Responsibilities of Rasool Allah (Peace Be Upon Him)

by Irshad Mahmood - Director, Siraat-al-Mustaqeem Dawah Centre

… The Decision is for Allah only … (Al_Quraan_006.057)

And if he (the messenger) had fabricated against Us some of the sayings, We would certainly have seized him by the right hand, Then We would certainly have cut off his aorta (life-artery). (Al_Quraan_069.044-046)

Duaa for Discussing the Critical Issues:

After all we are human being and may be wrong on some point, so we need to make a very special Duaa:

O Allah! Guide us and help us. If I am wrong, O Allah! Correct me. If others are wrong, O Allah correct them. If we all are wrong, O Allah correct all of us. AMEEN.

”Rabbi Zidnee Aailmaa”. (O my Lord! Increase me in knowledge). Ref: Al_Quraan_020.114 AMEEN.

”Rabbishrah Lee Sadree Wayassir Lee Amree Wahlul AAuqdatan Min Lisanee Yafqahoo Qawlee”. (O my Lord! expand my breast; And ease my task for me; And loose the knot from my tongue; So they may understand what I say). Ref: Al_Quraan_020.025 – 028) AMEEN.

”Rabbana Hab Lana Min Azwajina Wathurriyyatina Qurrata aAAyunin WajjAAalna Lilmuttaqeena imamaan”. (O our Lord! grant us in our wives and our offspring the joy of our eyes, and give us (the grace) to lead the righteous). Ref: Al_Quraan_025.074. AMEEN.

Laughing Stock of Allah:

… Make not the revelations of Allah a Laughing Stock (by your behavior), but remember Allah’s grace upon you and that which He hath revealed unto you of the Scripture and of wisdom, whereby He doth exhort you. Observe your duty to Allah and know that Allah is Aware of all things. (Al_Quraan_002.231)

Believing on Some Ayaat while Rejecting others:

Then is it the only part of the book you believe (practice) in, and do you reject the rest of it? But what is the reward for those among you who behave (practice) like this but disgrace in this life? And on the Day of Judgment they shall be consigned to the most grievous penalty. For Allah is not unmindful of what you do. (Al_Quraan_002.085)

Looking for another Religion:

Do they seek for other than the religion of Allah? While all creatures in the heavens and on earth have, willing or unwilling, bowed to his will (accepted Islaam), and to him shall they be brought back (Al_Quraan_003.083)

Journey by Night:

Glory to (Allah) who did take his servant for a journey from the sacred Masjid to the farthest Masjid, whose precincts we did bless, in order that we might show him some of our Signs: for he is the one who heareth and seeth (all things). (Al_Quraan_017.01)

Rasool Allah (Peace Be Upon Him) was not able to recite any Book before Quraan:

And thou wast not (able) to recite a Book before this (Book came), nor art thou (Able) to transcribe it with thy right hand: In that case, indeed, would the talkers of vanities have doubted. (Al_Quraan_029.048)

Reason for sending Quraan:

A Book (Quraan) revealed unto thee, so let thy heart be oppressed no more by any difficulty on that account, that with it (the Quraan) thou mightest warn (the erring) and teach the Believers. (Al_Quraan_007.002)

Duty of Rasool Allah (Peace Be Upon Him):

…It is Thy duty ONLY to convey the message (unto them as is). (Al_Quraan_003.020)

O Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) We have sent thee as a Witness, a Bearer of Glad Tidings, and a Warner, And as one who invites to Allah’s (Grace) by His leave, and as a Lamp spreading Light. (Al_Quraan_033.045 – 046)

Say: It is not in my power to cause you harm, or to bring you to right conduct. (Al_Quraan_072.021)

We sent not a Messenger, but to be obeyed, in accordance with the Will of Allah … (Al_Quraan_004.064)

O Messenger! Proclaim (all) the (Message as is) which hath been sent to thee from the Lord. If thou didst not, thou wouldst not have fulfilled and proclaimed His Mission. And Allah will defend thee from men (who mean mischief). For Allah guideth not those who reject Faith. (Al_Quraan_005.067)

We sent not a Messenger, but to be obeyed, in accordance with the Will of Allah … (Al_Quraan_004.064)

But if they turn away, thy duty is only to preach the clear message. (Al_Quraan_016.082)

Halaal and Haraam: Muslim Never makes Halaal as Haraam and vise versa:

O ye believe! Forbid not the good things, which Allah hath made lawful for you, and transgress not. Lo! Allah loveth not transgressors. (Al_Quraan_005.087)

Say: Who hath forbidden the adornment of Allah, which He hath brought forth for His bondmen, and good things of His providing?… (Al_Quraan_007.032)

O Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him)! Why holdest thou to be forbidden that which Allah has made lawful to thee? Thou seekest to please thy consorts. But Allah is Oft-Forgiving. Most Merciful. Allah has already ordained for you, (O men), the dissolution of your oaths (in some cases): and Allah is your Protector, and He is Full of Knowledge and Wisdom. (Al_Quraan_066.001 – 002)

Rasool Allah (Peace Be Upon Him) did NOT had Authority to change any of the Ayaat of Quraan:

But when our Clear Signs are rehearsed unto them, those who rest not their hope on their meeting with Us, say: bring us reading other than this, or change this, say: it is not for me, of my own accord, to change it: I follow Naught but what is revealed unto me (as is): if I were to disobey my Lord, I should myself fear the Penalty of a great day (to come). Say: If Allah had to willed, I should not have rehearsed it to you, nor would he have made it known to you. A whole lifetime before this have I tarried amongst you: will ye not then understand? (Al_Quraan_010.015 – 016)

And recite (and teach) what has been revealed to thee of the Book of thy Lord: none can change his words, and none wilt thou find as a refuge other than him. (Al_Quraan_018.027)

Allah Warned Rasool Allah (Peace Be Upon Him) not to change Halaal to Haraam etc and break the oath:

O Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him)! Why holdest thou to be forbidden that which Allah has made lawful to thee? Thou seekest to please thy consorts. But Allah is Oft-Forgiving. Most Merciful. Allah has already ordained for you, (O men), the dissolution of your oaths (in some cases): and Allah is your Protector, and He is Full of Knowledge and Wisdom. (Al_Quraan_066.001 – 002)

(So Rasool Allah (Peace Be Upon Him) cannot change Halaal to Haraam, or Haraam to Halaal, or Tougher Laws to MORE Tougher Laws, or Tougher Laws to EASIER Laws)

Allah’s Word doesn’t Change:

… No Change can there be in the words of Allah … (Al_Quraan_010.064)

Not a single Messenger can bring a Sign by his own without the Help of Allah:

… And it was never the part of a messenger to bring a Sign except as Allah permitted (or commanded … (Al_Quraan_013.038)

Rasool Allah (Peace Be Upon Him) was not able to Make the Any Dead People Listen: Can you make any?

So verily thou canst not make the dead to hear, nor canst thou make the deaf to hear the call, when they show their backs and turn away. Nor canst thou lead back the blind from their straying: only those wilt thou make to hear, who believe in Our Signs and submit (their wills in Islaam). (Al_Quraan_030.052 – 053)

Knowledge of Future is with Allah only: Messenger did not know when & where he would die:

Then, when We decreed (Solomon’s {Peace Be Upon Him}) death, nothing showed them his death except a little worm of the earth, which kept (slowly) gnawing away at his staff: so when he fell down, the Jinns saw plainly that if they had known the unseen, they would Not have tarried in the humiliating Penalty (of their Task). (Al_Quraan_034.014)

Verily the knowledge of the Hour is with Allah (Alone). It is He Who knows rain, and He Who knows what is in the wombs. Nor does any one (including Messengers) know what it is that he will earn on tomorrow: nor does any one (including Messengers) know in what land he is to die. Verily with Allah is full knowledge and He is acquainted (with all things). (Al_Quraan_031.034)

Men ask thee concerning the Hour: say, The knowledge thereof is with Allah (alone): and what will make thee understand? Perchance the Hour is nigh. (Al_Quraan_033.063)

Say (O Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him), to the disbelievers): I say not unto you (that) I possess the treasures of Allah, nor that I have knowledge of the Unseen; and I say not unto you: Lo! I am an angel. I follow only that which is inspired in me. Say: Are the blind man and the seer equal? Will ye not then take thought? [Al_Quraan_006.050]

Say (O Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him): I have no power over any good or harm to my self except as Allah willeth. If I had knowledge of the Unseen, I should have multiplied all good and no evil should have touched me: I am but a Warner, and a bringer of glad tidings to those who have Faith. [Al_Quraan_007.188]

To get Success Leave the Fore-tell behind and Start Helping Allah:

O ye who believe! Strong Drink (Intoxicants), gambling, idols and divining arrows are only an infamy of Satan’s handiwork. Leave it aside in order that ye may succeed. [Al_Quraan_005.090]

Help Allah to get Help from Allah:

O ye who believe! If ye will Help Allah, He will Help you, and plant your feet firmly. (Al_Quraan_047.007)

Allah’s Favor has Already been Completed:

This day, I have Perfected your Religion for you and Completed my Favor unto you, and have chosen for you as Religion Al-Islaam. Whoso is forced by hunger, not by will, to sin: (for him) lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful. [Al_Quraan_005.003]

(Allah’s Favor has already been completed on us, so no new miracle may happen)

Astrology – Fore-teller – UNSEEN

Duaa for Discussing the Critical Issues:

After all we are human being and may be wrong on some point, so we need to make a very special Duaa:

O Allah! Guide us and help us. If I am wrong, O Allah! Correct me. If others are wrong, O Allah correct them. If we all are wrong, O Allah correct all of us. AMEEN.

”Rabbi Zidnee Aailmaa”. (O my Lord! Increase me in knowledge). Ref: Al_Quraan_020.114 AMEEN.

Muslim cannot be Astrologer or Fortuneteller:

(Allah’s Favor has already been completed on us, so no new miracle may happen)

Some people asked Allah's Apostle (Peace Be Upon Him) about the fore-tellers. He said. -They are nothing." They said, O Allah's Apostle (Peace Be Upon Him)! Sometimes they tell us of a thing which turns out to be true." Allah's Apostle (Peace Be Upon Him) said, "A Jinn snatches that true word and pours it into the ear of his friend (the foreteller) (as one puts something into a bottle). The foreteller then mixes with that word one hundred lies."

Narrated by Ayesha (Radi Allah Ta'lah Anha); Sahih Bukhari transmitted it. Vol 7: #657 of Sahih Bukhari.

Allah's Apostle (Peace Be Upon Him) said, "Whoever comes to fortune-tellers, and ask him about something, his prayer is NOT accepted for forty nights."

Narrated by Hafsah (Radi Allah Ta'lah Anha); Muslim transmitted it. Vol 2: #4391 of Mishkat al-Masabih.

Allah's Apostle (Peace Be Upon Him) said, "Whoever learns astrology, learns a branch of sorcery. He adds what he likes.

Narrated by Ibn Abbas (Radi Allah Ta'lah Anhu); Ahmad, Abu Dawud, Ibn Majah transmitted it. Vol 2: #4394 of Mishkat al-Masabih.

Allah's Apostle (Peace Be Upon Him) said, "Whoever acquires a branch of astrology for a purpose other than that for which Allah mentioned, has indeed acquired a branch of sorcery, An astrologer is a sooth-sayer and a sooth-sayer is sorcerer and a sorcerer is an unbeliever."

Narrated by Ibn Abbas (Radi Allah Ta'lah Anhu); Razin transmitted it. Vol 2: #4399 of Mishkat al-Masabih.

He who presumes that he would inform about what was going to happen tomorrow fabricates the greatest lie against Allah. And Allah says “Say thou [Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him)]: None in the heavens and the earth knoweth the UNSEEN except Allah”.

Narrated by Ayesha (Radi Allah Ta'lah Anha); Vol 1: #0337 of Sahih Muslim.

ECLIPSE is not a sign of someone’s death or birth etc, just offer additional prayers at the time of Eclipse:

The sun ECLIPSED in the lifetime of Allah's Apostle (Peace Be Upon Him) on the day when (his son) Ibrahim died. So the people said that the sun had ECLIPSED because of the death of Ibrahim. Allah's Apostle (Peace Be Upon Him) said, "The sun and the moon do not ECLIPSE because of the death or life (i.e. birth) of someone. When you see the ECLIPSE pray and invoke Allah."

Narrated by Al-Mughira bin Shu’ba; Vol-002, Book-018, Hadith-0153 of Sahih Bukhari.

The Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) said, “The sun and the moon do not ECLIPSE because of the death or life (i.e. birth) of someone but they are two signs amongst the signs of Allah. When you see them offer the prayers.”

Narrated by Ibn Umar; Vol-002, Book-018, Hadith-0152 of Sahih Bukhari.

A total lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth gets directly between the Sun and the Moon.

A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Earth and the Sun and casts its shadow on Earth’s surface.

In the light of above-mentioned Hadiths, HOW come Rasool Allah (Peace Be Upon Him) did Foretell about Imaam Mahdi and Dajjaal?

May be He (Peace Be Upon Him) didn’t. Not in Quraan and Authentic Hadith.

Knowledge of Future is with Allah only: Messenger did not know when & where he would die:

Men ask thee concerning the Hour: say, The knowledge thereof is with Allah (alone): and what will make thee understand? Perchance the Hour is nigh. (Al_Quraan_033.063)

Jesus / Isaa (Peace Be Upon Him) – Dead or Alive?

Duaa for Discussing the Critical Issues:

After all we are human being and may be wrong on some point, so we need to make a very special Duaa:

O Allah! Guide us and help us. If I am wrong, O Allah! Correct me. If others are wrong, O Allah correct them. If we all are wrong, O Allah correct all of us. AMEEN.

”Rabbi Zidnee Aailmaa”. (O my Lord! Increase me in knowledge). Ref: Al_Quraan_020.114 AMEEN.

The main reason why we don’t understand the concept and the meaning of Quraan could be as mentioned in the Quraan as, “ … And yet ye study the Scripture? Will ye not understand?” (Al_Quraan_002.044).

To understand about Jesus / Isaa (Peace Be Upon Him) Dead or Alive we need to do analysis of the Ayaat below:

There is none (not a single one) of the People of the book (including 1.5 Billion Muslims) but must believe in him (as only a Messenger of Allah) before his (Jesus Peace Be Upon Him) death. And on the Day of Resurrection (NOT Before), he (Jesus) will be a witness against them." (Al_Quraan_004.159)

First Proof:

The first proof that Jesus / Isaa (Peace Be Upon Him) is NOT Alive is this Ayaat itself, since it says that “on the Day of Resurrection (NOT Before), he (Jesus) will be a witness against them”, if Jesus / Isaa (Peace Be Upon Him) comes second time in this world then he will be witness in the world before the Day of Resurrection, which cannot be true according to the above mentioned Ayaat. The concept of Quraan cannot be wrong, BUT our pre-assumptions and our believe could be wrong.

Second Proof:

For the second proof, we need to understand the meaning of People of the Book (Scripture).

Jews are the People of the Book, since they believe on the Torah, which is one of the Book of Allah.

Christian are the People of the Book, since they believe on the Injeel (Bible), which is one of the Book of Allah.

Similarly Muslims are the People of the Book, since they believe on the Quraan, which is also one of the Book of Allah.

This is also another proof that Jesus / Isaa (Peace Be Upon Him) is not Alive, since in the above Ayaat it is mentioned that “none (not a single one) of the People of the book (including 1.5 Billion Muslims) but must believe in him (as only a Messenger of Allah) before his (Jesus {Peace Be Upon Him}) death“, and Alhamdulillaah, around 1.5 Billion Muslims around the world believe on Jesus / Isaa (Peace Be Upon Him) as Messenger of Allah.

Third Proof:

For the third proof, Allah said that he will take away Jesus / Isaa (Peace Be Upon Him) and no where he mentioned that he will send back Jesus / Isaa (Peace Be Upon Him) again for the second time, instead He mentioned that what ever we are arguing about him (Peace Be Upon Him), He will tell us on the day of Judgement and NOT before.

Behold Allah said: O Jesus / Isaa (Peace Be Upon Him) I will take thee and raise thee to myself and clear thee (of the falsehoods) of those who blaspheme; I will make those who follow thee superior to those who reject Faith, to the day of resurrection (not before): then shall ye all return unto me, and I will judge between you of the matters wherein ye dispute. (Al_Quraan_003.055)

To get Success Leave the Fore-tell behind and Start Helping Allah:

Help Allah to get Help from Allah:

O ye who believe! If ye will Help Allah, He will Help you, and plant your feet firmly. (Al_Quraan_047.007)

Allah’s Favor has Already been Completed:

(Allah’s Favor has already been completed on us, so no new miracle may happen)

Islaam will eventually come to all over the World:

Their intention is to extinguish the Allah’s light (by blowing) with their mouths, but Allah will complete His light, even though the Unbelievers may detest (it). [Al_Quraan_061.008]

Don’t waste your time in Foretelling and just do what Allah has commanded.

We Already have One living Miracles, The Quraan with us.

Allah’s Favor has already been completed on us.
