My Shaykh had granted this humble mendicant the required permission to translate this work of the great Mujaddid. This transpired in Madinah Al-Munawwarah, in the year 2013. By the Grace of Allah Ta‟ala, it has now come to completion. Book launched at the hands of the successor and blessed son of my Shaykh, Qadhi Mufti Muhammad „Asjad Raza Khan Al-Qaadiri [may Allah preserve him]. Released in Masjid E Hasanayn in presence of Sunni Ulama of South Africa Pretoria, South Africa Date: Friday, 31 January 2020 Page | 6 Preface امحلد هللا رب العاملني والصلوة والسﻻم عىل ارشف املرسلني وعىل اهل و حصبه و حزبه امجعني Truth be told, this literature is a masterpiece. It is authored by the Imam of the Ahl as-Sunnah, the senior Shaykh of the scholars of Islam, the erudite polymath of over sixty branches of knowledge, Ahmad Rida Al-Qaadiri Al-Baraylawi [ ]. The content of this epistle overflows with his knowledge of the Qur‟an, Hadith, Fiqh, Aqaaid, Mantiq, Usool, Tafseer, Ilm al-kalaam and Tasawwuf. The topic and ruling of this literature is self-explanatory in its name. The rest that follows, in this book, is its comprehensive augmentation. Two reasons inspired me to translate this book: a) the need of an English literature that disproves the actions of the ignorant individuals who prostrate to the pious personalities and their graves; and b) the profound requirement within the English world that academically disproves the self-concocted theory that Ahmad Rida Khan and his followers encourage grave worship. Often it is heard by the instigators when they say „he was a grave worshipper‟ or they attach the name „Barelwi‟ to anybody who prostrates before a grave. This book is the manifest answer to those accusers who have lied and belied. The translation of this work was highly engrossing work but in the end it was for the noble cause of serving the pristine Deen of Allah. He has raised the dignity of human beings by prohibiting them to bow down or prostrate before any of His creation. My dislike for lengthy prefaces and unnecessary information compels me to begin this masterpiece, in the Name of Allah – the All-Powerful! Tehseen Raza Hamdani Nuri Page | 7 Page | 8 QUESTION 1 What do the scholars of the pristine religion say about Zaid who claims that the prostration of reverence [Sajda-e- taa‟zimi]1 for a „Pir‟ (spiritual mentor) is still permissible; and he substantiates this by referring to the episode of the Angelic prostration for Prophet Adam [ ]2, the prostration for Prophet Yusuf [ ]3 and the prostration of the magicians for Prophet Musa [ ] – for which he quotes: ُ فَألؼِْىَ ٱل َّس َح َرةُ َسا ِج ِدي َن 4 “Now they fell down prostrated” „Amr clarifies that the prostration of reverence was permissible in the former generations, however in the 5 ,ﷺ Shari‟ah of the esteemed Prophet, Muhammad Mustafa this practice is abrogated as it is mentioned in Tafseer-e- Jalaalayn6, Madaarik7, Khaazin8, Ruh-ul-Bayaan9, Jaamiul- Bayaan10, Tafseer-e-Kabir11, Tafseer-e-Azeezi12 and so forth. 1 Also known as „Sajdah Tahiyyah‟.These two wordings are used interchangeably in this monograph. 2 Qur‟an (2:34), (7:11), (17:61), (18:50), (20:116) 3 Qur‟an (12:100) 4 Qur‟an (26:46) 5 The sacred law revealed to Rasulullah SalAllahu „alayhi wasallam 6 Tafseer Jalaalayn – a bi-authored commentary of the Holy Qur‟an by the two authors of the same appellation: Jalaalud-Din Al-Mahalli [d.911 AH] and Jalaalud-Din As-Suyuti [918 AH] [may Allah be pleased with them]. It was initiated by Mahalli in 905 A.H and completed by his student, As-Suyuti, in the 911 A.H. Page | 9 As for the magicians; they were perfused with the truth and therefore fell into prostration for Almighty Allah, not for Prophet Musa [ ], as it is mentioned: قَالُواْ ا َم َّنا بِ َر ِّب ٱلْ َعالَ ِمي َن ۝ َر ِّب ُمو َسى َو َها ُرو َن ۝ “They said, „We believe in the Lord of the Worlds - the Lord of Musa and Harun.‟13 Zaid replies that the Qur‟anic verses that exemplify historical narratives – the ruling of abrogation and non-abrogation14 does not apply, as it is mentioned in Nur al-Anwaar15, therefore the ruling of permissibility, of reverential prostration, is sustained. 7 A persian commentary of the Qur‟an also known as Tafseer Nasafi by Imam Abu Hafs Najm ad-Din Umar ibn Muhammad An-Nasafi [d.537 AH] 8 Qur‟anic commentary authored by Imam Ali ibn Muhammad ibn Ibraahim Al-Baghdadi [d.741 AH] – popularly known as Al- Khaazin. 9 Commentary of the Qur‟an authored by Imam Ismail Haqqi [d. 1137 A.H] 10 Also known as Tafseer ibn Jarir authored by Imam Muhammad ibn Jarir At-Tabari [d. 310 A.H] 11 Also known as Mafaatihul Ghayb which is authored by Imam FakhrudDin Raazi [d. 606 A.H] 12 Authored by Shaykh Abd Al-Aziz Muhaddith Dehlawi [d. 1239 A.H], also known as Fath ul Azeez. 13 Qur‟an (26:47 - 48) 14 A verse for which a ruling is nullified

  • Scout Uniform, Scout Sign, Salute and Handshake
    In this Topic: Participation Promise and Law Scout Uniform, Scout Salute and Scout Handshake Scouts and Flags Scouting History Discussion with the Scout Leader Introducing Tenderfoot Level The Journey Life in the Troop is a journey. As in any journey one embarks on, there needs to be proper preparation for the adventure ahead. This is important so as to steer clear of obstacles and perils, which, with good foresight, can often be avoided. As Scouts we follow our simple motto: Be Prepared! With this in mind you can start your preparations for the journey ahead… The Tenderfoot This level offers a starting point for a new member in the troop. For those Cubs whose time has come to move up from the pack, the Tenderfoot level is a stepping stone linking the pack with the troop. For those scouts who have joined from outside the group, this will be the beginning of their scouting life. How do I achieve this level? The five sections in this level can be done in any order. If you are a Cub Scout moving up from the pack, you will have already started the Cub Scout link badge. The Tenderfoot level is started at the same time. As you can see some of the requirements are the same for both awards. If you have just joined the scouting movement as part of the troop, this level will provide you with all the basic information to help you learn what scouting is all about. Look at the sheet on the next page so that you are able to keep track of your progress.

  • Boy Scout Joining Requirements
    Other Joining Requirements from page 4 of the Boy Scout Handbook Demonstrate the Scout Sign, Salute, and Handshake Scout Sign The Scout sign shows you are a Scout. Give it each time you recite the Scout Oath and Law. When a Scout or Scouter raises the Scout sign, all Scouts should make the sign, too, and come to silent attention. To give the Scout sign, cover the nail of the little finger of your right hand with your right thumb, then raise your right arm bent in a 90-degree angle, and hold the three middle fingers of your hand upward. Those fingers stand for the three parts of the Scout Oath. Your thumb and little finger touch to represent the bond that unites Scouts through out the world. Scout Salute The Scout salute shows respect. Use it to salute the flag of the United States of America. You may also salute a Scout leader or another Scout. Give the Scout salute by forming the Scout sign with your right hand and then bringing that hand upward until your forefinger touches the brim of your hat or the arch of your right eyebrow. The palm of your hand should not show. Scout Handshake The Scout handshake is made with the hand nearest the heart and is offered as a token of friendship. Extend your left hand to another Scout and firmly grasp his left hand. The fingers do not interlock. Describe the Scout Badge The badge is shaped like the north point on an old compass. The design resembles an arrowhead or a trefoil – a flower with three leaves.
