Pagans in Hadith Bukhari pagan Word count: 30,260 Bukhari 645,745 4.69 Volume 1, Book 7, Number 340: Narrated 'Imran: Once we were traveling with the Prophet and we carried on traveling till the last part of the night and then we (halted at a place) and slept (deeply). There is nothing sweeter than sleep for a traveler in the last part of the night. So it was only the heat of the sun that made us to wake up and the first to wake up was so and so, then so and so and then so and so (the narrator 'Auf said that Abu Raja' had told him their names but he had forgotten them) and the fourth person to wake up was 'Umar bin Al-Khattab. And whenever the Prophet used to sleep, nobody would wake up him till he himself used to get up as we did not know what was happening (being revealed) to him in his sleep. So, 'Umar got up and saw the condition of the people, and he was a strict man, so he said, "Allahu Akbar" and raised his voice with Takbir, and kept on saying loudly till the Prophet got up because of it. When he got up, the people informed him about what had happened to them. He said, "There is no harm (or it will not be harmful). Depart!" So they departed from that place, and after covering some distance the Prophet stopped and asked for some water to perform the ablution. So he performed the ablution and the call for the prayer was pronounced and he led the people in prayer. After he finished from the prayer, he saw a man sitting aloof who had not prayed with the people. He asked, "O so and so! What has prevented you from praying with us?" He replied, "I am Junub and there is no water. " The Prophet said, "Perform Tayammum with (clean) earth and that is sufficient for you." Then the Prophet proceeded on and the people complained to him of thirst. Thereupon he got down and called a person (the narrator 'Auf added that Abu Raja' had named him but he had forgotten) and 'Ali, and ordered them to go and bring water. So they went in search of water and met a woman who was sitting on her camel between two bags of water. They asked, "Where can we find water?" She replied, "I was there (at the place of water) this hour yesterday and my people are behind me." They requested her to accompany them. She asked, "Where?" They said, "To Allah's Apostle ." She said, "Do you mean the man who is called the Sabi, (with a new religion)?" They replied, "Yes, the same person. So come along." They brought her to the Prophet and narrated the whole story. He said, "Help her to dismount." The Prophet asked for a pot, then he opened the mouths of the bags and poured some water into the pot. Then he closed the big openings of the bags and opened the small ones and the people were called upon to drink and water their animals. So they all watered their animals and they (too) all quenched their thirst and also gave water to others and last of all the Prophet gave a pot full of water to the person who was Junub and told him to pour it over his body. The woman was standing and watching all that which they were doing with her water. By Allah, when her water bags were returned the looked like as if they were more full (of water) than they had been before (Miracle of Allah's Apostle) Then the Prophet ordered us to collect something for her; so dates, flour and Sawiq were collected which amounted to a good meal that was put in a piece of cloth. She was helped to ride on her camel and that cloth full of food-stuff was also placed in front of her and then the Prophet said to her, "We have not taken your water but Allah has given water to us." She returned home late. Her relatives asked her: "O so and so what has delayed you?" She said, "A strange thing! Two men met me and took me to the man who is called the Sabi' and he did such and such a thing. By Allah, he is either the greatest magician between this and this (gesturing with her index and middle fingers raising them towards the sky indicating the heaven and the earth) or he is Allah's true Apostle." Afterwards the Muslims used to attack the pagans around her abode but never touched her village. One day she said to her people, "I think that these people leave you purposely. Have you got any inclination to Islam?" They obeyed her and all of them embraced Islam. Abu 'Abdultah said: The word Saba'a means "The one who has deserted his old religion and embraced a new religion." Abul 'Ailya said, "The Sabis are a sect of people of the Scripture who recite the Book of Psalms." Volume 1, Book 8, Number 365: Narrated Abu Huraira: On the Day of Nahr (10th of Dhul-Hijja, in the year prior to the last Hajj of the Prophet when Abu Bakr was the leader of the pilgrims in that Hajj) Abu Bakr sent me along with other announcers to Mina to make a public announcement: "No pagan is allowed to perform Hajj after this year and no naked person is allowed to perform the Tawaf around the Ka'ba. Then Allah's Apostle sent 'All to read out the Surat Bara'a (At-Tauba) to the people; so he made the announcement along with us on the day of Nahr in Mina: "No pagan is allowed to perform Hajj after this year and no naked person is allowed to perform the Tawaf around the Ka'ba." Volume 1, Book 8, Number 420: Narrated Anas: When the Prophet arrived Medina he dismounted at 'Awali-i-Medina amongst a tribe called Banu 'Amr bin 'Auf. He stayed there For fourteen nights. Then he sent for Bani An-Najjar and they came armed with their swords. As if I am looking (just now) as the Prophet was sitting over his Rahila (Mount) with Abu Bakr riding behind him and all Banu An-Najjar around him till he dismounted at the courtyard of Abu Aiyub's house. The Prophet loved to pray wherever the time for the prayer was due even at sheep-folds. Later on he ordered that a mosque should be built and sent for some people of Banu-An-Najjar and said, "O Banu An-Najjar! Suggest to me the price of this (walled) piece of land of yours." They replied, "No! By Allah! We do not demand its price except from Allah." Anas added: There were graves of pagans in it and some of it was unleveled and there were some date- palm trees in it. The Prophet ordered that the graves of the pagans be dug out and the unleveled land be level led and the date-palm trees be cut down . (So all that was done). They aligned these cut date-palm trees towards the Qibla of the mosque (as a wall) and they also built two stone side-walls (of the mosque). His companions brought the stones while reciting some poetic verses. The Prophet was with them and he kept on saying, "There is no goodness except that of the Hereafter, O Allah! So please forgive the Ansars and the emigrants. " Volume 1, Book 8, Number 465: Narrated 'Aisha: (the wife of the Prophet) I had seen my parents following Islam since I attained the age of puberty. Not a day passed but the Prophet visited us, both in the mornings and evenings. My father Abii Bakr thought of building a mosque in the courtyard of his house and he did so. He used to pray and recite the Qur'an in it. The pagan women and their children used to stand by him and look at him with surprise. Abu Bakr was a Softhearted person and could not help weeping while reciting the Quran. The chiefs of the Quraish pagans became afraid of that (i.e. that their children and women might be affected by the recitation of Quran)." Volume 2, Book 13, Number 11: Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Umar: Umar bin Al-Khattab saw a silken cloak (being sold) at the gate of the Mosque and said to Allah's Apostle, "I wish you would buy this to wear on Fridays and also on occasions of the arrivals of the delegations." Allah's Apostle replied, "This will be worn by a person who will have no share (reward) in the Hereafter." Later on similar cloaks were given to Allah's Apostle and he gave one of them to 'Umar bin Al-Khattab. On that 'Umar said, "O Allah's Apostle! You have given me this cloak although on the cloak of Atarid (a cloak merchant who was selling that silken cloak at the gate of the mosque) you passed such and such a remark." Allah's Apostle replied, "I have not given you this to wear". And so 'Umar bin Al-Khattab gave it to his pagan brother in Mecca to wear. Volume 2, Book 16, Number 116: Narrated 'Asim: I asked Anas bin Malik about the Qunut. Anas replied, "Definitely it was (recited)". I asked, "Before bowing or after it?" Anas replied, "Before bowing." I added, "So and so has told me that you had informed him that it had been after bowing." Anas said, "He told an untruth (i.e.

  • Twelve Years Old, While Some Say He Was Eighteen Years Old
    SANKORE' Institute of Islamic - African Studies International www.siiasi.org ! " ! Kitaab ‘l-Jihaad (The Book of Military Struggle) 1 1 The etymological root of the word ‘jihaad ’ (military struggle) is from the expression ‘exertion’ ( jahd) which means hardship ( mashaqqa ) and energetic capability ( taaqa ). According to the shari`a it means waging combat and fighting against enemies, which comprises the exertion and emission of utmost capacity in war, or words, or what is connected to it. The one who struggles ( jaahid ) against the enemy, is a mujaahid and jihaad is his actual combat; thus he is the one who struggles in the Way of Allah. Allah ta`ala says: “ …if indeed you go out in jihaad in My Way seeking My pleasure .” Allah ta`ala says: “Say: if your fathers, sons, brothers, wives, relatives, the wealth you have acquired, the merchandise for which you fear loss, and dwellings you desire are more dearer to you than Allah, His Messenger and jihaad in His Way ”; that is in giving victory to the religion of Allah and adhering to His pleasure. This is evidence of the merits of jihaad , and it taking preference over all the things which bring comfort to the soul and its attachments to family and wealth. In the two above cited Qur’anic verses is clear proof against the collaborators in these times who falsely claim that the expression ‘ jihaad ’ is not utilized in the Qur’an in the context of combat and military. Realize, that this claim is a lie from the lower soul, and is taking reliance upon false interpretation ( ta'wil baatil ).

Report ​ ​ ​ ​ Marriages in Muhammad's tribe ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Introduction A database for given project was provided by Dr. Majied Robinson with the title "Marriages in Muhammad's tribe". The database was represented in multiple tables, such as "Marriage Database", which is the main dataset with all the data and multiple sub-databases for every tribe and clan represented there (e.g. "Qurayshi marriages by clan"). The information of marriages in pre-Islamic and early Islamic period were classified by tribes or clans (subtribes). Aside from basic information such as names of men and women, tribes(subtribes) of both of them, number of children they had, generations of men and women were also indicated (Figure 1). ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Figure 1.

  • Human Ignorance Jahiliyyah
    Human Ignorance ( Jahiliyyah ): Past & Present Ayaz Khan ∗ Abstract The main theme of this article is that the man of today is as ignorant and arrogant as the Makkan Merchants were at the time of Revelation of the Holy Qur’an and the living Sunnah of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). By implication it is contended that Islam is as relevant to our predicament as it was relevant to the Makkan non-believers. So if we dream about the resurgence of Islam, we are obliged to return to the Qur’an and the Sunnah of the Prophet (PBUH) and transcend all sectarian divisions. In our view that is the only way that can guarantee the salvation of Muslims from a long lingering disgrace and humiliation. In fact our contention is that Islam can save the entire mankind from a collective suicide. Keywords: Jahilliyah, Islam, Socio-moral order, Justice, New World Order. When the belief in the Unity of God is divorced from human heart, the mind and soul naturally gets “darkened”. The ultimate ramifications of disbelief (in the Unity of God) emerge in the shape of entire change of life standards and approaches, leading the man to judge things and the world around from false paradigm. As a result, man falls far away from the right path and the eternal chastisement in the hell becomes his destiny. This moral, spiritual, social and even economic turpitude of a community is defined in the Qur’an as Jahilliyah or Ignorance. 1 In brief, Jahilliyah signifies that a man (or a community) has become oblivious of God and has turned its back to the Sunnah of His Prophet(s).

  • Journal of Religion & Society
    Journal of Religion & Society Volume 9 (2007) The Kripke Center ISSN 1522-5658 Muhammad’s Jewish Wives Rayhana bint Zayd and Safiya bint Huyayy in the Classic Islamic Tradition Ronen Yitzhak, Western Galilee College, Israel Abstract During his life, the Prophet Muhammad (570-632) married 12 different wives among whom were two Jewish women: Rayhana bint Zayd and Safiya bint Huyayy. These two women were widows whose husbands had been killed in wars with Muslims in Arabia. While Rayhana refused to convert to Islam at first and did so only after massive pressure, Safiya converted to Islam immediately after being asked. Rayhana died a few years before Muhammad, but Safiya lived on after his death. Classic Islamic sources claim that the Muslims did not like Rayhana because of her beauty and so made an issue of her Jewish origin, with Muhammad being the only one to treat her well. After Muhammad’s death, Safiya lived among his other wives in Mecca, but did not take part in the political intrigues at the beginning of Islam, in contrast to the other wives, especially the most dominant and favorite wife, Aisha. Introduction [1] According to Islamic tradition, the Prophet Muhammad married 12 different wives and had even more concubines. The custom of taking concubines was widespread in ancient times and therefore also was practiced in Arabia. Concubines were often taken in the context of war booty, and it seems that this is the reason for including in the Qur’an: “(you are forbidden) the married women, but not the concubines you, own” (Q 4:24; al-Qurtubi: 5.106).

  • The Impact of the Arab Conquest on Late Roman Settlementin Egypt
    Pýý.ý577 THE IMPACT OF THE ARAB CONQUEST ON LATE ROMAN SETTLEMENTIN EGYPT VOLUME I: TEXT UNIVERSITY LIBRARY CAMBRIDGE This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of Cambridge, March 2002 ALISON GASCOIGNE DARWIN COLLEGE, CAMBRIDGE For my parents with love and thanks Abstract The Impact of the Arab Conquest on Late Roman Settlement in Egypt Alison Gascoigne, Darwin College The Arab conquest of Egypt in 642 AD affected the development of Egyptian towns in various ways. The actual military struggle, the subsequent settling of Arab tribes and changes in administration are discussed in chapter 1, with reference to specific sites and using local archaeological sequences. Chapter 2 assesseswhether our understanding of the archaeological record of the seventh century is detailed enough to allow the accurate dating of settlement changes. The site of Zawyet al-Sultan in Middle Egypt was apparently abandoned and partly burned around the time of the Arab conquest. Analysis of surface remains at this site confirmed the difficulty of accurately dating this event on the basis of current information. Chapters3 and 4 analysethe effect of two mechanismsof Arab colonisation on Egyptian towns. First, an investigation of the occupationby soldiers of threatened frontier towns (ribats) is based on the site of Tinnis. Examination of the archaeological remains indicates a significant expansion of Tinnis in the eighth and ninth centuries, which is confirmed by references in the historical sources to building programmes funded by the central government. Second, the practice of murtaba ` al- jund, the seasonal exploitation of the town and its hinterland for the grazing of animals by specific tribal groups is examined with reference to Kharibta in the western Delta.

  • Religious Conflict in Early Islam: a Study of Its Causes from Qur'an Sunnah
    QURANICA, International Journal of Quranic © 2014 Centre of Quranic Research (CQR), Research, Vol. 6, Issue.2, December 2014, Pp. 1-18 University of Malaya, Malaysia RELIGIOUS CONFLICT IN EARLY ISLAM: A STUDY OF ITS CAUSES FROM QUR’AN SUNNAH PERSPECTIVE)*( 1 2 S. M. Yunus Gilani & Tazul Islam ABSTRACT This paper aims to present an historical survey on the conflict between Islam and other religions. It undertakes an analytic textual reading of the concerned Quranic verses and a historical survey of the Prophet’s (pbuh) efforts to resolution of the conflict. This study finds that a multi-dimensional causes contributed to the conflict between the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and other religions. For example, Religious roots which was mainly caused by the Christians and Jews’ denial of prophecy of Muhammad (pbuh) after a clear prediction of his prophethood in their religious scriptures. However, politico-economy was another key element of this conflict in the early Islamic state in Madinah. Though this conflict had come to broad daylight in the Islamic era, had a long pre-Islamic root go back to the second and third century CE. Moreover, Jews and Christians had a genuine fear of being defeated by the new emerging Muslim power. Therefore, they had found themselves in conflict so that they could reign their hegemony over the territory. In addition, after a city state was established in Madinah, the Prophet (pbuh) found a demographic presence of Jews and their ally Quraish threatening it peace, security, stability and even assassination of head of the state. Hence, the conflict had become inevitable.

  • Jerusalem Studies in Arabic and Islam

But, in spite of these disadvantages of the Muslim records, which have already been noticed by western scholars, lone may still come across many passages which seem to reflect the authentic pre-Islamic reality of the Ka-ba. Even pas- sages containing details which appear to be contradictory, or, inconsis- tent, or even legendary, are, more often than not, most revealing with respect to the history of the Ka-ba, The present study is based upon the assumption that much of the inconsistency in the information about the Ka-ba, as recorded in our sources, is essentially the result of real changes and developments which took place in the structure, ritual functions and position of the Ka'ba in pre-Islamic times, and in the attitude of the worshippers towards this sanctuary since it became part of Muslim worship. Some of these changes and developments are studied in the present article, the outline of which is as follows: 1.

  • Transitional Justice Under Shari'ah
    Transitional Justice under Shari’ah Fahimeh Manjili Following the Arab Spring, the governments of Egypt and Tunisia implemented various transitional justice mechanisms, such as truth commissions, reparation programs and prosecutions, which sought to redress the mass human rights violations committed during the uprising. Islam is the predominant religion in both nations, with over seventy million followers in Egypt and close to ten million in Tunisia.1 Despite a plethora of research and guidance on transitional justice and post conflict reconstruction, scholars have largely ignored the issue in the context of Shari’ah. Understanding that Islam plays a pivotal role in law and politics in the Middle East, this paper will establish an Islamic legal basis for transitional justice by discussing prosecution, reparations and reconciliation measures under Shari’ah. This paper will place greater emphasis on the above measures because, “[t]he Prophet (peace-be-upon-him) said: If a relative of anyone is killed, or if he suffers khabl, which means a wound, he may choose one of three things: he may retaliate, or forgive, or receive compensation. But if he wishes a fourth, hold his hands.”2 In doing so, this paper will address the following issues: (1) What might the goals and objectives of an Islamic transitional justice institution? (2) What are the similarities and differences between the goals and objectives of an Islamic transitional justice institution and classical approaches to transitional justice? (3) What are the means and mechanisms, prescribed by Islam, through which states can achieve these objectives? 1 Top 50 Muslim Countries, RELIGION FACTS, http://www.religionfacts.com/islam/places/top_50.htm.
