Tawrât and the Injîl, the books of Allahu ta’âlâ. For example,
they mixed some fables with the books Fusûs and Futûhât by
Muhyiddîn-i Arabî. Yet, they were soon discovered. The great
savant Hadrat Abdulwahhâb-i Sha’rânî ‘rahmatullâhi ta’âlâ
alaih’ explains this policy of the irreligious in his books Kibrît-i
Ahmar and Al-yawaqît. And today, the policy of
misrepresenting Islâm to youngsters is being carried out far and
wide; we notice with regret that the world no longer has any real
savants to silence them.
For this reason, Hadrat Celâleddîn-i Rûmî wrote his
Mathnawi in a rhyme scheme, thus leaving no possibility for
Islam’s enemies to defile it.
The following books give valuable information by explaining
the words of Islâmic scholars: While beginning the discussion
concerning the marriage of disbelievers in the annotation of
Durr-ul-mukhtâr by Ibni Abidin (alaihirrahma), chapter al-Hazarwal-ibâha
in the annotation of Eshbâh by Hamawî (rahmat
Allahu ta’âlâ ’alaih), and the book Mir’at-i kâinat write,
“According to great savants, who have realized the truth, we
shouldn’t talk on whether our Prophet’s ‘sall-Allâhu alaihi wa
sallam’ parents had or did not have îmân, and we should watch
our manners when discussing it. It has been stated in a hadîthi-sherîf,
‘Do not hurt the living by talking ill of the dead.’ It
does not bring harm upon one not to talk about it or not to learn
it, nor will it be asked in the grave or on the Last day of
Judgement.” [See fn. (5) in article 18 for Ibni Âbidîn.] And again,
they say, “Allahu ta’âlâ, as a blessing on our Prophet, enlivened
his parents during his farewell hajj. They believed in His
Prophet. The sahîh hadîth [1] quoted by Muhammad bin Abû
Bakr and Ibni Nâsir-ud-dîn declares this fact. By the same
token, His enlivening a man killed by the Banî Isrâil and the
man’s giving information about his murderer and His enlivening
many dead people with the prayers of Hadrat Îsâ and Hadrat
Muhammad were all blessings. It is incorrect to say that the
âyat ‘Do not ask My pardon on behalf of those who are for
Hell’ is about Rasûlullah’s blessed parents. As for the hadîth-isherîf
‘My father and your father are in the fire,’ which is
communicated in Muslim; it was said with ijtihâd. It was
declared afterwards that they had îmân.” It is written in the book
[1] A kind of hadîth.
