Sleeping and missing salaat al-fajr

Sleeping and missing salaat al-fajr

A brother complained: "I miss salaat al-Ffjr on most days, and I hardly ever pray it at the right time. Usually I do not wake up until after the sun has risen, or at best I wake up after the time for praying fajr in jamaa'ah. I have tried to wake up at the right time, with no success. What is the solution to this problem?"

All praise be to Allaah. The solution to this problem, like others, has two aspects: theoretical and practical.

The theoretical aspect may be further broken down into two points:

(1) The Muslim should know the great status of salaat al-fajr in the sight of Allaah, may He be glorified. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Whoever prays the dawn prayer in congregation, it is as if he had prayed the whole night long." (Muslim, p. 454, no. 656; al-Tirmidhi, 221).

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) also said:

"

The most burdensome prayers for the hypocrites are salaat al-'isha' and salaat al-fajr, but if they only knew what they contain, they would come even if they had to crawl." (Reported by Imaam Ahmad, al-Musnad, 2/424; Saheeh al-Jaami', 133).

"

Whoever prays fajr is under the protection of Allaah. Do not put yourselves in a situation where Allaah has to call you to account for your negligence." (Reported by al-Tabaraani, 7/267; Saheeh al-Jaami', no. 6344).

"

Angels come to you in shifts by night and by day. They meet at salaat al-fajr and salaat al-'asr, then those who had stayed with you at night ascend, and are asked by the One Who knows better than they: 'How did you find My servants?' They say, 'We left them when they were praying, and we came to them when they were praying.'" (Reported by al-Bukhaari, al-Fath, 2/33).

"

The best of prayers in the sight of Allaah is the dawn prayer on Friday, in congregation." (Reported by Abu Na'eem in al-Hilyah, 7/207, and in al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, 1566).

According to a saheeh hadeeth: "Whoever prays al-Bardayn will enter Paradise." (Reported by al-Bukhaari, al-Fath, 2/52). Al-Bardayn are fajr and 'asr.

(2) The Muslim should understand the seriousness of missing salaat al-fajr. This is explained by the hadeeth already quoted:

"

The most burdensome prayers for the hypocrites are salaat al-'isha' and salaat al-Fajr…"

In al-Saheeh, it is reported that Ibn 'Umar (may Allaah be pleased with them both) said: "If we did not see a person at fajr and 'isha' prayers, we would think badly of him." (Reported by al-Tabaraani in al-Mu'jam al-Kabeer, 12/271. Al-Haythami said, the men of al-Tabaraani are muwaththaqoon (trustworthy). al-Majma', 2/40). They thought badly of a person who was absent from these two prayers because regular performance of them is an indication of a person's faith and a measure of his sincerity. Other prayers may be easier to do because they are more convenient to a person's circumstances and fit in with his work and his sleep, but only those who are determined and sincere, people whom one hopes are good people, will be able to pray fajr and 'isha' regularly in congregation.

Another hadeeth which indicates the seriousness of missing salaat al-fajr is: "Whoever prays fajr is under the protection of Allaah. Do not put yourselves in a situation where Allaah has to call you to account for your negligence, because whoever finds himself in this situation will be sorted out and then thrown on his face in the Fire of Hell." (Reported by Muslim, p. 454).

These two points are sufficient to guarantee that the Muslim's heart will burn with the concern to ensure that he does not miss fajr. The first motivates him to strive to earn the reward for fajr, and the second acts as a warning that will deter him from committing the sin of negligence.

The practical aspect of dealing with this problem includes a number of steps which the Muslim can take in order to get used to performing salaat al-fajr regularly in congregation. These steps include:

Sleeping early. According to a saheeh hadeeth, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to dislike sleeping before 'isha' and talking afterwards. The Muslim should not sleep before salaat al-'isha' because it is obvious that most of those who sleep before it will spend the rest of the night feeling so tired and heavy that it will be as if they are ill.

Also, the Muslim should not talk after 'isha', and the scholars have explained the reason why doing so is disliked: it is because doing so leads to people staying up late, which in turns leads to the fear that they will sleep and miss qiyaam al-layl, or the correct or preferred time for fajr prayer.

The kind of talk that is disliked after 'isha', as the commentators explain, is that in which there is no clear benefit, but if there is some benefit – such as studying and gaining knowledge, learning stories of righteous people, speaking to a guest, spending time with one's wife and family, speaking to travellers and taking care of them and their luggage, or any other permissible reason – then there is nothing wrong with it. This has no connection with the reasons for which many people stay up late nowadays, to do wrong and commit sin! So the Muslim should sleep early, so that he can wake up refreshed to pray fajr and avoid the kind of late nights that make him too tired to get up and pray fajr in congregation.

It is a fact that people differ with regard to their need for sleep, so it is not possible to dictate a set number of hours that people should sleep, but each person should stick to the time that will give him enough sleep to wake up refreshed for salaat al-fajr. If a person knows from experience that sleeping after 11 p.m., for example, will mean that he cannot get up for fajr, then from an Islamic point of view he should not sleep any later than that… and so on.

Making sure that one is clean (taahir) and reciting adhkaar (prayers) before sleeping. This helps a person to get up for fajr.

Having a sincere intention and being determined, when going to sleep, that one will get up for fajr. But a person who goes to sleep hoping that the alarm will not go off, and that no one will come and wake him up, will not – with such a corrupt intention – be able to get up to pray fajr whilst he still has this bad intention.

Remembering Allaah as soon as one wakes up. Some people may initially wake up, then they go back to sleep again. But if a person remembers Allaah straight after waking up, this will loosen one of the knots of Shaytaan, and will motivate him to get up. When he performs wudoo', his determination becomes stronger, and Shaytaan is driven further away, and when he prays, his shaytaan is defeated, his balance (of good deeds) becomes heavier, and he will feel happy and energetic.

Seeking help from one's family and friends to pray fajr, and encouraging one another in this regard. This is essential, and is undoubtedly included in the words of Allaah (interpretation of the meanings):

"…

Help you one another in al-birr and al-taqwa (virtue, righteousness and piety)…" [al-Maa'idah 5:2]

"

By al-'asr (time). Verily! Man is in loss, except those who believe and do righteous good deeds, and recommend one another to the truth and recommend one another to patience." [al-'Asr 103:1-3]

The Muslim should encourage his wife, for example by waking her up to pray fajr, and she should encourage him, no matter how tired and exhausted he may be. Children should also seek their father's help to wake up, so he can wake them when it is time for the prayer. No father should say "They have exams, they are tired, let them sleep, poor kids." It is a mistake to think that be doing this one is being a kind and merciful parent; true parental mercy means that the father wakes them up to worship Allaah. "And enjoin al-salaah (the prayer) on your family, and be patient in offering them (the prayers)…" [Ta-Ha 20:132 – interpretation of the meaning].

Just as family members should help and encourage one another to pray fajr, so brothers in Islam can also help one another. For example, university students living in the same residence or neighbours in the same neighbourhood can help one another by knocking on a neighbour's door to wake him for prayer and helping him to worship Allaah.

Praying to Allaah to help him to wake up to pray fajr in congregation. Du'aa' is one of the greatest sources of strength and success in all things.

Using various means of being woken up, such as alarm clocks. These should be put in the most appropriate place. Some people put the alarm clock next to their head, and when it rings, they turn if off at once and go straight back to sleep. Such a person should put the clock a little further away, so that he can feel that it is really waking him up.

One can also arrange to receive alarm calls from the telephone company, and no Muslim should think that it is too much to pay for this service if he needs it, because this is spending in the way of Allaah, and waking up to obey the command of Allaah cannot be measured in terms of worldly wealth.

Throwing water in the face of the person who is sleeping. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) praised the man who gets up at night to pray, and wakes his wife, and when she refuses to get up, he throws water in her face; and he praised the woman who gets up at night to pray, and wakes her husband, and when he refuses to get up, she throws water in his face. (Reported by Imaam Ahmad in al-Musnad, 2/250; Saheeh al-Jaami', 3494).

Throwing water in a person's face is one of the means of waking a person for prayer that is prescribed by sharee'ah. In fact it is quite refreshing and energizing. Some people may become enraged when woken in this manner, and they may shout and swear and issue threats, so the person who is seeking to wake another should employ wisdom and patience, and remember that the pens are lifted from the record of one who is sleeping (i.e., his deeds are not being recorded while he is asleep) – so he should put up with any bad treatment, and not let this put him off trying to wake people up for prayer.

Not sleeping alone. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) forbade any man to sleep alone. (Reported by Imaam Ahmad in al-Musnad, 2/91; al-Silsilah al-Saheehah, no. 60). Perhaps the wisdom behind this prohibition is that a person could sleep too long if there is no-one to wake him up for prayer.

Not sleeping in remote places where it would not occur to anyone that someone could be sleeping there, such as a person sleeping on the roof of a house without telling his family where he is, or sleeping in a remote part of the house or student residence, so that no-one will know to wake him for prayer, but everyone will think that he is in the mosque when in fact he is fast asleep. Anyone who needs to sleep in a remote place should tell the people around him where he will be so that they can come and wake him.

Being lively and active upon waking. One should get up straightaway, and not wake up in stages, as some people do. A person could be woken up several times, and each time he gets up, but when his friend leaves, he goes back to bed. Waking up in stages usually ends in failure, and the only way to prevent falling asleep again is to get up straight away.

Not setting the alarm too early. If a person knows that there is still a long time to go until the time of the prayer, he may think, "I still have time, let me sleep a little more…" Everyone should know how to handle himself and avoid this situation.

Lighting a lamp when waking up – or, in our modern times, switching on the light. This has the effect of dispelling sleepiness.

Not staying up late, even to pray qiyaam al-layl. Some people may stay up late to pray qiyaam al-layl, then fall asleep a few minutes before fajr and be unable to wake up for the prayer. This happens a lot in Ramadaan – people stay up late and sleep a little while before fajr, so they miss the prayer. No doubt this is a grave error, because fard (obligatory) prayer should take precedence over naafil (supererogatory) prayer. So what about those who stay up late not to pray but to commit sin, or at best to do permissible things? The Shaytaan may make the idea of staying up late to discuss important matters attractive to some daa'iyahs (Islamic workers), then they sleep late and miss the prayer, thus losing much more than they gained.

Not eating too much before going to sleep. Eating too much makes one sleep deeply. The one who eats a lot gets very tired, and sleeps a lot, thus losing a lot. So one should try to eat lightly in the evening.

Warning about the misinterpretation of the sunnah to lie down after praying the sunnah of fajr. Some people may have heard the hadeeth in which the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "When any one of you has prayed, let him lie down on his right side." (Reported by al-Tirmidhi, no. 420; Saheeh al-Jaami', 642). It was also reported that when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) had prayed the sunnah of fajr, he would lie down, then Bilaal would call him to prayer, and he would stand up to pray. People may have heard these ahaadeeth, and be keen to follow this proven sunnah, but they do not understand how to do it properly. So a person may pray the sunnah of fajr, then lie down on his right side, and fall fast asleep until the sun rises. This is because of a lack of proper understanding. The lying down is not for the purpose of sleeping, and Bilaal used to come and tell the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) when it was time to pray. Moreover, as was reported by Imaam Ahmad and Ibn Hibbaan in a saheeh hadeeth, if the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) wanted to rest before fajr, he would put his head on his right palm, propped up on his elbow. (Reported by Ahmad in al-Musnad, 5/298; Saheeh al-Jaami', no. 4752). This kind of resting prevents one from falling fast asleep, because in this case one's head is propped up on one's palm and elbow, and will drop if one dozes off, thus waking one up again. In addition to this, Bilaal was entrusted with the responsibility of waking the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) for the fajr prayer.

Praying qiyaam al-layl late in the night, just before fajr, so that when one finishes witr, the call for fajr prayer is given, making the worship continuous. The night prayer should be offered during the last third of the night – which is the preferred time – and immediately followed by the fajr prayer, whilst one is feeling awake and energetic.

Following the example of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) in lying down to sleep. So a person should lie on his right side, placing his right cheek on his right hand. This position makes it easy to wake up. The best guidance is the guidance of Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and this is better than sleeping in any other position which may make it difficult to wake up.

Helping oneself by taking a nap during the day, because this will help a person by making him need less sleep at night.

Not sleeping after 'asr or maghrib, because this will make a person sleep late, and whoever sleeps late will find it difficult to wake up.

Finally, sincere devotion to Allaah is the best thing to motivate a person to get up for prayer, because Allaah is the One Who is controlling all means of help. If a person has that true sincerity and his heart is burning with devotion to Allaah, then Allaah will help him to get up to pray fajr in congregation, even if he goes to sleep only a few moments before fajr.

This sincerity and devotion may cause some very enthusiastic people to find unusual ways to help themselves to wake up to pray, which is a sign of their eagerness and keenness. One of them may set a number of alarm clocks to wake him up, setting each one a few minutes later than the other, so that if he turns the first one off, the next one will wake him a few moments later, and so on. Another may tie a string to his wrist, with the other end dangling from his window, so that when one of his friends passes by on his way to the mosque, he can pull on the string and wake him for fajr prayer.

See what can be achieved with sincerity and determination, may Allaah guide you! But the bitter truth is that weakness of faith and lack of sincerity are widespread among people nowadays, as we can see from the small numbers of people to be found praying in the mosques at fajr, despite the fact that there are so many people living around the mosques in many neighbourhoods.

But no doubt there are people who sleep so heavily that it is almost like an illness, and they may be excused, because the matter is beyond their control. People in this situation should turn to Allaah for help, and do everything that they possibly can, and visit the doctor, to try to find a cure.

Finally, a word about a well known phenomenon: some people claim that there is a hadeeth which says that the person who wants to get up for fajr should recite the last part of Soorat al-Kahf before sleeping, and have the intention in his heart to get up at a certain hour, and this will make him get up at that time. They claim that this is a tried and tested method. Our response is that there is no such saheeh hadeeth, and this carries no weight whatsoever. The best guidance is the guidance of Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).

سورۃ الدخان میں ذکر کی گئي رات سے کیا مقصود ہے ؟ کیا یہ شعبان والی رات ہی ہے ، یا لیلۃ القدر ؟

سورۃ الدخان میں ذکر کی گئي رات سے کیا مقصود ہے ؟ کیا یہ شعبان والی رات ہی ہے ، یا لیلۃ القدر ؟
 
پندرہ شعبان کی کیا اہمیت ہے ؟ کیا یہی لیلۃ القدر ہے جس میں ہرشخص کے سال بھرکے انجام کا فیصلہ کیا جاتا ہے ؟
سورۃ الدخان میں ذکر کی گئي رات سے کیا مقصود ہے ؟ کیا یہ شعبان والی رات ہی ہے ، یا لیلۃ القدر ؟

الحمد للہ
نصف شعبان یعنی پندرہ شعبان کی رات میں باقی عام راتوں کی طرح ہی ہے ، نبی صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم اس کا کوئي ثبوت نہیں ملتا کہ اس رات لوگوں کے انجام ؛یا تقادیر کا فیصلہ کیا جاتا ہے ۔

آپ مزید تفصیل کے لیے سوال نمبر ( 8907 ) کے جواب کا مطالعہ ضرور کریں ۔

اللہ سبحانہ وتعالی کا فرمان ہے :

{ یقینا ہم نے اسے بابرکت رات میں نازل فرمایا ہے ، بیشک ہم ڈرانے والے ہیں ، اس رات میں ہر ایک مضبوط کام کا فیصلہ کیا جاتا ہے } الدخان ( 3 - 4 )

ابن جریر طبری رحمہ اللہ تعالی کہتے ہیں کہ : اس میں وارد شدہ رات کے بارہ میں اہل تفسیر نے اختلاف کیا ہے کہ یہ سال کی کونسی رات ہے ، بعض تواسے لیلۃ القدر ہی قرار دیتے ہیں ، اورقتادہ رحمہ اللہ تعالی عنہ سے یہی منقول ہے کہ اس سے مراد لیلۃ القدر ہی ہے ۔

اوردوسرے اہل علم کا کہنا ہے کہ : نصف شعبان کی رات ہے ، لیکن اس میں صحیح قول لیلۃ القدر والا ہی ہے ، یہ ایسے ہی ہے کیونکہ اللہ تعالی کا فرمان ہے : { بے شک ہم ڈرانے والے ہیں } ۔ دیکھیں تفسیر طبری ( 11 / 221 )۔

اوراللہ تعالی کا فرمان :

{ اس میں ہر مضبوط کام کا فیصلہ کیا جاتا ہے } حافظ ابن حجر رحمہ اللہ تعالی نے صحیح بخاری کی شرح فتح الباری میں کہا ہے کہ :

معنی یہ ہے کہ اس رات میں اس سال کے معاملات کومقدر کیا جاتا ہے ، اس لیے کہ اللہ تعالی کا فرمان ہے :

{ اس رات میں ہر مضبوط کام کا فیصلہ کیا جاتا ہے } امام نووی رحمہ اللہ نے اپنی کلام ہی اس سے شروع کرتے ہوئے کہا ہے : لیلۃ القدر اس لیے کہا جاتا ہے کہ اس میں فرشتے اقدار کولکھتے ہیں ، اس لیے کہ فرمان باری تعالی ہے :

{ اس میں ہرمضبوط کام کافیصلہ کیا جاتا ہے } ۔

عبدالرزاق اوردوسرے مفسرین نے صحیح اسانید کے ساتھ اسے مجاھد ، عکرمہ اورقتادہ وغیرہ سے روایت کیا ہے ۔

توربشتی کا قول ہے ، یہاں القدر دال پر جزم کے ساتھ وارد ہوئي ہے ، اگرچہ القدردال پر زبر کے ساتھ شائع اورمشہور ہے جس کا معنی فیصلے کا قصد وارادہ کرنا ہے تواس سے یہ معلوم ہوتا ہے کہ اس سے یہ مراد نہيں بلکہ اس سے توجوفیصلے ہوچکے ہیں اس برس میں ان کا اظہار اورتحدید مراد ہے تا کہ جوکچھ ان کی طرف بھیجا جارہا ہے وہ مقدار کے ساتھ حاصل ہو ۔

اورلیلۃ القدر کی بہت عظيم فضیلت ہے اوراس کے لیے ہے جواس میں عمل کرے اورعبادت کرنے میں بھی کوشش کرے ۔

اللہ سبحانہ وتعالی کا فرمان ہے :

{ یقینا ہم نے اسے قدر والی رات میں نازل کیا ہے ،اور توکیا سمجھے کہ قدر والی رات کیا ہے ؟ قدروالی رات ایک ہزار مہینوں سے بہتر ہے ، اس میں ہر کام کوسرانجام دینے کو اپنے رب کے حکم سے فرشتے اور روح جبریل علیہ السلام اترتے ہیں ، یہ رات سرا سر سلامتی کی ہوتی ہے ، اورفجر کے طلوع ہونے تک رہتی ہے } سورۃ القدر ۔

لیلۃ القدر کی فضیلت میں بہت ساری احادیث وارد ہيں جن میں مندرجہ ذیل حدیث بھی شامل ہے :

ابوھریرہ رضي اللہ تعالی عنہ بیان کرتے ہیں کہ رسول اکرم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم نے فرمایا :

( جس نے بھی لیلۃ القدر میں ایمان اوراجروثواب کی نیت سے قیام کیا اس کے پچھلے تمام گناہ معاف کردیے جاتے ہیں ، اورجس نے بھی ایمان اوراجروثواب کی نیت سے رمضان المبارک کے روزے رکھے تواس کے پچھلے تمام گناہ معاف کردیے جاتے ہیں ) صحیح بخاری کتاب الصوم حدیث نمبر ( 1768 ) ۔

واللہ اعلم .

عبادت كے ليے نصف شعبان كى رات مخصوص كرن  ( 8907
 
ميں نے ايك كتاب ميں پڑھا كہ نصف شعبان كا روزہ ركھنا بدعت ہے، اور ايك دوسرى كتاب ميں لكھا تھا كہ نصف شعبان كا روزہ ركھنا مستحب ہے... برائے مہربانى يہ بتائيں كہ اس كے متعلق قطعى حكم كيا ہے ؟

الحمد للہ:

نصف شعبان كى فضيلت ميں كوئى بھى صحيح اور مرفوع حديث ثابت نہيں، حتى كہ فضائل ميں بھى ثابت نہيں، بلكہ اس كے متعلق كچھ تابعين سے بعض مقطوع آثار وارد ہيں، اور ان احاديث ميں موضوع يا ضعيف احاديث شامل ہيں جو اكثر جہالت والے علاقوں ميں پھيلى ہوئى ہيں.

ان ميں مشہور يہ ہے كہ اس رات عمريں لكھى جاتى ہيں اور آئندہ برس كے اعمال مقرر كيے جاتے ہيں.... الخ.

اس بنا پر اس رات كو عبادت كے ليے بيدار ہونا جائز نہيں اور نہ ہى پندرہ شعبان كا روزہ ركھنا جائز ہے، اور اس رات كو عبادت كے ليے مخصوص كرنا بھى جائز نہيں ہے، اكثر جاہل لوگوں كا اس رات عبادت كرنا معتبر شمار نہيں ہو گا "

واللہ تعالى اعلم

الشيخ ابن جبرين حفظہ اللہ

اگر كوئى شخص عام راتوں كى طرح اس رات بھى قيام كرنا چاہے ـ اس ميں كوئى اضافى اور زائد كام نہ ہو اور نہ ہى اس كى تخصيص كى گئى ہو ـ تو جس طرح وہ عام راتوں ميں عبادت كرتا تھا اس ميں بھى جائز ہے.

اور اسى طرح پندرہ شعبان كو روزے كے ليے مخصوص كرنا صحيح نہيں، ليكن اگر وہ اس بنا پر روزہ ركھ رہا ہے كہ يہ ايام بيض يعنى ہر ماہ كى تيرہ چودہ اور پندرہ تاريخ كو روزہ ركھنا مشروع ہے، يا پھر وہ جمعرات يا سوموار كا روزہ ركھتا تھا اور پندرہ شعبان اس كے موافق ہوئى تو اس اعتبار سے روزہ ركھنے ميں كوئى حرج نہيں، ليكن اس ميں اس كا اعتقاد نہيں ہونا چاہيے كہ اس سے اسے اجروثواب زيادہ حاصل ہو گا.

واللہ اعلم .

ASAD MADANI



 
Bid'ah of 15 Sha'baan
 
What is Shab e Baraat that is celebrated by many South Asian Muslims?

 Praise be to Allaah.
Some Muslims celebrate the middle of Sha'baan, fasting on that day and spending that night in prayer (qiyaam). There is a hadeeth concerning that which is not saheeh, hence the scholars regarded celebrating this day as an innovation (bid 'ah).  
 
Muhammad 'Abd al-Salaam al-Shuqayri said: Imam al-Fatni said in Tadhkirat al-Mawdoo'aat: Among the innovations that have been introduced on "Laylat an-Nusf"  (mid-Sha'baan) is al-Salaat al-Alfiyyah, which is one hundred rak'ahs in which Soorat al-Ikhlaas is recited ten times in each rak'ah, offered in congregation; they pay more attention to this than to Jumu'ah and Eid prayers, although there is no report concerning it, except da'eef (weak) and mawdoo' (fabricated) reports, and we should not be deceived by the fact that these reports were quoted by the authors of al-Qoot and al-Ihya' and others, nor should we be deceived by what was mentioned in Tafseer al-Tha'labi, that it is Laylat al-Qadr. End quote.  
 
Al-'Iraaqi said: The hadeeth about the prayer on Laylat al-Nisf (mid-Sha'baan) is false. Ibn al-Jawzi narrated it in al-Mawdoo'aat (which is a compilation of fabricated hadeeths):  
Chapter on the hadeeth, prayer and supplication on Laylat al-Nisf:
 
The hadeeth, "When the night of 'nisf Sha'baan' (mid-Sha'baan) comes, spend the night in prayer and fast on that day" was narrated by Ibn Maajah from 'Ali. Muhashiyyah said: (It was also narrated) in al-Zawaa'id. Its isnaad is da'eef (weak) because of the weakness of Ibn Abi Basrah, of whom Ahmad and Ibn Ma'een said: He fabricates hadeeth. End quote.  
 
Praying six rak'ahs on Laylat al-Nisf with the intention of warding off calamity, having a long life and being independent of people, and reciting Ya-Seen and offering du'aa' in between that -- there is no doubt that this is something that has been introduced into the religion and is contrary to the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him). The commentator on al-Ihya' said: This prayer is well known in the books of later Sufi masters, but I have not seen any saheeh report in the Sunnah to support it and the connected du'aa'. Rather this is the action of some shaykhs. Our companions said: It is makrooh to gather on any of the nights mentioned in the mosques or elsewhere. Al-Najm al-Ghayti said, describing spending the night of al-Nisf min Sh'baan (mid-Sha'baan) praying in congregation: That was denounced by most of the scholars of the Hijaz, including 'Ata' and Ibn Abi Mulaykah, the fuqaha' of Madinah and the companions of Maalik. They said: All of that is an innovation (bid'ah) and there is no report to suggest that the Prophet spent that night in praying in congregation or that his Companions did that either. Al-Nawawi said: The prayers of Rajab and Sha'baan are two reprehensible innovations. End quote from al-Sunan wa'l-Mubtada'aat, p. 144  
 
Al-Fatni (may Allah have mercy on him) said, after the comments quoted above: The common folk are so infatuated with this prayer that they stored up a lot of fuel for it and many evils resulted from it, and many transgressions are committed which we do no need to describe. (It is so bad that) the close friends of Allah feared His punishment and fled into the wilderness. The first time this prayer occurred was in Bayt al-Maqdis (Jerusalem) in 448 AH. Zayd ibn Aslam said: We never saw any of our shaykhs or fuqaha' saying that Laylat al-Baraa'ah (15 Sha'baan) had any superiority over other nights. Ibn Dihyah said: The hadeeths about the prayer on Laylat al-Baraa'ah are fabricated and one has an interruption in the isnaad. Anyone who acts upon a report which is known to be false is a servant of the Shaytaan.
End quote from Tadhkirat al-Mawdoo'aat by al-Fatni, p. 45  
 
See: al-Mawdoo'aat by Ibn al-Jawzi, 2/127; al-Manaar al-Muneef fil Saheeh wa'l-Da'eef by Ibn al-Qayyim, p. 98; al-Fawaa'id al-Majmoo'ah by al-Shawkaani, p. 51  
Some people use the word al-Sha'baaniyyah to refer to the last days of Sha'baan, and say, "These are the days of bidding farewell to food," and they take advantage of these days to eat a lot before Ramadan begins. Some scholars say that this idea was originally taken from the Christians, who used to do that as their fasting period (Lent) approached.  
 
To sum up, there is no celebration in Sha'baan and there is no special act of worship to be performed in the middle of it or during the last days of the month. Doing that is an innovation that has been introduced into the religion.  
 

 

SOME MISCONCEPTIONS REGARDING SHABAN & SHAB E BARAT
 
Misconception # 1:
The night of the 15th of Shabaan should be singled out for worship, prayer, etc.
 
Clarification:
Our best example and role model is the Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alayhi wa Sallam) and he never, ever singled out this night for worship or qiyaam nor did his Sahaba.
 


Shaykh Ibn Baaz said:"There is no saheeh hadeeth concerning the night of the fifteenth of Shabaan. All the ahaadeeth that have been narrated concerning that are mawdoo (fabricated) and daeef (weak), and have no basis. There is nothing special about this night, and no recitation of Quraan or prayer, whether alone or in congregation, is specified for this night. What some of the scholars have said about it being special is a weak opinion. It is not permissible to single it out for any special actions. This is the correct view."
(Fataawa Islamiyyah, 4/511)

Misconception # 2:
There are special prayers to be offered on this night.
 
Clarification:
The truth of the matter is that there are NO special prayers to be offered on this night specifically. And all those ahaadeeth giving you long lists of special formulas that are "supposed to guarantee you Allaahs forgiveness and Jannah" are all fabricated, false and innovations in our Deen. If there were such prayers, the Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alayhi wa Sallam) would have told us about them and we would have had evidence of him and the Sahaba doing it.

Misconception # 3:
Allaah descends to the first heavens on this night to forgive us.
 
Clarification:
Allaah's descending to the first heaven does not only happen on the night of the fifteenth of Shabaan. Rather it happens every single night of the year.

 
The Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alayhi wa Sallam) said:
"Every night when it is the last third of the night, our Lord, the Superior, the Blessed, descends to the nearest heaven and says: Is there anyone to invoke Me that I may respond to his invocation? Is there anyone to ask Me so that I may grant him his request? Is there anyone asking My forgiveness so that I may forgive him?. " (Bukhaari)


 
Thus, when Abd-Allaah ibn al-Mubaarak was asked about the descent of Allaah on the night of the fifteenth of Shabaan, he said to the one who asked him: "O weak one! The night of the fifteenth?! He descends every night!"�

http://www.islam-qa.com/en/ref/49678
 
Misconception # 4:
This is the night when our fate, lifespan, and provisions are decreed.
 
Clarification:  
Some people think that the "blessed night" (laylatim-mubarakah) mentioned in Surah ad-Dukhaan (44): 3, refers to the night of 15th Shabaan, when Allah decrees our lifespan, provisions and fate. In fact, they even pray 6 rakahs, 2 for each of these things. However, all that is fabricated and far, far away from the Sunnah. And, in reality, the "blessed night" mentioned in Surah ad-Dukhaan, actually is referring to Laylatul Qadr that comes in Ramadhaan. (Tafseer Ibn Kathir of Surah al-Qadr)
 
Misconception # 5:
One should fast on the day of the fifteenth.
 
Clarification:
Here again, there is no saheeh reports that tell us that the Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alayhi wa Sallam) or his Sahaabah ever picked this day specifically to fast. The Sunnah of the Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alayhi wa Sallam) was to fast most of this month and not just the 15th. However, if the fifteenth of Shabaan coincides with a Monday or Thursday, or with the three white days or if a person is generally fasting, without associating seeking extra rewards to fasting this specific day, then it is allowed. (Sheikh Muhammed Salih Al-Munajjid)

Misconception # 6:
This is the night when the souls of departed ones return to their families.
 
Clarification:
Here again, some people misunderstand the ayaat in Surah al-Qadr and think that the "sending down of the Ruh" as mentioned in this Surah refers to the souls of dead people returning to see their families, even though it refers to Jibreel (Tafseer Ibn Kathir). And that is why we see women preparing the sweets, the Halwas and other "goodies" for the souls of their loved ones.
 
Not only is that in itself an erroneous, deviant belief and bidah, but to believe that the souls of the dead can return back to the world and meet/see their relatives is also totally incorrect and false. The teachings of the Quraan and the Sunnah clearly state that the souls of the dead do not return back to the world. Besides, they dont even eat the Halwas. It is actually you who eats it!

Misconception # 7:
Visiting graveyards especially this night is something good.


Clarification:

Although the Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alayhi wa Sallam) encouraged visiting graves, he forbade singling out any day or night for any kinds of good deeds if it is not prescribed in the Shareeah. And he did not specifically visit the graveyard on the night of the 15th of Shabaan. The hadeeth of Aisha that mentions that the Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alayhi wa Sallam) visited the graveyard this night is not authentic and thus does not have any proof for visiting graves specifically on this night of Shabaan.




Misconception # 8:

Even if the ahaadeeth about worship on this night are weak,
one can still do it.


Clarification:
The correct scholarly view is that weak ahaadeeth should not be followed at all, even if they speak of righteous deeds or of targheeb and tarheeb (promises and warnings). The saheeh reports are sufficient and the Muslim has no need to follow the daeef reports.

Shaykh Ahmad Shaakir said: "There is no difference between rulings or righteous deeds; we do not take any of them from daeef reports, rather no one has the right to use any report as evidence unless it is proven to be soundly narrated from the Messenger of Allaah (Sal Allaahu Alayhi wa Sallam) in a saheeh or hasan hadeeth."

Should he fast on the fifteenth of Shabaan even if the hadeeth is da'eef?
http://www.islam-qa.com/en/ref/49675
 



Misconception # 9:

Look at all those people doing it. How can they all be wrong?


Clarification:
The Muslim is supposed to refer to Allaah and His Messenger (Sal Allaahu Alayhi wa Sallam) Sunnah, if there is any confusion or dispute about matters and NOT what the rest of the world is doing.
 
"O you who believe! Obey Allaah and obey the Messenger and those of you who are in authority. (And) if you differ in anything amongst yourselves, refer it to Allaah and His Messenger, if you believe in Allaah and in the Last Day. That is better and more suitable for final determination [al-Nisaa 4:59]
 
Shaykh Ibn Jibreen said: "These reports (about worship and fasting an the 15th of Shabaan) became very well known in some countries which were overwhelmed by ignorance; One should not be deceived by the large numbers of ignorant people who do these things."
 



The REAL Sunnah regarding Shabaan:
 
If you truly and sincerely want to please Allaah and do deeds that will be acceptable to Him, then follow the REAL Sunnah of the Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alayhi wa Sallam). Here is what is proven in the authentic sunnah:
 
1. Fast most of this month as much as you can.
 Aaishah RA said: "I never saw the Messenger of Allaah fasting for an entire month except in Ramadaan, and I never saw him fast more than he did in Shabaan." (Bukhaari, Muslim).
 

2. However, if you are weak or do not fast habitually and feel that this nafil fasting may be a hindrance to your obligatory fasting in the month of Ramadhaan, then the person may stop the nafil fasting in the last few days of this month. And for that person, the Prophet (Sal Allaahu Alayhi wa Sallam) said:
"When Shabaan is half over, do not fast." (saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi)
 
3. If you have fasts left over from last Ramadhaan to make up, then hurry up and do so in this month of Shabaan before the next Ramadhaan comes. It is not permissible to delay missed fasts until after the following Ramadhaan, except in cases of necessity (such as a valid excuse that continues between the two Ramadaans).
 
Aaishah RA said: "It used to be that I had days to make up for Ramadhaan and I would not be able to do so except in Shabaan." [Bukhaari]
 
 
And Allah knows  the best.

Shab-e-Barat Aur Uski Haqeeqat...! !!






Shab-e-Barat Aur Uski Haqeeqat...! !!

Shaban Maheene Mein 15th Shab Ko Shab-E-Barat Ke Naam Se Yaad Kiya Jata Hai ...!! Ulma-e-Soo Is Raat Ke Liye Shab-e-Qadr Jaisi Fazilate Bayan Karte Hain... Yeh Aqeeda Rakha Jata Hai Ke Is Raat Poore Saal Main Hone Wale Waqkhyat Ka Faisla Kiya Jata Hai ... Is Raat Infiradi Wa Ijtimayee Ibadato Ka Ah...tmam Kiya Jata Hai ... Atish baziya Ki Jati Hain... Masjido Main Chiragha Kiya Jata Hai ... Bewa Aurte Ye Samajhti Hain Ke Unke Shoharo Ki Roohe Is Raat Aati Hain Isliye Behtreen Qism Ke Pakwan Tayyar Karke Unka INtezar Karti hain ..!!

Shab-E-Barat Ki Fazilat main Quran Ki Yeh Ayat Paish Ki jati Hai ..... " Hamne Is (Quran) Ko Mubarak Raat Main nazil Farmaya , Hum Logo Ko Darane Wale Hain " ( Al-Dukhhan Ayat No.3)
In Ka Yeh Qoul Sarasar Ghalat Wa Bebuniyad Hai Jiski Daleel Yeh Hai ke Allah RabbulAlaameen Ne Is Ayat Main Jis Raat Ko Mubarak Raat Kaha Hai Woh Ramadan Ki Shab-E-Qadr Hai Na Ke Shab-E-Barat. .. Kyonki Yeh Baat Har Musalman Janta Hai Ke Quran Kareem Ka nazool Maha Ramadan main Hua Hai Na Ke Shahban Ke Mahine Main.

Irshad-e-Rabbani Hai "Ramadan To Woh mahina Hai Jisme Quran Majeed Nazil Kiya Gaya " ( Al-Baqra .. Ayat no. 185)

Doosri Jagah RabbulAalaameen Irshad Farmata Hai " Humne Is (Quran Kareem) Ko Shab-E-Qadr Main Nazil Farmaya Tumhe KYa Malum ke Shab-E-Qadr Kya Hai, Shab-E-Qadr Main ek Raat Ki Ibadat Hazar Mahino Ki Ibadat Se Behtar Hai " ( Al-Qadr..Ayat no.1-3)
In Ayaat Se maloom Hua Ke Surah Dukkhan Ki Ayat no. 3 Main Jis Mubarak Raat Ki Taraf Ishara Kiya Gaya Hai Usse Murad Shab-E-Qadr Hai Na Ke Shab-E-Barat. .!!
Shaban Ki 15wi Raat Ki Fazilat Main Jo Bhi Hadeese Bayan Ki Jati Hain Sab Ki Sab Mozoo Ya Zaeef Hain ... Isi Tarhan Is Raat Ki Ibadato ke silsile Main Jo Bhi hadees bayan Ki Jati Hain Woh Sari Mozoo (unAuthentic) Hain..!!

Ek Hadees Hai Jo 15wi Shab Ke Liye Bayan Ki Jati Hai " Rasool Allah SAW ne Farmaya Ke Allah SWT 15wi Shahban Ki Raat Ko Matlah Hokar Mushriq Wa Keena Parwar Ke Siwa Poori Makhlooq Ko Maaf Kar Deta Hai " ( Ibn Ma'aja Silsila Saheeh 1652)
Lekin Is Hadees main Is Raat Ke Liye Makhsoos Ibadat Karne Ki Na Koee Dalee Hai Aur hi Kisi Ibadat Ka Hukum Diya Gaya Hai ..
Aur Jahan Tak Logo Ki Maghfirat Ki Baat Hai Tu Yeh Sirf isi Raat Ke Sath Khas Nahin Hai Balke Yeh To Har Din Hota Hai .. Jaisa Ke Saheeh Hadees Se Sabit Hai Ke..
Allah SWT Har Din Akhri Raat Ke Pehar main Sama Dunia Per Aata Hai AUr Yeh Ailan Karta Hai Ke : Kon Hai Jo Mujhe PUkare Phir Main Uski Dua Ko Qabool Karon, Kaun Hai Jo Mujhse Sawal kare AUr Main Use Doo, Kaun Hai Jo Mujh Se Maghfirat Talab Kare AUr Phir Main uski Maghfirat Kardon "
Isse Malum Hua Ke Gunaho Ki Maghfirat Ka Kaam hamesha Hota Rehta HaiYeh Sirf Shab-e-Barat Ke Sath Khas Nahin...!!
Haqeeqat yeh Hai Ke Shab-E-Barat Ka Islam Se Koee Taulluq Nahin Hai Ise Ijad Karne Wale Raafdi Hain ..!!
Ab Koee Yeh Kahe Ke Hum Is Raat Ibadat Hi To karte Hain To Isme Burayee Kya Hai .. Burayee Ibadat Main Har Giz nahin Hai Burayee Hai is Baat Main Ke Jo Baat Rasool SAW ne Nahin Batayee Woh Hum Kaise Kar SakTe Hain ?
Ek Insan Agar Asr Ke 4 Farzo Ki jagah 5 Parhne Lage To Kya WOh Sahee HOga? Hargiz Nahin Jabke Woh Ek Rakat Namaz Hi ZYada parh Raha Hai Per Rasool Allah SAW ne 4 Bataye Hain To Hum Usse Zyada Ya kam Nahin Kar Sakte...
Isi Tarhan Ibadat Allah SWT ke Yahan WOh Qabool Hogi Jiske Karne Ka Hukum Rasool SAW Ne Diya Hai ...
Aur Shab-e-Barat Ki Ibadat Kisi Bhi Sahee Ahdees Se Sabit Nahin....
Zara Sochiye Ke Agar Yeh Itni Fazilat Wali Raat Hoti To KYa Sahaba ikram Is Raat Ko Ibadat Na Karte? Koee Ek Bhi Wakhiya Sahaba ikram se Sabit Nahin Ke Un Logo Ne Is Raat Ko Khas Ibadat Ki Ho ... Jo Khas Ibadat Ki Raat Hai WOh To Ramadan Ki Shab-e-Qadr Hai Usme Jitni Chahe Ibadat Karein...!!
Ek Baat Yaad Rakhein Ke Allah SWT Us Ibadat Ko Qabool Karta Hai Jisme Niyat Khalis Allah Ki Raza Ki Ho AUr Tareeqa Khalis Rasool Allah Sallallahu Alaiwasallam Ka Ho ..!!

Ek Baat Aur Ki Jaati Hai 15 Tareekh Ko Ke Log Halwa Banate Hain BantTe Hain Apas Main Aur Bahut Sawab Samajhte Hain... Iski Haqeeqat Kya Hai Yeh BHi Dekhlein..!! Halwa Banane Wale iski Daleel Yeh Dete Hain Ke Ghazwa-e-Ohud Main Rasool SAW ke Dandane Mubarak Shaheed Hue The Takleef Ki Wajah Se Aap SAW khana Khane se Qasir The.. Isliye Rasool SAW Ne Halwa Naush Farmaya Tha Aap SAW ki Is Sunnat Per Amal Karte Hue Is Raat Halwa Khori Ki Jati Hai.. Yeh Woh Daleel Hai Jis Per Halwa Khoro Ki Poori Imarat Qayam hai...!!
Tareekhi Aitbar Se Bhi Ye Daleel Bebuniyad Hai.. Isliye Ke Ghazwa-e-Ohud Shawal 3 Hijri Main paish Aya Tha Na Ke Shahban Ke Mahine Main, yeh Kitni Khilafe Aqal Baat Hai ke Dandane Mubarak Maah Shawal Main Shaheed Hon Aur Halwa Khane Ki Sunnat Maah Shahban Main Ada Ki Jaye.. Woh Bhi Sirf Ek Din ? Aur Agar Sunnat Se Itni Mohabbat Hai To Pehle Dant Shaheed Karwain Phir Halwa Khaein..!!
Yeh Aqeeda Ke Roohe Wapas Aati hain Yeh Quran Kareem Ke Khilaf Aqeeda Hai marne Ke Baad Kisi Ki Rooh Dunia Main Wapas Nahin Aati hai ...
Irshad-e-Rabbani Hai
" Aur Inke Peeche Ek Parda Hai Us Din Tak Ke Woh Dubara Uthaye Jayein " ( Al-Momenoon 100) Yani ke Allah SWT ne Rooho Ke Dunia Main Ane Ke Raste Per Rok laga Rakhi Hai !!
Rasool Allah SWT Ka Irshad hai " Qayamat Ke Din Sabse Pehle Main Uthunga " ( Saheeh Bukhari 2412 , Saheeh Muslim 2374)
Ruhon Ke Dunia Main Wapas Ane Ka Aqeeda Butt Parasto Ka Aqeeda hai..!!
Yeh Hai is Raat Ki Haqeeqat Jiski Daleel Na Quran Main Hai Na Ahdees main Aur Na Hi Khulfaye Rashe Deen Ke Dour main ..! phir Hum Kyon Ek Aisi Baat Ke Peeche Lage Hue Hain Jo Deen Ka Hissa Nahin ?
Alhamdolillah Hamara Deen Kamil Hai Rasool Allah Saw Deen Ki Har Baat Bata Kar Gaye Hain Gar Humne Itna Kar Liya Jitna Hamein Bataya Gaya Hai To Insha Allah Hamara Allah Hamse Razi Ho jayga..!!
Kisi Bhi Bidat Ko Chhota Na Samjho Rasool Allah SAW ne Bidat Karne Wale Ko Kaha Hai Ke Woh Hum Main Se nahin ..!!
Farmaye Rasool SAW hai " Jisne Hamare Deen main Koee Nayee CHeez Ijad Ki Jiska Deen Se Koee Taulluq Nahin Hai Tu WOh Mardood Hai " (Saheeh Bukhari 2697)
Ek Aur Hadees Hai "Deen ke Andar Nayee Nayee Cheeze Dakhil Karne Se Baaz Raho Bila-shubha Har Nayee Cheez Bidat Hai Aur Har Bidat Gumrahi Hai " (Abu'daud Kitab Al Sunnah 7064)
Allah Rabbul-Alameen Tamaam Musalmano Ko Huq Baat Qabool Karne Ki Toufeeq Ata Farmaye, Aur Bidat Aur Khurafaat Se Mehfooz Rakhein...

DARUL ULOOM DEOBAND A NEWLY FORMED AND PROGRAMED ISLAM

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvkPutgN6vY&feature=related




DARUL ULOOM DEOBAND A NEWLY FORMED AND PROGRAMED ISLAM
Deoband was found (1880 ) to propagate old sufi ideas in refined way. And to separate themselves from overwhelming popularity of Ahmed Raza Khan, Barelvi (1856--1921). And his the strong sufi ideas.
Deoband was founded by
1) Muhammad Qasim Nanotvi, 1832
2) Muhammad Yaqub Nanautawi,
3) Shah Rafi al-Din,
4) Sayyid Muhammad Abid, 1834
5) Zulfiqar Ali, Shia
6) Fadhl al-Rahman 'Usmani and
7) Rashid Ahmad Gangohi. ( studend fo great sufi Haji Imdadullah Muhaajir Makki)
Haji Imdadullah Muhajir Makki born in Nanauta, the district of Saharanpur in Uttar Pradesh, India on December 31, 1817 - October 18, 1899) was an eminent 'Alim, and Chishti Sufi and great saint.
At the age of eighteen, his bay'at was accepted by Shaikh Moulana Nasiruddin Naqshbandi, from whom he learned the various adhkar of the Naqshbandi silsila.
He withdrew himself from the midst of people and wandered in the wilderness of Punjab.
He would refrain from eating for up to eight days.
Finally, after wandering in the wilderness for six months, in 1260 AH, he saw Prophet Muhammad slaws in a dream.
The Deoband follow the
1) Ash'ari (Abu al-Hasan al-Ash'ari 324 AH / 936 AD). and
2) Maturidi (Muhammad Abu Mansur al-Maturidi 853 AD - 333 AH / 944 AD) schools of aqidah.
In fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence) they primarily follow the Hanafi school of law.
In the spiritual science of Tasawwuf or Sufism (science through which one can travel into the presence of the God,)
They follow the
1) Chishti (Abu Ishaq Shami is one of the first among the Sufi Chishti Order to call himself Chisti, from eastern Iran and shiaism)
2) Naqshbandi, (It associated with Md. Baha ad-din an-Naqshabandi, 717 H, claims continuity of linage from Prophet SLAWS )
3) Qadiri (This derives its name from Abdul-Qadir Gilani (1077--1166 CE) and
4) Suhrawardi (well-known Shahab al-Din Suhrawardi "the Executed" 1153 - 1191CE, the Shia founder of Illuminationism ) orders.
They were mainly formed by British and Indian aid, to combat and defend the dangers of pure Islamic ideology of Quran, Sunnah and Jihaad.
Surath Al Baqraa 2 : 216 and 244 Surath Al Hadj 78 and
Sahi Al Buqaree Vol 001, Bk 2, H 025. And Bk 2 and H 24
And the struggle to take back the lost, Muslim status and state and to make Qualifa by Ahle Hadees. or Salafi or Fundamental followers of islam and Nabi E Kareem SLAWS and Sahaba Ikram RA.

Tablighi Jamaat

It emerged out of the Deobandi sub-school in the Hanafi fiqh, no particular interpretation of Islam has been endorsed since the beginning of movement and they follow sufi islam.

It originated from one the student of Deoband
Muhammad Ilyas al-Kandhlawin in 1926 in Mewat,.
He programed and designed Tabliqee Jamath.
And introduced and stressed on six points.
1) Kalima
2) Namaz (Prayer)
3) Ilm and Zikr
4) Ikram-e-Muslim
5) Ikhlas-e-Niyat
6) Tafrigh-e-Waqt
For this purpose he followed mainly two books
1) Muhammad Zakariya al-Kandahlawi's Tabliqi Nisab
2) Ashraf Ali Thanvi's Baheshti Zewar.
The movement primarily aims at sufi Islamic spiritual reformation, by working hard and, reaching out to Muslims across all social and economic spectra, to bring them closer to the practices of the Hanafi or sufi school of thought, as above stated.
Molana Ashraf 'Alī Thānwī (August 19, 1863 -- July 4, 1943) was the student of Deoband and a Sunni Hanafi scholar.
He wa the discple of Rashid Ahmad Gangohi. And he of Haji Imdadullah Muhajir Makki
Muhammad Zakarīyyā ibn Muhammad Yahyá ibn Muhammad Ismail al-Kandhlawi (February 3, 1898 -- May 24, 1982) was a studen of Deoband and prominent Sunni Muslim scholar.

ILM-E-GHAIB

ILM-E-GHAIB

Kah dijiye ke mujhe maloom nahi ke jiska wada tumse kiya jata hai wo qareeb hai ya mera Rab iske liye door ki muddat muqarar kar rakha hai[25 ], Wo Gaib ka janne wala hai aur apne Gaib par kisi ko matloo{yani zhahir) nahi karta[ 26 ] , Siwaye is Paigamber ko jise wo pasand kar le lekin iske bhi aage piche pahredar muqarar kar deta hai[27 ], isliye ke inko apne Rab ke paigaam pahuncha... dene ka Elm ho jaye, Allah-Taala ne inke Ass-pass ki tamaam chizon ka Aahata kar rakha hai aur har chiz ki ginti ka shumar kar rakha hai[28 ].

{ *Surah-Al-Jinn, ayat-no---25 ,26 ,27 ,28 * }

Tashrih:- matlab ye ke Aazab aur Qayamat ka ilm ye Gaib se taluq rakhta hai, jisko sirf Allah-Taala hi janta hai ke wo qareb hai ya door, Aur Paigamber ko baaz amwaar se matloo kar deta hai(yani kuch kuch bate bata deta hai) aur zahir baat hai ke Allah ke matloo karne se (yani batane se) Paigamber Elm- e-Gaib nahi ho sakta, kyon ki Paigamber bhi agar Elm-e- Gaib hoto phir is par Allah ki Taraf se Gaib ke izhar ka koi matlab hi nahi rahta (yani Gaib ki baten Wahi ke zarya se batane ka koi matlab hi nahi rahta) kyon ke pahle se hi unhe sab maloom hota, Allah-Taala apne Gaib ka izhar issi waqt aur issi Rasool par karta hai jisko pahle se Gaib ka Elm nahi hota, isliye Elm-e-Gaib Sirf Allah hi ki zaat hai, kyon ke wahi Aalim-ul-Gaib hai, jo ho chuka(yani Past) Jo ho raha hai(yani parsent) aur jo Aainda hoga (yani in Future) is sab ka ginti Allah kar rakha hai(yani iske Elm me hai).

{ *Ahsan- Ul-Biyaan, Surah-Al-Jinn, Aayat-no---25 ,26 ,27 ,28 * )

2-Beshak qayamat ka Elm Allah hi ke pass hai aur wahi Barish nazil karta hai aur wahi janta hai jo Maaon(Mothers) ke peton me hai aur koi shaks nahi janta ke wo kal kya kaam karega aur koi shaks nahi janta ke wo kis zameen par marega Beshak Allah khoob janne wala khoob bakhabar hai,

( *Surah-Al-Luqmaan, Aayat-no--34 * )

Elm-E-Gaib Sirf Allah-Taala Ki Zaat-E-Paak Hai:- Is Aayat-e-karima me Gaib ki in kungion(keys) ka zikir hai jinka Elm Allah-Taala ne sirf apne pass hi rakha hai, Allah- Taala ke bataye Begaer kisi ko inka Elm nahi ho sakta.

Example:- Qayamat ke waqt ka Elm na kisi Nabi, Murshid aur na kisi Mulk ke Minister ko hai,

Surah-Al-Aaraaf me Allah-Taala farmata hai:- wahi(yani Allah) isse iske waqt hi par zhahir karega.

( Surah-Al-Aaraaf, Aayat-no--187 )

Issi tarah Allah-Taala ke siwa koi nahi janta ke Barish kab nazil hogi lekin jab iske bare me hukum de diya jata hai to in Farishton ko maloom ho jata hai jin ki Barish ke nizaam ke bere me Duty lagai gai hai ya isse maloom ho jata hai apni makhlooq me se Allah-Taala jise batana chhahe, Issi tarah Allah-Taala ke siwa koi nahi janta ke wo Hamla( yani pregnant) ke peat me kya paida karna chahata hai, lekin wo iske yani Ladka ya Ladki Neak hoga ya Bad hoga hone ke bare me hukum de deta hai to in Farishton ko Elm ho jata hai jinka is nizaam ke sath Duty lagai gai hain, Allah-Taala apne makhlooq me se jise chahe maloom kara de, Issi tarah koi nahi janta ke wo kal apni Dunya ya Aakhirat me kya karega, [*{*( Wa maa tadree nafsum bi'ayyi' ardin tamoot; )*}*] aur koi nahi janta ke wo kahan marega(yani Death karega) apne Mulk me ya kisi aur Mulk me isse maut aayegi, kisi ko bhi iska Elm nahi, ye Aayat-e-karima Surah-al-Aanaam ki is aayat se moshaba hai, Aur issi ke pass Gaib ki kungiyan(keys) hain jinko iske siwa koi nahi janta aur isse Jangalon aur Daryaon ki sab chizon ka Elm hai aur koi patta nahi jhadta magar wo isko janta hai, aur zameen ke andhero me koi dana aur koi gila aur sukha chiz nahi magar wazha kitaab me likhi hui hai.

( Surah-Al-Aaraaf, Aayat-no--59 )

Hadees me 5 chizon ko Gaib ki kungion ke naam se musoom kiya gaya hai. Iski puri tafseer le liye dekhe

( *Tafsir-ibn-Kathir, Surah-Al-Luqmaan, Aayat-no--34 * )

Hazrat-Abdullah-Bin-Umar{Radi-Allahu 'anhu} biyan kiya hai ke Nabi-Karim{sall'Allaahu ta'aalaa alaihi wa'sallam} ne farmaya: Gaib ki 5 ( five) kunjiyan(keys) hain jinhe Allah ke siwa koi nahi janta- Allah ke siwa koi nahi janta ke Madar-E- Raham me kiya hai(yani Ladka hai ya Ladki, Gura hoga ya Kala, Neak hoga ya Bad), Allah ke siwa koi nahi janta ke Kal kya hoga, Allah ke siwa koi nahi janta ke Barish kab hogi, Allah ke siwa koi nahi janta ke kis jagha koi Marega(yani death karega), Allah ke siwa koi nahi janta ke Qayamat kab qayam hogi.

( *Sahih-Bukhari, Vol-no: 8 , Book: 98( Kitab-Ul- Tauheed), Hadees-no: 7379 * )(*Sahih-Bukhari, Vol-no: 6 , Book: 65( Kitab-Ul-Tafseer), Hadees-no: 4627 ,4778 *)( *Sahih-Bukhari, Vol-no: 2 , Book: 15( Kitab-Ul-Istasqah), Hadees-no: 1039 * )

( *Tirmizi, Kitab-Ul-Tafseer, Hadees-no: 3290 * )
