1-I just wanted to know if any kind of Hadith related the science or any sahaba(R.A) or person asking about the sun star and making of earth and universe to Muhammad (salalahu alhay wasallam) and wanted to know or taking interest to gain knowledge of something like study of science. 2- Is there any hadith or ayah where ALLAH(swt) promise to protect Khana-e-kaba. 3- What is your opinion about this web site www.interviewwithgod.net is it good to forward to ppl., many muslims doing this practice now a days. Jazakallahu Khairun
1) There are numerous Quraanic verses and Ahadith encouraging man to ponder
over the creation of the universe, the sky,the earth, the sun and moon etc.
from these Divine Texts we come to realise the virtue and value of pondering
and studying these natural elements. The intention should solely be to
recognise the greatness, grandeur and splendour of one’s Creator and how He
has created all these heavenly bodies in perfection alone and by means of
this to gain the proximity of Allah Ta’ala. One should not become so
engrossed in studying these phenomena that he begins to forget his
prioreties in Deen and also to study these sciences in the light of the Holy
Quraan and Ahadith. Allah Ta’ala mentions in the 4th chapter of the holy
Quraan in Surah Aal-e-Imraan, verse no.190: Verily, in the creation of the
skies and the earth and in the alternating of the night and the day are
truly signs for those of intelligence.
In Al-Jaamius Sagheer of Allamah Suyuti a hadith is mentioned: Ponder over
the creation…
It has been reported from a few Sahaba radiyallahu anhum that nabi alaihis
salaam approached then and so they kept silent and he asked them: “What were
you people speakin about?”. They replied: “We looked at the sun and we were
pondering over it that where did it come from and to where does it go and
and we pondered over the creation of Allah”. So, he said: ” Continue to do
so in the same manner, ponder over the creation of Allah but donot ponder
over the being of Allah …(Refer to Ad-durrul Mansoor Surah An-najm, verse
no. 42-47)
2) We find in the treasure of Ahadith that nabi alaihis salaam once said
that: “Make tawaaf of the ka’bah in abundance before it is lifted up and the
people will forget its original place. Nabi alaihis salaam also said: Take
maximum benefit from the Ka’bah because it was destroyed twice before and on
the third occassion it will be raised up. In many Ahadith we find that the
Ka’abah will remain intact till the time just before Qiyamat. (Ad-durrul
Mansoor
Nabi alaihis salaam said: Those with smallweak shins from Abyssinia will
destroy the Ka’abah. It is recorded in Fathul Bari that this will occur
prior to Qiyanat when there will be no soul to utter the name of Allah.
3) Allah Ta’la states in the Holy Quraan: He has not made Deen as a burden
upon you. Nabi alaihis salaam mentions: Certainly, Deen is easy. The Deen of
Islaam comprises of the Quraan and the Sunnat. These two jewels are
sufficient for our salvation in both the worlds and the beauty of Islaam is
its easiness and practicality. If we donot understand a ceratin aspect, then
the ideal would be to ask those that possess the knowledge. The method of
propagating Islaam which is outlined in the Quraan and Hadith is suficient
and most effective. Also, it should be understood that deen was spread from
heart to heart. Our humble opinion is that this particular website should be
ignored and not forwarded to others. The enemies of Islaam operate in very
subtle ways. Let us cling to our Shariat through the guidance of the learned
Scolars of Deen.
and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
