Translation
[And if ye are in doubt concerning that which We reveal unto Our slave (Muhammad),
then produce a Surah of the like thereof, and call your witness beside Allah if ye are
truthful.
002.024 And if ye do it not - and ye can never do it - then guard yourselves against the
Fire prepared for disbelievers, whose fuel is of men and stones.]
Before we proceed to these verses it would be pertinent to know about some points. The
first point is about the shirk that Allah Subhana-Wa-Ta’aala has mentioned in the verse
SHIRK IS A GREVIOUS SIN 2
By
Shaikh Jalilu Issah
clear message that we should not bring anyone equal to Allah. To be equal to something
Jumah (Friday) to say things like it to have the praise of Mashallah how knowledgeable
is he! But if you did for the sake of Allah Subhana-Wa-Ta’aala but to impress your
listeners, there will be nothing mentioned in the books in their favour to be presented on
the Day of Judgment. Such people will go to Allah and ask regarding the matter that
why their names have been omitted from the books. They would say that built a
mosque, they prayed five times a day, they went on mimber and they taught people about
the Islam and religion. These will be their queries. Malaikahs (angles) will answer that
you are true but what you did in the world that was not for the sake of Allah Subhana-
Wa-Ta’aala but it was for the sake of you. That you did all those things in order to raise
your individual and personal status in the eyes of people. You just wanted people to
praise and raise you. So now you should go to those people and get your reward (swaab)
from them. Because such people had put people equal to Allah Subhana-Wa-Ta’aala.
They were expecting to have reward and regard from them not from Allah. This is called
shirk ul khafif (slight shirk). This is highly forbidden in Islam.
There is another kind of shirk also according to the Ahlul Bayt and according to
the infallible each is Mushrik. How? It is thought provoking. We should concentrate on
it. All of us are Mushrikûn (disbelievers in the ONeness of Allah) in some aspect. Before
we proceed ahead let us see in Surah Ya Sin what Allah says: [Alam
aAAhad ilaykum ] I did not have any commitment from you [an la
taAAbudoo] you will not worship anything equal to Allah Subhana-Wa-Ta’aala. So we
have already given our commitment to Allah Subhana-Wa-Ta’aala that when since we
came in this world all we have to do for the sake of Allah Subhana-Wa-Ta’aala. And the
same commitment we daily pledge to do in our five time prayers daily. We say;
[Iyyaka naAAbudu wa-iyyaka nastaAAeenu]
you are the only one whom we serve and we are not going to serve anyone but Allah
Subhana-Wa-Ta’aala. That we are going to reject our desires and wishes just for the
sake of Allah to be the devout servant of our Rabb (Lord, Master, Sustainer, Provider,
Supporter, Nourisher and Guardian, Sovereign and Ruler). Though you are devout
Muslims but your heart tells you something else to do which you know that Allah
Subhana-Wa-Ta’aala commands not to do these things. This is also called shirk.
Though this kind of shirk is not strong. This kind of shirk is forgivable. But all wishes
Allah Subhana-Wa-Ta’aala will not forgive if you take Allah Subhana-Wa-Ta’aala equal
mimma nazzalna AAala Aaabdina] that should you have any doubt should you
have [la rayba] doubt about what we have revealed on our servant
our servant. Allah says then bring or present one chapter comparable to
it. If you doubt that this holy Quran has not been sent by Allah Subhana-Wa-Ta’aala or it
has been written by the prophet (Salla 'Llahu 'alayhi wa sallam). Then the holy Quran
says if you have any doubt then bring any similar book like this.. It is an open challenge
of the holy Quran that even one verse like Quran man can not compose. And then He
[wa-ith
takhluqu mina altteeni kahay-ati alttayri bi-ithnee fatanfukhu feeha fatakoonu tayran bi-
ithnee]
That you made a bird of clay and you infused life in it and it turned into a real live bird.
written by the Muhammad (Salla 'Llahu 'alayhi wa sallam). It is from Allah Subhana-
Wa-Ta’aala. So if you have any better book than this brings it. Allah says in other verse
of Ahlul Bayt. They used to ask for the logical proof. The holy Quran favors the proof
and requires to have the soundest possible proof from the people who don’t believe in the
holy Quran.
On the same lines of the Quran Ahlul Bayt also proceed especially to talk to those
people who say that Shi'ah (Shi'ite) have different Quran. There is nothing like that.
Because unfortunately people say that the followers of Ahlul Bayt have another Quran.
They are entirely wrong in their thinking that Shi’ah have different Quran. May Allah
protect us from these slanderous remakes and acts.
Yes
The promise we gave that when we came to this world and we were going
to worship Allah Subhana-Wa-Ta’aala. Allah is saying:
general this question. I am your Lord, and then all of them said yes.
My pleasure brother.
