Once again the test of time has proven Christianity to be false "they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will recover.”(Mark 16:18)


Where are those Christian healers now? Christian ministries are closing their doors in case they get in contact with someone carrying the the disease. what happened to the saying of your man-god?


"they will lay their hands on the sick, and they will recover.” (Mark 16:18)

Why are you Christian healers hiding, why not perform your miracles?
Korede, Isang, Love a Muslim Ministry where are you guys!


A Christian apologist by the name of Korede from Nigeria has been offended by this. in response he wrote on his facebook:




---------------------
Mockery of Miracles?

Let me start with this. I am a Christian and I believe in Miracles, i believe God still heal people and that this continues today.

With that said, I also believe we are in the end time and there are false prophets out there who are deceiving people with signs and wonders, Christ already talked about this.
...
Now, I have been seeing some Muslims mocking the healing power of God in Christianity because of the outburst of the coronavirus, they acted as if God has never touched or healed anyone of this virus.
Even if a case is presented to them, they will call it a lie, because the MOTIVE of asking the question wasn't because they want to know, but falsify the faith.

In response to those "kind" (I know some well respected Muslims who wont go this route) of Muslims, here are a list of instructions and commands from their prophet which we expect to end the pandemic once and for all.

1. Miraculous Black Seed
Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said:
"Use this black seed. For indeed it contains a cure for every disease except As-Sam" And As-Sam is death.

Grade : Sahih (Darussalam)
Jami` at-Tirmidhi Vol. 4, Book 2, Hadith 2041
Question: Why aren't these mockers using this black seed for those who are down with the Virus?

2. Instant Healing
Narrated Abdullah ibn Abbas: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: If anyone visits a sick whose time (of death) has not come, and says with him seven times: I ask Allah, the Mighty, the Lord of the mighty Throne, to cure you, Allah will cure him from that disease.

Grade: Sahih (Al-Albani)
Sunan Abi Dawud Book 21, Hadith 18

Question: Atleast, how many Muslims are going round saying this seven TIMES on those who has the virus?

3. Why Shutting Down the Kaaba?
Narrated Abu Huraira: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Neither Messiah (Ad-Dajjal) nor plague will enter Medina."

Sahih al-Bukhar : Vol. 7, Book 71, Hadith 627

Question: If the Holy Site is secured from any plague, why shut down the place because of the fear of Coro?

4. Who actually send the Plaque?

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Allah does not send down any disease, but He also sends down the cure.

Grade: Sahih (Darussalam)
Sunan Ibn Majah Vol. 4, Book 31, Hadith 3439

Narrated Usama bin Zaid: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Plague was a means of torture sent on a group of Israelis (or on some people before you). So if you hear of its spread in a land, don't approach it, and if a plague should appear in a land where you are present, then don't leave that land in order to run away from it (i.e. plague).
Sahih al-Bukhari Vol. 4, Book 55, Hadith 679

Question: If Allah is the one who sent the Virus, where is the cure? Why are people dying without the cure surfacing yet?

----------------------


As you can read this desperate attempt by Korede shows he is dismissing the very words of his man-god. instead of giving us an answer regarding Christians healing the sick, he diverted. anyway we didn't expect them to give us a direct answer. below are the four points korede made refuted


1)


Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said:
"Use this black seed. For indeed it contains a cure for every disease except As-Sam" And As-Sam is death. (Jami` at-Tirmidhi Vol. 4, Book 2, Hadith 2041)


The Hadith says Black Seed contains cure for every disease . However, other substances may be needed to tackle specific disease by adding them to the Black seed. Black seed will be the main source with other added ingredients. This is perfectly normal for a Pharmaceutical scientist when developing a new drug. A single drug (medicine) can contain many other different ingredients, e.g. a tablet of metformin would contain "carboxy methylcellulose sodium, colloidal silicon dioxide, hypromellose, magnesium stearate, and microcrystalline cellulose."

Pharmaceutical scientist  would have to study and find out more, not that they could just develop a medicine. 



2)

Ibn 'Abbas (May Allah be pleased with them) reported:
The Prophet () said, "He who visits a sick person who is not on the point of death and supplicates seven times: As'alullahal-'Azima Rabbal-'Arshil-'Azimi, an yashfiyaka (I beseech Allah the Great, the Rubb of the Great Throne, to heal you), Allah will certainly heal him from that sickness."
[Abu Dawud and At- Tirmidhi]. (Riyad as-Salihin Book 7, Hadith 13)




Commentary: There is always a great certainty that Allah will respond to a supplication which springs from a sincere, veracious heart. One should, there, pray for the patient with full conviction and reassurance of the heart. Moreover, the Prophet's prayer have special effect and grace and therefore their original wordings should be uttered. (Commentary found in Riyad Us Saliheen by  Imam an-Nawawi Ra)

We understand from the commentary of the Hadith this supplication must spring from a sincere, veracious (speaking or representing the truth.) person. Also, as Muslims we leave the cure to Allah Swt. We believe the decision of who is cured is all with Allah Swt. Ibraheem As said to his father and his people " And when I get sick, He heals me." (Surah 26:80). Note, the Prophets prayer had special effect and grace. We also read from Sahih Hadith where Prophet Muhammed Pbuh during visiting the sick would supplicate that only Allah Swt is the healer.

It was narrated that ‘Aishah said:
“When the Messenger of Allah () came to a sick person, he would make supplication for him, and would say: Adhhibil-bas, Rabban-nas, washfi Antash-Shafi, la shifaa illa shifauka shifa’an la yughadiru saqama (Take away the pain, O Lord of mankind, and grant healing, for You are the Healer, and there is no healing but Your healing that leaves no trace of sickness).’” (Sunan Ibn Majah Vol. 4, Book 31, Hadith 3520)

'A'isha reported Allah's Messenger () as saying:
When Allah's Messenger () visited the sick he would say: Lord of the people. remove the disease, cure him, for Thou art the great Curer, there is no cure but through Thine healing Power, which leaves nothing of the disease. (Sahih Muslim Book 39, Hadith 63)



3)

Narrated Abu Huraira:
Allah's Messenger () said, "There are angels guarding the entrances (or roads) of Medina, neither plague nor Ad-Dajjal will be able to enter it." (Sahih al-Bukhari 1880)

Correct the Hadith does state plague will not enter Medina, however by closing the mosque does not mean the enter Medina is closed? You must understand the Saudi authorities make such decisions on how to run their country and what precautions to be taken. Also, notice from the Hadith when plague is mention so is ad dajjal. This could mean when ad dajjal arrives he will bring a plague with him which neither the plague or dajjal will be able to enter Medina as the angels will be guarding. So far all the Hadith mention plague and ad dajjal together, possible speaking of the end of times. Allah knows best. We know from hadith people who had a plague were not to leave to enter that town or city



The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) also said,
If you learn of a city with a contagious affliction, do not enter it; if you are in it, do not leave it [to prevent spreading the disease].” (Al-Bukhari, Muslim and others)

He also advised us to keep away from those with disease. When a person with leprosy wanted to give the Prophet an oath allegiance, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not shake hands with him. Rather, he assured him gently, “We have already received your oath of allegiance“. (Muslim)

It was narrated from a man from the family of Sharid whose name was ‘Amr, that his father said:
“There was a leper among the delegation of Thaqif. The Prophet () sent word to him: ‘Go back, for we have accepted your oath of allegiance.’” (Sunan Ibn Majah Vol. 4, Book 31, Hadith 3544)

This person was going to come into Madina (the city) to give his oath. If  plague was not to enter Madina the delegate would not have been stopped. As for the refutation, please show us a Hadith which speaks for the plague alone and not dajjal with it.

Please watch this short video by Dr Yasir Qadhi who makes mentioned of the Hadith https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWxqyGipApQ&t=442s


4)

Narrated Usama bin Zaid:
Allah's Messenger () said, "Plague was a means of torture sent on a group of Israelis (or on some people before you). So if you hear of its spread in a land, don't approach it, and if a plague should appear in a land where you are present, then don't leave that land in order to run away from it (i.e. plague). (Sahih al-Bukhari 3473)


No doubt we agree from the Hadith plague was a means of torture form the bani Israel. Note "was" a mean. And we agree God Almighty has control over everything. Without the permission of God Almighty nothing happens

The Number of Angels Speaking to Mary


By

Ansar Al-'Adl


The allegation is as follows:
How many angels were talking to Mary? When the Qur'an speaks about the announciation of the birth of Jesus to the virgin Mary, Sura 3:42,45 speaks about (several) angels while it is only one in Sura 19:17-21.
There are many ways to explain these verses, and we shall examine some of them, insha'Allah.

The verses in question are the following:

From Surah Al Imran:
3:42. And (remember) when the angels said: "O Mary! Verily, Allâh has chosen you, purified you (from polytheism and disbelief), and chosen you above the women of all nations."
3:43. O Mary! "Submit yourself with obedience to your Lord (Allâh, by worshipping none but Him Alone) and prostrate yourself, and bow down along with those who bow down etc.)."
3:44. This is a part of the news of the Ghaib (unseen, i.e. the news of the past nations of which you have no knowledge) which We inspire you with (O Muhammad ). You were not with them, when they cast lots with their pens as to which of them should be charged with the care of Maryam (Mary); nor were you with them when they disputed.
3:45. (Remember) when the angels said: "O Maryam (Mary)! Verily, Allâh gives you the glad tidings of a Word ["Be!" - and he was! i.e.Jesus the son of Mary] from Him, his name will be the Messiah Jesus, the son of Mary, held in honour in this world and in the Hereafter, and will be one of those who are near to Allâh."
3:46. "He will speak to the people in the cradle and in manhood, and he will be one of the righteous."
3:47. She said: "O my Lord! How shall I have a son when no man has touched me." He said: "So (it will be) for Allâh creates what He wills. When He has decreed something, He says to it only: "Be!" and it is.

And from Sura Maryam:

19:17. She placed a screen (to screen herself) from them; then We sent to her Our Ruh [angel Jibrael (Gabriel)], and he appeared before her in the form of a man in all respects.
19:18. She said: "Verily! I seek refuge with the Most Beneficent (Allâh) from you, if you do fear Allâh."
19:19. (The angel) said: "I am only a Messenger from your Lord, (to announce) to you the gift of a righteous son."
19:20. She said: "How can I have a son, when no man has touched me, nor am I unchaste?"
19:21. He said: "So (it will be), your Lord said: 'That is easy for Me (Allâh): And (We wish) to appoint him as a sign to mankind and a mercy from Us (Allâh), and it is a matter (already) decreed, (by Allâh).' "
 
1. There is NO indication that these verses refer to the same event.

If we examine the Qur'anic verses we can come up with an interpretation of the chronological order of events.
 
a. The angels announced to Mary pbuh the glad tidings of Jesus pbuh without giving any further details. (verse 3:45)

b. After the angels depart, Mary pbuh expresses her surprise in her prayer to God. (verse 3:47). The verse makes it clear that she is no longer talking to the angels because she says, "My Lord.."

c. An angel sent by God informs her that God is able to do all things (verse 3:47, "So (it will be) for Allâh creates what He wills.")

d. After a period of time, Angel Gabriel is sent by God, and appears personally before Mary to inform her of the birth of Jesus pbuh (verse 19:19).

e. Here she asks the Angel directly (verse 19:20) how it is possible for her to have a child. And the Angel Gabriel replies as seen in verse 19:21.

The basis of this explanation is the usage of the words yubashiroke in Sura Al-Imran which means to give glad tidings of a coming event. On the other hand, the verse in Sura Maryam uses the wordsle ahaba lake which means to "present you with", implying that the event is to happen there.

An objection raised to this explanation is that Mary must be forgetful if she asks the same question having already recieved the answer. This is not necessarily the case. An event so surprising and unusual as this would easily explain her persistence in trying to understand how this is possible. Often people may be so bewildered by some news that they may repeat their inquiry in their surpirse, and that is not unusual.

2. Another simple and logical explanation that can be offered is that the it is not uncommon for the action of a single member of an organization to be attributed to the whole organization. In a hockey match, we may say that so-and-so scored the final goal, or we could say that such-and-such a team scored the final goal. It would not be a contradiction. So when Angel Gabriel appeared to Mary and he gave her the glad tidings of a son, the action may be attributed to the angels, whether they were present or not, visible or not. This interpretation is supported by verse 3:47, which says that Mary asked how it could be possible and he (Angel Gabriel) replied, and not they (angels).

3. Another way to understand the verses is to examine a similar verse of the Qur'an:
 
41:30. In the case of those who say, "Our Lord is Allah., and, further, stand straight and steadfast, the angels descend on them (from time to time): "Fear ye not!" (they suggest), "Nor grieve! but receive the Glad Tidings of the Garden (of Bliss), the which ye were promised!
Here we are told that those who stand firm in Islam will have angels surrounding them and telling them not to fear. Obviously, this does not mean that the righteous people expect to hear these voices speaking to them, but rather it is the general feeling of peace and good inspired into the righteous person by these angels. The presence and words of the angels invoke a feeling of security.

Likewise, when we read the first passage about Mary, the angels speaking to her may just have been a general inspiration or notion that she would bear a child, and she continually wondered to Allah, as to how this was possible. And the answer given in 3:47 is Allah's answer inspired to her through the angels in the same fashion. Naturally, when the event was to occur and the Angel Gabriel physically appeared to her in the form of a man, she would voice this same concern to verify the inspiration she had been recieving.

Each of these three explanations is sufficient to answer the allegation.

According to the NT Jesus said do not pray using repetition, yet the Prayer in Psalm found in the DSS does exactly that.



Note the key repetition after each verse is, "Praise Yahweh, and praise his name for ever and ever."


------------

and gracious in all his works.
Praise Yahweh, and praise his name for ever and ever.


18 Yahweh is near to all those who call on him, and praise his name forever and ever.
to all who They will call on him in truth.
Praise Yahweh, and praise his name for ever and ever.


19 He will fulfill the desire of those who fear him.
He also will hear their cry, and will save them.
Praise Yahweh, and praise his name for ever and ever.


20 Yahweh preserves all those who love fear him,
but all the wicked he will destroy.
Praise Yahweh, and praise his name for ever and ever.


21 My mouth will speak the praise of Yahweh.
Let all flesh bless his holy name forever and ever.
Praise Yahweh, and praise his name for ever and ever.


This is for a memorial… (Psalms 145 DSS 11Q5)


Jesus of the NT said to the Jews not to pray in repetitions as the pagans do. The very word of David inspired by God according to the Jews has a whole chapter with repetition. what does that tell you?


seems like Jesus of the NT was comparing the book of Psalms to Pagans rituals.

Jewish and Christian disagreement about Satan Christians believe he was a fallen angel, an enemy of God. Jews believe he was an obedient agent of God


Jewish approach. In 1 Chronicles 21:1, it states, “Then Satan stood up against Israel and moved David to number Israel.”

However, another passage in the Jewish Bible, 2 Samuel 24:1, states that God caused King David to count the Jewish people. “The anger of the Lord burned against Israel, and He incited David against them to say, ‘Go number Israel…’”

So, who made David number Israel – Satan or God? The confusion is based on a misunderstanding of the word, “Satan.”

Unlike Christianity, Jewish Scriptures do not teach that Satan is a “fallen and rebellious angel.” In fact, the first time that Satan appears in the Jewish Bible, the word refers to an angel sent by God to prevent Balaam, the non-Jewish prophet, from cursing the Jewish people. In fact, Balaam winds up blessing them. Definitely not a mission for an evil Satan!

The Jewish Bible states, “God was very angry when he (Balaam) went, and the angel (מאלך) of the Lord stood in the road to oppose (לשטן) him…” [Numbers 22:22] In this verse, the Hebrew word for “oppose” is “l’satan” and it is clearly not referring to an angel who is rebelling against God’s will. Rather, it refers to a messenger designated to carry out His will. The literal meaning of the Hebrew word “malach – מאלך is messenger although it is usually translated as “angel.”

This interpretation is also consistent with the biblical account of Satan found in the book of Job. There we see that Satan has no free will of his own and is given permission by God to torment Job to test his loyalty to Him.

Thus, we see that Satan is a force, an angel, used by God to test mankind. Furthermore, we can understand the purpose of evil in this world and why the Jewish prophet Isaiah 45:7 states that God, “makes peace and creates evil (רע). Contrary to Christianity’s viewpoint, which is similar to the one inherent in Greek mythology, Judaism does not regard Satan as a separate force that exists to oppose God.

The fallen angel concept is based on a mistranslation of Isaiah 14:12 – first introduced by Saint Jerome in his Latin Vulgate – where the words “morning star” (Venus) are mistranslated to “Lucifer” (the devil). The Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar was associated with the deity Ishtar/Venus and he was metaphorically thrown from heaven for his evil role in destroying Jerusalem. The word Lucifer is related to the words “lucent” and “lux” which mean shining light.

Prophet Muhammed (p) Was Sent To Teach & Explain The Quran


Donate To Discover The Truth

This article is a thorough refutation to Hadith-rejecters. As we will examine, the Prophet was sent by God (Allah) to explain, teach and to instruct with wisdom the Quran. This evidence alone will show that Hadith are part of the Deen of Islam. At the end of this article there will be another section, where Mufti Taqi Usmani, will prove from Quranic passages that the Prophet (p) received two kinds of revelations from Allah.
1. ALLAH SAYS TO “OBEY THE MESSENGER”
Say Obey Allah and the Messenger. But if they turn away, then Allah does not like the disbelievers. [Quran 3:32]
And whoso obey Allah and the Messenger (Muhammad) then they will be in the company of those on whom Allah has bestowed His Grace, of the Prophets, the Siddiqun (those followers of the Prophets who were first and foremost to believe in them, like Abu Bakr As-Siddiq the martyrs, and the righteous. And how excellent these companions are! [Quran 4:69]
They ask you (O Muhammad)about the spoils of war. Say: “The spoils are for Allah and the Messenger.” So fear Allah and adjust all matters of difference among you, and obey Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad), if you are believers. [Quran 8:1]
O you who believe! Obey Allah and His Messenger, and turn not away from him (i.e. Messenger Muhammad) while you are hearing. [Quran 8:20]
The believers, men and women, are Auliya’ (helpers, supporters, friends, protectors) of one another; they enjoin (on the people) Al-Ma’ruf (i.e. Islamic Monotheism and all that Islam orders one to do), and forbid (people) from Al-Munkar (i.e. polytheism and disbelief of all kinds, and all that Islam has forbidden); they perform As-Salat (Iqamat-as-Salat), and give the Zakat, and obey Allah and His Messenger. Allah will have His Mercy on them. Surely Allah is All-Mighty, All-Wise. [Quran 9:71]
He who obeys the Messenger has indeed obeyed Allah, but he who turns away, then we have not sent you as a watcher over them. [Quran 4:80]
As we have read the above verses, Allah has made it clear that Obedience to the Prophet is obedience to Him. There are two distinct commands in the verses shown.
1. “Obey Allah” = Quran
2. “Obey the Messenger” = Prophet Muhammed (p) Sunnah
I have heard from some Hadith-rejecters, telling me that “Obeying the Messenger”, doesn’t mean obeying the prophet Muhammed (p). According to these self-made scholars, it means to obey the Quran. Here is a challenge for Hadith rejecters. Show me one verse in the entire Quran, where Allah says, “obey the messenger”, means to ‘obey the Quran?’
2. AUTHORITY OF PROPHET MUHAMMED (P)
It is not for a believing man or a believing woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decided a matter, that they should [thereafter] have any choice about their affair. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger has certainly strayed into clear error. [Quran 33:36]
And what Allah restored to His Messenger from the people of the towns – it is for Allah and for the Messenger and for [his] near relatives and orphans and the [stranded] traveller – so that it will not be a perpetual distribution among the rich from among you. And whatever the Messenger has given you – take; and what he has forbidden you – refrain from. And fear Allah ; indeed, Allah is severe in penalty. [Quran 59:7]
But no, by the Lord, they can have no (real) Faith, until they make thee judge in all disputes between them, and find in their souls no resistance against Thy decisions, but accept them with the fullest conviction. [Quran 4:65]
O you who believe! Obey Allah and obey the Messenger (Muhammad, pbuh), and those of you (Muslims) who are in authority. (And) if you differ in anything amongst yourselves, refer it to Allah and His Messenger if you believe in Allah and in the Last Day. That is better and more suitable for final determination. [Quran 4:59]
In the above verse (quran 4:59) Allah says, “if you differ in anything amongst yourselves, refer it to Allah AND HIS Messenger”. As you see, this is enough proof that prophet Muhammed (p) was more than just a delivery-man. This verse (Quran 4:59) proves that he (the Prophet) was more than just delivering the Quran. It also proves, that if we as Muslims have any dispute in matters of religion, we should refer it back to his Messenger, Muhammed (p). As Allah stated at the end of the verse (Quran 4:59), “If you believe in Allah and in the Last Day. That is better and more suitable for final determination.”
Those who follow the messenger, the unlettered 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, and follow the light which is sent down with him,- it is they who will prosper. [Quran 7:157]
If you have read clearly in the above verses Allah has made it clear that the prophet Muhammed (pbuh) has Authority by Allah to prohibit and allow:
“He allows them as lawful what is good (and pure) and prohibits them from what is bad.” [Quran 7:157]
This is another beautiful verse, where Allah states clearly that the Messenger has authority to prohibit and allow. The verse can’t get any clearer, you can read this in any translation, even in Arabic, and it says the same thing. The verse says, “for HE (Muhammed p) commands what is Halal and Haram”. The verse does not say, “for he commands what is Halal and Haram from the Quran.” This verse (Quran 7:157) alone should make hadith-rejecters ponder in what they’re rejecting, they go against the command of Allah.
3. PROPHET (P) WAS SENT TO EXPLAIN THE QUR’AN
With clear signs and Books (We sent the Messengers). And We have also sent down unto you (O Muhammad SAW) the reminder and the advice (the Quran), that you may explain clearly to men what is sent down to them, and that they may give thought.[Quran 16:44]
And We have not sent down the Book (the Quran) to you (O Muhammad SAW), except that you may explain clearly unto them those things in which they differ, and (as) a guidance and a mercy for a folk who believe. [Quran 16:64]
From the above verses it is clear like day and night that Prophet Muhammed (p) is here to explain the Quran to Mankind.
There are 5 theories going around by the Hadith-rejecters, I will respond to them one by one, God willing.
1. I have spoken to Hadith-rejecters and they tell me verses Such as 16;44 and 16:64 doesn’t say that the prophet is here to “explain”. They say the word that should be used is, the prophet Muhammed (p) is here to “make things clear” not to explain. They love playing with words.
To make clear or to explain, have the same meanings.
Below is an explanation what the words:- “Make clear” means,
A) Declare (v.)
B) illustration (n.)
C) elucidate (v.)
D) clarify (v.)
E) explain (v.)
Source:
http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?allowed_in_frame=0&search=make+clear&searchmode=phrase
2. This second theory is really amusing. These people just make things as they go along. I read on one website, where the person was arguing that Allah didn’t want to preserve the explanations of the prophet Muhammed (p), the person was referring to Quranic verses, such as, 16:44 and 16:66.
He has mocked Allah (Astaghfiru’Allah). What he is saying is that, Allah gave the best understanding of the Quran at the time of the Prophet, while he was alive and who ever came after the prophet was a lost sheep. According to him Allah only explained the Quran to people at the time of the prophet Muhammed (p). Another thing he is saying is that Allah failed to preserve the explanations, teachings of the prophet. What this individual is doing, he is making up his own theories, making up lies not to follow Hadith and deceive people, even though deep down he knows Hadith are from the prophet Muhammed (p). I have a question for Hadith-rejecters:- since when did Allah say in the Quran, the “explanations” of the prophet are temporary while he is alive?
3. Another person came with another theory that prophet Muhammed only explained the teachings of the Quran to the Jews. His proof was the previous verse, before 16:44 and 16:64. These Quranist can’t get anything straight. First they say, ‘no the prophet was sent only to deliver the Quran’, and nothing else. Now they change their mind and say, “no the prophet only allowed to explain to Jews.” This is ridiculous, if prophet was sent to explain the Quran to the Jews, what about the Muslims? So if a Muslim was struggling, understanding a verse of the Quran, are we to assume, going by their own understanding that the prophet wouldn’t explain the verse to a Muslim?
4. Another thing they believe, not all of them, but some do. They say, the word “BaYanA” in 16:44 doesn’t mean to ‘explain’ to make clear. He says, the word that should be used is, “to show” or “to present”. They havent provided any evidence for this claim.
The word that is used in 16:44 in Arabic is “Litubayyina” – “BaYaNa”, There is only one meaning for it, it means, “explain” or to “make clear” both have the same meanings, as I demonstrated earlier. Edward Lane says the following on the Arabic word BaYaNa:

BaYaNa - Litubayyina
( Source: Edward Lane Lexicon Volume 1, page 288)


5. This last claim, by Hadith-rejecter is taking the biscuit. This person was bringing verses from there and there, mingling up and making his own interpretation. The person acknowledges that 16:44 is true, and that Prophet Muhammed (p) did indeed explain the Quran, but there is twist to it. He is trying to say, the prophet “explained” the Quran by using other verses from the Quran to “explain”.
“Explain” = Is to demonstrate, describing it in more detail, to make something more clear, how to do something, to interpret.  If anyone reads the verse from start to end, you will see the verse is very clear, that prophet Muhammed (pbuh) is the one that will explain. The verse does not say, “he will explain through the Quran”. The person,  brought other arguments that the Quran is easy to understand and that there is no need to interpret it. Here are few questions for this individual and the people who have that sort of belief.

  • If the Quran is easy to understand, why does the prophet need to explain through the quran?
  •  Every Hadith-Rejecter I have met says “the Quran in itself is a Tafseer and explains everything.” If that is the case all the person has to do is read the Quran and he will understand the message. Why does the prophet need to interpret, explain to people to understand the Quran, if the Quran in itself is explained already?

4. PROPHET WAS SENT TO INSTRUCT THE QUR’AN WITH WISDOM
Our Lord! Send amongst them a Messenger of their own who shall recite unto them Your Verses and instruct them in the Book (this Qur’an) and Al-Hikmah (full knowledge of the Islamic laws and jurisprudence or wisdom or Prophethood), and purify them. Verily! You are the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.” [Quran2:129]
It is He Who has sent amongst the Unlettered a messenger from among themselves, to rehearse to them His Signs, to sanctify them, and to instruct them in Scripture and Wisdom,- although they had been, before, in manifest error;- [Quran 62:2]
Another proof from the above passages that Prophet Muhammed (p) was to instruct people in the Quran with wisdom. What is Instructing? Here is an explanation:
in·struct
1. To furnish with knowledge, especially by a systematic method; teach; train; educate.
2.To furnish with orders or directions; direct; order; command: The doctor instructed me to diet.
3.To furnish with information; inform; apprise.

5. PROPHET (P) WAS SENT TO TEACH THE QUR’AN
Similarly (to complete My Blessings on you) We have sent among you a Messenger (Muhammad SAW) of your own, reciting to you Our Verses (the Quran) and sanctifying you, and teaching you the Book (the Quran) and the Hikmah (i.e. Sunnah, Islamic laws and Fiqh – jurisprudence), and teaching you that which you used not to know. [Quran 2:151]
Certainly did Allah confer [great] favor upon the believers when He sent among them a Messenger from themselves, reciting to them His verses and purifying them and teaching them the Book and wisdom, although they had been before in manifest error. [Quran 3:164]
In the above verses Allah has made it clear that the prophet (pbuh) teaches people the Quran with the wisdom.
Allah says, ‘we have sent to the believers a messenger reciting to the people his verses’. The Prophet (p) was sent to TEACH the Book (Quran) AND the WISDOM. How do we know what the prophet taught if it is not in the Quran? Where is the knowledge (wisdom) Allah gave to the Prophet (p), if it is not in the Quran?
Musa (alayhi salaam) said to him,
“May I have your company so that you teach me some of the rightful knowledge you have been given.” [Quran 18 66]
A prophet of Allah humbled himself to take knowledge from a man more knowledgeable than him. He used to receive revelations from Allah, yet he was in need of knowledge from someone who knows more? Isn’t that something to THINK about?
If Allah taught Prophet Muhammed (p) what the verses of the Quran mean, what makes you Hadith rejecters think that you don’t need a teacher to teach you? If all the Prophet (p) had to do, to understand the Quran, is to read the verses. Why then does Allah say in this verse 53;5 HE is the one that teaches the prophet what verses of the Quran mean? Here is the passage below, where Allah says that he one who teaches the Prophet.
Nor does he speak from [his own] inclination. It is not but a revelation revealed. He was taught by one Mighty in Power” [Quran 53:3-5]
Questions for Hadith-rejecters:
1. How do we know what the prophet taught if it is not in the Quran?
2. Where is the knowledge (wisdom) Allah gave to the prophet if it is not in the Quran?
3. How can we (Muslims) find out what he judged in disputes so that we as Muslims can abide by it?
4. How can we as Muslims determine what the Prophet Muhammed (pbuh) has ordered, in order for us to obey it?
5. How do we know what he has decided on matters of (Deen, religion), so that we can submit to it?
6. How do we discover what he the prophet Muhammed (p) has given, so that we can take it, or what he has prohibited, so we can leave it?
7. How come we have no history for you people before 200 years ago? How is it that we have not one trace in history where there were communities that rejected the sayings (Hadith) of the prophet (p)?

Prophet (pbuh) received two kinds of revelations:

Two Kinds of Revelation
It follows from the foregoing discussion that the revelation the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) received from Allâh is of two different kinds:
(i) the revelation of the Qur’ân, the Holy Book, named in the Islamic terminology as al-wahy al-matluww (the recited revelation, i.e. the revelation which can be recited in the prayers). This kind of revelation is confined to the verses of the Holy Qur’ân and is written verbally in its folds.
(ii) the revelation received by the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) from time to time to let him know the pleasure of Allâh in day-to-day affairs and the details of the principles laid down in the Holy Qur’ân with their correct interpretation. This kind of revelation is called al-wahy ghair al-matluww (the unrecited revelation). This kind of revelation is not conveyed to the people verbally. It has been demonstrated through the sayings and acts of the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam).
The Second Kind of Revelation Proved by the Holy Qur’ân
This second kind of revelation is not contained in the Holy Qur’ân, but the Holy Qur’ân itself not only refers to it frequently but attributes its contents to Allâh Almighty. Some verses of the Holy Book are reproduced below which clearly prove that the “revelation” is not confined to the Holy Qur’ân, but there is another kind of “wahy” which does not form part of the “Holy Book,” yet it is the revelation from Allâh Almighty:
First Example: The Holy Qur’ân says:
And We did not appoint the Qiblah on which you were earlier, but that We might know the people who follow the Messenger as distinct from those who turn back on their heels. (2:143)
In order to understand the verse, it is necessary to know the background in which it was revealed:
In the early days of Madani life, after the Holy Prophet’s (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) migration to Madinah, the Muslims were ordered to direct their faces in prayers towards Baytul-Maqdas (Jerusalem) which had been appointed as Qiblah of the Muslims. Up to seventeen months, the Muslims had been observing the Baytul-Maqdas as their Qiblah. It was after seventeen months that the Holy Qur’ân abrogated the earlier order and the Muslims were required to observe the Holy Mosque of Makkah as their Qiblah and turn their faces towards it while praying. The following verse was revealed to appoint the new Qiblah:
…So turn your face towards al-Masjid al-Haraam. (2:144)
This new order was criticized by some disbelievers and they objected on it as to why the Baytul-Maqdas was appointed as Qiblah earlier. The above quoted verse (2:143) was revealed to answer this objection. The answer was that the appointment of the former Qiblah was in order to test the people whether or not they follow the Messenger. To quote the meaning of the verse again:
And We did not appoint the Qiblah on which you were earlier, but that We might know the people who follow the Messenger… (2:143)
Here the appointment of the previous Qiblah has been attributed to Allâh Almighty, which is a clear indication to the fact that the appointment of Baytul-Maqdas as Qiblah was done by the order of Allâh Almighty Himself. But this order is nowhere in the Holy Qur’ân, and there is no verse in the Holy Book which directs the turning of faces towards Baytul-Maqdas. This order was given to Muslims by the Holy Prophet () with no reference to any verse of the Holy Qur’ân. Still, this order was mentioned by the Holy Qur’ân in the above quoted verse as the order of Allâh: The words,
“We did not appoint the Qiblah,” instead of the words,
“The Holy Prophet did not…” are too clear on this point to need more explanation.
This statement of the Holy Qur’ân, thus, evidently proves that the previous order given by the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) was based on a revelation which did not form part of the Book. And this is exactly the “unrecited revelation.” The verse of the Holy Qur’ân (2:143) quoted above proves the following facts:
(a) The Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) used to receive some revelations which are not contained in the Holy Qur’ân.
(b) These revelations were from Allâh Almighty, so much so that the orders based on such revelations were attributed to Allâh Almighty.
(c) The orders based on such revelation were as binding on the believers as the orders of the first kind of revelations, i.e. the verse of the Holy Qur’ân.
(d) These orders were sometimes given so as to test whether or not the Muslims follow the Messenger (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) irrespective of the question that his orders are contained in the Holy Qur’ân or not.
Second Example: In the beginning, one of the rules followed by the Muslims in respect of the fasts of Ramadan was that even a short nap after iftaar (breaking of a fast) would nullify the permissibility of having sexual intercourse with one’s wife. So, if someone would sleep for a short while after iftaar and wake up again, he would lose the opportunity of sleeping with his wife during the rest of the night, despite that the fast was over. This rule was prescribed by the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) and was not contained in the Holy Qur’ân. But some Muslims broke the rule by sleeping with their wives after having a post-iftaar nap. Referring to these events, the Holy Qur’ân first admonishes those people who did not follow the rule. Then, by abrogating the same, allows the Muslims in future to sleep with their wives even when they had a nap after iftaar. In this context the Holy Qur’ân says:
It is made lawful for you, in the nights of fasts, to have sex with your women. They are a cover for you, and you are a cover for them. Allâh knew that you were betraying yourselves; so, He relented towards you and pardoned you. So, now you can have sexual intimacy with them, and seek what Allâh has destined for you, and eat and drink until the white thread of the dawn becomes distinct from the black thread; then complete the fasts up to the night. (2:187)
The following points with respect to this verse are worth consideration:
(a) The verse confirms that having sex during the nights of Ramadaan was not lawful before.
(b) The people who had sex during the nights of Ramadaan before this verse was revealed are admonished by describing their act as “betraying themselves.”
(c) The words, “so He relented towards you and pardoned you,” indicate that their sexual act was a sin, because “relenting” and “pardoning” occur only after a person commits a sin.
(d) The words “so now you can have sexual intimacy with them” denote that it is only now that the sexual act during the nights of Ramadaan has been made lawful.
All these points confirm the fact that the earlier prohibition of having sexual intercourse during the nights of Ramadaan was validly made by a competent authority, and the Muslims were bound to abide by it.
But there is no verse in the Holy Qur’ân to convey this prohibition.. It was enforced only by the Holy Prophet (). Still, the Holy Qur’ân not only confirms it, but also treats it as if it were in its own words. It is due to the fact that the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) did not enforce this prohibition by his own will, it was rather based on a revelation of Allâh Almighty which is not contained in the Holy Qur’ân.
Looked at from this angle, this verse on the one hand proves that there is a revelation which does not form part of the Holy Qur’ân, and on the other hand it reaffirms the status of the Holy Prophet () as a law-giver, and that his injunctions, both orders and prohibitions, are binding on the Muslims.
Third Example: On the occasion of the battle of Uhud, some Qur’ânic verses were revealed to make the Muslims recall the events of the battle of Badr: How Allâh helped them and how He promised to send the angels to their aid, and how He actually did so. These verses are as under:
Allâh has certainly helped you at Badr while you were weak. So, fear Allâh so that you may be grateful. When you (O Prophet) were saying to the believers, ‘Shall it not suffice you that your Lord shall aid you with three thousand angels being sent down? Why not? If you observe patience and fear Allâh and they come to you in this their heat, your Lord shall aid you with five thousand angels having distinct marks?’ And Allâh did not make it but a good news for you so that your hearts might be satisfied. And there is no help except from Allâh, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise. (3:123-126)
The emphasized sentence of these verses attributes the good news of the aid of angels to Allâh Almighty, meaning thereby that the good news of this aid was given by Allâh Himself. But this good news given at the time of Badr is nowhere available in the Holy Qur’ân. In other words, there is no verse in the Holy Book revealed during the battle of Badr which implies the good news of the aid of the angels. What is quoted above is only a reference of that news, made at the time of a later battle, and it is expressly mentioned in this verse that the good news was given by the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam). Still, the news is attributed to Allâh.
Thus, it is another example where the words of the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) are held to be the words of Allâh. There is no reason for this expression other than that the words of the Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) were inspired by a special revelation, not contained in the Holy Qur’ân, and this is what is called the “unrecited revelation.”
Fourth example: Referring to the battle of Uhud at another occasion, the Holy Qur’ân says:
And when Allâh promised you that one of the two groups shall be for you. (8:7)
One of the two parties referred to in this verse was the commercial caravan of Abu Sufyan, coming from Syria, and the other group was the army of the Makkan disbelievers, led by Abu Jahl. The above verse says that Allâh had promised the believers that they would triumph over one of these two groups. The Muslims, in fact, won the battle against the latter, namely, the army of Abu Jahl.
The point worth consideration here is that the promise of Allâh to give the Muslims victory against any of the two groups is not there in the Holy Qur’ân. This promise was conveyed to the Muslims by the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) without any reference to any verse of the Holy Qur’ân. Still, the verse quoted above atttibutes the promise to Allâh and not to the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam).
The only conclusion derivable from this is that the promise was received by the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) through an “unrecited revelation.” Hence it is attributed to Allâh. Guided by this revelation, the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) conveyed the promise to his companions.
Thus, it is another proof of the existence of a kind of revelation which is not contained in the Holy Qur’ân and is called the “unrecited revelation.”
Fifth Example: Once the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) told a secret to one of his wives. She disclosed the secret to some other person. When the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) came to know that the secret has been disclosed by his wife, he sought an explanation from her. She asked him as to who told him about the disclosure. The Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) replied that he was informed about it by Allâh Almighty.
This event has been mentioned by the Holy Qur’ân in the following words:
And when the Prophet told one of his wives about a matter secretly; then, when she told about it, and Allâh has disclosed it to him, he made known some part of it, and turned aside from some part; then, when he told her about it, she said, “Who told you this?” He said, “I was told by the All-Knowing, the All-Aware.” (66: 3)
The emphasized sentence of this verse is quite clear in that Allâh told the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) about the disclosure of the secret. This is also not mentioned anywhere in the Holy Qur’ân. So, it is another concrete example where the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) received some revelation from Allâh other than the one contained in the Holy Qur’ân. This is exactly the “unrecited revelation.”
Sixth Example: During the siege of Banu Nadir, the famous tribe of the Jews in Madinah, some Muslims had cut down date-trees from around the fort to compel the enemy to surrender. After the war was over, some Jews objected to the cutting trees. The Holy Qur’ân has answered the objection in the following words:
Whatever date-trees you cut down, or left standing upon their roots, that was by the leave of Allâh. (59:5)
It has been very directly mentioned in this verse that the Muslims cut down the trees with a leave from Allâh. But nobody can point out to any verse in the Holy Qur’ân to the effect that the cutting of trees during the war is allowed. The question is: from where did the Muslims acquire this leave from Allâh? There is no answer to this question except that the leave of Allâh had been conveyed to them by the Holy Prophet () and he received it through “unrecited revelation.”
Seventh Example: It is well known that the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) had adopted Sayyidina Zaid bin Haarithah (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) as his son. He married Zainab, daughter of Jahsh. After some time their relations began to be strained and, ultimately, he divorced her. In the days of Jahiliyyah an adopted son was treated as a real son in all respects and for all purposes. The Holy Qur’ân, on the other hand, declared that the adopted sons cannot be treated as the real ones.
To eradicate the Jahili concept of the adopted son, Allâh Almighty ordered the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) that he should marry Zainab (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) after her having been divorced by his adopted son, Zaid ibn Haarithah (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam). The Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) was a bit reluctant in the beginning, for, according to the prevalent custom, it was treated a shameful act to marry the divorced wife of one’s adopted son. But when the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) received a concrete order from Allâh, he married her.
This event has been mentioned by the Holy Qur’ân in the following words:
When you were saying to the one whom Allâh had blessed and whom you had blessed, (i.e. Zaid, before he divorced Zainab), “Keep to you your wife and fear Allâh,” and you were hiding in your heart what Allâh was to disclose and you were fearing people, and Allâh has more right to be feared by you. So, when Zaid finished with her, We made you marry her, so that there may remain no restriction on the believers in respect of the wives of their adopted sons when they have finished with them. And the order of Allâh had to be done. (33:37)
Here the words, “you were hiding in your heart what Allâh was to disclose,” refer to the fact that Allâh had informed the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) that he will marry Zainab (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) after she is divorced by Zaid (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam). The Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) knew that, ultimately, she is going to be divorced by Zaid, but, out of shame, he could not disclose it and when Zaid consulted him in the matter, he advised him to keep to his wife and not to divorce her.
From this it follows that the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) had been foretold by Allâh that Zainab was going to be divorced by her husband. But this information is not contained in the Holy Qur’ân. It was given to him through an unrecited revelation.
The second sentence is more significant in the context, that is, “We made you marry her.” Here Allâh Almighty declares that the marriage between the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) and Sayyidah Zainab (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) was contracted by an order of Allâh.This order is nowhere mentioned in the Holy Qur’ân. Still, the Holy Qur’ân affirms it. This is another confirmation of an order conveyed to the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) through an “unrecited revelation.”
Eighth Example: The Holy Qur’ân has repeatedly ordered the Muslims to establish salaah (the prayer) and to be steadfast in it. In the following verse, after repeating the same order, the Holy Qur’ân gives a special concession to the Muslims that, in the state of war, when they fear an attack from their enemy, they can perform the prayer in whatever way they can, either riding on horses or camels or walking on their feet. But after the danger of the enemy is over, they are ordered to perform the prayer in its normal way. This principle has been laid down in the following words:
Take due care of all the prayers and the middle prayer; and stand before Allâh in total devotion. But if you are in fear, then (pray) on foot or riding, but when you are in peace, then recite the name of Allâh in the way He taught you. (2:238-239)
A number of points are worth consideration in these verses:
Firstly, the verse assumes that there are more than one prayers obligatory on the Muslims, but the exact number of the prayers has not been given, neither in this verse nor at any other place in the Holy Qur’ân. That the number of obligatory prayers is five is only mentioned by the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam). The Holy Qur’ân, by saying “Take due care of all the prayers,” confirms what the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) prescribed for the Muslims.
Secondly, the verse lays special emphasis on the “Middle Prayer,” but does not define it. The definition has been left to the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam).
Thirdly, the most important sentence in relation to our subject is, “when you are in peace, then recite the name of Allâh in the way He taught you.” It goes without saying that the “recitation of the name of Allâh” means here “to perform the prayer” as the context does not permit any other meaning.
Now, the Holy Qur’ân directs the Muslims that in the state of peace they should perform the prayer in its normal way which has been taught to them by Allâh. It is an express indication that the normal way of performing prayers has been taught to the Muslims by Allâh Himself. But no such way has ever been mentioned in the Holy Qur’ân. There is no verse in the Holy Book mentioning the detailed way of performing prayer. It is only the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) who educated the Muslims as to how they are to perform it. But the Holy Qur’ân holds the teaching of the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) to be the teaching of Allâh.
It means that Allâh has taught the way of prayer to the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) through some “unrecited revelation” not contained in the Holy Qur’ân, and the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) taught it to the Muslims. Thus, the Muslims have been taught by Allâh through the teaching of the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam). However, the teaching of the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) is described in the holy verse as the teaching of Allâh, because it was based on the “unrecited revelation.”
Ninth Example: Certain hypocrites had not accompanied the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) in the expedition of Hudaibiyah. After that, when the Muslims resolved to proceed to the battle of Khayber, the Holy Prophet () declared that only the participants of Hudaibiyah shall be entitled to accompany him on this journey. The hypocrites who did not go to Hudaibiyah were now interested in their participation in the battle of Khaybar because according to their anticipation the Muslims were expected to gain from there sizeable spoils, which the hypocrites wanted to share. But the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam), inspite of their requests, did not allow them to participate in the battle.
This event has been referred to in the following verse of the Holy Qur’ân:
Those remaining behind will say, when you set forth after spoils to acquire them, “Let us follow you,”- desiring to change the words of Allâh. Say, “You shall not follow us; so Allâh has said earlier.” (48:15)
The emphasized words indicate that there was a previous word of Allâh barring the participation of the hypocrites in the battle of Khaybar, and confining the battle to the participants of Hudaibiyah. But no such word exists anywhere in the Holy Qur’ân. It was only a prophetic order. Still, Allâh Almighty describes it as His Own word. The reason is obvious. The Prophetic order was based on the order of Allâh received by him through some “unrecited revelation” which is not found in the Holy Qur’ân. Yet, it was a revelation, as certain as any word of Allâh.
Tenth Example: In the early days of his Prophethood, when the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) received the verses of the Holy Qur’ân revealed to him, he used to recite the same simultaneously, lest he should forget them. It was a strenuous exercise for him, because he felt it was much too difficult to listen to the revelation, to understand it correctly, and to learn it by heart, all at the same time. Allâh Almighty relieved him from this burden when He revealed the following verses of the Holy Qur’ân:
Move not your tongue with it in order to hasten it. It is on Us to gather it (in your heart) and to recite it. So, when We read it, follow its reading. Then it is on Us to explain it. (75:16-19)
In the last sentence, Allâh Almighty has promised the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) to explain the verses of the Holy Qur’ân to him. It is evident that this explanation is something separate from the Holy Qur’ân itself. It is not the Holy Qur’ân. It is its explanation or its exegesis. Therefore, it should necessarily be in some other form, distinct from the words of the Holy Book. And this is exactly what is meant by the “unrecited revelation.” But the two kinds of revelation, though different in their form, are both revealed to the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam); both are from Allâh; and both are to be believed and obeyed by the Muslims.
Eleventh Example: The Holy Qur’ân says to the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam):
And Allâh has revealed upon you the Book and the wisdom, and has taught you what you did not know and the grace of Allâh upon you has been great. (4:113)
In this verse the revelation of the Wisdom has been mentioned as separate from the revelation of the Book. It indicates that the wisdom referred to here is something additional to the Holy Qur’ân, and it has also been revealed to the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) by Allâh Almighty.
Then the Holy Qur’ân proceeds to say: “And (Allâh) has taught you what you did not know.” It means that Allâh has not only revealed the Book, but has also revealed the Wisdom, and also taught the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) what he did not know before. This teaching includes all kinds of directions given by Him to His prophet, either through the Holy Book or through some “unrecited revelation” in the light of which the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) performed his functions as a messenger of Allâh.
Twelfth Example: The Holy Qur’ân has summarised the various kinds of revelation in the following words:
And it is not possible for a human being that Allâh should speak to him, except by way of revelation or from behind a curtain, or that He should send a messenger and he reveals by His leave what He wills. (42:51)
Now, out of these three modes, the revelation of the Holy Qur’ân was carried out through the third one, namely, through an angel who is identified in the verse by the word, “messenger.” It is clearly settled by some other verses:
Say: Whoever be an enemy to Jibreel (Gabriel, the angel)—it is he who has brought it (the Qur’ân) down upon your heart by the permission of Allâh. (2:97)
And truly it (the Qur’ân) is the revelation of the Lord of the worlds, brought down by the Faithful Spirit upon your heart, that you may be one of the warners, in a clear Arabic tongue. (26:192-195)
These verses are quite explicit on the point that the Holy Qur’ân has been revealed through an angel, named in the first verse as Jibreel, and in the second one as the Faithful Spirit; but the verse (42:51) quoted above describes that there are two more ways of revelation. These two modes have also been used in the case of the Holy Prophet (). It means that the revelation sent down to the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) was not confined to the Holy Qur’ân, but there were other revelations, too. These revelations are termed as “unrecited revelation.”
These are sixteen verses, which affirm not only the existence of the “unrecited revelation” but also its reliability and authenticity, and its binding nature. It is not intended here to produce all the material available in the Holy Qur’ân to establish this kind of revelation. The purpose was to give some examples only, which has, perhaps, been substantially served. But before proceeding further, it will be useful to recollect and summarize the conclusions that stand proved in the light of the Holy Qur’ân as discussed above:
(1) The function of the Holy Prophet () like other prophets is not only to convey the divine Book. He is also to teach the Book, to teach the wisdom and to make people pure by training them practically.
(2) The “Obedience of the Holy Prophet” () is as necessary as the obedience of Allâh; because the latter has always been mentioned in the Holy Qur’ân combined with the former.
(3) The obedience of the Holy Prophet () in practical is the obedience of Allâh; and the latter cannot be carried out except through the former.
(4) The Muslims are bound not only to obey the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam), but they are also under an obligation to follow him.
(5) Whatever the Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihe Wassallam) says or does in his capacity of a Messenger is always based on, or confirmed by, a revelation from Allâh.
(6) This revelation is sometimes contained in the Holy Qur’ân and called the recited revelation, and sometimes it is sent down in addition to the Holy Qur’ân, and the same is termed as “unrecited revelation.”
