THE HOLY PROPHET (SALLAL LAAHU ALAIHI WASALLAM)

HEARS FROM BOTH FAR AND NEAR

 

                      "Door o Nazdeek ke sun'ne waale wo kaan"

                         "kaane la'le karaamat pe lakho salaam"

 

The Aqida of the Deobandis is that the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) only hears the voices that are in Madinah Munawwara. He only can hear the Durood which is recited there. He cannot hear anything from a distance. To believe that He can hear from far and near is polytheism.

 

The distinguished Sahaba of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) used to call to the Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) from distances, even at the time of battles which took place great distances away just as it was a ritual of Hadrat Abdullah ibn Umar (radi Allahu anhu), that He used to call to the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) during the battles. This has also been proven by Hadrat Abdullah bin Abbas and Hadrat Uthmaan bin Haniff (radi Allahu anhum).

 

All these narrations are purely true. The Sahaba used to call to the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) from both

far and near and their problems used to be solved.  The reason for the Sahaba To call to the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) from far and near was because they believed that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam)

could hear from far and near.

 

It is also the saying of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam), "I hear all that which you do not hear." (Sahih Bukhari Shareef - Sahih Muslim Shareef - Mishkaat Shareef)

 

REFERENCE FROM DALA'ILE KHAIRAAT

The superiors of the Deobandis , Ashraf Ali Thanwi, Qasim Nanotwi, Rasheed Ahmed Gangohi, Khalil Ahmed Ambetwi all had received permission for the recitation of Dala'ile Khairaat from Haji Imdaadullah Muhajir Makki just as it has been stated by Maulvi Husain Ahmed Tandwi in his book Almuhind.

 

"Haji Imdadullah Makki used to command The superiors of Deoband, Qasim Nanotwi, Rasheed Ahmed Gangohi, Ashraf Ali Thanwi etc; to recite Dala'ile Khairaat." (Almuhind)

 

Hadrat Shah Wali Allah Muhadith Delhwi (radi Allahu anhu) used to say the following concerning Dala'ile Khairaat: "I received the authority of Dala'il from my Sheikh, Abu Tahir, He received it from Ahmad Nakhaa, He received it from Sayed Abdur Rahman Idrees, He received it from his father Ahmed, He received it from His grandfather Muhammad, He received it from his grandfather and He received it from the Compiler of Dala'ile Khairaat Sheikh Sayed Shareef Muhammad bin Sulaiman Aljuzuli (radi Allahu anhu)." (Intibah fis Salasil)

 

Maulvi Baha ul Haq Qasmi writes that Maulvi Thanaullah Amritsiri used to be good to the Deobandis on the basis of Husne Zan (Moral Character). It should be known that the Wazifas of Dala'ile Khairaat are also in the amals of the Deobandis. (Najdi Tahreek par ek nazar)

 

In the very book Dala'ile Khairaat, the Author Hadrat Muhammad bin Sulaiman Jazauli (radi Allahu anhu) has quoted the Ahadith of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam). The Holy Prophet Muhammad (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) has stated, "I hear with my own ears the Durood of those who love me and I also recognise them" (Dala'ile Khairaat Shareef pg 22). A true Muslim always trusts the words of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) and He will believe this, that the Holy prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) hears duas and Durood from both far and near and also recognises.

 

From the above mentioned Ahadith it is obvious that the entire world is before the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam). He sees and recognises everyone and everything.

                           "Arsh ta Farsh he jis ki Zerre Nageen"

 

Look at how the Deobandis betray the word of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam). The Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) says that he hears and recognises yet the deobandis go around openly announcing that the Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) does not hear and recognise. It has been Quoted in Tibraani Shareef that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) said, "Recite Durood Shareef abundantly on Fridays since it is a day of witnesses. Angels present themselves there. When any servant recites Durood, no matter who and where he is his voice reaches me. (Jila'ul Ifhaam pg 62 - Az ibn Qayyim As Salaatu was Salaam pg52)

 

It is as clear as day from the Ahadith that the belief of the Ahle Sunnah Wal Jama'at is true and proper because the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) has stated that wherever or whoever the person is who recites Durood upon him. The voice of that person reaches him. This means whether a person is far or near, in Madinah Munawwara or Pakistan, His voice reaches the Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam).

 

It can also be derived from this that the Deobandis are not the Ahle Sunnah Wal Jama'at. and the true Ahle Sunnah Wal Jama'at are those who keep the Belief that the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) hears and recognises the Ummahi from both far and near. The Deobandis say that the Angels take this Durood to the Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) if this is so then why do they present it.

 

Note that the deobandis are even misleading in this case because the sahaba never felt that if the Durood is being brought by the Angels then the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasalam) cannot hear it. The Ahadith in which it has been narrated that the Durood is presented to the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) reads as follows. This Ahadith

has also been quoted by the Mujaddid of Deobandis Ibn Qayyim in His booK Jila'ul Ifhaam and also by one of the leaders of the Gheyr Muqalideen, Qazi Sulaiman Mansoor Poori.

"When a person recites Durood Shareef then a Angel takes it and goes up and presents it before Almighty Allah. Allah Almighty says, "Take it to the Mazaar of my Beloved Servant Muhammad (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) so that he may make Dua-e-Bakhshish for the person who sent the Durood and He may gain coolness in His eyes."

 

From the above mentioned Ahadith it is obvious that the Durood is first taken into the court of Almighty Allah then after that with the command of Almighty Allah, it is presented in the court of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam). The logic of the Deobandis is that if the Durood is heard by the Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) then what need is there for the Angels to present it.

 

It should be noted that this argument is not only contradicting the power of hearing of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) but it is also contradicting the power of hearing of Almighty Allah since the Durood is first presented in the court of Almighty Allah. Does this mean that Almighty also cannot hear from far and near ?

                            "Na khuda hi mila na Wisaale Sanam"

                            "Na idhar ke rahe na udhar ke rahe"

 

Note, how corrupt the belief of the Deobandis is that it has even contradicted and opposed one of the Qualities of the Zaat of Almighty Allah. May Almighty Allah protect us from such false and corrupt beliefs and groups. (Ameen).

 

Imam Sakhawi (radi Allahu anhu) in his book Mustataab Al Qaulul Badi' quotes one narration which is also quoted by the Deobandis. Hadrat Imaar bin Yasser (radi Allahu anhu) reports that the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) said, " Verily Almighty Allah has granted the an Angel the power of listening to the voices of every creation. That angel will be standing at my grave when I leave this world. Thus whoever sends Durood Shareef upon me then He will say, "O Muhammad (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) ! Certain person who is the son of certain person has recited Durood". Huzoor (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) has stated, "Any person who recites Durood once upon me. Almighty Allah bestows his mercy ten times upon him." (Al Qaulul Bad'i pg 112).

 

Maulvi Haidaruzama also quoted a similar narration in his book Hadiyatul Mahdi. From this Ahadith also one can understand the respect and status of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam). If the reciter of the Durood is far or near, In Arabia or outside Arabia in the East or in the West The voice (of that person) is heard by the Angel which is standing on duty as a slave and servant at the Mazaar of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam).

 

The Angel does not only hear the voice of one single person but He hears the voice of every creation. That Angel who is a servant and a slave of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam), If it's power of hearing is so powerful that it hears the voice of every creation then imagine the hearing power of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) who is the leader and Rasool of even the Angel. Any person in his proper sense of mind will believe that the Angel which is the servant of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) is hearing the Salaam of every person on the Duniya while standing beside the Qabre Anwar of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) and the Master of that Angel who is the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) cannot hear the Salaam of His Ummah.

 

Another important and exalted fact is present in this narration is that the Angel knows the name of every person sending Durood. He even knows the name of the reciters father

since in the Ahadith it has been stated, Certain person who is the son os certain person sends Durood. It is obvious that the person who is reciting Durood does not say His name or His fathers name before reciting the Durood. He does not say that I am certain person the son of certain person.  Although the person reciting the Durood does not give his name or his fathers name, the Angel who is present in Madinah Muwwara at

the Qabre Aqdas of the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) is aware of the name and the surname of the sender of the Durood. If this is the status of the Angel then whose servant that Angel is,Then it is obvious that the Beloved of Almighty Allah Hadrat Muhammad Mustapha (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) is definitely aware of the name and surname of the person who is sending Durood upon him. Verily our Leader Hadrat Muhammad Mustapha (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) is aware of our names and surnames and of our condition.

 

                  "Banda mit' Jaye na Aaqa pe wo banda kya hai"

                  "Be Khabar ho jo Ghulaamo se wo Aaqa kya hai"

 

This is why Hadrat Shah Abdul Aziz Muhadith Delhwi (radi Allahu anhu) while doing the commentary on this verse of the Quran:

 

wrote the following: " Through the help of Noore Nabuiwat, the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) is aware and well informed of the condition and status of every religious person. He knows of the point where that person has reached in his Deen an what is the condition of his Imaan and through which veil it is that he is deprived of elevation Thus he knows your sins, intentions and bad ideas this is why according to shariat he will be witness for the Ummah in the world and the hereafter and he will be accepted and a compulsory action."
