Answer the Prophet's Call

[Muslimah]

<b>As Salam Alykom

As we all observed our two new members who I presume belong to the Qur-aneeyeen sect, we consulted among ourselves and we found that banning them or ignoring their issues is not a recommended option. But rather we decided to take the difficult one and bring the truth. If they were Muslims as they present themselves, since in the cyber world it is really hard to know which is which, they might reconsider and see the truth, if not then Alhamdulelah we served Allah, made our homework, searched for us and others to benefit. We also, in order not to retain the reward contaced a number of our members to contribute with us here. May Allah support us, expand our chests and annul a knot in our tongues ameen.Insh a Allah we are going to dedicate a thread to regularly post relevant material to the topic of Sunnah importance.


Here we are starting with the translation of a Friday Surmon delivered by Sheikh Ahmed Al Qattan:


The Messenger (Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) foretold in the authentic hadeeth that he detemines what is Halal and what is Haram just the Quran. There is a group of people who believe that only Quran contain Halal and Haram. When you talk to one of them advising that the Messenger of Allah said so, his reply would be: is this in Quran? In case your response would be no, his reaction would be this does not stand as evidence on halal or haram. Give me an Ayah from Quran stating this point. Matter of fact this is exactly what the Prophet foretold saying there will be people and men from his Ummah who come after him saying exactly what we just mentioned above. His (Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) expectation came true on all levels. A number of the leaders actually adopt this attitude saying yes Quran is between you and me, but as for Bukhari or Muslim, these are not but the books of Dervishes which were changed and distorted , thus burning the Messenger’s hadeeth. Another group of affluent people who are contained in their own desires usually reject issues made unlawful by the Messenger in case he made a detailed ruling on a point which did not come as detailed in Quran.


Just listen carefully to this great hadeeth in which the Messenger (Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) foretold about this issue and told his Ummah saying: ” The man is about [in arabic this word is ushek which indicates the closeness of the incident just as we might say the woman is about to deliver when she is in her ninth month]. He said the man from you (his Ummah) is about to site on his couch before a gathering of people stating my hadeeth and saying between you and me is the book of Allah, what we find in it as lawful we make lawful and what we find in it as unlawful we make unlawful. What was the comment of the Messenge Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam? Just listen. [What was made unlawful by the Messenger Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam is just as what Allah made unlawful.


What was made Haram by the Messenger Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam is originally made by Allah, since he never enacts legislation on his own, but rather he conveys what Allah S ays. He is a Messenger from Allah who receives from Allah through the Arch angle Jabriel. Therefore, Allah Say in Quran: "It is only an Inspiration that is inspired" (Quran 53: 4).


Based on the above mentioned which stated this fact, in order to confirm this fact, Mohamed (Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) made a number of issues, which were not included in Quran, Haram. He also fully explained and detailed other issues, on which we obey him, were not also mentioed in Quran. He taught us the number of prayer, which were not included in Quran. Allah Say Establish prayer, but how many? How many Raka`as are Fajr prayer? Or Zohr or so. Mohamed Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) taught us all this.


Allah SWT Say:" And proclaim to mankind the Hajj (pilgrimage)."(22: 37) But Mohamed Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) said:” Take your rituals after me” he also said:” Pray just as you saw me praying”.


All such details are included in hadeeth and was not in Quran. Thus just be careful not to fall into this grave mistake in which people get trapped. In case you tell someone a hadeeth, he would reply is this an authentic hadeeth that can serve as an evidence. Here lies the major threat. One who rejects authentic hadeeth making Quran only a reference in dealing with people has a description in Quran. Listen here: "He who obeys the Messenger (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم), has indeed obeyed Allah" (Quran 4:80). Therefore, one who obeys the Messenger Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) obeys Allah SAW. Allah Continues Saying:" , but he who turns away, then we have not sent you (O Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) as a watcher over them" (4:80).


It means one who turns away from your hadeeth, giving you his back or side in a sign of rejection shall not be protected, but rather shall be a subject for shaytans to hunt. Allah SWT Say:" O you who believe! Obey Allah and obey the Messenger (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم)" (Quran 4: 59). And also:" And whoever contradicts and opposes the Messenger (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم)" (Quran 4:115). The underlined part in Arabic is ushaqeq which best translates as divid with or conflicts with. It is a clear expression of one who is in a different place or side than that of the Messenger (Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) . We advice you to maintain a position where the Messenger (Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) is in order to be gathered with him in the Day of Resurrection. Do not join the wolves. Serurity is where the Messenger (Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) who is protected by Allah SWT. The Ayah expresses the status of one who conflicts with the Messenger (Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) shall be located in a different side than that of the Messenger (Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) Allah Continues in the same Ayah stating the result of such situation Saying:" after the right path has been shown clearly to him, and follows other than the believers' way. We shall keep him in the path he has chosen, and burn him in Hell - what an evil destination." Therefore, believers has a certain path coupled with specific characterists including looks, talk ..etc. Just live among the believers in order to become familiar with them. All those Ayahs simply serve the hadeeth mentioned above. Look at this Ayah:" And let those who oppose the Messenger's (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) commandment (i.e. his Sunnah legal ways, orders, acts of worship, statements, etc.) (among the sects) beware, lest some Fitnah (disbelief, trials, afflictions, earthquakes, killing, overpowered by a tyrant, etc.) befall them or a painful torment be inflicted on them." (Quran 24:63). Fitnah as explained here is one in religion as one may go to sleep a Muslim and wakes up with a hateful feeling towards the Deen. In this Ayah Allah Included women as well just to close the argument that women are execluded from this rule:" It is not for a believer, man or woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decreed a matter" (Quran 33:36).


As clearly indicated, all the previously mentioned Ayah revolve around the necessity to obey the Messenger's hadeeth. Let us listen to him while among his companions and he is telling them this amazing hadeeth. He said:" All my Ummah shall go to Jannah except one who refuses. When he said one he refuses, the companions were amazed. Who is this who is refuses to go to Jannah with the Messenger (Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam). They replied O Messenger of Allah and who refuses? He said: One who obeys me shall go to Jannah and one who disobeys me refused" (2)


Just look at the glorious Quran when it determines the responsibility of the sense. Allah SWT made the senses to be dedicated for obedience and worship as in:" And I (Allah) created not the jinns and humans except they should worship Me (Alone)" (Quran 51:56). Senses as we know include sight, hearing and of course the tongue which all must be devoted to the worship of Allah Lord of the Worlds. Allah indicates the importance of the hearing. One must use it in the proper manner as when he/she encounters rememberance, he/she must immediately assign the hearing to receive. At this point, one attains comfort and feels the light. Allah Say:" Verily, therein is indeed a reminder for him who has a heart or gives ear while he is heedful" (Quran 50:37). Allah Indicated one who has heart. Of course all people have hearts, but Allah here Is Talking about the core of belief not the blood heart. Allah Is Talking about the Divine light. Those people stated in the Ayah, what do they have? The have hearing in case the heart become absent, the hearing shall be alerted which might be affected with the advice. As the hearing starts to receive the heart may be revived. Therefore, Allah detailed this point as Verily, therein is indeed a reminder for him who has a heart or gives ear while he is heedful.


Dear brothers and sisters, the Messenger (Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) did not overlook an issue related to Halal or Haram good or evil except that he fully explained it to his Ummah in order to avoid the evil and follow the good. We may inquire who narrated this hadeeth, it is Hudhayfah Ibn Al Yaman Katem ser Rasull Allah (Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) who said: The Messenger (Salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) addressed us in a comprehensive surmon which included what ever may occur till the Hour. The surmon took the whole day. He prayed Fajr, started the Khutba, then prayerd Zohr continued the Khutba, then Asr and continued. It is a significant Khutba that contained temptations, those who set reforms, follow sects and innovations. Hudhaya, therefore, says:" One who is acknowledged about it shall be aware and one who overlooks it shall be ignorant about it.

Bism Ellah Ar Rahman Arraheem


Praise be to Allah, best prayer and peace be upon His Messenger Mohamed Ibn Abdullah. May Allah be my Aid here and always.


Due to the major importance of this issue, we prefer not to get emotional about it specially under the attitude both of u are adopting. I will simply take it that I am addressing a non muslim. I really prefer people to be open and honest no need to dress up in a garment that is not yours. U may simply come and say ok I am here to attack Islam. We see u every day in different forms we have no problem Alhamdulelah. As such Insh a Allah we will tackle the points one at a time according to our perception not yours in the way that best serves the purpose. Of course in this we are seeking Allah’s close guidance and support in order to state the correct word in the proper position.


a. will that person know who Allah is and what He has commanded him/her and mankind to do?


b. Will that person know how to take shahada?


c. will that person know how to practice righteousness/justice?


d. <b>will that person know how to call upon/pray to Allah?
</b>


Although lul has a totally different idea about salat thinking it is a more of a metaphore rather than a physical ritual. Let me take this chance Insh a Allah to explain it, not only to u, but rather to any member who happens to pass by here.


The person shall certainly know that Salat is commanded on us with certain movements and timings as well just as follows:


“And (remember) when We made the House (the Ka'bah at Makkah) a place of resort for mankind and a place of safety. And take you (people) the Maqam (place) of Ibrahim (Abraham) [or the stone on which Ibrahim (Abraham) stood while he was building the Ka'bah] as a place of prayer (for some of your prayers, e.g. two Rak'at after the Tawaf of the Ka'bah at Makkah), and We commanded Ibrahim (Abraham) and Isma'il (Ishmael) that they should purify My House (the Ka'bah at Makkah) for those who are circumambulating it, or staying (I'tikaf), <b>or bowing or prostrating themselves (there, in prayer).” (Quran 2: 125)
</b>


Note the movements mentioned here including bowing and prostration


“O Mary! "Submit yourself with obedience to your Lord (Allah, by worshipping none but Him Alone) <b>and prostrate yourself, and Irkaa'i (bow down etc.) along with Ar-Raaki'oon (those who bow down etc.)."
</b>(Quran 3:43)


note that salat in its form as we perform it, was also ordained on the preceding nations.


“When you have finished As-Salaat (the prayer - congregational), remember Allah standing, sitting down, and lying down on your sides, but when you are free from danger, perform As-Salaat (Iqaamat as Salaat). <b>Verily, the prayer is enjoined on the believers at fixed hours. “ (Quran 4:103)
</b>


“Guard strictly (five obligatory) <b>AsSalawat (the prayers) especially the middle Salat (i.e. the best prayer 'Asr).
</b>And stand before Allah with obedience [and do not speak to others during the Salat (prayers)].” (Quran 2:238)


A clear indication of a necessity to establish and perform Salat including a middle one of course in timing


" And those who guard their Salat (prayers) well,” (Quran 70:34)


But what is more important is that according to the following Ayahs he/she will also realize the importance of the role the Messenger plays in our life, thus, he will Insh a Allah search to know more about the second pillar in Islam which is Salat, till he finds out he /she will be execused.:


<b>“The only saying of the faithful believers, when they are called to Allah (His Words, the Qur'an) and His Messenger, to judge between them, is that they say: "We hear and we obey."
</b> And such are the prosperous ones (who will live forever in Paradise).* And whosoever obeys Allah and His Messenger, fears Allah, and keeps his duty (to Him), such are the successful ones.” (Quran 24:51-52)


“<b>And perform As­Salat (Iqamat­as­Salat), and give Zakat and obey the Messenger
</b>(Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) that you may receive mercy (from Allah)." Quran 24:56)


This Ayah not only confirms how important to obey the Messenger but also settles the confusion of Lul regarding Zakat. It is not a metaphoric purification, although the ritual does bear this sense. It purifies our money. But as clearly stated in the Ayah saying atou which means give. Therefore something will be giving. What would be given is detailed through the Messenger salla Allah a`lyhee wa sallam.


“Make not the calling of the Messenger (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) among you as your calling of one another. Allah knows those of you who slip away under shelter (of some excuse without taking the permission to leave, from the Messenger). And let those who oppose the Messenger's (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) commandment (i.e. his Sunnah legal ways, orders, acts of worship, statements, etc.) (among the sects) beware, lest some Fitnah (disbelief, trials, afflictions, earthquakes, killing, overpowered by a tyrant, etc.) befall them or a painful torment be inflicted on them.” (Quran 24: 63)


If u r unable to understand after all this, then u don’t want to understand. As I stated above Insh aAllah we are dedicating this effort for any member who needs to understand such is s ue.


Again I think it is better to lower the challenging tone, we face non Muslims everyday, and such attitude does not take anywhere.


Alhamdulelah Lord of the World and prayer and peace be upon His Messenger

Still bringing Ayah's from Quran explaining or more to say confirming that Allah Ordained Salat as ritual and 2nd pillar of Islam. One who abandons Salat out of denial is NOT a Muslim.


"And when you (Muslims) travel in the land, <b>there is no sin on you if you shorten your Salaat (prayer) i</b>f you fear that the disbelievers may attack you, verily, the disbelievers are ever unto you open enemies." (Quran 4:101)


One understands from this Ayah that in normal cases Salat shall be performed in a longer form.


"<b>When you (O Messenger Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) are among them, and lead them in As-Salaat (the prayer), let </b>one party of them stand up [in Salaat (prayer)] with you taking their arms with them; <b>when they finish their prostrations, </b>let them take their positions in the rear and let the other party come up which has not yet prayed, and let them pray with you taking all the precautions and bearing arms. Those who disbelieve wish, if you were negligent of your arms and your baggage, to attack you in a single rush, but there is no sin on you if you put away your arms because of the inconvenience of rain or because you are ill, but take every precaution for yourselves. Verily, Allah has prepared a humiliating torment for the disbelievers." (Quran 4:102)


Allah u Akbar I dont think we need even to comment on this Ayah Sobhan Allah. This is Salat u khawf (fear) which is performed in case of a war.


:Then when the (Jumu'ah) Salat (prayer) is finished, you may disperse through the land, and seek the Bounty of Allah (by working, etc.), and remember Allah much, that you may be successful" (Quran 62:10)

In this post we are Insh aAllah taking a totally different approach, the anti sunnah group calls it a total fabrication or whatever, the end result is they dont see it authnticated and thus they dont follow it including prayer and other. Just as we verify to non Muslims the authinticity of Quran. Insh a Allah in this post we will verify the authinticity of hadeeth which was never uttered from the desire of our beloved Prophet, teacher and leader Mohamed salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam


<b>Just ponder and reflect, ask yourself who taught this illiterate man 1400 such well prepared diet for us to follow and benefit of course.
</b>


I found this very interesting article on the diet of our beloved Messenger salla Allah a`alyhe wa sallam


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Diet of the Messenger sallah Allah a`alyhee wa sallam is a Divine miracle:


Modern medicine, during the last two decades, began to return to the original trend after a long time of fully depending on chemical pharmaceutical. Due to the failure of pharmaceutical to prove totally capable of treating many illness, Prophet's medicine coupled with his diet, then became a focal of attraction. Strange enough that Western countries pioneered towards studying the medicine and diet taken after the Messenger (Sallah Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) which normally made them look into relevant contents of Quran and Sunnah which is guiding mankind to their best even regarding food.


Scientists discovered in Quran and hadeeth several scientific facts that they categorized under Prophet's miracle. When compared to hadeeth and the use of the Divine diet, scientific findings were amazing.


Diet of the Messenger salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam and protective medicine:


The Messenger salla Allah A`alyhee wa sallam, after completing prayer and dhikr, used to drink a glass of water in which a spoon of honey is well diluted. It was scientifically proven that water gains characteristics of the diluted substance in other words water particles are ordered according to the honey's particles.


Narrated that the Messenger (PAPBUH) said: " I advice you with honey drink" which proves the major benefit of taking honey diluted in water. Modern medicine discovered that honey drink helps alert the digestive system to function in a better manner by increasing the movement cycle of intestines. Honey then serves as a complete nutritious substance due to what it contains of monosacharides, which are not subject to digest. Other compositions, namely; triphosphate adonizine, which is called the muscles fuel, is then generated. Actually this operation motivated scientists to run a chemical operation on water to gain power calling it water treatment. Water gains characteristics of whatever substance added to it. Strange enough that medicine is more advanced in Europe, which is based on the methodology of Prophet's medicine. Using this trend helps to extend the average age.


Modern medicine continues to search in the secrets of the Messenger's diet and how this diet was not haphazardly determined. But it followed well-established scientific rules which modern science is still searching.


Breakfast of the Messenger (PAPBUH):


After he takes the honey drink, he leans for a while performing the abandoned worship, which is pondering upon obeying Allah. After praying Duha, he eats 7 dates dipped in a glass of milk. In a hadeeth narrated by Abu Na`aeem, he mentioned the number 7 saying:" One who eats in the morning seven dates, shall not be affected on that day with poison or witchcraft".


According to scientific evidences, in case of intoxication, the performance level of a certain enzyme increases. It is well noted that the level of that enzyme decreases to the normal rates when one is on 7 dates every morning for one month. Sobhan Allah. This is of the Divine miracles that Allah gave only to His Messenger (PAPBUH).


Of the 7 date related phenomenon proved by modern science, is the telepathy. Scholars of King Abdul Azeez and Cairo Universities ran researches which revealed the same findings. Workers working in mines and involved in lead related activities and other poisonous substances are safe when they eat 7 dates in the morning. Poison effects completely stops. Actually the Jewish scholar Andrea Will (who embraced Islam later on) published in a research titled (7 dates are enough) proofs about intoxication treatment through date eating, He further advises those who are subject to intoxication by virtue of their profession to take them on a daily basis. This fact is also proved through the hadeeth reported by Termidhi that " Dates are from Jannah and contains treatment from poison).


As for the evidence from Quran we find the Ayah:" And shake the trunk of date-palm towards you, it will let fall fresh ripe-dates upon you" (Quran 19:25). Andrea Will supported this fact in his book (Model Health) citing the hadeeth of the Messenger (PAPBUH) around the major benefits of dates for human health.


Diet of the Messenger (PAPBUH):


After taking the breakfast, he continues his activities until Asr prayer. Then he takes the quantity of a full spoon of olive oil mixed with two drops of vinegar and eat it with a hand size of barely bread.


A number of Quran Ayahs stressed benefits of olive oil as in:" lit from a blessed tree, an olive, neither of the east (i.e. neither it gets sun-rays only in the morning) nor of the west (i.e. nor it gets sun-rays only in the afternoon, but it is exposed to the sun all day long), whose oil would almost glow forth" (Quran 24:35) and also:" By the fig, and the olive." (Quran 95:1). Modern science proved that using olive oil treated a number of malignant tumors such as that of the bones. Allah Say:" And a tree (olive) that springs forth from Mount Sinai, that grows (produces) oil, and (it is a) relish for the eaters." (Quran 23:20). However, the word relish in Arabic is written sebgh which best translates as dye. The word sebgh here as best explained in Tafseer by most of the scholars that it dyes the body. Modern medicine supported the fact that olive oil contains unsaturated fat acids. Andrea Well states that according to experiment, olive oil dissolves fat by virtue of Allah's Capability. Imagine fat dissolves fat. Olive oil contains a large amount of Omega 3, which treats fat.


It was also proven that olive oil protects against Alzheimer’s and heart diseases. Andrea managed to prove how olive oil penetrated into malignant cells and treats it. He described the word Sebgh that came in Quran as the chromosomes. He further explained that malignant diseases causes a space to happen inside the one cell while olive oil contracts this space and helps to maintain space between cells too. This where Allah's Capability is well manifested in selecting the proper diet of His Messenger (PAPBUH).


Modern science also revealed that vinegar generated from digesting carbohydrates is called Acitoestate while the middle compound of the fat, carbohydrate and protein, remain vinegar. When one takes vinegar, it compensates the deficiency of any of those substances. Also it was revealed that olive oil mixed with vinegar work together to dissolve high-density fat which coats the veins. For this scientists called this mix (olive oil and vinegar) veins bulldozer since it cleans them.


Vinegar does not only dissolve fat, but also changes the dissolved fat into simple ones that could be included into metabolism for the body to benefit.


After that the Messenger would eat a red carrot which grew in the Arab peninsula. Modern science proved that it contains anti oxides, which depresses causes of cancer. It was also proved that carrot helps to increase the DNA and other genetic factors. Sobhan Allah. For this, many doctors advice eating carrots as a source of Vitamin A and refresh genetic factors in the DNA. Carrot delays white hair to grow.


Prophet's dinner:


After completing Esha prayer and before performing late night prayer, he used to eat his third meal the dinner. It contained sour milk with barely bread. Modern science also proved that sour milk when taken for dinner helps dissolving the remaining waste in the colon, break into simple compounds which can be of great benefit.


Recent studies were made by a number of nutrition experts in addition to those made in Cairo and King Abdel Azeez Universities revealed benefits of sour milk when taken in the evening. It helps break the unwanted sediments so that the body may benefit. Matter of fact this is a proof of the miraculous Prophet's teaching. Taking sour milk for dinner is important and it is an easily digested meal that helps the digestive system works better. Many doctors for this advice their patients to eat sour milk for dinner. It helps relief the colon and prevents stomachache. Through such medical information, findings of the study made by Dr. Abdul Baset Sayed Mohamed and published in his book (Treatment using the Prophet’s diet). In his book Sayed explained that most of the Prophet’s diet was beneficial for two reasons. One the nutritious value given to the body and proved by modern science. The other was preventive measurement against diseases. If it proves anything, it proves the Divine miracle of selecting the diet of His Messenger.


At last we conclude that if we ponder carefully we will find that the Prophet (PAPBUH) was the best role model in all aspects of life either food, drinks or clothes. He was a role model and teacher for mankind. Scholars were challenged with his knowledge. While his eloquence exceeded by far well established authors. When he speaks, he speaks only the truth and never speaks of his own desires.


If we carefully study Prophet’s hadeeth about food we will find that he told us thousands of years ago about what modern science was incapable of finding. A number of researchers in this field composed many books containing secrets of the Prophet’s diet and preventive medicine using the Sunnah such as Prophetic Medicine, Reflections upon the Messenger’s life and other books which analyzed this aspect of our beloved Prophet Mohamed Ibn Abudllah Sallah Allah a`alyhee wa sallam.


Modern science shall continue to explore these Prophetic secrets until the hour.

For the past decade enemies of Islam from all sects tried to slander Islam trying to prove that it has been spread by force and sword. Alhamdulilah the history of Islam is clear and bright, in spite of their devious plots and their cruel strive to terminate the light of Islam. Islam is now spreading without force or sword, peacefully all over the world, and we find that most of those embracing Islam are taking the path of the Quran and Sunnah, which is a proof that this is the true and righteous PATH. Now when those devious sects found out that it is difficult to fight Islam and prove that it is wrong (from their own point of view) they resorted to other plots, fighting Islam from within. Such sects are, Al-Naqshabandiya, Al-Ahmadiyah, Sufism, The Islam nation, and so on. Another dangerous group is the one lead by Rashad Khaleefa, who claims to have translated the Quran by numbering, and also denying any Ahadeeth or any following of the Prophet (PBUH), The danger of such groups lies in the fact that while wearing the cloak of Islam are striving to destroy it from within, in a vain attempt to extinguish the light of Islam, and divert the weak Muslims from their only true religion, and turning away those who are searching for Allah's Light. Such groups have been already widely exposed in different sects of media. Their threat has lessened and their falsity is revealed. So now what happens? The hidden enemies who are using such groups as puppets in their hands need a new weapon to fight with, what do they do? Claiming that they are Muslims, believing only in Qur'ân, translating it the way they desire, and refuting the Sunnah of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH), claiming that all his Ahadeeth are lies and not true and that they will believe only what is in Qur'ân. Such groups also are the ones who are calling for unity of religions; this is a very dangerous trap that so many ignorant Muslims fall into.


For the past weeks we have seen some of these followers on this forum, fighting defying and trying to prove such claims, trying as well to teach Arabs their own language and defying with ridiculous claims. Any man or woman with a right intellect will refuse what they are claiming. The are being like parrots, copying what they find on such sites, or what their leaders tell them to say, and all that because it suits their worldly whims, claiming: No Shahadateen, No Sunnah, No Hijab, No Salat, No Zakat, no Hajj, singing is Halal, stoning adulterous and amputating the thieves hand is a barbarous act, forgetting that Allâh said in His Holy Qur'ân:


Bismillah Al-Rahman Al-Raheem:


<b></b>



38. Cut off (from the wrist joint) the (right) hand of the thief, male or female, as a recompense for that which they committed, a punishment by way of example from Allâh. And Allâh is AllPowerful, AllWise. 4, Al-Mae'da


So if all the above is non obligatory, then where is Islam, there is no Islam. No Islam without Shahadateen, or Sunnah, or Hijab, or Salat, or Zakat or Hajj. Now realizing the fierce fight we are facing, and the threat of such sects and groups, we have undertaken the task of replying and refuting all their claims and falsity. Now this sect is trying to refute The Sunnah which is merely the Ahadeeth and orders of Prophet Mohammad, which most of it is the explanation and translation of The Holy Qur'ân, also the Sunnah teaches us the reason of the revelation of the Ayah, how to read the Qur'ân, and many other things in life that cannot be mentioned in the Qur'ân by Allâh The Exalted. Now if the Sunnah is refuted and proven that it is a lie, then they will turn to refute Qur'ân then they will prove (in their own sick thoughts) that Islam is a false religion, hence they will be victorious and all humanity will be like them.


Bismillah Al-Rahman Al-Raheem:


<b></b>



109. Many of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) wish that if they could turn you away as disbelievers after you have believed, out of envy from their ownselves, even, after the truth (that Muhammad Peace be upon him is Allâh's Messenger) has become manifest unto them. But forgive and overlook, till Allâh brings His Command. Verily, Allâh is Able to do all things.


120. Never will the Jews nor the Christians be pleased with you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him) till you follow their religion. Say: "Verily, the Guidance of Allâh (i.e. Islâmic Monotheism) that is the (only) Guidance. And if you (O Muhammad Peace be upon him) were to follow their (Jews and Christians) desires after what you have received of Knowledge (i.e. the Qur'ân), then you would have against Allâh neither any Walî (protector or guardian) nor any helper. 2, Al-Baqara

69. A party of the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians) wish to lead you astray. But they shall not lead astray anyone except themselves, and they perceive not. 3, Al-'Imran.


Now because of their ignorance in Qur'ân, they do not know that the Sunnah is part of the Quran, it goes alongside with it, and that it is orders from Allah Subhanahu WA T'ala. Claiming that they studied Arabic or still studying and that they are the ones who are capable to translate the Holy Qur'ân, forgetting very important issues:


1.The Qur'ân is the word of Allah that was revealed to Prophet Mohammed by the Angel Gabriel.


2.The Qur'ân is in eloquent Arabic language, in which Allah defied those eloquent Arabic speakers to bring one ayah the same and they failed. And the Arabs are the only ones who know the beauty of The Qur'ân's eloquence and rhetoric.


3.That the only person who is capable of translating The Holy Qur'ân is Prophet Mohammad himself, because he is the messenger of Allah and only he will have the honor of translating The Word of Allah, and that is the Sunnah. And anyone who refutes the Sunnah, claiming that he is capable of translating the Qur'ân , then he is claiming to be a prophet which contradicts with the Qur'ân :


Bismillah Al-Rahman Al-Raheem:


<b></b>



40. Muhammad (PBUH ) is not the father of any man among you, but he is the Messenger of Allâh and the last (end) of the Prophets. And Allâh is Ever AllAware of everything. 3, Al-Ahzab


4. That they are claiming that Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) and his companions and all the Islamic community was a mute community that never uttered a word. Did the Prophet not speak a word with the sahabas except Qur'ân, did he not speak at all, did he not order his army to fight, did he not order his family or speak to them, what kind f a community or society is that, that will live mute all its life. Now they will say that he did not order them to write the Ahadeeth, that was true at the beginning, he said speak of my Ahadeeth but not write, he was afraid that it will be mixed with the Qur'ân, then after in a later time he approved of writing after the Qur'ân was complete.


The Quran is complete; it is the true word of Allah Subhanahu Wa ta'ala, but as said in the holy Quran:


Bismillah Al-Rahman Al-Raheem:


<b></b>



109. Say (O Muhammad to mankind). "If the sea were ink for (writing) the Words of my Lord, surely, the sea would be exhausted before the Words of my Lord would be finished, even if we brought (another sea) like it for its aid.". 18, Al-Kahf


27. And if all the trees on the earth were pens and the sea (were ink wherewith to write), with seven seas behind it to add to its (supply), yet the Words of Allâh would not be exhausted. Verily, Allâh is AllMighty, AllWise. 31, Luqman


The inimitability of the Holy Quran lies in Its Eloquent language, short and conveying verses, and with such short ayahs we find vast orders and answers, for example:


Bismillah Al-Rahman Al-Raheem


1)


<b></b>



38. And the sun runs on its fixed course for a term (appointed). That is the Decree of the All-Mighty, the All-Knowing.


39. And the moon, We have measured for it mansions (to traverse) till it returns like the old dried curved date stalk.


40. It is not for the sun to overtake the moon, nor does the night outstrip the day. They all float, each in an orbit. 36, Yaseen


2)


<b></b>



13. And have made (therein) a shinning lamp (sun). <b> In Arabic Serajan Wahaja: this word means to glow in blaze or incandescent flame.</b>
78, Al-Naba'a

[url=http://lunar.arc.nasa.gov/science/phases.htm]http://lunar.arc.nasa.gov/science/phases.htm


Now if u go to these links, u will read and see the studies, the years, and the effort that took the scientists to discover facts about the sun and how it is flaming in blaze and how that each of the sun and moon runs in its own orbit. Such facts are mentioned in one conveying ayah. So here lies the glory of The Holy Quran one verse or ayah contains a whole integrated science. Allah Subhanahu Wa ta'ala gave us brains to think and He favored us with this brain so that we will look around us and think of his creation and discover secrets of the earth and universe that will prove of his existence:


Bismillah Al-Rahman Al-Raheem:


<b></b>



28. And of men and AdDawâb (moving living creatures, beasts, etc.), and cattle, in like manner of various colours. It is only those who have knowledge among His slaves that fear Allâh. Verily, Allâh is AllMighty, OftForgivin. 35, Surat Fater.


Those who have knowledge in the Quran, understand it and obey every order in it are those who fear Allah. We find now many scientists embrace Islam, because they find in it all the studies and theories and discoveries that they have studied all their life are in a verse or two in The Quran and ahadeeth of the Prophet(PBUH). The Quran is the book of religion, science, social life, governing, manners, psychology, medicine and so on, and the Ahadeeth of the Prophet is the translator and explainer of Allah's word. After this I think no one now can say that there are matters not mentioned in Quran.


Now those who are refuting the Sunnah are referring to ayahs in Quran about Allah's oneness and that we make companions with him by obeying our scholars who wrote false Ahadeeth of the Prophet. They are the ones who are manipulating the meanings and giving themselves the right to translate the Holy Book word by word, WHO DARES DO THAT? Only those who have science of The Quran and Ahadeeth of the Prophet are the ones who are capable of this, and they study such sciences in colleges and take master degrees and doctrines in Quran and Sunnah. Those are the ones who have knowledge and fear Allah. They will not make any fatwa from their own nafs, if they want to make a statement or answer a question they go back to Quran and Sunnah, if they do not find it then they answer by Ijtehad, and this Ijtehad also not any scientist can do, there are special scholars for these matters and when they make ijtehad they make it by juristic reasoning by analogy, referring also to Quran and Sunnah, and not like others who are trying to make a new legislations in Islam. The scientists are the inheritance of the Prophets, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala mentioned them in the Holy Quran:


Bismillah Al-Rahman Al-Raheem:


<b></b>



190. Verily! In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and in the alternation of night and day, there are indeed signs for men of understanding.


191. Those who remember Allâh (always, and in prayers) standing, sitting, and lying down on their sides, and think deeply about the creation of the heavens and the earth, (saying): "Our Lord! You have not created (all) this without purpose, glory to You! (Exalted be You above all that they associate with You as partners). Give us salvation from the torment of the Fire. 3, Al-Imran


<b></b>



7. And We sent not before you but men to whom We revealed. So ask the people of the Reminder if you do not know.) (8. And We did not place them in bodies that did not eat food, nor were they immortals.) (9. Then We fulfilled to them the promise. So We saved them and those whom We willed, but We destroyed Al-Musrifin.) 7, Al-Anbiya


<b></b>



7. It is He Who has sent down to you (Muhammad ) the Book (this Qur'ân). In it are Verses that are entirely clear, they are the foundations of the Book [and those are the Verses of Al-Ahkâm (commandments, etc.), Al-Farâ'id (obligatory duties) and Al-Hudud (legal laws for the punishment of thieves, adulterers, etc.)]; and others not entirely clear. So as for those in whose hearts there is a deviation (from the truth) they follow that which is not entirely clear thereof, seeking Al-Fitnah (polytheism and trials, etc.), and seeking for its hidden meanings, but none knows its hidden meanings save Allâh. And those who are firmly grounded in knowledge say: "We believe in it; the whole of it (clear and unclear Verses) are from our Lord." And none receive admonition except men of understanding. (Tafsir At-Tabarî).


3, Al-Imran


Now icon put a few questions on this board and kept repeating them, trying to refute the Sunnah and manipulating the words of The Holy Quran according to his own whims, which is a very serious matter. Now to answer these questions everyone should know that our two main sources are The Quran and Sunnah, both are related, if you do agree to that then all your questions will be answered, then if you do not believe then know that you have lost this world and the hereafter:


Bismillah Al-Rahman Al-Raheem


<b></b>



64. Say (O Muhammad ): "O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians): Come to a word that is just between us and you, that we worship none but Allâh, and that we associate no partners with Him, and that none of us shall take others as lords besides Allâh. Then, if they turn away, say: "Bear witness that we are Muslims."


65. O people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians)! Why do you dispute about Ibrâhim (Abraham), while the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel) were not revealed till after him? Have you then no sense?


66. Verily, you are those who have disputed about that of which you have knowledge. Why do you then dispute concerning that which you have no knowledge? It is Allâh Who knows, and you know not. 3,Al-Imran


So our sources will be The Holy Quran Along with the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), and I will speak about the Sciences in the Quran and its branches and other sciences and books, I hope my brothers and sisters join if they like to add or if I missed something, after all we are only human beings, we may forget or make a mistake, and only Allah is The AllKnower May Allah The AllMighty be our Assistance and Guidance to what He Loves and Pleases. If I am right, it is by aid from Allah, if I am wrong, from my mistake and ignorance, and Allah Knows best.


Bismillah Al-Rahman Al-Raheem


<b>143. Thus We have made you [true Muslims - real believers of Islâmic Monotheism, true followers of Prophet Muhammad and his Sunnah (legal ways)], a Wasat (just) (and the best) nation, that you be witnesses over mankind and the Messenger (Muhammad ) be a witness over you. And We made the Qiblah (prayer direction towards Jerusalem) which you used to face, only to test those who followed the Messenger (Muhammad ) from those who would turn on their heels (i.e. disobey the Messenger). Indeed it was great (heavy) except for those whom Allâh guided. And Allâh would never make your faith (prayers) to be lost (i.e. your prayers offered towards Jerusalem). Truly, Allâh is full of kindness, the Most Merciful towards mankind.</b>



2, Surat Al-Baqara

[Muslimah]

Bismellah
Praise be to Allah, prayer and peace be upon His Messenger salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam

Insh aAllah we will take another approach into this important topic. Let us look at some of the hadeeth of the Prophet salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam and how they correspond to the current situation. In other words how would he explain in details issues and situations (in hadeethc) that came true after 1400 years if it was not also from Allah.

Narrated Abdullah Ibn Omar that the Messenger salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam came to us saying O people of Muhajereen (immigrants) there are five issues if you will be inflicted with them and I seek refuge to Allah that you would not be available when they occur, <b>never fornication would spread among people till they commit it publicly except that plague and other unprecedented diseases which were never experienced before among their predecessors would spread and prevail
</b>, never people would cheat while weighting and scaling except that they suffer tough times, food shortage and unjust rulers, never people refrain from paying Zakat for their money except that they would be denied rain from sky and if it was not for animals they would have never received rain, never people violate the covenant of Allah and His Messenger except that Allah Sends on them an enemy from outside to take part of what is in their hands, and when their rulers don’t rule with the book of Allah and start selecting from what Allah revealed except that Allah instills their torture among them.” (reported by Ibn Majeh)


Sobhan Allah, just look at the items one by one specially the first issue which is spread of fornication. Isnt this the exact current situation? Don’t u see (astaghferu Allah) couples having sex in public parks? What was the consequence of this? Didn’t AIDS (HIV) appear some 2 decades ago being an unprecedented and incurable disease at the same time? Sobhan Allah, how would the Messenger salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam foretell this if it was not conveyed to him from Allah S&T?

Just reflect on the rest of the hadeeth and compare to the situation of the Muslim Ummah, unfortunately all the problems that are contained in this hadeeth are quite apparent today. Yes we say unfortunately, but if this didn’t happen, people like the Quraneyeen would have had a strong argument. But certainly Allah the All Knowing Made it a point to provide a counter argument for this. Just look at the unjust rulers over almost all the Muslim nations, look at Muslims fighting each other la hawla wala qowata illa billah. It is all the outcome of what Muslims committed and a strong evidence that the hadeeth of the Messenger salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam is part and parcel of Islam.

[Muslimah]

More analysis of the same hadeeth:


<b>never people violate the covenant of Allah and His Messenger
</b>except that <b>Allah Sends on them an enemy from outside to take part of what is in their hands</b>
, and when their rulers don’t rule with the book of Allah and start selecting from what Allah
revealed except that Allah instills their torture among them.”


Isnt the US taking part of what is in our hands, it is a clear indication that Muslims are not giving out their Zakah, la hawla wala qowata ila billah, we keep making dua against US trying to remedy the symptom, we need to tackle the origin of the problem.


Obviously also they are not ruling by Allah's book as we can see Muslims are always disputing Astghfer Allah


Now how can the Messenger (salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) predict all that unless Allah inspired him to say so and warn us quite ahead

[Muslimah]

as salam alykom


More on the same theme:


Just ponder on this hadeeth:


Ahmad relates in a hadeeth narrated by Abu Hurairah, radhiallahu `anhu, that the Prophet, sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam said, "The Hour will not happen until knowledge is taken out, time passes quickly, <b>earthquakes increase in numb
</b>er, tribulations (fitan) appear, and al-Harj increases in number." It was said, "<b>What is al-Harj, O Rasoolullah?" He said, "Al Qatl, al Qatl (Killing)".
</b>(Bukhar)


Cannt u see, earthquakes are increasing in numbers and frequency. Last week one occured with massive destruction, last month too.


How will the Messenger or whoever compiled the hadeeth after him make up this? On the other hand, yes killing even for no reason is occuring, we dont like it, but if didnt happen, hadeeth of the Messenger wouldnt be true


The Truthful sying is sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam,


How can one deny hadeeth after that.


Insh a Allah more is coming

[Muslimah]

<b>Praise be to Allah, "Glory be to You, we have no knowledge except what you have taught us. Verily, it is You, the All-Knower, the All-Wise Allahum Saly a`ala Mohamed wa a`ala aale Mohamed, his household and companions ameen.
</b>


<b>Back to the issue of prayer whether or not it is enjoined as a ritual per Quran</b>


For those who deny the obligation of prayer in Islam, just look at this Ayah saying:


<b>: “Verily, the hypocrites seek to deceive Allah, but it is He Who deceives them. And when they stand up for As-Salaat (the prayer), they stand with laziness and to be seen of men, and they do not remember Allah but little. “ (Quran 4:142)
</b>


and “And nothing prevents their contributions from being accepted from them except that they disbelieved in Allah and in His Messenger (Muhammad ﺻﻠﻰ ﺍﻟﻠﻪ ﻋﻠﻴﻪ ﻭﺳﻠﻢ); and that they came not to As-Salaat (the prayer) except in a lazy state; and that they offer not contributions but unwillingly". (Quran 9”54)


lazy about what? There must be an obligation that they fail to observe or feel lazy to do. How can one not understand the command inherit in this Ayah as nothing else but to perform prayer. Sobhan Allah


Looking at the supplications we make during bowing and prostration (ruku and sujud), usually the position of bowing was practiced upon meeting people of super power or authority such as kings or emperors. No wonder in this very same position when we do it for Allah the All Mighty, we use as taught by the Messenger salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam the supplication contained in Surat Waqea`a in this Ayah (56:74) <b>"“Then glorify with praises the Name of your Lord, the Most Great.”"
</b>


And here too (56:96<b>) “So glorify with praises the Name of your Lord, the Most Great.”.
</b>We say in Arabic Sobhan Rabiyal A`azeem.


which is actually a command to do so. Can u see the relation between the supplication and position. It is not haphazard as u can easily see. It is a strong reminder that in this position which people used to take for human beings just like themselves, that is when we must remember our Lord Who Is certainly the Most Great


While when the devotee prostrates, putting his face fully on the floor, humbling him/herself to Allah, expressing full submission and modesty only to Allah for nothing else and no one else deserves this but our Creator, Allah Commanded us by virtue of the Ayah “Glorify the Name of your Lord, the Most High,“ (Quran 87:1) to use Allah’s Name Al A`ala. It is an implication to always keep in mind not to humiliate, humble or submit ourselves to any one but Allah Al`ala the Most High.


Sobhan Allah prayer as taught to us by the Messenger salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam is fully contained in Quran to only those who have brain and use it to come closer to Allah.


As we can clearly see even the supplications we make during certain positions of prayer are commanded by Allah in Quran. Not only taught through the Messenger salla Allah a`alhyee wa sallam. Who can then deny the importance of prayer even logically. Each movement and word we say has an impact on us. If we take an in depth look at prayer we see how much we are advantaged by being commanded to do so
