AHLUL-BAITH IN SAHIH-MUSLIM

                                    Ahlul-Baith in Sahih Muslim The word Ahlul-Baith literally means ‘People of the House’, but in Islamic world it means the people  of the house of  Prophet Muhammad (saw).But if you refer to Quran it means those special people in Prophet Muhammad’s family who were made pure by God and were protected from every kind of blemish and sin whether big or small. The  following verses of the Holy Quran is an evidence to the fact, “ And stay you (wives of Prophet Muhammad) in your houses and display not your beauty  like the display of the ignorance of old times, and establish you prayer and give away the poor-rate, and obey God and His Apostle; Verily, verily God intends to keep away from uncleanness O’ you Ahlul-Baith, and purify you a thorough purification.” Quran :33:33 In this verses God,in the first part, is addressing the wives of Prophet Muhammad and warning them not to go out of their houses and not to behave as any ordinary women and i

AKHBARISM IS NOT A RELIGION

                                                     WORM  IN THE AKHBARI THEORY The Akhbari shia school of thought has many serious holes in the basic principles of their faith. One of the dangerous hole is their belief that action (amal) is not a part of faith. They preach this concept vehemently  and say that only faith is enough to get you deliverance (najat).In exceptional cases ,where a person has accepted faith at end of his life, it is mentioned that a true faith makes you liable for the reward of all the good deeds .But exception is not the rule. The president of India has the right to pardon a person who has been sentenced to death penalty or life imprisonment and many people has been saved by this clause of the Indian constitution, but this does not makes  it a rule. According to Holy Quran and hadith faith and action are like twins and one is not accepted without the other. The famous surah-Asr of the Holy Quran goes as follows, “By the time! Man is in loss e

HAZRAT ALI AND BAHUBALI

                                                  HAZRAT ALI AND BAHUBALI After watching Bahubali-2 blockbuster movie it became very clear to me that it is inspired from the real live of the greatest legend of Islam  Hazrat Ali the cousin and son in law of Prophet Mohammed (saw).Hazrat Ali (as) is famous for his exemplary muscle power and single combat skills and war tactics. In his youth itself he terminated the greatest horn points of Arabia and became the main factor in the establishment  Islam .Apart  from being a legendary warrior,  Hazrat Ali (as) was also a great philosopher and man of letters. He was a wonderful orator , a wise man and above all a great and obedient servant of God who was always found busy chanting the verses of the Holy Quran. Owing to all these contrasting qualities the Prophet of Islam declared him as his caliph and vicegerent. The people also loved him and were ready to lay down their lives for him. But like our Bahubali he (as) was striped of his pos

END OF AKHBARISM

The root word of AKHBARI is the word 'akhbar' which in Arabic means 'traditions of the Holy Prophet and his family.Akhbari means the one who sticks to the traditions (hadith) of the Holy Prophet (saw) and his Holy family.The name itself brings to light the revolting spirit of the so called 'akhbaris' against the Holy Prophet of Islam because Prophet Muhammad (saw) never asked his ummah (Muslims)  just to stick to his traditions, to the contrary, he (saw) while departing from this materialistic world said: " I am leaving among you two weighty things; the book of Allah and my Ahlul-baith (sunnah).As long as you stick to both of them you will never get misguided." And according to another version of the same hadith he (saw) said: " I am leaving among you two weighty things; the book of Allah and my Sunnah. As long as you stick to both of them you will never get misguided." There is no contradiction between the two versions because the Ahlul
ON THINKING We humans, the species Homo sapiens, are gifted with a great faculty called ‘thinking’. It is the only tool, which has made us superior to all the other species on earth, and is responsible for our complete dominance over them. But recent research on Apes, Lemurs and Monkey has shown that even they have the ability to think, but to a very lesser degree (The Dragons of Eden:Carl Sagan). It was found that Chimps and Apes use sticks in order to get the termites out of their holes (The Dragons of Eden). All the Primates (Lemurs,Apes,Monkey and Humans) have this special gift to some degree. But the humans differ from the other Primates in a having a highly developed faculty of “thinking”. Fig.1.All the monkey like mammals including humans are called primates. All the Primates use “thinking” to fulfill their materialistic requirement. But human beings are the only Primates to have the faculty of Philosophical and Mathematical thinking. This kind of thinking is Peculiar to human a
