Quote:Our Lord! and raise up in them a Messenger from among them who shall recite to them Thy communications and teach them the Book and the wisdom, and purify them; surely Thou art the Mighty, the Wise.
002.129
what is "the wisdom" the prophet was supposed to teach us? is the Quran?? notice that "The Book" is already mentioned in the verse.
Wisdom simply means wisdom. The Quran is full of wisdom.
There has already come to them recitals wherein there is (enough) to check; <i><b>delivery of Wisdom (Hikmatun Balighatun) </b></i>- but the preaching of warners profits them not.” (54:4-5)
This ayat talks about the delivery of Hikma, which is from THE BOOK OF GOD. Hence, this verse confirms that Hikma is from the Book and not from any outside sources.
Then in this verse, The God makes it clear that The Qur’an is the Hikma:
“<i><b>These are of the Wisdom (al-Hikmati), which your Lord has revealed to you</b></i>. And do not make with God another god, or you will be cast into Hell, blameworthy and regretting. (17:39).
“Alif Laam Ra. These are the Verses of the <i><b>Book of Wisdom (Kitaab al-Hakeem)” </b></i>(10:1)
“Alif Lam Mim. These are the <i><b>Verses of the Book of Wisdom</b></i>” (31:1-2)
“Ta Sin. By the <i><b>Qur’an full of Wisdom</b></i>” (36:1-2)
“We have made it a <i><b>Qur’an </b></i>in Arabic, so that you may use your Aqal. And verily <i><b>it is </b></i>in the Mother of The Book, in Our Presence, High, <i><b>Full of Wisdom” </b></i>(43:3-4)
These above Ayaat make it evident that Wisdom is an attribute of the Qur’an
Quote:And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger and goes beyond His limits, He will cause him to enter fire to abide in it, and he shall have an abasing chastisement
004.014
so if you "disobey" the messenger "Prophet Mohammed (pbuh)" you will have abasing chastisement and the question is....is it fair if we have abasing chastisement cos of disobeying the Messenger commands which we are not supposed to follow according to your logic?
Whoever obeys the Messenger, he indeed obeys Allah, and whoever turns back, so We have not sent you as a keeper over them.
Please point out the ayat which says obeying the messenger = obeying bukhari et al.
