Part 16

It is Sunnah Muakkadah to make ghusl for every Jumu’ah prayer. One should recite Surah The Cave on Jumu’ah day (this is Sunnah). Likewise we should try to reach the mosque before the Imam ascends the mimbar in order to receive special blessings from Allah 3%. Even though Jumu’ah is not compulsory on women, they should attend as much as possible in order to grow in Imam. If a male should miss three Jumu’ah prayers consecutively he has committed a grave sin in Al Islam. Jumu’ah prayer is not compulsory on the traveller, the sick and the prisoner because he is not free. There is no harm in delivering the khutba in a language other than the Arabic language because the purpose of the khutba is to guide the ummah; so how can you guide the people if the khutba is not in a language that they understand.

There is not a single Prophet who had a nocturnal emission (wet dream) for verily nocturnal emission is from the Shaitaan.

There will be no Mahdi and no Isa “i.e. the return of Jesus.

This fabricated khabar contradicts the Qur’an and Sunnah. The coming of Isa 2%!) was made mention of in The Holy Qur’an as well as in many authentic traditions of the Holy Prophet 34. Thus it’s not befitting of a Muslim to reject faith in it. In regards to the return of Isa =), Allah 3& said:

__ Ibn Kathir said that this ayah is referring to the return of Isa **3\ at the end of time. He shall return as an Imam who will rule with equality and justice. '*"

__. The number of ahaadith referring to the descent of Isa *%=41\ in the end of time have reached the level of Mutawaatir.

On the authority of Abu Huraira (ra) who said: “The Apostle of Allah has said: By Him in whose hands is my soul, surely Isa*83\ the son of Maryam will soon descend amongst you as a just ruler; he will break the cross and kill the pigs and there will be no Jizya (i.e. taxation taken from non-Muslims). Money will be in abundance so that nobody will accept it. Anda

single prostration to Allah will be better than the whole world and what it contains. ”'?

It is the aqeedah of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jamaa’ah that the Mahdi will appear in the end of time to lead the Muslims to glory and victory over their enemies. He shall do so by bringing all the Islamic regimes under his dominion and rule. The Holy Prophet 28 said in this regard: “If there is one day left of this dunya Allah 3% shall prolong that day until a man from my household appears. His name will be like mine and his father’s name i.e. Muhammad Ibn Abdullah. He shall fill the earth with equality and istice the way it is filled with tyranny and oppression,"

The Shias exaggerate in their belief about the coming of the Mahdi. They claim he is their twelfth Imam whose name is Muhammad Ibn Hasan Al Askaree. He disappeared at the age

of five and today he is one thousand and fifteen years old and he is (they believe) still alive. He is residing in a tunnel and he shall re-emerge as the Mahdi. When he comes he shall put life into Abu Bakr (ra) and Umar (ra), resurrect them from their graves and crucify them because they were the two idols of Quraish who usurped the caliphate from Ali (ra). This aqeedah of the Shias is farfetchedness and no one believes in it except a person who is suffering from animal stupidity, pathetic insanity and chronic hypocrisy.

The Mahdi shall come from the lineage of my uncle Abbaas.

This fabricated khabar is in conflict with the authentic tradition of the Prophet 28. Thus the Holy Prophet BE said about the Mahdi: “Zhe Mahdi shall be from my family, from the lineage of Fatima. ”!

It is the belief of Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaa’ab that the Mahdi will be from the lineage of Fatima and not the lineage of Al Abbaas or anyone else.

“There is nothing in the heavens above nor the earth below which is like unto Him, and He is All-Hearer the All-Seer.”"”

Likewise Allah 3 said in this regard:

“Say He is Allah, the One. Allah As Samad i.e. the SelfSufficient Master, whom all creatures need, He neither eats nor drinks, He begets not nor was He begotten, and there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him.”

Make your Tawassul with my Glory (jahh) for verily my Glory in the sight of Allah is great.

The people who believe that it is permissible to make

tawassul with the Glory of the Prophet 23 rely heavily on the hadith of the blind man.

‘68 Surah Al-Iklas 112

It was reported by Ahmad and others with an authentic chain of narrators from Uthmaan Ibn Haneef (ra): “A blind man came to the Prophet “8 and said, supplicate to Allah that He should cure me of my blindness. So he said if you wish I will supplicate to Allah for you and if you wish I will delay that, for that is far better for you. So he the blind man said supplicate to Him. So he ordered the blind man to perform wudu and to perform it well, and to pray two rakahs, and to supplicate with this dua “O Allah I ask You and I turn to You by means of Your Prophet Muhammad (i.e. by means of his Du’aa) the Prophet of mercy, O Muhammad I have turned by means of you (i.e. your dua) to my Lord in this need of mine, so that it may be fulfilled for me, O Allah accept him as a supplicant on my behalf, and accept my supplication for him, (to be accepted for me)”. He said, so the man did it and he was cured of his blindness!

The people who promote the idea of making tawassul with the Glory of the Prophet 2% rely on this hadith for their evidence; however this hadith is evidence against them. Instead it’s an evidence for those who disallow this type of tawassul. This is so because the tawassul of the blind man was through means of the Holy Prophet’s ‘328 du’aa and the proofs for what we say are many taken, from the hadith itself, and most importantly:

1. The reason why the blind man came to the Prophet Be was for him to make a du’aa for him, as he said: “Supplicate to Allah and ask Him to cure me of my blindness”’. So he sought to use the Prophet’s du’aa as. a means of nearness to Allah, 5 since he knew that the du’aa of the Prophet = was more likely to be accepted

by AllahS% than the du’aa of others, and if the intention of the blind man was to seek nearness to Allah 3% by means of the Prophet’s Glory or status or his right, then he would have no need to go to the Prophet 328, or to ask him to make du’aa for him, rather he would have sat in his house, and supplicated to his lord saying for example “O Allah I ask You by the Glory of Your Prophet and his station with You that You cure me and enable me to see.” But that is not what he did. Why? Since he was an Arab and knew very well the meaning of tawassul in the Arabic language and knew that it was not a word said by a person with a need, mentioning the name of the person as an intermediary. Rather it had to include coming to one whom he believed to be pious and have knowledge of the book and the sunnah and ask him to make du’aa for him.
