Dars e Imam-For The Prophet
“Bismillahir Rahmannir Raheem”Al-Hamdu Lillaahi Rabbil ‘Aalameen was Salaatu was- Salaamu ‘Alaa Sayidinaa Muhammadin wa Aalihi wa Asabihi Ajma ‘een (tauheed- risalat- ahkirat and islam-iman-ihsan)
Sayyidina Umar and others related that the Prophet (ﷺ) said:“When Adam (as) committed his mistake he said, ‘O my Lord, I am asking You to forgive me for the sake of Muhammad.’ Allah said, ‘O Adam, how do you know about Muhammad?’ Adam (as) replied, ‘O my Lord, after You created me with Your Hand and breathed into me from Your spirit, I raised my head and saw written on the heights of the Throne ‘La Ilaha Illa-Allah Muhammadur Rasul-Allah’, so I understood that You would not place next to Your Name but the most beloved one of Your creation.’ Allah said, ‘O Adam, I have forgiven you, and were it not for Muhammad, I would not have created you.’” ( Hakim in his Mustadrak (2:615), Imam Bayhaqi in his Dala’il an-Nubuwwa (5:489), Tabarani in his Mu’jam al-Awsat (6:313-14 #6502) and Mu’jam as- Saghir (2:82-83), Ibn ‘Asakir (Tarikh, 7:437), and al-Ajurri in his Shari’a (p. 432).
“Were it not for you (O Muhammad), I would not have created the heavenly spheres (aflak),”Mulla ‘Ali al-Qari said in al-Asrar al-Marfu’a (#754-755)
It is also interesting to see what Ibn Taymiyya wrote in his collection of Fatwas (11:95-97):“Muhammad ﷺ is the chief (sayyid) of all the children of Adam, A mass-transmitted (mutawatir) hadith recorded by Bukhari (#4343), Muslim (#4223), Ibn Hibban (14:381, 398), Hakim (1:30, 4:573 Sahih), and many others.
the best of creation and the noblest of them in the sight of Allah. This is why some have said that “Allah created the universe due to him,” or that, “Were it not for him, He would not have created a Throne, or Kursi, or a heaven, earth, sun, or moon.” However, this is not a hadith on the authority of the Prophet…but it may be explained from a correct aspect…Since the best of the righteous of the children of Adam (as) is Muhammad (ﷺ), creating him was a desirable end of deep-seated purposeful wisdom, more than for anyone else, and hence the completion of creation and the fulfillment of perfection was attained with Muhammad ﷺ …thus it cannot be denied to say that ‘due to him all of this was created,’ or that ‘were it not for him, all this would not have been created,’ so if statements like this are thus explained according to what the Book and the Sunna indicate, then it is acceptable”.
