Qur'an, but it will not pass their throats. They will swerve from Islam as an arrow passes through the game at which is it
shot, and their distinguishing mark will be shaving. They will continue to come forth till the last of them comes forth with
the antichrist. When you meet them they will be the worst of men and beasts."
Nasa'i transmitted it.
Al-Tirmidhi Hadith
Hadith 2138
Ali ibn AbuTalib
Narrated by
Al-Harith al-A'war said: While passing through the mosque I found the people engrossed in (prohibited) talk, so I went to Ali
and told him. He asked if that was really so, and when I assured him that it was, he said: I heard Allah's Messenger (peace
be upon him) say, "Dissension will certainly come." I asked him what is the way out of it, to which he replied, "Allah's
Book is the way (out), for it contains information of what has happened before you, news of what will happen after
you, and a decision regarding matters which occur among you. It is the distinguisher and is not jesting. If any
overweening person abandons it Allah will break him, and if anyone seeks guidance elsewhere Allah will lead him astray. It is
Allah's strong cord, it is the wise reminder, it is the straight path, it is that by which the desires do not swerve nor the tongues
become confused, and the learned cannot grasp it completely. It does not become worn out by repetition and its wonders do
not come to an end. It is that of which the jinn did not hesitate to say when they heard it, 'We have heard a wonderful recital
which guides to what is right, and we believe in it.' He who utters it speaks the truth, he who acts according to it is rewarded,
he who pronounces judgment according to it is just, and he who invites people to it guides to a straight path."
Tirmidhi and Darimi transmitted it, Tirmidhi saying this is a tradition whose isnad is unknown, and al-Harith is adversely
criticised.
Sunan of Abu-Dawood
Hadith 4747
Narrated by
AbuSa'id al-Khudri ; Anas ibn Malik
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: Soon there will appear disagreement and dissension in my people; there will be
people who will be good in speech and bad in work. They recite the Qur'an, but it does not pass their collar-bones. They will
swerve from the religion as an animal goes through the animal shot at. They will not return to it till the arrow comes back to its
notch. They are worst of the people and animals. Happy is the one who kills them and they kill him. They call to the book of
Allah, but they have nothing to do with it. He who fights against them will be nearer to Allah than them (the rest of the people).
The people asked: What is their sign? He replied: They shave the head.
SWINE:
2:173 - He hath only forbidden you dead meat and blood and the flesh of swine and that on which
any other name hath been invoked besides that of Allah but if one is forced by necessity
without wilful disobedience nor transgressing due limits then is he guiltless. For Allah is Oft-
Forgiving Most Merciful. 173174
173 Dead meat: maitat: carrion; animal that dies of itself; the original Arabic has a slightly wider meaning given to it in Fiqh
(Religious Law); anything that dies of itself and is not expressly killed for food with the Takbir duly pronounced on it.
But there are exceptions, e.g., fish and locusts are lawful, though they have not been made specially halal with the
Takbir. But even fish or locusts as carrion would be obviously ruled out. (2.173)
174 For prohibited foods, cf. also Q. v. 4-5; vi. 121, 138-146; etc. The teachers of Fiqh (Religious Law) work out the
details with great elaboration. My purpose is to present general principles, not technical details. Carrion or dead meat
and blood as articles of food would obviously cause disgust to any refined person. So would swine's flesh where the
swine live on offal. Where swine are fed artifically on clean food, the objections remain: (1) that they are filthy animals
in other respects, and the flesh of filthy animals taken as food affects the eater; (2) that swine's flesh has more fat than
muscle-building material; and (3) that it is more liable to disease than other kinds of meat; e.g., trichinosis,
characterised by hair-like worms in the muscular tissue. As to food dedicated to idols or false gods, it is obviously
unseemly for the Children of Unity to partake of it. (2.173)
5:3 - Forbidden to you (for food) are: dead meat blood the flesh of swine and that on which hath
been invoked the name of other than Allah that which hath been killed by strangling or by a
violent blow or by a headlong fall or by being gored to death; that which hath been (partly)
eaten by a wild animal; unless ye are able to slaughter it (in due form); that which is sacrificed
on stone (altars); (forbidden) also is the division (of meat) by raffling with arrows: that is
impiety. This day have those who reject faith given up all hope of your religion: yet fear them
not but fear Me. This day have I perfected your religion for you completed my favor upon you
and have chosen for you Islam as your religion. But if any forced by hunger with no inclination
to transgression Allah is indeed Oft-Forgiving Most Merciful. 691692693694
