لمحۂ فکریہ:

آج یوم عاشوراہے،یعنی محرم الحرام کی دسویں تاریخ،یوم عاشوراکی فضیلت اس لیے نہیں ہے کہ اس دن جگرگوشۂ رسول صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم حضرت حسین رضی اللہ عنہ شہیدہوئے،(میں نے حضرت حسین رضی اللہ عنہ کے ساتھ ’’امام‘‘ اور ’’علیہ السلام‘‘ کے الفاظ استعمال نہیں کےے ہیں کیوںکہ یہ دونوں الفاظ اہل تشیع کے عقیدہ کی عکاس ہیں)عاشوراکی فضیلت قبل ازاسلام سے ہی ہے،عاشوراکے سلسلہ میں بہت ساری غیر مصدقہ روایت بھی ہے جس کے مطابق حضرت آدم علیہ السلام کی توبہ اسی دن قبول ہوئی،حضرت نوح علیہ السلام کی کشتی جودی پہاڑ سے اسی دن لگی،اسی طرح نمرودنے جس دن حضرت ابراہیم علیہ السلام کو آگ میں ڈالا اورآگ بحکم خداوندی گل گلزارہوگئی وہ بھی عاشوراکاہی دن تھا،اسی طرح ایک مصدقہ روایت کے مطابق جس دن حضرت موسیٰ علیہ السلام نے اپنی قوم کو فرعون سے نجات دلائی اور فرعون غرق دریاہواوہ دن بھی عاشوراکاہی تھا،لہذاعاشورہ کی فضیلت اس لیے نہیں ہے کہ اس دن حضرت حسین رضی اللہ عنہ کی شہادت کاغمناک واقعہ پیش آیابلکہ اکابراہل سنت نے تو یہ کہا ہے کہ حضرت حسین رضی اللہ عنہ کی فضیلت تھی کہ ان کی شہادت اس فضیلت والے دن میں ہوئی۔ اوراتناہی نہیں بلکہ رمضان کے روزوں کی فرضیت سے قبل عاشوراکاروزہ فرض تھاپھررمضان کے روزے کی فرضیت کی وجہ سے یہ روزہ استحباب کے درجہ میں آگیا،لہٰذاان باتوں سے یہ سمجھ آتی ہے کہ عاشورا یعنی دس محرم کی فضیلت اس لیے نہیں ہے کہ اس دن حضرت حسین رضی اللہ عنہ کی شہادت کا المناک سانحہ پیش آیابلکہ اس کی فضیلت قبل ازاسلام سے ہی ہے۔
اسی طرح ہم اہل سنت کے لیے یہ بات بھی قابل افسو س اورلمحۂ فکریہ ہے کہ ہم ایسے خرافات اوربدعات کے عمل میں ملوث ہیں جن سے ہمیں روکاگیاہے یا جن کے کرنے پر سخت وعیدیں آئی ہیں ۔ عاشوراکے دن کرنے کاکام صرف اورصرف روزہ رکھناہے جوکہ رسول اکرم صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم اوردیگرانبیاکی سنت رہی ہے لیکن ہم بھی اہل تشیع حضرات کی طرح ذکرشہادت حسین کی مجلسوں اور ماتم وتعزیہ داری جیسے شرکیہ حرام کاموں میں ملوث ہوجاتے ہیں۔اگرہمیں شہدا کویادکرناہے توہمارے پاس شہدااسلام کی اتنی لمبی تعدادہے کہ ان میں سے ہرایک کویادکرتے کرتے ہماری عمر گذرجائے پھربھی شہدائ کی فہرست باقی رہ جائے گی اورہماری زندگی ختم ہوجائے گی،توپھرصرف ذکر حسین اورماتم حسین ہی کیوں؟ کیا وہ تمام شہدائے اسلام جنہوں نے اسلام کی سربلندی کے لیے کفارومشرکین سے قتال کرتے کرتے اپنی جانیں نثارکردیں،کیابدرکے شہداکی شہادت کاکوئی مول نہیں ہے؟ کیااحدکے شہیدوں کی جانیں بے کار تھیں؟ کیاسیدالشہداحضرت سیدناحمزہ رضی اللہ عنہ کی شہادت بے کارتھی؟ اسی طرح امیرالمومنین حضرت عمرفاروق رضی اللہ عنہ کی شہادت میں ہمارے لیے کوئی سبق نہیں ہے؟کیاحضرت عثمان وحضرت علی رضی اللہ عنہماکی شہادت کا اسلام میں کوئی مقام ومرتبہ نہیں ہے؟ توپھر صرف حضرت حسین رضی اللہ عنہ کی شہادت کے واقعہ کوہی کیوں زندہ رکھاجاتاہے؟ آخرکیوں؟اس میں کوئی شک نہیں کہ حضرت حسین رضی اللہ عنہ کی شہادت اسلام کے لیے بڑاہی المناک سانحہ ہے،لیکن بجائے اس کے کہ ہم اس سانحہ سے سبق حاصل کریں ہم اس کاماتم اور تعزیہ بناکر ان کی شہادت کامذاق بنارہے ہیں۔ذراغورکریں! آج بھی اہل سنت کی ایک بڑی تعداداہل تشیع کے اعمال سے متاثرہوکر ان خرافات وبدعات میں ملوث ہیں،علما اورمسلم قائدین کادینی واخلاقی فریضہ ہے کہ ان کی اصلاح کی فکرکریں،اورانہیں سمجھائیں کہ یہ دین نہیں ہے بلکہ دین کوبربادکرنے کی ایک منظم سازش ہے جس کے ہم شکارہورہے ہیں۔اللہ ہم سبھوں کو صحیح راستہ پر چلنے کی توفیق عطافرمائے۔آمین

Significance of Ten days of Muharram

Sending Prayers to the Philippines! 

Let us send our prayers of safety and love to our global family in the Philippines as Super Typhoon Yolanda, one of strongest storms ever, heads for central Philippines. To our friends in the Philippines, you do not stand alone and to recite the universal message of peace. May Peace be in the Philippines, May Peace Prevail on Earth?  

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and who-ever He allows falling astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

The month of Muharram is the first month of the Islamic Hijrah calendar.  Muharram is also one of the four ‘haraam’ or sacred months as mentioned by Allah in the Holy Quran.  The other sacred months are Dhil-Qada, Dhil-Hajja and Rajab.  Even the pagans of Makkah used to respect these months before the advent of Islam, and they would not fight wars or do any hostilities in these sacred months.

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 9 Surah Taubah verse 36: The fact is that the number of months ordained by Allah has been twelve since the time He created the heavens and the earth, and out of these, four are forbidden months. This is the right code of reckoning, therefore, do not wrong yourselves by violating these months.

It has been reported in an authentic narration that somebody asked the Prophet (saws): “Which prayer is the best after the obligatory prayers?”   He (saws) said: “Prayer during the middle of the night.”   The person asked: “Which fast is the best after the fast of Rarnadan?”   He (saws) said, “The month of Allah that you call Muharram.”

It has been reported in an authentic narration that when the Prophet came to Madinah and found the Jews fasting on the day of 'Ashurah’. He asked them: “What is this fast?”  They said: “A great day. Allah saved Moses and the tribes of Israel from their enemies on this day and therefore, Moses fasted on this day.”  The Prophet (saws) said: “We (muslims) have more of a right to Moses than you,” so he fasted on that day also and ordered the people to fast on that day.

The Messenger of Allah (saws) fasted on the day of 'Ashurah and ordered the people to fast on it. The people said: “O Messenger of Allah, it is a day that the Jews and Christians honor.”   The Prophet (saws) said, “When the following year comes--Allah willing--we shall fast on the ninth (of Muharram also).”   The death of the Prophet came before the following year."

It has also been reported, amongst many other narrations, that the 10^th of Muharram was the day when Adam (a.s.) and Hawwa met on this earth on the plains of Arafat.   It has also been reported that it was this day of Aashura that the ark of Noah reached its destination or embarked on Mount Judi.   It has also been reported that Prophet Ayub (a.s.) was cured of his diseases on this day of Aashura. It has also been reported that Prophet Yunus (a.s.) was forgiven by Allah and released from the stomach of the fish on this day of Aashura.  

The month of Muharram and especially the day of Aashura marks a very sorry, sad, and painful day in the history of Islam. It was on this day of Aashura that the grandson of our beloved Messenger of Allah (saws), Imam Hussain ibn Ali  (r.a.) and his family were ruthlessly martyred on the fields of Karbala. This was one of the darkest days in the annuls of Islamic history, and every muslim, no matter what sect of Islam he claims to belong to, should feel pain and sorrow in his heart.  

But Allah and His Messenger (saws) did not allow us to do ‘matam’ or physically beat ourselves, and wail over our martyrs. The Messenger of Allah (saws) said in an authentic narration that: “He is not a believer who wails, beats himself, and tears his clothes, when afflicted by a calamity.”   Every muslim should feel the pain and sorrow in his heart, and pray to Allah to grant all the martyrs of Karbala the highest honor in Paradise, on the Day of Judgment.

But to spend the day of Aashura in waling and beating ourselves is not a part of the deen of Islam.  Some sects have huge gatherings, where they recite the stories with extra ingredients, and wail and cry and beat themselves in frenzy!  These acts have absolutely no place in Islam, and are nothing but innovations.  Allah will reward the martyrs of Karbala for their deeds, and Allah will punish the murderers for their deeds, and Allah will not ask us about their deeds:

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 2 Surah Baqarah verse 134: They were a people who passed away.  They shall receive the reward of what they earned and you shall have the reward of what you will earn.   And you will not be questioned as to what they did.

The above aayah is one of the principles of Islam. Allah will reward each and everyone for their deeds, and we will not be asked about the deeds of others.

Thus, it is not a part of Islam to beat ourselves and wail for any calamity that might have befallen us or on anybody we love.   Allah is sufficient to account for the good deeds as well as the bad deeds on the Day of Judgment.   But if we wail, cry and beat ourselves physically, to please some of the martyrs of Karbala, or anybody else other than Allah, hoping that these martyrs will recognize and appreciate our efforts on the Day of Judgement, then this becomes more than following an innovation; it becomes ‘shirk’, and ‘shirk’ is an abomination of a sin!   

And Allah Alone Knows Best, and He is the Only Source of Strength.

May Allah guide us to the Straight Path of Islam?

May Allah guide you and us all to the Siraat al-Mustaqeem

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me.  Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

Conspiracy to finish Urdu from Maulana Azad National Urdu University

The identity of Maulana Azad National Urdu University is in danger. Due to its national character, the domination of north Indians was being felt hitherto but with the appointment of non-Urdu knowing teachers, it is losing its Urdu character. Urdu University was founded on the basis of promoting Urdu language and imparting higher education through the medium of Urdu to link it with job oriented courses. The way in which Urdu University is functioning gives and impression that Urdu is being eradicated in a phased manner systematically.

Maulana Azad Urdu University issued employment notification last week which indicates that it is making an attempt to end Urdu. The notification issued by the university on 28th October inviting applications for 41 posts of Associate Professors and Asst. Professors. When Urdu speakers read this notification, they were wonderstruck since Urdu language was not made compulsory in the notification. It may be pointed out that in the earlier notifications Urdu was “Compulsory” but in recent advertisement it has been written as “knowledge of Urdu is essential”. In the earlier advertisements, it used to be mentioned clearly that the candidates for any teaching posts should have studied Urdu as one of the subjects at SSC, Intermediate or Degree level. In the notification number 25/2011 issued on 27th January 2011 it is clearly mentioned that for teaching staff study of Urdu as a subject at SSC, Intermediate or Graduation is compulsory. In the notification which is now published, the clause of knowledge of Urdu has been diluted. It clearly indicates that the University administration is inclined to appoint candidates on the considerations of nepotism, recommendations and by relaxing the rules of knowing Urdu to accommodate non-Urdu knowing teachers in the University.

Many complaints were received in the past about nepotism in appointments and many other irregularities. Urdu University has been established to promote Urdu language and literature but with its activities one feels that it is providing opportunities for the entry of non-Urdu teaching staff.

Right from its inception, the Urdu University was not liked by the non-Urdu speakers and the so-called progressive people. They were opposing to limit the University to Urdu only. They had started giving suggestions to start various other courses. It may be noted that this University has been established to impart education in Urdu but at the entrance, every day a Hindi word is entered with a view to promoting Hindi language. Many people objected to it but the management substantiated it saying that Hindi is national language and there is no harm in teaching Hindi. All those persons who had struggled for the formation of Urdu University must be aggrieved by hearing that the management of the University is making an organized effort to appoint non-Urdu teachers. The university sources maintained that for the reserved posts, it is not possible to get Urdu knowing persons. This argument of the management is inappropriate. The University administration should know that in case competent and qualified Urdu knowing persons are not available for appointment to the reserved posts, these posts could be de-reserved with the permission of Dept. of Personnel, Govt. of India.

It seems that the management of Urdu University is mentally prepared to induct non- Urdu knowing teachers. It may be noted that in the reserved seats Unani medical courses in which the medium of instruction is Urdu, Non-Urdu students were given seats which spoiled the standard of teaching in Unani medical college. In the same way, the process of ruining Urdu University seems to have been started. If the Urdu knowing people do not raise to the occasion for the protection of Urdu in Maulana Azad National Urdu University, very soon, this University will be in the hands non-Urdu knowing people. It will meet the same fate as Osmania University in the past.
