Hope you are better now that Hatun is no longer missing and looks a lot like she did an Agatha Cristie. |
TenQ:Good you show some acquaintance with type of Tafsir. Do you know the difference between them? Is being Muslim validated by man or Allah? How many lamguages are spoken in Ethiopia? Are Ethiopians an Arab tribe or Arabs? What is the language of the Byzantines and their Roman affiliates? |
TenQ:How many dialects of Arabic were there? How many dialects of Fulani are there? How many dialects of Yoruba are there? Are the 'dialects' not Arabic or the same language? Well maybe Ijebu is not Yoruba. |
Greenholics:Interesting. Why will you request for hadith to tell you what is obvious in your environment? Esdb3: MRAKPORS:To name a few. The evolution of Christian belief since the 1st century has witnessed a complex and diverse trajectory. Gradually evolving from a small Jewish sect centered around the teachings of Jesus Christ, Christianity has grown into a widely practiced religion globally. Early Christianity had to do with the Formation of Doctrines: During the 1st century, early Christian communities formed around the teachings of Jesus Christ and the apostles. Initially, these communities were rooted in Jewish traditions, but as non-Jews embraced Christianity, new theological perspectives emerged. Consequently, diverse Christian beliefs and practices began to develop, reflecting both Jewish and non-Jewish influences. The Scriptures were interpreted, and various writings, such as Paul's Epistles, helped shape early Christian beliefs. This period also witnessed the emergence of the four canonical Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), solidifying the core teachings of Christianity and establishing the foundation for future doctrinal developments. The Early Church Councils and the Development of Orthodoxy saw during the 2nd and 3rd centuries a flourishing Christian movement and mounting theological disputes. In response, early church councils convened to address these controversies and establish orthodoxy. The Council of Nicea in 325 CE, for instance, responded to the Arian controversy and formulated the Nicene Creed, affirming the divinity of Jesus Christ. Subsequent councils, such as the Council of Ephesus (431 CE) and the Council of Chalcedon (451 CE), further refined doctrines related to the nature of Christ, the Trinity, and Mary's role, shaping the beliefs of mainstream Christianity. The Protestant Reformation and the Rise of Denominational Diversity during the 16th century witnessed a significant shift in Christian belief with the advent of the Protestant Reformation. Martin Luther, John Calvin, and other reformers challenged certain practices and teachings of the Roman Catholic Church, giving rise to new Protestant denominations. This period saw significant theological transformations, such as the emphasis on salvation by faith alone (sola fide) and the priesthood of all believers. Consequently, Christianity became more diverse as denominations like Lutheranism, Calvinism, Anglicanism, and later, Methodism, Baptism, and Pentecostalism, emerged, each with its distinct beliefs and practices. The Enlightenment and the growing secularization of the 17th and 18th centuries brought new intellectual challenges to traditional Christian beliefs. Philosophers and scholars questioned religious dogmas, emphasizing reason and empirical evidence. This period saw the development of Deism, a theological position that advocated for a God who created the universe but was not involved in its daily affairs. Consequently, Christianity faced increasing skepticism, leading to secularization and the rise of agnosticism and atheism as alternative belief systems. Contemporary Christianity and Pluralism in the modern era of Christian belief has become more pluralistic and diverse. Ecumenical movements have aimed to foster dialogue and understanding among different Christian denominations. Additionally, interfaith dialogue has expanded the scope of Christian beliefs as Christians engage with other religious traditions. These interactions have led to the growth of liberal Christian theologies, such as liberation theology, feminist theology, and queer theologies, challenging traditional theological frameworks and promoting inclusivity and justice. Can you tell me that in all these there aren't continued disputes? The hatred you refer to is definitely not in all of them and if for other reasons Allah admits them into paradise by his mercy you dare question his decision? Feel free to. Review and verify the meaning of the hadith on 73 you mention as well as explain how come there are generally varied degrees of agreement and disagreement amongst people Then your question to me, why are there differing levels of understanding amongst people? We are not repetitions of the same thought and have different levels of faith and reasoning. It is simply perspective and a reason why we will be judged individually not collectively. |
TenQ:Pardon my entry into your conversation however to your question 1. Could you tell us what you know about Tafsir and it's types? Perharps when you do you will answer your question. There's no contradiction in Quran 14:4 as immediately Prophet Muhammad may Allah's blessings be upon him started his message with those immediately around him then from there to other places. What is the distance between Ethiopia and Mecca? Then in Quran 7:158 it was revealed that Say Oh Muhammad ; Oh Mankind! Verily I am sent to you all as a messenger of Allah- to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. Just as well in Quran 34:28 We have sent you ˹O Prophet˺ only as a deliverer of good news and a warner to all of humanity, but most people do not know Indeed for the emboldened you may be excused And 3 you ask about Indeed, We have made this ˹Quran˺ easy in your own language ˹O Prophet˺ so perhaps they will be mindful. in order that they may understand and know. Despite the fact that it is so plain and clear, there are still people who disbelieve, who stubbornly go against it. Allah says to His Messenger, consoling him and promising him victory, and warning those who reject him that they will be destroyed. (Wait then; verily, they (too) are waiting.) meaning, `they will come to know who will be victorious and whose word will prevail in this world and in the Hereafter. For victory will be for you, O Muhammad, and for your brothers among the Prophets and Messengers, and for the believers who followed you,' as Allah says: (Allah has decreed: "Verily, it is I and My Messengers who shall be the victorious.'' Quran 58:21 |
Interesting that you are unable to provide correspondence from Hatun, DICC or other people you may know in common. In any case the London Metropolitan Police say Hatun is no longer being treated as a missing person and it would not be appropriate for them to go into the details of either the investigation or any specific communication officers have had as part of it." DCCI Ministries have also shared an update confirming that she has been in touch by email "saying that she is fine". Did she reply your own email Tenq? Lol! How many times was she attacked and stabbed anyway? Or you refer to 1 attack and multiple stabs from 1 new convert/revert? Wish you know how naturally violent some westerners/Europeans could be and the independence of Islam in this? |
TenQ:You remind me of an old acquaintance from over 2 decades back who says you can act intelligent by confidently misyarning. In other words when you boldly say rubbish you may fool people who don't know The Uthman codex is the standard text of the Quran which was compiled and edited by the caliph Uthman in the 7th century. It included seven different riwayahs or textual variants and all of them were preserved and accepted as the authentic and standard text of the Quran. You see your poor understanding of 1 that can accommodate all 7? TenQ:In addition to the 7 well-known recitations, there are many other lesser-known recitations, each of which has its own set of rules and regulations. These additional recitations are believed to bring greater reward to the recitor due to the added emphasis on gaining Allah's pleasure. Each of the seven primary recitations has been thoroughly documented and is widely accepted by the Islamic community at large. By reciting any of these seven recitations correctly, the recitor receives duas from innumerable angels, attaining Added Mercy. Aside from reciting from the 7 riwayah, there are many other reasons why a muslim may choose to recite from other sources. These reasons include enhancing one's understanding of the language and interpretation, personal preference, exploring additional sources of hadith and other related religious data, and creative expression. TenQ:Can you clarify what the difference between Ibn Kathir an Tha'labi, Khalaf an Hamzah and Khallad an Hamzah for a good example? To your third question kindly elucidate on what meaning has changed. |
TenQ:Does this question seem intelligent? If he destroyed all and left one where then did the others arise from? Uthman may Allah be pleased with him only acted to ensure that the Quran remained standardised and the message wasn't lost. He ensured the standard structure that could accommodate the different styles of recitation and encouraged the consciousness of a body to see this remains so. This has been maintained all these centuries. Check too that you didn't just write names more so where the individual names use the same style of recitation. You make a bigger deal in pauses during speech when saying the same sentence? Please are you for real? |
TenQ:I see you had been responded to before besides this is a recycled malicious mischief. You are aware that there are 7 recitations of the Quran all of which were revealed. Be it Hafs or Warsh they are from Allah. Is it alarming or surprising to you that this was done through one person? Are you unaware that there are quite a number who have memorized all these recitals? Do you state there being significant difference in the message conveyed in these different styles of recitation? |
Ignorance unequalled. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7s902-WdkE TenQ: |
Greenholics:Obvious difference between between being literate and educated. So we caused among them animosity. Animosity among who? No other but the Christians. How do Christians see Catholics and vice versa? How do Christians view Arians, Unitarians etc? |
Jump to verse 5 and forgot the preceeding verses. Quran: 9:1 [This is a declaration of] disassociation, from Allah and His Messenger to those with whom you had made a treaty among the polytheists. 9:2 So travel freely, [O disbelievers], throughout the land [during] four months but know that you cannot cause failure to Allah and that Allah will disgrace the disbelievers. 9:3 And [it is] an announcement from Allah and His Messenger to the people on the day of the greater pilgrimage that Allah is disassociated from the disbelievers, and [so is] His Messenger. So, if you repent, that is best for you; but if you turn away – then know that you will not cause failure to Allah. And give tidings to those who disbelieve of a painful punishment. 9:4 Excepted are those with whom you made a treaty among the polytheists and then they have not been deficient toward you in anything or supported anyone against you; so complete for them their treaty until their term [has ended]. Indeed, Allah loves the righteous [who fear Him]. Then following you have: Quran: 9:6 And if any one of the polytheists seeks your protection, then grant him protection so that he may hear the words of Allah. Then deliver him to his place of safety. That is because they are a people who do not know. 9:7 How can there be for the polytheists a treaty in the sight of Allah and with His Messenger, except for those with whom you made a treaty at al-Masjid al-Haram? So as long as they are upright toward you, be upright toward them. Indeed, Allah loves the righteous [who fear Him]. 9:8 How [can there be a treaty] while, if they gain dominance over you, they do not observe concerning you any pact of kinship or covenant of protection? They satisfy you with their mouths, but their hearts refuse [compliance], and most of them are defiantly disobedient. 9:9 They have exchanged the signs of Allah for a small price and averted [people] from His way. Indeed, it was evil that they were doing. The word used here is مشركين mushrikeen, polytheist; so are you one? Reference to Quran 3:151 which translates to mean "We will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve for what they have associated with Allah of which He had not sent down [any] authority. And their refuge will be the Fire, and wretched is the residence of the wrongdoers." Only shows a feeling of terror or freight because 1. You disbelieve, 2. You associated with Allah and as you most likely prefer the almighty God what isn't and has no authority. Well you may say you are an atheist so 1 suits you and if it's Ifa you are believe in Orunmila which makes it 2 and if you are more of a philosopher may your philosophy lead you to right conclusions however with the way you show just some literacy I doubt. Use your gumsion and remember: Greenholics: |
Indeed you are just one who likes to make baseless arguments . You quote: 2:62) Whether they are the ones who believe (in the Arabian Prophet), or whether they are Jews, Christians or Sabians – all who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and do righteous deeds – their reward is surely secure with their Lord; they need have no fear, nor shall they grieve Do you feign ignorance about what a good number of Christians on this platform say about Allah? How can you abuse, try to ridicule or equate Allah to an idol and then believe in him. Is that not hypocrisy or you claim they don't know they believe in him. There's no point mentioning any names. See few pictures attached. Note that I will not respond to any further observations or comments on this.

Greenholics:How despicable? You talk of Mutah in the Quran and cannot produce a verse containing this? You sure have the opinion you are conversing with one who cannot read. Anyway whatever you think or don't think remains your view and you cannot force it on me. Do good for yourself and live your Christian life to your best and bother less about things that don't concern you more so when you don't know about it rather than display your ignorance and being meddlesome. At least follow your own scripture. 1 Thessalonians 4:10-12 Indeed, you already show your love for all the believers throughout Macedonia. Even so, dear brothers and sisters, we urge you to love them even more. Make it your goal to live a quiet life, minding your own business and working with your hands, just as we instructed you before. Then people who are not Christians will respect the way you live, and you will not need to depend on others. 1 Peter 4:15-16 If you suffer, however, it must not be for murder, stealing, making trouble, or prying into other people’s affairs. But it is no shame to suffer for being a Christian. Praise God for the privilege of being called by his name! And finally Proverbs 20:3 It is an honor for a person to cease from strife, but every fool quarrels |
Greenholics:See who fails to show an argument! You say Mutah and it is not in the verse of the Quran you name or can you show it to me? You tell me to read the Quran believing you yourself know it yet you cannot specifically show where the word Mutah is? Who is false claiming here? You run to a hadith which shows your further inadequacy as there is no word called Mutah there either. Can you precisely show your argument and stop meandering? You are diverting that's why the initial talk on urine was ignored. In any case show me what prophet Muhammad says about this and also answer what Muhammad's statement on hadith is. You ignorantly run to Bukhari and I ask you is it Bukhari that defines Islam? How can you teach what you yourself don't know? You are unable to show me Mutah and are running your keyboard in vain. Show me you can't! Between you and me who is memorizing? You hear mutah and don't even know where it exists! A terrible show of bad comedy is all you display. State facts not whims. Show me the laws you claim as talk is cheap or rather keyboard hounding ain't play. Peace and good luck in finding frivolous claims of one who follows an attempt to slander he doesn't know about? Oh please! |
[quote author=Greenholics post=127437997 Oya clap for your self cos you can differentiate between the Quran and the Hadith…. Oya clap for yourself. Isn’t the use of the Hadith to explain Quran verse? So hilarious you asking me what I went to the Hadith, ok no vex I will not go to your very own Hadith again….. cos it seem the Hadith really pissed you off…... can’t you see you are tap Dancing? Even Al bukhari says the men were reluctant to have the woman because their husband were there…… So you really don’t know what Mutar is….. Eyah go ask your sheik , y’all really don’t ready your holy books …… any Muslims that dare read the Quran and the Hadith ( not just cram the Arabic without knowing the meaning ) is on his way out of Islam. Imagine equating child pornography act to law against pedophilia You really don’t know nothing I thought it was only the Quran you happen not to read but it seems you don’t even know the history of the world , before the US there have been 100’s of very very advanced civilizations all over the world with law against pedophilia, an example is in ancient Africa communities it was a crime punishable by death, your ignorance is not an excuse …… this is the same ignorance your Islam teacher depend on to keep y’all in the bondage of Islam. You don’t know what Mutar is, you don’t know what your prophet said about the benefit of his followers drinking his urine , you don’t know what your Quran says, you are rejecting the Hadith and your well accessory’s Islamic scholars …… you know nothing about the religion you are defending ….. and yet you are here shamelessly making a case for pedophilia, better go learn about your religion sir. Lastly the aim of this post I made is to get people like you to a place where you will study ( not to memorizing the verse) your holy books on your own and asking questions….. because I am 100% when you start reading your Quran you will see the lies in Islam and take a turn. Peace and good luck[/quote] |
Greenholics:Wonderful! You quote a part of Jami' at-Tirmidhi 3017 which is what the Quran or hadith and tell me I don't know the Quran? Can you quote the arabic verse and translate the meaning directly? What you failed to quote in full is: Ahmad bin Mani’ told us, Hushaym told us, Othman Al-Batti told us, on the authority of Abu Al-Khalil, on the authority of Abu Sa’id Al-Khudri, he said, “We took captives.” And there were women who were wives among their people. They mentioned that to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, and it was revealed: (And chaste women, except those Your right hands have dominion.) Abu Issa said this is a good hadith. And thus Al-Thawri narrated on the authority of Uthman Al-Batti, on the authority of Abu Al-Khalil, on the authority of Abu Sa’id Al-Khudri on the authority of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, there is something similar in this hadith on the authority of Abu Alqamah, and I do not know that anyone mentioned Abu Alqamah in this hadith, except for what Hammam mentioned on the authority of Qatada and Abu Al-Khalil, whose name is Salih bin Abi Maryam What is difficult to understand from the Quran text that you need to go to the hadith to understand? And it does not contain Mutah so I still don't get your point. Show me in all you wrote where the Mutah is? Where are the husbands of these women? It doesn't say in what you relate. Can you tell me what Muhammad says about hadith since you use them so much in your argument? Point of correction, you feel I am embarrassed and I am not. How do you reason for me or know my thoughts? You claim to know what I think, and are fa mistaken. You're mistaken because you can never know what another person is thinking unless they tell you. The best you can do is to assume various things and yet you be very far off. The best way to know is to directly ask to get me to tell you. People often don’t really know what they think about something until they have reflected on it. You arbitrarily say paedophilia has been frowned at for 1000s of years can specify exactly where at least I mentioned the united states congress and put a date to it? |
Greenholics:Is it Quran 2:24 or 4:24? I guess that's a typo. Anyway your acclaimed expertise in Arabic language doesn't show you that women having husbands have also been made unlawful. So far as a woman is married to a person, no other person can marry her. Look at a list of translations of the meaning here. Muhammad Asad And [forbidden to you are] all married women other than those whom you rightfully possess [through wedlock]: this is God's ordinance, binding upon you. But lawful to you are all [women] beyond these, for you to seek out, offering them of your possessions, taking them in honest wedlock, and not in fornication. And unto those with whom you desire to enjoy marriage, you shall give the dowers due to them; but you will incur no sin if, after [having agreed upon] this lawful due, you freely agree with one another upon anything [else]: behold, God is indeed all-knowing, wise The Clear Quran, Dr. Mustafa Khattab Also ˹forbidden are˺ married women—except ˹female˺ captives in your possession. This is Allah’s commandment to you. Lawful to you are all beyond these—as long as you seek them with your wealth in a legal marriage, not in fornication. Give those you have consummated marriage with their due dowries. It is permissible to be mutually gracious regarding the set dowry. Surely Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise. Safi Kaskas [You are forbidden to marry] women who are already married, except from those whom your right hands held in trust . God has ordained all of this for you. Other women are lawful to you as long as you seek to marry them and not for unlawful intimacy. If you wish to enjoy women through marriage, you will give them their bridal-gift. If you should mutually choose, after fulfilling this obligation, to do something else with the bridal-gift, you will not be blamed. God is All-Knowing and All-Wise. Could you point at the arabic text Mutah(المتعة) in the Quran 4:24 or any other quran verse. Do read Quran 4:22 - 26. Educate me please in what year was the standard for paedophilia set? I know the united states congress passed the Child Pornography Prevention Act in 1996. Can you tell me of other earlier jurisdiction? Why do you like to dare? Are we playing truth or dare to part with money or take in drink till you get drunken? You are the wise one and are presenting an argument which really is of no consequence. Did you exhaust all information about your proposal before presenting it? Watch your head shaking so it doesn't give you pain. I never asked you to show me that my prophet was an Idol worshipper. It appears you assume this. In any case repeatedly the Quran has statements forbidding worshipping anything other than Allah the unseen almighty God. Principles of belief which is foremost to being a muslim (believer in one almighty God). Why do you make comparisons with what happens in Nigeria today. What exactly is the link; did these events follow a directive from the prophet? Can you show how and when? You only follow conjecture about Sunni or Shia or any other muslim sect you know. I have shown you the Quran verse which says muslims should not be divided amongst themselves. If acclaimed muslims decide to do this that issue is between them and Allah. I am simply muslim no buts. I cannot explain Mutar or whatever you call it and implore you to show me where it is written in the Quran perharps it would be understood. |
Greenholics:Quran 4:24 Also ˹forbidden are˺ married women—except ˹female˺ captives in your possession.1 This is Allah’s commandment to you. Lawful to you are all beyond these—as long as you seek them with your wealth in a legal marriage, not in fornication. Give those you have consummated marriage with their due dowries. It is permissible to be mutually gracious regarding the set dowry. Surely Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise. Greenholics:You have quoted a narration in Sahih Bukhari. Show me a narration that says he was wrong to have contracted this marriage at that time. Not the present or later day evaluation of this union. Is this difficult for you to understand as my question or you simplify don't comprehend. There's no need going into analysis of why the ages mentioned may be wrong. Greenholics:Where is the command that makes it compulsory to kiss the black stone? Did Umar command other people to kiss the stone or recording him saying this makes it a command to do so? Is this what your wise reasoning tells you? Then in finality give a precise definition of Jihad. You say I am Sunni? How do you know? Indeed you show your error as you don't know me to conclude thus? Quran 3:103 And hold firmly to the rope of Allah all together and do not become divided. And remember the favor of Allah upon you – when you were enemies and He brought your hearts together and you became, by His favor, brothers. And you were on the edge of a pit of the Fire, and He saved you from it. Thus does Allah make clear to you His verses that you may be guided. Is Sunni a division or not of Muslims? |
Kobojunkiee:Cheers! |
Greenholics:It really most matters to you what you think or don't think. You wouldn't be the first and surely not the last. We all have intellect and free will. In it all we will be responsible for our actions or inactions. And if they deny you, [O Muhammad] - so, before them, did the people of Noah and 'Aad and Thamud deny [their prophets And the people of Abraham and the people of Lot And the inhabitants of Madyan. And Moses was denied, so I prolonged enjoyment for the disbelievers; then I seized them, and how [terrible] was My reproach. |
Kobojunkie:New covenant, old covenant or current covenant; how well are these adhered to? If the creator remains the same what exactly does he want of his creation? Be true to self first and live your to your best amongst others. The spirit of eternal life is often viewed as a source of hope and comfort, particularly in times of grief and loss. How can this be meaningful if it lacks truth? We should be less critically philosophical as it is not that difficult to tell the truth except we rather get lost in philosophy. The spirit of eternal life and the spirit of truth are interconnected concepts that have the power to inspire and guide individuals towards a deeper understanding of the ultimate nature of existence. Whatever our individual convictions it is best we act best on them regardless of the views of another. There's no point trying to enforce individual convictions on another. Best regards. |
SIRTee15:Which exactly is? |
Just saying though. The Holy spirit has pretty much been around for a long time. Ezekiel’s Call to Be a Prophet 1 He said to me, “Son of man, stand up on your feet and I will speak to you.” 2 As he spoke, the Spirit came into me and raised me to my feet, and I heard him speaking to me. 3 He said: “Son of man, I am sending you to the Israelites, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against me; they and their ancestors have been in revolt against me to this very day. Genesis 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. The Word of God represents the divine revelation and communication of God's will and purpose. The Holy Spirit has been present throughout history, working in the lives of believers before, during and after the time of Jesus. During the time of Jesus, the Holy Spirit's role becomes even more pronounced as Jesus himself is described as being filled with the Holy Spirit (Luke 4:1) Just saying ![]() |
SIRTee15:These are the verses of Allah which We recite to you in truth. Then in what statement after Allah and His verses will they believe? |
SIRTee15:We have had discussions on divergent hadith/view when the issue of David and the two disputants was brought up. One needs to be cautious as reported speech could be fairy tales at variance with the truth. |
Abu Muhammad 'Abd al-Malik bin Hisham died in 833, some 201 years after the death of the Prophet. From his memory, he edited the biography of the Prophet written by Ibn Ishaq that was lost and is now only known in the writing of Ibn Hisham and Tabari. As claimed by some, Ibn Hisham did not meet Ibn Ishaq and was never his student. Ibn Hisham was born in 767 CE when Ibn Ishaq died. Bear in mind too that one of the main reasons for questioning the trustworthiness of even Ibn Ishaq is the fact that he lived in a time when historical accuracy was not a priority. The early Islamic period was marked by wars, disputes, and power struggles, which hindered the objective reporting of historical events. The tenacity with which falsehood fights or establishes a semblance of truth is quite wondrous. |
SIRTee15:It really is not best practice responding to a lot of these views that have been propagated because at some point we all will individually know. As to if this will matter, I don't know. You are aware there are different accounts of the death of Asma however authentic or inauthentic the sources are. Degree of reports about the killing of `Asma bint Marwan As for the report about the slaying of ‘Asma bint Marwan that is propagated by these liars, it is a fabricated report. It was narrated by al-Qadai in Musnad ash-Shihab (856), al-Khatib in at-Tarikh (13/99), Ibn ‘Asakir in his Tarikh (51/244), and Ibn ‘Umar al-Harbi in his Fawaid (50), all via Muhammad ibn al-Hajjaj al-Lakhami Abu Ibrahim al-Wasiti from Mujalid ibn Sa‘id from ash-Sha‘bi from Ibn ‘Abbas, who said: A woman from Banu Khatamah wrote poetry lampooning the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), and news of that reached the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) and upset him. He said: “Who will deal with her for me?” A man from among her people said: I will, O Messenger of Allah! She was a seller of dates, so he went to her and said to her: Do you have any dates? She said: Yes. So she showed him some dates, and he said: I want something better than this. So she went inside to show him and he followed her and looked right and left, but he did not see anything except a small table, and he kept hitting her head with it until he killed her. Then he went to the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah, I have taken care of her for you. The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “The validity of what you have done is something that no one could dispute.” This woman was ‘Asma bint Marwan. “This is an invalid isnad and a fabricated report that was narrated by Muhammad ibn al-Hajjaj of whom al-Bukhari said: His hadith is to be rejected. Ibn Ma‘in said: (He is) an evil liar. Ad-Daraqutni said: (He is) a liar; and on one occasion he said: He is not trustworthy.” (Mizan al-I‘tidal, 3/509) Ibn ‘Adiyy said: “Muhammad ibn al-Hajjaj fabricated the hadith about the woman who used to lampoon the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), according to which when she was killed he (allegedly) said: “The validity of what you have done is something that no one could dispute.” (Al-Mawdu‘at by Ibn al-Jawzi 3/18) This hadith was also mentioned by Shaykh al-Albani (may Allah have mercy on him) in ad-Da‘ifah (6013); he said it is fabricated (mawdu‘). It was narrated by al-Waqidi in al-Maghazi (p. 173) and via him by al-Qadai (858): “‘Abdullah ibn al-Harith told me, from his father, that ‘Asma bint Marwan, from Banu Umayyah ibn Zayd, was married to Yazid ibn Zayd ibn Hisn al-Khatmi. She used to revile the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him), criticise Islam and incite people against the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him). When news of what she said and her incitement of the people reached ‘Umayr ibn ‘Adiyy ibn Kharashah ibn Umayyah al-Khatmi, he said: O Allah, I make a vow to You that I shall kill her if You grant a safe return to Madinah to the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) – as the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) was in Badr at that time. When the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) came back from Badr, ‘Umayr ibn ‘Adiyy came to her in the middle of the night and entered upon her in her house when she had a group of her children sleeping around her, including an infant who was still being breastfed. He reached out to touch her and found the infant whom she was breastfeeding. He pushed the child aside then he plunged his sword into her chest until it came out of her back. Then he went out and prayed Fajr with the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) in Madinah. When the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) finished praying, he looked at ‘Umayr and said: Did you kill the daughter of Marwan? He said: Yes, may my father be sacrificed for you, O Messenger of Allah. ‘Umayr was afraid that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) would not approve of his killing her, so he said: Is there any sin on me for that, O Messenger of Allah? He said: “The validity of what you have done is something that no one could dispute.” And this is the first time I heard this phrase from the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him). ‘Umayr said: The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) turned to those who were around him and said: “If you want to see a man who supported Allah and His Messenger, then look at ‘Umayr ibn ‘Adiyy.” “This is a worthless isnad. Imam Ahmad said concerning al-Waqidi – whose name was Muhammad ibn ‘Umar ibn Waqid – : He is a liar; he alters hadiths. Ibn Ma‘in said: He is not trustworthy. On one occasion he said: His hadith is not to b written down. Al-Bukhari and Abu Hatim said: He is matruk (rejected). Abu Haatim and an-Nasai said: He fabricates hadith. Ibn ‘Adiyy said: His hadiths are odd and problematic. Ibn al-Madini said: al-Waqidi fabricates hadith.” (Mizan al-I‘tidal, 3/663) An-Nasai said: “The liars who are known for fabricating hadith are four: Ibrahim ibn Abi Yahya in Madinah, al-Waqidi in Baghdad, Muqatil in Khorasan and Muhammad ibn Sa‘id in Syria.” (Tahdhib at-Tahdhib, 9/163) |
FxMasterz:If we look at the language here like that in Isaiah 48:10 states, "I have refined you, but not as silver; I have tested you in the furnace of affliction." This language suggests that the purpose of the refining fire is to purify and renew, not to condemn and destroy. The book of Malachi is primarily concerned with addressing the corrupt practices of the Israelites and calling them to repentance. The dreadful day is presented as a consequence of their actions, but it is also portrayed as a potential turning point for the people. |
FxMasterz:Perharps we should look again. The judgment that is spoken of in Malachi primarily refers to the judgment on earth. Malachi warns of consequences for the people's actions and urges them to repent and return to God. The judgment that is described in the book is not necessarily a final judgment day, but rather a judgment that will have immediate repercussions on the people's lives and their relationship with God.

Malachi 3:2-3 describes the coming of the Lord as a refiner's fire, purifying the people and purging them of impurity. This imagery of purification and refinement suggests a judgment that is aimed at correcting and purifying the people, rather than condemning them to eternal damnation. |
FxMasterz:What really is the great and dreadful day? |
