Finality of Prophethood

Post originally published: 26/Nov/2017

The unanimous Belief of Muslim world is that Prophet Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم) is the Last and Final Messenger/Prophet of Allah. In other words Prophet-hood has ended with Prophet Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وسلم) and those who do not believe in it are ventured out of the bounds of Islam.

This article is divided into different sections for better and clear understanding.

A) Lexicographical definitions

B) Proof from Quran in light of classical Mufasireen

C) Proof from overwhelming Sahih Ahadith

D) Consensus of Muslim scholars and Ummah

E) The Constitution Law of Pakistan (and declaration of Muslim world that Qadiyanis are Apostates/Kufaar)

F) The False Prophet i.e Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiyani al-Kaddhab and his false claims

Lexicographical definitions

Imam Ibn Munzur [Born: 630 AH] and Allama Ismail bin Hammad al Juhri [Born: 332 AH], the reason why we have mentioned the birth dates of both these Imams is to make it clear that these Lexicographers wrote their works long before the Fitnah of Qadiyanism had even emerged. So It is clear that Muslim Ummah was and is still unanimous on the viewpoint that Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) is the last Prophet and any claim of Prophothood after him is falsehood and trait of Dajjal/Kadhaab

Imam Ibn Munzur (rah) writes in Lisan ul Arab:
محمد، صلى الله عليه وسلم، خاتِمُ الأَنبياء، عليه وعليهم الصلاة والسلام. التهذيب: والخاتِم والخاتَم من أَسماء النبي، صلى الله عليه وسلم. وفي التنزيل العزيز: ما كان محمد أَبا أَحد من رجالكم ولكن رسول الله وخاتِمَ النبيّين؛ أَي آخرهم
Translation: Muhammad (Peace be upon him) is the Last of Prophets (Salat and Salam on all), both the words Khatim and Khatam are names of Prophet, as is revealed in Al Aziz (i.e. Quran):” Muhammad is not the father of any man among you, but he is the messenger of Allah and the Seal of the Prophets; and Allah is ever Aware of all things” (33:40) THIS REFERS TO LAST/END (أَي آخرهم) [Lisan ul Arab, Under the letter “خ”]

Imam Ibn Munzur also said:
ومن أَسمائه العاقب أَيضاً ومعناه آخر الأَنبياء
Translation: And amongst the names (of Prophet) is Al-Aqib which means “The Akhir al Anbiya” I.e. The Last to come of Prophets [Ibid]

Allama Ismail bin Hammad al Juhri (rah) writes:
Arabic-English-Translation: (ختم الله له بخير) May Allah bring the End on Khair, ( وختمت القرآن: بلغت آخره) I finished the Quran: (read) till it's "End"( واختتمت الشئ: نقيض افتتحته )The Last of something is opposite to beginning (of it) (والخاتم والخاتم، بكسر التاء وفتحها. والخيتام والخاتام كله بمعنى، والجمع الخواتيم. وتختمت، إذا لبسته. وخاتمة الشئ: آخره) Khatam, Khatim, Khitam, the Plural Khawatim, the meaning of all these are same and the end of something is Khatim ash Shay. (ومحمد صلى الله عليه وسلم خاتم الانبياء عليهم الصلاة والسلام) And Muhammad (Peace be upon him) is the Last of Prophets (Salat and Salam on all) [As-Sahah Taj ul Lughat, Volume No. 6, Page No. 186]

Definition In Light of great successor (Tabi’i) Qatada (rah)
وأخرج عبد الرزاق وعبد بن حميد وابن المنذر وابن أبي حاتم عن قتادة رضي الله عنه في قوله { ولكن رسول الله وخاتم النبيين } قال: آخر نبي.
Translation: Imam Abdur Razzaq, Abd bin Humaid, Ibn Mundhir and Ibn Abi Hatim narrate from Qatada who said about (He is the Messenger of Allah and Khatam an Nabiyeen) that It means: He is the “LAST NABI” [Imam Jalal ud din Suyuti in Tafsir Dur ul Munthur, Under 33:40]

In Light of leading Tabi’i Imam Hassan al-Basri (rah)
وأخرج عبد بن حميد عن الحسن في قوله { وخاتم النبيين } قال: ختم الله النبيين بمحمد صلى الله عليه وسلم، وكان آخر من بعث.
Translation:Imam Abd bin Humaid narrates from Hassan Basri (rah) who said regarding “Khatam an Nabiyeen” : Allah has brought end to Prophets through Muhammad (Peace be upon him) and “HE IS THE LAST TO BE SENT”[Tafsir Dur ul Munthur Under 33:40]

Proof from Quran in light of classical Mufasireen

Quran states: Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but he is the Messenger of Allah and the Last of the prophets; and Allah is cognizant of all things.(Shakir: 33:40)

Qaasim Nanotvi (d.1879 CE) did not acknowledge The Prophet (صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّم), to be the last of the Prophets.

Mu-hammed Qaasim Nanotvi forefather akabir of Deoband School (established in 1867 CE) wrote:

Tahzeerun Nas (Warning/condemnation of People):

Tadhir al naas was compiled in 1290 AH (1874 CE) and was first published from Barelly by Mawlana Hasan Nanotvee

In 1291 AH Mufti Hafiz Baksh Badyuni wrote a refutation to tadhir al nass with the name”Tanbihul jihaal bi ahlaamil basasatul mutaal”.

In the same year Mawlana Faseeuddin badayuni also wrote a refutation to tadhir al nass, under the name “Qawlul Faseeh”.

Mawlana Abdul hai lucknowi in his book “abtaal aghlaath qasmiyah” declared kufr on Mawlana Qasim Nanotvee ( Mutaliye Barelwiyat, Vol 3 , p 300 , by Khalid deobandi)

Note: Initially Mawlana Abdul hay supported tadhir al nass , as written by mawlana Thanvee .

Later he changed his view and condemned tadhir al nass

Ashraf Ali Thanwi writes:

“When Mawlānā Nanotwi wrote Tahzeerun Naas, nobody in the whole of India supported him, except Mawlānā Abdul Hay.” (Al ifadatul yaumiya)

Quote:

"To interpret "Khaatim-un-Nabiyyeen" as the "last Prophet" is a misconception in the minds of the general public. This meaning is not correct in the eyes of the learned”

Nanotvi goes on to write: "Even if a Prophet were to be born after the holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam), the finality of the holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) will not be affected in any way".

Qasim Nanotvi said:

“Even if it were assumed that a new Prophet can come during the era of the Holy Prophet or after the Holy Prophet, it would not have an effect on the finality of our the Holy Prophet.”
Ref: Tehzir-un-Naas (Pg25, Published By: Kutb Khana Qasmi Deoband, Written By: Qasim Nanotwi)

Qasim Nanotvi said: "Prophets are superior to their followers only in knowledge, but in good deeds, followers sometimes seem equal and occasionally even become superior to them."

Ref: Qasim Nanotvi, Book 'Tahzeerannas, page 5, published in Maktaba Fayz Nazd Jami Masjid, Deoband and also published from Kutub Khana Qasimi, Deoband publication.

Nanotvi wrote that in his view the door to Prophethood remains open even after the demise of the holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) and it is possible for a new Prophet to be born.

Nanotvi, has accepted it as a possibility that a new Prophet may be born after the holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam)

The present-day Deobandi-Wahhabiyyah do call the Qadianis to be polytheists, but they forget and call their own akabir Nanotvi Sahib to be Mu'min despite having similar beliefs to the Qadianis.

Deobandis should carefully go through the fatwa contained on Pages 7 and 8 of Vol. 1, of Fataawa Daarul Uloom, Deoband:

"Question: Can anyone who regards Mirza Ghulam Ahmad of Qadian to be a Musalmaan after becoming aware of the fact that he himself claimed to be a Maseeh and a Mahdi, and yet remains a Musalmaan?

Answer: (Fataawa of the Daarul Uloom, Deoband):

The reprehensible beliefs of Mirza of Qadian are such that knowing the facts no person can call him a Musalmaan. But it is possible for him who has no knowledge of his reprehensible beliefs or who interprets them in some other way and he does not call him a polytheist.

However, having gained knowledge of his pernicious beliefs, the said Mirza must be called a polytheist.

He, and those following him who holds the same beliefs as he, must not be called Musalmaan.

He was not a Musalmaan, as is evidenced by his books.

Regarding a person who does not call him a polytheist, he should also not be called a polytheist, because in matter of interoperation it is better that the verdict of polytheism should not be passed".

Azeez-ur-Rahmaan, Mufti, Daarul Uloom, Deoband.

Ashraf Ali Thanvi says: "Great caution should be taken in declaring somebody a polytheist. What harm would it do if we do not call such a person (a polytheist) a polytheist?" *
---
* For the information to the readers it is submitted that making a distinction between infidelity and Islam is one of the essentials of Deen. You may not call an infidel as an infidel all your life but when the infidelity of the infidel becomes apparent this it is absolutely necessary to regard him as an infidel and to call him by this appellation. Therefore, this is also the Fatwa of the ulama of Deoband: "He who does not call an infidel as infidel is himself an infidel".
---
Furthermore, he says: "Thus, if the polytheists are infect polytheists and we do not call them as such would we be held to account on the Day of Judgement? Or if we call polytheists as polytheists, then what good can accrue on account of it?" (Kamaalaat-i-Ashrafiyah, Page 347 and 348.)

Look at another fatwa: "To be insolent to the Prophets (Alaihis Salaatu-was-Salaam) is, of course, polytheism, but he does not become a polytheist if he interprets it to mean something else". (Imdaad-ul-Fataawa, Page 126, Vol. 4.)

The founder of the Daarul Uloom, Qaasim Nanotvi, has not recognised the meaning of "Khaatim-un-Nabiyyeen" to be the "Final Prophet" and has held it possible for another prophet to be born after the Holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam).

And the Muftis of this very Daarul Uloom have given the fatwa that a polytheist should not be called a polytheist for if explained it does not remain polytheism, that it is better not to call a polytheist as a polytheist, and that there is no harm in not calling a polytheist as a polytheist.

Ashraf Ali Thanvi says: "In important matters of Deen an interpretation (Ta'weel) is no defence of polytheism." (Al Ifaazaatul Yaumiyah, Vol. 7, Page 60.)

The same Thanvi says: "If somebody has in him even one thing of infidelity, then he is an infidel in the eyes of all". (Al Ifaazaatul Yaumiyah, Vol. 7, Page 234.)

Also see this:

"Talking about Qadianis, a Maulvi Sahib asked Hazrat-e-Waala (Thanvi Sahib) to give religious verdict on such Musalmaans who do not subscribe to the view that the Qadianis are polytheists.

And Thanvi said! 'There are two situations in which the Qadianis cannot be declared polytheists.

One of them is that they declare that they (the Qadianis) do not believe in what they are said to believe in and, thus, declared polytheists.

The other situation is that they hold these beliefs but still they are not polytheists.

Now he who thinks like this is also a polytheist. He may not call polytheism as polytheism, but under judicial laws (Ahkaam-i-Qaza) he is a polytheist. But only Allah knows what he is under the laws of honesty (Ahkaam-i-Diyaanat). It may be that he has some unknown reason in his mind." (Al'lfaazaat-ul-Yaumiyah, Vol. 6, Page 318.)

In the above mentioned writing of Thanvi the preachers of Deobandism should deeply ponder over the difference between judicial laws and laws of honesty, and also reply to us.

The compiler of the Fatawaa of Daarul Uloom, Deoband,

Janab Mufti Muhammad Shafee Sahib, writes; "The holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) has informed us that he (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) is the one with whom the chain of Prophets will end and there can be no Prophet after him. And the information has been given to us by Almighty Allah that he (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) is the one who concludes the chain of Prophets. And the ummah is unanimous on this that this saying is based on its obvious meaning and that understanding which comes to us through its obvious meaning also means the same thing without any interpretation or particularisation. Thus, there is no doubt about the polytheism of those who deny it, and this is the final and unanimous belief."
( Khatam-un-Nubuwwat Fil-Aasaar, Page 8.)

The same Mufti Sahib on page 21 of his Hadiyatul-Mahdiyeen, says:

"Of course it is the unanimous and final verdict of Arabic lexicon that the Khaatam-un-Nabiyyeen occurring in the Qur'aanic verse only means "Last Prophet" and nothing but this ... The Muslim Ummah is unanimous on this meaning. So that he who goes against this unanimity (on the agreed meaning of "Khaatam-un-Nabiyyeen") is a polytheist, and if he persists with this (i.e. on-going against the unanimous verdict) he should be put to the sword."

After the fatwa of Mufti Muhammad Shafee Sahib, please also note the following Fatwa by Janab Muhammad Idrees Kandhalvi Deobandi.

In his book, Miskl-ul-Khitaam, he writes; "To deny that the holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) is the last Prophet is to deny the fundamental of Deen. And it is obvious that denial of the fundamental of Deen is out-and-out polytheism". Page 29

The brother of Abul Kalaam A'zad (Deobandi) had praised Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani. For this, see Hayaat-i-Tayyibah, written by Abdul Qaadir, Saudagar Mal, and page 369.

Also know that the nikaah of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani was performed by a famous Wahhabi aalim, Nazeer Husain Muhaddis Dehlvi. (Hayaat-i-Tayyibah, Page 76)

A renowned stalwart spiritual leader of the Deobandis, Abdul Qaadir Raipuri, believing in the false inspirations coming to the Dajjaal and liar and polytheist and apostate, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani, requested him for instructions and guidance and said his prayers behind the Qadiani polytheist and apostate Imam.

Abul Hasan Ali Nadvi, on page 55 of his book, Sawaanih

Maulana Abdul Qaadir Raipuri, says:

"In those days Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani's claim and invitations were much talked about, specially in the Punjab, where few Musalmaan localities were free of such talks and discussions would continue. Near the home-town (Dhudiyan) of Hazrat (Abdul Qaadir Raipuri) is a place called 'Bhera'.

An aalim there, who was also a student of the family elders of the Hazrat (Raipuri), Hakeem Noorud-deen (Qadiani), was a close devotee and assistant of Mirza Sahib (Qadiani) and had permanently settled in Qadian to be of help to him (Mirza Qadiani) in achieving success for him and for the sake of his companionship.

There was much talk in his circle of devotees and in his sphere of influence of the claim of Mirza Sahib to be a person favoured by Allah and for his being blessed with acceptance of his supplication.

The Hazrat (Raipuri) had read it somewhere in Mirza Sahib's (Qadiani's) writings that Allah had inspired in him the saying, Ajeebu kulla duaa'ika illaf shurakaa'ika (I will grant all your supplications except those made for your partners), So The Hazrat (Raipuri) in a letter to Mirza Sahib (Qadiani) from 'Afzal Grah' referred to this very inspiration and promise and requested him that since he had no partnership with him (Qadiani) he should make supplication so that he may be given guidance and his breast be opened up.

A letter from there written by one Maulvi Abdul Kareem Sahib informed him (Raipuri) that his letter had been received and much supplication had been made for him. So, he should keep reminding about it occasionally. The Hazrat (Raipuri) used to say that in those days a post card cost one Pisa and so he would occasionally post a card to Mirza Qadiani by way of a reminder for supplicating on his behalf."

More about the special disciple of Janab Shah Abdur Raheem Raipuri, Janab Abdul Qaadir Raipuri (whose real name was Ghulam Jeelaani). On page 62 of his book,

Abul Hasan Nadvi Sahib writes:

"Giving an account of the meetings held by Hakeem Sahib (Noorud-deen Qadiani), he (Abdul Qaadir Raipuri) said: 'I used to watch him (Hakeem Sahib) recite every now and then the Qur'aanic verse La ilaaha illa anta Subhaanaka inni kuntu minaz zaalimeen with such compassion that one felt drawn towards it.

Then, I would think how a person possessing such ecstasy and nearness to Allah can be so ignoramus?

But at the same time I would think in my heart that if Allah is most compassionate and most merciful, and He is undoubtedly so, He cannot leave him in such ignominy".

During this journey, he also met Mirza Sahib (Qadiani), and he (Abdul Qaadir Raipuri) used to say that he would sometimes say his prayers behind him (Mirza Qadian) and sometimes separately."

The writings of the Qadianis

* "Allah is one and Muhammad (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) is His Prophet and he is the Last of the Prophets and greater in rank than all the creations. After him, there is no Prophet but only he upon whom the mantle of Muhammadiyat has been bestowed, for the slave is not separate from his Master, nor is the branch from the seed from which it has sprouted. Thus, he who having dissolved himself totally in his Master receives the title of a Prophet from Allah cannot be said to interfere with (the doctrine of) the finality of Prophethood. (Kishti-ye-Nooh, by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani, Page 33.)

"Such Prophets may come who, in relation to the Holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam), stand as his shadows... The coming of such Prophets makes no difference to his being the Last Prophet." (Da'wat-ul-Ameer, written by Mirza Basheerud-deen Mahmood, Page 25.)

* "A thousand Prophets can be born after the Last Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam).
(Aik ghati ka Izaalah (Eradication of a wrong), by Mirza Qadiani, Page 3.)

"Goats or things invoked in the name of a godess or Sheikh Saddo and such others are quite un-lawful".(Tafseer-ul-Qur'aan Dars by Hakim Nooruddin Mirzai, page 66, vol. 2.)

* "Can a proof be found in the Quran for the saying "Ya Sheikh Abdul Qaadir Jeelaani Shai'anlil Laah? Who, then, invented this as part of daily worship." (Paighaam-e-Sulh, Lahore, 11th February, 1952.)

* "One day when I finished my Isha (night) prayers, I was neither overpowered by sleep, nor I felt any sign of being unconscious, but I felt sick. Suddenly I heard voices and with that the door began to rattle. Some time later, I saw such of those who had knocked at the door coming towards me with quick steps. Of course, these were the Panjtan Paak that is to say Ali with his sons. I further saw that Faatimatuz-Zahra has placed my head on her lap and was gazing at me." (A'eena-e-Kamaalaat-e-lslam by Mirza Qadiani, Page 473.)

* "Everybody can progress and attain to the highest rank. So much so that he can rise even higher than Hazrat Muhammad (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam)."(Alfuzl, Qadian, 17th July, 1922.)

* "Allah Almighty can commit a wrong or a foolishness." (Haqeeqate-Wahy, by Mirza Qadiand, Page 103.)

The writings of the Wahhabi akabir of Deoband

* "So far as the general public is concerned, they take the finality of the Prophethood of the holy Prophet of (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) to mean that his times came after the earlier Prophets and he is the last of the Prophets. But it would be clear to people with understanding that no excellence per se attaches to being earlier or later, then how can the saying that Wa Laakir Rasoolal Laahi Wa Khaataman-Nabiyyeen be deemed to be correct."

"It will make no difference to the finality of the holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) even if a Prophet were to be born after the times of the Prophet of Allah (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam)."

* "The finality of the holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) is retained as usual, even if a Prophet were to be born somewhere in his times." (Tahzeerun Naas, page 3, 13 and page 24, by Muhammad Qaasim Nanotvi.)

"There is no harm in saying 'La-Ilaaha-Illal-Laahu Ashraf Ali Rasoolul Laah' and Allahumma Salli Ala Saiyidina wa Nabiyyina Ashraf Ali"'. (Risaalah Al Imdaad, Page 35, for the Month of Safar, 1366 A.H., by Ashraf Ali Thanvi.)

* "The glory of the king of kings (Allah Almighty) is such that, if it so pleases Him, he can by the very word 'be' create millions upon millions of the likes of Prophets, friends of Allah, and Jinns and the angel Jibrail and Muhammad, the Prophet of Allah." (Taqwiyat-ul-lmaan page 3, by Muhammad Isma'iel Dehlvi Balakoti.)

* "The birth of a person of the stature of Hazrat Muhammad (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) is a distinct possibility." (Yak Rozi, page 151, by Muhammad Isma'iel Dehlvi Balakoti.)

* "If any animal is named after a created being and it is said that a certain cow belongs to Saiyid Ahmad Kabeer or a certain goat belongs to Sheikh Saddoo then it becomes forbidden." (Taqwiyatul Imaan, page 46, by Isma'iel Dehlvi Balakoti.)

"Those who say 'Ya Sheikh Abdul Qaadir' or 'Ya Ali," are polytheists. (Tazkeerul-Akhwaun.)

* "Making part of daily worship such things as "Ya Sheikh Abdul Qaadir Shai'an Lil Laah' is (Haraam) prohibited". * (Fataawa-e-Rasheediyah, page 139, vol. 2, by Rasheed Ahmad Gangohi.)

---
* On page 47 of this book, readers have already noticed the words used by the religions master of the Wahhabis of Deoband and the ideological base of the Tableeghi hand, Ashraf Ali Thanvi Sahib, for his guide, Haji Imdaadul Laah and Rasheed Ahmad Gangohi Sahib, whom he invokes thus:

"Ya Saiyeidi Lil Laahi Shai'an In Nahu".

If the Ahle Sunnat Wa Jama'at use the same words for Syedena Sheikh Abdul Qaadir Jeelani (ra) the Deobandi begin firing fatwa of polytheism.

But according to Tazkiratur Rasheed, these very words contained in the writings of Thanvi Sahib will be a definite evidence for the redemption of Ashraf Ali Thanvi on the Day of Judgement.”

“It is not necessary for the Prophets to be innocent and immune (Urdu: pak and in English: pure) from saying blatant lies.” (MaazAllah)
Ref: Tasfiat-ul-Aqaid (Pg25, Published By: Syed Maailk Kutb Khana Aizazia Deoband, Written By: Qasim Nanotwi)

Qasim Nanotvi said: “Only to the general public, the finality of Prophethood (Khatamun Nabiyeen) means the last Prophet; this is not the correct meaning of the term, for the knowledgeable people. Even if a Prophet comes after the Era of Muhammad, it will make no difference to the end of prophethood that is associated with Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam).” (Tahzeerun Naas, page 3, 25).

Tahdhir al nas (“Tahzeerun Naas”) and Qasim Nanotvi wrote a book named “Tahzeerun Naas” in which he wrote:

“ The common folk, the general populace thinks that the meaning of the saying

‘RasulAllah (s) is the Seal’ means that his time is after the time of the earlier prophets and that he is the last of all the prophets.

However, people of discerning know that there is no speciality in being earlier or later.

Suppose if there is a prophet born ever after the time of RasulAllah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, there shall be no difference in his being the Seal.

So it wouldn’t make any difference if there is a prophet in his own time on a different planet, or even on this very planet”

In a letter to Maulana Muhammad Fazil, Maulana Muhammad Qasim Nanotwi wrote:

“The meaning of Khatam al-Nabiyyin according to those who look at literal meanings is that the time of the Prophethood of Muhammad is after the time of the Prophethood of all other Prophets and that no other Prophet can come afterwards. However, you know that this is something in which there is neither praise nor any harm.

Please keep in mind the above claim while reading these narrations

Regarding grave of Mawlana Qasim Nanotvi

“ It is the kashf of Mawlana Rafeeudden sahib mujaddidi naqshbandi, fomer Incharge of Darul uloom deoband that the grave of Mawlana Qasim nanotvee,founder Darul Uloom Deoband, is within the grave of some prophet ( nabee). ( Mubasshirat, page 36,published by Darul uloom deoband)

Sawaneh Qasimi is a book written by one of the famous scholar of Deoband, Mawlana Munazir Hasan Gilani. It is a Biography of Mawlana Qasim Nanotvee. It is published by Darul uloom deoband.

It says

“One day mawlana Qasim nanotvee said to his spiritual guide ( murshid) Haji Imdadullah “whenever I sit with prayer beads(Rosary) I feel great difficulty. I feel as if someone has placed heavy stones of 100 tonnes on my heart and tongue and everthing freezes”

To this Haji Sahab ( Shaykh Imdadullah) replied:

” it is a blessing of Nabuwwat similar to which prophet( sal allahu alaihi wa sallam) used to feel while he used to get revelation ( wahi), Allah has chosen you for that work which is done by prophets”

(Sawaneh Qasimi , vol 1, page 259)

The Exact Urdu wordings are:

“yeh nabuwwat ka aapke qalb per faizan hota hai aur yeh wah siql hai jo huzoor sal allahu alaihi wasallam ko wahi ki waqt mauhsoos hota tha ,tum se haq taala ko wah kaam lena hai jo nabiyon se liya jata hai”

Arawahe Salasa is a book which deals with narrations and incidence of famous Deobandi scholars.

It was written by Ameer shah Khan and Mawlana Zaheer hasan kasuri.

Asharaf ali thanvi wrote Hashiya (commentary) of it.

It is one of the famous book of ‘Hakayat” and teachings among Deobandis.

It is easily available. It is also called: ‘ shahan dehli, aslafe deoband and Hakayate awliya.

It states:
“Hazrat Gangohi ( Rashid ahmed) asked his student Mawlana Mohammed Yahya sahib Kandhalvee to look for some ruling in the book Shami . Mawlana Yahya replied that the particular ruling is not present in the book”.

Hazrat Ganho said how can this be possible? Bring the book to me. The book was brought infront of Hazrat (Rashid Ahmed gangohi).

At that time hazrat ( Rashid ahmed) had already lost his eye sight.

He took the book and turned two-third of the pages to the right and one third to the left and opened a page and said ” look on the bottom side of left page” .

It was found that the ruling was very much present there. Everyone was amazed.

Hazrat ( Rashid ahmed ) said: “Allah has promised me that he will not let anything wrong come come out of my tongue” (Arwahe Thalasa, page 292)

But this is not the end.

Look at what Mawlana Asharf ali thanvi wrote in commentary to this incidence:

“It can be an incidence of coincidence (that the exact page got opened) but this is not the case. It was the kashf of mawlana , otherwise he ( Mawlana Rashid Ahmed) would not have said this with so much emphasis that” look at that place”.

Do we still remember?

“to have this belief that prophet had the knowledge of the unseen is clear shirk”
( Fatwa Rashidia, by Mawlana Rashid Ahmed Gangohi)

Here is another interesting incidence

“One day Hazrat (Rashid Ahmed) Gangohi was in high spirits (josh) and the topic was regarding “tasawware shaykh”. He said: “should I speak”?

People said:” yes, please”.
Hazrat (Rashid ahmed) again said: “should I speak”?

People again said: “yes, please”.
He again said: “should I speak”?

People said: “yes, please”!

Then hazrat (Rashid Ahmed) said: “ for three continuous years face of hazrat Imdadullah has remained in my heart ( qalb) and I have not done anything without taking his permission”.

Then Hazrat (Rashid Ahmed) got more excited and said:” should I speak”.

People said: “please, do”!

He (Rashid Ahmed) said: “ for so many years prophet (sal allahu alaihi wa sallam) remained in my heart and I did not do anything without taking permission from prophet”. (Foot note: I do not remember how many years was said by Khan sahib).

After saying this Hazrat got more excited and said: “should I speak?”

People said: “please, do”.

But he remained silent. When people requested him he said: “just leave it.”

(Arwahe Salasa, page 292)

It is well understood that what Mawlana Rashid Ahmed wanted to say further!

What is to be noted that Mawlana Rashid Ahmed said for so many years prophet has remained in his heart.

He did not say: ‘Noor’ of Prophet or ‘face’ of Prophet!

But prophet himself!

Was the blessed grave of prophet empty during those years?

So what will happen to that argument given by Asharf ali thanvi in which he said:

‘ if Mawlid gathering are conducted at many places simultaneously, then how will prophet decide where to go and where not to’? (Fatwa Imdadiya, vol 4, page 58)

Another famous well-wisher and supporter of Deobandi thinking was Mawlana Aashiq ilahi meerathi who wrote ‘Tazkiraturrasheed” which is a biography of Mawlana Rashid Ahmed Gangohi in 2 volumes. It was published by Deoband.

Mawlana Aashiq Ilahi writes that many a times he has heard that Mawlana Rashid ahmed gangohi said this
“Listen.! Truth is what comes out of the mouth of Rahsid Ahmed and I testify that I am nothing but in this era guidance and salvation ( hidayat wa najaat) is only through following me ( ittiba).

( Tazkiraturrashid, vol 2, safa 17)

Here is another interesting incidence.

Mawlana Aashiq Ilahi merathi narrates this dream from Munshi Ameer Ahmed of Agra.

Please read this incidence and try to recall the hadith of Thuwayba in Sahih Bukhari who was a freed slave by Abu Lahab.

“There was a shia from (the town of ) Gangoh. He died and I saw him in dream and caught hold of his thumbs. He was terrified and asked me what do I want?

I asked him how was he condition after death?

He replied that he is in severe torment and during his illness( when he was alive) Mawlana Rashid Ahmed went to see him and those places of his body where Mawlana has touched is safe from torture.

All other parts are under torture. After that I got up from my sleep” ( Tazkiraturrashid,volume 2,page 324)

A similar incidence is mentioned in the same book.

“There was a servant of Mawlana Ismail. When he died ,someone saw him in dream. His full body was burning on fire except his palms. The man ( who saw this dream) asked him , how he was doing? He replied that he was being punished for his bad deeds and his whole body is under fire except his both the palm as he used these palms to touch the feet of Mawlana ( Ismail) and it was said:” We feel ashamed of burning those palms” .

Pir Syed Meher Ali Shah Gilani (ra) (d.1937)

Hazrat Pir Meher Ali Shah’s (ra) fight against Qadianism

“ Khatm-e-Nabuwwat” (Finality of Prophet-hood)

The background to Hazrat’s entry into the struggle against Qadianism is that during his visit to the Hijaz for Hajj in 1890 AD (1307 A.H.), the chaste atmosphere of the Holy Land had touched him so deeply that he had thought of permanently settling down there. However, Haji Imdad-ullah Muhajir of Makkah had advised him to return home in the following words:

“In the near future, a dangerous and evil movement is likely to raise its head in India, and you are destined to play a key role in combating it. Even if you do nothing actively against this movement, your mere presence in the country would help shield the country’s ulama against its pernicious effects”. The truth of these words was proved barely a year later, i.e., in 1891, when Mirza of Qadian announced his (initial) claim to be the Promised Massiah (Jesus Christ) - an announcement that was to culminate about ten years later in his claim to be a full-fledged prophet of God in his own right.

Two spiritual visions experienced by Hazrat around this time also deserve a mention in this context. According to one of these, quoted in Malfuzat-e-Mihriya, the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) had appeared to Hazrat (R.A) in a dream and had commanded him to effectively refute Mirza of Qadian, who was “tearing to pieces his (i.e., the Prophet’s) ahadith through distortion and misinterpretation”.

According to the other vision, which is described in a manuscript in Hazrat’s own handwriting discovered later in his personal papers, and which occurred when Mirza challenged Hazrat to an open debate in 1900A.D, Hazrat had seen himself seated in a most respectful posture before the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) in his prayer cell, in the manner of a disciple sitting before his Shaikh (spiritual guide), while Mirza of Qadian was sitting a good distance away with his back turned to the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H).

Hazrat construed this as a clear indication of Mirza’s defiance of the Prophet’s teachings, and this prompted him to accept Mirza’s challenge for a debate in Lahore. In Hazrat’s celebrated book Saif-e-Chishtiyai (The Chishtia Sword), which Hazrat wrote later in refutation of Qadianism, he has also described a dream which he had seen in his youth, and according to which he had successfully repulsed a sword attack by the one-eyed Dajjal (Antichrist) in three consecutive thrusts. This dream, too, he interpreted as symbolically forecasting his victorious fight against the heretical Qadyani creed later in his life.

Hazrat Pir Meher Ali Shah Sahib wrote a book titled “ Shams-ul-Hidayah Fi Isbat-e-Hayatul Masih” in 1899.

Interview of Allama Khadim Hussain Rizvi (ra)

November 22, 2017

The parliament of Pakistan passed new election reforms bill where they made amendments so that the Qadiyanies followers of the impostor Mirza Ghulam Ahmed of Qadiyan, already declared non-Muslims in 1973 constitution of Pakistan, can vote and contest elections as Muslims.

There was 12 hour protest by Allama Khadim Hussain Rizvi on Mall of Lahore to take the amendments back.

First the government of Pakistan refused there was any changes to Khatame Nabuwwah clause.

Later when there were major outcry and Army ISPR showed concerns, the amendments were taken back.

Allama Khadim Hussain Rizvi organized a long march on 6th Nov 2017 from Lahore to Islamabad, demanding that the federal law minister Zaid Hamid should resign for this neglect.

Despite large presence of people government showed no intentions to hear the demands and the long march got converted to sit-in at Faizabad, one of around 100 entry points to Islamabad. Meanwhile government closed major roads with containers to stop long march from entering D-Chowk.

Here is an interview of Allama Khadim Hussain Rizvi with Faheem Farani, taken sometime around 20th Sep 2017.

Here goes the transcript:

Q. We have the Ameer (Chairman) Tehreek Labaik Ya Rasool Allah with us. Let us include him in this talk. Aslam O Alaikum Rizvi Sahib

Wa Alaikum us Salam

Q. Thank you for joining us Allama Sahib. You are present here (Faizabad, Islamabad sit-in) for last two weeks. Islamabad High Court (IHC) also agreed with your demands completely. Many of your demands have been accepted. Now the matter is stuck on the resignation of a minister (Federal law minister Zaid Hamid). It is reported that you are showing no flexibility on this point though many of your demands have been accepted. Kindly elaborate your view point.

Bismillah Hirra hma Nirrahim, Aslato Wassalmo Alaika Ya Rasool Allah, Wa Ala Alika wa Ashabika Ya Khatamun Nabiyin, Many thanks Sir, May Almighty keep you happy. The point is our basic demand is the immediate resignation of law minister Zaid Hamid, we never talked about any other demand. Since we left Lahore we have been saying that our basic demand is resignation. Only after that we would talk about something else. I don’t know what are the accepted demands and what are the unaccepted ones. The man who is culprit of this robbery, or if he is innocent then he should name who else is responsible. It is same like a thief is caught red handed and then he says sorry. Tell me can he be forgiven for merely saying sorry? Then we have their (government) announcements of two days earlier, declaring, “There is absolutely no change (to finality of prophet-hood clauses) Only these molvies do not understand English”. Then when they accepted, said, “Yes we have had a mistake”. Then they said, “Clerics made this mistake”. Then said, “No this is the mistake of whole parliament”. This thing and that thing.

OK, if they had made no mistake then what corrections have they made now? They should inform us. It is clear that there was a mistake. All we want is whoever made this “mistake” should be discovered and be punished according to the law and the constitution.

The answers, “My father has been buried in Mian Mir (Famous Sufi shrine in Lahore). My mother has been buried in such and such graveyard. I am a great lover of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace and blessings of Almighty Allah be upon him).” Is any of this answers the question that we came to ask from Lahore to Islamabad? The question is who is the culprit? That’s all. “I sit in aitekaff every year in Masjid e Nabvi Shareef”. Brother, is this the question we asked you? We ask who was so bold (to forge the constitution)? If you did this then surrender to law and take whatever punishment according to the law. If you did not do this then mention the real criminal. This is the whole issue that they have been stretching so long.

Q. OK Allama Sahib, Raja Zafarul Haque, a senator of PMLN, a committee were formed under his supervision for this very purpose, to identify the people responsible for this (Changes in Khatm E Nabuwwat clauses). Today federal interior minister Ahsan Iqbal had a conference with Islamic scholars from whole Pakistan and it were decided that the findings of the Zafarul Haque committee be made public. Do you think you would be satisfied with the report of that committee or you would still be insisting on the resignation of Zahid Hamid.

The committee (conference) that has been called, every ruler finds such people available. If those scholars and peers are from our dharna (sit-in), then they have right to talk. If they can not sit with us then they may have had tents and sit-in in D-chowk. Have they had sit-in in cold weather? Have these people presented any sacrifices? What right these people have. Would they be representing us? We ourselves are present to represent ourselves and to safeguard the finality of the prophethood of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace and countless blessings of almighty Allah be upon him). Who are those people? I do not know them. I have seen their face for the first time.

Q. That means no man from your sit-in or your organization was part of this conference?

No. If someone had a speech from our platform, he is not our representative. We have our shura of 15 members. No one from them went to that conference. Shouldn’t only a member of our shura be presenting our view. If some one came and had a speech from our stage, he is still not authorised to present our view. I am the Ameer (Chairman TLP) and then there is the shura to give our views. It is not a game of children. They did so big a mistake and blasphemy, and then called hand picked Molvies (religios scholars). Is this the way to solve the problem? Did they resolve the issue of Pervaiz Rasheed by calling Molvies? Similarly the matters of cabinet and other issues related to governance, do they call Molvies to solve? How cruel these people are! We have very simple demand. First he (interior minister) said these are only 150 people. You see they have imprisoned our 2700 workers. Still we are 150, yesterday he accepted the number to be 2000. It is not the question whether we are 2000 or 200,000 or 20,000,000. It is the problem of whole Muslim Ummah. Today I received a call from Egypt, from an international Islamic organization, they were worried for this matter and said that our problem should be resolved. Whole Islamic community suffered from this issue and they called two (hand picked) Molvies to solve this big issue. Is this the solution? Why the pious companions of the Prophet (Peace be upon him) presented sacrifices. Why didn’t Sahaba did one or two conferences in Madinah? Musailmah is sitting there and we have to hold talks on Khatm-E-Nabuwwah. Khatme Nabuwwah demands sacrifices. We are sitting with our heads to be sacrificed. Through your media I want to inform the whole world that till our issue is resolved we are sitting here. Either we would be arrested or be martyred.

Q. Allama Sahib government tried for negotiations and people from your side also met with governments teams. Wasn’t there any proceeding in that direction? I mean I want to know what happened during those negotiations?

Nothing happened. All they say is forgive him. Who are we to forgive him? Inna ala zeen uzuna , they grieved the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him), and to forgive is Molvi Khadim Hussain? How sensible is this demand? As an example, a daughter of a person gets abducted by a person from third block comes forward and forgives? Has it ever happened anywhere in the world? Is there any law that allows rights of one person be be exonerated by a third person? Ahsan Iqbal is telling lies on lies. This is a strange thing. Such a person has no right to become an interior minister at the first place (Article 61/62).He is continuously lying from day. He should fear Allah. He says his mother is buried in Janatul Baquih. Have we come to ask about your mother? At another times he says he has the cloth from the Roza Rasool (Peace be upon him). You decide yourself, what is the question and what are these explanations? These people are not at all serious. If they were serious, this issue demands no more than 10 minutes.

Q. Allama Sahib you explained well the reasons why you are here. But the problem is Islamabad is the capital city of Pakistan and besides the citizens of Islamabad are also suffering. Pakistan’s image is at question on international level that the capital of Pakistan has been jammed for two weeks. How would you justify the problems faced by the people?

Please inform, while the mistake has been committed in Islamabad, should we had gone to Amratsar or Dehli to protest? We had to sit-in where the mistake has been committed. The other thing is, were not the image of Pakistan tarnished when Dr. Afia Siddiqi was sold? When, in the country obtained in the name of Kalmah Tayabba, a robbery was committed against Khatme Nabuwwah, didn’t the image tarnish then ? America is dictating amendments in blasphemy and Khatme Nabuwwah clauses, doesn’t it tarnish the image of Pakistan, a soverign state. Why is America dictating this? Not when they called Qadiyanies there brothers and sisters? Not when Musharaf presented 6 type of dances to Bush in president house in 2006, as written by Gen Shahid Aziz in his book ‘Yeh Khamoshi Kahan Tak’, and in last dance the daughters of Muslims were presented naked? What are you talking about. The image of Pakistan improved due to the issue of Khatme Nabuwwah. The eyes of whole Ummah are fixed on Pakistan at present. The Muslims who do not even understand our language show concern for our cause. These are agents (bootlickers) of Jews and Christians so they are say that image of Pakistan hs been compromised. It is now that image of Pakistan has came on track.

Q. Allama sahib there is criticism on you, sorry for asking but i want to know, it is being said that miscreants are present in your sit-in and it is a conspiracy against Pakistan. I want you to explain this question too.

You see, isn’t it hat there are miscreants spread all over Pakistan who blast bombs, murdering is going on, the worsening state of Baluchistan. If there are miscreants in our sit-in, then they would martyr me, OK. The would shoot Molvi Khadim, what is more sever that can happen? With the grace of Almighty Allah our security is high alert. There is no miscreant. Lies over lies that there are miscreants. If there are any, send your agencies to capture them.

Q. Allama Sahib are you sure that the workers in your sit-in have no fire arms.

In my tent there is not even a knife present. If I need something, I instruct them (workers) to borrow from some one. How can I say that. When our sit-in ends I roam the participants in different get up. I have never seen such a person. If there were any miscreants, they would have shooted me finding that I am all alone. Here comes on wheel chair, let us shoot him. What nonsense.

Q. Allama shib some problems are created due to sit-in, the traffic problems, people finding it difficult to reach work places, ambulances getting stuck.

Are these we who created these problems? Why did we marched from Lahore? It is those (government) who created problems. Was there any agitation before, were there a storm, was nation on streets demanding to change the law? Why that change in the clauses of Khatme? We ourselves have this very question, who is the person that took Pakistan to such severe condition. That has caused distress to whole Muslim Ummah. Perhaps you are not aware that many big Islamic Madrassahs have been closed, school and college students, women are writing us letters, yesterday one woman sent 7 children to sit-in and wrote a letter to me, “Since you have forbidden women to come (to sit-in) therefore please sacrifice these 7 children of mine on the name of the Rasool Allah (Peace be upon him)”. Those people do not understand the sensitivity of this issue. They are lying.

Q. Therefore Allama Sahib you understand that whatever problems are faced, an ambulance gets stuck with a patient in trouble, then that is due to the government. You are not responsible.

There is no restriction on ambulances, there is no restriction on food. People pass through here, women pass through, ambulances pass through and school, college students pass through here. The only difference is where one took food after 10 minutes, now he gets after half an hour. If one brought groceries in 30 minutes, now brings in 45 minutes. These are but two roads. They all are telling lies. All these frauds are to avoid being naked before the nation. Sometimes they say there are beatings, sometimes they say a child died, sometimes they say ambulances get stuck. The father of the child, whose FIR they registered against me, told me that Police came to him and said that they would facilitate him in every respect and make a strong case against Molvi Khadim. When that man found out that sit-in was for Khhatme Nabuwwah he himself phoned us. The name of that child’s father is Bilal. He told us that when he came to know that sit-in is for the Prophet (Peace be upon him), this was but one child if he had 100, he would have been glad to sacrifice them.

Q. Allama Sahib as the instructions of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) are, like keep the paths open, do not sit on roads, open up the roads for transportation so that people do not face problems. What about all those religious instructions?

You must know very well that at the time of Fatah Mecca Hazoor (Peace be upon him) closed all the roads of Madinah. It seems you are unaware of this. And he appointed Hazrat Umar (May Allah be pleased with him) on guard. Only one road was left open for people. A letter left Madinah, the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) informed his companions of breech and instructed them to go and fetch that woman and the letter she is carrying. These people only read Wa ma arsalnaka illa rehamtal lil alameen. Ya ayuhal nabiyu jahidil kuffar wal munafeqin wagluz alaihim, my Prophet fight with infidels and hypocrites and be harsh on them. Where did go this verse? …Wa ya deen kuluhu lillah, my beloved order your servants to fight the infidels so that Islam spreads all over the world. If you arrange a Shabeenah Taraweeh, I can recite complete Holy Quran in one rakkat to you. I will tell the translation too.

Q. Now Allama sahib, the matter is that IHC has ordered to end the sit-in.

Than this is good thing what is bad in it. Its good the Honorable have issued it. The Honorable who ordered it, he himself reached from Pindi to Lahore for Justice Iftikhar Chaushary in 25 hours . The actual travel time is 5 hours. Why were 20 hours of the nation wasted? Traffic remained disturbed, life went on a pause (mouatal) and in very Faizabad Honorable was himself raising slogans, Iftikhar Chaudhary zinda baad. If that was legal then why slogans of Tajdare Khatme Nabuwwat Zinda baad are illegal. Right.

Q. Allama Sahib I want to know, this is the order of the court and the orders of the court have/should be always complied with.

Then you should comply. Who is stopping you. You comply, Ma Sha Allah. Were Nawaz Sharif complying when he came out, from Pindi to Lahore, was he complying? Hear please.

Q. Yes Yes, Please carry on

You see, if court orders are always to be complied with then what was he saying from Pindi to Lahore (Mujhe kton nikala), against whom were he talking? In Abbottabad whom he said highwaymen (rahzan). Please ask only what is acceptable. In the matter of finality of prophethood, you people sitting on TV channnels should not talk rubbish. What are the instruction of Islam, that should be broadcasted.

Q. Allama Sahib we want to understand.

Listen to me. The strange thing is you observed the traffic jam, where were you when the robbery was committed against Khatame Nuabuwwah? How many programs did you air? How many anchors spoke in favor of this issue? You people have no clue of the sensitivity of the issue. Twelve hundred pious Sahaba embraced martyrdom for this very cause. The largest loss of Islam in any war till then, the big war of Khatme Nabuwwah. Hazrat Abu Bakar Siddique (May Allah be pleased with him) said that if beasttes of jungle come to Madinah and drag out me and the hijab observing women in homes even then the war would be fought. Siddique Akbar would keep safeguarding the Khatme Nabuwah.

Q. OK, Sir, media fulfilled its duties. It was media who first published the news that there were changes in oath. Certainly the Khatame Nabuwwah is the issue of every Muslim. There can be no compromise on this issue.

But responsibility does not end here. If that were the case then 10 Sahabau would go for war, 10 would make speeches , do seminars and conferences that Musailmah has come how can we deal with him. The responsibility of the respect of the Prophet (Peace be upon him) is that Siddiqu-e Akbar at first made the law that Badri Sahabh would not fight any war in future. When the issue of Khatame Nabuwwat rose, he broke his own law and instructed every one, irrespective of being Badri or not, to reach Yamamah. Then Ashra Mubashara went, blind Sahahbah went, ones with cut hands went, old went. You should inform the sensitivity of this issue to the public, not that traffic is jammed or food is being served with a delay of 10 or 12 minutes. If someone does not get degree this year, he will get it the next year. Many school and college student donated their fees here that they may keep studying in future. Next year we may study but now is the time to stand for Khatme Nabuwwah. The boys are present in sit-in who had their fathers died, mothers death, grandfather death, brother deaths. We told them to leave but they said no, “We are here till the issue of Khatme Nabuwwah gets resolved”. The heads of our children were broken (in beatings by security forces). The tooth and jaws have been broken. Their legs and arms have been broken. We said them to leave but they said no, “we are here to be martyred in the respect of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him)”. These are the passions you should be telecasting to the nation. You only view traffic jam but have no idea what are the feelings and passion of the people. You should represent these people as well.

Q. Allama Sahib of course they are being represented. For that very purpose we requested you to be guest in this programm. So that your views, the ones who are present in the sit-in, also reach the public. We present all sorts of views.

No, not the view of all kinds be presented. When there is the matter of Prophet (Peace be upon him), then only that view needs be broadcasted. You see there were 1,24,000 shahbah at that time (Yamamah war) and not single one of them said that in his view Musailma Kazzab should be instructed and preached first. At present the conditions are not suitable for war. Madinah should not be left empty. When the matter is of Hazoor (Peace be upon him) then,

هر که عشق مصطفی سامان اوست

بحر و بر در گوشهٔ دامان اوست

har key ishq Mustafa (Peace and blessings of Almighty Allah be upon him) saman osat

behr o bar dar goshai damana osat

Then earth, skies, oceans all are at stake because Allah created all these things for his Beloved (Peace be upon him). You should not broadcast every point of view. Please take note. A man is Mirzai (Follower of Mirza Ghulam Qadiyani), would you present his views too? That Qadiyani received revelations, would you broadcast that too?

Q. Allama Sahib, Broadcasting view of someone lie does not turn to truth and truth to a lie? There is a man for every matter who understands the matter. If we need guidance in matters of religion, we have scholars like you and we consult you. Presenting a view is a different thing and agreeing to that view is a different thing.

You should not even hear that other view. When Musailmah Kazzab asked Hazrat Zaid (May Almighty Allah be pleased with him), A tashhadu anni anna rasool allah, do you witness I am a prophet? He asked this question while holding a sord on his head. Do you witness I am a prophet of Allah? Musailmah presented his view but what was the response of the companion (of the Holy Prophet peace be upon him)? La asmauka “I do not hearing your chatter” . Why would you hear other views? You should not hear those other views. Such thinking has never been entertained in Islam. With the arrival of the Prophet (Peace be upon him), all such other thoughts ended. For this reason I say that, “Had Muslim read the incident of 1200 deaths, they would not have heared any other narrative.”. And what are we? The roads where Sahaba travelled, we do not equate even to dust particles of those paths.

Q. Allama Sahib IHC has also order that you should be moved to a place reserved for sit-ins and you open the Faizabad interchange. Is this suggestion acceptable to you?

As a matter of fact we are sitting with the same views we had on day one. When that demand is met, Inshahllah we will move out elsewhere.

Q. That means if you are asked to change the sit-in place, you won’t accept it.

Not before that.

Q. Allama sahib one thing that I want to understand, if there is any doubt left, in minds of our viewers, to let it be cleared. Regarding the example you were quoting regarding the closing of paths of the state of Madinah and your details about the incident of Musailmah Kazzab. Sir, I want to know from you that those were the incidents 1400 years ago. Can the present day situations, contrary to when the Holy Prophet (Peace be upon him) was himself present and Sahabah ikram were present, can the events be dealt with in the same 1400 years old methods? There were no free courts then. Now we have free courts. (This is blasphemy, Abu Bakar) that make decisions. I want to understand this comparison.

We have recited the Kalmah,

بدلے گا زمانہ لاکھ مگر قرآن نہ بدلا جائے گا

ہے قول محمد (صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم) قول خدا، فرمان نہ بدلا جائے گا

Badlay ga zamana lakh magar quran na badla jay ga

Hay qole Muhammad (Peace be upon him) qol khuda farman na badla jay ga

Time will change much but the Holy Quran would never be changed

The order of Muhammad (Peace be upon him) is the order of Allah, the order would never be changed

It is the same Kalmah, Same god, same Prophet (Peace be upon him), same heavens and same earth, same sun. It is only we who have changed.

بدل دیا رخ مشرق کو تو نے اے مغرب

خدا بچائے تیری ہوا سے اس زمانے کو

Badal diya rukh mashriq ko aey maghrab

teri hawa se bachay khuda zamanay ko

O’ West, You changed the ennviornment of East

May Almighty Allah save these times from your air

For that, what Iqbal has said,

سوز عشق از دانش حاضر مجوی

کیف حق از جام این کافر مجوی

soze ishaq az danish e hazir majoy

Jame haq rah jame eein kafir majoyy

The passion of love can not be received from moderen intellect

The passion of right can not be obtained from drinking this forbidden

Iqbal says, when he came back after studying in Europe, he said…, those are long details, I will discuss later if there is a discussion on Iqbaliyat

Iqbal says if a man is impressed by Europe and machines of Europe, their progress, their roads, their electricity networks, Iqbal says there will be no fragrance of love of the Prophet (Peace be upon him) present near him.

Iqbal says the one who was served drink of love of Prophet (Peace be upon him) in European glass, you would never guess if he has the lover of the Prophet (Peace be upon him).

Iqbal said

دانش حاضر حجاب اکبر است

بت پرستو، بت فروشو، بت گر

Danish e Hazir hijab e akbar asat

but parasto but furusho but gar

Iqbal says that the modern education and intellect of ذurope it is the biggest idol that hinders a man from reaching the Prophet (Peace be upon him). It makes new idols of theories then sell those idols and then ask to worship those idols. This is what Iqbal has instructed us. And then told at the end

زندگی گیرد بایں قانون ثبات

zindgi geerat baeen qanoone sabat.

Iqbal says if the Muslim Ummah wants to again live with respect and dignity, that is only possible be following the religion of the Prophet (Peace be upon him). There is no other way of making the Ummah great again.

سرود رفته باز آید که ناید؟

نسیمی از حجاز آید که ناید؟

Sarood rafta baz ayad ke na ayad

Naseemi az hijaz ayad ke na ayad

سرآمد روزگار این فقیری

دگر دانای راز آید که ناید؟

Saramad rozgare een faqeeri

Digar danay raz ayed ke na ayed

Iqbal says I have opened the secrets, now if a person with indide information comes again in future, he would tell you what is the secret of the religion of the Prophet (Peace be upon him) and what is the love of the Prophet(Peace be upon him). And at the end he said and left

کی محمد(صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم) سے وفا تو نے تو ہم تیرے ہیں

یہ جہاں چیز ہے کیا لوح و قلم تیرے ہیں

Ki Muhammad (Peace be upon him) say wafa tone to haum tere hain

Ye jahana cheez hay kiya loho kalam tere hain

Q. That menas you think that the situation after 1400 years is same as it was then. And this matter shoud be dealt in the same light as it were dealt with 1400 years ago by the Sahabah Ikram and the Prophet (Peace be upon him).

It is not me who is saying this. This is in Ibne Maja Shareef, a book from six authentec Ahadeeth books, it is on its first page. My lord (Peace be upon him) said:

تَرَكْتُكُمْ عَلَى مِثْلِ الْبَيْضَاءِ ‏‏‏‏‏‏لَيْلُهَا كَنَهَارِهَا

taraktukum aa mithlil baidai lailuha wa nharuha

The religion I am leaving to you, its day is day and its night is also day.

‏‏‏‏‏‏لَا يَزِيغُ عَنْهَا بَعْدِي إِلَّا هَالِكٌ،

La yazeeghu anha ba’di illa halikun

He instructed, Only he will turn his face away from my religion who is going to be destructed.

Till the day of Qyamah (resurection), deen will keep shining.

It is we who have changed. It is me, in who darkness has been produced but I though it were religion that had something to do with it. Relegion (Deen) is the same shining Deen. Yes the darkness was inside me and I tried to blame that darkness on. May Almighty Allah awardness greatness to Islamic Ummah with this religion.
