In defense of the Prophet: What was the Prophet Muhammad instructed to follow?

"He sends down water from the cloud, then watercourses flow (with water) according to their measure, and the torrent bears along the swelling foam, and from what they melt in the fire for the sake of making ornaments or apparatus arises a scum like it; thus does Allah compare truth and falsehood; then as for the scum, it passes away as a worthless thing; and as for that which profits the people, it tarries in the earth; thus does Allah set forth parables." Sura 13/17

Allah gives us Muslims the GREEN light to DEBATE :

"You shall invite to the path of your Lord with wisdom and kind enlightenment, and DEBATE with them in the best possible manner. Your Lord knows best who has strayed from His path, and He knows best who are the guided ones." Sura 16/125 One of the best things I like about discussions is debating is good and it is healthy; debating is intellectually stimulating. Debating is one of the best civilized ways to handle a dispute or a conflict and many people would rather kill or go to war over especially religion. You can also learn a great deal from debating or attending debates. Why? Well if we look at it from a scientific point of view-debates will give people who don't know the argument and opposing arguments a chance to analyze and examine all apposing views and all opposing arguments, this will better enable people to make a informed decision on what is truth. People will not be able to see the TRUTH, if they cannot detect the FALSEHOOD. In the absence of TRUTH, FALSEHOOD appears to be TRUE and this is why debating is the best tool that one can use to eradicate FALSEHOOD and reach the TRUTH. Debating is using the Mind, the Pen, the Mouth... "And say: Truth has (now) arrived, and falsehood perished: for falsehood is (by its nature) bound to perish, Sura 17/81

In the Hebrew Scriptures it says:

PRESENT YOUR CASE, says Yahweh. SET FORTH YOUR ARGUMENTS... Isaiah 41:21

The Qur'an says:

"AND DO NOT PURSUE THAT OF WHICH YOU HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE. Indeed, the hearing, the sight and the heart - about all those [one] will be questioned." Sura 17/36 Debating is not for every one as we can see but some people have to realize that in the atmosphere of debating things like this come with the territory. Debating is not for the

soft hearted, the turn the other cheek type of character. But any way, go back and analyze people's statements and see who provides the most evidence backed by the Qur'an. I'm am just here to present the FACTS and if any body can refute my position about the Tawrah, the Injil are not corrupted or lost according to the Qur'an, the Hadith and Sunnah are not validated in the Qur'an, the Children of Israel are not a nation and are dead and gone and are not scattered throughout Allah's earth, then I will have to submit, but this has not been done.

We see a lot of people who come here instead of providing clear proofs, evidence these Muslims are half in and half out of the Qur'an, shuffling and jiving, then asking questions to answer question and they debate with asking questions rather then go inside the Qur'an to prove their point.

According to those Muslims who fights and defend the Hadith and Sunnah
Sunnah: The legal way or ways, orders, acts of worship and statements of the Prophet that are ideals and models to be followed by Muslims. For some Muslims, the term Sunnah means nothing. It carries no weight in their lives nor does it inspire them to correct their actions accordingly. Through this prevailing ignorance, it has become a word which is outdated. But the reality is such, that by us rejecting this divine institution, we have taken ourselves down the slippery road of destruction and misery. To reject the Sunnah is to reject the beautiful religion of Islaam. And to reject Islaam, it to humiliate and degrade oneself, both in this world and the next. So

What is the Sunnah?

Linguistically, Sunnah is an Arabic word which means a path or a way. However, Islaamically, it is a primary source of law taken from the sayings, actions and approvals of the Prophet Muhammad. As Muslims we believe that the law Prophet Muhammad came with, is a divine revelation from our Creator, Allaah. However many people
4|Page

believe that the Qur'aan is the only form of divine revelation, as it is the literal word of Allaah. This view is incorrect as it contradicts the Qur'aan itself. About the Prophet Muhammad, Allaah says: Your companion (Muhammad) is neither astray nor being misled. Nor does he speak of his own desire. It is (only) the revelation with which he is inspired (Surah An-Najm 53:2-4). Thus as Muslims, we are required to believe that the Qur'aan and Sunnah go hand in hand together as our sources of legislated law. Both are revelation from Allaah, the most High. The Qur'aan is composed of the actual words of Allaah, whereas the Sunnah is expressed through the words, actions and approvals of the Prophet Muhammad. Another difference is that the Qur'aan is recited formally in the prayers whereas the Sunnah is not. As a way of life, Islaam is perfect and complete. However, such are the times that we live in, that some of the liberal elite from the Muslims choose to deny aspects of Islaam to suit their own desires. It is even more sad, that many choose to deny the Sunnah in particular. However this is clearly wrong, as the saying of the Prophet indicates: I have been given the Qur'aan and something similar to it besides it. Yet a time will come when a man leaning on his couch will say follow the Qur'aan only; what you find in it permissible, take as permissible, and what you find as forbidden, take as forbidden. But verily what the Messenger of Allaah has forbidden is like what Allaah has forbidden. The words of the Arabian Prophet ring truthfully in our ears again. Today there are a group of people in Pakistan called the Pervezies who say exactly as the Prophet foretold. They firmly insist that the Qur'aan is the only source of law to be followed. Thus, they neither consider the Sunnah a source of law, nor a regulation of our daily affairs. This has led to many Muslim scholars declaring (and rightly so) that the Pervezies are not Muslims. So

Why do we need the Sunnah?

Before the advent of the Prophet Muhammad, every nation on this planet had received a Messenger. The purpose of these Messengers was to instruct their people in how to worship Allaah correctly. The Prophet Muhammad was no exception to this. If we had been given the Qur'aan on its own, then most of us who are Muslims would have gone astray through our own interpretations of this book. Rather, Allaah through his mercy, sent a noble Messenger who came to explain this Qur'aan so that the people of the earth may understand their Creator better: We have revealed the reminder (Qur'aan) to you (O Muhammad) in order that you explain to the people what has been revealed to them, that perhaps they may reflect (Surah An-Nahl 16:44). By explaining the Qur'aan
5|Page

through his words and actions, the Prophet through his Sunnah, gives us the best example of how this book is to be understood and practiced. This is why Allaah says: Indeed in the Messenger of Allaah you have the most beautiful pattern of conduct (Surah Al-Ahzab 33:21). Our need for the Sunnah is so great, that without it our religion would be incomplete. In fact, this is the exact predicament which all the other religious scriptures find themselves in. Books such as the Bible and the Baghvad Gita, are so lacking in a divine explanation, that one can never understand (from them) as how to worship Allaah properly. As Muslims we do not have this worry, because the Sunnah is our divine explanation. The Qur'aan commands us to worship Allaah through prayer, fasting, charity etc., but it does not inform us of how to perform these duties practically. It is through his infinite Wisdom, that Allaah has sent us a practical example in the form of the Prophet and his teachings. The Prophet's adherence and practice of the Qur'aan was so exemplary, that upon being asked about his character, his wife Aisha said: his character was that of the Quraan. So

Is it obligatory to follow the Sunnah?

Obeying Allaah is without doubt, obligatory. So when Allaah says: Whosoever obeys the Messenger, has indeed obeyed Allaah (Surah An-Nisa 4:80), it should be clear that one has obeyed Allaah by obeying the Messenger. Furthermore Muhammad said: whosoever disobeys me, disobeys Allaah. Following the Sunnah is clearly an obligation upon every Muslim. The obligation is stressed even more when Allaah says: But no, by your Lord, they can have no faith, until they make you (O Muhammad) judge in all disputes between them, and find in themselves no resistance against your decisions, and accept them with full submission (Sura An-Nisa 4:65) and: It is not fitting for a believer, man or woman, when a matter has been decreed by Allaah and His Messenger to have any choice in the matter. If anyone disobeys Allaah and His Messenger he is clearly astray (Surah Al-Ahzab 33:36). As Muslims we know that when Allaah or His Messenger decree something for us, it will always benefit us, even if we do not realize it. Thus, submitting to the Messenger is only there for our benefit and not to oppress us, as some mistakenly believe. It must also be remembered that besides being the Messenger of Allaah, Muhammad was an Arab man living in seventh century Arabia. This meant that he had his own personal tastes and preferences just like any other mortal. These preferences are clearly
6|Page

distinguished from the Islamic law which is binding upon everyone. Thus, his personal Sunnah is clearly distinct from the legal Sunnah which he brought. An example of this distinction is when the Prophet came to Madeenah and found the inhabitants artificially pollinating the date palm trees. When he asked them why they did so, they replied that it was their habit. He suggested to them that maybe if they did not do it; it may be better. So they gave it up and the following year their crop was greatly diminished. When they told him of this he replied: I am only a human being. When I issue any command to you regarding your religion, then accept it, but when I issue any command to you based on my own opinion, I am merely a human being. Islaam is a religion which singles out Allaah alone for worship. It is for this reason that the possibility of Muhammad being anything more than a man, is totally absurd. As him being the Messenger of Allaah we believe that his Sunnah is infallible, but at the same time we maintain a perfect balance by remembering the words of Allaah: Say (O Muhammad) : I am only a man like you (except that) it has been revealed to me that your God is one God (Surah Al-Kahf 18:110). True Muslims will follow Muhammad, not worship him. So

What are the benefits of the Sunnah?

One of the scholars of the past, Imam Malik, said: The Sunnah is like the ark of Noah. Whoever embarks upon it achieves salvation and whoever rejects it, is drowned. This salvation is the admittance into Paradise and avoiding the fire of Hell. Regret is a terrible state. But regret on the Day of Judgment will be even worse for the one who did not follow the Sunnah: And remember the day when the wrongdoer will bite at his hand and say: Oh! Would that I had taken the path of the Messenger (Surah AlFurqan 25:27). This regret will continue during the punishment: On the day the faces will be tossed about in the fire, they will say: Woe to us! Would that we had obeyed Allaah and his Messenger (Surah Az-Zukhruf 43:67). On the other hand, the one who adhered to the Sunnah will attain the ultimate benefit: Whoever obeys Allaah and his Messenger will be admitted to gardens beneath which rivers flow to live there (forever), and that will be the great achievement (Surah An-Nisa 4:13). This is further confirmed by the Prophet himself when he said: He who obeys me enters paradise, and he who disobeys me refuses to enter paradise. The sweetness of the Sunnah will also be tasted during this life. The vastness of the Prophet's way is such, that is produces a physical, spiritual and psychological benefit to
7|Page

its adherent. This fact is also recognized by non Muslim scientists who have discovered that the Sunnah is extremely accurate in its conformity with modern scientific data. Scientific and Medical facts which were recorded more then 1000 years ago, from the tongue of the Prophet, have only been recently discovered. Such findings prove that the Sunnah could only have been divinely revealed. Thus, the one who lives his life by this law will bring goodness upon himself and upon the rest of this decaying world. As for one who chooses to discard these divine rules, then that is a person who has lost a treasure which far outweighs any treasure that the earth can bring forward. A treasure which will bring eternal happiness. So1 We hope that what has been read, will encourage the reader to investigate into the way of this amazing man, and adhere to the law which he brought. Through investigation Insha'allaah (if God Wills) will come reform. And the one who reforms his life around the Sunnah of Muhammad, can be assured of a complete guidance: I have left two things among you, as long as you hold fast to them you will never go astray. They are the Book of Allaah and the Sunnah of His Messenger.

The main Sunnats emphasised and practised in our Jamaat include:

In the book, Hadith and Sunnah: Ideals and Realities it says:

And if all Hadith is given up, what remains but a yawning chasm of fourteen centuries between us and the Prophet? And in the vacuity of this chasm not only must the Quran slip from our fingers under our subjective whims for the only thing that anchors it is the Prophetic activity itself but even the very existence and integrity of the Quran and indeed, the existence of our Prophet himself become an unwarranted myth. One of the most energetic and productive minds of our time, succinctly put the case for Hadith by the name of Dr. Fazlur Rahman said, Only a dishonest or insane person will deny the importance of Hadith in its continuing role to guarantee the social, political, and cultural integrity of the Ummah. These Muslims who argue for Hadith claim that as anit Hadith argues that all Hadith are fabricated, largely in the third century of Islam and that the Quran alone is the source of Guidance for Muslims. Without any grounding either in scholarship or insight, they sometimes say that we tell them that Hadith is unreliable as guide to the Prophetic Sunnah. They say that we also argue that we say Hadith may be history, but it has no Shariah normativeness, even if Hadith is genuine, it contains no Sunnah for us. The Muslims who argue for Hadith believes that the key to understanding the Quran is the way the Quran was revealed and how it came to the Prophet Muhammad over a 23 year period according to them. They further believe that the ayats must be understood in their particular context in whch they were revealed before we can go on to discover their general and universal significance. Now as thinking people in which Allah instructs us to be the Quran is not meant to be a book whose injunctions are restricted to time and space. It gives immutable principles which are to be applicable in all times and eras such as the ear we are now living in. To suggest that the Quran is in need of the historical tales dominant in certain time of history for its exegesis / tafsir is to limit the Quran to just one particular era and this ear is the era of the Prophet and his companions and make it dependent on these conjectures is not validated in the Quran.

9|Page

Allah clearly refutes this perspective as Allah says the Quran is a Reminder to all nations:
"dhik'run (a Reminder) lil'lamna (to all the nations)." Sura 81/27 Allah also says that the Quran is: " hudan ( a guidance) lilnnsi" Sura 2:185 Allah says that the Quran was sent for all humanity of all times and all locations, the divine principles for formation and reformation of society and within the Quran Allah has given us everything a nation in the time of the Prophet up until now in 2013 need that is contained in Al-Quran. In fact, whenever An Nas will exist, the Quran will provide An Nas with divine values and these values are permanent and immutable, and do not change with the circumstances of time as we see how the laws and values of humans do. These permanent values of the Quran are as applicable in present times as they were in the past. The values of humans tend to conflict, contradict and at often times are oppressive. Whatever has been narrated in the Quran, even the reminders of previous nations and messengers, they are not presented as historical tales. In the Quran, Allah teaches us the basic principles and truth and we have to consider the whole of the Quran to be guidance and light for the times we live in, and seek the solutions to our present day problems from the divine injunctions, ordinances, laws, and commandments instead of digging up the historyical tales that are attributed to the past and then place the Book of Allah under their subjugation. In Arabic this is known as Asbaab ul nuzzul. What is the 'Asbaab ul nuzzul'? It suppose to mean the causes of revelation and historical backgrounds that are attributed to the revelation of verses, are known. Remember the Book of Allah, which is free from all discrepancies, is clear and distinct in its meaning, is applicable in all times, can never ever be subjected to a body of literature known as Asbaab ul nuzzul which truly investigate the Hadith we will found that they are: 1) incomplete, 2) contradictory with itself and established facts of science, 3) is accepted by one sect while rejected by the other, and 4) was compiled and collected by human beings who were not even present during the
10 | P a g e

period of Quranic revelation, but simply compiled there history by heresy and conjecture. To some extent the Muslims who argue and defend Hadith do a disservice to the Prophet and to the Quran. Allah says: Say, "We believe in Allah and that which has been sent down to us and that which has been sent down to Ibrahim (Abraham), Isma'il (Ishmael), Ishaq (Isaac), Ya'qub (Jacob), and to Al-Asbat [the offspring of the twelve sons of Ya'qub (Jacob)], and that which has been given to Musa (Moses) and 'sa, and that which has been given to the Prophets from their Lord. nufarriqu (We make no distinction) between any of them, and to Him we have submitted. Sura 2/136 What some of our Muslim brothers and sisters do is draw the line between the Prophet Muhammad and the rest of Allahs Prophets which goes against the instructions of the Quran. Allah instructs us nufarriqu (We make no distinction) between any of them however these Hadith advocates will say that Aishah said, he was the living Quran quoting an Hadith. They will also imply that the Quran itself describes for us that the Prophet was the best example for us to follow and then quote Sura 33/21 There has certainly been for you in the Messenger of Allah us'watun asanatun (an excellent pattern) for anyone whose hope is in Allah and the Last Day and [who] remembers Allah often. Sura 33/21 Understanding the Quran correctly, Allah does not in any way say that the Prophet Muhammad was the best example for us to follow. Allah makes it clear that he was; us'watun asanatun (an excellent pattern) for anyone whose hope is in Allah and the Last Day and [who] remembers Allah often. The Prophet Muhammad was an excellent pattern / example for us as other Prophets of Allah. Now, the irony is the Muslims who advocate for Hadith goes a step further and say that this us'watun is basically not found in the Quran but it is available to us in the Hadith. Does the Quran imply that we have to seek Hadith to get this us'watun and if the Quran doesnt imply this where can we find it if not the Quran?

11 | P a g e

The Advocates for Hadith claim without the Hadith we would be deprived of that example which through the centuries has guided Muslims towards excellence. Think about this very carefully, without that example what example are they talking about? The us'watun example given to us from Hadith is what they are referring to. Does the Quran say that the Prophet Muhammad can guide any one? Does Allah direct us in the Quran to look outside of it for extra divine guidance? These are some of the questions that will be discussed and dealt with clear evidence presented from the Quran later on in the research.

The Muslims who advocate for Hadith will misquote an ayat in favor of Hadith such as:
Certainly did Allah confer [great] favor upon the believers when He sent among them a Messenger from themselves, yatl (reciting) to them ytihi (His verses) wayuzakkhim (and purifying) them wayuallimuhumu (and teaching them) kitba (the Book) wal-ik'mata (and wisdom), although they had been before in manifest error. Sura 3/164 They will argue that the Hikmata (Wisdom) is the process of purification and this instruction in the meaning of the Quran is available to us in the Sunnah through the Hadith. They will add on to this by saying that the basic forms of worship, like the details of the five daily Salaat, the percentages of Zakat and the rules of fasting in their application would not have been known to us without the Hadith. Without the Hikmata (Wisdom / Sunnah) the Quran would have been at the mercy of all who wished to misinterpret it. They claim that the most serious error in understanding Islam is to reinterpret the Quran without having linking the Quran to the one whom the Quran was revealed. They will quote out of context: O ye who believe! Obey Allah, wa-a (and obey) rasla (the messenger) wa-ul (and those) amri (of you who are in authority) minkum (among you); and if ye have a dispute concerning any matter, refer it to Allah wal-rasli (and the messenger) if ye are (in truth) believers in Allah and the Last Day. That is better and more seemly in the end. Sura 4/59

12 | P a g e

They will say that when Allah says, Obey Allah, wa-a (and obey) rasla (the messenger) this means to obey the Prophet but there is never a time where Allah says to obey the Prophet. The basis of their argument is that the Prophet Muhammad received the Quran and passed it on to humanity and other than the Quran, his actions and words (recoreded in Hadith) was also divinely inspired. In other words, the Hadith are also divinely inspired according to them and everything that the Prophet said is also based upon wahyun (Revelation) this too will be dealt with further as I go along in this research. They will admit that all of the Messengers of Allah were sent as leaders of humanity to be obeyed but when it comes to the Prophet Muhammad he is the only exception to the rule of obedience and through obedience it doesnt limit to the Quran which are not the Prophets words but Allahs words, obedience is also to be found in the Prophets words recorded in Hadith. And We did not send any messenger except to be obeyed by permission of Allah. And if, when they wronged themselves, they had come to you, and asked forgiveness of Allah and the Messenger had asked forgiveness for them, they would have found Allah Accepting of repentance and Merciful. Sura 4/64

They will happily quote this ayat out of context to support their Hadith:
But no, by your Lord, they will not [truly] believe until they make you, judge concerning that over which they dispute among themselves and then find within themselves no discomfort from what you have judged and submit in submission. Sura 4/65 A question that needs to be asked is how did the Messenger judge, was it based upon his own judgement, ruling or was it based upon what was revealed to the Prophet. Again, this will be dealt with later on in the research. Allah says: "We will make you recite so you shall not forget, Except what Allah should will. Indeed, He knows what is declared and what is hidden." Sura 87/6-7

13 | P a g e

And those who disbelieve say, "Why was the Qur'an not revealed to him all at once?" Thus [it is] that We may strengthen thereby your heart. And We have spaced it distinctly. And they do not come to you with an argument except that We bring you bil-aqi (the truth) wa-asana (and the best) tafsran (explanation). Sura 25/32-33 Allah says the truth was brought to the Messenger and along with the truth Allah also came wa-asana (and the best) tafsran (explanation). What other tafsir / exegesis do we need other than the Quran itself to explain Allahs Message? In terms of the so called Ulama (Scholars) of Islam, Allah never says anything the Ulama among the Arabs. Allah does mention about the true Ulamau (Scholars) of this Deen of Islam who are the Learned / Scholars of the Children of Israle: And has it not been yatan (a sign) that yalamahu (know) ulamu (the Scholar / Learned) of the Children of Israel? Sura 26/197 However, those who advocate for Hadith claim that the Ulama (Scholars) the Arabs answered the challenge of Hadith fabrication with a level of study, investigation and hard work. These Scholars of Hadith are known as Muhaddithan. They are portrayed as individuals who have spent their lives in checking the geniuness of Hadith and in getting rid of the fabrications. According to the research the earliest times the Muslims have made a distinction between the legal traditions (Hadith al Ahkam) and the so called purely historical traditions called the Maghazi.

The Classification of books of Hadith

Books of Hadith have been classified into the following groups: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) Sahifahs Ajza Rasail or Kutub Musannafs Musnads Mujams Jamis
14 | P a g e

8) Sunans 9) Mustadrads 10) Mustakrajs 11) Arbainiya

The Sahifahs
The Sahifahs are collections of the alleged sayings of the Prophet as were written down by some of his companions during his life-time or by their followers in the next generation.

The Ajza
The Ajza are collections of the Traditions as have been handed down on the authority of one single individualbe he a companion or of any generation after him. The term Juz is also applied to such collections of Hadiths as have been compiled on a particular subject-matter....intention, the Vision of Allahetc.

The Rasail
The Rasail are collections of Hadith that deal with one particular topic out of eight topics into which the contents of the Jami books of Hadith may be generally classified. These topics are: 1) Belief and Dogma 2) Laws or Ahkam which are also known as Sunan and include all the subjects of Fiqh from Taharat or Purity to Wasaya or Exhortations 3) Ruqaq, Piety, Ascetiscism, Mysticism 4) Etiquette in eating, drinking, travelingetc. 5) Tafsir or commentary of the Quran 6) Tarikh and Siyar, historical and biographical matters which include, Cosmology, Ancient History, etc. and the life of the Prophet, of his companions and successors 7) Fitan, Crises 8) Appreciation and denunciation of persons, places The Rasail are also called (Kutub).

The Musannafs
15 | P a g e

The Musannafs are collections of Hadith in which the traditions relating to most of al the various topics mentioned above are put together and arranged in various books or chapters, each dealing with a particular topic. To this belong the Muwatta, or Imam Malik, the Sahih of Muslim.

The Musnad
The Musnad was originally used for such traditions as were supported by a complete uninterrupted chain of authorities (isnad) gong back to the companion who related it from the Prophet himself according to my research this is what they claim. Later on Musnad came to be used in the general sense of a reliable and authorative tradition. In this sense the term is also used for all reliable works in the Hadith literature, and works like the Sunan of al Darimi and the Sahih of Al Bukhari are called Musnads. But technically, it is used only for those collections of H adith in which they are arranged according to the names of the final authoraties by whom they are related, irrespective for their subject matter. The Musnads are: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) Abu Dawud Tayalist (204 A.H / 819 A.D) Ahmad b. Hanbal (233 A.H. / 847 A.D) Abdullah b Muhammadb. Abi Shaybah (237 A.H / 849 A.D) Uthman b. Abi Shaybah (237 A.H / 851 A.D) Abu Kaythamah (234 A.H. / 844 A.D)

He who collected Hadiths in the form of a Musnad is called a Musnid or a Musnidi.

The Mujam
The Mujam is generally applied to the works on various subjects as are arranged in alphabetical order. The geographical and the biographical dictionaries of Yaqut are called Mujam al Buldan and Mujam al Udaba because they are arranged alphabetically. These Musnads are collected Hadith arranged under the names of the companions in their alphatical order and are known as Mujam al Sahabah.

The Jami
The Jami is collections of Hadith which contain traditions relating to all the various subject matters mentioned under the Rasail. The Sahih of Al Bukhari as well as the book of Tirmidhi is called Jami. However, the Sahih of Muslim is not described as Jami
16 | P a g e

because (unlike Bukhari) it does not contain traditions relating to all the chapters of the Quran.

The Sunan
The Sunan are collections of the traditions as contain Hadith al Ahkam (legal traditions) only and leave out those traditions which relate to historical and other matters. The collections of traditions made by Abu Dawud, NasaI and many other traditionalists are known as Sunan works.

The Mustadraks
The Mustadraks are collections of Hadith in which the compiler having accepted the conditions laid down by any previous compiler, collects together such other traditions as fulfill those conditions and were missed by the previous compiler. To this class belongs the Mustadrak of Al Hakim who collected together such Hadiths as fulfilled the conditions laid down by Bukhari and Muslim and were not included by them in their Sahihs.

The Mustakhrajs
The Mustakhrajs are collections of Hadith in which a later compiler of them collects together fresh Isnads for such traditions as were collected by a previous compiler on the basis of different chains of Isnad. To this class belong the Mustakhraj of Abu Nuaym Isfhani on the Sahihs of Bukhari and Muslim. According to them, Abu Nuaym Abu Nuaym gives fresh chains of Isnad for some of the traditions which were already included by Bukhari and Muslim in their Sahihs with different Isnads.

The Arbainiyat
The Arbainiyat are the collections of forty Hadiths relating to one or more subjects which may have appeared tobe of special interest to the compiler. An example of this class is the Arbain of Al Nawawi. Of all these eleven class of the collections of Hadiths, the Sahifahs, are allegedly suppose to be the earliest in origin. The Mujams, the Mustadraks, Mustakhrajs and the Arbainiyat must have came later. The Ajza and the Rasail in their technical sense described above also must have been later in origin and development than the Musannaf and the Musnad works.

17 | P a g e

According to these advocates for Hadith they argue that the Hadith together with the Quran served the Muslims as the main basis of their social structure.

Here is an indisputable challenge to the Sunnis and Shites

PRESENT ONE VERSE IN AL QUR'AN THAT SAYS EITHER ONE OF THE FOLLOWING: (1) We are suppose to follow Nataq-un-Nabi (Speech of Nabi)/ Sunnatu Rasoolullah (Sunnah of Messenger) by NAME or (2) We will get guidance from Nataq-un-Nabi (Speech of Nabi) / Sunnatu Rasoolullah (Sunnah of Messenger) by NAME or (3) We are suppose to believe in Nataq-un-Nabi (Speech of Nabi) / Sunnatu Rasoolullah (Sunnah of Messenger) by NAME ? or (4) Nataq-un-Nabi (Speech of Nabi) / Sunnatu Rasoolullah (Sunnah of Messenger) was revealed or sent down (nazala) to Muhammad by NAME? No Sunni or Shite with the name have been able to answer this simple challenge. See, the narrow path is the difficult path it takes time, energy, effort for us to see the truth, know the truth...how much time do you really take to truly investigate, study the Qur'an? When do you have the time when youre busy studying the Hadith? Hadith are nothing more than a mere distraction from Allah's Books. Hadith are not revealed as wahyun (Revelations).

18 | P a g e

Not I, but Allah tells us that the Quran is COMPLETE, PERFECT, FULLY DETAILED AND THAT IT EXPLAINS ALL THINGS in Sura 6/114-115; 16/89; 6/38; 12/111 and the question is do we believe what Allah says about His Book? Do we believe the Qur'an has everything we need to know about how we should practice this din He established for us and do we believe the Qur'an has this example of our Prophet Muhammad because if we don't believe the Qur'an contains the good example of the Prophet this means we have to put down the Qur'an the very Qur'an Allah says that is Complete, Perfect, Fully Detailed and that it explains all things and pick up books written by man. This would mean the Qur'an is deficient and is in need of man's assistance because it lacks the Prophet Muhammad's example so now we have to go pick up a book of Hadith the very books filled with contradictions and other things we can't believe. There are two Hadith presented by two sects that claims that both Sects are guided better than the two, Sunni versus Shites. Both Sects claims to have the authentic Hadith and Sunnah of Muhammad. Yet, both Sects are Hadith rejecters of each others Hadith, isn't this convenient? How can this type of confusion be from one man if both groups claim to have the most authentic Volumes of Hadith? Yet, between the Sunnis and Shites neither of them can present one ayat verifying their sources of Hadith to be validated in Qur'an, something to think about.

Why is the Messenger of Allah going to say that his people took the Quran as a forgotten thing? This is very important to know.

The Prophet which represents the human side of the Messenger

We have to remember as a Prophet of Allah this doesnt guarantee him necessarily being free from error. The prophet is the man himself which represents his life, in his private affairs, in his social relations with those around him, and in his human conduct. Now this is coming down to his human conduct, he was susceptible to rebuke from Allah.

For this reason, he used to be reprimanded in his capacity as a prophet.

Allah says: O you prophet, why do you prohibit what Allah has made lawful for you, just to please your wives? Sura 66/1 No prophet shall acquire captives, unless he participates in the fighting. You people are seeking the materials of this world, while Allah advocates the Hereafter. Sura 8/67 Even the prophet cannot take more of the spoils of war than he is entitled to. Anyone who takes more than his rightful share will have to account for it on the Day of Resurrection. Sura 3/161

And when the human side of the Messenger, hence the Prophet sought forgiveness for some of his relatives, our Allah said to him:
Neither the prophet, nor those who believe shall ask forgiveness for the idol worshipers, even if they were their nearest of kin, once they realize that they are destined for Hell. Sura 9/113 Concerning a very hard battle the believers fought, the Almighty says: Allah has redeemed the prophet, and Muhjireen (the immigrants) and the supporters who hosted them and gave them refuge (Ansr), who followed him during the difficult times. That is when the hearts of some of them almost wavered. Sura 9/117

20 | P a g e

Allah also instructed the prophet to be reverent of Him, and to follow the revelation, and to trust in Him, and in prohibiting him from obeying the disbelievers: O you prophet, you shall reverence Allah and do not obey the disbelievers and the hypocrites. Allah is Omniscient, Most Wise. Follow what is revealed to you from your Lord. Allah is fully Cognizant of everything you all do. And put your trust in Allah. Sura 33/1-3 Now all of the above one thing in common that any one can see clearly is that Allah is him as a Prophet and not as a Messenger.

The Quranic discussion about the relationship between the Prophet and his wives who are the mothers of the believers also addresses him as a Prophet and not as a Messenger:
O prophet, say to your wives, If you are seeking this life and its vanities, then let me compensate you and allow you to go amicably. Sura 33/28 The prophet had trusted some of his wives with a certain statement. Sura 66/3 When Allah was addressing the mothers of the believers, however, Allah didnt say O wives of the messenger, rather, it said: O wives of the prophet, if any of you commits a gross sin, the retribution will be doubled for her. This is easy for Allah to do. Sura 33/30 O wives of the prophet, you are not the same as any other women. Sura 33/32

Hence, this relationship with the people around him also addresses him as a prophet,
O prophet, tell your wives, your daughters, and the wives of the believers that they shall lengthen their garments. Sura 33/59 The prophet is closer to the believers than they are to each other, and his wives are like mothers to them. Sura 33/6 O you who believe, do not enter the prophets homes unless you are given permission to eat. Sura 33/53)
21 | P a g e

Others made up excuses to the prophet: Our homes are vulnerable, Sura 33/13) In light of this, the prophet is the man, in his behaviour, in his private and public social relations, for this reason, he was addressed as the prophet to follow the revelation.

Now we have the Messenger

Thus, when the prophet speaks with the Quran, he is the messenger who should be obeyed for the sake of Allah, We did not send any messenger except to be obeyed in accordance with Allahs will Sura 4/64 This is why Allah says whoever obeys the Messenger hence, obeys Allah because as the Messenger represents the voice of the Sender and the messenger conveys the message of the Sender. Whoever obeys the messenger is obeying Allah Sura 4/80 So we have the Prophet as a human being was the first to obey the Quranic revelation, and the first to implement it on himself. O you prophet, you shall reverence Allah and do not obey the disbelievers and the hypocrites. Allah is Omniscient, Most Wise. Follow what is revealed to you from your Lord. Allah is fully Cognizant of everything you all do. And put your trust in Allah. Sura 33/1-3 Whenever addresses the prophet remember, the Prophet himself was ordered to follow the Messenger, hence the revelation, and the instruction came to obey the messenger, that is, to obey the prophet when he spoke using the message, i.e. the Quran because as a Messenger the Prophet does not speak from his own desire he only speaks what he is instructed to speak. Say, Obey Allah, and obey the messenger. Sura 24/54 Why dont they study the Quran carefully? There does not occur a single instance in the Quran of Allah saying: Obey Allah, and obey the prophet, or obey Muhammad

22 | P a g e

Why is this important? Its very important because obedience is not due to human side of the Messenger which is the prophet who is a human being. It is not possible for any libasharin (human being) unto whom Allah had given kitba (the Scripture) wal-uk'ma (and wisdom) wal-nubuwata (and the prophethood) that he should afterwards have said unto mankind: Be slaves of me instead of Allah; but (what he said was): Be ye faithful servants of the Lord by virtue of your constant teaching of the Scripture and of your constant study thereof. Sura 3/79 So when the Prophet calls to the people as a messenger, it is due to the message, i.e. the messenger, i.e. the word of Allah which was revealed to the prophet, and which the prophet was the first to obey. Also remember this there does not occur a single instance in the Quran of the messenger being reprimanded. The prophet represents the human side of the messenger and he was tricked by the hypocrites. This occurred when one of the hypocrites stole something but some people found out and so the thiefs family felt shame because of what he did. So he and his family planned that he should put the stolen shield in an innocent Jews house at night. Then they went to the prophet in the morning claiming to be innocent. So the prophet was tricked and he even defended the thief; thus, the thief became innocent and the innocent became a thief. This is a story which happens in every time and place; where a criminal who committed a crime escapes accusation whilst the innocent person is jailed unjustly. The Quran mentions this story and transforms it from a historic incident which was specific to that time and place and to the people involved, into an affair relevant to all people in any time and place.

In the beginning, Allah admonished the Prophet instructed him to judge with the Book and warned him from being an advocate for the traitors:
We have sent down to you the scripture, truthfully, in order to judge among the people in accordance with what Allah has shown you. You shall not side with the betrayers. Sura 4/105 Allah is conveying to the Prophet that the Book was sent down truthfully so that the Prophet can judge among the people according to what Allah has shown him in the Book itself; judgment is sought from the Quran.
23 | P a g e

And because the prophet forgot to do so, he was told to ask for forgiveness in the following verse: You shall implore Allah for forgiveness. Allah is Forgiver, Most Merciful. Sura 4/106 Then, in the verse after that he was prohibited from defending those traitors who conspired to claim that a criminal was innocent, and to accuse the innocent: Do not argue on behalf of those who have wronged their own souls; Allah does not love any betrayer, guilty. They hide from the people, and do not care to hide from Allah, though He is with them as they harbor ideas He dislikes. Allah is fully aware of everything they do. Sura 4/107-108 Thereafter, Here you are arguing on their behalf in this world; who is going to argue with Allah on their behalf on the Day of Resurrection? Who is going to be their advocate? Sura 4/109 Can anyone help them on the Day of Resurrection or intercede on their behalf? Then, the following verses lay down the principle of personal responsibility: Anyone who commits evil, or wrongs his soul, then implores Allah for forgiveness, will find Allah Forgiving, Most Merciful. Anyone who earns a sin, earns it to the detriment of his own soul. Allah is Omniscient, Most Wise. Anyone who earns a sin, then accuses an innocent person thereof, has committed a blasphemy and a gross offense. Sura 4/110-112 That is, every person is responsible for their own sins, and if they sought forgiveness, then Allah will forgive them and if not then they will be taken to account for what they did and no-one will argue or intercede on their behalf on the Day of Resurrection, The transgressors will have no friend nor an intercessor to be obeyed. Sura 40/18

Allah says to the prophet:

If it were not for Allahs grace towards you, and His mercy, some of them would have misled you. They only mislead themselves, and they can never harm you in the least. Allah has sent down to you the scripture and wisdom, and He has taught you what you never knew. Indeed, Allahs blessings upon you have been great. Sura 4/113

24 | P a g e

Hence, that is, they tried to trick the prophet but the revelation came down and exposed them and everything went back to normal, and this is how the prophets affairs took place; according to the Quran. Because thats how he used to judge and speak; using the Quran and nothing but the Quran.

The word prophet has a single defined meaning, it is:

In the Quran the man who was chosen by Allah from among the people to inform him of the revelation so that he becomes a messenger. As for the word messenger, it has in the Quran many meanings, they are: 1. to signify the prophet: Muhammad was not the father of any man among you. He was a messenger of Allah and the final prophet. Sura 33/40 2. to signify Jibril: This is the utterance of an honorable messenger. Authorized by the Possessor of the Throne, fully supported. He shall be obeyed and trusted. Your friend is not crazy. He saw him at the high horizon. Sura 18/19-23 3. to signify the angels: the angels who record our works, Do they think that we do not hear their secrets and conspiracies? Yes indeed; our messengers are with them, recording. Sura 43/80 4. to signify a runner hence, someone who carries a letter or message from one person to another: like Josephs saying to the kings messenger go back to your lord in the verse: The king said, Bring him to me. When the messenger came to him, he said, Go back to your lord Sura 12/50 5. to signify the Quran or the message: intertwined with this meaning is the meaning of the message-bearing prophet who speaks with the revelation and that goes for all the instructions which endorse obeying Allah and His messenger. So we have all these verses point to obeying the word of Allah which Allah brought down to His messenger, and the messenger was the first to speak the revelation, and the first to practice it.

This final signification of the Quran, means that the messenger of Allah is present among us, even to this day, and that is the book of Allah which Allah will preserve till the Day of Resurrection.

25 | P a g e

How can you disbelieve, when these revelations of Allah have been recited to you, and His messenger is among you? Whoever holds fast to Allah will be guided in the right path. Sura 3/101 Basically, as the book of Allah is being recited, the messenger is present among us, and whoever holds fast to Allah and His book, Allah has guided him to the Straight Path. This remains valid at any time, and in any place so long as the Quran is preserved; and it will remain preserved and will serve as a proof for the creation till the rising of the Hour.

The word messenger in some Quranic verses signifies the Quran itself with the utmost clarity:
Anyone who gives up his home, emigrating to Allah and His messenger, then death catches up with him, his recompense is reserved with Allah. Sura 4/100 This verse sets out a general and continually-applicable law, which remains applicable even after the death of the Prophet. If we truly study this ayat we will see emigration for the sake of Allah and His messenger i.e. the Quran continues to be possible even after the death of the Prophet, so long as the Quran / the Reminder / the Message remains. Sometimes, the word messenger can only signify the Quran specifically without any other meaning; That you people may believe in Allah waraslihi (and His messenger), watuazzirhu (and reverence Him), watuwaqqirhu (and respect Him), watusabbihu (and glorify Him), day and night. Sura 48/9 The word messenger here signifies the word of Allah only, and does not signify the Prophet Muhammad as the messenger at all. The proof for this is that the pronoun which is suffixed to the word messenger o ccurs in singular form, thus Allah says watuazzirhu (and reverence Him), watuwaqqirhu (and respect Him), watusabbihu (and glorify Him). The use of the singular pronoun means that Allah and His messenger (the Reminder / His words) are not two separate entities rather; they are one and the same thing, for He did not say and reverence them both, and observe them both, and glorify them both, day and night.
26 | P a g e

Glorification is due only to Alah, alone. And there is no difference between Allah and His words, for Allah is one in His essence and in His attributes, Proclaim, He is the One and only Allah Sura 112/1 They swear by Allah to you, to please you, when Allah and His messenger are more worthy of pleasing Sura 9/62 If the messenger in this verse signifies the prophet Muhammad, He would have said are both more worthy of pleasing. However, the messenger here signifies the word of Allah only, which is why Allah and His messenger are referred to in the singular, which means Allah and His words. So, the prophet is Muhammad, the man, in his private and public life.

As for the messenger, he is the prophet when he utters wahyun Revelation hence the Quran and delivers the message:
O you messenger, deliver what is revealed to you from your Lord Sura 5/67 Whenever Allah orders the prophet to follow the revelation, Allah orders us all to obey Allah and the messenger, i.e. the message never the prophet.

There isnt a single instance in the Quran where Allah says:

the sole duty of the prophet is to deliver the message, rather, Allah says The sole duty of the messenger is to deliver the message Sura 5/99 And obey Allah and obey the Messenger and beware. Then, truly, if you turned away, then, know that only on Our Messenger is the delivering of Our clear message. Sura 5/92 but if they turn away, your sole mission is to deliver this message Sura 3/20 Therefore, delivering the message is associated with the message, just as the prophet is associated with the human side of the messenger in his life, his conditions, and his relations. The Quranic rule regarding this subject is always to limit the role and importance of the messenger to merely delivering the message. To deliver the message is to deliver it whole, without adding anything or taking anything away. The above ayats clearly limit the responsibility of the messenger to merely delivering the message as it is.
27 | P a g e

To deliver the message is to inform the people of the Qurans contents such as:
1) 2) 3) 4) be it warnings, good news, guidance, or enlightenment

Allah says, O prophet, we have sent you as a witness, a bearer of good news, as well as a warner. Inviting to Allah, in accordance with His will, and a guiding beacon. Sura 33/45-46) These descriptions of the prophet as a witness, a bearer of good news, a warner, and an inviter, all fall under the definition of delivery. Once the messenger delivers the message, he becomes a witness against his people. To be a witness against someone isnt the same as being a witness for someone. If one is a witness against someone, then one is in dispute with that person. However, if one is a witness for someone, then one supports that persons case and serves as an advocate. The Quranic text describes the prophet as a witness against his people on the Day of Resurrection, i.e. he will dispute those who were in defiance. We have sent to you a messenger as a witness against you Sura 73/15 Thus, when the day comes, we will call upon a witness from each community, and you (the messenger) will serve as a witness against these people. Sura 4/41 The day will come when we will raise from every community a witness from among them, and bring you as the witness against huli (these people). We have revealed to you this book to provide explanations for everything Sura 16/89 The Quran mentions the Messengers testimony against his people on the Day of Resurrection in the following: Allah says: "waqla (And said) raslu (the Messenger), yrabbi ("O my Lord), indeed qawm (my people) ittakhadh (took) hatha (this) qur'na (Qur'an) mahjran (as a thing abandoned)." Sura 25/30

28 | P a g e

How is this going to happen? Muslims are too busy reading other books such as Hadith and Sunnah books and not the Quran. Muslims are paying lip service to Quran and giving all the extra attention to Hadith and Sunnah books that arent even validated by Allah. Thus, his responsibility is to deliver the Quran to the people, but since they abandoned the Quran and took hold of other books as has been stated Hadith and Sunnah books, they deserved to be disowned by the Messenger on the Day of Resurrection. One of the signs that they have abandoned the Quran is that they accuse it of ambiguity and say that it requires the words of men which are Hadith to explain and clarify it. They also say that it doesnt clarify things properly, and even though it is described as a clarification for all things, they insist that it requires further elucidation. Due to this, the testimony of the messenger on the Day of Resurrection is going to be one of opposition to their claims confirming that the Quran came down clarifying everything, The day will come when we will raise from every community a witness from among them, and bring you as the witness against these people. We have revealed to you this book to provide explanations for everything Sura 16/89 In some verses discussing the delivery of the message, the messengers responsibilities of delivery and of warning were down-played, however, the importance of Allahs fulfillment of judgment are stressed, your sole mission is to deliver (the message). It is us who will call them to account. Sura 13/40 If they turn away, we did not send you as their guardian. Your sole mission is delivering the message Sura 42/48 You shall remind, for your mission is to deliver this reminder. You have no power over them. As for those who turn away and disbelieve. Allah will commit them to the great retribution. To us is their ultimate destiny. Then we will call them to account. Sura 88/21-26 The messenger of Allah only did what he was told to do. We read the Quran, but we do not reflect on it, and most of us desert it.
29 | P a g e

Would the Prophet Muhammad say anything against Allahs commandment?

Allah says, "[It is] a revelation from the Lord of the worlds. And if he fabricated against Us some aqwli (sayings), We would have seized him by the right hand; Then We would have cut from him the aorta. and none of you could have defended him.." Sura 69/43-47 aqwli qf ww lm ( ) means to say/speak, to call, to be named, word/speech, utterance, a thing said, greeting, discourse, one who says/speaks. To inspire/transmit/relate/answer/think/profess, emit an opinion on, indicate a state or condition or circumstance. qa'ilun - speaker, indicator. The Quran makes it very clear that the Prophet Muhammad would not have said anything against what Allah commanded. He would not tell any one to follow him personally. He would not tell any one to obey his personal speech. He would only command them as a Messenger of Allah to obey/follow as he to had to obey and follow the message, the Quran. How can the Sunnis and Shites get away with their assertions saying that the Quran is not detailed enough, not complete and that it doesnt explain all things in terms of Deen then say the Quran needs outside sources Persian Books of Sahih Bukhari and company in order for it to be complete? As it is the human nature of being human we are prone to convert any details in our communication to unnecessary blather and mere talkativeness for which there is no need and cannot, practicably, be put to use; and this is exactly what the details of the Quran avoid, the Quran only provides the details we actually need. We need to truly think about what is being said. Once, again the Quran only provides the details we actually need.

Thus, the Quran has not left out anything for which we have a need
Allah, revealed His Book with straightforward verses in which is no scope for nonsense or addition. For this reason, the Quran clears up what it has to clear up, and everything that requires clarification and elucidation has been clarified and elucidated in the Quran. And something which doesnt require elucidation is in no need to be
30 | P a g e

elucidated, especially in a Book whose verses have been detailed from a Most Wise, Most Cognizant.

For this reason, elucidation in the Quran is connected to guidance, mercy, and good news for the Muslims:
We have revealed to you this book tib'ynan (as a clarification) likulli shayin (of everything), wahudan (and guidance), waramatan (and mercy), wabush'r (and good news) lil'mus'limna (for the submitters). Sura 16/89 The Arabic word Tibyaan means: to clarify something which requires clarification and explanation. Yet, something which is inherently clear doesnt require elucidation, lest any excessive explanations amount to curiosity and mere prattle for which we have no need. Thus, the explanations of the Quran areguidance for the one seeking guidance amongst a mass of ambiguity and uncertainty. The explanations found in the Quran are also a mercy for the one seeking guidance because it makes known to him/her what was unknown, and it guarantees him/her security and divine mercy as well as good news.

The details of the Quran are also connected to guidance and mercy. Allah says:
We have given them a scripture faalnhu (which We have explained) with il'min (knowledge), as guidance, and mercy for the people who believe. Sura 7/52 Therefore, the Quranic details which include everything are a guidance and a mercy for those who need these details. And if it so happened that such things were clear and didnt require detailing or clarification, then it would be futile to clarify what is already clear.

For this reason, the details of the Quran are connected to precise laws, commandments, instructions, and ordiances that has been conveyed to us through Allahs Prophets/Messengers and Allah says in this regard:

31 | P a g e

A.L.R. This is a scripture u'kimat (are perfected) ytuhu (its verses) have been, fuilat (explained in detail) from a Most Wise, Most Cognizant. Sura 11/1 We have given them a scripture faalnhu (which We have explained) with il'min (knowledge), as guidance, and mercy for the people who believe. Sura 7/52 For this reason, the believers who research and study the whole Quran carefully, they are the ones who find it sufficient, they are the only ones who overstand the Quran.

Allah says:
nufailu (We thus explain) yti (the Signs) for people who know. Sura 7/32 nufailu (We thus explain) yti (the revelations) for people who reflect. Sura 10/24 nufailu (We thus explain) yti (the revelations) for people who understand. Sura 30/28

Allah also says:

A scripture fuilat (are detailed), in an Arabic Quran, for people who know. Sura 41/3 As for those who dont know, they are the ones who challenge the Qurans assertions, disbelieving its clarity and not believing that it details everything; they say: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Where is the number of units of prayer mentioned in the Quran? Where is the method for prayer mentioned in the Quran? How should we perform the pilgrimage? What is Zakat? Where are the days of the week mentioned in the Quran? Where are the days of the week mentioned in the Quran?

Allah says:
As for those who saaw (constantly challenge) f (against) ytin (Our verses), mujizna (to cause failure) ulika (those) for them is a punishment of foul nature painful. And those who have been given knowledge see that what is revealed to you from your Lord is the truth, and it guides to the path of the Exalted in Might, the Praiseworthy. Sura 34/5-6

32 | P a g e

Allah refers to them in this verse in the past tense, so what of the present? Allah also tells us clearly in the next ayat what was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad is the truth and it guides to the path of the Exalted in Might, the Praiseworthy. Allah is speaking about the Quran alone and not Quran and Hadith or Sunnah.

Allah also says:

wa-alladhna (As for those who) yasawna (consistently challenge) fi (against) ytin (Our verses), mujizna (to cause failure), ulika (those) f (into) tadhbi (the punishment) mu'arna (will be brought). Sura 34/38 Every Messenger that was sent to their respective communities were supposed to be obeyed/followed:

Allah says:
"And warn nsa of a day when the doom will come upon them, and those who did wrong will say: Our Lord! Reprieve us for a little while. nujib (We will answer) dawataka (Your call) wanattabii (AND WE WILL FOLLOW) rusula (the messengers). (It will be answered): Did ye not swear before that there would be no end for you?" Surah 14/44

So the question again is how do we follow the messengers?

Allah says in 6/153 "This ir (is My Path) mus'taqman (straight), fa-ittabihu (so follow it). Do not tattabi (follow) subula (other ways) or you will become cut off from His Way. That is what He instructs you to do, so that hopefully you will have taqwa." Now there is only one Prophet mentioned by name that we are told given Bayyinat (Clear Evidence) throughout the Quran to follow again, by name and that is Prophet Ibrahim. Millata Ibrahim is mentioned throughout the entire Quran by name. So if its obligatory for us to follow the Millata Ibrahim and its mentioned by name and yet, the Sunnis and Shites say its obligatory for us to follow the Prophet Muhammads Hadith/Sunnah why cant they present just one clear ayat by name as we can do for Prophet Ibrhaim.

33 | P a g e

Allah instructs the Prophet Muhammad to follow the Millata Ibrahim:

"Then awayn (We revealed) to you, ittabi(to follow) Millata ibrahima (the creed of Ibrahim), anfan (inclining toward truth); and he was not of those who associate with Allah." Sura 16/123 This is one clear ayat that says by name Millata Ibrahim now this is without a doubt clear and obvious for all to see. There is no mistranslation, interpolation of the ayat. Millata Ibrahim is mentioned. "It is He who has sent down to you, the Book; in it are verses mu'kamtun (that are precise) - they are ummu (the foundation) of the Book -wa-ukharu (and others) mutashbihtun (unspecific/unclear). As for those in whose hearts is deviation, fayattabina (they will follow) that of it which is unspecific/unclear, seeking fit'nati (discord) and seeking an interpretation. And no one knows its [true] interpretation except Allah . But those firm in knowledge say, "We believe in it. All [of it] is from our Lord." And no one will be reminded except those of understanding." Sura 3/7

We have to remember key words:

mu'kamtun verses-perfected/tighteneed/clear/firm/wellestablished/precise/straight/unambiguous/decisive verses.

Allah says for them in Sura 3/7 "they are ummu (foundation of the book)".
"ummu" stands for mother / origin / source / prototype / basis...

34 | P a g e

Then in the same ayat Allah says:

wa-ukharu (and others) mutashbihtun (unspecific/unclear). As for those in whose hearts is deviation, fayattabina (they will follow) that of it which is mutashbihtun (unspecific/unclear), seeking fit'nati (discord) and seeking an interpretation. mutashbihtun verses-looking like/ /resembling/ambiguous/undecisive/vague/obscure/unclear/? Allah tells us that those in whose hearts is perversity FOLLOW WHAT IS AMBIGUOUS/resembling seeking for fitna/disorder and seeking their own interpretation. Allah then tells us that no one knows its mutashbihtun interpretation/meaning except Allah so basically this tells us to look no further, and then Allah continues by saying that those who are firmly rooted in the knowledge say: we believe in it, all of it is from our Lord... It's not at all that those who are rooted in the knowledge cannot grasp the message/meaning of mutashabihaat verses, ON CONTRARY, they CAN GRASP IT, BUT, ONLY by looking at it, and trying to understand it IN THE LIGHT OF versesmu'kamtun which are BASIS/SOURCE of the book... Example, when we say Allah says to follow the Millata Ibrahim this is what we know that is mu'kamtun ayat because its in the Quran for all to see.

Allah instructs the Prophet Muhammad to follow the Millata Ibrahim:

"Then awayn (We revealed) to you, ittabi(to follow) Millata ibrahima (the creed of Ibrahim), anfan (inclining toward truth); and he was not of those who associate with Allah." Sura 16/123

Now when the question is ask to a Sunni or Shite show us a mu'kamtun ayat instructing us to follow the Sunnah of Muhammad they present:
"And whatsoever the Messenger gives you, take it, and whatsoever he forbids you, abstain from it..." [al-Hashr: 7]
35 | P a g e

Any doctrine, teaching, attitude, opinion or whatever - if it has no support in muhkamaat verses, then, mutashabihaat verses alone are not enough, and it cannot be said that it has its basis and support in the book, cause only muhkamaat verses are source of the book (represent position/judgement of the book) and mutashabihaat verses should be interpreted in the other way -in line with muhkamaat... And only if the teaching has support in muhkamaat verses, only then, can be said that Quran support such teaching. It is NOT LOGICAL if the correct meaning of some verses of Quran can not be grasped as traditionaly understood, BUT IT IS ALSO ILLOGICAL to think that judgements, religion, positions,opinions and doctrines could be based only on mutashabihaat/ambiguous verses.... And it is very illogical that those who are rooted in the knowledge find out its meaning through some sort of hidden revelations, or through complicated calculations as shias, some sunnis and some code 19 believers claim or through some other way, other than reading and contemplating upon Quran and its muhkamaat verses... Expression "Rooted in the knowledge" by itself says to us from where they pick up their knowledge - from the book of Allah and its muhkamaat verses which represent the basis of the book which is the main source of knowledge and detail explanation for/of all things...

They cannot say this doctrine for example we have the following that some of these sects claim exist within the Quran:
1) 2) 3) 4) Sunnah Hadith Code 19 12 Imams

All of this is based upon Quran they claim so if they have no support in mukhkamaat verses...which represent UMM/prototype/mother/SOURCE of the book then they have no Bayyinaat (Clear Evidence). Every sect, doctrine, philosophy, group, movement can find some kind of "basis" and "support" in Quran to validate or support their unquranic belief or opinion. We see itall the time within every sect has some verses to present as divine proof and evidence for their doctrine... And they say you see, in this and this verse Allah says so and so...

The Sunnis and Shites when asked to provide a muhkamaat (clear ayat/precise) ayat to support their doctrine of Hadith/Sunnah of Muhammad they will say:
"obey messenger"... and then follow-up saying, "you see, we must obey messenger" and when asked how we will do it today when he is dead , and they will say, "of course by following his Hadith/sayings in the book." Next they will reference and say "they will not believe until they take YOU as judge ", and they say, "you see we must judge according to hadith of the prophet..." Again, and again they will quote mutashabihaat/ambiguous ayats and will never be able to provide a muhkamaat (clear /precise) ayat telling us to follow the Hadith or Sunnah of Muhammad as was shown in the Quran where Allah tells us to follow the Millata Ibrahim.

What was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad in terms of Wahyun (Revelation)?

Now according to the Sunnis and Shites they say that it was reported to have been said, although not in the Authentic Six books of the Sunni Muslims, but rather other books (e.g. Malik Muwatta) during the alleged Prophet Muhammad's Farewell Sermon atop Mount Arafat after his Last Pilgrimage.

According to one version of the narration, Prophet Muhammad allegedly said:

I have left among you two matters by holding fast to which, you shall never be misguided: the Book of Allah and the Sunna of His Prophet. However, the 'Qur'an and My Family' version is cited in many Sunni Hadith books. Amongst those is: Sunan al-Tirmidhi, Volume 6, Chapter 31, Hadith No. 3788: Zaid bin Arqam narrated that Muhammed said: "Indeed, I am leaving among you, that which if you hold fast to them, you shall not be misguided after me. One of then is greater than the other: (First is) The book of Allah is a rope extended from the sky to the earth, and (the second is) my family, the people of my house (ahlul bait), and they shall not split until they meet me at the hawd, so look at how you deal with them after me." (Sahih). Sunan al-Tirmidhi, Volume 6, Chapter 31, Hadith No. 3786:

37 | P a g e

Jabir bin Abdullah said: "I saw the Messenger of God during his Hajj, on the Day of Arafah (on his last pilgrimage). He was upon his camel Al-Qaswa, giving a Khutbah, so he said: O People! Indeed, I have left among you, that which if you hold fast to it, you shall not go astray: The Book of Allah (Quran) and my Family, the People of my House (Ahlul-Bait).(Sahih)

Both Sunnis and Shi'as accept that Muhammad said the following:
"I am leaving among you something which is very important and should be followed, you will not go astray if you get hold of it after I am gone, one part of it being more important than the other: Allah's Book, which is a rope stretched from Heaven to Earth, and my close relatives, who belong to my household. These two will not separate from one another till they come down to the reservoir, so consider how you act regarding them after my departure." (Tirmidhi, Sahih Muslim) Both Sunnis and the Shi'a believe in respecting Ahl al-Bayt. However, the Shi'a believe that the successors of the Prophet were appointed from the Ahl al-Bayt. Sunnis reject the claim that only the Ahl al-Bayt should govern. 1) I leave with you Quran and Sunnah, Muwatta, 46/3 2) I leave with you Quran and Ahl al-bayt , Muslim 44/4, Nu2408; ibn hanbal 4/366; darimi 23/1, nu 3319. 3) I leave for you the Quran alone you shall uphold it. Muslim 15/19, nu 1218; ibn Majah 25/84, Abu dawud 11/56. See Sahih Muslim, Book of Hajj, Book 7 , Number 2803: Sunni-Muslims are the majority which counts as 90% of Muslims while the ShiaMuslims are less than 10 %, the rest belong to smaller Sects. Needless to say, that this has opened the door to various interpretations, which clearly contradict the Quran. And here we find the main reason for the dividing elements in Islam.

In this Hadith, Muhammad, Allahs Prophet, explained Ayat 75:16-29, by saying:

I was given the Quran and its equal with it (i.e., the Sunnah) (A Sahih
Hadith; Al-Hadithu Hujjatun bi-Nafsihi [21]). 29. [Albani, Muhammad Nasir ad-Deen. Al-Hadithu Hujjatun bi-Nafsihi fi-l-Ahkami wa-l-Aqa-id (The Hadith is Proof Itself in Matters of Law and Creed) (Pg. 26-27)] (Introduction to: Muhammad The Prophet of Mercy Muhammads Role in Islam, by Jalal Abualrub, edited by Alaa Mencke [Madinah Publishers and Distributors, First Edition: June 2007], p. 34)

Narrated Al-Miqdam ibn Madikarib:

The Prophet said:

Beware! I have been given the Quran and something like it, yet the time
is coming when a man replete on his couch will say: Keep to the Quran; what you find in it to be permissible treat as permissible, and what you find in it to be prohibited treat as prohibited. Beware! The domestic ass, beasts of prey with fangs, a find belonging to confederate, unless its owner does not want it, are not permissible to you If anyone comes to some people, they must entertain him, but if they do not, he has a right to mulct them to an amount equivalent to his entertainment. (Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 40, Number 4587)

39 | P a g e

So the question to ask these Sunnis and Shites who differ in terms of what the Prophet Muhammad received we have to do an investigation of the Quran to verify what did the Prophet Muhammad receive as wahyun (revelation).

Allah says that only the Quran was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad:
"The month of Ramadhan [is that] in which unzila (was sent down) the Qur'an, hudan (a guidance) for the people wabayyintin (and clear proofs) of hud (guidance) walfur'qni (and criterion). So whoever sights [the new moon of] the month, let him fast it; and whoever is ill or on a journey - then an equal number of other days. Allah intends for you ease and does not intend for you hardship and [wants] for you to complete the period and to glorify Allah for that [to] which He has guided you; and perhaps you will be grateful." Sura 2/185 "Alif, Lam, Ra. These are the verses of the clear Book. Indeed, anzalnhu (We have sent it down) as an Arabic Qur'an that you might understand. We relate to you, asana (the best) qaai (of the stories) in what anzalnhu (awayn) to you of this Qur'an although you were, before it, among the unaware." Sura 12/1-3 "Ta, Ha. Not anzaln (We have sent down) to you the Qur'an that you be distressed. but tadhkiratan (as a reminder) for those who hold Allah in awe. tanzlan (A revelation) from He who created the earth and highest heavens." Sura 20/1-4 "And thus anzalnhu (We have sent it down) as an Arabic Qur'an waarrafn (and have explained) in it the warnings that perhaps they will avoid sin or it would cause them remembrance." 20/113 "Ya Seen. And the Quran akmi (the wise). Indeed you, are from among the messengers, On a irin (path) mus'taqmin (straight). tanzla (A revelation) of the Mighty, the Merciful. That you may warn a people whose forefathers were not warned, so they are unaware." Sura 36/1-6 "Ha. Mim. A revelation from the Lord of Mercy, the Giver of Mercy; Book whose verses have been detailed, an Arabic Qur'an for a people who know.As a giver of good tidings and a warner; but most of them turn away, so they do not hear." Sura 41/1-4 Say, "What thing akbaru (is greatest) shahdatan (as a testimony)?" Say, " Allah shahdun (is witness) between me and you. waiya (And it has been revealed to me) this Qur'an that I may warn you thereby and whomever it reaches. Do you
40 | P a g e

[truly] testify that with Allah there are other deities?" Say, "I will not testify [with you]." Say, "Indeed, He is but one Allah, and indeed, I am free of what you associate [with Him]." Sura 6/19 So we have all of the above ayats establishes the muhkamaat ayats in terms of conveying to us what did the Prophet Muhammad receive, what was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad as wahyun. All of the above ayats states that the wahyun (revelation) revealed to the Prophet was the Quran only. We dont see any Hadith, Sunnah, Ahlul Bayt, 12 Imams or Code 19 next the muhkamaat ayats above. This point cannot be refuted. They cant assume or misinterpret these ayats above that it was only the Quran revealed to the Prophet.

What did the Prophet Muhammad obey/follow?

Even the Prophet Muhammad had to obey/follow the Messenger. Some Sunnis and Shites get confused with this expression. They dont know what this truly means when I say even the Prophet had to obey/follow the Messenger. Allah addresses the man, Muhammad as the Prophet which represents the human side of the Messenger numerous times. The Prophet Muhammad is never addressed especially while being chastise as Messenger. When Allah had to correct Muhammad, he was corrected as Prophet.

Now Allah says to Muhammad:

Allah says: O you prophet, when the believing women who abandoned the disbelievers to seek asylum with you pledge to you that they will not set up any idols besides Allah, nor steal, nor commit adultery, nor kill their children, nor fabricate any falsehood, nor disobey your righteous orders, you shall accept their pledge, and pray to Allah to forgive them " Sura 60/12 But because Allah spoke to him as a prophet, He restricted the Prophets being obeyed to righteousness, and so He said: nor disobey your righteous orders. Thus, obeying the prophet [means] obeying Allah the One who revealed the Qur'an. The Prophet himself was the first person to obey the Messenger/message/ the Qur'an.

41 | P a g e

Obeying the messenger means obeying the Qur'an which Allah revealed to the messenger; and the messenger or the Qur'an, is still among us. One doesnt place ones belief in Muhammad the person but rather, in what was revealed to Muhammad. Those who believe and work righteousness, and believe in what was sent down to muammadin (Muhammad) - which is the truth from their Lord - He remits their sins, and blesses them with contentment." Sura 47/2 O you nabiyu (prophet), you shall ittaqi (reverence) Allah and do not obey the disbelievers and the hypocrites. Allah is Omniscient, Most Wise. wa-ittabi (AND FOLLOW) what is y (REVEALED) to you from your Lord. Allah is fully Cognizant of everything you all do. And put your trust in Allah. Sura 33/1-3 Allah is instructing the Prophet Muhammad to " wa-ittabi (And FOLLOW) what is y (revealed) to you from your Lord."

Allah says whilst addressing both us and the prophet:

This scripture has been revealed to you - you shall not harbor doubt about it in your heart - that you may warn with it, and to provide a reminder for the believers. Follow what is revealed to you from your Lord; do not follow awliya (any allies) besides Him. Rarely do you take heed." Sura 7/2-3

There is a hidden marvel in Allahs prohibiting us thus:

do not follow awliya (any allies) besides Him If you think about it carefully, Allah is saying this because using sources other than the Qur'an means that you have made them equal to Allah and His Book; this constitutes setting up awliya (any allies) alongside Allah, despite the fact that Allah is enough as an ally for the believer, and the Qur'an is enough as a book. Allah says, "Say: I follow only that which is inspired in me from my Sustainer. This (Qur'an) is insight from your Sustainer, and a guidance and a mercy for a people that believe. And when the Qur'an is recited, give ear to it and pay heed, that ye may obtain mercy." Sura 7/203-204

42 | P a g e

 Qul Say, m (not) kuntu (I am) bid'an (a new one) mina (among) l-rusuli (the Messengers) I have no idea what will happen to me or to you. attabiu (I FOLLOW) what y (IS REVEALED) to me. I am no more than a profound warner." Sura 46/9 "I tell you not that with me are the Treasures of Allah, nor do I know what is hidden, nor do I tell you I am an angel. I but attabiu (FOLLOW) what y (IS REVEALED) to me." Say: "Can the blind be held equal to the seeing?" Will ye then consider not? Sura 6/50 Say: "If ye do love Allah, fa-ittabin (THEN FOLLOW ME): Allah will love you and forgive you your sins: For Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful." Surah 3/31

Allah tells the believers/Muslims to follow the light that was revealed to him:
"Those who yattabina (FOLLOW) the apostle, the umiya Prophet, whom they find mentioned in their own (scriptures),- in the law and the Gospel;- for he commands them what is just and forbids them what is evil; he allows them as lawful what is good (and pure) and prohibits them from what is bad (and impure); He releases them from their heavy burdens and from the yokes that are upon them. So it is those who believe in him, honour him, help him, wa-ittaba (AND FOLLOW) nra (THE LIGHT) which is sent down with him,- it is they who will prosper." Surah 7/157 "Indeed there has come to you from Allah nrun (A LIGHT) and a Clear Book. bihi (With it) Allah guides whoever ittabaa (FOLLOWS) His good pleasure to the ways of peace and brings them out from the darkness into the light by His permission: He guides them onto a straight path." Sura 5/15-16

Also in Surah 3/55, Allah says those who follow Isa ibn Maryam will be superior to those who reject faith:
"O Isa! I will take thee and raise thee to Myself and clear thee (of the falsehoods) of those who blaspheme; I will make those who ittabaka (FOLLOWED YOU) superior to those who reject Faith, to the Day of Resurrection; then shall ye all return unto Me, and I will judge between you of the matters wherein ye dispute.

43 | P a g e

The question that needs to be asked is how did the followers of Isa ibn Maryam follow Isa? Was it through what was revealed to him as well, Al Kitab, Al Hikmata (the Wisdom), the Injil? Was it also through some outside books not mentioned called Hadith and Sunnah of Isa ibn Maryam?

Even the Messenger that was sent to their respective communities were supposed to be obeyed/followed:
"And warn nsa of a day when the doom will come upon them, and those who did wrong will say: Our Lord! Reprieve us for a little while. nujib (We will answer) dawataka (Your call) wanattabii (AND WE WILL FOLLOW) rusula (the messengers). (It will be answered): Did ye not swear before that there would be no end for you?" Surah 14/44 So, the Qur'an explains itself and its Allah WHO is the Teacher of His Book even the Prophet Muhammad could not explain the Qur'an. He had to follow the Qur'an and it was the Qur'an which was the LIGHT that was revealed to him that his people had to follow along with the rest of alamin.

Allah says:
"Indeed there has come to you from Allah nrun (a Light) and a Clear Book. bihi (With it) Allah guides whoever ittabaa (follows) His good pleasure to the ways of peace and brings them out from the darkness into the light by His permission..." corresponds to Surah 7/157 Allah says, "He releases them from their heavy burdens and from the yokes that are upon them. So it is those who believe in him, honour him, help him, wa-ittaba (and follow) nra (the light) which is sent down with him,- it is they who will prosper." Surah 7/157

Allah says again and again wa-ittaba (and follow) nra (the light) which was sent down to the Prophet Muhammad and the light is the Quran. No where do we ever see follow:
1) 2) 3) 4) Sunnah Hadith Ahlul Bayt 12 Imams
44 | P a g e

5) Code 19

Another mutashabihaat/ambiguous ayat the Sunnis and Shites love to recite is:
" And We did not send any messenger except liyua (to be obeyed) by permission of Allah. And if, when they wronged themselves, they had come to you and asked forgiveness of Allah and the Messenger had asked forgiveness for them, they would have found Allah Accepting of repentance and Merciful. Indeed, by your Lord, they will not believe till yuakkimka (they make you judge) in their disputes and find no constraint in their minds about your decisions and accept them with full acquiescence." Sura 4/64-65 So now Allah says clearly that they cant be believers until they make the Prophet Muhammad judge in their disputes and find no constraint in their minds about his decisions and accept them with full acquiescence. Would Allah allow the Prophet Muhammad decisions based strictly from his own self? Does this ayat literally mean that the man, the Prophet would speak according to what he himself thinks, feels, his own desires? Or does this also as I have indicated imply another mutashabihaat/ambiguous ayat? Allah answers the question in terms of how the man, the Prophet name Muhammad would judge the people and it is not based upon his own judgment or his own thoughts. The way the Prophet Muhammad would judge the people is based upon the Book revealed to the Prophet which is the Quran.

Allah says:
"We have sent down to you this Book of truth, litakuma (so that you may judge) between the people." Sura 4/105 Both in Sura 4/64-65 yuakkimka and in Sura 4/105 are the same word litakuma and is saying the same thing there is no SEPARATING the two accept that he is to judge them by what was sent down to him. Basically, he has to use the Quran to judge them. "... waman (And whoever) lam (does not) yakum (JUDGE) bim (BY WHAT) ALLAH anzala (HAS REVEALED) - then it is those who are the disbelievers." Sura 5/44

45 | P a g e

"... waman (And whoever) lam (does not) yakum (JUDGE) bim (BY WHAT) ALLAH anzala (HAS REVEALED) - then it is those who are the disbelievers." Sura 5/45 "... waman (And whoever) lam (does not) yakum (JUDGE) bim (BY WHAT) ALLAH anzala (HAS REVEALED) - then it is those who are the disbelievers." Sura 5/47 wa-ani (And that) u'kum (you judge), baynahum (between them) bim (BY WHAT) ALLAH anzala (HAS REVEALED) TO YOU (QUR'AN) and do not follow their inclinations and beware of them, lest they tempt you away from some of what Allah has revealed to you. And if they turn away - then know that Allah only intends to afflict them with some of their [own] sins. And indeed, many among the people are defiantly disobedient." Sura 5/49 "[Say], 'Then is it other than Allah I should seek akaman (as judge) while it is He who has revealed to you the BOOK EXPLAINED IN DETAIL?' And those to whom We [previously] gave the Scripture know that it is sent down from your Lord in truth, so never be among the doubters." Sura 6/114 Say: "For me, I (work) on a clear sign from my Lord, but ye reject Him. What ye would see hastened, is not in my power. The command rests with none but Allah: He declares the truth, and He is the best filna (of the deciders). Sura 6/57 Then they His servants are returned to Allah , their true Lord. Unquestionably, His uk'mu (is the judgment), and He is the swiftest of accountants. Sura 6/62 You do not serve besides Him but names which you have named, you and your fathers; Allah has not sent down any authority. Not uk'mu (is the judgment) but for Allah; He has commanded that you shall not serve aught but Him; this is the right deen but most people do not know. Sura 12/40 And he said: O my sons! do not (all) enter by one gate and enter by different gates and I cannot avail you aught against Allah anything; Not uk'mu (is the judgment) except for Allah; upon Him do I rely, and on Him let those who are reliant rely. Sura 12/67 And He is Allah, there is no god but He! All praise is due to Him in this (life) and the hereafter, and His uk'mu (is the judgment), and to Him you shall be brought back. Sura 28/70 (It will be said): "This is because, when Allah Alone was invoked (in worship, etc.) you disbelieved, but when partners were joined to Him, you believed! fal-uk'mu (So the judgment) is only with Allah, the Most High, the Most Great!" Sura 40/12
46 | P a g e

And in whatever thing you differ in it of a thing, fauk'muhu (then its judgment) thereof is (in) Allah's (hand); that is Allah, my Lord, on Him do I rely and to Him do I turn time after time. Sura 42/10 As the Quran presents to us clearly, Al-Hukm or the Judgment or the Rule or the Command belongs to none but Allah alone. Hence, the judgment does not belong to any one including the Prophets.

Allah does not take anyone as partner in His Hukm:

Say, " Allah is most knowing of how long they remained. He has [knowledge of] the unseen [aspects] of the heavens and the earth. How Seeing is He and how Hearing! They have not besides Him any protector, and He shares not uk'mihi (His legislation) with anyone. Sura 18:26

Allah alone is Khair-ul-Hakimin

And if there should be a group among you who has believed in that with which I have been sent and a group that has not believed, then be patient until Allah yakuma (judges) between us. And He is khayru kimna (the best of judges)." Sura 7/87 wa-ittabi (And follow) what is revealed to you, and be patient until yakuma lahu (Allah will judge). And He is khayru kimna (the best of judges). Sura 10/109 Then when they despaired of him, they retired, conferring privately together. The eldest of them said: Do you not know that your father took from you a covenant in Allah's name, and how you fell short of your duty with respect to Yusuf before? Therefore I will by no means depart from this land until my father permits me or yakuma lahu (Allah decides) for me, and He is khayru kimna (the best of judges). Sura 12/80

Allah alone is Ahkam-ul-Hakimin

And Noah called to his Lord and said, "My Lord, indeed my son is of my family; and indeed, Your promise is true; and You are akamu kimna (the most just of judges)!" Sura 11/45 Is not Allah bi-akami kimna (the most just of judges)? Sura 95/8

Can the Prophet Muhammad guide people?

47 | P a g e

This alleged Sunnah or the Way of the Prophet is not part of Al-Hukm, since Allah does not take any partners in His Hukm based upon Sura 18/26. Since the death of the man, the Prophet name Muhammad Sunnis and Shites love to call to the Sunnah of Muhammad, they call to the Hadith of Muhammad and claim that this Sunnah is what will give us life. Some Muslims go so far to say:

The Sunnah is like the Ark of Noah Imaam Maalik said,"The Sunnah is like
the Ark of Noah. Whoever embarks upon it reaches salvation and whoever refuses is drowned." Quoted by Shaikh ul-Islaam Ibn Taimiyyah in Majmoo' ul-fataawaa (4/5) The Sunnah is like the ark of noah, whoever treads upon it, shall be saved. This was said by some of the most prestige Scholars of Islam but the problem is do they have the Bayyinaat (Clear Evidence) from the Quran to back up their statement? Can they prove their position using the Quran alone? They are putting much emphasis on an alleged Sunnah that was allegedly left over 1,400 years ago by a man, a Prophet name Muhammad. Again, does the Quran claim that this Sunnah is what saves us? Allah says: Say, Are there of shurakikum (your partners) any who yahd (guides) to aqi (the truth)? Say, Allah yahd (guides) lilaqqi (to the truth). So is He (Allah) who yahd (guides) to aqi (the truth) more worthy that yuttabaa (he should be followed) or he (Prophet Muhammad) who guides not ill (unless) yuhd (he is guided)? Then what is [wrong] with you how do takumna (you judge)? Sura 10/35

So now when we break this down Allah says:

Are there of shurakikum (your partners) ==> SUNNAH/HADITH <== any who yahd (guides) to aqi (the truth)? Sunnis and Shites claim that the Sunnah of Muhammad guides and they say that its the like the Ark if its boarded we will be saved. However, Allah says are there any shurakikum (your partners) and partners can be Isa ibn Maryam, Prophet Muhammad, his Hadith/Sunnah, Buddha, Confucius it can be any one whom we deem is qualified to guide us do they truly guide? The answer to this question is no, of course the). So is He (Allah) who yahd (guides) to aqi (the truth) more worthy that yuttabaa (he should be followed)
48 | P a g e

We all know that it is Allah alone who guides to the truth and more worthy to be followed instead of a human being. Isa ibn Maryam, Prophet Muhammad all of them fits this description of not being able to guide any one. or he (Prophet Muhammad) who guides not ill (unless) yuhd (he is guided) We can even place Prophet Muhammads name, Isa ibn Maryams name and any other human being name inside this ayat because Allah makes it clear that he who guides not unless he too is given guidance is not worthy to be followed. Remember, Prophet Muhammad before the guidance of Allah was LOST/ASTRAY and he could not guide any one basically he needed guidance himself: "alam (Did not) yajid'ka (He find you) yatman (an orphan) faw (and give shelter?) wawajadaka (And He found you) llan (lost), fahad (so He guided...) Sura 93/7

Allah makes it clear that ONLY Allah guides to the Truth and not anything outside of Allah's Guidance like Hadith/Sunnah books authorized by men's desires hence not authorized by Allah:
"And the Hudan (Jews) will not be pleased with you, nor nar (the Nazarenes) until tattabia (you follow) millatahum (their way). Say: inna (Indeed) Surely Allah's hud (guidance), huwa (it) hud (is the guidance). And if ittabata (you follow) ahwahum (their desires) after the knowledge that has come to you, you shall have no guardian from Allah, nor any helper." Sura 2/120

Allah tells us that it is ONLY Allah's GUIDANCE that guides:

"And believe not save in one who follow dnakum (your system) - Say: inna (Indeed)! hud (the true guidance) hud (is the Guidance) of Allah - that anyone is given the like of that which was given unto you or that they may argue with you in the presence of their Lord. Say Lo! the bounty is in Allah's hand. He bestoweth it on whom He will. Allah is All-Embracing, All-Knowing." Sura 3/73

Allah tells us clearly why do we call to, run to anything besides Allah that profits us not nor hurts us such as Hadith/Sunnah books that has become
49 | P a g e

companions/partners with Allah calling them to guidance outside of Allah's Guidance:

"Say: Shall we call, instead of unto Allah, unto that which neither profiteth us nor hurteth us and shall we turn back after Allah hadn (hath guided us), like one bewildered whom shaynu (the devils) have infatuated in the earth, who hath abun (companions) who invite him to the guidance (saying): Come unto us Say: inna (Indeed) hud (the guidance) of Allah huwa (it) hud (is Guidance), and we are ordered to surrender to the Lord of the Worlds." Sura 6/71

Now there are some Muslims who say:

"The Prophets Sunnah is not only the second source, right after the Quran, of Islamic Shariah (Law), but also the second source, again right after the Quran, of which both knowledge and civilization flow. Primarily, the Quran establishes the bases and principles of legislation, whereas the Sunnah provides theoretical interpretation as well as example and practical application. The Prophets guidance as exemplified in the Sunnah guides Muslims to three basic inseparable aspects of civilization, namely: civilized Fiqh (Jurisprudence), civilized conduct, and civilized structure." http://www.onislam.net/english/reading-islam/about-muhammad/he-said/442606the-sunnah-a-source-of-civilization-.html

Allah informs us clearly that Prophet Muhammad CANNOT GUIDE any one including whom he loves so how can a Sunnah guide any one that was not legislated by Allah:
"innaka (Indeed, you) l (cannot) tahd (guide) whom you love. But it is Allah who yahd (guides) whom He wills; and He is fully aware of those who receive the guidance." Sura 28/56

Allah informs us that Prophet Muhammad is NOT RESPONSIBLE for guiding any one it is Allah alone who guides:
"laysa (Not) alayka (on You) hudhum (is their guidance) walkinna (and but) Allah guides whom He wills." Sura 2/272

50 | P a g e

Allah instructs the Prophet Muhammad to say that he does not have the power to harm, benefit or guiding any one:
"Say, inn (Indeed, I) la (do not) amliku (posses) lakum (for you) any harm, wal (and not) rashadan (the right path)." Sura 72/21 Qul Say, m (not) kuntu (I am) bid'an (a new one) mina (among) l-rusuli (the Messengers) I have no idea what will happen to me or to you. I only follow what is revealed to me. I am no more than a profound warner." Sura 46:9 This is what the Qur'an says about our Prophet Muhammad he is helpless when it comes to the guidance. The truth of the matter is Allah alone guides. Wake up Muslims and see the truth it is the Qur'an that guides if Allah Will not any source outside of the Qur'an not legislated by Allah.

Some Muslims mistaken and say the Prophet Muhammad is the Best Example for us
Unfortunately, we have millions of Sunnis and minus thousands if not millions of Shites the minority after the Sunnis who claim that we all should follow the Sunnah of Muhammad. They also go against the Quran because Allah tells us not to make any distinctions between Allah and His Messengers. Say, "We believe in Allah and that which has been sent down to us and that which has been sent down to Ibrahim (Abraham), Isma'il (Ishmael), Ishaq (Isaac), Ya'qub (Jacob), and to Al-Asbat [the offspring of the twelve sons of Ya'qub (Jacob)], and that which has been given to Musa (Moses) and 'sa, and that which has been given to the Prophets from their Lord. nufarriqu (We make no distinction) between any of them, and to Him we have submitted. Sura 2/136 The Messenger believes in what has been sent down to him from his Lord, and (so do) the believers. Each one believes in Allah, His Angels, His Books, and His Messengers. (They say), "nufarriqu (We make no distinction) between one another of His Messengers" - and they say, "We hear, and we obey. (We seek) Your Forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the return (of all)." Sura 2/285 Say: "We believe in Allah and in what has been sent down to us, and what was sent down to Ibrahim (Abraham), Isma'il (Ishmael), Ishaq (Isaac), Ya'qub (Jacob) and Al51 | P a g e

Asbat [the offspring of the twelve sons of Ya'qub (Jacob)] and what was given to Musa (Moses), 'sa and the Prophets from their Lord. Nufarriqu (We make no distinction) between one another among them and to Him (Allah) we have submitted (in Islam)." Sura 3/84 Verily, those who disbelieve in Allah and His Messengers and yufarriq (they differentiate) between Allah and His saying, "We believe in some but reject others," and wish to adopt a way in between. Sura 4/150 And those who believe in Allah and His Messengers and yufarriq (they make no distinction) between any of them (Messengers), We shall give them their rewards; and Allah is Ever Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. Sura 4/152 Fa-Ra-Qaf = to separate/distinguish/divide/split/decide. farqun - the act of distinction or separating. fariq - who separates, discriminates. firqun - separate part, heap. firqatun - band of human beings. fariqun - part/portion, some party or band of human beings. furqan - criterion of right or wrong, draft, evidence or demonstration, a name of The Quran, aid, victory, argument, proof, dawn, distinction. faraqa (vb. 2) to make a division or distinction, make a schism. tafriq - division, dissension. faraqa (vb. 3) To quit, depart. mutafarriqun - diverse, different. fariqa - to fear, be frightened, plunge in the wave, seek refuge in fear, succour. yafraqu - to be timid and afraid, appear in one's true colour, be cowardly, be ridden by fear. Allah is telling us not to separate, divide ourselves between Allah and His Prophets. The polytheist Christians does this especially for Isa ibn Maryam. When it comes to Isa ibn Maryam they say hes Allah in the flesh, literally, the son of Allah and they dont have any evidence in the Tawrah nor in the Injil to validate this claim. Allah denies these claims in the Quran. They separate Isa ibn Maryam from all of the other Prophets
52 | P a g e

of Allah. When similarities are drawn between Isa ibn Maryam being called metaphorically son of Elohim and told other Prophets and Nations were called Son of Elohim they say this is different. When other Prophets raised according to the Tawrah such as Elijah and Elisha, they say this is different from Isa ibn Maryam. Sunnis and Shites have fallen right into the same Matrix of deception of the Shaytanu when it comes to Prophet Muhammad. For example, Sunnis and Shites love to say that the Quran tells us that the Quran says that the Prophet Muhammad is the best example.

The following verse is used by traditional followers who commit such idolizing of the Prophet Muhammad, in justifying what they do:
"Indeed, in the messenger of Allah an Uswatun Hasana / (Excellent Example) good example)' has been set for the one who seeks Allah and the Last Day and thinks constantly about Allah." Sura 33/21 Here we have the Arabic word uswatun hasana / ) that says excellent, good but it does not mean best example. They say that Allah has given the Sunnah and the Hadith of the Prophet as a permanent and vital position in the deen of Islam.further they claim following the Prophets example has been made a part of of faith, an accompaniment to faith in Allah, and the Last Day, and any one who does not accept and follow this example cannot claim by the evidence according to them that according to the Word of Allah itself, to be complete in faith. They believe the word uswatun hasan/excellent example has been used absolutely, not limited to any particular aspect of the Prophets life and they believe this covers his words, his deeds, his persmissions, and prohibitions, his private and public behavior, his service to Allah and his administration, his moral qualities and his manners.

53 | P a g e

Hence, they say that the Prophets Sunnah is hereby elevated to the position of a divine institution in Islam, and his sayings a divinely authorized interpretation of Allahs message. Some Sunnis and Shites get to believing that we have to follow this example outside of the Quran and look into Persian Imam Books of Hadith by Sahih Bukhari and company to get this example.

They literally believe:

1. We have to walk like him 2. Talk like him 3. Eat like him 4. Sleep like him 5. Engage in Sexual pleasure with our wives like him 6. Stand on the tree like him 7. Eat with our right hand like him 8. Wear our beards like him 9. Sit down like him 10. Use the toilet like him The question that needs to be asked is this what Allah saying for us to do in the Quran? Allah tells us to follow the 'good example' we have to wonder does this mean literally, being in his choice of favourite colour, favourite food, the way he felt like sitting - the prophetic 'good example' was in his faith. On the other hand, is the Quran telling us to follow the Messengers example, how he relied on Allah at all times, and passed all the trials and tribulations he faced without ever losing faith in Allah. Prophet Muhammads patience in overcoming difficult times and encouraging others to do the same, fearing Allah as well as upholding the Qur'an at all times. Basically, everything which makes a great believer to Allah is what made the prophet an Uswatun Hasana / 'excellent example'.

The Qur'an extols the Prophet Muhammad's high character.

Verily you are of a high and noble character. Sura 68/4 Among you is a Messenger who is distressed by your difficulties. He is anxious for your welfare, and is generous towards the believers. Sura 9/128
54 | P a g e

With Allah's grace, you behaved with them with a kind heart. For if you were vengeful or hard hearted, they may have abandoned you. Sura 3/159 The Prophet was sincere and honest in all his matters, as Allah had ordered him. Allah, the Exalted, says: "Say, Indeed, my prayer, my rites of sacrifice, my living and my dying are for Allah, Lord of the worlds. No partner has He. And this I have been commanded and I am the first (among you) of the Muslims." Sura 6/162-163

What was the teachings of the Messenger?

Hence, the Quran is very clear as to what consists of the divine teachings conveyed by the messenger and what is it that he forbids people from. He is giving only the Quran as divine teaching: "We know best what they say, and you are not one to compel them; therefore remind him by means of the Quran who fears My Promise." Sura 50/45 "Shall I then seek a Ruler other than Allah? When He it is Who has revealed to you the Book which is distinctly elucidated;" Sura 6/114 "And this Quran has been revealed to me that with it I may warn you and whomsoever it reaches" Sura 6/19 "And this is a Book We have revealed, blessed; therefore follow it and guard against evil that mercy may be shown to you." Sura 6/155 The Quran tells us that it was the Quran that the messenger was conveying to the people as wahyun (Revelation), Allah forbids us from accepting any other Book outside of the Divine revelations revealed already as Allahs guidance other than the divine revelations revealed by Allah. "Say: Then bring some (other) book from Allah which is a better guide than both of them, (Tawrah / Quran) that I may follow it, if you are truthful." Sura 28/49

A Book revealed to you so let there be no straitness in your breast on account of it that you may warn thereby, and a reminder close to the believers. Follow what has been

55 | P a g e

revealed to you from your Sustainer and do not follow awliya (any allies) besides Him how little do you mind." Sura 7:2-3 "And We have not given them any kutubin (books) yadrusnah (which they study), nor did We send to them before you a warner." Sura 34:44

Thus, studying the Quran carefully, we will see what the Quran informed as to what the messenger conveyed as divine orders and what is it that he asked his people to abstain from:
"But nay, by thy lord, they will not believe (in truth) until they make you judge of what is in dispute between them and find within themselves no dislike of that which you decide, and submit with full submission." Sura 4/65 Now its clear in the Quran that the eople are to make the messenger a judge between their disputes, and accept his decisions with the fullest conviction. But the question that should be asked, how did the messenger judge among the people?

Did the Prophet Muhamamd govern by his own mind, his own rules, his own desires? The Quran provides us the answer to this question when it states:
And judge, between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations and beware of them, lest they tempt you away from some of what Allah has revealed to you. And if they turn away then know that Allah only intends to afflict them with some of their [own] sins. And indeed, many among the people are defiantly disobedient. Sura 5/49 So here we have in a clear ayat that the Prophet Muhammad was a judge among the people this we can see however, his judgements and decisions were not by his own self, his own desires but he governed by the Book of Allah. Thus it is clear from the above ayat the the Messenger of Allah didnt pass judgment on his own accord but he did execute judgement among the people by the Book of Allah and the differences and disputes were resolved by Allahs Book, and not any other book or opinion.

His people didnt call him a liar but they did reject the ayats of Allah:
56 | P a g e

"We know indeed that what they say certainly grieves you, but surely they do not call you a liar; but the unjust deny biyti (the verses)of Allah." Sura 6/33 "And recite that which hath been revealed unto you of kitbi (the Book) of your Sustainer. There is none who can change His words, and you wilt find no refuge beside Him." Sura 18/27 Now the Sunnis and Shites once again believes this goes outside of the Quran and makes us follow the personal, human side of the Messenger which leads us to idolizing the Prophet name Muhammad and his personal traits. Hence, the Personal traits are what everyone will have and they vary with worldly variables - everyone is entitled to have their own likes and habits, and they should be appreciated as what makes each of us unique. We are not told to look outside of the Quran for the Uswatun Hasana / 'excellent example' of the Messenger. All we need is right in the Quran. But like the Christians who idolize Isa ibn Maryam and make certain unique expressions like son of Elohim or raising the dead exclusive for Isa ibn Maryam in which they are not, Sunnis and Shites have done the same to the Prophet Muhammad saying that the expression Uswatun Hasana / 'excellent example' is exclusive just to the Prophet Muhammad. Upon further investigation, studying the Quran carefully, we see that the identical phrase has been used in the following verse to describe Prophet Ibrahim: "There has been an Uswatun Hasana / Ibrahim and those with him..." Sura 60/4 'excellent example' set for you by

They claim that the Hadith and Sunnah of the Prophet are demonstrated by the Quran to be divinely inspired and to form a permenant part of the message of Allah to man. This is far from the truth. Since Prophet Ibrahim was the same "uswatun hasana / ", and it does not mean his habits and personal attributes - rather his faith, we thus see that indeed we have the correct understanding of "uswatun hasana / " as applicable to Prophet Muhammad, since the same words are used to describe both of them. Below is from the Quranic Arabic Corpus, an annotated linguistic resource which shows the Arabic grammar, syntax and morphology for each word in the Quran.

61 | P a g e

Prophet Muhammad was instructed to say, Say:

"I tell you not that with me are the Treasures of Allah, nor do I know what is hidden, nor do I tell you I am an angel. I but attabiu (follow) what is revealed to me." Say: "Can the blind be held equal to the seeing?" Will ye then consider not? Sura 6/50

Prophet Muhammad was instructed to say, Say:

Say, "I am not different from other messengers, I have no idea what will happen to me or to you. I only attabiu (follow) what is revealed to me. I am no more than a profound warner." Sura 46:9 "And warn Nasi of a day when the doom will come upon them, and those who did wrong will say: Our L ord! Reprieve us for a little while. nujib (We will answer) dawataka (Your call) wanattabii (and will follow) rusula (the messengers). (It will be answered): Did ye not swear before that there would be no end for you?" Surah 14:44 Hence, since 'obey the messenger' means Hadith to some did all of the messengers bring a 'Sunnah' to follow?

If you notice here Allah ask the question:

"nujib (We will answer) dawataka (Your call)" so what is the difference from the Prophet Muhammad being instructed to say: "Say: obey Allah and the messenger. But if they turn away, lo! Allah loveth not the disbelievers (in His guidance)." Surah 3:32 and in continuance of obeying which comes first Allah says:

"wanattabii (and will follow) rusula (the messengers)"

Notice it says and follow the 'messengers' what is the difference from the Prophet Muhammad saying:
"Say: If ye love Allah, follow me; Allah will love you and forgive you your sins. Allah is Forgiving, Merciful." Surah 3:31 So we have here in the plural 'obey' the call of the 'messengers' and we have follow the 'messengers' so this tells me that 'obeying the messenger' isn't unique in the Qur'an just
62 | P a g e

for the Prophet Muhammad. And if this is the case as some Muslims following Hadith claim then they would have to produce evidence instructing us to follow other 'Hadith' and 'Sunnah' practices other than the Divine revelations that were revealed by Allah to previous Messengers of the past.

To follow only means following their example as set in the Quran...

1) How they was humble, 2) how they was patient, 3) how they had trust in Allah... 4) Following them on the straight path... 5) Following their attitude towards the poor and how they treated others Allah says, "And We had certainly given Ibrahim rush'dahu (his guidance) before, and We were of him well-Knowing." 21/51 "And thus did We show Abraham the realm of the heavens and the earth that he would be among the certain [in faith]. So when the night covered him [with darkness], he saw a star. He said, "This is my lord." But when it set, he said, "I like not those that disappear." And when he saw the moon rising, he said, "This is my lord." But when it set, he said, "Unless my Lord guides me, I will surely be among the people gone astray." And when he saw the sun rising, he said, "This is my lord; this is greater." But when it set, he said, "O my people, indeed I am free from what you associate with Allah . Indeed, I have turned my face toward He who created the heavens and the earth, inclining toward truth, and I am not of those who associate others with Allah ." wajjahu (And with him) his people. He said, "atujjnn (Do you argue with me) concerning Allah while hadni (He has guided me)? And I fear not what tush'rikna (you associate) with Him unless my Lord should will something. My Lord encompasses all things in knowledge; then will you not remember? And how should I fear what you associate while you do not fear that you have associated with Allah that for which He has not sent down to you any authority? So which of the two parties has more right to security, if you should know? They who believe and do not mix their belief with injustice - those will have security, and they are [rightly] guided. And that ujjatun (was Our [conclusive] argument) which We gave Abraham against his people. We raise by degrees whom We will. Indeed, your Lord is Wise and Knowing." Sura 6/75-83
63 | P a g e

Allah tells us to follow the Millata (the creed) of Ibrahim and also to use him as an example.
Allah says, "There has already been for you an us'watun asanatun (excellent example) in Ibrahim and those with him, when they said to their people, "Indeed, we are disassociated from you and from whatever you worship other than Allah . We have denied you, and there has appeared between us and you animosity and hatred forever until you believe in Allah alone" except for the saying of Ibrahim to his father, "I will surely ask forgiveness for you, but I have not power to do for you anything against Allah . Our Lord, upon You we have relied, and to You we have returned, and to You is the destination." 60/4 "There has certainly been for you in them an us'watun asanatun (excellent example) for anyone whose hope is in Allah and the Last Day. And whoever turns away - then indeed, Allah is the Free of need, the Praiseworthy." 60/6 Allah also says about Prophet Ibrahim uses the same Arabic word us'watun asanatun (excellent example) which means excellent example. We are advised to take Prophet Ibrahim as example.. and one of the example of Ibrahim is his search for Allah through. 1) logic, 2) judgement, 3) reflection on the signs.. 4) then he was guided... There are many verses which point to this direction as well. Unless we want to say that Allah pick and choose who He wants to guide.. hence, doing injustice to others. Whereas, regarding Prophet Ibrahim his example is SET in the Quran for us to FOLLOW. For example Allah set the parable of a blind and a seer... It does not imply that we need to become blind to experience the lesson from this example.. Its clear that Prophet Ibrahim used his LOGIC to find Allah and when Prophet Ibrahim LOOKED at the SUN and deduced that it is AKBAR...

64 | P a g e

What is this kind of thought process and how do we come to conclusion about something being bigger we need to:
1) OBSERVE, 2) CONTEMPLATE, 3) COMPARE then 4) DEDUCE Also, Ibrahim basically STUCK to this verse of the Quran which is applicable on anyoneand anyone with intelligence and sane mind.

We are told to follow the Millata Ibrahim just like Prophet Muhammad was told to follow
Allah NEVER says the Prophet Muhammad was the BEST EXAMPLE in Sura 33/21 again I presented the same exact Arabic word that Allah used in Sura 33/21 also was used for Ibrahim in Sura 60/4. And we are also told LITERALLY that the Prophet was instructed to follow who, Prophet Ibrahim and the Millata Ibrahim is mentioned throughout the Qur'an by name. Unfortunately, there is never one ayat that says to follow the Sunnah of Muhammad or the Hadith of Muhammad. I'm not arguing at all or imposing my views just here to ask questions and present my perspectives and research from what I have learned. This is clear that Prophet Muhammad did not bring anything new of his own. Why is the Millata Ibrahim mentioned throughout the Qur'an and not one time does Allah mention in a clear ayat to follow the Sunnatu Rasoolullah or Sunnah of the Messenger or Sunnah of Muhammad? Allah says, "Then We inspired to you: "You shall ittabi (follow) millata ibrahima (the way of Ibrahim), anfan (upright), and he was not of those who set up partners." Sura 16/123 The infinitive imla meaning to dictate, contains the notion of something which is dictated from any divine or undivine, mighty or unmighty, holy or non-holy source. The word milla in its religious sense means a way, a path, or a cult which is dictated and presented by a divine or perhaps undivine leader or group. Both cases have been
65 | P a g e

exemplified in the Quran: "Who would abandon millati ib'rhma (the creed of Ibrahim) except one who fools himself? We have selected him in this world, and in the Hereafter, he is of the reformers." Sura 2/130

Again, Allah is instructing the Prophet Muhammad to call to the millata Ibrahim (the way of Ibrahim):
"Say, " Allah has told the truth. fa-ittabi (then follow) millata ibrahima (the way of Ibrahim) inclining toward truth; and he was not of the polytheists." Sura 3/95 "And who is fairer dnan (in the way) of life than he who submitted his face to Allah and he is one who is a doer of good wa-ittabaa (and follows) millata ibrahima (the way of Ibrahim), anfan (upright)? And Allah took Ibrahim to Himself khallan (as a friend)." Sura 4/125

Prophet Yusuf abandoned millita (the way) of his people who didn't belief in Allah along with rejecting the hereafter:
He said: "There is not any provision of food that will come to you except that I will tell you of its interpretation before it comes. That is from what my Lord has taught me. I have just left millata (the way) qawmin (of a people) who do not believe in Allah, and they are rejecting the Hereafter." Sura 12/37 Again and again we are told by Allah in His Book, the Qur'an to follow what, is it the Sunnatu Rasoolulllah or the Millata Ibrahim? Prophet Yusuf tells them clearly who he follows: Allah says, "wa-ittabatu (And I follow) millata (the way) b (of my fathers): ib'rhma, Isaac, and Jacob. It was not for us to set up partners with God at all. That is Allah's blessings over us and over the people, but most of the people are not thankful." Sura 12/38

66 | P a g e

He was fearless in his expression of faith. He argued with the religious establishment, and the man who was given the kingdom.
Have you not considered him (Namrud) who disputed with Ibrahim about his Lord, because Allah had given him the kingdom? When Ibrahim said: My Lord is He who gives life and causes to die, he said: I give life and cause death. Ibrahim said: So surely Allah causes the sun to rise from the east, then make it rise from the west; thus he who disbelieved was confounded; and Allah does not guide aright the unjust people. Sura 2/258

He was compassionate, forbearing and humble.

Ibrahim was certainly a forbearing, compassionate, and tender-hearted person. Sura 11/75

He was hospitable.
And certainly did Our messengers come to Ibrahim with good tidings; they said, "Peace." He said, "Peace," and did not delay in bringing [them] a roasted calf. Sura 11/69

Prophet Ibrahim even questioned Allah; how he will resurrect humankind?

And when Abraham said (unto his Lord): My Lord! Show me how Thou givest life to the dead, He said: Dost thou not believe? Abraham said: Yea, but (I ask) in order that my heart may be at ease. (His Lord) said: Take four of the birds and cause them to incline unto thee, then place a part of them on each hill, then call them, they will come to thee in haste, and know that Allah is Mighty, Wise. Sura 2 260 Thus, milla in its most elementary concept is employed to mean path, rite or system itself, as it may be applicable to people who follow that rite or way.Allah instructs us to struggle in His way, and also from Allah Himself tells us that our millatat (the way) is the way of our father Ibrahim. Thus, people are requested to recognize and practice the divine way of the prophet Ibrahim. All of the above ayats indicates that at Ibrahims milla as a divine path and or way. Hence, since a divine path like that of Ibrahim was revealed and dictated by Allah, it is called milla in the sense that it is a dictated path that should be followed by the
67 | P a g e

adherents of that divine dinan (manner of conduct). In either case, milla in its divine sense is also attributed to the prophet or to the leader of a dinan (system). All of these examples from Prophet Ibrahim can be found right in the Book of Allah but the key is that we have to study His Book. Do we need to go to outside books to find the Prophet Ibrahim's excellent example, no. Now Allah uses the same Arabic word us'watun asanatun (excellent example) that was used for Prophet Ibrahim now Allah uses it for Prophet Muhammad. The Prophet Muhammad once again did not come with a new dinan/system or 'millata/way or sunnah'. The Prophet Muhammad only followed what was revealed to him from his Lord which was the Qur'an alone.

What does Allah says about the Prophet Muhammad?

And indeed, you are khuluqin (of a moral character)amin (great). Sura 68/4 Indeed, in the messenger of Allah an Uswatun Hasana (excellent example) has been set for you for he who seeks Allah and the Last Day and thinks constantly about Allah. (Quran 33:21)

Does the Quran says that we need to look outside of the Quran for the Messengers character?
Now the thing is Not I, but Allah tells us that His Book is COMPLETE, PERFECT,

FULLY DETAILED AND THAT IT EXPLAINS ALL THINGS Sura 6/114115; 16/89; 6/38; 12/111 and the question is do we believe what Allah says about His Book? Do we believe the Qur'an has everything we need to know about how we should practice this din He established for us and do we believe the Qur'an has this example of our Prophet Muhammad because if we don't believe the Qur'an contains the good example of the Prophet this means we have to put down the Qur'an the very Qur'an Allah says that is Complete, Perfect, Fully Detailed and that it explains all things and pick up books written by man. This would mean the Qur'an is deficient and is in need of man's assistance because it lacks the Prophet Muhammad's example so now we have to go pick up a book of Hadith the very books filled with contradictions and other things we can't believe.

68 | P a g e

Also reflect on this Allah tells us also to look to Prophet Ibrahim's example and his followers and Allah uses the same Arabic word that was used for Prophet Muhammad Uswatun Hasana.

Do you follow Prophet Ibrahim's example and if so where do you get the example is it in Qur'an or outside books?
When we read the Qur'an we are given detail about what the Prophets of Allah went through including the Prophet Muhammad. We know that the Prophet Muhammad faced a terrifying challenge in delivering the word of Allah to a people who were accustomed to a way of life and traditions that completely contradicted the Sunnatu Allah (Sunnah of Allah).

Abraham the friend of Allah

And who asanu (is better) dnan (in code of conduct) than one who aslama (submits) himself to Allah while being mu'sinun (a doer of good) wa-ittabaa (and follows) millata ib'rhma, anfan (the upright)? And Allah took Abraham as khallan (an friend). Sura 4/125 "Didst not thou, O our Elohim, drive out the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and give it for ever to the descendants of Abraham thy friend?" 2 Chronicles 20/7 "You, Israel, my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the offspring of Abraham, my friend". lsaiah 41/8 "Abraham believed Elohim and it was reckoned to him as righteousness," and he was called the friend of Elohim. James 2/23 Because of the description given to Abraham in Surah 4/125, that Elohim took him for a khalil, a friend, he is thus called Khalilullah in Islam. Here we have our first point of contact with Islam regarding the person of Abraham. The next thing to do is to examine the implication of the title - why was Abraham called the Friend of Elohim and what relationship between them is implied in the description?

Obey the Messenger or obey the man, the Prophet

Remember, Allah says:
69 | P a g e

"It is He who has sent down to you, the Book; in it are verses mu'kamtun (that are precise) - they are ummu (the foundation) of the Book -wa-ukharu (and others) mutashbihtun (unspecific/unclear). As for those in whose hearts is deviation, fayattabina (they will follow) that of it which is unspecific/unclear, seeking fit'nati (discord) and seeking an interpretation. And no one knows its [true] interpretation except Allah . But those firm in knowledge say, "We believe in it. All [of it] is from our Lord." And no one will be reminded except those of understanding." Sura 3/7 Within the Quran we have mu'kamtun (that are precise) - they are ummu (the foundation) and the other ayats we have wa-ukharu (and others) mutashbihtun (unspecific/unclear) and again the Sunnis and Shites presents the Hadith and Sunnah of Muhammad that they claim exist within the Quran as mutashbihtun (unspecific/unclear) ayats. Another belief of theirs as to why we should follow the Sunnah of Muhammad that is nowhere to be found throughout the Quran is when Allah says Obey the Messenger. Remember Allah says, "Verily this Qur'an directs you to the path aqwamu (that is straight), and gives happy tidings to those who believe and do the right: For them is a great reward." 17/9 So now we know what guides us to the path that is most straight and it has nothing to do with the Hadith and Sunnah books of Sahih Bukhari/Muslim and company. It is the Qur'an that guides us to the path that is straight. It is the Qur'an that the Prophet Muhammad obeyed/followed and called to. Allah says: "A book hath been sent down unto thee: And therefore let there be no doubt in thy breast concerning it; that thou mayest preach the same, and that it may be an admonition unto the believers. ittabi (Follow) what has been sent down to you from your Lord and do not follow any protectors apart from Him. How little you remember!" 7/2-3 They say 'Obey the Messenger' means to 'Obey Muhammad's Speech/Hadith' also contained in the Hadith books of Sahih Bukhari/Muslim and company. Now what does the Qur'an say about this matter is the question we should be asking.

70 | P a g e

A messenger perhaps any messenger must have a message to be a messenger, hence, when you call someone a "messenger" you are directly linking them to the message, no ifs or buts about it. Allah says : He who yutii (obeys) the Messenger, aa (obeyed)Allah. But if any turn away, We have not sent thee to watch over their (evil deeds). Surah 4/80 Now lets examine the usage of the Arabic word yuii (obeys) in the Quran for further clarity of the matter and how its used. Allah says, The Messenger believeth in what hath been revealed to him from his Lord, as do the men of faith. Each one (of them) believeth in Allah, His angels, His books, and His apostles. "We make no distinction (they say) between one and another of His apostles." And they say: "We hear,wa-aan (and we obeyed): (We seek) Thy forgiveness, our Lord, and to Thee is the end of all journeys." Surah 2:285 Remember also the expression Obey the Messenger isnt unique and exclusive again just for the Prophet Muhammad. As I have demonstrated with other expressions such as Uswatun Hasana/Excellent Example is used for Prophet Ibrahim He who yutii (obeys) the Messenger, aa (obeyed) Allah

This is not a unique expression for the Prophet Muhammad, thus it is for all of the Prophets of Allah:
In Surah 26:108, Allah tells us to OBEY Prophet Noah, "So fear Allah, wa-ani (and obey me)" Also in Surah 71:3, Noah said, That ye should worship Allah, fear Him wa-ani (and obey me) Allah tells us to OBEY Prophet Hud in Surah 26:126 So fear Allah, wa-ani (and obey me)

71 | P a g e

Allah tells us to OBEY Prophet Saaleh in Surah 26:144 fear Allah, wa-ani (and obey me) and in Surah 26:150 fear Allah, wa-ani (and obey me) Allah tells us to OBEY Prophet LOT in Surah 26:163 You shall fear Allah waani(and obey me). Allah tells us to OBEY Prophet Shuaib in Surah 26:179 fear Allah wa-ani (and obey me) Allah tells us to OBEY Prophet Isa in Surah 43:63 When Isa came with Clear Signs, he said: "Now have I come to you with Wisdom, and in order to make clear to you some of the (points) on which ye dispute: therefore fear Allah wa-ani (and obey me). Now we have to ask ourselves does Allah say that it was only the Prophet Muhammad as a Messenger of Allah was supposed to be followed. Of course not, all of the messengers were sent to be obeyed as the Quran tells us.

Now compare what the Prophet Muhammad was instructed to say:

"And wa-a (obey) Allah and wa-a (obey) the messenger and be cautious; but if you turn back, then know that the sole duty of the messenger is the deliverance (of the message)" Surah 5:92 "And wa-a (obey) Allah wa-a (and obey) the messenger, but if you turn back, then upon Our messenger is the sole duty of the clear delivery (of the message)" 64:12 Whoever yuii (obeys) Allah and his Messenger will be admitted to gardens beneath which rivers flow to live there (forever), and that will be the great achievement (Surah An-Nisa 4:13) In Surah 3:132 wa-a (and obey) Allah and the Messenger; that ye may obtain mercy. In Surah 47:33 Allah says, O ye who believe! wa-a (obey) Allah and wa-a (obey) the Messenger, and make not vain your deeds! Now if you research the word Messenger, is derived from the word Message. The duty of a Messenger is to deliver a Message. Now if there was no message there would be no messenger. Hence, to Obey the Messenger would thus mean to obey the message he is delivering.
72 | P a g e

Further research will make it clear in the Quran that in the Book of Allah we never read anywhere in the Quran words like "Obey Allah and obey Muhammad" or obey Isa, or obey Moses as I have shown earlier.

"Obey the messenger" and never does Allah say to obey the Prophet
This is to emphasize that it is the "message" of Allah that is to be obeyed and not the personal words or views of the messenger. Again, the word Messenger is derived from the word Message and if there was no message there would be no messenger. Hence, to Obey the Messenger means to obey the message he delivered. In the Quran we are told clearly that the purpose of the Messenger is to deliver the message and for them to be obeyed. Allah says: "And warn nsa (Abrahamic Nation/People) of a day when the doom will come upon them, and those who did wrong will say: Our Lord! Reprieve us for a little while. nujib (We will answer) dawataka (Your call) wanattabii (AND WE WILL FOLLOW) rusula (the messengers). (It will be answered): Did ye not swear before that there would be no end for you?" Surah 14/44 wam (And not) arsaln (We send) any Messenger ill (except) liyua (to be obeyed) bi-idh'ni (by the permission) of Allah. If they ever do injustice to themselves and come to you asking for Allah's forgiveness and if the Messenger also was to ask Allah to forgive them, they would certainly find Allah All-forgiving and All-merciful. Sura 4/64 These ayats above says it clearly that all of Allahs Messengers were to be obeyed by Allahs Permission even Prophet Muhammad. Did all of Allahs Messengers come with their own Hadith and Sunnah books outside of having Al Kitab.

Allah tells us about people who assume and attribute partners/laws to Allah without Allahs permission:
Allah says: "And [that] He may punish the hypocrite men and hypocrite women, and the polytheist men and polytheist women - those nna (who assume) about Allah anna (an assumption) of evil nature. Upon them is a misfortune of evil nature; and Allah
73 | P a g e

has become angry with them and has cursed them and prepared for them Hell, and evil it is as a destination." Sura 48/6 "Lo! is it not unto Allah that belongeth whosoever is in the heavens and whosoever is in the earth? And not yattabiu (follow) those who invoke other than Allah, shuraka (partners) not yattabina (they follow) but ana (the assumption/conjecture), and they do but yakhruna (guess)." Sura 10/66 These followers of Hadith has made Hadith shuraka (partners) with Allah because they follow zana (the assumption/conjecture) which is only but guesswork:

The Majority of Muslims follow Hadith/Sunnah books and pays lip service to Qur'an. Allah warns us not to follow majority:
"And if you obey akthara (most) of those upon the earth, yuillka (they will mislead you) from sabli lahi (the way of Allah). Not yattabina (they follow) not except ana (the assumption), and not they do except yakhruna (guess)." Sura 6/116 "Those who associated with Allah will say, "If Allah had willed, we would not have associated anything and neither would our fathers, nor would we have prohibited anything." Likewise did those before deny until they tasted Our punishment. qul (Say), "hal (is) indakum (with you) min (of) il'min (any knowledge) fatukh'rijhu (then produce it) lan (for us)? in (Not) tattabina (you follow) illa (except) ana (the assumption), and not you do but takhruna (guess).qul (Say) falillahi (with Allah) ujatu (is the argument) blighatu (the conclusive). And if He willed surely He would have guided you all." Sura 6/148-49 Majority of Muslims between Sunnis and Shites all follow assumption, conjecture, and hearsay in the form of Hadith. Allah says clearly that with Allah is the argument conclusive. Allah says the Quran is the Best Hadith that guides straight by Allahs Permission.

Some say the Prophet Muhammad received other Wahyun (Revelation) besides the Quran
We have to study the Quran and see how Allah speaks to human beings because Allah provides us all the information we need to get a better understanding. For
74 | P a g e

example Allah says: It is not fitting libasharin (for any human) yukallimahu lahu (that Allah should speak to him) except wayan (by revealation), or from behind ijbin (a veil), or yur'sila (by the sending) raslan (a messenger) to reveal, with Allahs permission, what Allah wills: for He is Most High, Most Wise Sura 42:51 A lot of Sunnis and Shites claim that the Prophet Muhammad received outside revelation other than the Quran. They alleged that these additional sources, attempts to prove that Prophet Muhammad received "revelations" other than the Qur'an, which are said to be scattered in other books called ahadith. Proving that those hidden revelations 'other books' were revelations too like the Qur'an. They also try to convince people to follow those additional books and writings and compilations alongside the Qur'an.

A verse used to prove that there were additional revelations to the Prophet Muhammad is the following ayat:
Allah says: "The Prophet told something in confidence to one of his wives adthan and when she informed about it - wa-aharahu (and made it apparent) Allah to him and he confirmed part of it, keeping the rest to himself - so he confronted her with what she had done. She asked, 'Who told you about this?' and he replied, 'The All-Knowing, the All-Aware told me. Sura 66/3 The question to Sunnis and Shites is why do they believe this is wahyan (revelation) that was supposed to be revealed to the masses of the people? Hence, the Prophets wife disclosed confidential information, which the Prophet Muhammad had entrusted her with, without the prophet's knowledge. However, the way by which the Prophet Muhammad was informed of what she did can be in any worldly means, since everything is from Allah. A particular companion may have informed the prophet however, in the good interest of concealing his or her identity, the prophet instead used the expression "The All-Knowing, the All-Aware informed me". This is to not strain the relationship between the companion and the wife in concern. We must not forget that Prophet Muhammad put complete trust in Allah and adhered to Quranic understanding of faith. Everything happens to us through the will of Allah. Thus, it would be very natural for him to use the expression, "The All-Knowing, the All-Aware informed me" instead of revealing the name of the companion. The
75 | P a g e

following verses of the Qur'an conveys to us that whatever happens to us at a worldly level, happens because of Allah: "It was not you who killed them but Allah. And it was not your throw when you threw, rather Allah threw." Sura 8/17 "Say, 'nothing can happen to us except for what Allah has written for us. He is our Master: let the believers put their trust in Allah" Sura 9/51 Among the Sunnis and Shites who love to defend their doctrine of Hadith would say that Sura 66/3 represents outside wahyun (revelations) that would involve hearsay stories. However, with the ayat alone, we can draw certain lessons such as how we, ourselves may respond to situations around us - how we should consider the wellbeing of relationships between other people and not just people's relationship with us. Even if the Prophet Muhammad had received other communications, they are not part of the Quranic guidance for us and therefore, such communications do not form as part of the Guide for Al Ins, An Nas and Jinn. For example, Maryam received communication from Allah, but those communications were not part of a Scripture of Allah - they were just communications of 'circumstantial' information such as her being informed of the coming of her baby, the Prophet Isa. Likewise, if Prophet Muhammad received communication for some purposes, the fact that it is not part of the Qur'an renders it to be not part of the Guide for alamin. This is because only Books of Allah are to be followed by people as pointed out throughout the Qur'an.

Allah tells us that the Prophet Muhammad conveyed the message to alamin and if he would have not conveyed all what was obligatory for him to convey he would not have completed his assignment:
Allah says: O Messenger, announce that which has been revealed to you from your Lord, and if you do not, then you have not conveyed His message. And Allah will protect you from the people. Indeed, Allah does not guide the disbelieving people. Sura 5/67

Now a lot of Muslims love to say that the Prophet was given outside revelations of the Quran by always using another ayat such as:
76 | P a g e

"It is not but wayun (a revelation) y (revealed)..." Sura 53/4 Now we know that it was only the Quran which is wahyun (revelation) that is being mention here because everything the Prophet Muhammad spoke was not wahyun (revelation). Allah chastises the Prophet Muhammad in the Quran.

The Prophet Muhammad made something unlawful that was made lawful by Allah:
O you prophet, why do you make unlawful what Allah has made lawful for you, seeking to please your wives? Allah is Forgiver, Merciful. Sura 66/1 Notice, Allah addresses Muhammad as O you Prophet and not O you Messenger first. The Prophet status represents the human side of the Messenger. As a Prophet he is bound to make mistakes, commit errors however, as the Messenger he speaks the words of Allah and is never chastised as Messenger. We have the human side of the Messenger, hence Prophet who name is Muhammad spoke outside of wahyun (revelation). This was not included in the Quran when the Prophet Muhammad committed the sin, made the mistake but Allah brings him to account for it. No Sunni or Shite would say that this also represents wahyun (revelation). So by Sunnis and Shites saying It is not but wayun (revelation) y (revealed)..." have to say that it is only the Quran that is wahyun (revelation) and the human side of the Prophet, Nataq-un-Nab (Speech of Nabi) is not wahyun (revelation). Nataq-un-Nabi (Speech of Nabi) is outside of the Quran allegedly collected in the books called ahadith. Also what should be mentioned is how the Sunnis and Shites forget about another ayat that uses the same word wahyun (revelation) that deals with the Prophet Muhammad. Allah tells the Prophet Muhammad follow the Millata Ibrahim. Allah says: "Then awayn (We revealed) to ittabi (you follow) the millata religion ib'rhma, inclining toward truth; and he was not of those who associate with Allah." Sura 16:123 Then awayn (We revealed) so the question is when did the Prophet Muhammad get this NEW REVELATION. If Sunnis and Shites going to say he received an extra revelation would be here. It says clearly awayn (We revealed) to ittabi (you follow) yet this is overlooked. The Arabic word awayn is the same as

77 | P a g e

wayun. Remember, the Sunnis and Shites believe the Prophet Muhammad received more than just the Quran and they have Ahadith that says that the Prophet was given the Quran and something like it, or its equal. I was given the Quran and its equal with it (i.e., the Sunnah) (A Sahih Hadith; Al-Hadithu Hujjatun bi-Nafsihi [21]). 29. [Albani, Muhammad Nasir ad-Deen. Al-Hadithu Hujjatun bi-Nafsihi fi-l-Ahkami wa-l-Aqa-id (The Hadith is Proof Itself in Matters of Law and Creed) (Pg. 26-27)] (Introduction to: Muhammad The Prophet of Mercy Muhammads Role in Islam, by Jalal Abualrub, edited by Alaa Mencke [Madinah Publishers and Distributors, First Edition: June 2007], p. 34)

Narrated Al-Miqdam ibn Madikarib:

The Prophet said:

Beware! I have been given the Quran and something like it, yet the
time is coming when a man replete on his couch will say: Keep to the Quran; what you find in it to be permissible treat as permissible, and what you find in it to be prohibited treat as prohibited. Beware! The domestic ass, beasts of prey with fangs, a find belonging to confederate, unless its owner does not want it, are not permissible to you If anyone comes to some people, they must entertain him, but if they do not, he has a right to mulct them to an amount equivalent to his entertainment. (Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 40, Number 4587)

Now what does Allah say about those who lie and say inspiration, the same Arabic word awayn wayun is also being used ya below:
Allah says: And who is more unjust than one who invents a lie about Allah or says, "ya (It has been inspired) to me," while not ya (it was inspired) to him, and one who says, "saunzilu (I will reveal) mith'la (like) anzala (has been revealed) by Allah." And if you could but see when the wrongdoers are in the overwhelming pangs of death while the angels extend their hands, [saying], "Discharge your souls! Today you will be awarded the punishment of [extreme] humiliation for what you used to say against Allah other than the truth and [that] you were, toward His verses, being arrogant." Sura 6/93

78 | P a g e

So these disbelievers are those who invented a lie and say that they were inspired yet Allah says they were not inspired and the other says they will reveal something like what was revealed by Allah. This fits perfectly in the above ayat exposing Hadith.

Narrated Al-Miqdam ibn Madikarib:

The Prophet said: Beware! I have been given the Quran and something like it,

The Almighty says about His Self:

There is nothing that equals Him. He is the Hearer, the Seer. Sura 42/11

And He says about His Book:

Say, If all the humans and all the jinns banded together in order to produce a Quran like this, they could never produce anything like it Sura 17/88 Hence, there is no equal to the Quran except for what Allah says such as the Tawrah which is also Allahs Book, just as there is no equal to Allah!

Allah is one in His Self and in His attributes, and there is no one like Him from among His creations,
Proclaim, He is the One and only God. The Absolute God. Never did He beget. Nor was He begotten. None equals Him. Sura 112/1-4

It isnt within the capability of any creation to create one chapter like a Quranic Sura:
then produce one sura like these Sura 2/23 and then produce one sura like these Sura 10/38 There is no equal to the Quran, and there is no chapter which is equal to any chapter of the Quran. In spite of this, they claim that Allah revealed to the prophet the Quran and its equal alongside it, so where is this equal thing if Allah has denied its existence?

79 | P a g e

Allah time and time again tells the Prophet Muhammad to follow that which is revealed to him:
And follow what y (is revealed) to you, and be patient until Allah will judge. And He is the best of judges. Sura 10/109 And indeed, they were about to tempt you away from that which awayn (We revealed) to you in order to [make] you invent about Us something else; and then they would have taken you as a friend. Sura 17/73 For the purpose of time verify other references with the same Arabic word http://corpus.quran.com/qurandictionary.jsp?q=wHy#(16:68:1) (21:73) wa-awayn (21:108) y (23:27) fa-awayn (26:52) wa-awayn (26:63) fa-awayn (28:7) wa-awayn (29:45) iya And We inspired it is revealed So We inspired And We inspired Then We inspired And We inspired has been revealed

(53:4) wayun

a revelation

Remember, when Sunnis and Shites want to use this ayat to defend their doctrine of ahadith outside of the Quran when Allah says: "It is not but wayun (revelation) y (revealed)..." Sura 53/4 The Arabic word wahyun (revelation) yuha (revealed) are the same exact words used from the above references for the Prophet Muhammad and other Prophets and people as well.

What you didnt know that Allah mentioned throughout His Book, the Quran the Arabic word Hadith?
The convention is that Allah, brings down to every Prophet a whole, complete, and detailed book. However, it isnt long before the Shaytanu compels men to corrupt the din/system of Allah with manipulation and with forgery. Then, the Shaytanu compels them to create other sources which are considered divine; naturally, these people are to be considered enemies of the prophets. Allah says, We have permitted the enemies of every prophet - shayn (devils) from among ins and jini y (inspiring) bauhum (some of them) to others zukh'rufa (decorative) qawli (speech) ghurran (in deception). Had your Lord willed, they would not have done it. You shall disregard them and their fabrications. This is to let the minds of those who do not believe in the Hereafter listen to such fabrications, and accept them, and thus expose their real convictions. Shall I seek other than Allah as a source of law, when He has revealed to you this book fully detailed?" Sura 6/112-114 Thus did the hypocrites begin to scheme against Islam in this way. It was these hypocrites used to enter upon the prophet presenting to him their obedience and allegiance, then once they left, they would scheme against him; Allah confirms this: Allah says, They atun (pledge obedience), but as soon as they leave you, bayyata (harbor intentions) ifatun (a group) min'hum (of them) ghayra (other than) alladh (that

82 | P a g e

which) taqlu (you say). Allah records their innermost intentions. You shall disregard them, and put your trust in Allah " Sura 4/81 Think about this carefully, Allahs saying: bayyata (harbor intentions) ifatun (a group) min'hum (of them) ghayra (other than) alladh (that which) taqlu (you say). What does this truly mean? It means that the hypocrites used to forge sayings about the prophet which he didnt say, or, as the hadith philologists put it, they used to present fabricated hadith which they attributed to the prophet; that is to say, the hypocrites began telling lies about the prophet during his life. Now how can we believe in Hadith when Allah NEVER promise to protect anything from what the Prophet Muhammad was revealed which was nothing other than Al Qur'an. They atun (pledge obedience), but as soon as they leave you Allah is saying that these hypocrites were known to the prophet. The reality is that the hypocrites were of two types in the prophets time: The first type were known to the Prophet Muhammad and he was instructed by Allah not to be intrigued by their wealth and children, nor should he pray for any one of them that passes away, nor should he maintain his grave Sura 9/84-85; for amongst these were those who forged hadith about the prophet. "Do not hold prayers for any of them if they die, and do not stand by their graves: they disbelieved in Allah and His Messenger and died rebellious. Do not let their possessions and their children impress you: Allah means to punish them through these in this world, and that their souls should depart while they disbelieve." Sura 9/84-85 The second type was more belligerent, and more dangerous. Allah has promised this type of hypocrite that He will punish him twice; once in this world and once in the hereafter, and he will suffer awesome punishment.

This very dangerous type was unknown to the Prophet Muhammad.

Thus Allah says: Among the Arabs around you, there are hypocrites. Also, among the city dwellers, there are those who are accustomed to hypocrisy. You do not know them, but we
83 | P a g e

know them. We will double the retribution for them, then they end up committed to a terrible retribution." Sura 9/101

Regarding the known hypocrites, the Allah says:

They swear by Allah that they never said it, although they have uttered the word of disbelief; they have disbelieved after becoming submitters Allah decrees a single punishment for them if they dont repent, If they repent, it would be best for them. But if they turn away, Allah will commit them to painful retribution in this life and in the Hereafter" Sura 9/74 Its impossible for us to name these individuals especially seeing that Allah didnt even tell the prophet who they were, we can still discover their Hadith/Narrations which manifest their hatred for the Prophet Muhammad. Thus these Hadith were handed down through the generations until they eventually found their way to being composed in what have now become known as the Sahih books. And those who collated the hadith, and sifted through and established their so called chains of narration, all agreed upon the fact that the friends of the Prophet Muhammad were all the same.

"They want to yu'fi (extinguish) nra (the light) of Allah bi-afwhihim (with their mouths) in other words with (Hadith)
Allah says, "Indeed, the dna (deen) inda (near) Allah is'lmu (is Islam). And those who were given the Scripture did not differ except after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And whoever disbelieves in the verses of Allah , then indeed, Allah is swift in [taking] account." Sura 3/19 Allah says, "...This day akmaltu (I have perfected) for you your dnakum (manner of conduct) awa-atmamtu (and I have completed) ni'mat (My favor) upon you and have approved for you Islam as dnan (deen)..." Sura 5/6 "And whoever desires other than Islam as dnan (manner of conduct) - never will it be accepted from him, and he, in the Hereafter, will be among the losers." Sura 3/85

84 | P a g e

"So whoever yahdiyahu (Allah wants to guide) - yashra (He expands) adrahu (his breast) to Islam; and whoever He wants to misguide - He makes his breast ayyiqan (tight) arajan (and constricted) as though he were climbing into the sky. Thus does Allah place defilement upon those who do not believe. And this iru (is the path) of your Lord, leading mus'taqman (straight). We have detailed the verses for a people who remember." Sura 6/125-126 "This day akmaltu (I have perfected) for you your dinakum (manner of conduct) waatmamtu (and I have completed) ni'mat (My favor) upon you waratu (and I have approved) for you Islam as dnan (way)." Sura 5/3 Let's examine: Allah says, "...This day akmaltu (I have perfected) for you" The Arabic word akmaltu means to complete, in total, in all, perfect achieved. " your dnakum (manner of conduct)" dnakum means obedience, submissiveness, servility, system, custom, habit, business, a way, course, manner of conduct. So Allah says literally that in totall and in all He has perfected our dinikum (deen) which means system, manner of conduct. "awa-atmamtu (and I have completed)" wa-atmamtu means to be entire, full, whole, blossom, full-grown, complete, perfect, fulfilled, accomplish. Strong, firm, hard. " ni'mat (My favor) upon you" ni'mat means to lead an easy life, enjoy the comforts and conveniences of life, be joyful, comforts, delights. in'aam - beneficence, favour to a person, gifted (with speech/talent/reason etc). "and have approved for you is'lma (Islam)" is'lma means safety, security, freedom, immunity, to escape, salutation, greeting, peace, deliver, acknowledge, pay in advance, submit, sincerity, humility, submission, conformance, obedience, resign, quit, relinquish, to be in sound condition, well without blemish, gentle, tender, soft, elegant. "as dnan (way)..."
85 | P a g e

means obedience, submissiveness, servility, system, custom, habit, business, a way, course, manner of conduct. Yet, the disbelievers want to extinguish the light of Allah. "They want to yu'fi (extinguish) nra (the light) of Allah bi-afwhihim (with their mouths), but Allah refuses except yutimma (to perfect) His light, although the disbelievers dislike it." Sura 9/32 bi-afwhihim comes from the Arabic root f ww h ( ) which means to pronounce a latter or word, a discourse. famun/fumun (pl. afwah) - mouth.

What is the light of Allah?

"Indeed there has come to you from Allah nrun (a Light) wakitbun (and a Book) mubnun (Clear). With it Allah guides whoever follows His good pleasure to the ways of peace and brings them out from the darkness into the light by His permission: He guides them onto a straight path." Sura 5/15-16 "Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered prophet, whom they find written in what they have of the Torah and the Gospel, who enjoins upon them what is right and forbids them what is wrong and makes lawful for them the good things and prohibits for them the evil and relieves them of their burden and the shackles which were upon them. So they (who have believed in him, honored him, supported him and followed nra (the light) which unzila (was sent down) with him - it is those who will be the successful." Sura 7/157

Again, reflect, Allah says, "and followed nra (the light) which unzila (was sent down) with him - it is those who will be the successful."

What was sent down to the Prophet Muhammad?

Allah says, "Say, "What thing is greatest in testimony?" Say, " Allah is witness between me and you. And qur'nu (this Qur'an) waiya (was revealed) to me that I may warn you thereby and whomever it reaches. Do you [truly] testify that with Allah there are other deities?"

86 | P a g e

Say, "I will not testify [with you]." Say, "Indeed, He is but one Allah, and indeed, I am ree of what you associate [with Him]." Sura 6/19 "We relate to you, the best of stories in what awayn (We have revealed) to you of qur'na (this Qur'an) although you were, before it, among the unaware." Sura 12/3 "anzaln (We have sent down) to you kitban (a Book) in which is your mention. Then will you not reason?" Sura 21/10 Allah says it clearly that the light that the disbelievers want to extinguish is the Qur'an that was sent down to the Prophet Muhammad bi-afwhihim with their mouths "a discourse" so now what is a discourse? Allah says, "These are the signs of Allah We recount to thee with The Truth. Then, in which adthin (Hadith), after Allah and His ayats, will they believe?" Sura 45/6 "Then in what adthin (hadith) after the Qur'an will they believe?" Sura 77/50 "Do they not look into the realm of the heavens and the earth and everything that Allah has created and think that perhaps their appointed time has come near? So in what adthin (statement) hereafter will they believe?" Sura 7/185 Remember what Hadith means one of the meaning of Hadith means 'a discourse' adthin comes from the Arabic word h dl th ( ) something new/recent, it (a thing) came into existence, began to be, originated, had a beginning, existed newly for the first time, to relate discourse, story/report/narration/statement/tale/speech. Lane: "hadathu - a novelty or new thing, an innovation, a thing not known before, and particularly relating to El-Islam (i.e. to matters of religious doctrines or practices or the like)" So when Allah says: "They want to yu'fi (extinguish) nra (the light) of Allah bi-afwhihim (with their mouths), but Allah refuses except yutimma (to perfect) His light, although the disbelievers dislike it." 9/32 "bi-afwhihim (with their mouths)"

87 | P a g e

bi-afwhihim comes from the Arabic root f ww h ( ) which means to pronounce a latter or word, a discourse. famun/fumun (pl. afwah) - mouth. Allah is saying in which adthin (hadith) will you believe after the Qur'an. In other words in which 'discourse' 'statements' 'speech' 'narrations' 'sayings' will you believe after the Qur'an. Allah knew that the disbelievers would try to extinguish Allah's light in which they have failed and will continue to fail miserably. Allah then puts fourth the ultimate challenge by telling them to produce a Hadith like the Qur'an. Moreover, they didnt look into the body of the text of hadith to see whether it conforms with the Qur'an or not. And if we wanted to consider the Qur'an as the only source of the Prophets sunna, and the system and law of Allah, then we must put the oral narrations of hadith in their rightful place, and that is:

A record of human history of the Prophet Muhammad and the Muslims, and a record of their culture and ideology; whether this so happens to agree with the Qur'an or not. Or rather some of the Hadith are false or not it is what it is, hearsay, guesswork, conjecture.
Thus, it is most upsetting that among these Hadith/Narrations there should be found slander about Prophet Muhammad which only serves to vilify his biography, for he had spread the word of faith, and established both a nation and a state, and who also had a tremendous effect on the history of the world. Think about it, no matter how low a person becomes, he will still refuse that the secrets of his household should be exposed to people, or even that the sexual relationship of his father with his mother is made public. Yet, from what I overstand it is a part of Arab culture that they shy away from revealing the names of the women in their families, but at the same time, the followers of Hadith dont see anything wrong in believing in the hadith of Sahih Bukhari and company which slander the prophets household and his women, and vilify his honour and his wives. And which describe them as being naked without clothes before our minds yet some of us believe in Hadith attributing them to the Prophet Muhammad. Allah in the Quran has clearly, precisely and strategically used the Arabic word hadith right in the Quran and most Muslims are unaware of this. The so-called
88 | P a g e

scholars among the Sunni & Shiite sect have concealed this by mistranslating theArabic word hadith. They all have used countless English words/different English words to use as a translation for hadith to distort the true context of the Quran in order to conceal the fact that Allah has condemned HADITH by name. This is what Hadith looks like in the Quran in the Arabic:

This Arabic word here is Hadith and its pronounced as Hadith, which is obvious when looking at each Arabic letter. This is important to know in order for anybody to see that Allah did in fact mention the Arabic word hadith by NAME right in the Quran if Muslims who follow Hadith outside of the Quran can see this for themselves, then and only then would they will be able see through the MATRIX of Hadith and see the game of deception that has been played upon all of us by these so-called sheiks, religious leaders, Imams, Ulama, etc. through their wicked game of TRANSLATION. The Arabic in the Quran is right and exact but the Shayatin (Devils) among Al Jinn and Al Ins have been deceiving the masses of sincere Muslims by mistranslating the Quran in order to support their sectarian school of thought Sunnis and Shites and the subgroups that came from them in which Prophet Muhammad knew nothing about nor was a part of because this division and distortion came about or into existence after the death of Prophet Muhammad. The Hadith compiled by Bukhari, Tirmidhi, Muslim, just to name a few are said to be also divine scriptures revealed by Allah for us to believe in or follow in Islam yet this is not proven throughout the entire Quran. These Sunnis and Shites cant find or locate not one single ayat in the Quran to prove this and they purposely evaded dealing with the ayats in the Quran that do mention hadith.

89 | P a g e

"Allah has revealed ahsana (the best) Hadith (speech) , a book conformable in its various parts, repeating, whereat do shudder the skins of those who fear their Sustainer, then their skins and their hearts become pliant to the remembrance of Allah; this is Allah's guidance, He guides with it whom He pleases; and (as for) him whom Allah leaves to err, there is no guide for him." Sura 39/23 In Sura 39/23 Allah used the Arabic word Hadith for the Quran. Allah says that He has revealed herein The Best Hadith. Allah makes it very clear as to which hadith to follow and its only the Quran and nothing else.

Allah tells us in Sura 12/111 that the Quran is is not a fabricated Hadith. As we can see in Sura 39/23; 12/111) the Arabic word hadith is used for the Quran by Allah and not those fabricated tales or hadith compiled by the Persian Bukhari and company which came after the Quran. Allah tells us that the Quran is the Best Hadith and that the Quran is not a fabricated Hadith, so Allah made it very clear as to which hadith we are supposed to follow and that is only the Quran and not those fabricated books compiled by the Persian Bukhari and company came after the Quran.

90 | P a g e

Allah is clearly telling us what hadith you are going to believe in After the revelation of the Quran.:

Main Books of Narration (Hadith): Shia

1) al-Kulaini (d. 328 or 329), 2) Ibn Babuwayh (d. 381), 3) Jaafar Muhammad al-Tusi (d. 411) and 4) al-Murtada (d. 436)

Sunni...
1) Bukhari (d. 256/870), 2) Muslim (d. 261/875), 3) Abu Daud (d. 275/888), 4) Tirmidhi (d. 279/892), 5) Ibn Maja (d. 273/886), and 6) al-Nasa'i (d. 303/915) Prophet Muhammad is just one man and these sects between the Sunnis and Shites have created division in Islam by fabricating their own set of hadith after the death of Muhammad. These hadith books came after the revelation of the Quran and not before so they are condemned by Allah right in the Quran. Any hadith that came after the revelation of the Quran are condemned by Allah and since this is a fact Muslims are not supposed to follow nor believe in them despite what your so-called sheiks, religious leaders, Imams, Ulama tell us, they are not Allah and they are not Divine and neither are they Messengers sent from Allah. So they can be question and should be questioned.

91 | P a g e

Allah says:

Or for them shuraku (are partners) shara (who have ordained) for them of the deen what not Allah has not given permission of it . And if not for a word decisive, surely it would have judged between them. And indeed the wrongdoers for them is a punishment painful. Sura 42/21

Is there any who guides to the truth we have to ask can Hadith and Sunnah books that came over 200 years later after the death of the Prophet Muhammad guide to the truth:
Allah says:

92 | P a g e

Say, Are there of shurakikum (your partners) any who yahd (guides) to aqi (the truth)? Say, Allah yahd (guides) lilaqqi (to the truth). So is He (Allah) who yahd (guides) to aqi (the truth) more worthy that yuttabaa (he should be followed) or he (Prophet Muhammad) who guides not ill (unless) yuhd (he is guided)? Then what is [wrong] with you how do takumna (you judge)? Sura 10/35

They invoke others than Allah:

"Lo! is it not unto Allah that belongeth whosoever is in the heavens and whosoever is in the earth? And not yattabiu (follow) those who invoke other than Allah, shuraka (partners) not yattabina (they follow) but ana (the assumption/conjecture), and they do but yakhruna (guess)." Sura 10/66

Do not follow allies:

This scripture has been revealed to you - you shall not harbor doubt about it in your heart - that you may warn with it, and to provide a reminder for the believers. Follow what is revealed to you from your Lord; do not follow awliya (any allies) besides Him. Rarely do you take heed." Sura 7/2-3 To break it down further, the Arabic word Hadith means new. It is used as opposed to qadim which means old. From this followed this the use of the term for a piece of news, a tale, a story, or a report be it historical or legendary, true or false, relating to the present or to the past immediate or remote. In this sense the word has been used by the pre-Islamic poets, and in the Quran and in the so called Traditions of the Prophet. The story tellers also were called Huddath. Since the coming of Ahlul Hadith, People of Hadith they have called the reports with regard to Prophet Muhammads sayings and doings the Best Hadith, and by and by its use was confined to the reports of the Prophets words and deeds only. Now the word "Hadith" in general means "Saying" it`s a noun and the verb from it is "Tahadath" so if I said something to Keven, Keven will say "Khidr Amri Yisrael Tahadath" or "Khidr Amari Yisrael said", vice versa if Keven said something I will say in Arabic "Keven Tahadath", so the word "Hadith" can mean the saying of anybody. Hence, the modern grammatical form of "Tahadath" is not in the Quraan, let me repeat, the modern grammatical form of "Tahadath" is not in the Quraan. It is very clear that the Arabic word "Hadith" is in the Quran and the context Allah has used it. Allah did not leave any gaps to guess when it came down to whether or not we are to believe in hadith.
93 | P a g e

Some say "Hadith" can mean the saying of anybody. Again, literally hadith means tale, gossip, words of man, tradition and can also add sayings in the definition and thats fine because still it does not bring any validation to believe and follow the Persian Imam books of Hadith by Sahih Bukhari and company.

Allah makes it very clear what Hadith AFTER the Qur'an will you believe:
"In which Hadith, then, after it, will they believe?" Sura 77/50

"Do they not consider the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and whatever things Allah has created, and that may be their doom shall have drawn nigh; In which Hadith would they then believe in after this?" Sura 7/185 "These are the Ayat of Allah which We recite to you with truth; then in which Hadith would they believe after Allah and His Ayat? Woe to every sinful liar, Who hears the Ayat of Allah recited to him, then persists proudly as though he had not heard them; so announce to him a painful punishment. And when he comes to know of any of Our Ayat, he takes it for a jest; these it is that shall have abasing chastisement." Sura 45/6-9

Who is more truthful in giving Hadith other than Allah:

"And who is more true in giving Hadith than Allah?" Sura 4/87

There are among those who purchase vain Hadith that leads people astray:
"And of men is he who purchases Lahwal Hadith (vain narrations) to lead astray from Allah's path without knowledge, and to take it for a mockery; these shall have an abasing chastisement. And when Our Ayat (verses) are recited to him, he turns back proudly, as if he had not heard them, as though in his ears were a heaviness, therefore announce to him a painful chastisement." Sura 31/6-7

Allah told the believers not to sit around the Prophet Muhammad waiting for Hadith:
O you who believe! do not enter the houses of the Prophet unless permission is given to you for a meal, not waiting for its cooking being finished-- but when you are invited, enter, and when you have taken the food, then disperse-- not seeking liadthin
94 | P a g e

(lengthy conversations); surely this gives the Prophet trouble, but he forbears from you, and Allah does not forbear from the truth. And when you ask of them any goods, ask of them from behind a curtain; this is purer for your hearts and (for) their hearts; and it does not behove you that you should give trouble to the Messenger of Allah, nor that you should marry his wives after him ever; surely this is grievous in the sight of Allah. Sura 33/53

In Surah At-Tur, the unbelievers are challenged:

"Or do they say: He has forged it. Nay! they do not believe. Then let them bring a Hadith similar to it if they are truthful." Sura 52/33-34 As for the enemy of Allah and His messenger who has allied himself with Bukhari try to meet Allah's CHALLENGE of producing an Hadith like the Qur'an they and the Sahih writers/compilers and those who follow them will rush to the aid of Sahih Bukhari for he believes that Bukhari cannot make a mistake, and he believes that Bukhari is above the level of the prophets even they made mistakes and the revelation came down rebuking them at times and pointing out to them their blunders. Due to the fact that this enemy of Allah rushes to Bukharis defense, and that they cannot raise their voice in defense of the Prophet Muhammad, their only recourse is to attack the believers who believes solely on Allah's, the Best Hadith, the Qur'an. Yet they send curses and accusations on the believers of Qur'an alone to distract people from the issue at hand, thus providing them with an escape for themselves and their god, Bukhari and company. But can they escape from the punishment of the Hereafter? If we wanted to know the extent of the damage which they inflict on the Prophet Muhammad while being silent to Bukhari and his ilk, we must read how Allah defended the reputation of the prophet in the Qur'an. Some childish people used to think that they could enter the Prophet Muhammads house without asking him permission, but the prophet felt awkward asking them to leave because he was too shy, so Allah said.. "O you who believe, do not enter the prophets homes unless you are given permission to eat, nor shall you force such an invitation in any manner. If you are invited, you may enter. When you finish eating, you shall leave; do not engage him in liadthin (lengthy conversations). This used to hurt the prophet, and he was too shy to tell you. But Allah does not shy away from the truth. If you have to ask his wives for something,
95 | P a g e

ask them from behind a barrier. This is purer for your hearts and their hearts. You are not to hurt the messenger of Allah. You shall not marry his wives after him, for this would be a gross offense in the sight of Allah". Sura 33/53 Those in whose hearts is a disease, not only break into the Prophet Muhammads house without permission, but they also break into his bedroom with their pens and poisonous Hadith/Narrations. In doing so, they are going against the instructions of Allah and they are harming, opposing, and persecuting the Prophet Muhammad by divulging the so called secrets that he shared with his wives. They recorded these Hadith/Narrations as suited them best in order to desecrate such an honourable personality. The believer supports the Prophet Muhammad, and maintains a good relationship with him by holding on to what the Prophet Muhammad held onto, the Qur'an alone and also defending the Prophet Muhammad from those false rumours/lies/assumptions which have crept into the deen.

Some of us, without knowing, repeat the common phrase:

O Lord, support the prophet But at the same time there are others who hold on to the belief of those hadith which desecrate the Prophet Muhammad's life story. We know the Hadith were not revealed to the Prophet Muhammad it was the Qur'an yet there are those who follow tradition and Allah makes it very clear when told to them to follow what was revealed they will follow what their fathers followed: "They are but names which ye have named, ye and your fathers, for which not anzala lahu (has Allah sent down) bih (for it) min (any) sul'nin (authority). in (not) yattabina (they follow) illa (except) ana (the assumption/guess) and that which themselves desire. walaqad (And certainly) jahum (has come to them) from rabbihimu (their Lord) hud (the guidance) or is for man what he wishes? But for Allah is the last and the first." Sura 53/23-25 "And they have thereof no knowledge. yattabina (They follow) not except ana (assumption), and indeed, ana (the assumption) avails not against aqi (the truth) at all. So turn away from him who turns away from dhik'rin (Our Reminder) and hot he desires except ayata (the life) dun'y (of this world)." Sura 53/28

96 | P a g e

Those hypocrites/enemies of Allah and His Messenger Allah tells us they will be punished, they only assume about Allah of an evil nature:
"And [that] He may punish the hypocrite men and hypocrite women, and the polytheist men and polytheist women - those nna (who assume) about Allah anna (an assumption) of evil nature. Upon them is a misfortune of evil nature; and Allah has become angry with them and has cursed them and prepared for them Hell, and evil it is as a destination." Sura 48/6 "Lo! is it not unto Allah that belongeth whosoever is in the heavens and whosoever is in the earth? And not yattabiu (follow) those who invoke other than Allah, shuraka (partners) not yattabina (they follow) but ana (the assumption/conjecture), and they do but yakhruna (guess)." Sura 10/66 These followers of Hadith has made Hadith shuraka (partners) with Allah because they follow zana (the assumption/conjecture) which is only but guesswork: "Lo! is it not unto Allah that belongeth whosoever is in the heavens and whosoever is in the earth? And not yattabiu (follow) those who invoke other than Allah, shuraka (partners) not yattabina (they follow) but ana (the assumption/conjecture), and they do but yakhruna (guess)." 10/66

The Majority of Muslims follow Hadith/Sunnah books and pays lip service to Qur'an. Allah warns us not to follow majority:
"And if you obey akthara (most) of those upon the earth, yuillka (they will mislead you) from sabli lahi (the way of Allah). Not yattabina (they follow) not except ana (the assumption), and not they do except yakhruna (guess)." Sura 6/116 "Those who associated with Allah will say, "If Allah had willed, we would not have associated anything and neither would our fathers, nor would we have prohibited anything." Likewise did those before deny until they tasted Our punishment. qul (Say), "hal (is) indakum (with you) min (of) il'min (any knowledge) fatukh'rijhu (then produce it) lan (for us)? in (Not) tattabina (you follow) illa (except) ana (the assumption), and not you do but takhruna (guess).qul (Say) falillahi (with Allah) ujatu (is the argument) blighatu (the conclusive). And if He willed surely He would have guided you all." Sura 6/148-49

Other narrations, Bukhari adds some sexual insinuations to the story:

97 | P a g e

The messenger of Allah was once bewitched to the extent that he used to think that he approached women when in fact he did not. Sufyan added This is the worst type of sorcery if that is what he used to do. The prophet said O Aisha, I felt as if God has given me the answer to the question I asked him. Two men approached me, one of them sat next to my head, the other next to my feet, this hadith continues till Aisha asks Did you not seek to cure your ailment? He replied God has already cured me. I didnt want to disturb the people with evil. The clear sexual insinuations in this hadith are the words he used to think that he approached women when in fact he did not, and this is the worst type of sorcery, also, when Aisha said Did you not seek to cure your ailment? Sahih al-Bukhari; volume 7/pages 176, 178; volume 8/page 103. Are you angry yet? I mean honestly to claim that the Prophet Muhammad was bewitched or that he underwent sorcery, is a blasphemy against the deen, as well as doubting the message. Even before Bukharis second source came along, the polytheists of Mecca had claimed that the prophet was insane: And they said, How come this messenger eats the food and walks in the markets? If only an angel could come down with him, to serve with him as a preacher! Or, If only a treasure could be given to him! Or, If only he could possess an orchard from which he eats! The transgressors also said, You are following a bewitched man.

The Qur'an on the polytheists:

We are fully aware of what they hear, when they listen to you, and when they conspire secretly - the disbelievers say, You are following a crazy man. Sura 17/47 Allah also commentates on these claims and says the same thing as in Surah 25/9 "See what they think you are like! They have gone astray and cannot find the right way." Note how they describe you, and how this causes them to stray off the path." Sura 17/48

Here we have the polytheists accusations of the prophets alleged insanity recurs:
98 | P a g e

Note how they describe you, and how this causes them to stray off the path. This was a repeated as a reply to the accusations of sorcery against the Prophet Muhammad even after his death, including those accusations made by the so-called secondary source thus called Hadith Did not Allah promise to protect the Prophet Muhammad, his Messenger so that he could deliver the message just as he received it, the Allah says O you messenger, deliver what is revealed to you from your Lord - until you do, you have not delivered His message and Allah will protect you from the people" Sura 5/67 Thus, how is it possible that Allah serves as a protector to the prophet whilst that alleged Jew practiced sorcery on him?

It is stated in Sahih Al-Bukhari:

It has been narrated to me by Ishaq bin Ibraheem, as Ruh bin Ubadah told us, from Auf who was informed by Al Hasan, Muhammad and Khilas, that he narrated from Abu Hurraira who said that, Allahs Apostle said, (The Prophet) Moses was a shy person and used to cover his body completely because of his extensive shyness. One of the children of Israel hurt him by saying, He covers his body in this way only because of some defect in his skin, either leprosy or scrotal hernia, or he has some other defect. Allah wished to clear Moses of what they said about him, so one day while Moses was in seclusion, he took off his clothes and put them on a stone and started taking a bath. When he had finished the bath, he moved towards his clothes so as to take them, but the stone took his clothes and fled; Moses picked up his stick and ran after the stone saying, O stone! Give me my garment! Till he reached a group of Bani Israel who saw him naked then, and found him the best of what Allah had created, and Allah cleared him of what they had accused him of. The stone stopped there and Moses took and put his garment on and started hitting the stone with his stick. By Allah, the stone still has some traces of the hitting, three, four or five marks. This was what Allah refers to in His Saying: O you who believe! Be you not like those Who annoyed Moses, But Allah proved his innocence of that which they alleged, And he was honorable In Allahs Sight.33/69- (Sahih Bukhari Volume 4 Hadith 616) Any one reading this Hadith above are urged to carefully examine the above context in which a mighty messenger of Allah is humiliated in front of his people, and and then

99 | P a g e

carefully study the Quranic repetitions pertaining to the subject and see does Hadith truly explain the Qur'an. The guile of the people who forged this tradition should also be observed, as to how they absolved themselves from this fictitious tale, by cleverly attributing it to the person of the messenger of Allah thus taking advantage of the immense love and respect that the Muslims have for the Prophet Muhammad. While the Quran has informed us that the messenger imparted knowledge of Allahs Book by giving its explanation as occurred within the passages of the Book itself, can we consider the story given in the above traditio/ Hadith to truly come from the Prophet Muhammad? Also consider the Chapter of Menstruation in Sahih al-Bukhari, one is taken aback upon reading strange narrations under an even stranger title, The Chapter of Sleeping with a Menstruating Woman. One of which is a hadith attributed to Aisha: The prophet and I were washing in the same tub next to each other, then he would instruct me to put on the izaar, then he would have intercourse with me. [In another instance] he would take his head out while he was secluded in the mosque, then I would wash his head while I was menstruating. Another narration of Aishas says If any one of us was menstruating and the prophet wanted to sleep with her, he would order her to put on the izaar whilst she was menstruating, then he would sleep with her. She (reportedly) adds Which of you can control his sexual drive like the prophet controlled his sexual drive? Furthermore, the hadith of Maymunah states If the prophet of God wanted to sleep with one of his women, he would instruct her to put on the izaar while she was menstruating. With these narrations, Bukhari makes the Mothers of the Believers (i.e., the wives of the prophet) witnesses to the fact that the Prophet Muhammad used to sleep with them while they were menstruating. Bukhari then falsely attributes to Aisha a knowledge of the prophets sexual power, for he reports her to have said Which of you can control his sexual drive like the prophet controlled his sexual drive? In another narration, Bukhari makes out that the Prophet Muhammad used to stay in womens company and never used to leave them even when they were menstruating. Bukhari attributes to Um Salama the following hadith:

100 | P a g e

Whilst I was lying down with the prophet in the woods, I began to menstruate, so I got changed and I took the clothes of my menstruation. He then said Are you menstruating? I said Yes. He then called me so I lied next to him in the woods. It is as if the Prophet Muhammad had no responsibilities to be concerned about, or he had nothing to do except lie in the woods with his wives even while they were menstruating. We seek refuge in Allah from this fabrication! Bukhari claims that Aisha said The prophet used to lie on my lap while I was menstruating and he would read the Quran. In another more detailed narration from Anas, he says The prophet used to visit his women in one hour of the day and the night, and there were eleven of them. The narrator said I said to Anas Did he have the energy?, [Anas] said We used to say that he had the power of thirty [men]. ==> Sahih al-Bukhari; volume 7/page 4; and volume 1/page 76, the print of Dar al-Shab Publishers. (This is the print which will be used for the remainder of this study.) One of which is a hadith attributed to Aisha: The prophet and I were washing in the same tub next to each other, then he would instruct me to put on the izaar then he would have intercourse with me. [In another instance] he would take his head out while he was secluded in the mosque, then I would wash his head while I was menstruating. Another narration of Aishas says If any one of us was menstruating and the prophet wanted to sleep with her, he would order her to put on the izaar whilst she was menstruating, then he would sleep with her. She (reportedly) adds Which of you can control his sexual drive like the prophet controlled his sexual drive? Furthermore, the hadith of Maymunah states If the prophet of God wanted to sleep with one of his women, he would instruct her to put on the izaar while she was menstruating. See The Chapter of Menstruation in Sahih al-Bukhari; volume 1/page 79. See Sahih al-Bukhari; volume 7/page 48. Sahih al-Bukhari; volume 8/page 78. See Sahih al-Bukhari; volume 7/page 53...etc. The accursed devil laughs much at us! Note the one whose evil work is adorned in his eyes, until he thinks that it is righteous. Allah thus sends astray whoever wills, and He guides whoever wills. Therefore, do not grieve over them. Allah is fully aware of everything they do." 35:8

The proponents of the secondary sources called Hadith acknowledge that they attribute hadith to the Prophet Muhammad even though the prophet himself prohibited the writing down of such hadith. They also acknowledge that the Golden Age of Islam took place before the collation of those hadith which were collated much later, at a time of much political turmoil, religious division, and intellectual confusion. Hadith are given levels of soundness by their proponents. Some are deemed mutawaatir, which means that they are extremely sound regardless the number of these hadith are counted as less than ten, and thats being optimistic. Then theres the classification of aahaad, this is the biggest section of hadith. This class is further sub-divided into groups, from the level of complete reliability to forgery. This classification is laughable, for when one attributes a saying to someone, there are only two possibilities: 1) Either the person in question said it, or 2) The person did not say it. So if he did say it, then it can be attributed to him 100%. And if he didnt say it, then it is a fabrication, and therefore it is a lie 100%.

There is no in-between.
For example, the following famous hadith: O Fatima, work! For I cannot avail you anything against Allah.. Either the prophet actually said this, in which case its the prophets saying 100%. Or, the prophet didnt say it, in which case, its a lie 100%; there is no gray area. But how can we ever verify this, seeing that it was orally transmitted for over two hundred years before it was written down? Especially seeing that the transcriber did not live in the time of the Prophet Muhammad, nor did he live in the time of the generation who came after the Prophet Muhammad. They make tales of the ancients books called Hadith to be the sources that supports the Qur'an yet this is laughable. Here is conjuecture classification which groups hadith according to veracity; thus, a hadith could be:

102 | P a g e

1) 70% true, or 2) 50% true, or 3) 13% true This present the latter case, it would be deemed daeef/weak. Such a classification will cause a sad person to laugh! Either the prophet said something, in which case it will be 100% true, or he didnt say it, in which case it would be 100% false! However, what the Prophet Muhammad really did say which is the biggest miracle is the word of Allah, the Qur'an. This is the real hadith which we should believe in alone, and with which we should live our lives alone. "Allah has revealed ahsana (the best) Hadith (speech) , a book conformable in its various parts, repeating, whereat do shudder the skins of those who fear their Sustainer, then their skins and their hearts become pliant to the remembrance of Allah; this is Allah's guidance, He guides with it whom He pleases; and (as for) him whom Allah leaves to err, there is no guide for him." Sura 39/23 The One who brought down the book will take us to account on the Day of Judgment according to what we find therein. As for those people who authored the secondary sources called Hadith, they are humans like us who will stand with us before Allah on the Day of Resurrection. With the fear of that Day in mind, as a brother and friend to all of you who follow Hadith and as a reminder to us who solely follow Qur'an alone we have to seriously think about what we have debated in our groups, all the while, imploring Allah with sincerity to guide usto the straight path, leaving behind all previous whims and fancies. "But nay! I bring as evidence the location of stars; And most surely it is a very great oath if you only knew; Most surely it is an honored Quran, In a book that is protected. None shall have access to it (its meaning) save those who have purified themselves from wrong concepts and ideologies. A revelation by the Sustainer of the worlds. Do you then hold this Hadith in contempt? And to give (it) the lie you make your means of subsistence." Sura 56/75-82 "So leave Me and him who rejects this Hadith; We will overtake them by degrees, from whence they perceive not." Sura 68/44

103 | P a g e

"Do they not consider the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and whatever things Allah has created, and that may be their doom shall have drawn nigh; In which Hadith would they then believe in after this?" Sura 7/185

Why did Allah use Hadith in the Qur'an instead of other Arabic words that mean the same thing as Hadith.

There are several Arabic words that means:

1) Aqwal means sayings 2) Akhbar means narrations 3) Hikam means Aphorisms 4) Nataq means Speech

In the Qur'an amazingly Allah specifically used this Arabic word hadith to condemn hadith by the very same name the enemies of Islam used to call the books written & compiled by the Sunnis;

The Sunni compilers such as:

1) Bukhari (d. 256/870), 2) Muslim (d. 261/875), 3) Abu Daud (d. 275/888), 4) Tirmidhi (d. 279/892), 5) Ibn Maja (d. 273/886), and 6) al-Nasa'i (d. 303/915)

And the Shites compilers such as:

1) al-Kulaini (d. 328 or 329), 2) Ibn Babuwayh (d. 381), 3) Jaafar Muhammad al-Tusi (d. 411) and 4) al-Murtada (d. 436)
104 | P a g e

Most of these hadith compilers came around 250 years or more after the death of Prophet Muhammad. Allah knew this would happen, Allah is The All Seeing, The All Knowing, and so Allah has condemned these hadith by name before the enemy of Islam fabricating them. This is fulfillment of prophecy right in the Holy Quran, According to Allah the people who have written their own hadith will have much to answer. When they write their own unauthorized hadith they will be punished from directions which they will never perceive.

In which Hadith would they believe after this (Quran) this is the question now does the Quran instruct us to refer to Nataq-un-Nabi (Speech of Nabi)/Hadith for the explanation of the Quran?
Allah says: "l tuarrik bihi (Not move with it) lisnaka (your tongue) litajala (to hasten) bihi (with it) inna (Indeed) alayn (Upon Us) jamahu (is its collection) waqur'nahu (and its recitation.) fa-idh (And when) qaranhu (We have recited it) fa-ittabi (then follow) qur'nahu (its recitation) thumma (Then) inna (Indeed) alayn (Upon Us) baynahu (is its explanation)." Sura 75/16-19 This is explained throughout the Quran that it is Allah who provides the Tafsir of His Book by which is called the Tasreef ul Ayat, that is, by repetition of verses. If we took the time to observe the manner of Tafsir of Quranic we would clearly see that the subjects that is given by Allah in His Book itself and which was consequently taught by the messenger to his was through the repeated ayats throughout the Quran. "See how We repeat the verses that they may understand." Sura 6/65 "See how We repeat the verses, yet they turn away (from the truth rendered by recurrence of Ayat." Sura 6/46 The Most Merciful allama (He taught) qur'na (the Quran) Sura 55/1-2 Allah warned Prophet Muhammad not to change the wahyun (revelation) or invent sayings since Allah would punish him: And when Our signs tut'l (are recited) to them, ytun (Our signs), bayyintin (as clear proofs) those who look not to encounter Us say, 'Bring a Quran other than this, or baddil'hu (change it).' Say: 'It is not for me that ubaddilahu (I change it) of my own

accord. attabiu (I follow) except what y (is revealed) to me. Truly I fear, if I should rebel against my Lord, the chastisement of a dreadful day.' Sura 10/15 innahu (Indeed it is) laqawlu (surely the word) raslin (of a Messenger) karmin (noble) . And not biqawli (is the word) of a poet; little do you believe! And not biqawli (it is the word) of a soothsayer; little do you remember. tanzlun (It is a revelation) from the Lord lamna (of all the worlds). And if taqawwala (He had fabricated/invented) alayn (against Us) some aqwli (sayings) la-akhadhn (Certainly We would have seized) him by the right hand, then certainly We would have cut off from him watna (the aorta). And there is no one of you who could prevent Us from him. Sura 69/40-47 The Quran is the only book for the Muslim. There is no god worthy of worship except Allah, and there is no other book that was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad that is a clear guidance for humanity as a whole except the Quran, the Book of Allah. It should be noticed that the honourable verses which concern Allahs being sufficient as a Lord, and the Quran as a book, all take the form of questioning in the negative, that is, negating those who take gods with Allah and books such as Hadith of Sahih Bukhari/Muslim and company alongside the Book of Allah. Allah made clear that the Quran is enough, and that it is a mercy and reminder for the believers, Is it not enough of a miracle that we sent down to you this book, being recited to them? This is indeed a mercy and a reminder for people who believe. (29:51). It is from Allahs mercy on us that He imposed on us one book, which is easy to understand, its protected from edition, and He made it plain and clear. It has a beginning and an end, and it doesnt ask us to refer to other books authored by humans who are just like us, and who are capable of making mistakes, forgetfulness, susceptible to prejudice, and even disobey these tales of the ancient books called Hadith. Moreover, these books contradict one another, and there is neither a beginning to their books nor an end. "Let them then produce a truth". Sura 52:34 "hadith" like this (Quran), if indeed they speak the

Let us put this to rest once and for all the chopping block.

The Qur'an, following Qur'an ALONE can eliminate the division and bida (man-made innovations) that crept into Islam. The Sunni and Shia Muslim doctrine is based on blind faith when it comes to those so-called hadith because they do not have one shred of evidence to back up their sectarian belief of using them inside the Qur'an. Sunni and Shia Muslim are so blind to their own argument they dont even realize that they have to provide proof for the assumption in their question before they can even think of asking such a question. Their question is like the following:

Are there discrepancies / errors / weaknesses in Hadith rather they are authentic or not?
As we can clearly see, the question has to be separated. So I elaborate to get rid of baseless assumptions: 1) Is the Qur'an reliable or not? Yes. 2) Are the sources for Ahadith reliable or not? No. Only one is protected by Allah, and that is Al Qur'an. Yet, they say both are identical and to say both are identical in terms of reliability is to go against what Allah states, and to be in denial. Its clear that the Qur'an was revealed and written down while the Prophet Muhammad was alive. For one Allah do tell us that He revealed the Qur'an and its a guidance for all of humanity. To the Sunnis and Shia Allah never told us to believe in hadiths or that they are guidance. There is obvious a missing link because no one has ever produced a verse to tell us this about the hadith of the Sunnis and Shia. Yet, Allah tells us over and over again that the Qur'an is from Him and its a guidance for all of humanity and that He preserved it. Where the hadith verses that says this? Allah tells us clearly that the Quran, not hadith of the Sunnis and Shia but the Quran is infallible, meaning that there are no errors in the Quran, not even one single error because just one error will destroy the infallibility of a Book and this right here puts Allahs Book Quran apart from all other books such as Hadith books of Sunnis and Shia.

The Chopping Block:

Quran = divinely protected VERSUS Sunni/Shia Hadith/Sunnah not protected Quran = Allah's Word VERSUS Sunni/Shia Hadith/Sunnah men's word
107 | P a g e

Quran = no contradictions VERSUS Sunni/Shia Hadith/Sunnah = many contradictions Quran = 100% sahih/sound VERSUS Sunni/Shia Hadith/Sunnah = some weak, some sound, no-one knows Quran = Prophet Muhammad oversaw its recording VERSUS Sunni/Shia Hadith/Sunnah = prophet Muhammad did not oversee its recording Quran = recorded at the time of prophet Muhammad VERSUS Sunni/Shia Hadith/Sunnah = most famous 6 hadith books recorded generations after prophet Muhammad The Qur'an = Allah's Word VERSUS Sunni/Shia Ahadith/Sunnah = man's word The Qur'an = 100% fact/truth/perfect VERSUS Sunni/Shia Ahadith/Sunnah = mix of truth and falsehood (hence weak and strong hadith) The Qur'an = recorded under the DIRECT supervision of prophet Muhammad VERSUS Sunni/Shia Ahadith/Sunnah = not recorded under the DIRECT supervision of prophet Muhammad The Qur'an = written AND memorised word for word as soon as it was transmitted VERSUS Sunni/Shia Ahadith/Sunnah = non-one ever claimed to record and memorise ahadith word for word as soon as it was transmitted The Qur'an = protected explicitly by Allah Himself as stated in The Qur'an VERSUS Sunni/Shia Ahadith/Sunnah = no such explicit protection stated The Qur'an = no Muslim doubts its credibility VERSUS Sunni/Shia Ahadith/Sunnah = each sect has its own versions, weak & strong ones etc The Qur'an = in-built verification mechanism, challenges others to find inconsistancy, bring a chapter like it etc VERSUS Sunni/Shia Ahadith/Sunnah = no such in-built mechanism, full of inconsistancies etc. Its amazing that people who have been advocating Hadith have now started saying that the Qur'an is also a Hadith with the arabic terminology of "Mutwatir" and "Matrook". This seems to have no sense at all why does it not make any sense because the Qur'an was revealed by Allah, sent down through Gabriel 1) narrated 2) inspired to our Prophet, jammah (collected), and "bayaan", arranging was done in the presence of Prophet and under the Supervision of Allah, whereas Hadiths were compiled after 200 years plus depending upon hearsay. Also, the Qur'an has been protected by Allah and no one can dare or think of making any addtion/deletion into it. The Qur'an not the Sunni/Shia Hadith was and still has been and going to be like this till the day of Judgement, whereas no such protection is towards Hadith of the Sunni/Shia.
108 | P a g e

Also the Qur'an is the word of Allah, proved from Quran itself, whereas Hadiths have been ATTRIBUTED TO our Prophet AFTER his death. There is No Iktlaaf/Contradiction whatsoever in Qur'an. Allah asserts in the Qur'an that had it been from anyone except Allah, there would have been Itktlaaf/Contradictions in it. However, the Sunni/Shia Hadith/Sunnah are full of differences and divisions because they are not revealed by Allah but rather attributed to our Prophets by humans. Historically, it is recorded in various places that the Sunni/Shia Hadith/Sunnah were fabricated by people due to their liking/disliking, political difference, gaining of favors where Qur'an is Free from All this mess.

Reflection:
It is a categorical challenge in Qur'an that Bring a book which gives more guidance than two books (One Quran and Moses Book), whereas it cannot be said about the Sunni/Shia Hadith/Sunnah Books. Remember the Qur;an and not the Sunni/Shia Hadith/Sunnah books was 1) jammah 2) amalgamated 3) compiled 4) arranged Now this was during the time of Prophet Muhammad under the direct supervision of Allah. Again, whereas in Hadith books of the Sunnis/Shia everyone has given their contribution according to their own choice after 200 years or more and that also without any guidance/supervision/revelation from Allah. Whoever from the Sunni/Shia want to compare the Qur'an in its totality to the totality of Hadith books of the Sunni/Shia is null and void.

Prophet Muhammad did not have his own path, (Millah) or way (sunna) because he was instructed to follow that of Prophet Ibrahim and the Messengers from the past.
109 | P a g e

"Then awayn (We revealed) to you, ittabi(to follow) Millata ibrahima (the creed of Ibrahim), anfan (inclining toward truth); and he was not of those who associate with Allah." Sura 16/123 "Say, " Allah has told the truth. fa-ittabi (then follow) millata ibrahima (the way of Ibrahim) inclining toward truth; and he was not of the polytheists." Sura 3/95 "And who is fairer dnan (in the way) of life than he who submitted his face to Allah and he is one who is a doer of good wa-ittabaa (and follows) millata ibrahima (the way of Ibrahim), anfan (upright)? And Allah took Ibrahim to Himself khallan (as a friend)." Sura 4/125 "wa-ittabatu (And I follow) millata (the way) b (of my fathers): ib'rhma, Isaac, and Jacob. It was not for us to set up partners with God at all. That is Allah's blessings over us and over the people, but most of the people are not thankful." Sura 12/38 To the true believers of the Straight path these Habr/Scholars are not telling us that the Arabic word "Sunnah" is right inside the Qur'an just like how they concealed the fact "hadith" is in the Qur'an because if they made this known it would expose the falsehood of their schools of thought which teaches us that Bukhari and company compiled man made books called hadith which they call the Sunnah of Muhammad.Yet, the Arabic word "Sunnah" is in the Qur'an and it looks like this:

Again, the Bayyinat (Clear Evidence) in this ayat below where the Arabic word "Sunnah" is found and you will clearly see that it has nothing to do with ahadith compiled by BUKHARI, TIRMIDHI and company:

Again, Allah says about clear ayats, ""It is He who has sent down to you, the Book; in it are verses mu'kamtun (that are precise) - they are ummu (the foundation) of the Book..."
110 | P a g e

So here we have this Sunnah is being presented as a past tense. Remember the chronological order the scriptures were revealed in and when the man-made hadiths were written then compiled by BUKHARI, TIRMIDHI company. 1. Previous scriptures such as the Suhuf, Tawrah, Psalms, Injil, for examples came into existence BEFORE the Qur'an. In other words they were revealed BEFORE the Qur'an. 2. Now the next order of revelation to come is the Qur'an. 3. Now the these so called Hadith books that were written compiled around centuries later after the death of Prophet Muhammad called hadith came AFTER the Qur'an and not BEFORE. Now go back and examine Surah 17/77

Here we see that the "Sunnah" is in past tense, so therefore the "Sunnah" that is spoken of in the Qur'an has nothing to do with the books called hadith compiled by BUKHARI, TIRMIDHI and company which Sunni Muslims say is the Sunnatu Rasoolullah (Sunnah of Messenger) that were again written and compiled in the future (AFTER) the revelation of the best Hadith, the Qur'an and not BEFORE. Now look at the Arabic words below, which is Arabic for

"SunnatuAllah" Again, more Bayyinat (Clear Evidence) "Sunnatu Allah" is found in Qur'an in Surah 48:23 and you will clearly see that it has nothing to do with hadith books written then compiled by BUKHARI, TIRMIDHI and company.
111 | P a g e

Again the "Sunnatu Allah" in that ayat is in past tense, so therefore the "Sunnah" that is spoken of in the Qur'an has nothing to do with the books called hadith written then later compiled by BUKHARI, TIRMIDHI and company which Sunni Muslims say is the Sunnatu Rasoolullah (Sunnah of Messenger) that were again written and later compiled in the future (AFTER) the revelation of the best Hadith, the Qur'an and not BEFORE.

Remember, the Prophet Muhammad followed the Millata Ibrahim:

"Then awayn (We revealed) to you, ittabi(to follow) Millata ibrahima (the creed of Ibrahim), anfan (inclining toward truth); and he was not of those who associate with Allah." Sura 16/123 The Prophet Muhammad followed the Sunnah of Prophet Ibrahim and all the Messengers before him. The Prophet Muhammad followed the Sunnah of Allah. The Millata Ibrahima and Sunnatu Allah are the same thing which is the revelation of Islam, which has always existed since the beginning of time. Remember in Surah 17:77 and Surah 48:23 Allah says Allah's Sunnah is the same in the past with his Messengers before Prophet Muhammad and His Sunnah never changes. The Prophet Muhammad never knew of a Sunnah called the Sunnatu Rasoolullah (Sunnah of Messenger) or the Sunnah of Muhammad as the Scholars call it today. The Prophet Muhammad followed the revelation of the Qur'an that was revealed to him. This is why the so called Habr/Scholars, Sheiks, Religious leaders, Imams, ulama, mullas NEVER point this out to their followers within the plethora of their sects and schools of thought that they created in Islam because they (sheiks, religious leaders, imams, ulama, mullas) who are concealers of the truth do not want the falsehood of their sect and their sectarian teachings in Islam to be exposed.
112 | P a g e

So they keep their followers and congregation in darkness and do not teach the Arabic so that we can see that "hadith" and "sunnah" are in fact in the Qur'an and has nothing to do with the ahadith books written and then later compiled by BUKHARI, TIRMIDHI and company.

Al Kitab wal-Hikmata (the Book and the Wisdom) was not just exclusively for the Prophet Muhammad
Al Hikmata (the Wisdom) is another mutashabihaat/ambiguous ayat, unclear ayat that the Sunnis and Shites love to exploit and misinterpret. The Quran speaks on eight occasions of the Kitab in conjunction with the Hikmata (the Wisdom) and on the ninth occasion ayat Allah is substituted for Al Kitab together with al Hikmata. Now, Hikmata signifies propriety of judgment of conduct. According to the Quran Hikmata is the primary trait of Nubuwaah/the Prophets that entailed the establishment and perpertuation of property in veritable modes of behavior. Even the efforts of a Prophet with a book are directed essentially to the same veritable modes of behavior, hence Hikmata in action. Later, we see the case with the Kitab being embodied in the Hikmata. There is no question of the Hikmata being turned into a mere epheremal accident of the Kitab. The Hikmata springs from the Kitab to the Hikmata and the Kitab grows into the Hikmata. Now the Sunnis and Shites claim that the Hikmata is equated fully with the Sunnah, the pattern of behavior according to the design of the Kitab.

Prophet Muhammad was given Al Hikmata (the Wisdom):

Allah says: "Our Sustainer! and raise up in them a messenger from among them who shall recite to them your verses wayuallimuhumu (and will teach them) kitba (The Book) walik'mata (and the wisdom), and proivide development to their personalities; surely Thou art the Mighty, the Wise." Sura 2/129 "Certainly Allah conferred a favour upon the believers when He raised among them a messenger from among themselves, reciting to them His verses and providing development to their personalities, wayuallimuhumu (and teaching them) kitba (the Book) wal-ik'mata (and the wisdom), although before that they were surely in manifest error." Sura 3/164
113 | P a g e

It is He who has sent among umiyna raslan (gentile Messenger) from themselves yatl (reciting) to them ytihi (His verses) wayuzakkhim (and purifying them) wayuallimuhumu (and teaching them) kitba (the Book) wal-ik'mata (and wisdom) - although they were before in clear error . Sura 62/2 In the above and many similar ayats it is mentioned that the messenger is to give knowledge of the Book and the wisdom. The Book or Al-Kitab, refers to the Quran, as this is clarified in many other verses itself, e.g. But Sunnis and Shites imply that Hikmah or Wisdom in the previously mentioned ayats/verses refers to something other than Al-Kitab, hence it is another type of hidden revelation which the messenger received. According to them, this revelation which is identified as Hikmah, is the un-recited hidden revelation of Allah, and is not contained in the Quran but it is to be found in the books of traditions authenticated by their sect. However to term the books of traditions as Hikmahis very wrong as the Quran itself clarifies what is Hikmah. They try to use the Prophet Muhammads words and deeds as hidden revelations a part divne revelations and they try to say that the Quran makes it quite clear that wahyun (revelation) is not confirned to Books of Allah but is a continuous process in the lives of the Prophets. Then awayn (We revealed) so the question is when did the Prophet Muhammad get this NEW REVELATION. If Sunnis and Shites going to say he received an extra revelation would be here. It says clearly awayn (We revealed) to ittabi (you follow) yet this is overlooked. The Arabic word awayn is the same as wayun. Its clear that this does not mean that this is a new revelation in terms of wayhun (revelation) to be revealed to the alamin.

Also, the same word awayn wayun is used for the Bee:
Your companion has not strayed, nor has he erred, Nor doth he speak from haw (the desire). It is not but wayun (a revelation) y (revealed), Taught to him by one intense in strength. Sura 53/2-5

114 | P a g e

Most of the Sunnis and Shites uses the wahyun (a revelation) to claim that this means Hadith which they assume is the Prophets personal sayings, words collected in Hadith. Yet, they fail to realize that when Allah says, Nor doth he speak from haw (the desire) this is not saying that the Prophet didnt ever speak from his own desire because we have a clear ayat that shows clearly that the Prophet did speak from his own desire, O Prophet! Why do tuarrimu (you bannest / prohibit) that which Allah aalla (hath made lawful) for you, seeking to please thy wives? And Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. Sura 66/1 So its very clear that Allah isnt speaking about the Prophets own personal speech and this would technically be Hadith since most Sunnis and Shites believes Hadith are the personals sayings of the Prophet. It is not but wayun (a revelation) y (revealed), Taught to him by one intense in strength. When Allah says that wayun (a revelation) y (revealed) this is referring only to that which is being revealed to the Prophet as divine revelation which is the Quran. Remember, wayun (a revelation) is the same exact Arabic word as y (revealed). The only time the Prophet did not speak of his own desire is when he was receiving wayun (a revelation) y (revealed) to him. Outside of wahyun yuha was not divine revelation which was subject to error, mistakes, reproofetc.

Allah does not stop with only revealing wahyun yuha just to the Prophet
Allah says: "wa-aw (And inspired) your Lord the bees, saying: "Take you habitations in the mountains and in the trees and in what they erect." Sura 16/68 Hence, some of the Sunnis and Shite Muslims even MISS this particular ayat when they say that the Prophet was given besides the Qur'an other revelations. Allah uses the same Arabic word wahyun yuha he uses for the Bee.

115 | P a g e

Allah uses the same Arabic word for Moses mother was Moses Mother given a Sunnah for us to follow:
"And We had already conferred favor upon you another time, When awayn (We inspired) to your mother what y (revealed)," Sura 20/38

Moses and his brother Harun/Aaron was given Wahyun (Revelation):

wa-awayn (And We inspired) to Moses and his brother, "Settle your people in Egypt in houses and make your houses qiblah and establish salaat and give good tidings to the believers." Sura 10/87

Moses was given Wahyun (Revelation):

Indeed, I am your Lord, so remove your sandals. Indeed, you are in the sacred valley of Tuwa. And I have chosen you, so listen to what y (is revealed.) Sura 20/12 And verily awayn (We inspired) Moses, saying: Take away My slaves by night and strike for them a dry path in the sea, fearing not to be overtaken, neither being afraid. Sura 20/77

Prophet Muhammad received Wahyun (Revelation):

Indeed, awayn (We have reveale) to you (Muhammad), as awayn (We revealed) to Noah and the prophets after him. wa-awayn (And we revealed) to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, the Descendants, Isa, Job, Jonah, Aaron, and Solomon, and to David We gave the book [of Psalms]. Sura 4/163 "Then awayn (We revealed) to ittabi (you follow) the millata religion ib'rhma, inclining toward truth; and he was not of those who associate with Allah." Sura 16:123 Your companion [Muhammad] has not strayed, nor has he erred, Nor does he speak out of desire. It is wayun (a revelation) y (revealed) Sura 53/2-4

Do the Sunnis and Shites know that even the disiciples of Isa ibn Maryam was inspiration as well:

116 | P a g e

And [remember] when awaytu (I inspired) to the disciples, "Believe in Me and in My messenger Isa." They said, "We have believed, so bear witness that indeed we are Muslims. Sura 5/111

Adam was given Wahyun (Revelation):

And We said, "O Adam, dwell, you and your wife, in Paradise and eat therefrom in [ease and] abundance from wherever you will. But do not approach this tree, lest you be among the wrongdoers." Sura 2/35 So he made them fall, through deception. And when they tasted of the tree, their private parts became apparent to them, and they began to fasten together over themselves from the leaves of Paradise. And their Lord called to them, "Did I not forbid you from that tree and tell you that Satan is to you a clear enemy?" Sura 7/22

Noah was given Wahyun (Revelation):

waiya (And it was revealed) to Noah that, "No one will believe from your people except those who have already believed, so do not be distressed by what they have been doing. Sura 11/36 At length, behold! there came Our command, and the fountains of the earth gushed forth! We said: "Embark therein, of each kind two, male and female, and your family except those against whom the word has already gone forth,- and the Believers." but only a few believed with him. Sura 11/40 He said, "O Noah, indeed he is not of your family; indeed, he is [one whose] work was other than righteous, so ask Me not for that about which you have no knowledge. Indeed, I advise you, lest you be among the ignorant." Sura 11/46

Abraham was given Wahyun (Revelation):

And that was Our conclusive argument which We gave Abraham against his people. We raise by degrees whom We will. Indeed, your Lord is Wise and Knowing. Sura 6/83

Jacob was given Wahyun (Revelation):

And when the bearer of good tidings arrived, he cast it over his face, and he returned [once again] seeing. He said, "Did I not tell you that I know from Allah that which you do not know?" Sura 12/94
117 | P a g e

Prophet Yusuf / Joseph was given Wahyun (Revelation):

So when they took him [out] and agreed to put him into the bottom of the well... But wa-awayn (We inspired to him), "You will surely inform them [someday] about this affair of theirs while they do not perceive. Sura 12/15

Prophet Isaac, Jacob and all of them were made righteous and were given Wahyun (Revelation):
And We delivered him (Abraham) and Lot to the land which We had blessed for the worlds. And We gave him Isaac and Jacob in addition, and all [of them] jaaln (We made) lina (righteous). And We made them a-immatan (leaders) guiding by Our command. wa-awayn (And We inspired) to them the doing of good deeds, establishment of salaat, and giving of zakah; and they were servants of Us. Sura 21/7173 Now we see throughout the entire Quran other Prophets were given Wahyun (Revelation) which had nothing to do with the revelation of Books. So when it comes to Prophet Muhammad again why do the Sunnis and Shites make it only exclusive to him. So back to Al Hikmata as we can see Al Hikmata has nothing to do with some hidden revelation being given to the Prophet Muhammad. The claim that Hikmah is some revelation outside of the Quran is refuted by Allah Himself when after stating the divine values of the Quran, Allah says: "This is of what your Sustainer has revealed to you of ik'mati (of Wisdom), and do not associate any other god with Allah lest you should be thrown into hell, blamed, cast away." Sura 17/39 Allah says: Thus the above ayat identifies the Quran itself to be Hikmati, and it is confirmed that Hikmati is simply another attribute of the Book of Allah. "There have already come to them Recitals wherein there is (enough) to check (them). ik'matun blighatun (Wisdom Perfect) but (the preaching of) Warners profits them not." Sura 54/4-5

118 | P a g e

And bear in mind that which is recited in your houses of the revelations of Allah walik'mati (and wisdom). Lo! Allah is Subtile, Aware." Sura 33/34 So here we have from the above ayat Allah conveys to us Along with the Ayat of Allah, hikmati (and wisdom) also recited in the homes of the wives of the Prophet Muhammad which nullifies the claim that Hikmati consists of un recited revelation. The Quran makes it evident that Hikmah is not some revelation outside of the Quran, but is simply another attribute of the Quran itself. All the messengers of Allah, received Al-Kitab i.e. the written laws and injunctions for governing human society, but along with the law, Allah also gave the wisdom or rationale behind that law. Since the law of Allah was not meant to be applied forcefully upon people, and it is something that the people have to accept using their faculties of reason and free will, therefore whenever the Quran ordaines a law, it also gives the wisdom or reason behind it and asks us to reflect upon the benefits we derive by implementing the divine law in our societies.

A human being blessed with al Kitab (the book) and Prophethood also comes with the Hikmati (the Wisdom):
It is not libasharin (for a human/prophet) that Allah should give him kitba (the Scripture) wal-uk'ma (and authority/Wisdom) wal-nubuwata (and prophethood) and then he would say to the people, "Be servants to me rather than Allah ," but [instead, he would say], "Be pious scholars of the Lord because of what you have taught of the Scripture and because of what you have studied." Sura 3/79

Prophet Yusuf was given Wisdom:

And when Joseph reached ashuddahu (his maturity), We gave him uk'man (wisdom/judgment) wail'man (and knowledge). And thus We reward the doers of good. Sura 12/22

Prophet Yahya (John) was given Wisdom:

[Allah] said, "O John, take kitba (the Scripture) biquwwatin (with determination)." And We gave him uk'ma (the wisdom/judgement) abiyyan (while yet a boy). Sura 19/12

119 | P a g e

Prophet Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and the rest of the Prophets of Israel wre given Wahyun (Revelation) and Al Hikmata (Wisdom):
And We gave him (Abraham) Isaac and Jacob in addition, and all [of them] We made righteous. And We made them leaders guiding by Our command. wa-awayn (And We inspired) to them the doing of good deeds, establishment of salaat, and giving of zakah; and they were servants of Us. And to Lot We gave uk'man (the wisdom/judgement) wail'man (and knowledge), and We saved him from the city that was committing wicked deeds. Indeed, they were a people of evil, defiantly disobedient. Sura 21/72-74

Prophet Isa ibn Maryam was given clear proofs, Al Hikmati (Wisdom), came to make clear to them along with telling them to obey him:
And when Isa brought bil-bayinti (clear proofs), he said, "I have come to you bilik'mati (with wisdom) wali-ubayyina (and to make clear) to you some of that over which you differ, so fear Allah wa-ani (and obey me). Sura 43/63 Now Isa ibn Maryam has many similarities that fits the description of what the Sunnis and Shites says represents the Sunnah of Muhammad such as bil-ik'mati (with wisdom) wali-ubayyina (and to make clear) wa-ani (and obey me). These are the main three arguments they love to say represents the Hadith/Sunnah of Muhammad. "[We sent them] bil-bayinti (WITH CLEAR PROOFS) wal-zuburi (AND THE SCRIPTURES). wa-anzaln (AND WE REVEALED) to you dhik'ra (THE REMINDER) litubayyina (THAT YOU MAY MAKE CLEAR) to the people what was sent down to them and that they might give thought." Sura 16/44

This ayat DOES NOT SAY 'THAT YOU MAY EXPLAIN TO THE PEOPLE.' Notice the same exact ayat is given to Prophet Isa below:
And when Isa brought bil-bayinti (CLEAR PROOFS), he said, "I have come to you bil-ik'mati (WITH WISDOM) wali-ubayyina (AND TO MAKE CLEAR TO YOU) to
120 | P a g e

you some of that over which you differ, so fear Allah wa-ani (AND OBEY ME). Sura 43/6

What about the Ulema in the Ummah does the Qur'an support this?
It is clear to us that the early Islamic society that existed after the advent of the Prophet was robust and did not differentiate between worldly and religious issues. According to historical sources the Prophet Muhammad and the four great caliphs carried out both these roles very well without the need for any specialized group to monitor the religious issues. There was no clergy then. Most of the fikh jurists and scholars like Iman Shafie, hadis scholars like Bukhari or scholars of tafsir like Ashari were not born until the 8th or lOth century during the ==> Abbasid Period. The split between the clergy (ulema) and the political leadership (umara) took place at about this time also. For example the high sounding office of "sheikhul Islam" was first used by the Ottoman Turks under Sultan Sulaiman I (1520 1566 AD). This position occupied the same status as Prime Minister in the caliph's cabinet. To justify their role and responsibility in society, the Ulema Association quotes a hadith, just like many other ulema in Malaysia, which says that the ulema are the inheritors of the Prophet's mission.

The Quran doesnt say Ask those who know as the traditional translations are translated as which they imply means the Ulema.
Allah says: "And We did not send before you except men whom We inspired to. So ask the People of the Reminder (Ahl-Azzikr / ) if you do not know." Sura 21/6-7 It reads, / So Ask the People of the Reminder (Ahl-Azzikr / ). 'Azzikr / ' means "The Reminder" and who are "Ahl-Azzikr (People of the Reminder)" mentioned in the verse? If we look at what is just before the verse: "And We did not send before you except men whom We inspired to...", notice that this verse is speaking of previous messengers who
121 | P a g e

were sent with Scriptures, and it points out that they were ordinary human beings. The verse continues...

"So Ask the People of the Reminder (Ahl-Azzikr / ) if you do not know".
This is a statement continuing on from the previous portion, a metaphorical expression to ask the 'People of the Book' (Jews and Nazarenes) who will testify to the existence of previous messengers, since they are following them. "Ahl-Azzikr" is another name for the "Ahl-Al Kitab (People of the Book)", the Jews and the Nazarenes. The particle " (fa)" or "so" in English, used in "so ask the people of The Reminder" is an additional evidence as to linking us with them. "The (Qur'an) is indeed a message for you and your people, (all of) you shall be brought to account, and ASK those arsaln (We sent) min qablika (before you), 'Did We appoint any deities other than the Most Merciful whom they should worship?'" Sura 43/44-45 Why would Allah put something on the Prophet or us that is beyond reason if there are no Prophets around to ask and we don't have the previous Scriptures to seek from? "If you are in shakkin (doubt) as to what We have revealed unto thee, then ask those who have been reading the Book from before you: the Truth hath indeed come to thee from thy Lord: so be in no wise of those in doubt." Sura 10/94

Are the Scholars are the heirs of the Prophets?

http://www.sunypress.edu/pdf/61252.pdf Thus, the research shows historically that is there is no evidence from early Islamic history to support this contention. Even the Constitution of Madinah, a legal document that was allegedly authored by the Prophet himself, does not mention any role for the ulema. And if we read the Qur'an that was brought to us by the Prophet Muhammad we will see that the Qur'an can be inherited by anyone at all whom Allah favours.

It is not limited to the ulama alone in any way. Please note this verse:

122 | P a g e

"What We reveal to you in this scripture is the truth, confirming all previous scriptures. God is aware of all things and is Seer of all things about his servants. We then make inheritors of this Quran from anyone We choose from among our servants." Al Faathir 31-32. Allah (Most Exalted is He), Who created us and gave us sustenance, has also given us guidance. He said: "Verily We have created man into toil and struggle Have We not made for him a pair of eyes; and a tongue, and a pair of lips; and shown him the two ways (obedience and disobedience)?" Sura 90/4-10 After providing us with the capability to contemplate, think and differentiate between things, He instructed us to know Him, to know his Prophets and to know His Deen, Islam. Also Allah says, "So know that there is no god save Allah, ask forgiveness for your sins and for the believing men and the believing women. Allah knows well your moving and your place of rest." Sura 47/19 If we truly realise the importance Islam places on knowledge and its virtues, we will definitely be keen to learn and teach others. We would start with ourselves and then our families then our neighbours and the community at large. We must remember as Muslims we should continue to have a desire to seek knowledge.

Allah instructed His Prophet -- and thus all Muslims -to ask Allah to increase him in knowledge. He said:
"And say: My Lord increase me in knowledge." Sura 20/114 Though, initially, all Muslims are equal in the sight of Allah, those who believe, have taqwah (fear of Allah and righteousness), and have been granted knowledge move up to higher ranks.

Allah says about those who have taqwah:

"Verily the most honoured of you in the sight of Allah is he who has most taqwah." Sura 49/13

123 | P a g e

And He said about those who believed and acquired knowledge:

"Allah will raise up, to (suitable) ranks and (degrees), those of you who believe and who have been granted knowledge. And Allah is well-acquainted with all you do." Sura 58/11 When a servant of Allah is granted knowledge, he/she appreciates Allah's creation more, and becomes more acquainted with Allah's attributes and qualities. Consequently, he/she wholeheartedly witnesses that his Creator who is Allah the Almighty is the only one worthy of worship, and then submits to Him humbly. This, in return, generates in his/her heart a fear, which is akin to a full appreciation and love of their Lord.

In the Qur'an, Allah even witnessed in favour of His learned servants these qualities, full appreciation of His Oneness and fear of Him. Allah states in two verses, to be recited until Doomsday:
"There is no one worthy of worship but He: That is the witness of Allah, His angels and those endowed with knowledge, Standing firm in Justice (or maintaining His Creation in Justice). There is no god but He, the Exalted in power, the Wise." Sura 3/18 "It is only those who have knowledge among His servants that fear Allah." Sura 35/28

So why is there a need for the Ulama? Does it come from the Qur'an? What is its origin?
"And do not pursue that of which you have no knowledge. Indeed, the hearing, the sight and the heart - about all those [one] will be questioned." Sura 17/36 The Arabic word for Ulema is "alim" which means one who has knowledge or knower or all-knowing which is a Divine Attribute. Of the 163 alim ulema words in the Qur'an, only 10 are adjectives for man. The remaining majorities are for Allah.

These examples of the word used for human beings are:

124 | P a g e

1. Alim or ulema magicians, in the story of Prophet Musa Sura 7/109, 112, 10/79, 26/34,37. "The leaders among Pharaohs people said, This man is a learned Aaleemun (sorcerer)!" Sura 7/109 "to summon every sahirin Aalimin (learned sorcerer) to you." Sura 7/112 "And Pharaoh said, Bring me every sahirin Aalimin (learned sorcerer)." Sura 10/79 "Pharaoh said to the counsellors around him, This man is a lasahirun Aalimun (learned sorcerer)!" Sura 26/34 "to bring you every sahharin Aalimin (expert magician)." Sura 26/37 2. Prophet Joseph was an alim in keeping the storehouses Sura 12:55 "Joseph said, "Appoint me over the storehouses of the land. Indeed, I will be a Aalimun (knowing)guardian." Sura 12/55 3. The alim son of Prophet Abraham Sura 15/53, 51/28 "Do not be afraid, they said, We bring you good news of a son who will have great Aalimin (knowledge)." Sura 15/53 "He felt afraid of them but they said, Do not be afraid! and gave him the good news of a son imbued with Aalimin (knowledge)." Sura 51/28 4. The ulama of Bani Israel who believe in the Qur'an Sura 26/197 "Is it not indeed a Sign for them that the scholars of the tribe of Israel have ya Alamahu (knowledge of it)?" Sura 26/197 The ulama here are not the Ezras or the masters or doctors of religion because Allah uses a different word which is the Arabic word Hubr for them. 5. Only the ulema fear Allah, in Surah 35/28.

Some people have claimed that the ulama as used in the above examples are them but they are wrong.
Let us verify further Allah says,

125 | P a g e

"And of humans and beasts and cattle there are likewise diverse hues. Only Aibadihi alAulamao (those of Allahs servants having knowledge) fear Him. Indeed Allah is all-mighty, all-forgiving." Sura 35/28 In Arabic the word ulema, in Allah's language, mean those who know or the experts or the scholars of the arts and sciences excluding those master or doctors of deen. Now since it is not the word ulema that Allah uses then what is the word, the word mentioned by Allah is habr, and this word appears four times in the Qur'an. They are:

1. Habr who uphold the Scripture Sura 5/44

"We sent down the Torah containing guidance and light, and the Prophets who had submitted themselves gave judgement by it for the Jews waalahbaru (and the scholars) and their rabbis by what they had been allowed to preserve of Allahs Book to which they were witnesses. Do not be afraid of people, be afraid of Me. And do not sell My Signs for a paltry price. Those who do not judge by what Allah has sent down, such people are kafirun." Sura 5/44

2. Habr who conceal the truth Sura 5/63

"Why do the rabbis waalahbaru (and religious scholars) not forbid them from saying what is sinful and devouring what is unlawful? How wretched is what they have been practicing." Sura 5/63

3. Habr who cheat the people of their monies and

properties and they keep the people away from the path of Allah Sura 9/34
The Qur'an clearly states:
"They took their ahbarahum (religious scholars) and their monks (as) lords from other than Allah and the Messiah, Mary's Son, and they were not ordered/commanded except to worship one Allah, no Allah except He, His praise/glory from what they share/make partners (with Allah)." Sura 9/34

126 | P a g e

Allah warns us about obeying the teachings of these masters or doctors of religion or habr while disregarding the teachings of Allah tantamount to taking them as gods beside Allah or as His partners. Allah says, "Or do they have associates who legislate for them about religion in mutters which Allah would not permit?" Sura 42/21 Yes, obeying these masters of doctors or religion has made this ummah to be idolaters, or mushriks -to use the Quranic description. Also, we have to overstand that the Quran states that the habr/Scholars are infact the very opponents of the Deen given by Allah. Thus it is stated in Surah At-Tauba: "They took their ahbarahum (religious scholars) and their monks (as) lords from other than Allah and the Messiah, Mary's Son, and they were not ordered/commanded except to worship one Allah, no Allah except He, His praise/glory from what they share/make partners (with Allah)." Sura 9/34 The Habr/Scholars hinders people from the path of Allah described in His Book, by inventing laws from their own selves and then falsely attributing them to Allah. They also tutor their followers to to be sheeple and to accept without hesitation what ever they teach, thus render useless their reasoning ability, and people are deluded to consider the concoted teachings of the Clergy to be the divine truth.

The Quran resents such in the strongest terms:

"Woe, then, to those who write the book with their hands and then say: This is from Allah, so that they may take for it a small price; therefore woe to them for what their hands have written and woe to them for what they earn." Sura 2:79

In Surah Ash-Shoora we are reminded about those who invent Shariahlaws by themselves and then falsely attribute them to Allah and His messenger:
"Or have they associates who have prescribed for them any Shariah laws that Allah does not sanction? And were it not for the word of judgment, decision would have certainly been given between them; and surely the unjust shall have a painful punishment." Sura 42/21

127 | P a g e

SUNNAH n.f. (pl. sunan) -institution, customary action...

In the Qur'an we are given

"Many were 'sunanun' (the Ways of Life) that have passed away before you: travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those who rejected Truth." Surah 3/137

"Allah doth wish to make clear to you and to show you the 'sunana' (to) ways) of those before you; and (He doth wish to) turn to you (In Mercy): And Allah is Allknowing, All-wise." Surah 4/26 "Say to the Unbelievers, if (now) they desist (from Unbelief), their past would be forgiven them; but if they persist, 'sunnatu' (the) practice) of those before them is already (a matter of warning for them)." Surah 8/38 "That they should not believe in the (Message); but ancients have passed away." Surah 15/13 'sunnatu' (the way(s) of the

" 'sunnata' (Such is Our Way) with the apostles We sent before thee: thou wilt find no change 'lisunnatin' (in Our ways.)" Surah 17/77 "And what is there to keep back men from believing, now that Guidance has come to them, nor from praying for forgiveness from their Lord, but that (they ask that) 'sunnatu' (the ways) of the ancients be repeated with them, or the Wrath be brought to them face to face?" Surah 18/55 "There can be no difficulty to the Prophet in what Allah has indicated to him as a duty. ' 'sunnata' l-lahi' Sunnah of Allah That is the way (approved) of Allah amongst those of old that have passed away. And the command of Allah is a decree determined." Surah 33/38 " 'sunnata' l-lahi (Such is the) Way of Allah among those who lived aforetime: No change wilt thou find 'lisunnati' 'l-lahi' (in the Way) of Allah." Surah 33/62 "On account of their arrogance in the land and their plotting of Evil, but the plotting of Evil will hem in only the authors thereof. Now are they but looking for 'sunnata' (the way) of the ancients were dealt with? But no change wilt thou find
128 | P a g e

'lisunnati' l-lahi (in the way) (of) Allah of dealing: no turning off wilt thou find 'lisunnati Allahi' in Allah's way (of dealing)." Surah 35/43 "But their professing the Faith when they (actually) saw Our Punishment was not going to profit them.'sunnata' 'l-lahi' (Such is the Way) Allah's Way of dealing with His Servants (from the most ancient times). And even thus did the Rejecters of Allah perish (utterly)!" Surah 40/85 " Sunnata Allahi (Such has been) the practice (approved) of Allah already in the past: no change wilt thou find in 'lisunnati' 'Allahi' the practice (approved) of Allah. " Surah 48/23 Where is this 'Sunnatu Rasoolillah which means 'Sunnah of Muhammad/Messenger' that the Sunnis are referring to? Allah mentions Sunnah throughout the entire Qur'an not one time does it connect to Muhammad. The Qur'an mentions Hadith throughout the Qur'an and not one time does it connects to Muhammad. There is a problem. The Quran is Fully Detailed, Complete and it explains all things in terms of deen.

There are some Muslims who say that the Qur an is incomplete that is why we need Hadith and Sunnah books
Allah says about the Quran: We have revealed to you this book tib'ynan (as a clarification) likulli shayin (of everything) wahudan (and a guidance) waramatan (and mercy) wabush'r (and glad tidings) lil'mus'limna (for the Muslims). Sura 16/89 Tibyaan means to clarify something which requires clarification and explanation. Yet, something which is inherently clear doesnt require elucidation, lest any excessive explanations amount to curiosity and mere prattle for which we have no need Allah revealed His Book with straightforward ayats in which is no scope for nonsense or addition. For this reason, the Quran clears up what it has to clear up, and everything that requires clarification and elucidation has been clarified and elucidated in the Quran. And something which doesnt require elucidation is in no need to be elucidated, especially in a Book whose verses have been detailed from a Most Wise, Most Cognizant.
129 | P a g e

We have given them a scripture that is fully detailed, with knowledge, guidance, and mercy for the people who believe." Sura 7/52 A.L.R. This is a scripture whose verses have been perfected, then elucidated. It comes from a Most Wise, Most Cognizant. Sura 11/1 We have given them a scripture that is fully detailed, with knowledge, guidance, and mercy for the people who believe." Sura 7/52 For this reason, trusting in Allahs Words, the believers who research and study the whole Quran and who find it sufficient, they are the only ones who understand the Quran. The Quran didnt leave anything out, and was brought down to clarify everything, it came down with the details for everything we need. The Muslim who believes in the Quran is in no hurry to accuse the Book of Allah with deficiency or ambiguity making it in need of clarification, or that it came to us sketchy and thus its in need of someone to give the details. Thus, the one who believes in the Quran, believes Allahs assertion that He did not leave anything out of the Quran and that it came down clarifying and detailing everything. And just so that no one manipulates the Qurans intended meaning with their evil desires or bad intentions so that they say where is such and such a thing mentioned in the Quran? they must grasp the concept of the Qurans logic before they are quick to accusations.

Regarding this Allah says:

We thus explain the revelations for people who know. Sura 7/32 We thus explain the revelations for people who reflect. Sura 10/24) We thus explain the revelations for people who understand. Sura 30/28 A scripture whose verses provide the complete details, in an Arabic Quran, for people who know. Sura 41/3 Some Muslims say that we dont find a problem regarding the method for prayer or the number of its units. If Allah who is The Knower of the past, future, and present! knew that we would face a problem with regard to what traditionally has come to be known as Salaat/prayer, then Allah would have made clear to us its method, the number of prayers, and its times with detail.
130 | P a g e

However, He only brought down the Quran clarifying what we actually need in the present and the future, He brought down the Quran with truth and with the law. Allah is the One who sent down bil-aqi (the scripture), wal-mzna (and the Balance) Sura 42/17 There is no scope for addition for which we have no need. Had the Quran been revealed detailing for us the Salaat which some believe to mean prayer while we already know what it is as the Ahlul Kitab have been practicing/establishing the Salaat/commandments then that would have been somewhat flippant; and there is no scope for flippancy in the Book of Allah. Allah says: By the sky that returns (the water). By the earth that cracks (to grow plants). This is a serious narration. Not to be taken lightly. Sura 86/11-14

Now why would any Muslim question the assertions Allah gives about His Book? As for those who dont know, they are the ones who challenge the Qurans assertions, disbelieving its clarity and not believing that it details everything; they say:
1: Where is the number of units of prayer mentioned in the Quran? 2: Where is the method for prayer mentioned in the Quran? 3: How should we perform the pilgrimage? 4: Where are the days of the week mentioned in the Quran? Allah says about these people: wa-alladhna (And those who) saaw (constantly challenge) f (against) ytin (our revelations), mujizna (to cause failure) those for them adhbun (is a punishment) min (of) rij'zin (foul nature) almun (painful). Sura 34/5 Allah refers to them in this ayat in the past tense, so what of the Muslims in the present? Allah says: wa-alladhna (And those who) yasawna (consistently challenge) f (against) ytin (Our revelations), mujizna (to cause failure) those into adhbi (the punishment) mu'arna (will be brought). Sura 34/38
131 | P a g e

So far it has been made clear that certain expressions for Prophet Muhammad.

Challenges disbelievers to produce a Surah like it (the Qur'an)

Allah says, "And if you are in doubt about what We have sent down upon Our Servant, then produce a surah the like thereof and call upon your witnesses other than Allah , if you should be truthful. But if you do not - and you will never be able to - then fear the Fire, whose fuel is men and stones, prepared for the disbelievers. " Sura 2/23-24

The Qur'an confirms earlier revelations and challenges disbelievers to produce a Surah like the Qur'an:
"Now this Qur'an could not possibly have been devised by anyone save God: nay indeed, it confirms the truth of whatever there still remains of earlier revelations and clearly spells out the revelation-let there be no doubt about it-from the Sustainer of all the worlds. Or do they say, "He invented it?" Say, "Then bring forth a surah like it and call upon whomever you can besides Allah , if you should be truthful." Sura 10/37-38

Challenges us to reflect on the Qur'an had it been from any other they would have found many ikh'tilafan (contradictions) in it:
"Then do they not reflect upon the Qur'an? If it had been from [any] other than Allah , they would have found within it much ikh'tilfan (contradiction)." Sura 4/82

Challenges us to understand the qawla (this word):

"Have they, then, never tried to understand qawla (this word)? Or has there come to them something that never came to their forefathers of old?" Sura 23/68

Challenges us to ponder over the ayats:

"(It is) a Book We have revealed to you abounding in good that they may ponder over its verses, and that those endowed with understanding may be mindful." Sura 38/29

132 | P a g e

"Will they not, then, ponder over this Quran? - or are there locks upon their hearts?" Sura 47/24

Challenges those who said the Prophet Muhammad invented it then produce ten Surahs like the Qur'an:
"Or do they say, "He invented it"? Say, "Then bring ten surahs like it that have been invented and call upon [for assistance] whomever you can besides Allah , if you should be truthful. And if they do not respond to you - then know that the Qur'an was revealed with the knowledge of Allah and that there is no deity except Him. Then, would you [not] be Muslims?" Sura 11/13-14

Challenges disbelievers to produce a Hadith like the Qur'an:

"Let them produce biadthin (a hadith) like this, if they are truthful." Sura 52/34

If any book would be revealed to the mountains that would have the mountains would be removed and the earth would be broken a part along with the dead would be made to speak it would be the Qur'an:
"And if there was any qur'an by which the mountains would be removed or the earth would be broken apart or the dead would be made to speak, but to Allah belongs the affair entirely. Then have those who believed not accepted that had Allah willed, He would have guided the people, all of them? And those who disbelieve do not cease to be struck, for what they have done, by calamity - or it will descend near their home until there comes the promise of Allah . Indeed, Allah does not fail in [His] promise." Sura 13/31

Recite the Qur'an at dawn that is always witnessed:

"So perform the regular prayers in the period from the time the sun is past its zenith till the darkness of the night, and [recite] the Quran at dawn- dawn recitation is always witnessed." Sura 17/78

If the sea was ink writing the words of Allah the sea would be exhausted:

133 | P a g e

"Say, "If the sea were ink for [writing] the words of my Lord, the sea would be exhausted before the words of my Lord were exhausted, even if We brought the like of it as a supplement." Sura 18/109

Challenges others to bring a scripture from Allah that could be more guiding than either the Qur'an or the Tawrah:
"Say, "Then bring a scripture from Allah which is more guiding than either of them that I may follow it, if you should be truthful. But if they do not respond to you - then know that they only follow their [own] desires. And who is more astray than one who follows his desire without guidance from Allah ? Indeed, Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people." Sura 28/49-50

If the trees was pens and the sea was ink backed by seven more seas the words of Allah would not be exhausted:
"And if whatever trees upon the earth were pens and the sea [was ink], replenished thereafter by seven [more] seas, the words of Allah would not be exhausted. Indeed, Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise." Sura 31/27

If the Qur'an was sent to a mountain the mountain would fall a part from fear of Allah:
"If We had sent down this Qur'an upon a mountain, you would have seen it humbled and coming apart from fear of Allah. And these examples We present to the people that perhaps they will give thought." Sura 59/21

The History of Islam is divided among two major sects the Shias and the Sunnis.
Prophet Muhammad was only a Prophet/Messenger sent with a message from Allah and yet these two sects between the Sunnis and Shiites fabricated TWO SEPERATE sets of hadith which they both claim is the authentic Hadith and Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad. However, when confronted about why do both sects reject each others authentic Hadith which set they accept as the true authentic Hadith and Sunnah for their sect
134 | P a g e

none of them are able to provide a clear response. They claim they dont reject Hadith but they do and this is proven clearly because the Sunnis rejects the Shites authentic Hadith and Sunnah books and the Shites rejects the Sunnis authentic Hadith and Sunnah books.

The fallacy behind this is very obvious because for as the facts are:
1. Prophet Muhammad just ONE man so how can they have two separate sets of Hadith and Sunnah books that give a contradicting history? 2. And Allah has condemned hadith by name in the Quran

The ACID TEST PUTTING THIS ON THE CHOPPING BLOCK

Allah says: "Then do they not reflect upon the Qur'an? If it had been from [any] other than Allah , they would have found within it much ikh'tilfan (contradiction)." Sura 4/82

Three simple questions for those tales of the Ancients, Hadith:

1) Does Hadith provide the historical circumstances of each and every verse of the Quran? 2) Is there only one consistent set of data available for this? 3) Does the whole Muslim Ummah have an un errant source for this material or does every sect have its own version of "Asbaab ul nuzzul"? The Mother of the 'book' (Umm-ul-Kitab) is the master source which is within Allah's presence. It is the original source and foundation from which all scriptures and revelations from Allah emanate including the Quran.

139 | P a g e

Allah eliminates what He wills and confirms what He pleases: with Him is the Mother of the Book (Umm ul-Kitab) Sura 13/39 By the Book that makes things clear. Indeed, We have made it a Quran in Arabic, that ye may be able to understand. And indeed, it is in the Mother of the Book (Umm-ulKitab), in our presence (Arabic: Ladayna), high (in dignity), full of wisdom Sura 43/2-4 The Umm-ul-Kitab is a source in the presence of Allah and is also referred to as the Luh-e-Mahfuz (Guarded tablet) which is fully guarded and protected Nay! This is a Glorious Quran, (Inscribed) in a Tablet Guarded / Protected (Luh-eMahfuz) Sura 85/21-22

There are only two methods as to how the Quran has reached us today:
(1) One method of preservation which is depicted by unreliable Ahadith reports collected centuries later but depicting a period centuries earlier. (2) Or by a foolproof system protected by Allah (15:9; 85:21) which could include a manner of processes such as: An oral tradition aided by perpetual memory recitation and preserved in written form by set scribes during the time of the Prophet in Sura 80/13-16; 68/1; 96/1-5; 98/2-3; 25/5) and immediately afterwards. We even have Quran memorisers today known as Huffuz and are aware of some very early complete Qurans. By restricting the development of Islamic secondary sources so the Quran remained the sole source of guidance for the earliest Muslim communities. Ahadith only took canon centuries later and were never attested and written down by either the Prophet or any of his immediate companions which have reached us today.

Yet, through their Tales of the Ancients Hadith they want us to believe that the Qur'an is protected when we are told in their Hadith:
1) That verses were missing and a goat ate the stoning verse with regards to adultery 2) That the Prophet of Allah introduced the Satanic verses 3) That Caliph Uthman burnt the extant copies of the Quran

4) That there was a missing suckling verse (Ten clear sucklings which made the marriage unlawful, then it was later abrogated (and substituted) by five sucklings and then was somehow removed or missed from the Quran altogether 5) That there was a missing Ibn Adam verse (regarding Ibn Adam's possession of a wadi of property) 6) That there was a missing 'pleasing' verse from the Quran (regarding those that were slain at Bi'r Mauna which included the verse "Inform our tribe on our behalf that we have met with our Lord. He has been well pleased with us and has satisfied our desires) 7) And many others, from al-Baraa, verses that were lost with dead Muslims, cancelled and repealed verses and those forgotten by the Prophet himself and those lost by Quranic reciters.

Does the Quran make such fanciful claims or even hint to it?
No. Is one really led to believe that the information of the Quran's preservation would be left to the protection of those historians and compilers that give us the 'Satanic Verses' (Ibn Saad via Al Waqidi) or by compilers that refer to individuals that tell us amongst other things: 1) That that Prophet made love to all his wives in one night 2) How the Prophet fondled his wives during their menses 3) That Satan passes wind (flatulence) during Adhan 4) That the Prophet forgot his surahs 5) That the Prophet ordered dogs to be killed 6) That Satan urinates in one's ears 7) That the Prophet was confused about sexual relations with his wives under the influence of magic 8) The Prophet allowed to burn people with fire 9) That the Prophet allowed the killing of women and children in war
