REVELATION TO THE BELOVED PROPHET (saws) OTHER THAN THE QURAN

HOW REVELATION IS REVEALED?

42/51. And every man does not have the faculty that Allah should speak to him (directly) except by Revelation (He bestows upon some the holy status of Prophethood), or (should speak) from behind a veil (as He spoke to Musa [Moses] on Mount Tur of Sinai), or by sending some angel as a messenger to reveal with His permission what Allah may will. (In any case, the medium and mediation of the communication of Allah’s Word for mankind is none but the Prophet and the Messenger.) Surely, He is Most High, Most Wise…

Allah reveals His commands to His Prophets in many different ways; it can be in form of a dream, from behind the veil or through the angles..

When Sayyidina Ibrahim (as) saw himself sacrificing his son in Allah’s way, he did not think it was just a dream because he was aware that a Prophet’s dream is not a simple dream but something much deeper. It is a revelation.Note that Sayyidina Ismaeel (as) did not question his father by saying it was simply a dream as even he was aware that a Prophet’s dream is more than a dream-it is a command from Allah.

Rasululalh (saws) had a dream that he was making umrah with his companion’s, circulating the Kabah and shaving their heads. When the Prophet (saws) awoke, he told his companions of his dream and how it was a command from Allah Almighty. They all agreed to go and make umrah.

REVELATION TO THE BELOVED PROPHET (saws) OTHER THAN THE QURAN

The Qur’an is the message, and the Hadith is the explanation of the message by the Messenger himself.

As we are all aware that Rasoolallah(saws) could never do something without Allah Almighty’s approval. Rasoolallah(saws) also received other revelation from time to time which is now preserved in the form of Ahaadeeths. for eg-Allah(swt) guided the Prophet(saws) with respect to the order of the surahs.

Qiblah—There is no verse in the Quran which ever commanded Rasulullah (saws) to pray facing towards Masjid al-Aqsa! Even though Allah Almighty said that And We appointed the qiblah which ye formerly observed? 

This must mean that Allah Almighty commanded Rasulullah (saws) to pray towards Masjid al-Aqsa through a form of revelation other than the Quran, such as a dream or directly.

2/143 — In this verse Allah Almighty has informed us that He had formerly commanded the Prophet and his followers to face praying towards Masjid al Aqsa, but because of Rasulullah’s (saws) desire to pray facing towards the Kabah, Allah then commanded all Muslims to face towards the Kabah when praying.

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)
