عبداللہ بن عمررضي اللہ تعالی بیان کرتے ہیں کہ نبی صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے ارشاد فرمایا :

"صاحب قرآن کوکہا جاۓ گا کہ جس طرح تم دنیا میں ترتیل کے ساتھـ قرآن مجید پڑھتے تھے آج بھی پڑھتے جاؤ جہاں تم آخری آیت پڑھوگے وہی تمہارے درجات کی منزل ہوگي"

سوچئے مت

بسم اللہ الرحمٰن الرحیم
السلامُ علیکم و رحمۃ اللہ و برکاتہ

 

 

سوچئے مت

ایک مرتبہ ایک بہت ہی گناہ گار،

 اپنے زمانے کا مانا ہوا فاسق و فاجر شخص

 ایک جنگل کے قریب جا رہا تھا

 کہ اس نے ایک آدمی کو دیکھا

 جو اپنے سامنے زمین میں ایک سوکھی ٹہنی دباے بیٹھا تھا

اور الله کی عبادت کر رہا تھا،

 اس گناہ گار آدمی نے پوچھا تم کیا کر رہے ہو؟

اس نیک اور پرہیز گار بندے نے بتایا

میں سالوں سے دنیا سے دور اس ویرانے میں الله کی عبادت کر رہا ہوں،

جس دن میری عبادت قبول ہوگی

 اس دن یہ ٹہنی ہری ہو جاے گی

اسطرح مجھے پتا چل جاے گا.

اس گناہ گار کے دل میں جانے کیا آئی

 وہ بھی زمین میں ایک سوکھی ٹہنی دبا کر بیٹھ گیا اور عبادت کرنے لگا.

تھوڑی دیر بعد کہیں سے ایک آدمی کی مدد کی پکار آئی اور پکارنے والے نے نقاہت بھری آواز میں پانی مانگا.

دونوں نے سنی ان سنی کر دی،

 آواز دوبارہ آئی،

 تین چار مرتبہ کی پکار کے بعد گناہ گار نے نیک شخص سے کہا

 میں تو ابھی بیٹھا ہوں،

 تمہیں کتنا عرصہ ہوگیا ہے

 تم ذرا اٹھ کر اسے پانی تو پلا دو،

 میں ابھی ابھی بیٹھا ہوں اٹھنا نہیں چاہتا.
اس نیک بندے نے گناہ گار کو ڈانٹ کر کہا

 میری عبادت میں خلل نہ ڈالو

 میری ارتکاز ٹوٹ جاتا ہے.

جب مدد کی پکار مسلسل آتی رہی

 تو گناہ گار سے رہا نہ گیا،

 اس نے اپنی جگہ چھوڑی اور پانی پلانے چلا گیا،

 جب تھوڑی دیر بعد واپس آیا تو اس نے دیکھا اس کی ٹہنی ہری ہو چکی تھی،

 اور اس نیک بندے کی ٹہنی ویسی کی ویسی ہی تھی.

اگر آپ کسی کی مدد کرنے کی استطاعت رکھتے ہیں

تو پھر سوچئے مت،

 نجانے ہمارا کون سا عمل الله تعالیٰ کو پسند آجاے اور ہماری بخشش کا سبب بن جاے

" Sochiye Matt "

 

Ek Martaba Ek Bohut Hi Gunahgar

Apne Zamane Ka Manaa Hua Fasiq Wo Fajir

Shaqs Ek Jungle Ke Qareeb Se Jaraha tha

Ke Ussne Ek Aadmi Ko Dekha

Jo Apne Saamne Zameen  Me

Ek Sookhi Tehni Dabaye Baitha Tha

Aur Allah Ki ibadat Kar Raha Tha

Uss Gunahgar Aadmi Ne Pucha

Tum Kya Kar Rahe Ho ???

Neik Aur Parhezgar Bande Ne Bataya

Mein Saaloun Se Duniya Se Durr

Iss Veerane Me Allah ki Ibadat Kar Raha Hoon

Jis Din Meri Ibadat Qabool Hogi

Uss Din Ye Tehni Hari Hojayegi

Iss Tarah Mujhe Pata Chal Jayega

Uss Gunahgar Ke Dil Me Jaane Kya Aayi

Who Bhi Zameen MeEk Sookhi Tehni

Dabakar Baith Gaya Aur Ibadat Karne Laga

 

Thodi Deir Baad Kahin Se Ek Aadmi Ki Madad Ki Pukaar Aayi

Gunahgaar Ne Neik Shaqs Se Kaha

Mein Toh Abhi Baitha Hoon

Tumhe Kitna Arsa Hogaya Hai

Mein Abhi Abhi Baitha Hoon Uthna Nahi Chahta

Neik Bande Ne Gunahgaar Ko Daant Kar Kaha

Meri Ibadat Me Qalal Naa Daalo

Meri Artakaaz Toot Jata Hai

 

Jab Madad Ki Pukaar Musalsil Aati Rahi

Quraani Waqiaat - سروں کے اوپر پہاڑ‎

سروں کے اوپر پہاڑ

حضرت موسیٰ علیہ السلام نے توراۃ شریف کے احکام پڑھ کر بنی اسرائیل کو سنائے اور فرمایا کہ تم لوگ اس پر عمل کرو۔ جب بنی اسرائیل نے توراۃ شریف کے احکام کو سنا تو ایک دم انہوں نے ان احکام کو قبول کرنے سے انکار کردیا۔ اس سرکشی پر اللہ تعالیٰ کا یہ غضب نازل ہوا کہ ناگہاں کوہِ طور جڑ سے اُکھڑ کر ہوا میں اُڑتا ہوا بنی اسرائیل کے سروں کے اوپر ہوا میں معلق ہو گیا جو تین میل لمبی اور تین میل چوڑی زمین میں ڈیرے ڈالے ہوئے مقیم تھے۔ جب بنی اسرائیل نے یہ دیکھا کہ پہاڑ ان کے سروں پر لٹک رہا ہے تو سب کے سب سجدہ میں گر کر عہد کرنے لگے کہ ہم نے توراۃ کے سب احکامات کو قبول کیا۔ اور ہم ان پر عمل بھی کریں گے۔ مگر ان لوگوں نے سجدہ میں اپنے رخسار اور بائیں بھنوؤں کو زمین پر رکھا اور داہنی آنکھ سے پہاڑ کو دیکھتے رہے کہ کہیں ہمارے اوپر گر تو نہیں رہا ہے۔ یہی وجہ ہے کہ اب بھی یہودی اسی طرح سجدہ کرتے ہیں کہ بایاں رخسار اور بایاں بھنوؤں زمین پر رکھتے ہیں۔ بہرحال بنی اسرائیل نے جب توبہ کرلی اور توراۃ کے احکام پر عمل کرنے کا عہد کرلیا تو پھر یہ پہاڑ اڑ کر اپنی جگہ پر چلا گیا۔ قرآن مجید نے اس واقعہ کو چند جگہوں پر بیان فرمایا ہے مثلاً سورہ اعراف میں ہے کہ:۔

                   وَ اِذۡ نَتَقْنَا الْجَبَلَ فَوْقَہُمْ کَاَنَّہٗ ظُلَّۃٌ وَّظَنُّوۡۤا اَنَّہٗ
         وَاقِعٌۢ بِہِمْ ۚ خُذُوۡا مَاۤ اٰتَیۡنٰکُمۡ بِقُوَّۃٍ وَّاذْکُرُوۡا مَا فِیۡہِ لَعَلَّکُمْ تَتَّقُوۡنَ ﴿171﴾

ترجمہ کنزالایمان:۔اور جب ہم نے پہاڑ ان پر اٹھایا گویا وہ سائبان ہے اور سمجھے کہ وہ ان پر گر پڑے گا لوجو ہم نے تمہیں دیا زور سے اور یاد کرو جو اس میں ہے کہ کہیں تم پرہیز گار ہو۔ (پ9،الاعراف:171)

درس ہدایت:۔اس واقعہ سے معلوم ہوا کہ ناواقفوں یا سرکشوں کو کسی نیک کام کے کرنے یا اچھی بات کو قبول کرنے پر ڈرا دھمکا کر مجبور کرنا یہ عین حکمت اور خداوند قدوس کی مقدس سنت ہے۔  (واللہ تعالیٰ اعلم)

Fajr

Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem

Assalam Alaikum Wa Rahmath Ullahi Wa Barkatahu

 

 

 

It is Easy To Understand How The idea Of Muslims Praying Five Mandatory Prayers A Day is Misunderstood To Mean That They Pray Only Those Five Observances And No More. The Key Word Here is Mandatory.

Muslims Should Know The Great Status Of Fajr in The Sight Of Allah.Allah (SWT) Says (interpretation of the meaning) “ Establish Regular Prayers At The Sun’s Decline Till The Darkness Of The Night, And The Recital Of The Qur’an in The Fajr Prayer, For The Recital Of The Fajr is Witnessed”

(Al-Israa 17:78)

                                                        

In Addition, The Prophet (PBUH) Said:

“ Whoever Prays The Fajr Prayer in Congregation, it is As if He (or she) Had Prayed The Whole Night Long.

” [Muslim & Tirmidhi].

Now, To Show The Seriousness Of Missing This Prayer, We Present The Hades Of The Prophet (PBUH) “ The Most Burdensome Prayers For The Hypocrites Are ishaa And Fajr, But if They Only Knew What They Contain, They Would Come Even if They Had To Crawl.” [Ahmad]

 

 

The Fajr (dawn) Prayer is Amongst The Most important Acts Of Worship, Being One Of The Five Obligatory Prayers. Unfortunately Many Of Us Have Become So Used To Missing it At its Prescribed Time – Which Ends At Sunrise – That We Have Forgotten its Position in Our Religion, And Barely Feel Anything is Wrong When We Wake Up in The Morning For Work Or School Without Having Performed The Fajr Prayer. On The Other Hand, if One Of Us Was To Miss A Job interview Or A Flight, We All Know How Disappointed He Or She Would Feel.

Do Not Let Satan Benefit From His Actions. Do Not Put Off A Good That You intended To Do As You Never Know How Much Reward You Might Receive From The Hardships You Encounter While Trying To Achieve That Good.

Superiority of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr as-Siddiq Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu

The Ahl-e-Sunnat wa Jama'at has reached the consensus (Ijma') that after Prophets (Alaihim as-Salam) the best of creation are the four rightly guided Khalifas (Khulafa-e-Arba'a i.e. Hadrat Abu Bakr, Hadrat Umar, Hadrat Uthman and Hadrat Ali Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhum Ajma'een).

Their sequence of excellence is that Sayyiduna Abu Bakr as-Siddique is the most excellent, then Sayyiduna Umar, thereafter followed by the excellence of Sayyiduna Uthman and Sayyiduna Ali (Ridwanullahi Ta'ala Alaihim Ajma'een). Here I present few proclamations of the Classical Scholars and Jurists in this regard.

Proclamations of the Classical Scholars and Jurists

1. Imam al-Aazam Abu Hanifa gave one of the pithiest definitions of Sunnism in Islam:

"The doctrine of Ahl al-Sunna wal-Jama'a consists in preferring the Two Shaykhs (tafdil al-shaykhayn) [i.e. Abu Bakr and 'Umar over the rest], loving the Two Sons-in-law (hubb al-khatanayn) [i.e. 'Ali and 'Uthman], and wiping on leather socks (al-mas-h 'alal-khuffayn) [i.e. all three contrary to Shi'is]." [Khulasat al-Fatawa, Vol. 2, Page 381]

Narrated by Ibn 'Abd al-Barr in al-Intiqa' bi-Manaqib al-A'immat al-Thalathati al-Fuqaha' through several different chains. The same is also related from Sufyan al-Thawri by al-La'laka'i in his I'tiqad Ahl al-Sunna, Vol. 1, Page 152.

2. Imam al-Aazam Abu Hanifah in Fiqh Al-Akbar:

"The most superior and the best of all men after prophets – blessings and peace upon them – is Abu Bakr as-Siddiq. And then, Umar ibn al-Khattab al-Faruq. And then Uthman ibn Affan Dhu’n Nurayn. And then ali ibn Abu talib al-Murtada. May Allah be well pleased with them all; they were worshippers and steadfast on Truth and sided with Truth. We love all of them." [Fiqh Al-Akbar]

3. Imam al-Nawawi said in his Fatawa:

"Know that each of Abu Bakr and 'Umar is better than 'Ali according to the Consensus (ijma') of Ahl al-Sunna. The proofs for this in well-known sound hadiths are too famous and countless to be listed." [Fatawa Imam Nawawi, Page 264]

4. Imam al-Haytami said in his Fatawa Hadithiyya:

"The preferability of Abu Bakr over the other three and that of 'Umar over the  ther two is agreed upon by Consensus (mujma' 'alayh) of Ahl al-Sunna and there is no disagreement among them concerning this." [Fatawa Hadithiyya, Page 155]

5. Ali al-Qari in MinaH ar-Rawd al-Az’har, SharH Fiqh al-Akbar:

"The best of humans after prophets is Abu Bakr Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu"... "The superiority of Abu Bakr and Umar is an unanimous agreement in the Ahl as-Sunnah."[Sharh Fiqh al-Akbar]

6. Mulla 'Ali al-Qari said in Sharh al-Fiqh al-Akbar:

"It is patent that to prefer 'Ali to the Two Shaykhs contravenes the doctrine of Ahl al-Sunna wal-Jama'a according to what the totality of the Salaf follow." [Sharh al-Fiqh al-Akbar, Page 140]

7. Imam al-Daraqutni was once asked to arbitrate between two groups in Baghdad who differed whether 'Uthman was preferable to 'Ali or vice-versa. He relates:

"At first I withheld from taking any position and considered reserve best. But then I reached the conclusion that Religion dictated other than silence. So I said: 'Uthman is better than 'Ali with the agreement of the assembly of the Companions. This is the position of Ahl al-Sunnah, and it is the first knot of the Rafida one cuts loose." [Siyar A'lam al-Nubala', Dar al-Fikr Edition. Vol. 12, Page 483]

8. Al-Dhahabi quotes the above in his chapter on al-Daraqutni in Siyar A'lam al-Nubala' then comments:

"...Both 'Uthman and 'Ali possess great merits and precedence and are among the foremost shuhada'. However, the vast majority of the Community agree to give precedence to 'Uthman, and this is our position also; and better than both of them without doubt are Abu Bakr and 'Umar. Whoever differs with this is a hardened Shi'i."[Siyar A'lam al-Nubala', Dar al-Fikr Edition. Vol. 12, Page 483-492]

9. Imam Abu Jaafar Al-taHawi in Al-aqidah at-taHawiyyah:

"We affirm the succession after RasulAllah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam first for Abu Bakr Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu – on account of his superiority upon the entire ummah and being paramount among them. Then, Umar ibn al-Khattab Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu. Then, Uthman ibn affan Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu. Then, ali ibn Abu talib Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu. For they are the Rightly Guided Successors [khulafa ar-rashidun] and The Guiding Leaders [ayimmah al-muhtadun - in another version ayimmah al-mahdiyyun]."[al-Aqida at-Tahawiyyah]

10. Saad ad-Din Taftazani in his SharH al-MaqaSid, In the Fifth Discussion:

"The Imam (leader of Muslims) after RasulAllah SallAllahu Alaihi wa Sallam is Abu Bakr Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu. The Shiah say: ali. And we say: There is a unanimous agreement (ijmaa) of every person of importance (the ahl al-Hill wa’l aqd – from the council, prominent ones, nobles etc.) on this matter." [SharH al-MaqaSid]

11. In the Sixth Discussion, Saad ad-Din Taftazani says:

"Superiority, according to us [ahl as-sunnah] is according to the order of succession (of Khalifahs)." [SharH al-MaqaSid]

12. Ali al-ushi in Bad-yi’l Amali and ali al-Qari in its commentary: daw al-Maali

وللصديق رجحان جلي ... على الصحاب من غير احتمال
And Siddiq has a prominence and superiority
Upon all companions without any doubt

وللفاروق رجحان وفضل ... على عثمان ذي النورين عالي
And Faruq has prominence and superiority
Upon Uthman – he of the two lights, the lofty

وذو النورين حقا كان خيرا .... من الكرار في صف القتال
And Dhu’n Nurayn has the right, that he is superior to
al-Karrar, the brave and unflinching in the face of battle

وللكرار فضل بعد هذا .... على الأغيار طرا لا تبال
And superiority is due to ali the brave, after this
Upon everybody else without any hesitation

13. Jawharah at-TawHid, Ibrahim al-Laqqani and its commentary TuHfatu’l Murid, Ibrahim al-Bajuri.

وخيرهم من ولي الخلافة .... وأمرهم في الفضلك الخلافة
And the best of them are the successors to khilafah
And the order of their superiority is like the khilafah.

14. Ibn al-Jawzi in Manaqib Ahmad relatedly said:

"Whoever prefers 'Ali to Abu Bakr maligns the Prophet; whoever gives 'Ali preference over 'Umar maligns the Prophet and Abu Bakr; and whoever gives 'Ali preference over 'Uthman maligns the Prophet, Abu Bakr, 'Umar, and the Emigrants. Nor do I believe that the deeds of such a person are accepted." [Manaqib Ahmad, Page. 162]

15. In the very beginning of his Kashf Mushkil Hadith al-Sahihayn in four volumes, in print, Ibn al-Jawzi mentions the anecdote of a Rafidi asking a Sunni:

"Who is nobler than five under a cloak, the sixth of whom is Gibril?" (in reference to the established hadith wherein the Prophet, upon him blessings and peace, gathered Sayyida Fatima, her two sons and her husband under his cloak) whereupon the Sunni replied: "Two in the cave, the third of whom is Allah" (in reference to the verse of Qur'an and hadith of the Prophet and Abu Bakr in the cave on the way to Madina).

16. In Nazm al-Mutanathir min al-Hadith al-Mutawatir, al-Alim al-Rabbani, al-Sayyid Muhammad Jafar al-Idrisi al-Kattani (d. 1927) mentioned:

"The Ahadith on the Afdhaliyya of Abu Bakr over the Sahaba are mutawatir by meaning."[Nazm al-Mutanathir min al-Hadith al-Mutawatir Page 202]

He quotes Qastallani's Irshad al-Saari Baab Tafadhul Ahl al-Iman fi al-A'man from the Book of Imaan who quotes Ijma' of Ahl al-Sunnah on this. He also quotes Ibn Hajar from al-Sawa'i al-Muhriqa and Ibn Taymiyya from al-Wassiyyat al-Kubra who mention that it the reports are mutawatir.

17. al-Sayyid Yusuf al-Nabhani quotes Fatawa Ibn Hajar, in his al-Sharaf al-Mu'abbad, who says in its khatima:

"It has been soundly narrated from Ali himself: the best of people after the Prophet is Abu Bakr then Umar and then someone else... it is from this that the Ahl al-Sunnah from the Sahabah and Tabiun and those after them agree (ijma) that Abu Bakr is absolutely excellent among all Sahabah and then Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both)." [al-Sharaf al-Mu'abbad, Page 207]

18. Imam Yusuf bin Ismail an-Nabhani mentions that Ibn Hajar was questioned on another occasion whether the excellence of one over the other among the four was qat'iyya or Ijtihadiyya to which he replied that

"The excellence of Abu Bakr over all is Mujma' alayh among Ahl al-Sunnah and there is no dispute in this, and consensus implies qata'." [al-Sharaf al-Mu'abbad, Page 208]

19. Imam Sha'rani quotes Abu Bakr al-Ayyash in his Minan who said:

"If Abu Bakr, Umar and Ali ever came to me for something, I would attend Ali first for his close relation with the Messenger of Allah, and I would prefer falling from the sky to the earth over giving Ali preference (in fadhila) over the two". [al-Sharaf al-Mu'abbad, Page 209]

20. Shaykh Nabhani quotes a hadith from Musnad al-Bazzar from Usayd bin Safwan in which the demise of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr may Allah be pleased with him and Ali's words in his manaqib are narrated. Sayyiduna Ali directly speaking to the former on his deathbed after his demise calls him

"most excellent of the Sahabah in his Manaqib",
"greatest of them in his rank",
"most noble of them in his station", and
"most honoured among them in the Messenger's court"!! [al-Sharaf al-Mu'abbad, Page 193]

21. It is written in renowned Islamic Fiqh books, Fatawa Khulasa and Khazanat al-Musannifin, that:

“Anyone, who claims that Hadrat Mawla Ali (Karam Allahu wajh al-Karim) is superior to all companions, is a heretic, and a wrongdoer.”

a. Fatawa Khulasa, in ‘Kitab al-Salat’ (chapter of Salah) Section: 15
b. Khazanat al-Musannifeen, in the chapter of ‘Kitab al-Salat’ (Book of Salah) in the section ‘To follow a Rafidhi in Salat, is it right or wrong’?

22. It is stated in Fateh al-Qadeer, Sharah “Hidaya” and Hashiyyah on “Tabi’een al-Salamah” that:

“Anyone, who prefers Mawla Ali above the other three rightly guided Caliphs, is a misled.”

a. Fateh al-Qadeer, Sharah (a commentary) on the most renowned and reliable Fiqh book “Hidaya”, Printed in Egypt, Vol 1, Page 248
b. Hashiyyah (a commentary) on the Fiqh book “Tabi’een al-Salamah”, by Allama Ahmad as-Salabi, Printed in Egypt, Vol 1, Page 135

23. It is also written in the following Fiqh books “Bada’eh”, “Bazaziyyah”, “Asabah”, “Fan al-Sa’ani”, “al-Haf al-Abrar wal-Basair”, “Fatawa Qurwiyyah” and “Waqiat al-Muftiyyin”, and all these books have quoted references from another most authentic and renowned Fiqh book “Fatawa Khulasa”, that:

“Anyone, who prefers Hadrat Mawla Ali (Karam Allahu wajh al-Karim) over them (Shaykhain) is a misled and heretic.”

a. Bada’eh, Vol 3, Page 264
b. Bazaziyyah, Vol 3, Page 319
c. Asabah - Printed in Egypt, Page 187
d. Fatawa Qurwiyyah - Printed in Egypt, Vol 1, Page 25
e. Waqiat al-Muftiyyin - Printed in Egypt, Page 13

24. It is mentioned in another authentic and most renowned Fiqh book “Majma al-Anhar”, Sharah (a commentary) on the book “Multaqi al-Abhar”, that:

“Tafdhili, those who prefer Hadrat Mawla Ali Radi Allahu Anhu above the other three Caliphs are misled. [Majma' al Anhar - Printed in Istanbul, Vol 1, Page 105]

25. Sayyiduna Meer Abdul Wahid Hussayni Zaidi Wasti Bilgraami has written in his ‘Sabaa Sanabil Sharif’:

After Hadrat Abu Bakr comes the excellence of Hadrat Umar, then Hadrat Uthman and then Hadrat Ali. He who does not accept Hadrat Ali as the Khalifa is from the Kharijees and he who regards him (Hadrat Ali) to be more excellent than Hadrat Abu Bakr and Umar is from the Raafdhis. [Sab'a Sanabil, Page 10]

Conclusion

There is an Ijma' of the Ahl al-Sunnah wa al-Jama’ah on the fact that Sayyiduna Abu Bak Al-Siddiq is the most superior amongst the companions of our beloved Prophet (Peace be upon Him and Allah is pleased with them all). After him comes the excellence of Hadrat Umar, then Hadrat Uthman and then Hadrat Ali Ridwanullahi Ta'ala Alaihim Ajma'een.They all were pious worshippers and steadfast on Truth and sided with Truth and we love all of them.

He, who believes that Sayyiduna Ali or any other companion is more superior above Sayyiduna Abu Bakr, is misguided from the Ahl al-Sunnah wa al-Jama'ah. The true Love for Sayyiduna Ali Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu will only and only be valid and beneficial when his teachings, Aqida and Iman is also followed. The Ahl al-Bayt should themselves talk more often about the tafhdil of Sayyiduna Abu Bakr  as-Siddiq Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu as this is mass-narrated from Sayyiduna Ali Karram Allahu Wajh al-Kareem himslef, and a sunnah of his.

And Allah Most high alone gives guidance!!
