reciting SalawatunNariya lead us to HELL-FIRE

preached by Muhammad Ibn 'Abdi-l-Wahhabby Shaykh Abdul Hadi Palazzi and Zubair QamarPraised by Allah, Lord of the worlds, and blessing and peace upon the best of His creatures, the Prophet Muhammad Ibn ‘Abdi-Llah, upon his noble family, his pure wives, his purified Sahabahs and upon all those who follow his path till the Day of resurrection. This paper has been compiled under the supervision of Shaykh Abdul Hadi Palazzi, Director of the Cultural Institute of the Italian Islamic Community as a mean to seek Allah’s favor and as a warning against the founder of the heretic Wahhabi-Salafi cult and against the bid’ahs he preached. May Allah save this Ummah from bid‘ahs and dalalah, and preserve us on the right path followed by Asyaduna al-akramin. Amin.
Rasul-Ullah (sall-Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam) said: "Allahumma, bless Yemen, Allahumma, bless Sham." He was asked: "And what about Najd?" He answered: "From Najd Shaytan’s horn will rise." He (sall-Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam) also said: "Beware of Shaykhu-n-Najdi, since he is Shaytan." He (sall-Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam) also said: "There will be people who come from the eastern side of Arabia who will recite Qur’an, but their recitation will not pass beyond their collarbones. They will go out of Islam as swiftly as the arrow goes through the prey. Their sign is shaving their heads."
Muhammad Ibn ‘Abdi-l-Wahhab was a descendent of the Bani Tamim tribe and was born in the Uyaynah village (Najd) in 1111 H. (1699 M.). His father was a learnt Hanbali scholar, and sent him to study tafsir, fiqh and tasawwuf in Mecca, Medina, Baghdad, Basrah and Damascus, as well as in Iran and India. His attitude, from the beginning, was very much polemic, and he took active part in scholarly debates. During this period, he received the surname "Shaykhu-n-Najdi". He contacted many Shaykhs of tasawwuf, and tried his best to be appointed as a khalifah. This request of his, however, was not accepted, since the Shaykhs realized he was too must influenced by kibr and by the desire to become a leader. At the age of thirty-two he came back to Najd and started working as a teacher for Bedouins; he also started exercising ijtihad, and accusing Sunni scholars and Ahlu-t-tasawwuf of bid‘ahs. In 1143 H. (1730 M.) he met a leader of a gang of marauders called Muhammad Ibn Sa’ud, whose main activity was plundering travelers in the desert of Najd. Since most of those Bedouins living in Dar’iyyah were completely unlearnt, Ibn ‘Abdi-l-Wahhab could easily convict them of his theories; Ibn Sa’ud and him made an agreement, according to which the former was appointed as the "Amir", and the latter as the "Shaykh". The "Shaykh declared he was ready to publish "fatawa" where non-Wahhabi Muslims were described as apostates and idol-worshippers; this point of view obviously represented a sort of "religious justification" for Ibn Sa‘ud’s gang. They were not, anymore, robbers and criminals, but "mujahids", authorized to kill "kuffars", to plunder their properties and to rape their women.
The "Shaykh" also appointed some "wakils" and send them to preach Wahhabism in Mecca, but scholars living in the Blessed City were ready in understanding how dangerous this doctrine was. Sayyid Ahmad Zayni Dahlan as-Shafi‘i (ramimah-Ullah) was the Chief Mufti of Mecca. In wrote in the book "Al-Futuhatu-l-Islamiyyah":
"To deceive the ‘ulemas in Mecca and Medina, those people sent emissaries in al-Haramayn, but these missionaries were not able to answer questions asked by Sunni scholars. It became evident that they were ignorant bid‘ah holders. Muftis of the four madhhabs wrote a fatwa that declared them kuffars, and this document was distributed in the whole Jazirah. The Amir of Mecca, Sharif Mas‘ud Ibn Sa‘id, ordered that the Wahhabis should be imprisoned. Some Wahhabis fled to Dar‘iyyah and informed their leader of what was happening."
Muhammad Ibn ‘Abdi-l-Wahhab’s brother, Sulayman Ibn ‘Abdi-l-Wahhab (ramimah-Ullah), studied his works and tried his best to invite him to tawbah. At least, when he realized verbal admonitions had no effect, decided to write a book called "As-Sawa’iqu-l-Ilahiyyah fi-r-Raddi ‘ala-l-Wahhabiyyah". It contains a detailed refutation of his brother’s heresies, and states:
"One of the dalils showing that your path is heretic is the hadith sharif narrated by ‘Uqbah Ibn Amir and collected in the Sahihayn [Bukhari and Muslim]: ‘Rasul-Ullah (sall-Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam) ascended the minbar, and it was the last time I saw him on the minbar. He said: ‘I do not fear that you will become mushrikuns after me, but I fear that, because of worldly interests, you will fight each others, and thus be destroyed like the peoples of old.’ The Messenger of Allah (sall-Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam) foretold all that would happen to his Ummah until the end of the world. This hadith sharif shows that he was certain of the fact that this Ummah will never worship idols. By saying so, he destroys Wahhabism from its roots, since Wahhabi books say that Ummah al-Muhammadiyyah is involved in polytheism, that Muslim countries are full of idols, and that Muslim graves are houses of shirk. They also claim that someone who does not accept to consider mushrikuns those who ask for intercession by the graves is himself a kafir. On the contrary, Muslims have been visiting graves and asking for the intercession of awliyas for centuries. No Islamic scholar has even called such Muslims mushrikuns.
"My brother asks: ‘A hadith sharif says: "Of all that will befall you, shirk is what I fear more." Is not this a dalil of the fact that a part of this Ummah will be engaged in shirk?'
"I say: It is inferred by many other hadiths that this hadith refers to shirku-l-asghar. There are similar hadiths, narrated by Shaddad Ibn ‘Aws, Abu Hurayrah and Mahmud Ibn Labid (may Allah be pleased with all of them), according to which the Prophet (sall-Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam) feared that shirku-l-asghar would be committed by his Ummah. It has exactly happened as it was foretold in the hadith, and many Muslims are guilty of shirku-l-asghar. But you, in your ignorance, confuse shirku-l-asghar with shirku-l-akbar, and the tragic consequence of this mistake of yours is that you regard as ‘unbelievers’ those Muslims that do not accept to call other Muslims ‘unbelievers’."
Another contemporary scholar, Muhammad Ibn Sulayman Effendi (ramimah-Ullah) wrote:"O Muhammad Ibn ‘Abdi-l-Wahhab, do not slander Muslims! I admonish you for Allah’s sake! Does anyone of them says that there is a creator besides Allah? If you have anything to argue against Muslims, please, show them authoritative dalils. It is more correct to call you, a single person, ‘kafir’, than calling millions of Muslims ‘kuffars’. Ayah 114 of Surah an-Nisa’ says: ‘If anyone contends with the Messenger after guidance has been plainly conveyed to him, and follows a path other than the one followed by Believers, we shall leave him in the path he has chosen, and land him in Jahannam, quite an evil refuge!’ This ayah points to the situation of those who have departed from Ahlu-s-Sunnah wa-l-Jama‘ah."When the order from the Amir of Mecca reached the Khalifah in Istanbul, he ordered Muhammad ‘Ali Pashah (ramimah-Ullah), governor of Egypt to move to Najd and to stop the Wahhabi fitnah.
The marauders of Ibn Sa’ud tied to attach Mecca and fought against mujahids, but Allah gave the victory to the Islamic army. Muhammad Ibn ‘Abdi-l-Wahhab was captured and sent in chains to Istanbul. A Shari‘ah court found him guilty of homicide, marauding and rebellion, while Muftis of the four madhhabs declared him to be a kafir and murtaddid.
Among Sunni ‘uleams who refuted Wahhabism we must also mention Sayyed Dawud Ibn Sulayman, Mawlana Khalid al-Baghdadi, Sun‘ Allah al-Halabi al-Makki al-Hanafi, Muhammad Ma‘sum as-Sarhindi, Muhammad Ibn Sulayman al-Madani ash-Shaf‘i, may Allah be pleased with all of them. The latter was the Shaf‘i Mufti of Medina, and was asked to write a fatwa against Muhammad Ibn ‘Abdi-l-Wahhab. This fatwa is quoted in the book "Ashaddu-l-Jihad" and says:"This man is leading the ignoramuses of the present age to a heretical path. He is trying to extinguish Allah’s light, but Allah will not permit His light to be extinguished, in spite of the opposition of mushrikuns, and will enlighten every place with the light of Ahlu-s-Sunnah."
As-Sayyid ‘Abdur-Rahman al-Ahdal (ramimah-Ullah), the Mufti of Zabid, said, "...in refuting them [the Wahhabis], it is sufficient to mention the hadith of the Prophet (sall-Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam): ‘Their sign is shaving their heads’, since no other innovators had ever done it."
The Wahhabis also call themselves the "Salafis," believing that they follow the footsteps of the pious Salaf, i.e. the Sahabahs, the Tabi’un, and Atba’u-t-Tabi’in. The Wahhabis, however, have a route of knowledge that traces back to Muhammad Ibn ‘Abdi-l-Wahhab, the founder of the Wahhabi movement, who lived in the 1700’s M., and before him to Ibn Taymiyyah, another heretic who lived in the late 1200’s to early 1300’s M. Their route of knowledge does not trace back to the time of the Prophet Muhammad (sall-Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam) or his pious followers whom he praised. The Wahhabis, therefore, cannot be "al-Firqatu-l-Najiyyah", or the Saved Sect, but are one of the other 72 deviant sects within the Ummah, which the Prophet (sall-Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam) dispraised and warned us about.
In many of his "fatawa," Muhammad Ibn ‘Abdi-l-Wahhab labeled Muslims as "kuffars" if they did not agree to his heretical teachings, which opposed the orthodox Islamic beliefs that Muslims had been adhering to for over a thousand years (known as Ahlu-s-Sunnah wa-l-Jama‘ah). When the true Sunni Muslims disagreed with the newly formulated Wahhabi cult, the blood of countless Muslims, including plenty of scholars of Ahlu-s-Sunnah, was made halal by the command of Muhammad Ibn ‘Abdi-l-Wahhab.
Although thousands of Muslims were massacred by the deviant Wahhabis, the scholars of Ahlu-s-Sunnah continued to refute them in their books. An example is what the Mufti of Mecca, Ahmad Zayni Dahlan al-Makki ash-Shafi‘i (rahimah-Ullah) wrote in a work titled "Fitnatu-l-Wahhabiyyah", stating:"In 1217 H. they [the Wahhabis] marched with big armies to the area of at-Tayf. In Dhu-l-Qa‘dah of the same year, they lay siege to the area the Muslims were, subdued them, and killed the people: men, women, and children. They also looted the Muslims belongings and possessions. Only a few people escaped their barbarism."
"They [the Wahhabis] plundered what was in the room of the Prophet (sall-Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam), took all the money that was there, and did some disgraceful acts."
"In 1220 H. they [the Wahhabis] lay siege to Mecca and then surrounded it from all directions to tighten this siege. They blocked the routes to the city and prevented supplies from reaching there. It was a great hardship on the people of Mecca. Food became exorbitantly expensive and then unavailable. They resorted to eating dogs."
What better person could the British have used to fulfill their motto, i.e. "divide and conquer?" The British were laughing at Muhammad Ibn ‘Abdi-l-Wahhab and his followers for plundering, looting, and killing Muslims in the name of Islam, causing Muslims in Mecca to resort to eating dogs, in addition to fighting Muslim armies sent by the Ottomans, e.g. Muhammad ‘Ali Pashah (rahimah-Ullah) of Egypt and his army.
This was indeed a fulfillment of the interests of the British, as well as entertainment for them. Contemporary members of the Sa'ud house are descendants of Muhammad Ibn Sa’ud, the heretic who collaborated with Muhammad Ibn ‘Abdi-l-Wahhab, to cause a Muslim bloodbath in the name of "Jihad." Their monarchy has existed since the Wahhabi movement originated, and they continue to raise the Dajjal’s banner to this very day.
They have destroyed the maqams of our four Imams around al-Ka’bah, and identifying the place where the imam of salatu-l-jama‘at must stand in Masjidu-l-Haram is today quite difficult. The sanctity of al-Haram is profaned five times each day, since the Wahhabi "imams" stand too close to al-Ka‘bah, in a place that is not justified in the light of fiqh.
The discovery of oil in Saudi Arabia in the 1930’s has enabled the Saudi-Wahhabi kingdom to become rich, and their leaders have used their wealth to disseminate the Wahhabi doctrine all across the globe. They have built printing presses in Egypt, Syria, and even the United States to print beautiful books to attract the laypeople so that they may fall into their trap. The problem is that many new and naive Muslims are falling into the Wahhabi trap, and are propagating their false doctrine in Muslim Student Organizations, universities, and mosques – especially in the East Coast of the United States.
The Wahhabis are known for parroting the slogan of "Qur’an and Sunnah," without any profound understanding of the two sources of Islam, and are known for slandering scholars of Ahlu-s-Sunnah like Imams Suyuti, Imam Abu Hamid Ghazali, Imam Nawawi, (ramimahum-Ullah) among others. The great Hanafi scholar, Imam Muhammad Amin Ibn Abidin (ramimah-Ullah), stated that the Wahhabis of today are reviving the creed of the Khawarij of the past. It is also known that the Khawarij wrongly understand the meanings of ayahs in the Qur’an and falsely attribute ayahs meant for non-Muslims to Muslims. The Wahhabis are notorious for reviving this Kharijite practice. Moreover, the Wahhabis have a passion for trying to find faults among the mujtahids such as the noble Imam Abu Hanifah, Imam Shaf‘i, Imam Malik, and Imam Ahmad Ibn Hanbal.
They try to find faults in their methodologies, while they do not possess a methodology of their own. Hence, Wahhabi "scholars" who have graduated from Wahhabi universities in Saudi Arabia are never taught a methodology to enable them to understand the Qur’an and Sunnah. This is why they are in a constant state of self-contradiction, confusion, and fitnah among the Muslim population.
It is the scholars of Ahlu-s-Sunnah wa-l-Jama‘ah who must awaken the Muslims and warn them by bidding the lawful and forbidding the unlawful Wahhabi doctrine by efficient means of da‘wah. An anti-Wahhabi campaign must be formulated and strengthened to defend the Ash‘ari and Maturidi creeds, the Hanafi, Shaf‘i, Maliki, and Hanbali madhhabs, and the numerous tariqahs of tasawwuf, of which the majority of Muslim scholars have been a part of.
And all praise is for Allah, Lord of the worlds.

In the name of Allah, the most beneficent, the most merciful
Peace be upon you dear brother Mydeen & brothers and sisters. Sorry for late refutation.
Brother Mydeen, you only initiated this topic by showing a verse from holy Quran to support SalawatunNaariya. I refuted it in detail. What you should do is, either accept my refutation or deny stating what is wrong in my refutation. But what have you done? You just jumped into another verse which also irrelevant to your argument. This kind of escaping clearly indicates that your intention is merely to confuse people rather than seeking the truth. If my thought is wrong then you should correct me explaining what is wrong in my refutation. Don't jump into another leaving earlier unclear. As you have just jumped into another verse, you indirectly affirmed that holy Quran verse 9:128 doesn't support SalawatunNariya at all. Price be to Allah.
Please READ QURAN understanding its indepth meaning and understand how Allah has described our Prophet in many places.
All price be to Allah by the grace of whom I can able to understand the meaning of his holy book Quran and differentiate between what is right and what is wrong!Especially when Almighty Allah calls our prophet Muhammad (sal) as 'Rahmathul lil Alamin',Yes I know our creator has described our beloved Prophet (peace be upon him) as mercy to the mankind. But it doesn't necessarily mean to be merciful to the mankind whomever our beloved Prophet (peace be upon him) wishes! He (peace be upon him) has been made so (mercy to the mankind) by our creator Allah for whom he desires.
Our beloved Prophet by his own virtue, couldn't be merciful to his own grandfather by bringing him to Islam! Non believer are also living in the same Universe? Where is the mercy gone for them? Ultimate mercy is bringing them in Islam, right!Not only to our beloved Prophet (peace be upon him), Almighty Allah has described his holy book Quran with same kind of wording too. Please look at those verses here.
وَنُنَزِّلُ مِنَ ٱلْقُرْءَانِ مَا هُوَ شِفَآءٌۭ وَرَحْمَةٌۭ لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ۙ وَلَا يَزِيدُ ٱلظَّٰلِمِينَ إِلَّا خَسَارًۭا
And We send down of the Quran that which is a healing and a mercy to those who believe…” (al-Israa’ 17:82)
هَٰذَا بَصَٰٓئِرُ لِلنَّاسِ وَهُدًۭى وَرَحْمَةٌۭ لِّقَوْمٍۢ يُوقِنُونَ
“This [Qur'an] is enlightenment for mankind and guidance and mercy for a people who are certain [in faith].” (al-Jathiyah 45:20)He has already bestowed our prophet Muhammad(sal) with those divine attributes described in SalawathunnariaHere you don't understand the simple differences between what is Rahmath and Rahman. Rahman (one who is most merciful) is our creator (producer) and Rahmath (mercy) is the product of Rahman which is our beloved Prophet (peace be upon him) and his book holy Quran. It's so pathetic that you couldn't understand simple difference between them.However, the verses from SalatunNariya glorifies our beloved Prophet as Muhammad by virtue of whom needs are met. Does it means our beloved Prophet as product or producer? It indirectly says Muhammad by virtue of whom needs are met; not by Allah! Naoodu Billah!or even more than these which we know notAs we wouldn't questioned by Almighty Allah which we do not know, why do we bother about it? (the one which is neither found in holy Quran nor the tradition of beloved prophet taught us)There is NO Shirk in reciting this salawathAlmighty Allah has commanded us to send blessings for our beloved Prophet and salute him only. Allah hasn't commanded to glorify our beloved Prophet. Holy Quran verse 33:56 clearly states that.Allah and His angels send blessings on the Prophet: O you that believe! Send your blessings on him, and salute him with all respect. (33:56)
If you study the all salawats taught by our beloved Prophet, it's merely a supplication (dua) for him & his family. So it is apparent that reciting salawat means a supplication (dua), salutation and respect only not glorification. Glorification belongs to Almighty Allah only.
But what is described in so called SalawatunNariya is not a Dua/Salutation/Respect rather it glorifies our beloved Prophet which is apparently Shirk. Notice this sentence from SalawatunNariya Muhammad by virtue of whom good end may be achievedWhat is this? Is it a dua like Darood Shareef which our beloved Prophet taught us? No, It's purely a glorification which should be done to Almighty Allah alone. My dear brother Mydeen you didn't understand the simple difference between what is Dua and what is glorification!Dear brothers who have fallen to Wahhabi's beliefs, Try to understand. Our Prophet Muhammad is NOT an ordinary human being like you and me or simply a post man to deliver Quran (what some of your guys describe)!! He is Divine Creation! Beware of what you describe him!You affirm that our beloved Prophet is divine creation! Then how do you justify SalatunNariya which glorifies our Prophet up to the stage of Creator and even deny Allah's attribute?Salawatun Nariya says Muhammad by virtue of whom needs are met (which indirectly mean not by Allah!) Naoodu billah.Nobody says our beloved Prophet as post man. A post man couldn't lead his life as per what he delivers! A post man never becomes a roll model to rest of the world! It's your ignorant that you misunderstand what have been told to you.Somebody described, in a layman language, one of the roll of our beloved Prophet as what a postman does, since postman never ever and can't alter anything contained in what he delivers. As such our beloved Prophet (peace be upon him) never alter anything in the holy book Quran!He is Divine Creation! Beware of what you describe him!We aware that how we are saluting our beloved Prophet (peace be upon him). It's your ignorance that you misunderstood.There has certainly been for you in the Messenger of Allah an excellent pattern [Al-Quran 33:21]Postman doesn't posses uswatul hasana!. It's your ignorance that you are blaspheming that we are calling so!Salawat is merely a supplication/wish (Dua) for our beloved prophet. We should send salawat upon our beloved Prophet (peace be upon him) who, by the bounty and mercy of Allah, has taught us our faith!Just as prayer is a manifestation of our love, gratitude and obedience to Almighty Allah, sending salawat on our beloved Prophet (peace be upon him) shows our love for him, our respect for him, and our obedience to him.May Almighty Allah guide us on right path and protect us from hell-fire.WassalamRegardsSultan MaideenGlory to the Lord of power and dominion! One who will not die! Glory to the One who gives life
to His creation, and He will not die!

>
> “O Allaah, send perfect blessings and complete peace upon our master Muhammad by virtue of whom [as some of them say] all obstacles are removed, distress is relieved, needs are met, desires are fulfilled and a good end may be achieved and by virtue of whose noble face clouds may be sent, and [send blessings and peace] upon his family and companions with every breath and glance.”]
>
> Answer:
>
> Praise be to Allaah.
>
> 1. The words of this innovated prayer are clear enough, but there is nothing wrong with explaining them further.
>
> “obstacles are removed” means, a way out is found from whatever obstacles and difficult matters one is faced with.
>
> The phrase may also mean “by virtue of whom anger is calmed.”
>
> “distress is relieved” means anxiety and grief are taken away.
>
> “needs are met” means one gets what one is trying to achieve.
>
> “desires are fulfilled and a good end may be achieved” means his wishes are fulfilled whether that is in this world or in the Hereafter, one of which is that one meets a good end.
>
> “by virtue of whose noble face clouds may be sent” means that he is asked to pray to Allaah to send rain.
>
> 2. What some people have told you – that this prayer does not involve shirk and that it is permissible for you to continue to recite it – is wrong. This so-called prayer includes things which clearly go against Islam, such as the following:
>
> (i) It is supposed to be said at times of calamity. This is a contrived reason for an innovated act of worship.
>
> (ii) It is supposed to be recited a set number of times, 4444 times. This is a contrived amount for an innovated act of worship.
>
> (iii) It is supposed to be recited in a communal fashion. This is a contrived method for an innovated act of worship
>
> (iv) It contains phrases which go against Islam, which constitute shirk and which are an exaggeration about the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). It attributes to him actions which cannot be attributed to anyone other than Allaah, such as meeting people’s needs, relieving distress, fulfilling their desires and granting a good end. Allaah commanded His Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him):
>
> “Say: ‘It is not in my power to cause you harm, or to bring you to the Right Path’”
>
> [al-Jinn 72:21 – interpretation of the meaning]
>
> (v) It ignores what is taught in the sharee’ah, and makes up a contrived prayer and supplication. This implies that one is accusing the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) of failing to explain everything that the people need, and that one is trying to fill gaps in the sharee’ah.
>
> The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: ‘Whoever innovates anything in this matter of ours (Islam) that is not a part of it, will have it rejected”
>
> (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 2550; Muslim, 1718).
>
> According to a report narrated by Muslim (1718), he said: “Whoever does any action that is not in accordance with this matter of ours (Islam) will have it rejected.”
>
> Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: “This hadeeth represents one of the most important basic principles of Islam. It is like a yardstick for measuring the outward appearance of actions, just as the hadeeth ‘Actions are but by intentions’ is a yardstick for measuring the inward nature of actions. Just as actions which are not done for the sake of Allaah bring no reward to the one who does them, so too actions which are not done in accordance with the command of Allaah and His Messenger are rejected and thrown back at the one who does them. Everyone who innovates something in the religion for which Allaah and His Messenger have not granted permission, that action has nothing to do with the religion.”(Jaami’ al-‘Uloom wa’l-Hukam, 1/180)
>
> Al-Nawawi (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: “This hadeeth is one of the most important basic principles of Islam and is one of the most comprehensive sayings of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). It is a clear rejection of bid’ah and innovations. The second report adds a further idea, which is that some people may persist in doing some innovated action (bid’ah) for which there is a precedent, and when the first report – ‘Whoever innovates anything…’ – is quoted as proof, such a person may say, ‘But I did not innovate anything. Then the second report – ‘Whoever does any action…’ – may be quoted, which clearly states that all innovated actions are rejected, whether the one who does them invented them or they were previously invented. This hadeeth is one of those which should be memorized and used in denouncing evil actions, and it should be propagated widely.”(Sharh Muslim, 12/16)
>
> 3. With regard to celebrating the Mawlid (birthday of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)), doing this is bid’ah. If it was good, those who love the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) more than we do would have done it before us, i.e., the Sahaabah, may Allaah be pleased with them. Most of what is recited on this occasion are weak or fabricated reports of the life of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and it involves exaggeration about our Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). There follow the comments of the scholars:
>
> (a) Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) was asked about the one who completes the reading of the Qur’aan each year on the night of the birthday of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) – is that mustahabb or not?
>
> He replied:
>
> “Praise be to Allaah. For the people to come together to eat on the two Eids and the days of Tashreeq is Sunnah. This is one of the symbols of Islam which the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) set out for the Muslims. Helping the poor by giving them food during Ramadaan is also one of the ways of Islam. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: ‘Whoever gives a fasting person food to break his fast will have a reward like his.’ Giving poor Qur’aan-readers that which will help them to devote their time to the Qur’aan is a righteous deed at any time, and whoever helps them in this manner will have a share in the reward.
>
> But taking as special occasions days which are not prescribed in Islam – such as one of the nights of Rabee’ al-Awwal which is called Laylat al-Mawlid (the night of the Prophet’s birthday), or some of the nights of Rajab, or the eighteenth of Dhu’l-Hijjah, or the first Friday of Rajab, or the eighth of Shawwaal, which the ignorant call ‘Eid al-Abraar (the Feast of the Righteous)’ – these are bid’ahs which the salaf did not regard as mustahabb and they did not do these things. And Allaah knows best.”(al-Fataawa al-Kubraa, 4/415)
>
> (b) Ibn al-Haaj said:
>
> “Some of them commit actions at this time which go against this meaning. When the month of Rabee’ al-Awwal begins, they hasten to indulge in idle entertainment, playing the daff (hand-drum) and reed flute, and other things as mentioned above.
>
> Whoever wants to weep, let him weep for himself and for Islam, and how it and its people and those who follow the Sunnah have become alienated. If they simply wanted to sing songs and entertain themselves, I wish that they would limit themselves to that. But some of them try to follow proper etiquette, so they start the Mawlid with the recitation of Qur’aan. So they look for the one who can recite in the most melodious fashion and provoke enjoyment, and he reads ten aayahs. There are several things wrong with this:
>
> (i) the way in which the reciter reads in this manner which is condemned in sharee’ah, with a quavering tone like that of a singer. This has been discussed above.
>
> (ii) This involves a lack of proper respect towards the Book of Allaah.
>
> (iii) They read Qur’aan briefly before turning to what they really desire, which is to listen to the entertainment of the tambourine and reed-flute, and the singing and quavering tones of the singers, etc.
>
> (iv) They show outwardly something different from that which is in their hearts. This is the essence of hypocrisy, whereby a person makes an outward display of something when deep inside he really means something else – this is wrong except in cases specifically exempted by sharee’ah. They start with Qur’aan recitation when the thoughts of some of them are really focused on the singing.
>
> (v) Some of them cut the recitation short, because they are thinking too much of the pleasure of that which comes after it, as mentioned above.
>
> (vi) If the Qur’aan reading goes on for a long time, some of the audience begin to show signs of boredom, and they do not settle down until the entertainment they like begins. This is not what is meant by the description which Allaah gives of the humble believers, because they love to hear the words of the Lord, as He says in praise of them (interpretation of the meaning):
>
> ‘And when they listen to what has been sent down to the Messenger (Muhammad), you see their eyes overflowing with tears because of the truth they have recognized. They say: “Our Lord! We believe; so write us down among the witnesses”’[al-Maa’idah 5:83]
>
> This is how Allaah describes those who listen to His words. But some of these people do the opposite of that. After listening to the word of their Lord, they get up to dance and celebrate and enjoy themselves in unseemly ways. “Truly, to Allaah we belong and truly, to Him we shall return” [al-Baqarah 2:156 – interpretation of the meaning. This phrase is an expression of grief and sorrow] for the lack of shame for committing sins. They do the deeds of the Shaytaan and seek reward from the Lord of the Worlds, claiming that they are doing acts of worship and goodness. Would that only the lowest of people did that, but now this problem has become widespread and you see those who claim to have some knowledge and good deeds doing that, and even some of those who claim to be shaykhs, i.e., those who have followers. All of them are included in what is said above.
>
> It is strange that they have been deceived by this trick of the accursed Shaytaan. Do you not see that a wine-drinker, when the wine first starts to take effect, he begins to move his head non-stop. When the effect becomes stronger, he loses his shame and dignity before those who are with him, and what he wants to conceal will be exposed to his companions. Look at this singer, may Allaah have mercy on you and us. When he starts to sing, you will see people who have dignity and respect, who appear decent and are followed by people of knowledge, falling silent when he starts to sing. Then they start to move their heads a little, exactly like wine-drinkers, as described above. Then when they really start to enjoy the entertainment, they lose their shyness and dignity, exactly like the wine-drinkers, so they get up and start to dance and shout and weep in a show of fake humility. They move in and out and raise their arms and heads towards the heavens as if receiving divine inspiration. They start to foam at the mouth and may even rend their garments and play with their beards.
>
> This is obviously something to be denounced, because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) forbade wasting money, and rending one’s garments is obviously included in that.
>
> Secondly, this obviously goes beyond the limits of common sense, because they act like crazy people most of the time.”(al-Madkhal, 2/5-7)
>
> (c) The Standing Committee said:
>
> “Celebrating the birthday of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is not permitted because it is an invented bid’ah (innovation) which was not done by the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) or by his rightly-guided successors (al-khulafa’ al-raashideen), or by the scholars of the best three generations [i.e., the first three generations of Islam].”
>
> (Fataawa al-Lajnah al-Daa’imah, 3/2)
>
> (d) Shaykh Ibn Baaz was asked: is it permissible for the Muslims to hold celebrations in the mosque to commemorate the life of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) on the night of 12 Rabee’ al-Awwal, to celebrate the Mawlid or birthday of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), without taking that day off as an “Eid”? We are having some disputes concerning this. Some say that it is a bid’ah hasanah (“a good innovation”) and some say that it is not a good innovation.
>
> He replied:
>
> “The Muslims should not celebrate the birthday of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), whether on the night of 12 Rabee’ al-Awwal or on any other date, just as they should not celebrate the birthday of anyone other than the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), because celebrating birthdays is an innovation which has been introduced into the religion. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) did not celebrate his birthday during his lifetime, and he is the one who conveyed the religion and laws from Allaah. He did not enjoin that, and it was not done by his rightly guided successors or by any of his Companions or those who followed them in goodness during the best three generations. So it is known to be an innovation, and the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: ‘Whoever innovates anything in this matter of ours (Islam) that is not a part of it, will have it rejected’ (Saheeh – agreed upon). According to a report narrated by Muslim, which al-Bukhaari narrated in a mu’allaq majzoom report: “Whoever does any action that is not in accordance with this matter of ours (Islam) will have it rejected.”
>
> Celebrating the Mawlid is not in accordance with the command of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), rather it is something which the people innovated and introduced into their religion during later centuries, so it is to be rejected. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to say in his khutbah (sermon) on Fridays: ‘The best of speech is the Book of Allaah and the best of guidance is the guidance of Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him). The most evil of things are those which are newly-invented, and every innovation is a going-astray.’ This was narrated by Muslim in his Saheeh. It was also narrated by al-Nasaa’i with a jayyid isnaad, adding the words, ‘and every going-astray leads to Hell.’
>
> Instead of celebrating the birthday of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), we should study his seerah (biography) and the history of his life during the jaahiliyyah and Islam, in schools, mosques and elsewhere. That includes describing the circumstances of his birth and death, with no need to innovate celebrations which are not prescribed by Allaah or His Messenger, and for which there is no evidence in sharee’ah.
>
> Allaah is the Source of Strength. We ask Allaah to grant guidance and strength to all the Muslims and to help them to follow the Sunnah and avoid bid’ah.”
>
> (Fataawa al-Shaykh Ibn Baaz, 4/289)
>
> And Allaah knows best.
