Obeying Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam)

Submitted by user2 on Sun, 2019-08-25 08:31

Q: Is it mentioned in the Quran that obeying the Messenger is obeying Allah? When I asked someone that who should we obey more, Allah or the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam)? They said obeying The Holy Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) is the same as obeying Allah. Does it mean that we should equally obey them, wound we fall into shirk as we are obeying someone equally to Allah?

Repenting after uttering words of kufr

Submitted by user2 on Sat, 2019-08-24 08:13

Q: I uttered words of kufr and shirk. If I say the shahadah and ask Allah to forgive me, is that enough?

Also, if an apostate returns to Islam, is he equal to the Muslim who never committed kufr?

Loving Allah Ta'ala

Submitted by user2 on Sat, 2019-08-24 07:35

Q: I am feeling down these past couple of days. I know loving a person more than Allah is shirk. How does one know that he loves Allah more than anyone else? When a person is far from religion and doesn’t remember Allah, does it mean he doesn’t love Allah?

Attributes and Being of Allah Ta'ala

Submitted by user2 on Sat, 2019-08-24 07:09

Q: Is it correct that the only thing that’s common between the attributes of Allah is being Qadeem? Like when we say the words of Allah are perfect, but Allah himself is more perfect than any of his attributes?

Taxi driver getting upset due to missing a pick up

Submitted by user2 on Thu, 2019-08-22 07:53

Q: My husband is a taxi driver so he has a phone which the company gave him. When he turns on the phone, a job will come and then he goes to pick up the passengers.

Today he was praying magrib salaah and I was in the bathroom. I heard his work phone ringing. I came out of the bathroom straight away and tried to find the phone. Finally I found the phone and the job was rejected because nobody picked up the phone in time. After salaam my husband saw his job fone and then he told me that the job was cancelled. Then he said (idhar namaze per lo job kaya kerni ha saray kaam baraaber chahiya matlab wo mujhe suna rahe the because ma un ko aksar kehti hu namaaz parne ko un ho ne mujhe kaha ke phir mujhe kaha khair tumhara iss sa koi lana daina nahi ya tumhara iss sa koi talluq nahi he ju wo keh rahe the)

Watching movies featuring people saying "Jesus Christ" or "Oh my God"

Submitted by user2 on Thu, 2019-08-22 07:44

Q:

1. Unfortunately I fell into the habit of porn. I used to watch the videos in which the people said things that are very bad like “Jesus ***** Christ .” I did not like when they said that. I just watched for the porn. I made taubah and re-did shahaadah. Should I re-do my Hajj and Nikah?

2. I used to watch TV with superhero movies in which some of the heroes claimed to be "gods". I watched shows where they said things like “oh my God, in vain - is this haraam to say or hear? I made taubah and stopped watching TV. Should I redo my hajj and nikaah as I performed both of these prior.

Meaning of taking refuge in Allah

Submitted by user2 on Tue, 2019-08-20 07:13

Q: We should all read duas and azkar. But I would like to share something about one dua (أعوذ بكلمات الله).

Our beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) didn't speak of his own accord and desire, all that he said emanated from Allah Ta'ala. It is mentioned in Surah Al Najm verses 1 to 4 *By the star when it descends Your companion [Muhammad] has not strayed, nor has he erred, nor does he speak from [his own] inclination. It is not but a revelation revealed.*

Allah Ta'ala taught us an amazing dua such as (أعوذ بالله... قل أعوذ برب الفلق... قل أعوذ برب الناس) 

أعوذ means (I seek refuge) ب (with) الله (Allah) and this dua أعوذ بكلمات الله means أعوذ (I seek refuge) ب (with) كلمات الله (word of Allah).

It is clearly shown that while reciting أعوذ بالله, it's meaning is concering Allah Ta'ala, we are taking refuge with Allah alone. But while we recite this dua (أعوذ بكلمات الله) it means that we are not taking refuge with Allah but with the Kalimatillah.

What is کلمات الله? Allah Ta'ala answered this question in the Quran. The answer is in Surah Al Nisaa verse 171, Allah Ta'ala says ( اِنَّمَا الۡمَسِیۡحُ عِیۡسَی ابۡنُ مَرۡیَمَ رَسُوۡلُ اللّٰهِ وَکَلِمَتُه)

Translation: The Messiah, Jesus, the son of Mary, was but a messenger of Allah and His kalimah "word".

It is clearly mentioned in this ayat that Isa (alaihis salaam) was "Word of Allah". Word (كلمه) actually means order. Isa (alaihis salaam) was order the of Allah. Allah says "Be" and he "was". In Surah Al Kahf verse 109 and Surah Al Luqman verse 27, Allah Ta'ala called كلمات (words of Allah) each and every thing which He created. It means that each and every thing which is created by God is the Order or Word of God.

So how can our beloved Prophet (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) order us to recite this dua by which we are not taking refuge with Allah but with the (كلمات الله) word of Allah?
