Specialties
(alsalafyoon article)
..These are the verses of Allah,
We recite them to you (O Muhammad) and surely,you are one of the Messengers
(of Allah). (Holy Quran 2:252)
Narrated Jabir bin Abdullah:
The Prophet (p.b.u.h.) said:
I have been giving five things
which were not given to anyone else before me:
1)Allah made me victorious by awe,
(by His frightening my enemies) for a distance of one months journey.
2) The earth has been made for me(and
for my followers) a place for praying a thing to purify (per Tayammum),therefore
anyone of my followers can pray whenever he is, at the time of a prayer.
3) The booty has been made Halal to
me yet it was not lawful to anyone else before me.
4) I have been given the right of
intercession(on the Day of Resurrection).
5) Every Prophet used to be sent to
his nation only, but I have been sent to all mankind.(Sahih Al-Bukhari,
Vol.1 Hadith No.331)
Narrated Abu Hurairah: Allahs
Messenger(p.b.u.h.) said, My similitude in comparison with the other
Prophets before me is that of a man who has built a house nicely and beautifully,
except for a place of one brick in a corner. The people go round about
it and wonder at its beauty, but say: Would that this brick be put
in its place!So I am the last(end) of the Prophets. (Sahih
Al-Bukhari, Vol.4 Hadith No.735)
Narrated Ibn Masu: As if I saw
the Prophet(p.b.u.h.) talking about one of the Prophets whose nation had
beaten him and caused him to bleed, while he was cleaning the blood off
his face and saying, O Allah! Forgive my nation, for they have no
knowledge.(Sahih Al-Bukhari, VOl.4, Hadith No. 683)
Narrated Aishaand Ibn Abbas:
On his deathbed Allahs Messenger(p.b..u.h.) put sheet overs face
and when he felt hot, he would remove it from his face then when in that
state he said: "May Allah s Curse be on Jews and the Christians
for the places worship at graves of their Prophets.(By that) he
intended to warn (the Muslims) from what they (i.e., Jews and Christians)
had done. (Sahih Bukhari, Vol.4, Hadith No.660)
Narrated Abu Huraurah: The Prophet(p.b.u.h.)
said, The Israelis used to be ruled and guided by Prophets. Whenever
a Prophet died, another would take over his place. There will be no Prophet
after me, but there will be caliphs who will increase in number.
The people asked, O Allahs Messenger! What do you order us
(to do)?" He said:"Obey the one who will be given the Baiah-pledge
first. Fulfil their rights, for Allah will ask them about(any shortcomings)
in ruling those whom Allah has put under their guardianship. (Sahih
Al-Bukhari, Vol.4,Hadith No.661)
