And who is better in judgement
than Allāh for a people who have firm Faith. (Al-Ma'idah 5:50)
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) is Asking you a question in above surah Al
Mai'dah Verse 50
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) is asking us if the system of Jahiliyya (Ignorance)
is what we are seeking.
This ayah is telling you that Only Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ)
has The authority To Legislate your Deen for you.
Ibn Kathir used this ayah to make takfir on those who implement man made
laws,.
Ibn Kathir
(rh) said: “So Whosoever abandons the wise Shariah which was revealed upon Muhammad
ibn Abdullah, the seal of the prophets, and goes to other abrogated Shariah for
judgment, he becomes a Kaafir. So how about the one who goes to al-Yaasiq
(man-made law) for judgment and gives it precedence (over the Shariah of
Muhammad (ﷺ).
Whosoever does this has become a Kaafir by the Ijma of the Muslims.”
[Al-Bidayah Wan-Nihayah, (Vol. 13, p119)]
Allama Shinqiti (RA) used this ayah to make takfir on those who go to
the kaafir courthouse for judgement.
'Allama
al-Shinqiti-May Allah be merciful with him-has said: To commit shirk with Allah
in judging is of the same meaning as to commit shirk in His worship, there is
no difference between the two in any manner. There is no difference in any
sense between he who follows a system (nizam) other than Allah's system or law
other than Allah's law (sharia) and he who worships an idol or prostrates to a
false god. They are the same and both are polytheists [associating others] with
Allah. [Adwa' al-Bayan, (7/162)]
Do you want the laws of Jahhiliya to judge for you?
Only Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) has The Authority To Legislate your Deen for you.
And Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
Or even do they
have associates (with Allah) who have legislated for them as the religion that
which Allah has not given permission? And had it not been for the Word of
Verdict, indeed it would have been decreed between them, and surely the unjust
will have a painful torment. (Ash-Shura 42:21) [Dr. Ghali translation]
- No priests, rabbis or shaikhs can give you a deen.
- Historically, there has always been a tug of war: between those who
want to apply Allah's (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) Revelation, and those
who want to apply abomination.
-Abomination = Haram things, (Evil and corrupt desires)
EVEN IN THE TIME
OF THE PROPHET:
- The best generation was the generation of the companions (RA) of the
Prophet (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ).
-They tried to get the prophet to compromise in applying Allah's
Revelation.
- A woman from the Makhzumiya tribe borrowed the expensive jewellery of
other women and refused to give it back.
- The Makhzumiyah tribe were a very powerful tribe.
- The Prophet (ﷺ) commanded the Sahaba to cut off her hand.
- So they asked Usama, because they knew that the prophet loved Usaama,
-To go and ask the Prophet (ﷺ) to relax
the punishment for her.
'A'isha
reported that Quraysh were concerned with the case of a Makhzumi woman who had
stolen something and they said, "Who will speak to the Messenger of Allah
(SAW) about her?" They said, "Who is bold enough to do it except
Usama ibn Zayd, the beloved of the Messenger of Allah?" Usama spoke to him
and the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "How can you intercede when it is a
case of one of the legal punishments of Allah Almighty?" Then he stood up
and spoke and said, "Those before you were destroyed because when a noble
among them stole, they let him be, but when the weak among them stole, they
carried out the legal punishment on them. By Allah, if Fatima the daughter of
Muhammad were to steal, I would cut off her hand." [A-Bukhari (3475)
and Muslim (1688)]
- Even though the sahaba were the most noble and pious;
- They approached the prophet and asked him to relax the application of
the law.
- This proves that people always have problems applying the Revelation
of Allah (SWT).
- Historically people struggled to keep up with the rules.
Evidence for cutting the hand of the thief:
Allah ﷺ Said He is the Legislator:
Cut off (from
the wrist joint) the (right) hand of the thief, male or female, as a recompense
for that which they committed, a punishment by way of example from Allāh. And
Allāh is All Powerful, All Wise. (Al-Ma'idah 5:38)
FIVE REASONS WHY ALLAH IS THE ONLY LEGISLATOR
REASON 1 - HE
IS THE WISEST OF JUDGES
Is not Allāh
the Best of judges? (At-Tin 95:8)
REASON 2 - HE
IS THE MOST MERCIFUL.
- A country governed with man-made laws has no mercy in its legal system
- They will tell you that ignorance of the law is no excuse.
- You do the crime, you pay the fine, or you do the time.
- Where as Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) Has Made His Mercy
Prevail His Wrath:
Abu Huraira
reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying: Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, said:
"My Mercy prevails over My wrath." [A-Bukhari (7553), Muslim
(2751), Tirmidhi (3543), Ahmad (7297)]
REASON 3 -
HE IS THE MOST JUST.
Allah سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ Said:
Allāh is never
unjust to (His) slaves. (Al Imran 3:182)
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) is not tyrannical to His servants.
He has made oppression Haram on Himself and Haram among us:
HADITH:
On the authority of Abu Dharr Al-Ghafari, of the
prophet is that among the sayings he relates from his Lord is that He said:
"O My servants, I have forbidden oppression for Myself and have made it
forbidden amongst you, so do not oppress one another
[Related by
Muslim]
- You think haram is upon you only.
- There are a lot of things that Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ)
Has Made Haram for Himself:
- It is Haram for Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) to oppress,
- It is Haram for Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) to lie,
- It is Haram for Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) to create another
creation and give him the same power as Himself
- If Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) created another god like himself, there would be
fitnah.
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
if there had
been many gods), behold, each god would have taken awaywhat he had created, and
some would have tried to overcome others! Glorified be Allāh above all that
they attribute to Him! (Al-Mu'minun
23:91)
- Each god would want to seize his own Creation.
- Each god would want to run away with what he created, there would be
fitnah.
- It is haram for Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) to beget a son, He
Has no wife:
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
How can He have
children when He has no wife? He created all things and He is the All-Knower of
everything. (Al-An'am 6:101)
- The Christians say Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) committed suicide,
he begot a son, he had an affair.
- The Christians say Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) came down on earth
and died for Mankind.
- They accuse Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ)
of committing Suicide.
- It is Haram for Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) to break a Promise.
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
"Our Lord!
Grant us what You promised unto us through Your Messengers and disgrace us not
on the Day of Resurrection, for You never break (Your) Promise." (Al Imran
3:194)
- Those who believe the Quran is corrupted are kuffar.
-When you refuse to call a kaafir a kaafir you become a kaafir yourself.
- It's a principle of Takfeer
Abu al-Husain
Muhammad Ibn Ahmad al-'Asqalani said: «The Mu'tazila of Baghdad and Basra, and
all of ahl al-Qibla, there is no ikhtilaf between them concerning, that the one
who doubts regarding the kafir then he himself is a kafir, because the doubter
(sakk) concerning kufr there's no ‘iman for him, because he don't know kufr
from ‘iman. So there's no dispute between the Umma, the Mu'tazila and other
than them; that the doubter concerning the kafir is kafir!“Taken from (Kitab
al-Tanbih wa al-Radd 'ala ahl al-Ahwa' wa al-Bida’, by Muhammad Ibn Ahmad
al-Malati)
REASON 4 -
ALLAH (SWT) IS OBJECTIVE NOT SUBJECTIVE.
REASON 5 -
HE HAS NOTHING TO GAIN FROM THE LAW
- Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) is independent from the law
- Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) has absolutely nothing to gain from us.
- Even if we were to become the righteous people on Earth:
- It would not increase anything in Allah's Bounty.
HADITH QUDSI:
On the authority of Abu Dharr Al-Ghafari, of the
prophet is that among the sayings he relates from his Lord is that He said: "O
My servants, I have forbidden oppression for Myself and have made it forbidden
amongst you, so do not oppress one another. O My servants,all of you are astray
except for those I have guided, so seek guidance of Me and I shall guide you.
O My servants, all of you are hungry except for those I have fed, so seek food
of Me and I shall feed you. O My servants, all of you are naked except for
those I have clothed, so seek clothing of Me and I shall clothe you. O My
servants, you sin by night and by day, and I forgive all sins, so seek
forgiveness of Me and I shall forgive you. O My servants, you will not attain
harming Me so as to harm Me, and you will not attain benefiting Me so as to
benefit Me.
O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and
the jinn of you to become as pious as the most pious heart of any one man of
you, that would not increase My kingdom in anything. O My servants, were the
first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the jinn of you to be as
wicked as the most wicked heart of any one man of you, that would not decrease
My kingdom in anything.
O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and
the jinn of you to rise up in one place and make a request of Me, and were I to
give everyone what he requested, that would not decrease what I have, any more
than a needle decreases the sea if put into it O My servants, it is but your
deeds that I reckon up for you and then recompense you for, so let him who
finds good praise Allah, and let him who finds other than that blame no one but
himself" [Related by Muslim.]
- When you take out insurance:
- You sign the document, but you forgot to read the small print.
-So the insurance company will not give you any money.
-They will make an excuse, i.e. we do not cover against natural
disasters,
-The law giver cannot be a person who has something to gain from the
law.
-THE ICC: The Hague: The Africans are making a stink about the court.
-They say they are coming after the Africans, but Bush and Blair are
above the law.
-But they want to arrest Sudanese president.
-Why don't they arrest Bush and Blair?
-The ICC makes its own laws and prosecutes people they don't like or who
are in their way. They are racists.
-Bush and Blair are given red carpet wherever they go.
In the Islamic
State: NOBODY IS ABOVE THE LAW:
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said: I Created you
therefore I command you:
His is the
Creation and Commandment. Blessed be Allāh, the Lord of the 'Alamīn (mankind,
jinns and all that exists)! (Al-A'raf 7:54)
-Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) knows your needs, He Knows how you think.
-Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Knows man more than any psychologist, He Knows
our natural instincts.
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
So do not fear
the people but fear Me, and do not exchange My verses for a small price. And
whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed - then it is those who are
the disbelievers. (Al-Ma'idah 5:44) (Pickhtall)
- Therefore those who do not govern what by Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ)
has revealed are AL-KAFIRUN
- The Wicked Scholars claim that this ayah is talking about Jews
- The sincere scholars say that when you say this is for the Jews, you
are insulting Muhammad (ﷺ).
- And the Islamic Shariah.
- Because you are saying, to dismantle the Sharia of Moses makes you a
kaafir;
- But to dismantle the Sharia of Muhammad ﷺ does
not make you a kaafir
- So you are claiming that the Shariah of Musa is better than the
Shariah of Muhammad ﷺ.
- These wicked scholars try to put a spin on the Ayah
-Historically there has always been a struggle between Hizbullah and
Hizbushaytan
-Hizbu-Allah = Those who apply Allah's Revelation
-Hizbu-shaytan = Those who apply abomination.
HOW DO WE
APPLY ALLAH'S REVELATION?
- The Scholars gave us twelve methods of applying Allah's
Revelation:
- This is called USUL AL FIQH - The principles of Fiqh
1) THE FIRST SOURCE FOR
UNDERSTANDING OUR DEEN: THE QURAN.
Jabiribn
Abdullah (RA) narrated the Messenger of Allah () said in the Jumu’ah khutbah:
"...To proceed. The best of the speech is embodied in the Book of Allah,
and the best of the guidance is the guidance given by Muhammad. And the most
evil affairs are their innovations; and every innovation is error..." [Sahih
Muslim (2/592) No. 867]
- There is no difference of opinion that the Quran is the first source.
2) THE SECOND SOURCE: THE
HADITH
-There are people who call themselves 'Quraniyoon';
-They reject hadith as the second source of applying Allah's Revelation.
-They have the audacity to quote the Quran to give evidence to reject
the hadith.
The Ayah they use is Surah
6: Verse 38
We have
neglected nothing in the Book, then unto their Lord they (all) shall be
gathered.
(Al-An'am 6:38)
-Then they claim that the word HADITH linguistically means GOSSIP.
-They say: "So why should I take my DEEN from Gossip?"
-These people are called the Parvezis - They are the followers of Ghulam
Pervez
-They claim that we have Kitaab Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ),
why should I follow hadith.
-We will now use Quran and Sunnah to flush their dodgy ideology down the
drain.
-If you were believers in the Quran, then you would consequently believe
in hadith, because we were commanded by Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ)
in the Quran to follow hadith:
We say to them:
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
Say (O Muhammad
ﷺ to mankind):
"If you (really) love Allāh then follow me (i.e. accept Islāmic
Monotheism, follow the Qur'ān and the Sunnah), Allāh will love you and forgive
you of your sins. And Allāh is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful." (Aali Imran
3:31)
The second proof we use against the Parvezis is 55:3-4
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
Nor does he
speak of (his own) desire. It is only an Inspiration that is inspired. (An-Najm
53: 3-4)
- The Quran is 'wahi' [revelation] and the hadith is also 'wahi'.
-The hadith carries the same power as the Quran in making things fardh
(compulsory) on you; and making things haram (forbidden/prohibited) on you.
- Another example. It is haram for men to wear gold and silk:
Abu Musa
Ash’ari reported that Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Wearing silk and gold is forbidden to the
men of my Ummah. But (they are) allowed to their women.” [Sunan Tirmidhi (4/217) No. 1720,
SunanAn-Nasa'i (8/161) 5148]
- Example.
Sadaqatul Fitr was made fardh by hadith.
- Also we have to recite Surah Fatihah in every single rakah of salah
- This was made fardh by hadith:
NarratedBy
'Ubada bin As-Samit: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Whoever does not recite Al-Fatiha in
his prayer, his prayer is invalid."[Al-Bukhari (756) and Muslim (394)]
-It is haram to marry two sisters and live with them simultaneously,
-This is found in the Quran.
- But in the hadith we find that you cannot marry the aunt and the niece
simultaneously.
Narrated Um
Habiba: I said, "O Allah's Apostle! Marry my sister, the daughter of Abu
Sufyan." He said, "Do you like that?"I said, "Yes, for even
now I am not your only wife; and the most beloved person to share the good with
me is my sister." The Prophet said, "But that is not lawful for me
(i.e., to be married to two sisters at a time.)" I said, "O Allah's
Apostle! By Allah, we have heard that you want to marry Durra, the daughter of
Abu Salama." He said, "You mean the daughter of Um Salama?" I
said, "Yes." He said, "By Allah !Even if she were not my
stepdaughter, she would not be lawful for me to marry, for she is my foster
niece, for Thuwaiba has suckled me and Abu Salama; so you should neither
present your daughters, nor your sisters to me." [Sahih Bukhari, Volume 7,
Book 62, Number #43]
- Another example: We take Jizya from fire worshippers, this is only
found in the Hadith
'Umar did not
take the Jizya from the Magian infidels till 'Abdur-Rahmanbin 'Auf testified
that Allah's Apostle had taken the Jizya from the Magians of Hajar. [Sahih
Bukhari, Vol 4, Book 53, Hadith #384]
-The Hadith is also considered to be REVELATION, because Muhammad (ﷺ) did not speak from his
hawaa (desires).
Another Ayah we use:
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said in Surah Al Hashr verse 7:
And
whatsoever the Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ) gives you, take it, and whatsoever he forbids
you, abstain (from it), and fear Allāh. Verily, Allāh is Severe in punishment. (Al-Hashr 59:7)
THE KNOCK-OUT PUNCH:
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said in Surah An Nahl Verse 44:
That you may
explain clearly to men what is sent down to them, and that they may give
thought. (An-Nahl 16:44)
-that you may explain
clearly to men what is sent down to them
-For you Muhammad (ﷺ) to use the Hadith to explain
the Quran clearly to the people
-So Allah told you to pray
five times a day, but Muhammad (ﷺ) taught you how to pray.
-During Tashahhud, you must
recite AS SALAM ALAN NABI and NOT AS SALAMALAIKA NABI
-grave worshippers say
"asalam alayka" in tashahud to worship Muhammad (ﷺ)
3) THE THIRD SOURCE -
IJMA'A
Ijma'a = Consensus, Agreement.
- Ijamaa means consensus. A total agreement. It is derived form the word
Jama'a
- The four great Imam's believe in Ijma'a
- The Dhahiriyyah don't believe in Ijma'a,
- They say that Ibn Abbas keptquiet about many things because he was
afraid of Umar.
- There are three type of Ijma'a:
Ijma'a
1 - THE IJMA'A OF THE SAHABAS:
-Example 1: To grow the
beard is fardh.
-Example 2: If you abandon
Salah you are a Kafir
Abdullah ibn
Shaqiq Uqayli (RA) reported, saying “The companions of Muhummad (ﷺ) did not regard
neglect of any of the deeds as disbelief as they did (neglect) of
Salah." [Sunan Tirmidhi (5/14) No. 2622 and Mustadrak al-Haakim
(1/48) No. 12 who said it met the conditions of al-Bukhari and Muslim]
Jabir (RA)
reported that Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Between a man (Muslim) and shirk and
disbelief lies neglect of salah.”
[Sahih Muslim (1/88) No. 82, Sunan Tirmidhi (5/13) No. 2620, Sunan Abu
Dawud(4/219) No. 4678, Sunan Ibn Majah (2/181) No. 1078, Sunan An-Nasa'i(1/232)
No. 463, Musnad Ahmad (3/370) No. 15021]
Ijma'a 2 - THE
IJMA'A OF THE FOUR GREAT IMAMS:
-Imam Malik (RA), Imam Sha'fi (RA), Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal (RA), Imam Abu
Hanifah (RA).
- They all agreed that a woman does not make up her missed salah due to
menstruation.
Example 1: When a woman
menstruates she makes up the fast she missed but not the salah she missed, -
all the four Imams agreed on this.
-Only the Khawaarij women would make up the Salah if they missed it due
to menstruation, because they think themselves to be very pious.
Narrated By
Mu'adha: A woman asked 'Aisha, "Should I offer the prayers that which I
did not offer because of menses" 'Aisha said, "Are you from the
Huraura' (a town in Iraq?) We were with the Prophet and used to get our periods
but he never ordered us to offer them (the Prayers missed during menses)."
'Aisha perhaps said, "We did not offer them." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 1, Book 6, Hadith #318]
Ijma'a 3 - THE
IJMA'A OF THE UMMAH
- The Ijma'a of the Ummah is so powerful.
-Example: There is no prophet after Muhammad (ﷺ).
-Example: Hajj is only compulsory only once in your lifetime.
-The prophet only made hajj once.
-The best man was Muhammad (ﷺ).
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) warned those who went against the Ijma'a of the
Ummah: 4:115
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
And whoever
contradicts and opposes the Messenger (Muhammad ﷺ) after the right path has been shown clearly to
him, and follows other than the believers' way. We shall keep him in the path
he has chosen, and burn him in Hell - what an evil destination. (An-Nisa 4:115)
And follows
other than the believers' way and burn him in Hell -
What an evil destination.
If you go against the Ijma'a of the Ummah, your destiny is in the
Hell-fire
Whatever the Muslims see as good, Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ)
Sees it as good, and Whatever the Muslims see as evil,
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) also Sees it as evil:
HADITH:
Ibn Mas'ud (RA) said, "Whatever the Muslims
see as good is good with Allah, Whatever the Muslims see as bad, Allah sees as
bad."[Mustadrak al-Haakim (3/83) No. 4465, classed as Sahih by
Adh-Dhahabee]
Ibn Mas'ud (RA) said, "Indeed Allah looked into the hearts of the servants
and found the heart of Muhammad (ﷺ) to be the best of the hearts of His servants and
so He chose him for Himself and sent him as a Messenger. Then He looked into
the hearts of His servants after Muhammad and found the hearts of the
Companions to be the best of the hearts of the servants. So He made them
ministers of His Messenger fighting for His Deen. So whatever the Muslims see
as good is good with Allah, Whatever the Muslims see as bad, Allah sees as
bad."[Musnad Ahmad (1/379) No. 3600]
EXAMPLES OF
THOSE WHO GO AGAINST THE IJMA'A OF THE SAHABAS OR THE IJMA'A OF THE UMMAH
EXAMPLE 1 -
THE SUFIS:
- They deny what is known of Islam by necessity.
- They claim to follow Imam Malik (RA), but;
- Imam Malik (RA) said: It is known of Islam by necessity that Allah
(SWT) Is Above His Arsh.
- But the Sufis say Allah (RA) is everywhere.
Ja'far Ibn
Abdullah narrated: We were with Malik Ibn Anas when a man came to him and said:
“O Abu Abdullah (Allah said) 'Ar-Rahman upon the Throne Istawa' (20:5), how was
His Istiwa? Imam Malik inclined his head and was silent until the sweat of
fever covered his brow, then he looked up and said: "Istiwa is not
unknown, the Kayf (how) is uncomprehendable, believing in it is wajib
(obligatory), and asking about it is bid'ah (innovation), and I do not think
that you are anything but an innovator." Then he ordered that the man be
expelled. [Abu-Naeem Al-Asbahani in 'Hilyatul-Awliya wa TabaqatAl-Asfiya'
(Vol. 6, pg. 325-326)]
EXAMPLE
2 - THE BREVALIS:
- They say Muhammad (ﷺ ) is alive in his grave, and he hasn't lost any of
his faculties.
-Abu Bakr (RA) said: Muhammad (ﷺ ) is
dead:
Abu Bakr
said, "To proceed, if anyone amongst you used to worship Muhammad, then
Muhammad is dead, but if (anyone of) you used to worship Allah, then Allah is
Alive and shall never die. Allah said:"Muhammad is no more than an
Apostle, and indeed (many) apostles have passed away before him...(till the end
of the Verse)... Allah will reward to those who are thankful." (3.144) By
Allah, it was as if the people never knew that Allah had revealed this Verse
before till Abu Bakr recited it and all the people received it from him, and I
heard everybody reciting it (then). [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 5, Book 59, Hadith
733]
EXAMPLE 3 -
THE SAUDI SALAFIS:
- They went against the Ijma'a of the Ummah:
- They claim to follow Ibn Kathir and Ibn Taymiyyah, but;
- Ibn Kathir and Ibn Taymiyyah said;
Ibn Kathir
(rh) said: “So whosoever abandons the wise Shariah which was revealed upon
Muhammad ibn Abdullah, the seal of the prophets, and goes to other abrogated
Shariah for judgment, he becomes a Kaafir. So how about the one who goes to
al-Yaasiq (man-made law) for judgment and gives it precedence (over the Shariah
of Muhammad (ﷺ).Whosoever does this has become a Kaafir by the Ijma of the
Muslims.” [Al-Bidayah Wan-Nihayah, (Vol. 13, p119)]
- It is known out of necessity that if you dismantle the Shariah you are
a kaafir.
Ibn Taymiyyah
(rh) said: “And it is known from the religion (of Islam)by necessity and by the
consensus of all Muslims that whoever legalizes to follow other than the
religion of Islam or a Shariah other than the Shariah of Muhammad (ﷺ), he is a
Kaafir. And his kufr is similar to that of the one who believes in some part of
the book (Quran) and reject some of it.” [Majmua al-Fataawa (28/524)]
They say to dismantle the Shariah is minor kufr.
They say it doesn't take one out of the fold of Islam.
EXAMPLE 4- THE
SHI'ITES:
They say the Quran is a corrupted text:
SHIA
HUJJAH: The present Quran is in an altered, corrupted and distorted form..
(Fatuhat-e-Shia, p. 129)
They also claim that their Imams know when they are going to die; they
choose when they are going to die and they don't die unless it is their will.
SHIA
HUJJAH: The Imams know when they will die, and they only die by their choice.
(Al
Kafi vol.1 p.25 )
ONLY ALLAH KNOWS WHEN YOU
ARE GOING TO DIE:
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
No person
knows what he will earn tomorrow, and no person knows in what land he will die.
Verily, Allāh is All Knower, All Aware (of things). (Luqman 31:34)
-Their pathetic ideology contradicts the Quran.
EXAMPLE 5 -
THE QADIYAANIS:
-They say Mirza Ghulam Ahmad was a prophet after Muhammad (ﷺ
) .
EXAMPLE 6 -
THE 'NATION OF ISLAM'
They said Elijah Pole was a prophet after Muhammad (ﷺ
) .
-Elijah Pole was a pervert; he impregnated many 13 year old girls.
The proof that Muhammad (ﷺ) is
the last messenger and prophet:
Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ وَتَعَالَىٰ) Said:
Muhammad (ﷺ) is not the father of any man among you, but he is
the Messenger of Allāh and the last (end) of the Prophets. And Allāh is Ever
All Aware of everything. (Al-Ahzab
33:40)
HADITH:
Abu Hurairah (RA) narrated that the Messenger of
Allah (ﷺ) said: “My likeness and the likeness of the prophets before me
is the likeness of a person who built a house, made it beautiful and made it
complete, except the place of a stone in the corner. So people began to go
round and to wonder at him and say: ‘Why have you not placed this stone?’ I am
that stone and I am Khatam an-Nabiyyin (the Seal of the Prophets)".[Al-Bukhari
(3535) and Muslim (2286)]
EXAMPLE 7 -
THE ASHAA'IRA:
- They say Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) is everywhere.
-70 % of the people who claim to be Muslim are Ashaari
-They don't believe Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) Is Above His Arsh.
-They claim Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) is everywhere and you
cannot restrict Allah
-They believe Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) is everywhere with
His Dhaat = [person]
-But if you say Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) Is Everywhere with
His Knowledge, we accept that from you.
- But if you say that Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) is everywhere with
His Dhaat, we will make takfir on you,
- Because Allah (سُبْحَانَهُ
وَتَعَالَىٰ) is not in the toilet,
the brothel or the pigsty.
