			<description>According to Islam, Allaah created man for a noble purpose: to worship Him and lead a virtuous life based on His teachings and guidance. How would man know his role and the purpose of his existence unless he received clear and practical instructions of what Allaah wants him to do? Here comes the need for prophethood. Thus, Allaah has chosen from every nation at least one Prophet to convey His Message to people.



One might ask, how were the Prophets chosen and who were entitled to this great  ...</description>

			<description>Tradition also proves the Prophets’ infallibility.



Almighty Allaah Says in the Quran concerning Prophet Moosa (Moses) may Allaah exalt his mention (what means):



&quot;And I bestowed upon you love from Me that you would be brought up under My eye [i.e. observation and care].&quot; [Quran 20]



Prophet Moosa was brought up by Allaah Himself and prepared for the mission of Messengership. Therefore, it is inconceivable that he may have committed a sin at any time in his life.

			<description>Infallibility is a must for Prophets as Models



The infallibility of the Prophets, may Allaah exalt their mention, is an established fact based on reason and tradition. Reason requires the infallibility of the Prophets, may Allaah exalt their mention, because the Prophets came to convey to people the Message of Allaah. If we liken this Message or the Divine Revelation to light or pure water, as the Quran itself does [chapter 13. verse17 and chapter 24. verse 3], it is absolutely necessary and  ...</description>

			<description>Question:



It is narrated in the books of biographies that Isma’eel peace be upon him was buried in al-Hateem* (in Makkah), if the grave was in al-Hateem then how is the Prayer permissible in that place?



Answer:



All praise is due to Allaah alone and may the peace and blessings be upon His Messenger, his family and Companions. To proceed

Has the one disbelieved who says that ‘the Prophet sallAllaahu ‘alayhi wa sallam betrayed the trust or deceived ‘Ali and that Jibreel (peace be upon him) was treacherous,’ as the Shee’ah say, upon them be what they deserve from Allaah?



Answer:



There is no doubt in the unbelief of the one who says this; rather this is the severest of unbelief. Since the one who discards the truthfulness of Jibreel and Muhammad sallAllaahu ‘alayhimaa wa sallam with treachery  ...</description>

			<description>Question:



Is it permissible to write the letter saad instead of ‘sal Allaahu alaiyhi wa sallam’ - and why?



Answer:



The Sunnah is that you write the phrase ‘sal Allaahu alaiyhi wa sallam’ in its entirety.



This is because it is a duaa (supplication), and the duaa is an act of worship, just as if it were spoken out aloud.



To represent it symbolically using the letter saad or saad –laam – ‘ayn – meem is not a supplication nor is it an act of worship, regardless  ...</description>

			<description>Ibn Al-Qayyim said: I heard Shaikh ul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah (May Allaah render his soul pure) say:



((The patience of Yoosuf ( ‘alaihis salaam ) against compliance to the wife of Al-‘Azeez in her matter was more complete than his patience over his being thrown into the well by his brothers and his being sold off as well as their separating him from his father.

			<title>Which is better, Eesaa ibn Maryam or the Quraan?</title>
			<link>http://iloveniqab.heavenforum.com/the-prophets-and-messengers-f41/which-is-better-eesaa-ibn-maryam-or-the-quraan-t74.htm</link>
			<dc:creator>Ithar</dc:creator>
			<description>Question:



I have heard some of the scholars say: Which of the two is better, the Quraan or ‘Eesaa ibn Maryam?



Answer:



The Quraan is the Speech of Allaah, not created. And ‘Eesaa is from mankind, created - and Maryam bint ‘Imraan gave birth to him. So the Quraan is better.



And with Allaah is the tawfeeq. And may peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and his Companions.

			<description>Question:



Is calling upon the Prophet sallAllaahu `alayhi wa sallam or invoking him in times of need and seeking his help from calamities and misfortunes, from near – I mean, from his grave – or far, an ugly Shirk, or not?



Answer:



Invoking the Prophet sallAllaahu `alayhi wa sallam, calling upon him and seeking his help after his death in times of need and in search of relief from hardships is major Shirk, which removes a person from the fold of Islaam, whether it is done near  ...</description>

			<description>Question:



Did the Companions forbid people from standing when sending salutations of peace upon the Prophet sallAllaahu `alayhi wa sallam?



Answer:



It was never a practice of the Companions to stand when they sent salutations of peace upon the Prophet sallAllaahu `alayhi wa sallam, neither when visiting his grave, nor at any other time. 



Nor was it their custom betake themselves to his grave for the purpose of sending salutations of peace upon him sallAllaahu `alayhi wa sallam.  ...</description>

Is the Messenger, sallallaahu 'alaihi wassallam, present and to to found in every place? And did he know the affairs of the Unseen?



Answer:



It is known in the Religion by necessity, and by the evidences of the legislation (sharee'ah), that the Messenger of Allaah, may the salutations and peace of Allaah be upon him, is not present (or to be found) in every location. Indeed his body is in his grave only in al-Madeenah al-Munawara. As for his soul, then it is in the highest  ...</description>
