Aqaaid

Q: I read this on the internet about the Sabeans: In brief, they did not reject the Prophets or regard it as obligatory to follow them. In their view, whoever followed (the Prophets) is blessed and saved, and whoever follows a path similar to that of the Prophets by virtue of his own reasoning is also blessed and saved, even if he did not follow the Prophets in specific terms. In their view, the call of the Prophets was true but there was no one specific route to salvation. Isn’t it all kufr? Also was a specific prophet sent to them?

Q: Is it permissible to wish someone for Aashura and is it permissible to have programmes on the night of Aashura?

Q: Is it correct that Allah’s actions like blessing have the same attributes as that of Allah?

Also I read somewhere that the acts brought about by Allah are without displacement or movement. What does that mean?

Q: Can a non-Muslim who does good to people go to heaven? He or she might treat people with respect and give alms but can they go to heaven or do they have to take their shahaada to go to Jannah?

Q: What’s the sunni view on eid e ghadeer?

Q: I came across a video on facebook in which a Hindu woman was converting to Christianity. It was a ritual, some words were exchanged between the priest and the woman and then he baptised her. I forwarded this clip to many people in my contact list with no intention to inspire anyone to convert to Christianity (ma'aaz Allah) nor did I intend to promote Christianity, it was purely out of curiosity and sharing knowledge. What does Quran and Hadith say about this?

Q: We all know that qadayanis are not Muslim as they do not believe in khatm-e-naboowat sallallahu alaihi wasallam. If a qadaayani becomes hafiz of the Quraan, what would happen to him/her in this case as he is not a Muslim?

Q: How can I respond to someone who reviles the Sahaabah? What is their status and position in the conveying of deen?

Q: I believe in all of Allah’s names and attributes, I accept he is the one and only, none other deserves to be worshipped, if you do worship besides Allah such as a hindu God or do grave worship, you are not a Muslim, rather the contrary, first of all, I believe nothing is like Allah, he is incomparable, but my question is essentially, Allah knows everything we know, so does that mean there is a similarity?, Allah’s knowledge is unlimited and there are no mistakes, but ours is the opposite.

Also, another similar question, the Quran is Allah’s speech, his attribute, so is that incomparable as well, doesn’t that share similarity with other Arabic books, they may use the same words for instance, so a similarity, is it not?

I asked it on a forum last year, these same questions, a brother said, Allah knows what we know, but his knowledge is unlimited and is always right, ours is limited and we can make mistakes, so we share some things but overall, they are dissimilar, incomparable, he also said the same for my second question. Essentially, Allah’s words are incomparable overall, very dissimilar, but they share somethings with other books. He said something along the lines of that. I’m not sure what is right, hence why I’m asking this question. 

Q: What is the condition for all ibaadat to be accepted?
