Iman-Fitna Knowledge
“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)
KNOWLEDGE CANNOT GUARANTEE GUIDANCE:
The aim (Maqsad) of faith (Iman) is to establish oneness (Tauhid).
Within the Science of the Pursuit of Spirituality (Tasawwuf) all existence is one (tauhid- i- wujudi).
The Sufis and the Verifiers (muhaqqiqun) have realized Allah’s Unity within themselves. They, the ahl al-kashf wa’l wujud or ‘The People of Unveiling and Finding’, have taught us that the key to unlock the treasures of Tauhid is Risalat or the Messenger of Allah.
The aim (Maqsad) of Risalat is Iteba or ‘Following with Love’.The key to open the treasures of Iteba or ‘Following with Love’ is Ishq and Adab ( love and respect) .
Hazrath Shaykh Abd al-Qaadir al-Jilaani (ra) says that it is important that every believer observe adab under all circumstances.
Knowledge is useful, if it strengthens faith.
It implies that guidance does not depend on knowledge but it is in the power Allah Almighty. Quranic verses condemn those scholars who have gone astray.
“Those who know and those who don’t are not equal”.
We respect the scholar because we look upon him as a heir to the Prophet. The lawful heir to the Prophet is a person who is on the right path. An insolent person, who is on the wrong path, is a heir to Satan rather than the Prophet.
Respect a true scholar is to respect the Prophet, and to respect an insolent scholar is to respect the Satan.
Iblis was a distinguished scholar and yet not even a single Muslim respects him. He was known as the teacher of the angels, which implies that he used to impart knowledge to the angels. He became cursed and rejected when he refused to bow to the light of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, which was shining inthe forehead of Adam (peace be upon him)
THEY PERFORM PRAYERS BUT ARE DISBELIEVERS:
See that their prayers have been mentioned and yet they have been classified as disbelievers. Did they not offer their prayers facing the Qiblah? Also note that they used to offer their prayers in a congregation led by the most-loved, the greatest and the final Prophet Mohammad PBUH facing Qiblah: ( 9/11-12)
See that the praying and poor-due paying people have been called heads of the disbelievers and leaders of disbelief, because they assailed Islam.
Are the arrogantwords of the insolent people against Allah and His Prophet not just like assailing the faith of Islam?
“Some of those who are Jews change words from their context and say:“We hear disobey; hear you as one who hears not” and “Listen to us!”distorting with their tongues and slandering religion. If they said: “We hear and we obey: hear you, and look at us” it had been better for them, andmore upright. But Allah has cursed them for their disbelief, so the believe,not, save a few. ( 4/46)
INSULT TO PROPHET IS KUFR:
Some Jews used to interrupt Prophet Muhammad ﷺ in the courseof his speech by saying an ambiguous Arabic word ‘Ra-ina’. Allah knew that the Jews were pretending outwardly to show respect but at heart they wanted in wardly to show disrespect to the Prophet. This word, if spoken in polite manner means “listen to us”,The second possible meaning is “Iisten to us, you as one who hears not” The thirdmeaning, if the middle vowel is prolonged while speaking the word, ‘Ra-eena’, are“our shepherd”.
Since there were different possibilities of the meanings of one word,Allah has considered the ambiguity as a serious attempt to assail lslam. Be just and say that all the three meanings do not insult the personality of our Prophet so much as the words of the insolent men of today, who have said that the knowledge of the Prophet is less than Satan or that it is equal to the knowledge of madmen or animals.These insolent men have also said that Allah is a liar and yet they pretend to bevirtuous Sunni Muslims.
Imam Azam (may Allah be pleased withhim) in his book about his creed Fiqah Akbar it is stated:”All the attributes of Allah are eternal; neither somebody has created them nor they have come into existence by accident. Anybody who says that they are created or accidental or who entertains doubt or delay in this matter is a disbeliever.”
Imam Humam (may Allah be pleased with him) says in his book “Kitab-ul-Wasiya”.“Any Person who says that the Holy Quran is a created collection of words hascommitted an act of disbelief against Almighty.
Imam Abu-Hanifa ,Imam Abu Yusuf and Imam Muhammad (may Allah be pleasedwith them ) agreed that any person, who says that the Holy Quran is a created thing, is a disbeliever.
Imam Abu Yusuf (may Allah bepleased with him) says in his book “Kitab-ul-Khiraj”:-“A person who, after embracing Islam uses insulting language for Prophet Muhammad ﷺ or accuses the Prophet of telling a lie or alleges that there is anydefect in the Prophet’s character or tries inany other way to belittle the dignity of theProphet, certainly becomes a disbeliever. He has disbelieved in Allah, and his wife has gone out of his matrimonial contract.”.
“facing the Oiblah” in the opinion of the Imams stands for a person who believes in all the essentials of the Islamic faith.
Shifa Sharif, Bazaziah, Dar Radd- e-Gharoor, and Fataawa-e-Khairiah and many other books state:“All the Muslims are unanimously of the view that any person, whoshows disrespect to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), is a disbeliever. Any-body, who doubts it, is himself a disbeliever”
Majma-ul-Anhar and Durr-e-Mukhtar show as under: “Any person, who becomes a disbeliever on account of showing disrespect to a Prophet, will not beforgiven; and anybody who doubts his punishment or disbelief is himself a disbeliever”
It is mentioned in thecommentary on Fiqah Akbar:-“The correct approaches include this that the followers of Qiblah will not be called disbelievers, unless they refuse to accept the essential requirements of faith
Going against the faith —for instance treating forbidden (Haraam) as allowed (Halaal), people falsely say that Gabriel made a mistake inconveying the revelations, Insulting or lowering the status of prophets ,saying quran is a creation ,mocking sharia/law etc etc etc
Bring iman like how sahaba brought accepting everything what prophet brought. (shariat,tariqat,marifat and haqiqat) is haqq/truth from Allah.
When I want to talk to Allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
