Prophet (s) remained an idol worshiper for 40 years
We read in Sahih al-Sirah al-Nabawyiah by Dr.Muhammad Rezq al-Tarhuni, volume 2 page 41:
“For forty years, He was on the faith of his people”.
Similarly we read:
Tafseer Al-Kabeer, Page 424, By Mohammad Fakhr ud-Din Razi
“Some people believe that in the beginning he (the Prophet) was a Kaffir. Then Allah (swt) guided him and made him a Prophet. Qalbee says : This verse “And He found thee wandering” means that that he was kafir among misguided people. Then Allah (swt) guided him to the path of Tauheed. Al-Sudi states that he (the Prophet) followed the faith of his Kaffir people for forty years”.
Tafsir al Kabir by Fakhruddin al Razi, Volume 8 page 424
Nasibi belief that Holy Prophet (s) was unaware of the correct religion and guidance
We read in Aysar al-Tafasir by Abu Bakr al-Jazaeri, volume 5 page 2070:
‘{And He found thee wandering, and He gave thee guidance.}’ means don’t know any religion nor guidance.
Salafi belief that the Prophet would eat haram meat
If you observe Salafis of today you will see how they strictly observe products to ensure that there are no haraam products. They will even enter restaurants with a halal sign and still ask the owner if the meat is halal. These are all precautionary measures, since no Muslim wishes to eat meat that has been incorrectly slaughtered. Its seems that Salafis are more conscious than the Prophet (s) since not only did he care about the type of meat he ate, since in their deviant world he (s) even ate meat prepared by Pagans! We read in Sahih Bukhari merits of the Ansar Volume 5, Book 58, Number 169:
Narrated ‘Abdullah bin ‘Umar:
The Prophet met Zaid bin ‘Amr bin Nufail in the bottom of (the valley of) Baldah before any Divine Inspiration came to the Prophet. A meal was presented to the Prophet but he refused to eat from it. (Then it was presented to Zaid) who said, “I do not eat anything which you slaughter in the name of your stone idols. I eat none but those things on which Allah’s Name has been mentioned at the time of slaughtering.” Zaid bin ‘Amr used to criticize the way Quraish used to slaughter their animals, and used to say, “Allah has created the sheep and He has sent the water for it from the sky, and He has grown the grass for it from the earth; yet you slaughter it in other than the Name of Allah. He used to say so, for he rejected that practice and considered it as something abominable.
A slightly extended version can found in Sahih Bukhari the Book of hunting, slaughtering Volume 7, Book 67, Number 407:
Narrated ‘Abdullah:
Allah’s Apostle said that he met Zaid bin ‘Amr Nufail at a place near Baldah and this had happened before Allah’s Apostle received the Divine Inspiration. Allah’s Apostle presented a dish of meat (that had been offered to him by the pagans) to Zaid bin ‘Amr, but Zaid refused to eat of it and then said (to the pagans), “I do not eat of what you slaughter on your stonealtars (Ansabs) nor do I eat except that on which Allah’s Name has been mentioned on slaughtering.”
Comment
We can see from this tradition that during the time of jahiliyya:
- Zaib b. Amr was stricter on adherence to Tauheed
- The Prophet (s) had no qualm with eating meat slaughtered in the names of Pagans whilst Zaid did
If these Nawasib suggest that there is no suggestion that the Prophet (s) ate pagan food allow us to present a tradition from Musnad ibn Hanbal on the authority of Nawafil bin Hisham bin Said bin Zaid:
“On one occasion the Prophet (s) was eating the type of meat with Abu Sufyan that hat been slaughtered in the name of idols, when Zaid was invited to partake in the meal he refused, the Prophet subsequently followed Zaid and stood up and from that point through to the declaration of Prophethood the Prophet never ate food slaughtered in the name of idols”
The excellence of Zaid bin Amr has been recorded in Sahih Bukhari, Volume 5, Book 58, Number 169 as follows:
Narrated Ibn ‘Umar: Zaid bin ‘Amr bin Nufail went to Sham, inquiring about a true religion to follow. He met a Jewish religious scholar and asked him about their religion. He said, “I intend to embrace your religion, so tell me some thing about it.” The Jew said, “You will not embrace our religion unless you receive your share of Allah’s Anger.” Zaid said, “‘I do not run except from Allah’s Anger, and I will never bear a bit of it if I have the power to avoid it. Can you tell me of some other religion?” He said, “I do not know any other religion except the Hanif.” Zaid enquired, “What is Hanif?” He said, “Hanif is the religion of (the prophet) Abraham who was neither a Jew nor a Christian, and he used to worship None but Allah (Alone)” Then Zaid went out and met a Christian religious scholar and told him the same as before. The Christian said, “You will not embrace our religion unless you get a share of Allah’s Curse.” Zaid replied, “I do not run except from Allah’s Curse, and I will never bear any of Allah’s Curse and His Anger if I have the power to avoid them. Will you tell me of some other religion?” He replied, “I do not know any other religion except Hanif.” Zaid enquired, “What is Hanif?” He replied, Hanif is the religion of (the prophet) Abraham who was neither a Jew nor a Christian and he used to worship None but Allah (Alone)” When Zaid heard their Statement about (the religion of) Abraham, he left that place, and when he came out, he raised both his hands and said, “O Allah! I make You my Witness that I am on the religion of Abraham.”
Comment
The Prophets were the best of creation and always lead pure lives, free from the sins around them. The pure lineage of Prophethood that was transferred through the loins of Abraham was a lineage that adhered to the faith of Ibrahim (as), wherein they were all believers in Tauheed. When they were all believers the suggestion that they would fill their stomachs with food slaughtered in the name of pagans in shameless, insults the lineage of Ibrahim (as) and is a serious assault on the excellent qualities of our Prophet (s). It is little wonder that Christian missionaries exploit such disgraceful references! Are we going to believe that the descendants of Abraham (as) from where the lineage of Prophets came turned their back on Tauheed and embraced pagan principles and even ate food slaughtered in the name of idols? Was the Prophet (s) not on the same conscious level as an ordinary man Zaid bin Amr who refused to eat such meat?
These references are just a natural progression for the shameless Salafis. Once they believe that the parents of the Prophet (s) were kaafirs it becomes perfectly logical for them to likewise believe that he adhered to the practices of jahiliyya, such as eating haram meat.
Salafi belief that the Prophet (s) would forget Quranic verses
We read in Sahih al Bukhari, Chapter on virtues of the Quran Volume 6, Book 61, Number 558:
Narrated Aisha:
Allah’s Apostle heard a man reciting the Qur’an at night, and said, “May Allah bestow His Mercy on him, as he has reminded me of such-and-such Verses of such-and-such Suras, which I was caused to forget.”
Comment
Just look at this Salafi belief! Is it acceptable that the divine verse that Allah (swt) revealed on the chest of the Prophet (s) were forgotten, so much so that a fallible Sahaba’s recitation re-ignited his memory? If we accept this Salafi belief then all teachings of the Prophet can be called into question. A Sahaba could do any action he wishes on the premises that the Prophet (s) had forgotten it! It in effect casts doubt on the Quran, with people asking whether such and such a verse was revealed in the complete manner we find it in the Quran. It is mere slander to accept the Salafi assertion that the Prophet (s) could forget divine verses, particularly when Allah (swt) says:
By degrees shall We teach thee to declare (the Message), so thou shalt not forget, (Surah Ala verse 6)
We also read in Sahih Muslim, the Book of Prayers Book 004, Number 1724:
‘Abdullah reported Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: What a wretched person is he amongst them who says: I have forgotten such and such a verse…”
Look at this the Salafi claim that the Prophet (s) was deeming wretched those that forget verse of the Quran and did such things himself!
Salafi belief that the Prophet (s) would urinate standing up
We read in Sahih Muslim, Book of purification Book 002, Number 0523:
Abu Wa’il reported: Abu Musa inflicted extreme rigour upon himself in the matter of urination and urinated in a bottle and said: When the skin of anyone amongst the people of Israel was besmeared with urine, he cut that portion with a cutter. Hudhaifa said: I wish that’your friend should not inflict such an extreme rigour. I and the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) were going together till we reached the dumping ground of filth behind an enclosure. He stood up as one among you would stand up. and he urinated, I tried to turn away from him, but he beckoned to me, so I went to him and I stood behind him, till he had relieved himself.
In the same chapter of Sahih Muslim Book 002, Number 0522:
Hudhaifa reported: I was with the Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) when he came to the dumping ground of filth belonging to a particular tribe. He urinated while standing, and I went aside. He (the Holy Prophet) asked me to come near him and I went so near to him that I stood behind his heels. He then performed ablution and wiped over his socks.
Comment
This Salafi belief depicts the Prophet of being completely ignorant of basically Islamic teachings! Just like ordinary people he would stand up and urinate. Filth such as urine and faeces that type that even animals don’t want on them are we going to believe that the Porphet (s) would urinate standing up and hence defile his clothes in the process? Was the Prophet (s) less careful of getting his clothes dirty than the Israelites and Abu Musa Ashari? The Israelis were so careful of cleanliness they would cut any cloth area smeared in urine but the Prophet (s) according to the Salafis would stand urinating and risk getting his clothes dirty in the process.
Curiously the above cited tradition contradicts this one from Ayesha
Whoever told you that the Prophet (Sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) urinated standing, do not believe him. He did not urinated except sitting.’
Tirmidhi Hadith no.12 and Nasai Hadith no. 29) at-Tirmidhi said: ‘This is the best and most correct saying in this matter – also because it is better to guard and protect him from being splashed with his own urine.’
Salafi belief that the house of the Prophet (s) was a house of singing
A similar narration in Sahih Bukhari, Volume 2, Book 15, Number 70 reads as follows:
Narrated Aisha:
Allah’s Apostle (p.b.u.h) came to my house while two girls were singing beside me the songs of Buath (a story about the war between the two tribes of the Ansar, the Khazraj and the Aus, before Islam). The Prophet (p.b.u.h) lay down and turned his face to the other side. Then Abu Bakr came and spoke to me harshly saying, “Musical instruments of Satan near the Prophet (p.b.u.h) ?” Allah’s Apostle (p.b.u.h) turned his face towards him and said, “Leave them.” When Abu Bakr became inattentive, I signalled to those girls to go out and they left.
Comment
Look how shameless these Nasabis are. We would urge these shameless creatures to invite Salafi girls into their bedrooms on the day of Eid so that they can sign before them! Disturbingly these filthy people attribute this rubbish to the Prophet knowing that there are explicit narrations that stipulate that music in one’s home acts as a barrier to Allah (swt)’s mercy, as can be evidenced this Hadith:
Narrated Abu Malik Al-Ashari:
“The Messenger (pbuh) of Allah (SWT) said, “Some people of my Ummah will drink wine, calling it by other than its real name, merriment will be made for them through the playing of musical instruments and the singing of lady singers. Allah will cleave the earth under them and turn others into monkeys and swines.
Ibn Ma’jah, Volume 5 Hadith No.4020
We read in Sahih Bukhari, Book of Drinks Volume 7, Book 69, Number 494v:
“Narrated Abu ‘Amir or Abu Malik Al-Ash’ari:
that he heard the Prophet saying, “From among my followers there will be some people who will consider illegal sexual intercourse, the wearing of silk, the drinking of alcoholic drinks and the use of musical instruments, as lawful. And there will be some people who will stay near the side of a mountain and in the evening their shepherd will come to them with their sheep and ask them for something, but they will say to him, ‘Return to us tomorrow.’ Allah will destroy them during the night and will let the mountain fall on them, and He will transform the rest of them into monkeys and pigs and they will remain so till the Day of Resurrection.”
Salafi belief that the house of the Prophet (s) was devoid of Allah (swt)’s mercy
We read in Sahih Bukhari Volume 8 Hadith 151:
Narrated ‘Aisha:
I used to play with the dolls in the presence of the Prophet, and my girl friends also used to play with me. When Allah’s Apostle used to enter (my dwelling place) they used to hide themselves, but the Prophet would call them to join and play with me. (The playing with the dolls and similar images is forbidden, but it was allowed for ‘Aisha at that time, as she was a little girl, not yet reached the age of puberty.)
We read in Sunan Abu Daud Book 41, Number 4914:
Narrated Ayesha, Ummul Mu’minin:
When the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) arrived after the expedition to Tabuk or Khayber (the narrator is doubtful), the draught raised an end of a curtain which was hung in front of her store-room, revealing some dolls which belonged to her. He asked: What is this? She replied: My dolls. Among them he saw a horse with wings made of rags, and asked: What is this I see among them? She replied: A horse. He asked: What is this that it has on it? She replied: Two wings. He asked: A horse with two wings? She replied: Have you not heard that Solomon had horses with wings? She said: Thereupon the Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) laughed so heartily that I could see his molar teeth.
Comment
We can see from the above traditions that dolls were present in the home of the Prophet (s). Worryingly, there exist traditions that suggest that the keeping of such images is a major sin in the eyes of Allah (swt).
We read in Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 54, Number 539:
Narrated Abu Talha:
The Prophet said, “Angels do not enter a house witch has either a dog or a picture in it.”
Sahih Bukhari Book of Dress Volume 7, Book 72, Number 844:
Narrated ‘Aisha:
I bought a cushion having pictures on it. When Allah’s Apostle saw it, he stopped at the gate and did not enter. I noticed the signs of hatred (for that) on his face! I said, “O Allah’s Apostle! I turn to Allah and His Apostle in repentance! What sin have I committed?” He said, “What about this cushion?” I said, ‘I bought it for you to sit on and recline on.” Allah’s Apostle said, “The makers of these pictures will be punished (severely) on the Day of Resurrection and it will be said to them, ‘Make alive what you have created.’” He added, “Angels do not enter a house in which there are pictures.”
Comment
If a house containing pictures will curtail the Angels of Mercy from entering, with the painter in the deepest Hell, how is it plausible to believe that the Prophet (s) would allow his wife and friends to play with dolls in that same house. Is that not the same as seeking to capture imagery? Is it plausible that his home would become a doll playing session wherein girls would gather and play until Aisha’s fun was satiated? Are Nawasib prepared to accept that Aisha would indulge in activities that were prohibited by the Shariah?
