ZAKIR NAIK
It seems Dr. Naik is a mysterious home grown, home fed, self read and self
trained scholar of Islam.
(3) As per the information on his Website, Dr. Naik was influenced by the
comparative religion lectures of Shaikh Ahmed Deedat (r) (1918-2005) of
South Africa when he was studying medicine. This means that Dr. Naik's
self-home-reading of Islamic subjects started when he was around 22 years
old (around 1987). Amazingly, within 3 years' of self-reading of Islamic
subjects (1987-1990), in addition to his extensive medical full-time on-
campus study, semester exams, medical internship, etc., he read everything
about Islam and established Islamic Research Foundation in February 1991
and started full time Da'wa.
In his lectures, Dr. Naik says that he started Da'wa even before the
establishment of IRF in 1991. This shows Dr. Naik has exceptional ability
of memorization. He did not read Islamic subjects with the intention to
understand them, he simply by-hearted every book that came his way.
Those whose memory is sharp, are generally intelligent, but they often
become dictionaries. They never try to understand the subject; they
memorize it with the intention to repeat it either in an exam or in front of
people to get applause. They heavily depend upon their word-by-word
photo finish memory and develop their skills in debates. They mesmerize
their audience by skillful display of their memory and often turn the tables
on their opponents in debates. They can convert logic into illogic and
wisdom into stupidity and vice versa by their arguments and oratory. They
use their vast memory to confuse their opponents and followers both. Over
a period of time when they become famous and develop considerable
following among masses, they start large scale misinterpretation of facts by
their skillful arguments and become leaders of a new group in the world.
That is how Ibn Taymiyya (1263-1328) became the founder of a new Sect by
the power of his super memory and oratory. Now Zakir Naik is a living
example of this phenomenon.
(a) It is important to mention here that Shaikh Ahmed Deedat (r) was an
Ahle Sunnah Scholar who used to give a lot of respect to Shaikh Mir
Asedullah Quadri. Shaikh Deedat (r) wrote many letters to Shaikh Mir
Asedullah Quadri from his Islamic Propagation Center International
appreciating the work of Shaikh Quadri. He used to send his books and
booklets to the Shaikh from South Africa. Both these Shaikhs never met,
but had great respect for each other and were in contact via letters and
exchange of their books. We will briefly mention here about some of the
last letters of Shaikh Ahmad Deedat (r) to Shaikh Asedullah Quadri.
Shaikh Mir Asedullah Quadri sent most of his books to IPCI, South Africa.
Many of the books sent to Ahmad Deedat (r) were related to Tasawwuf and
he was very happy to read them. Click Here to read Shaikh Deedat's (r)
letter thanking Shaikh Asedullah Quadri after receiving the books.
Shaikh Ahmad Deedat (r) was a rare gem and a Sufi at heart though his
area of specialization was comparative religion. He also had exceptional
memory, but he never misused it.
(b) Shaikh Ahmad Deedat (r) belonged to Ahle Sunnah wal Jama'a, is
also established from the fact that he used to take advise from Dr. Tahir-ul-
Qadri in matters of Islamic Fiqh. Evidence in this context is available on
Internet and Youtube.
(c) Shaikh Ahmad Deedat (r) being an honest Sunni (Hanafi) Shaikh is also
established from the fact that he openly supported and participated in
Milad-un-Nabi ( )وس لم آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ص لىCelebrations.
(d) Shaikh Ahmad Deedat (r) credentials as a Sunni Shaikh are also
established from the fact that he praised Maulana Abdul Aleem Siddiqui (r)
who was a student of Aala Hazrat Ahmed Radha Khan (r).
(e) Shaikh Ahmad Deedat (r) was a Sunni Scholar is also proved from the
fact that Salafi Scholars declared him Mushrik and Bidati for his clear cut
Ahle Sunnah beliefs.
However, lately on Dr. Naik's Wikipedia page they have removed 'Salafi'
and now it shows only 'Islam'.

Dr. Naik says God has two hands, two eyes, face, legs, shins and has large
body and sits above the skies on a big chair facing towards Arsh. Someone
asked Dr. Naik, how are God's hands and body; he said, 'we do not know, it
is known to God only'.
The description of Salafi Sky God is similar in nature with Hindu God
Vishnu. The only difference between Hindu God Vishnu and Salafi Sky Idol
God is, Vishnu is married, while Salafi Sky God is single. Also Hindus draw
and make models of their God Vishnu, while Salafis don't, but their faith in a
huge human like Idol as their God is same, identical.

Quote - There is no text in the Quran or Sahih Hadith mentioning the name
of the revelation that was sent to India. Since the names of the Vedas or
other Hindu scriptures are nowhere to be found in Quran and Sahih
Hadith, one cannot say for sure that they were the revelations of God.
They may be the revelation of God or may not be the revelation of God -
Unquote.
However in all his speeches, he mentions the Vedic and other Hindu
scriptures that were originally invented and documented by Abdul Haq
Vidyarthi Qadiyani, word-by-word; and reiterates that advent of Prophet
Mohammad ( )وس لم آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ص لىhas been prophecied in Hindu
scriptures.
This practice on the part of Dr. Naik establishes the fact that he believes in
Hindu scriptures as the word of God (in an altered format as that of Bible)
though he does not want to declare it openly.
Dr. Zakir Naik mentions the following Quranic verse hundreds of times in
his speeches and invites Hindus to come to common terms with Muslims.
It is in Quran - ش ْ ُﷲَ َو َال ن س َوا ٍء بَ ْينَنَا َوبَ ْينَ ُك ْم أَ ﱠال نَ ْعبُ َد إِ ﱠال ﱠ
َ ب تَ َعالَ ْوا إِلَ ٰى َكلِ َم ٍةِ ِر َك بِ ِه قُ ْل يَا أَ ْھ َل ا ْل ِكتَا
ِﷲ ِ ضا أَ ْربَابًا ﱢمن د
ُون ﱠ ً ضنَا بَ ْع َ ◌ۚ ش َھدُوا بِأَنﱠ
ُ ش ْيئًا َو َال يَتﱠ ِخ َذ بَ ْع ْ سلِ ُمونَ فَإِن تَ َولﱠ ْوا فَقُولُوا ا ْ [ ا ُمMeaning -
Say: ( O' Prophet - " )وس لم آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ص لىO People of the Book! come to
common terms as between us and you: That we worship none but Allah
()یس بحانہ و تع ا ل, that we associate no partners with him; that we associate
not, from among ourselves, Lords and patrons other than Allah (س بحانہ و
)یتع ا ل." If then they turn back, you say: "Bear witness that we are
Muslims]. (Aal-e-Imran - 64).
We have not come across a Hadith in which Prophet Mohammad (ﷲ ص لى
)وس لم آل ه و علي هcalled upon Idol worshipers to come to common terms with
Islam.
Why then Dr. Naik reads the above verse and invites Hindus to come to
common terms?
This practice of Dr. Naik confirms the fact that he believes in all Hindu
scriptures as the word of God.
As a matter of fact he has never denied that these scriptures are not the
word of God as he says these may be or may not be the word of God.
Dr. Naik calls Zoroastrianism a prophetic religion and calls its founder
Zoroaster as 'Prophet'. In one of his lectures he said: "Zoroastrianism is a
Non Semitic, Aryan, Non Vedic religion, which is not associated with
Hinduism and it is a Prophetic religion. Zoroastrianism is also called as
Parsism and it was founded by Prophet Zoroaster. Reference - (Concept of
God in Major Religions - from the CD - 'Presenting Islam and Clarifying
Misconceptions' - Lecture series by Dr. Naik, Developed by AHYA Multi
Media - 12 Enlightening Sessions).
Quran testifies that all Prophets gave the same message about Allah
()یس بحانہ و تع ا ل. But Zoroaster preached worship of fire. We do not
understand how Dr. Naik testifies Zoroaster as prophet?
(a) If he accepts openly Hindu scriptures, as word of God, then he will have
to accept (like Qadiyanis do) that Ram, Krishna, Buddha, Ashoka and Guru
Nanak were all Prophets and that Kalki Avatar (the 10th incarnation of
Hindu God Vishnu to appear before dooms day) is the (final) Prophet.
(b) Qadiyanis are treated as out of Islam in the Muslim world and it is
difficult for Dr. Naik to openly disclose his Qadiyani beliefs because it will
create a lot of problems for him in Muslim community. Dr. Naik knows
pretty well, what will happen to him if he discloses his above hidden beliefs
in public.
The most serious and alarming concern is, Dr. Naik is making millions of
Muslims believe in Hindu scriptures as the word of God from his
misleading D'awa.
(a) In August 2008, Darul Uloom Deoband, India issued a fatwa stating:
"The statements made by Dr Zakir Naik indicate that he is a preacher of
Ghair Muqallideen (People who reject Imams of Fiqh., like Salafis, Ahle
Hadith, etc.). One should not rely upon his speeches."
(b) Similar Fatwas are issued by many other scholars including Deobandi
Mufti Zar Wali Khan, founder of Jamia Arabia Ahsan-ul-uloom, Karachi,
Pakistan
(c) Yaha Al-Hajoori, the famous Ahl-e-Hadith scholar condemned Dr. Naik
in many of his writings and declared him Kafir.
(d) More than 20 Fatawas of Kufr were issued by the Shariah Board of
America against Naik. They say Naik has gone astray as he is not a scholar
but is involved in Islamic teachings without authority or any knowledge to
do so, which is dangerous to Islam. "Naik is known for discussions on
comparative religions. He is not a qualified Aalim-e-Deen, therefore his
comments on fiqh have no merit. If it is true that he condemned the fiqh of
the Imams, then that in itself is a clear indication of his lack of
understanding of Shariah."
(e) A Fatwa was issued by Darul Ifta Jamia Binnoria, Pakistan, regarding
Zakir Naik not being a certified Aalim of Deen.
(h) Dr. Zakir Naik did 'Tauba' in writing in front of Ahle Sunnah Scholars
and Assistant Commissioner of Police, Greater Mumbai, India on
November 12, 2008 for his Kufriya statement about Prophet Mohammad
()وس لم آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ص لى. Click Here for details. However, he did not
change after his written Taubah and still continues with his lies and
misrepresentation of Islam. View Video clip.
He was criticized for his lies by many scholars but he continues this practice
without any regard to Quran and Ahadith. He should know that taking
Quran in hand and lying about its contents is a serious crime in Islam.
Denial and misrepresentation of Quranic verses and Ahadith takes a person
out of Islam. There are hundreds of occasions when Dr. Naik lied about
Quran and Ahadith in front of huge crowds. We have given below some of
these references.
(a) He misguides innocent Muslims about Quranic verses. Like the Arabic
words 'Shifa' and Shafa'a are two different words. He tricks innocent
Muslims to believe that both these words are same. In one of his speeches
he claimed that - "there are 25 verses in Quran which say that
Shifa - meaning waseelah, shifaarish - is Haraam".
We have provided below the three verses in Quran which contain the word
'Shifa'. And we have provided their English meanings (Yousuf Ali) as well.
(i) It is in Quran - اس أَ ﱡي َھا يَا ُ شفَا ٌء َو ﱠربﱢ ُك ْم ﱢمن ﱠم ْو ِعظَةٌ َجا َء ْت ُكم قَ ْد النﱠ
ِ الصدُو ِر فِي لﱢ َما
َو ُھدًى ﱡ
ٌ[ لﱢ ْل ُم ْؤ ِمنِينَ َو َر ْح َمةMeaning -O' mankind! there hath come to you a direction
from your Lord and a healing for the (diseases) in your hearts, and for
those who believe, a guidance and a Mercy] (Younus - 57).
(ii) It is in Quran - َشفَا ٌء َو َر ْح َمةٌ لﱢ ْل ُم ْؤ ِمنِين ِ َو َال يَ ِزي ُد الظﱠالِ ِمينَ إِ ﱠال ۙ◌ َونُنَ ﱢز ُل ِمنَ ا ْلقُ ْر
ِ آن َما ُھ َو
َ [ َخMeaning - We send down (stage by stage) in the Qur'an that which is
سا ًرا
a healing and a mercy to those who believe: to the unjust it causes nothing
but loss after loss]. (Asra - 82).
(iii) It is in Quran - ُصلَتْ آيَاتُه قُ ْل ُھ َو ۗ◌ أَأَع َْج ِم ﱞي َو َع َربِ ﱞي ۖ◌ َولَ ْو َج َع ْلنَاهُ قُ ْرآنًا أَع َْج ِميًّا لﱠقَالُوا لَ ْو َال فُ ﱢ
شفَا ٌء ِ ان ۚ◌ َال يُ ْؤ ِمنُونَ فِي آ َذانِ ِھ ْم َو ْق ٌر َو ُھ َو َعلَ ْي ِھ ْم َع ًمى َوالﱠ ِذينَ ۖ◌ لِلﱠ ِذينَ آ َمنُوا ُھدًى َو ٍ أُولَ ٰـئِ َك يُنَاد َْونَ ِمن ﱠم َك
[ بَ ِعي ٍدMeaning Had We sent this as a Qur'an (in the language) other than
Arabic, they would have said: "Why are not its verses explained in detail?
What! (a Book) not in Arabic and (a Messenger an Arab?" Say: "It is a Guide
and a Healing to those who believe; and for those who believe not, there is
a deafness in their ears, and it is blindness in their (eyes): They are (as it
were) being called from a place far distant!"] (Fussilat - 44).
We fail to understand how can some one talk like this in front of thousands
of people?
A person who daringly lies about Quran and Ahadith (i) must be thinking
that all Muslims of the world are fools, (ii) or is not afraid of Allah (س بحانہ و
)یتع ا ل, (iii) or must have gone mad.
(b) Dr.Zakir Naik claims that there is no Hadith in the entire Ahadith
literature which says that Wajib al-Vitre Salah can be performed with one
"Salam" (like Maghrib prayer).
This is a blatant lie. There are more than 75 Ahadith in authentic books of
Ahadith which certify that Vitr is performed with one 'Salam'. View this
Video Clip......
(c) Zakir Naik says that there are many Ahadith in Bukhari where Prophet
Mohammad ( )وس لم آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ص لىsaid that we should say "Ameen"
with a loud voice during Salah after Sura Fatiha.
This is a blatant lie. There is only one Hadith in Bukhari in this context,
which does not say that we should say 'Ameen' loudly. Therefore, the
ruling of Imam Abu Hanifa that we should say Ameen slowly after Sura
Fatiha cannot be viewed as wrong.
Zakir Naik also claims that Imams of Fiqh did not have enough knowledge
and were not aware of all Ahadith during their life times.
(d) Zakir Naik says that there is no verse in Quran, or any Hadith in the
entire Hadith literature which says that it is allowed to visit Graves of
Awliya Allah and request them to pray for our well being. View this
misleading Video Clip.
This is another blatant lie. We have listed more than 70 Ahadith and
Quranic verses which say it is important to visit Mazaarat and ask for
mediation. Even Imam Shafi'i used to go to the grave of Imam Abu Hanifa
daily and ask for his mediation. Read following Articles for details.
Visiting the Graves of Awliya Allah
(e) Zakir Naik says that making of graves and tombs over graves is Haraam
in Islam. This shows his lack of Islamic knowledge and deliberate
misrepresentation of Islam to innocent Muslims. He should know that
even Prophet Mohammad ( )وس لم آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ص لىordered his pious
mazaar to be within a secured room with roofing. After making the mazaar
of Prophet Mohammad ( )وس لم آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ص لىSahabah did not destroy
the room. As a matter of fact it was reinforced and ultimately a large tomb
was built on Raudhatun Nabi ()وس لم آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ص لى. Read facts about
building tombs over the Graves ....
(f) Zakir Naik does not differentiate between a dead non-believer and a
dead Muslim. He treats even Prophet Mohammad (آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ص لى
)وس لمon par with a dead non-believer and claims that the Prophet (ص لى
)وس لم آل ه و علي ه ﷲis dead like any other human being (Muslim or non-
Muslim) and he cannot hear or see anything (Nauzubillah -
Astaghrifullah). This is the height of illiteracy of a so called scholar. Read
the following and many more Articles on our website to know the facts on
this subject in the light of Quran and Ahadith.
(g) Zakir Naik claims that it is haraam to say Fateha on Food and he quotes
out of the context Quranic verses to fool innocent Muslims. We have
quoted 15 Quranic verses and Ahadith to nail down his lies. Click the
following links to read details.
Fateha and Eisaal-e-Thawaab
(h) Dr. Zakir Naik praises Yazid and claims that Karbala was a political
episode (Astaghfirullah - We pray Allah - یس بحانہ و تع ا لto save Islam
from hypocrites).
He says عن ہ یرض ئ ﷲ تع الwith Yazid's name and mentions a Hadith in
Bukhari in which Prophet Mohammad ( )وس لم آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ل ىصsaid the
first Muslim Army who will invade the city of Constantinople (presently
Istanbul) will be rewarded with Jannah. He claims Yazid was part of that
army.
Not even a single Hadith mentioned in this context in the entire Hadith
literature has the word "Constantinople" in its text. However, some Hadith
scholars have mentioned the name "Constantinople" in their Hadith
guides.
Read the following facts and you will know the height of Dr. Zakir Naik
lies.
The wording of the Hadith are "awwalu jaishin min ummati yaghzoona
madinata Qaisara maghfurullahum". [Meaning - "The first Muslim army
who will invade the city of Qaiser-e-Room (Byzantine empire) will be
Jannati."] Thus, it could be any city of Byzantine empire.
Read any Islamic History book written by any well known Islamic
historian (including Salafi scholar Al-Dhahabi, Ibn Katheer etc.) it is
mentioned that the first Muslim invasion of Constantinople, Byzantine
empire took place in 42 H in which Yazid was not there.
But the Hadith says that the first Muslim Army who will invade Byzantine
empire is Jannati. Then how come Yazid is claimed to be Jannati?
The Salafis mention Hadith Guide book Fatahul Bari written by Ibn Hajar
Asqalani in which it is mentioned that 'the invasion of Constantinople took
place in 52 H and the commander of this Army was Yazid. Even if we take
this date as authentic, then this will be the ninth invasion of that city, and
not the first one. Because, as we have mentioned earlier with authentic
sources that 8 invasions had already taken place before this date.
Therefore, Yazid cannot be part of the people who are declared Jannati by
Prophet Mohammad ()وس لم آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ص لى.
It is also mentioned in many Islamic History books that at the time of 8th
invasion of Byzantine empire, Janab Muawiah wanted Yazid to participate,
but he refused. We cannot go into these details here because our Article is
becoming too long.
We do not understand why Zakir Naik wants to favor Yazid against Imam
Husain ()هعن یرض ئ ﷲ تع ال.
Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal was asked by his son that a group of people
(qawm) attribute us to [be with] Yazid , he replied, O son! Whoever
believes in Allah ()یس بحانہ و تع ا ل, how can they have any association with
Yazid? And why should he not be cursed (laanat) when Allah (س بحانہ و
)یتع ا لsends laanat on him in his Book. The son asked where did Allah
( )یس بحانہ و تع ا لsend laanat on him in His Book? The Imam replied “in
this saying of Allah (”)یس بحانہ و تع ا ل:
It is in Quran - 'Do you then have the sign that if you get the authority,
spread disorder in the land and sever your ties of Kinship? These are they
whom Allah ( )یس بحانہ و تع ا لhas cursed and made them deaf from the
truth and made their eyes blind'. (Sura Mohammad - آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ص لى
)وس لم, Verses 22-23), and then said, is there any greater fasaad than the
assasination of Husain (?)عن ہ یرض ئ ﷲ تع ال
بمقت ل دولت ه افتت ح المنك ر ويفع ل المس كر يتن اول جلف ا غليظ ا فظ ا ناص بيا وك ان
وخرج عمره ف ي يب ارك ول م الن اس فمقت ه الح رة بواقع ة واختتمھ ا الحس ين دالش ھي
ق اموا المدين ة كأھل الحس ين بع د واحد غ ير علي ه
[Meaning - He (Yazid) was a disgusting Nasibi (those who hate Ahle bait-e-
Rasulullah - ) وس لم آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ص لى. He drank and did evil. He started his
kingdom with the killing of the Shahid al-Hussain ( )عن ہ یرض ئ ﷲ تع الand
ended it with the incident of al-Harra (siege of Madina which also makes
him directly liable for Lanah as Sahih Ahadith prove). Hence the people
hated him, he was not blessed in his life and many took up arms against
him after Imam Hussain ( )عن ہ یرض ئ ﷲ تع الsuch as the people of
Madina - they rose for the sake of Allah ( ( ] )یس بحانہ و تع ا لSiyar al Alam
an Nabula, Volume No. 4, Page No. 37-38 )
Ad-Dahabi also wrote - I say: 'When Yazid did to the people of Madina,
what he did, and killed Imam Hussain ( )عن ہ یرض ئ ﷲ تع الand his
brothers and progeny, and Yazid drank alcohol, and performed abominable
things, then the people hated him and rose up against him more than once.
Allah ( )یس بحانہ و تع ا لdid not bless his life and Abu Bilal Mirdas bin Adya
al-Hanzali rose against him.' (Taarikh al-Islam: wa-tabaqat al-mashahir
wa-al-a`lam, Volume 005, Page No. 30)
Jalaluddin Suyuti mentions in his book ‘The History of the Rightly Guided
Caliphs’ (Taarekh ul Khulufaa al-Raashideen); “Nawfal bin Abi al-Faraat
said ‘Once I was with Umar bin Abdul Aziz when a man said in his
presence ‘Yazid, the leader of the believers’. Umar bin Abdul Aziz said [in
shock] ‘Did you call Yazid the Leader of the Believers'? Umar then ordered
for the man to be lashed 20 times”.
Suyuti further writes that in the year 63 H. Yazid was involved in sacking
Madina in killing a generation of the Companions, and in desecrating and
robbing Madinah. Suyuti continues that the Prophet (آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ص لى
)وس لمand his children are pious and virtuous souls.
There are innumerable Quranic verses and Ahadith which clearly state that
Ahle Bait-e-Rasulullah ( )وس لم آل ه و علي ه ﷲ ص لىare pious and virtuous
souls.
All Salafi groups should know that when they declare Yazid was on the right
path and say عن ہ یرض ئ ﷲ تع الwith his name, then they will sure be
standing along with Yazid in front of Allah ( )یس بحانہ و تع ا لon the Day of
Judgment and their judgment will be done along with him. They should
also know who stands a good chance to enter heaven - Imam Hussain (رض ئ
)عن ہ یلﷲ تع اor Yazid.

Dr. Naik has been banned from entering UK and Canada since June 2010
for his controversial speeches. Earlier, on October 30, 2009 the Uttar
Pradesh Government banned his entry and lectures in Allahabad, Kanpur,
Lucknow and other cities in UP State, India, for the same reason.
Lately, Dr. Naik is playing the role of a political activist and a fighter in
world politics. He says -
Quote - "If Osmana Bin Laden is fighting with the enemies of Islam, I am
for him. If he is terrorizing the terrorist; if he is terrorizing the biggest
terrorist - America, I am with him. Every Muslim should be terrorist. If a
Muslim is terrorizing the terrorist, he is following Islam." - Unquote. View
this disturbing video clip.
This kind of political activism is not good even for Muslims. How can you
excite masses to fight with other countries even if it is established that
injustices are done by them? This kind of incitements may create great
disorder in the world and may lead to bloodshed on streets.
We strongly believe that we can change the course of events in the world by
explaining to the people the virtues of tolerance, peace and love among
human beings.
It is important that Dr. Naik changes his disturbing rhetoric in public and
stop inciting young men and women to fight with people in power in other
countries. He can always express his opinion against injustice done to
Muslims in the name of terrorism by certain countries in the world. But he
should concentrate to change this trend by changing the public opinion in
those countries so that they elect honest peace loving Governments. This
process may be tiresome and long, but this is the permanent solution to
injustice in the world.
Alas, Dr. Naik could not use properly the important gifts of Allah (س بحانہ و
)یتع ا ل- exceptional memory, intelligence and debating skills. He thought
he can understand Islam by memorizing books on his own.
Our intention behind writing this Article is not to hurt the feelings of Dr.
Zakir Naik, his associates or anyone else. If someone feels that the
information in the Article hurts his feelings, we regret it profoundly because
this is not our intention. We strongly believe that the information will
definitely provide an opportunity to all concerned to correct, for their own
good and for the good of Muslim community in the world.
