“I really do not want to know. In all honesty I am not interested.” It might sound harsh and a little uncaring but I believe that it is the kindest thing to say.

I suggest that nobody  should  be interested.

Why do they do it?

Some people feel they want to share their personal or other’s  secrets. Sometimes innocent but very often sinful. It does not matter to them if you plead ” I do not want to know”.

Persisting in their revelations,stubbornly, show disrespect towards Allah swt, His Messenger saw, and the believers.

Some do it to boast, some looking for support, exposing themselves to all kinds of situations if it happens  their  revelations to  fall in the wrong ears.

It was reported that Ibn ‘Umar said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say: “The believer will be brought close to his Lord until He conceals him and makes him confess his sin. Allaah will say, ‘Do you remember such and such a sin?’ The man will say, ‘Yes, I admit it.’ The Lord will say, ‘I concealed it for you in the world and I forgive you for it today.’ Then He will close up his record of good deeds. As for the others or the Kuffaar, it will be called out before the witnesses, ‘These are the ones who disbelieved in their Lord. The curse of Allaah is upon the wrongdoers.’” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 4408; Muslim, 2768).

This hadith clearly states that Allah swt  conceals and we should also conceal our secrets.

Abu Hurayrah said: I heard the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say: “All of my ummah will be forgiven except those who sin openly. It is a part of sinning openly when a man does something at night, then the following morning when Allaah has concealed his sin, he says, ‘O So and so, I did such and such last night,’ when all night his Lord has concealed him and the next morning he uncovers what Allaah had concealed.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5721; Muslim, 2990).

So If Allah swt keeps our secrets why can we not keep them ourselves?

Similarly if we happen to know of anybody ale’s secrets we must not disclose them to anybody.

Prophet Muhammad s.a.w (peace be upon him) said: “He, who relieves a hardship of this Dunia (world) for a believer, Allah will relieve (from him) a hardship of the Day of Resurrection; he who makes easy an indebted person, Allah will make it easy for him in the Dunia and the Hereafter; he who covers a Muslim (meaning his mistakes and shortcomings), Allah will cover him in the Dunia and the Hereafter …” [Sahih Muslim]

So for next time…

“I do not want to know…I am not interested. Please do not tell me  your secrets!”

Bismillah,

So my iPod was playing, had surat alQaaf playing by one of my favorite reciter. He stopped at one ayah, and said it so emotionally. I rewind-ed  it and listened to it another time, and another.

ادخلوها بسلام ذلك يوم الخلود

“Enter you therein in peace and security; this is a Day of eternal life!”
[Surat alQaaf: 34]

As humans, we can never understand this concept, but why?

The term khuld; eternity– is only referred to something that is unseen. We see the root word of  jannah means to conceal or to veil/ or to keep secret. This is the root word of Jannah (heaven), jeneen (fetus),  and jinn are all the same, something hidden and unseen– but one day will be. The word khuld, is a verb describing Paradise, and is not used to describe Jahanam (Hell). People in hell will be there khalideen fihaa (eternally in it) but the Quran never states–  it is everlasting, although paradise, is described as a place of Khuld, it itself, and the people inhibiting in it. (AlHuda peeps help out! =)

You know, as humans we say a lot of things will last forever; best friends forever, ever lasting love, ever lasting pain, ever lasting this and that, but how can we describe something that we have yet to experience? We have this content feeling that tomorrow is going to come, but subhanAllah how do we think this, when verily, the day you enter jannah is the day of rest, and the day of eternity. Now if you think of forever in the view of, jannah forever, it really hurts your head, we are just incapable of knowing the ‘3ayb. What i find more amazing, is the true believe you must attain, like the level of eman, to be able to believe in something you don’t see? That is part of Islam right, but sometimes you feel people just don’t get it. We believe in a Prophet, we have yet to meet. (inshaAllah!) and we believe in a Lord we have never seen, but we know that He azawajal is the only diety there to ever exist.

I was watching Horton Hears a Ho, and that in itself is a different topic (spilled milk, you should share your reflections right about, NOW! ) that whole movie, is just *shivers* subhanaAllah, anyhoo, the oft occurring theme of the movie, is ‘if you don’t see it, touch it, or taste it, it is not there’. That is totally against the concept of Ihsaan, and that is how i see where the beauty of islam is, that we humble our ego’s so much to believe in something that is so true, but sent 1400 years ago. wa lilahi alhamd (sorry random tangent)

But the meaning of khuld in jahanam.. what does this mean? Do the people of hell die? No…

74. Verily! Whoever comes to his Lord as a Mujrim (criminal, polytheist, disbeliever in the Oneness of Allâh and His Messengers, sinner, etc.), then surely, for him is Hell, therein he will neither die nor live. [Surat TaHa]

But what happens to them? Is it total annihilation of the mujrimoon and the hell itself, after countless years of punishment? Allahu ‘alam. This is probably one of the most controversial issues, yet.

But my point being, is that we are preparing in this life, for a secret we have yet to reveal– its like an unknown diamond in a vast never ending desert. By the mercy of Allah jalla jalaluhu, He will uncover the Paradise for us inshaAllah. Another cool thing, on the day of judgment, when the kufaar will be brought to jahanam, they will stand there waiting for the doors to open, that is part of the punishment. The uncovering of the punishment. Thats like hard-core.

But,  in paradise’s case, the jannah will already have the doors open, no more waiting no more anticipation, you reached it! And now allow your soul to enter it with salaam- with total sceren and peace. See how cool is that! The unveiling has occurred because no one who is not worthy of seeing it will be at that stage now– its only the mu’minoon.

So reflections?

The cab ride!

Twenty years ago, I drove a cab for a living. When I arrived at 2:30a.m.,the building was dark except for a single light in a ground floor window. Under these circumstances, many drivers would just honk once or twice, wait a minute, then drive away. But, I had seen too many impoverished people who depended on taxis as their only means of transportation.Unless a situation smelled of danger, I always went to the door. This passenger might be someone who needs my assistance, I reasoned to myself.So I walked to the door and knocked. “Just a minute,” answered a frail,elderly voice. I could hear something being dragged across the floor.After a long pause, the door opened.

A small woman in her 80’s stood before me. She was wearing a print dress and a pillbox hat with a veil pinned on it, like somebody out of a 1940s movie. By her side was a small nylon suitcase. The apartment looked as if no one had lived in it for years. All the furniture was covered with sheets. There were no clocks on the walls, no knickknacks or utensils on the counters. In the corner was a cardboard box filled with photos and glassware. “Would you carry my bag out to the car?” she said. I took the suitcase to the cab, then returned to assist the woman. She took my arm and we walked slowly toward the curb. She kept thanking me for my kindness. “It’s nothing,” I told her. “I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother treated.” “Oh, you’re such a good boy,” she said.

When we got in the cab, she gave me an address, then asked, “Could you drive through downtown?” “It’s not the shortest way,” Ianswered quickly. “Oh, I don’t mind,” she said. “I’m in no hurry. I’m on my way to a hospice.” I looked in the rearview mirror. Her eyes were glistening. “I don’t have any family left,” she continued. “The doctor says I don’t have very long.” I quietly reached over and shut off the meter. “What route would you like me to take?” I asked. For the next two hours, we drove through the city. She showed me the  building where she had once worked as an elevator operator. We drove through the neighborhood where she and her husband had lived when they were newlyweds. She had me pull up in front of a furniture warehouse that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl. Sometimes she’d ask me to slow in front of a particular  building or corner and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.

As the first hint of sun was creasing the horizon, she suddenly said, “I’m tired. Let’s go now.” We drove in silence to the address she had given me. It was a low building, like a small convalescent home, with a driveway that passed under a portico. Two orderlies came out to the cab as soon as we pulled up. They were solicitous and intent, watching her every move.They must have been expecting her. I opened the trunk and took the small suitcase to the door. The woman was already seated in a wheelchair.”How much do I owe you?” she asked, reaching into her purse. “Nothing,” I said. “You have to make a living,” she answered. “There are other passengers,” I responded.
Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held onto me tightly. “You gave an old woman a little moment of joy,” she said. “Thank you.” I squeezed her hand, then walked into the dim morning light. Behind me, a door shut. It was the sound of the closing of a life.

I didn’t pick up any more passengers that shift. I drove aimlessly, lost in thought. For the rest of that day, I could hardly talk. What if that woman had gotten an angry driver, or one who was impatient to end his shift? What if I had refused to take the run, or had honked once, then driven away? On a quick review, I don’t think that I have done anything more important in my life.

We’re conditioned to think that our lives revolve around great moments.But great moments often catch us unaware–beautifully wrapped in what others may consider, a small one.

In the Name of God, the Lord of Grace, the Ever Merciful

How about one on whom God’s sentence of punishment has been passed? Can you rescue those who are already in the fire? (19)

As against this, those who are God-fearing will have lofty mansions raised upon mansions high, beneath which running waters flow. This is God’s promise. Never does God fail to fulfill His promise. (20)

Have you not considered how God sends down water from the skies, and then causes it to travel through the earth to form springs? He then brings with it vegetation of different colors; and then it withers and you can see it turning yellow. In the end He causes it to crumble to dust. In all this there is indeed a reminder for those endowed with insight.

(The Throngs; Al-Zumar: 19-21)

The surah is going to tell us shortly about the reward God’s true servants shall have. However, before showing us the blessings these people enjoy in the life to come, it states that those who worshipped false deities have already reached hell. Who can save them from its fire, then? “How about one on whom God’s sentence of punishment has been passed? Can you rescue those who are already in the fire?” This address is made to the Prophet (peace be upon him). If he cannot save them from the fire, who else can?

They are pictured here as if they are already in the fire, since the sentence of punishment has been passed on them. Juxtaposed with this is the image of those who truly feared God: “As against this, those who are God-fearing will have lofty mansions raised upon mansions high, beneath which running waters flow. This is God’s promise. Never does God fail to fulfill His promise.”

The scene depicts mansions raised upon high mansions, with streams flowing below. All this contrasts with the image of layers of fire engulfing the other group from above and below. Drawing such contrasts is a characteristic of the Qur’anic style. Such is God’s promise, which will always come true.

Those Muslims who were the first to receive the Qur’an interacted with these scenes in their practical lives. To them, they were not mere promises or threats issued from afar, speaking about a distant future; they were a reality they saw and felt. Hence, they were truly influenced by them. Their lives on earth reflected the reality of the Hereafter which they felt and almost experienced while still extant in this life. It is in this way that a Muslim should receive God’s promise.

The surah then draws attention to the life of plants after rainfall, and tells us how the water courses to its end. The Qur’an often draws a comparison between the life of plants and this present life of ours, highlighting the fact that it is of short duration. It urges people with insight to reflect on this comparison. In connection with the water being poured from the skies, the surah also refers to the Qur’an, the book sent down from heaven to breathe life into people’s hearts and souls. It gives an inspiring description of the response of those whose hearts are open to it, and how they experience a mixture of awe, fear, comfort and reassurance. It then describes the respective fates of those who respond to God’s message and those whose hearts are hardened. At the end of the passage, the surah cites examples of one who worships the One God, and the one who worships multiple deities. The two cannot be equal and cannot hold the same position, in the same way as two slaves one serving one master and the other having several masters, who are in dispute with one another cannot be considered the same.

“Have you not considered how God sends down water from the skies, and then causes it to travel through the earth to form springs? He then brings with it vegetation of different colors; and then it withers and you can see it turning yellow. In the end He causes it to crumble to dust. In all this there is indeed a reminder for those endowed with insight.”

The Qur’an draws attention to a phenomenon that takes place everywhere on earth. Its familiarity, however, tends to make people overlook it. Yet it is remarkable in every step. The Qur’an directs us to look at how God’s hand directs it step by step to produce its desired effects. The water that comes down from the sky: what is it, and how does it descend? This is a remarkable phenomenon, but we tend not to reflect on it because it is so familiar. The very creation of water is indeed a miracle. We know that it comes into existence when two hydrogen atoms combine with one oxygen atom under certain conditions. Our knowledge, however, should alert us to the fact that it is God’s hand that made the universe, allowing the hydrogen and the oxygen to be available and to provide the conditions that allow them to combine and produce water, which is essential for life to emerge. In fact, without water, no life could have emerged. Thus we see how a series of measures culminated in the existence of water and the emergence of life. All this is of God’s own making. Moreover, the very fall of rain, after the creation of water, is in itself a miraculous phenomenon, brought about by the system that operates the universe and the earth, allowing the formation of water and its fall by God’s will.

The Mazgarian Exegesis or Tafsir al-Mazhari was written by Hazrat Qadi Sanaullah Panipathi who was a great scholar of the hanafi school as well as a sufi mystic. He named this exegesis after his teacher in the sufi path Hazrat Mirza Mazhar Jan-i Janan Shahid as true knowledge comes from the mystical connection that one has with his sufi teacher.

This blog is my humble efforts to translate it. I’d be translating line by line but  first I’d translate from the superb Bengali translation prepared by a team under the guidance of my own sufi teacher Hazrat Muhammad Mamunur Rashid and then second comparing it with the Arabic original. That way the translation would be very accurate but at the same time very fast.

From Allah comes all success and may he grant me success!

Hi friends

Burqa and Niqab were in use in the House of Israel; it is mentioned in Torah:

Genesis 38:14

13 And it was told Thamar that her father in law was come up to Thamnas to shear his sheep. 14 And she put off the garments of her widowhood, and took a veil*: and changing her dress, sat in the cross way, that leadeth to Thamnas: because Sela was grown up, and she had not been married to him. 15 When Juda saw her, he thought she was a harlot: for she had covered her face, lest she should be known.

*”and took a veil: and changing her dress” this has been translated in the Urdu Catholic Bible ” aur Burqah ourha aur Niqab dala” which means she put on a Burqa and put on a Niqab. May be the Arabic Bible also uses the same words, I have not checked it.

So Burqah and Niqab were in vogue in Jacob’s time. Mary also used to be dressed fully, one could go and see in a church how the Christians project her. Similarly the nuns are also dressed in full.

Quran/Islam/Muhammad followed the same good tradition of Abraham’s family.

I love Jesus and Mary as mentioned in Quran.

Thanks

Γιατί υπαρχει  ζωή αν υπάρχει θάνατος;

Ερωτηση

Γιατί  υπαρχει ζωή αν υπάρχει θάνατος;

Απαντηση

Είπατε ότι ο Θεός μας έδωσε ζωή, αλλά θέλει συνεχώς να σκεφτούμαστε το θάνατο (και ως εκ τούτου, κατά τη γνώμη σας, η ζωή ποτέ δεν ήταν απαραίτητο να ξεκινήσει ).

Στην πραγματικότητα, αυτό είναι ένα ερώτημα που πρέπει να απαντηθεί από όλες τις θρησκείες, και οχι  ιδιαίτερα απο το  Ισλάμ. Και η απάντηση είναι η ιδια η ερωτηση.

Στην αρχή, δεν υπήρχε ζωή. Ήταν ο Θεός που μας έδωσε ζωή.  Το Ισλάμ  ασχολείται με τη ζωή στην πληρότητά της, η οποία περιλαμβάνει τη ζωή σε αυτόν τον κόσμο και στον επόμενο. Αλλά είμαστε πολύ ξεχασιάρηδες και αμελειςς. Δεδομένου ότι η θρησκεία ασχολείται επισης  και με την επόμενη ζωη , έχει το καθήκον να  μας θυμίζει συνεχώς τη ζωή του που  θα έρθει. Ο καλύτερος τρόπος για να γίνει αυτό είναι να μας θυμίζει  το σημείο διέλευσης από αυτό τον κόσμο στον επομενο, το οποιο  τυχαίνει να είναι ο θάνατος.

Από την άποψη αυτή, ο θάνατος δεν είναι μια αρνητική έννοια. Φυσικά, αυτό αντιμετωπίζεται αρνητικά από αυτούς που φαντάζονται  ότι αυτή η ζωή είναι η μόνη ζωή που έχουμε. Αλλά σε εκείνους που γνωρίζουν ότι θα υπάρξει μια άλλη ζωή,  ο θάνατος είναι πραγματικά ένα σημείο μεταφορας απο  αυτή τη ζωή στην  επόμενη. Είναι μια πόρτα που ανοίγει  το δεύτερο μέρος της ανθρώπινης ζωής, και, υπό αυτήν την έννοια, ο θάνατος είναι μέρος της ζωής στην πληρότητά της.

Το Κοράνι χρησιμεύει ως υπενθύμιση για όσους  ταξιδευουν με ταχύτητα  κατά μήκος του δρόμου της ζωής, και σκεπτονται οτιαυτη η ζωη  θα είναι γαι  πάντα .

Το Κοράνι λέει αυτο που  σημαίνει:

(* Κάθε ψυχή πρέπει να γευτει τον θανατο. Στο τέλος σε Εμας  πρέπει να επανέλθουν.) * (Al-`Ankabut 29:57)

Μπορούμε να δούμε οτι  το επιχειρημα  είναι το Κοράνι να μας θυμίζει συνεχώς την πραγματικότητα του θανάτου που έχουμε μπροστά μας σε κάθε στιγμή της εγκόσμιας ζωής.

By Sajjad Shaikh

The coming of the Mahdi is one of the major signs of Judgement Day. Unlike the minor signs his appearance will signal that the Final Hour is near and that believers must ensure that they are ready to endure its trials and tribulations (fitan).

The Mahdi will come at a time when Muslims will have become disunited and where tyranny and corruption will have prevailed.The situation will be so bad that a person would wish he was not born or that if someone died he would wish that it was him.

The story of al-Mahdi, as recounted in the sunnah, is a story of hope where the struggle between Haqq (Good) and Baatil (Evil) results in the believers gaining victory over the disbelievers, where the earth is filled with peace and justice due to the just rule of al-Mahdi. It is narrated by Abu Said al-Khudri (ra) that the Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu alaihi wassalam) said: “At the end of the time of my ummah,the Mahdi will appear. Allah will grant him rain, the earth will bring forth its fruits, he will give a lot of money, cattle will increase and the ummah will become great.” (Reported by al-Haakim in his Mustadrak, 4/557-558).The story of mahdi is one that encourages the believers to work for the unity of Muslims and the justice of Islam via the establishment of the Khilafah and the application of the Shariah as the believer knows that one day the whole world will be enlightened by the light of Islam and falsehood shall vanish. But until that day comes he must take encouragement from the bashaarat (glad tidings) of the Messenger (Sallallahu alaihi wassalam) and strive and work for Islam following the Sunnah of the Messenger (Sallallahu alaihi wassalam).

So it is sad to hear sometimes that some find in the story of Mahdi an excuse and justification for inaction, taking the fatalistic view that we as an Ummah cannot, and even should not, do anything about the corrupt situation until the Mahdi appears at the end of time and establishes the Khilafah. Clearly, this is not the message the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) took when they heard the story directly from the lips of the Messenger (Sallallahu alaihi wassalam). They heard this story and they took its lessons and they worked tirelessly, first in Makkah in order to establish dar al-Islam and then after its establishment in Madinah to consolidate and extend the influence of the Islamic state.After the death of al-Mustafa (Sallallahu alaihi wassalam) the Sahabah appointed Khulafah who extended the authority of Islam even further until the light of Islam had spread to a large part of the world. So how can it be that the coming of the Mahdi has become an excuse for the resignation to the corrupt reality? Indeed, if we analyse the authentic reports about the coming of Mahdi from both a prophetic and legal point of view we can conclude the following:

The Khilafah will not be established by the Mahdi but he will be a Khaleefah coming after the death of the Khaleefah before him. In other words the Khilafah will have been established by the Muslims before the coming of the Mahdi.This can clearly be seen in the hadith narrated by Umm Salamah (ra) that the Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu alaihi wassalam) said: “Disagreement will occur at the death of a caliph and a man of the people of Medina will come flying forth to Mecca. Some of the people of Mecca will come to him, bring him out against his will and give bay’ah to him between the Rukn and the Maqam. An expeditionary force will then be sent against him from Syria but will be swallowed up in the desert between Mecca and Medina. When the people see that, the God fearing people of Syria and the best people of Iraq will come to him and swear allegiance to him between the Corner and the Maqam. Then there will arise a man of Quraysh whose maternal uncles belong to Kalb and send against them an expeditionary force which will be overcome by them, and that is the expedition of Kalb. Disappointed will be the one who does not receive the booty of Kalb. He will divide the property, and will govern the people by the Sunnah of their Prophet (peace be upon him) and establish Islam on Earth. He will remain seven years…” (Reported by at-Tabarani in al-Awsat.According to Ibn Hajar in his Majma’ az-Zawaid the transmitters in at-Tabarani’s narration are sound and authentic.)

Notice the above hadith states that disputes will take place at the death of the Khaleefah and consequently a man will come forth who after being given bay’ah as the khaleefah will declare himself to be the Mahdi. So clearly Mahdi will not establish the Khilafah Rashidah that will return as foretold in the ahadith, and as well he will not be the first Khaleefah after the destruction of the Khilafah and nor will he be the last Khaleefah. Rather, he will be a just Khaleefah who will establish the justice of Islam on earth.This is from the perspective of the account of the story as prophesised by the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wassalam).

From a shar’I or legal perspective the hadith which detail the emergence of the Mahdi do not establish any Shariah rules for the reality of Muslims of today, as they relate to a different situation when the Khilafah exists.A Hukm Shar’i or divine rule comes for a manaat (reality to which the hukm pertains) which requires a ruling, which is our current reality and not the end of time which will be signaled by the major signs of the day of judgment.A hukm shar’i essentially is a request to do an action or refrain from it whether by way of obligation (wujoob), prohibition (tahreem), encouragement (nadb) or discouragement (karaaha).Although the hadiths about the Mahdi do not request the obligation to establish the Khilafah, as they are largely ikhbari (informative) in nature and as the Khilafah will already exist when the Mahdi comes (which is why we say this reality is inapplicable), but they certainly do NOT say it is not obligatory to work for a Khilafah when it does not exist. Indeed the Shariah rules established at the time of the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wassalam) are applicable till the end of time as long as they pertain to the reality for which they came. So not only must the Muslims abide by them, so must the Mahdi and so did ‘Isa (Alaihi as salam) who came not as a Prophet but as a follower of the Shariah of Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi wassalam). So if the coming of a great Prophet like Isa (as), after the prophethood of Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi wassalam), cannot suspend the rules of the Shariah, how can the coming of the Mahdi suspend them?

As for the hukm shar’i on what to do when the Khilafah does not exist, as we see in our situation today, we need to refer to the following hadith of the Messenger (Sallallahu alaihi wassalam) as it addressed that very manaat (reality): “Whosoever dies without a bay’ah on his neck dies the death of Jahiliyyah.” (Reported by Muslim in his Sahih).This hadith clarifies by its implied meaning (mafhum) that it is not permitted for a Muslim to live without the presence of a Khaleefah as it censures the one who dies without his presence. Consequently, it becomes obligatory on the Muslim to work for the presence of a Khaleefah who will rule justly and work to remove, through only da’wah and political struggle, the Ruwaibidah that are our current despicable rulers.This is our reality today and the work to establish the Khilafah is the vital issue that the Muslims cannot neglect.

Whilst the coming of the Mahdi is an important subject in the books of hadith, it is almost as though some have taken the subject as a “get-out” clause to not work for the return of the Khilafah and the giving of bayah to the next Khaleefah.As though the mere mention of Khilafah in the time of Mahdi in some way excuses Muslims from their obligation of removing the corrupt regimes of today.Yes, there will be a Khilafah again inSh’Allah, but will we all be of the ummah that lived in darkness and did nothing to change that situation? And wait for Allah (SWT) to bring a people that loved him and He (SWT) loved.

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ مَن يَرْتَدَّ مِنكُمْ عَن دِينِهِ فَسَوْفَ يَأْتِي اللّهُ بِقَوْمٍ يُحِبُّهُمْ وَيُحِبُّونَهُ أَذِلَّةٍ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَعِزَّةٍ عَلَى الْكَافِرِينَ يُجَاهِدُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللّهِ وَلاَ يَخَافُونَ لَوْمَةَ لآئِمٍ

“O you who believe! If you ever abandon your faith, Allah will in time bring forth (instead of you) people whom he loves and who love Him – humble towards the believers, strong towards all who deny truth: [people] who strive hard in Allah’s cause, and do not fear to be censured by anyone who might censure them” [5:54]

The Spiritual War

967, a report was issued under the presidency of Lyndon B. Johnson, “The iron mountain report” which was a global research study on the possibility and desirability of peace in US. This was the era of cold war, the time when US was in the middle of Vietnam war and both US and Soviet Union providing excuses to Egypt, and Jordan that they can’t help them for the upcoming invasion on Israel (the 6 day war). How funny it seems now that the biggest opponents of cold war were practicing same diplomacy tactics when it comes to the sovereignty of Israel and dealing with Muslims. One can say that this was the right time to look for world peace and this study was conducted just for that…. or not. This report has reached the conclusion that the worst thing that can happen to United States and its national security were if world peace were to come about. It said that “if lasting peace could be achieved in the world, it would almost certainly not be in the best interest of the society because war is an essential part of the system, war is an essential part of the economy”. Period.

The above concept refers to the teachings of Leo Strauss a professor at Hebrew University of Jerusalem and who is known to be a political Zionist. It is widely believed that it was his teachings that fostered neoconservative foreign policy of George W. Bush’s administration. It was his teachings that resulted in the formation of Neo-cons or more accurately “Neo-con Evangelist Christian Zionists”. Among his famous students being Paul Wolfowitz, who was deputy secretary of defense during U.S. led Iraq war and William Galtson who was a senior advisor to President Bill Clinton on domestic policy. It is hence no surprise, that Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld who are known for orchestrating the whole Iraq war, are among the well-known neo-cons who crave for war to fill their own interests.

The concept of keeping society intact by keeping them in a fear of constant war is not just a Western doctrine. Chanakya, who was an adviser and prime minister to the first Maurya Emperor, Chandragupta and who played an important part in the foundation and governance of Maurya dynasty used to say, that in order to gain control over the people of the country, always keep them in war with your neighboring dynasty or country. Hence it is not surprising at all that India has never been on good terms with it’s neighbours and these terms don’t seem to be on their way to improvement anytime soon..

Why global peace is such a dangerous phenomenon that it used to and still threatens the mightiest of empires and countries. If we dig deeper, the idea of world peace has been reduced to symbols from ancient mythology that are the very opposite of everything that reflects positive energy. For example, the sign of world peace (the dove) is in reality a ritualistic symbol for the Illuminati. Why the most powerful and influential people of the planet are scared of global peace? This is not a matter of imposing martial law on the people of the planet, the upraising of new world order. This has nothing to do with gaining more power or taking over the world or implanting RFID chips in humans as if they are “products” tagged with a number, these are just small pieces in the bigger picture. Believe it or not, even the most ritualistic or evil of mankind wants to get enlightened with satanic power, the power of evil, the power of their satanic god “Lucifer”.

The Satan challenged ALLAH (SWT):
“O My Lord, because Thy hast put me in the wrong, I will make (wrong) fair-seeming to them on the earth and I will put them all in the wrong. Except thy servants among them, sincere and purified (by Thy Grace)” (Al Hijr: 39-40)

And the war has been waged on mankind ever since. The question here is, who was purified by the will of God and how many dedicated their lives to serving the sinister plan of Satan, who thrives on anarchy, war and mayhem. The world peace is a threat to those who are the followers of satan. This is a war of spiritual values, the religious beliefs of the good and the evil, this is the war of the verses..

President George W. Bush told French President Jacques Chirac in early 2003 that Iraq must be invaded to invoke Gog and Magog, the Bible’s satanic agents of the Apocalypse. The president of the United States, in a top-secret phone call to a major European ally, asked for French troops to join American soldiers in attacking Iraq as a mission from God. During the Iraqi invasion in 2003, their out of office statement was that “Gog and Magog are at work in the Middle East…the biblical prophecies are being fulfilled…this confrontation is willed by God … and this is necessary before the beginning of the new age”. Now all of a sudden the prophecies from the book of Ezekiel and Jeremiah (Jewish Books) are so important for them that they were willing to forget their very own New Testament which clearly tells us the downfall of their evil (read: satanic worship) in such a way that even their ultimate savior Jesus (PBUH) won’t help them.

But as Bible says:
“Seeing they see not, and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.” (Matthew 13:13)

Even Quran tells us about Zulqarnain and the wall that he built to keep Gog and Magog from spilling onto the earth. Yes we allowed them to manipulate our ancient history by replacing Zulqarnain with Alexander the Great but this is just another example of our ignorance. We might have seen the movie “Alexander the Great” and admired it but we have no fear or knowing of the second coming on Gog and Magog prophesized in Quran:

“But when Gog and Magog are let loose and they rush headlong down every height (or advantage). Then will the True Promise draw near” (Al Anbiyaa:96-97)

There is nothing significant about Horus sharing same life events as of Jesus. What most of us don’t know this Egyptian methodology of Horus is same as the methodology of Nimrod with her mother Semiramis and the miraculous birth. Horus who was also known as the “war god” or the “god of war” is associated with the falcon. The great seal of United States which features the “falcon” on one side and “pyramid” on the reverse side, strongly reinforces their dogma of following the Horus and Egyptian gods. A detailed study of events occur in the Mesopotamian region (present day Iraq, with some parts of Syria, Turkey and Iran) will give you so much more that will change your point of view on macro level. The Operation Iraqi Liberation wasn’t about just OIL. For them Iraq (former Babylon) is the land of their serpent Gods. For them they are the new leaders of the planet. They will prove what once has been joked by Ronald Reagan on international media that “What is that we need to build world peace … an attack from some outer space, an alien attack that will unite us under one supervision” (New World Order).

You may call them evil beings or satan worshippers … you can see them worshipping and presenting sacrifices to Moloch every year in July (The Bohemian Grove) and still we don’t understand why they are doing this? Nimrod was the first monarch on this earth who wanted to take over the whole world. Today Nimrod statue is present in Israel with Nimrod being one of the most famous names among its inhabitants. He was a “fire-worshipper” and he’s been idealized in a country formed on the ideology of a monotheistic religion. It’s hard to imagine what kind of evil we are dealing with and knowing no evil makes you one of them. This is what they are trying to do to keep us ignored and in return we are becoming a devil within our ownselves.

No matter how much you talk about the Holocaust of World War II, no matter how much you yell over the legality of Belfour Declaration, blame Lawrence of Arabia, Mufti Amin Al Hussaini (the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem), Anwar Saadat anyone. According to Jews, creation of Israel is the fulfillment of the prophecy written in Torah (old testament).

“I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that make mention of the Lord, keep not silence, and give Him no rest, till He establish, and till He make Jerusalem a praise in the earth”. (Isaiah 62:6, 7)
Then say to them what Adonai Elohim says: ‘I will take the people of Israel from among the nations where they have gone and gather them from every side and bring them back to their own land”. (Ezekiel 37: 21)

If we dig history further, these verses are in conflict with each other and we will notice a pattern in them which will lead us to the present time, to the world we know today. The problem is we have forgotten our history our roots, we have been put into sleep deliberately and they, they have memorized history like no one’s business.

In the “book of Daniel” comes a story about a prophet of God named Daniel who, while explaining the meaning of a dream seen by the king of Babylon, ‘Nebuchadnezzar’ prophesiezed the upcoming world events. This was the time of Jewish exile into Babylon. It was here in Babylon the Jews started learning and practicing black magic known as “Kabbalah”. It was a time for the creation of Talmud and Mishnah, both being books of law that deviates Jews from the original commandments given to Moses and which govern the present day Israel. Prophet Daniel in the year 333 BC prophesized about the upcoming empires of the world. In the end of it he prophesized that, 2300 years from then on, an “evil empire” will emerge on the face of this earth and from that point we will enter into the end of times. Do your math and you’ll find out that the year is 1967. The year in which after the end of 6 days war with Palestine, Syria, Jordan and Egypt, Israel was able to capture the Sinai desert, Golan heights, West bank and Jerusalem. It was after this war that Israel emerged on the face of the earth as a superpower : An empire founded on murder and injustice: or in the words of Prophet Danile (PBUH), an ‘evil’ empire. He also prophesized that 45 years after the creation of the evil empire, the time for the coming of Antichrist or Dajjal will be very near. Do your math again and find out which year he is referring to.

This is a war initiated by Satan himself and it is a battle for our soul. Dajjal being the final of Satan’s weapon for inflicting unbearable pain on the sons and daughters of Adam, is about to be unleashed into this world. The Quran teaches that for Nimrod came Abraham, for Pharoah came Moses and for Dajjal will come Jesus (PBUH). So, the question that we need to ask is; are we ready for this war on the ground and more importantly within ourselves? The misinterpretation and manipulation of holy scriptures is nothing but a warfare technique chosen by satan and his followers. Those who understand this know that this is in every sense a ’spiritual’ war.

By Hajjah Hanan

“That no bearer of burdens can canbear the burden of another. That man have nothing except what he strives for. That (the fruit) of his striving will soon come to sight. Then will he be rewarded with a reward complete.”(Quran 53:38-41)

Explanation of this Ayat from Tafsir

What we repeatedly think and say is what we get.

Our inner conversations, words, thoughts and feelings determine the kind of life and reality we experience. If we occupy our mind with negative thoughts and expect difficulties and problems, we will draw them into our lives. If we constantly think of success we will achieve success. If we find it difficult to think positively, affirmations can help us change the way we think!

The greatness of our human mind is that we can think and imagine what does not exist right now. We can envision situations and circumstances that are different from our current reality, and in this way we can create better situations and circumstances.

TRY SAYING SOME OF THESE POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS DAILY:

• Insha Allah, I will see stressful situations as challenges.
• Challenges bring opportunities.
• Insha Allah, I will choose to focus on the good things and not the bad.
• Insha Allah, I will deal with whatever Allah swt puts before me in the best way (with patience and prayer).
• Insha Allah I will strive to get and maintain balance in my life.
• Insha Allah, I am loveable and open to giving and receiving love.
• With Allah swt is my success.
• I have good intentions (niyyah).

Repeat the affirmations faithfully ever day and you will find over time that these concepts will re-program the way you think, turning you into a more positive person Insha’Allah.

Allah swt tells us in the Holy Quran that man gets what he strives for. We know that what we put our focus, energy and efforts on is what we ultimately strive for…..we can get there from here….just believe in the power of faith and good deeds, surely Allah swt hears the prayers of every supplicant!!

Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all of the others, including Love. One day it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all constructed boats and left. Except for Love.

Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to hold out until the last possible moment.

When the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask for help.

Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat. Love said,
“Richness, can you take me with you?”
Richness answered, “No, I can’t. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you.”

Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel. “Vanity, please help me!”
“I can’t help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat,” Vanity answered.

Sadness was close by so Love asked, “Sadness, let me go with you.”
“Oh . . . Love, I am so sad that I need to be by myself!”

Happiness passed by Love, too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her.

Suddenly, there was a voice, “Come, Love, I will take you.” It was an elder. So blessed and overjoyed, Love even forgot to ask the elder where they were going. When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way. Realizing how much was owed the elder,Love asked Knowledge, Another elder, “Who Helped me?”

“It was Time,” Knowledge answered.

“Time?” asked Love. “But why did Time help me?”

Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered, “Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is.”

AL- ‘ALEE-The Most High

It does not befit Allah to address any human being except by inspiration or from behind a veil, or He sends a messenger who then reveals by His permission whatever He wills. He is indeed Most High , All-Wise. ( Surat ash-Shura, 42:51)

Allah introduces Himself to us: Allah, the Creator of all the worlds and the sole Sovereign of the universe, is the Most High and the Possessor of the heavens, Earth, and everything in between. There is no deity but Him. High is He, Exalted above all that they associate (with Him). He is the Sovereign, the All-Powerful, and the Lord of the Ways of Ascent. Allah is Self-Sufficient, above all need.

All of the beautiful names belong to Allah, for He is the Owner of infinite beauty and infinite sublimity. A person can know Him only to the extent that He introduces Himself, and can appreciate Him through the verses of the Qur’an. In one verse, Allah describes this name in the following terms:

Allah, there is no deity but Him, the Living, the Self-Sustaining. He is not subject to drowsiness or sleep. Everything in the heavens and Earth belongs to Him. Who can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is before them and what is behind them, but they cannot grasp any of His knowledge, except for what He wills. His Footstool encompasses the heavens and Earth, and their preservation does not tire Him. He is the Most High, the Magnificent. ( Surat al-Baqara, 2:255)

We created not the heavens and the earth and all that is between them save with truth, and lo! the Hour is surely coming. So forgive, (O Muhammad), with a gracious forgiveness. (85) Lo! Thy Lord!

(87) Strain not thine eyes toward that which We cause some wedded pairs among them to enjoy, and be not grieved on their account, and lower thy wing (in tenderness) for the believers. (88)

TAFSEER TRANSLATED FROM DR. FARHAT HASHMI

THE GIFT

Allah Subhanawataala says that do not show interest in what I have given to people in pairs or otherwise because what I have given you is far more valuable and everlasting in the seven oft repeated verses (the surah Fatiha) and the Quran. There is nothing compared to the Quran. Look away from those things that attract you more than the Quran, (check yourself what attracts you more than the Quran) these things have no value compared to the word of Allah.

When Allah gives the gift of the Quran to someone then that person should avert his eyes from the worldly things and thank Allah Subhanawataala for His gift.

ADVICE TO RASOOLALLAH (PBUH) AND PEOPLE OF DAWAH

Do not feel sad at the response of these people who when called to the truth make fun of it. What happens when someone calls others to Allah’s word, usually people make fun of them. Unfortunately in Pakistan and India the people who call people to Islam are usually from the uneducated class. It is they who have held on to the Quran while the “educated class” has distanced itself from the Quran in the process of learning secular science and arts. The educated class has failed to neither recognize nor correlate what they study in secular science to what is in the Quran, primarily because those who become educated in secular Universities do not study the Quran.

Thus when the uneducated class calls people to the Quran, their repertoire is limited in what they offer in the understanding of the Quran. In addition due to their lower economic and social status the educated class does not respect them.

It is usually the poor and the disadvantaged in the societies of South East Asia who have read the Quran.

These are people who are otherwise ignorant and uneducated and thus are unable to convey the essence of Allah’s message due to the limitation of their education and knowledge……when the educated people hear the Quran as explained by these simple folks, they in their own ignorance of the Quran presume that what they are hearing is all of the Quran, being unable to understand the depths of it, reject it and make fun of it.

They listen to only the explanation given by the uneducated class regarding the Quran and are unable to recognize the limitations of the people giving the message and are thus fooled into thinking that there is something wrong with the Quran.

They fail to understand the fact that each person can only explain the word of God from the base of education and intellect endowed to him or her.

EDUCATION: THE KEY TO UNDERSTANDING THE DEPTHS OF THE QURAN

The more knowledgeable the person, the wider the breadth of education, the more he or she will understand the nuances of the Quran. However it is unfortunate that people who are advanced in their education do not take the time or interest to review reflect and understand the Quran.

WHO TO TURN ONE’S ATTENTION TO?

Allah Subhanawataala advises Prophet Muhammad pbuh that when people make fun of you about the Quran, do not feel sad, because they are ignorant of the signifiicance of what you are conveying to them.

In Surah Fatir 035.008, Allah Subhanawataala says:

Is he, then, to whom the evil of his conduct is made alluring, so that he looks upon it as good, (equal to one who is rightly guided)? For Allah leaves to stray whom He wills, and guides whom He wills. So let not thy soul go out in (vainly) sighing after them: for Allah knows well all that they do!

Allah Subhanawataala advises Prophet Muhammad where to turn his attention. He says turn your attention with kindness and affection towards the Momins. Give them the attention and be gentle with them. Ignore the arrogant people.

GUIDELINES FOR A MUSLIM LEADER FOR HIS OWN PEOPLE

Allah Subhanawataala’s command to RasoolAllah pbuh and guidelines for all Muslim leaders:

Forgive them, even though they have made mistakes, Ask forgiveness for them and keep them in the circle of Shoora (consultation) this keeps them involved in the Deen.

Characteristics of a Muslim leader with his followers should reflect the following:

1. Gentle hearted,
2. Khush Ikhlaaq (Well mannered)
3. Forgive mistakes
4. Pray to Allah for istighfaar of their mistakes,

End Tafseer

SUMMARY
these ayahs summarize some gems to remember:

Another interlude in the “Cow Posting” process…
.
The proper way to transliterate the name of the Islamic book is with a Q. Not K or C.
.
This word comprises 2 syllables, with the accent on the second one, and the A pronounced as a consonant, not a vowel.
.
Q should be used for all the “K” sounds that cannot be softened (for which the transliteration convention is “kh”).
.
The Q sound in Arabic and other Semitic languages is a deeper, guttural K that feels almost like throwing up….
.
The reason that some translators use K is because they cannot pronounce the Q consonant, which does not exist in European languages.
.
But that should not stop them from using the correct equivalent.
.
And when pronouncing the word Quran, the “U” sound should be very short, almost non-existent. Therefore, the “O” sound is not appropriate here either.
.
OK?

Ketika dunia dipenuhi dengan lambang salib dimana mana, sebahagian besar manusia yang melabel diri mereka sebagai orang Kristian menganggap itu adalah kejayaan dakwah kristianisasi seluruh dunia. Ketika salib menjadi lambang keyakinan penganut Kristian di dunia tentang lambang salib adalah sebagai tanda iman bahawa mereka meyakini Jesus dibunuh ditiang salib untuk tujuan menghapus dosa dosa keturunan, sangat sedikit yang mengetahui apa tujuan hukuman penyaliban pada 2000 tahun yang lalu.

Tidak ramai yang ada keinginan mengkaji dan mengambil tahu bahawa penyaliban tidak mampu membunuh. Tidak ada seorang manusia pun yang akan mati dengan disalib dan dipaku kaki dan tangan selama 3 jam.

Jesus bukan satu satunya manusia yang disalib pada 2000 tahun yang lalu. Bukan seorang sahaja yang disalib pada zaman itu. Penyaliban adalah hukuman terhadap seorang yang didapati bersalah pada zaman dahulu dan penyaliban adalah sebuah hukuman yang dikenakan  untuk memalukan seseorang dan keluarganya dan dibiarkan seorang yang disalib itu berhari hari dikhalayak ramai dan mati membusuk.

Tujuan penyaliban adalah, menyiksa, memalukan dan sekali gus membunuh secara perlahan lahan.

Selayaknya hukuman penyaliban tidak akan sama sekali LOJIK membunuh seseorang selama 3 jam.

Didalam Industri Hiburan WWE, beberapa superstar menggunakan lambang salib. Adakah mereka mewakili ajaran Jesus?

Sebagaimana yang saya nyatakan didalam posting saya yang lalu, banyak perkara tentang mereka yang melabel diri mereka sebagai pengikut Christ tidak menggambarkan apa yang mereka katakan dengan apa yang mereka paparkan. Mereka hanya menggunakan keyakinan yang tidak pernah dibuktikan secara ilmiah bahawa kepercayaan itu tidak lebih sekadar andaian. Dan andaian itu terbukti dengan penulisan BIBLE yang sering menggunakan penulisan pihak ketiga dan penulis BIBLE sendiri sering berada di tahap keraguan yang tidak mampu dibuktikan.

Keraguan inilah menjadikan dakwah Kristianisasi diseluruh dunia berakhir dengan perkataan

“If you believe, u can see.”

Percaya dulu, baru boleh melihat. Inilah pendekatan terakhir yang dapat dilihat didalam film film hollywood. Sekiranya anda seorang yang teliti, anda akan menemui perkataan ”I Believe” dalam banyak film film hollywood.

Antaranya Transformer, Polar Express dan banyak lagi.

Penulisan ini membawa anda berfikir, kenapa anda harus percaya sebelum anda mengetahui kebenaran sesuatu informasi?

Kebenaran tidak perlu POPULAR. Dan sememangnya POPULAR belum tentu benar.

Ingin tahu tentang ISLAM, bacalah Al-Quran. Demikianlah, ingin tahu tentang Kristian, bacalah BIBLE.

Mukjizat Muhammad adalah kemampuan luar biasa yang dimiliki nabi Muhammad untuk membuktikan kenabiannya. Dalam Islam, mukjizat terbesar Muhammad adalah Al-Qur’an. Selain itu, Muhammad juga diyakini pernah membelah bulan pada masa penyebaran Islam di Mekkah dan melakukan Isra dan Mi’raj tidak sampai satu hari. Kemampuan lain yang dimiliki Muhammad adalah kecerdasannya mengenai ilmu ketuhanan. Hal ini tidak sebanding dengan dirinya yang ummi atau buta huruf. Walau begitu, umat Islam meyakini bahwa setiap hal dalam kehidupan Muhammad adalah mukjizat. Hal itu terbukti dari banyaknya kumpulan hadits yang diceritakan para sahabat mengenai berbagai mukjizat Muhammad. Berikut ini adalah 62 mukjizat yang dimiliki nabi Muhammad :

Masa Kecil Muhammad

1. Aminah binti Wahab, ibu Muhammad pada saat mengandung Muhammad tidak pernah merasa lelah seperti wanita pada umumnya.
2. Saat melahirkan Muhammad, Aminah binti Wahab tidak merasa sakit seperti wanita sewajarnya.
3. Muhammad dilahirkan dalam keadaan sudah berkhitan.
4. Pada usia 5 bulan ia sudah pandai berjalan, usia 9 bulan ia sudah mampu berbicara dan pada usia 2 tahun ia sudah bisa dilepas bersama anak-anak Halimah yang lain untuk menggembala kambing.
5. Halimah binti Abi-Dhua’ib, ibu susuan Muhammad dapat menyusui kembali setelah sebelumnya ia dinyatakan telah kering susunya. Halimah dan suaminya pada awalnya menolak Muhammad karena yatim. Namun, karena alasan ia tidak ingin dicemooh Bani Sa’d, ia menerima Muhammad. Selama dengan Halimah, Muhammad hidup nomaden bersama Bani Sa’d di gurun Arab selama empat tahun.
6. Abdul Muthalib, kakek Muhammad menuturkan bahwa berhala yang ada di Ka’bah tiba-tiba terjatuh dalam keadaan bersujud saat kelahiran Muhammad. Ia juga menuturkan bahwa ia mendengar dinding Ka’bah berbicara, “Nabi yang dipilih telah lahir, yang akan menghancurkan orang-orang kafir, dan membersihkan dariku dari beberapa patung berhala ini, kemudian memerintahkan untuknya kepada Zat Yang Merajai Seluruh Alam Ini.”
7. Dikisahkan saat Muhammad berusia empat tahun, ia pernah dibedah perutnya oleh dua orang berbaju putih yang terakhir diketahui sebagai malaikat. Peristiwa itu terjadi di ketika Muhammad sedang bermain dengan anak-anak Bani Sa’d dari suku Badui. Setelah kejadian itu, Muhammad dikembalikan oleh Halimah kepada Aminah. Sirah Nabawiyyah, memberikan gambaran detai bahwa kedua orang itu, “membelah dadanya, mengambil jantungnya, dan membukanya untuk mengelurkan darah kotor darinya. Lalu mereka mencuci jantung dan dadanya dengan salju.” Peristiwa seperti itu juga terulang 50 tahun kemudian saat Muhammad diisra’kan ke Yerusalem lalu ke Sidratul Muntaha dari Mekkah.
8. Dikisahkan pula pada masa kecil Muhammad, ia telah dibimbing oleh Allah. Hal itu mulai tampak setelah ibu dan kakeknya meninggal. Dikisahkan bahwa Muhammad pernah diajak untuk menghadiri pesta dalam tradisi Jahiliyah, namun dalam perjalanan ke pesta ia merasa lelah dan tidur di jalan sehingga ia tidak mengikuti pesta tersebut.
9. Pendeta Bahira menuturkan bahwa ia melihat tanda-tanda kenabian pada diri Muhammad. Muhammad saat itu berusia 12 tahun sedang beristirahat di wilayah Bushra dari perjalannya untuk berdagang bersama Abu Thalib ke Syiria. Pendeta Bahira menceritakan bahwa kedatangan Muhammad saat itu diiringi dengan gumpalan awan yang menutupinya dari cahaya matahari. Ia juga sempat berdialog dengan Muhammad dan menyaksikan adanya sebuah “stempel kenabian” (tanda kenabian) di kulit punggungnya.
10. Mukjizat lain adalah Muhammad pernah memperpendek perjalanan. Kisah ini terjadi saat pulang dari Syiria. Muhammad diperintahkan Maisarah membawakan suratnya kepada Khadijah saat perjalanan masih 7 hari dari Mekkah. Namun, Muhammad sudah sampai di rumah Khadijah tidak sampai satu hari. Dalam kitab as-Sab’iyyatun fi Mawadhil Bariyyat, Allah memerintahkan pada malaikat Jibril, Mikail, dan mendung untuk membantu Muhammad. Jibril diperintahkan untuk melipat tanah yang dilalui unta Muhammad dan menjaga sisi kanannya sedangkan Mikail diperintahkan menjaga di sisi kirinya dan mendung diperintahkan menaungi Muhammad.

Malaikat Jibril adalah malaikat yang bertugas menyampaikan wahyu dan malaikat pembawa rezeki. Malaikat Jibril adalah satu dari tiga malaikat yang namanya disebut dalam Al Quran. Nama Malaikat Jibril disebut dua kali dalam Al Quran yaitu pada surat Al Baqarah ayat 97-98 dan At Tahrim ayat 4. Didalam Al Qur’an, Jibril memiliki beberapa julukan, seperti Ruh al Amin dan Ruh al Qudus (Roh Kudus), Ar-Ruh Al-Amin dan lainnya. Beginilah bentuk fisik malaikat Jibril :

Bentuk fisik Ruhul’qudus, ada tertera dalam uraian mengenai kisah nabi Muhammad kala beliau mendapat wahyu kali ke dua dan nabi menuntut untuk bertemu atau melihat rupa asli sang utusan tuhan dari langit dalam rupa yang asli atau bagaimana sesungguhnya dzat wujud Jibril tanpa rupa samar sebagaimana di berkali-kali sang utusan (ruhul’qudus) selalu nampak dalam rupa seorang manusia biasa.

Ruhul’Qudus tampak wujudnya dengan enam ratus sayap antara masyrik dan maghrib, (barat-timur) sayap dan busana kebesarannya putih laksana mutiara yang larut, dengan rupa yang begitu elok dan rupawan, dan dengan kekuatan yang dahsyat penuh mukzijat.

Katakanlah: “Barang siapa yang menjadi musuh Jibril, maka Jibril itu telah menurunkannya (Al Quran) ke dalam hatimu dengan seizin Allah; membenarkan apa (kitab-kitab) yang sebelumnya dan menjadi petunjuk serta berita gembira bagi orang-orang yang beriman. Barang siapa yang menjadi musuh Allah, malaikat-malaikat-Nya, rasul-rasul-Nya, Jibril dan Mikail, maka sesungguhnya Allah adalah musuh orang-orang kafir.

Wujud para malaikat telah dijabarkan didalam Al Qur’an ada yang memiliki sayap sebanyak 2, 3 dan 4. surah Faathir 35:1 yang berbunyi:

“Segala puji bagi Allah Pencipta langit dan bumi, Yang menjadikan malaikat sebagai utusan-utusan (untuk mengurus berbagai macam urusan) yang mempunyai sayap, masing-masing (ada yang) dua, tiga dan empat. Allah menambahkan pada ciptaan-Nya apa yang dikehendaki-Nya. Sesungguhnya Allah Maha Kuasa atas segala sesuatu. (Faathir 35:1)”

Kemudian dalam beberapa hadits dikatakan bahwa Jibril memiliki 600 sayap, Israfil memiliki 1200 sayap, dimana satu sayapnya menyamai 600 sayap Jibril dan yang terakhir dikatakan bahwa Hamalat al-’Arsy memiliki 2400 sayap dimana satu sayapnya menyamai 1200 sayap Israfil.

Wujud malaikat mustahil dapat dilihat dengan mata telanjang, karena mata manusia tercipta dari unsur dasar tanah liat kering dari lumpur hitam yang diberi bentuk tidak akan mampu melihat wujud dari malaikat yang asalnya terdiri dari cahaya, bahkan Muhammad sendiri pun disebutkan secara jelas hanya mampu melihat wujud asli dari malaikat Jibril sebanyak dua kali.

Dikatakan bahwa Muhammad telah melihat wujud asli dari Malaikat Jibril yang memiliki sayap sebanyak 600 sayap.

“Dan sesungguhnya Muhammad telah melihat Jibril itu (dalam rupanya yang asli) pada waktu yang lain, (An-Najm 53:13)”

Dalam kisah suci perjalanan Isra’ Mi’raj, sesampainya di pos perjalanan Sidratul Muntaha, Malaikat Jibril tidak sanggup lagi mendampingi Rasulullah untuk terus naik menghadap kehadirat Allah SWT;

Jibril berkata : “Aku sama sekali tidak mampu mendekati Allah, perlu 60.000 tahun lagi aku harus terbang. Itulah jarak antara aku dan Allah yang dapat aku capai. Jika aku terus juga ke atas, aku pasti hancur luluh”.

Maha Suci Allah, ternyata Malaikat Mulia Jibril AS pun tidak sampai kepada Allah SWT.

Bismillah

Why choose This Topic?

Firstly: that the concept of walaa’ and baraa’ is one of the greatest fundamentals of the Islaamic creed (‘aqeedah).

Shaykh Ahmad ibn ‘Ateeq, rahimahullaah, said:

As regards walaa’ (allegience), it is manfesting sincere love and help for Allaah, and for His Prophets, and for the Believers. Whereas baraa’ (enmity) is manifesting enmity and dissociation from falsehood and its people. And these matters are actually from the most fundamental issues of faith (eemaan).

Secondly: that the Muslim live in a very crucial time in which many of the basic and vital Islaamic concepts have either been forgotten, missunderstood or neglected; and from such basic concepts is the concept of walaa’ and baraa’. The consequence of this is that many Muslims are no longer aware of those qualities that distinguish a believer from an unbeliever; which has in turn caused the faith of many Muslims to be severley weakened and has led many of them to take the unbelievers as intimate friends and allies – imitating their manners, ways and aspirations.

Thirdly: that because the concept of walaa’ and baraa’ is so central to the meaning of: ‘laa ilaaha illallaah’, then any errors concerning it, actually means an error in understanding the very kalimah itself.

Understanding the essentials of Walaa’ and Baraa’

[1] The Meaning of ‘laa ilaaha illallaah’

Shaykhul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah, rahimahullaah, said:

So love of Allaah, and doing that which He loves and is pleased with, is the reality of laa ilaaha illallaah. Al-Haafidh al-Hakamee, rahimahullaah, said:

Imaam Ibn al-Qayyim, rahimahullaah, said in poetry form:

[2] The Implications of laa ilaaha illallaah

The kalimah implies showing walaa’ (sincere love and help) to Allaah, His Religion, His Book, His Prophets, and His righteous worshippers; as well as taking them as close allies and helpers:

It implies dissociation for those who worship other than Allaah and enmity towards all that is worshipped besides Him:

Shaykh Muhammad ibn ‘Abdul-Wahhaab, rahimahullaah, said:

It implies having love for what Allaah has prescribed:

It implies having enmity for those laws and judgements that oppose Islaam:

It implies dissociation from every religion other than Islaam:

[3] What laa ilaaha illallaah Negates and Affirms

It negates four matters:- aalihah, tawaagheet, andaad, and arbaab

[i] Aalihah: If a person directs his hopes and fears to something, believing that it can bring benefit or ward of harm in and of itself, then such things have been made into deities that are worshipped besides Allaah (aalihah). So the kalimah negates this for anything other than Allaah.

[ii] Tawaagheet: whoever is worshipped and is pleased with it, or claims having some qualities of divinity; such as claiming to have knowledge of the unseen, or deems it permissible to legislate laws in opposition to Allaah’s Laws – then such people are transgreoors who have overstepped the limits (tawaagheet).

[iii] Andaad: Whatever draws a person away from obedience to Allaah, whether family, chldren, wealth or dwelling, become rivals (andaad) to Allaah.

[iv] Arbaab: those who knowingly give verdicts in opposition to Allaah’s Laws, and are then followed in this, have been made into lords (arbaab) besides Allaah.

The kalimah also affirms four matters:-

[i]: Sincerity: That the object of our worship should be Allaah, and that all worship should be exclusively directed to Him alone (ikhlaas):

[ii]: Love: That Allaah should be loved more than anything and everything else.

[iii], [iv]: Fear and Hope: that reverential fear and hope should be for Allaah alone:

[4]: The Companions and laa ilaaha illallaah

Muhammad ibn ‘Abdul-Malik al-Musaysee said:

We were with Sufyaan ibn ‘Uyaynah in the year one-hundred and seventy, and a person asked him about faith (eemaan), so he replied: “It is statement and action.” The man asked: Does it increase and decrease? He replied: “It increases as Allaah wishes, and it decreases as Allaah wishes; to the extent that no more than the likes of this remains, [and he demonstrated with his hand].” The man asked: How should we deal with those who claim that it is statement without action?

Sufyaan replied: “This is what they used to say before the rulings and limits of eemaan were established. Indeed Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic, sent our Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam to all of mankind to tell them that none has the right to be worshipped except Allaah, and that I am the Messenger of Allaah. So when they said that, there blood and wealth would be protected, except by right, and their reckoning would be with Allaah. When Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic, was satisfied with the truthfulness of this from their hearts, He commanded the Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam to order them to Pray; so he ordered them and they did it. By Allaah! Had they not done so, then their first act would not have benefited them.

When Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic, was satisfied with the truthfulness of this from their hearts, He commanded him to order them to migrate to Madeenah; so he ordered them and they did so. By Allaah! Had they not done so, then neither their first act, nor the Prayer would have benefitted them.

When Allaah, the Most Blessed, the Most High was satisfied with the truthfulness of this from their hearts, He commanded him to order them to return to Makkah, in order to fight their [disbelieving] fathers and sons; until they said the kalimah that they had said, prayed their Prayer, and joined them in their migration. So he ordered them and they did so. By Allaah! Had they not done so, then neither their first act, nor the Prayer, nor their migration would have benefitted them.

When Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic, was satisfied with the truthfulness of this from their hearts, He commanded him to order them to migrate to perform tawaaf around the house in worship of Him, and to shave their heads out of humility; so he ordered them and they did so. By Allaah! Had they not done so, then neither their first act, nor the Prayer, nor their migration, nor their fighting their fathers would have benefitted them.

When Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic, was satisfied with the truthfulness of this from their hearts, He commanded him to order them to migrate to give charity from their wealth in order that it may purify them; so he ordered them and they did so – giving a little and alot. By Allaah! Had they not done so, then neither their first act, nor the Prayer, nor their migration, nor their fighting their fathers, nor their performing tawaaf would have benefitted them.

When Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic, was satisfied with the truthfulness of this from their hearts – which were no in harmony with the rulings and limits of eemaan, Allaah, the Mighty and Majestic, said:

Sufyaan then said: So whoever abandons any part of eemaan, then he is an unbeliever in our view. However, if he leaves it out of laziness or neglect, then we will discipline him, and he is – in our view – deficient in eemaan.. This is the Sunnah; relate it from me to whoever asks you about it.”

Shaykh Muhammad ibn ‘Abdul-Wahhaab said:

[5]: The Meaning of Walaa’ and Baraa’

Linguistically the word walaa’ implies: love, help and drawing close. And baraa’ is its opposite. Another term that is frequently used for baraa’ is the term ‘adaa (enmity).

The technical meaning of walaa and baraa:

Shaykhul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah, rahimahullaah, said:

Shaykh ‘Abdul-Lateef aalush-Shaykh, rahimahullaah, said:

So walaa and baraa are necessary consequences of the kalimah – as is proven from the Book and the Sunnah. Some of the evidences from the Book of Allaah include:-

The Prophet sallallaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam said:

Ibn ‘Abbaas radiallaahu ‘anhu said:

Shaykh ‘Abdur-Rahmaan ibn Hasan said about the above saying:

“It will not benefit them, rather it will actually harm them; just as Allaah, the Exalted, said:

Shaykh Sulaymaan ibn ‘Abdullaah, rahimahullaah, also commented:

“His saying: ‘has walaa for Allaah’s sake’ explains the necessity of loving for the sake of Allaah, which means: expressing allegience. It also indicates that mere love alone is not sufficient. Rather, it is essential that along with this love, there should be allegience, which is a necessary consequence of this love. This entails assisting, honouring, respecting and being with those whom you love inwardly and outwardly. His saying: ‘and ‘adaa for Alaah’s sake’ explains the necessity of hating for the sake of Allaah, which means: displayig enmity by actions such as jihaad against the enemies of Allaah; dissociation from them; and being far from them, both inwardly and outwardly. It indicates to the fact that mere hatred in the heart does not suffice. Rather it is essential, that along with this, there should be a manifestation of its requirements; just as Allaah, the Most High, said:

[6]: Walaa’ and Baraa’ and the Creed of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jammah

So they are considered to be brothers, along with the fact of them fighting and transgressing against each other; and the order is given to make reconciliation between them. So the Believer should consider: That it is obligatory to show allegiance to a Believer, even if he wrongs you and over-steps the limits concerning you. Whereas it is obligatory to shoe enmity to the unbeliever, even if he gives you things and shows kindness to you. Indeed Allaah sent the Messengers, and revealed the Books so that the whole way of life would be for Allaah; so that His awliyaa would be loved, His enemies would be hated, and that honour and reward would be for His awliyaa, and dishonour and punishment would be for His enemies.

If a person combines in him both good and evil; obedience and disobedience; righteousness and wickedness; Sunnah and bid’ah; then he is deserving of allegiance and reward in proportion to what he has of good, and he is deserving of enmity and punishment in proportion to what he has of evil. So it may be that a person possess what warrants both honour and dishonour, and he possess some of this and some of that. This is just like a thief that is poor; whose hand is cut off for what he has stolen, but he is given what wll satisfy his needs from the storage of charity. So this is a fundamental principle that is agreed upon by Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jamaa’ah; but is opposed by the Khawaarij, the Mu’tazilah, and those that agree with them.”

The people are of three catagories with regards to walaa and baraa:-

[i]: Those whom we should sincerely love and have allegience for; showing no enmity towards them whatsoever: The people of this catagory are the true Believers; the Prophets, the truthful ones, the martyrs, and the righteous.

[ii]: Those whom we should purely hate and have enmity for, without showing love and allegience to them: In this catagory fall the unbelievers, the mushriks, the hypocrites, the apostates and the athiests. And this is the case, even if such people are closely related:

However, this does not negate being just to them, nor treating them kindly when possible, nor giving to them their rights, nor desiring guidance for them. Rather, these things are prescribed, either as obligations or recommendations.

[iii]: Those who are to be loved and shown allegiance to from one angle, but are to be hated and shown enmity to from another angle: In this category fall the sinful and disobedient ones from amongst the Muslims. So we should love due to what they possess of faith (eemaan), and hate them for what they have of sins and disobedience to Allaah; providing such sins are not the greater type of unbelief (kufr) or shirk. Loving them requires sincerely advising them; as well as commanding them with good and forbidding them from evil.

Summing up the creed of Ahlus-Sunnah in this matter:

Shaykhul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah said:

Alliance and Enmity
by Shaykh Muhammad ibn Sâlih al-’Uthaymîn
(d. 1421 AH / n/a CE)
Translated by Abu ‘Abdis-Salam

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthmaymeen – may Allaah preserve him – said:

“Indeed alliance, and separation must be made for Allaah – the Mighty and Majestic – for whoever loves for Allaah’s Sake, hates for Allaah’s Sake, makes an alliance for Allaah’s Sake and separates for Allaah’s sake, has indeed traversed the path by which he will attain the wilaayah [close friendship] of Allaah – the Mighty and Majestic.

As for the one whose alliance, separation, love and hate is based on his desires and [impermissible] blind following, he has indeed been deprived of a lot of good. Maybe he has fallen into a severe matter for he could show enmity to a friend of Allaah – the Mighty and Majestic – and therefore makes war with Allaah, as is in the authentic hadeeth qudsee which was narrated by Bukhaaree upon the authority of Aboo Hurayrah – radi Allaahu ‘anhu – that the Messenger SAW said: “Allaah – the Mighty and Majestic – said:

Perhaps he shows love and alliance to an enemy of Allaah – the Mighty and Majestic. So he falls into great danger, as Allaah – the Exalted – says:

“You will not find a people believing in Allaah and the Last Day making friendship with those who oppose Allaah and His Messenger, even though they were their fathers, sons, brothers, or kindred.” [Quraan Sura Mujaadalah (58):22] “O you who believe! Do not take My enemies and your enemies as friends, showing affection towards them, while they have disbelieved in what has come to you of truth.” [Quraan Sura Mumtahanah (60):1] “O you who believe! Do not take as friends the people who incurred the Wrath of Allaah.” [Quraan Sura Mumtahanah (60):13].”
