Chapter 18: What Has been Said Concerning the Reason for Mankind's Disbelief and abandonment of their religion-it is Exaggerated Praise of the Righteous

Allah says: "O! you People of the Book! Commit not excesses in your religion or say of Allah anything but the truth" (4:171) "And they said: "Do not abandon your gods: Do not abandon Wadd, nor Yaghooth, or Ya'ooq, or Nasr,"and they have led many astray. And [oh, Allah!] Grant increase to the wrong-doers save error" (71:23-24)

Ibn 'Abbas said: the idols of the people fo Noah were known amoung the Arabs later on. Wadd belonged to (the tribe of) Kalb in Dawmat al-Jandal. Suwaa' belonged to Hudhayl. Taghoot belonged to Muraad, then to Bani Ghutayf in al-Jawf, near Sabaa'. Ya'ooq belonged to Hamadaan. Nasar belonged to Humayr of Aal Dhi'l-Kalaa'. These were names of righteous men from the people fo Noah when they died; the devil inspired their people to set up idols in the places where they had used to sit and to call those idols by their names. They did that but they did not worship them, but after those people died and knowledge had been forgotten, then they started to worship them. (Bukhari, 4636)

The Messenger of Allah said: "Do not extol me as the Christians extolled the son of Mary; I am no more than a slave (of Allah) and so (instead), say: Allah's slave and His Messenger." (Agreed upon)

The Messenger of Allah said: "Beware of exaggerated praise for it was only this which led those before you to destruction" (Ahmad an Nasaa'ee and Ibn Maajah, declared authentic (saheeh) by Ibn Taymeeyah and is found in As Saheehah of Al Albaanee #1283)

The Messenger of Allah said: "Destroyed are those who are extreme" and he repeated it three times" (Muslim)

Chapter 19: What Has been said Concerning the Condemnation of One Who Worships Allah at the Grave of a Righteous Man- and Therefore of One Who Worships Its Inhabitant

Umm Salamah told the Messneger of Allah about a church she had seen in Abyssinia in which there were-pictures. The Prophet said: "Those people, when a reighteous member of their group or pious slave of Allah dies, they build a Mosque over his grave and make images therein; they are the worst of the creation in the sight of Allah" (Agreed upon)

Ibn Al Qayyim said: "In Most cases, the reason why nations fall into polytheism is because of images and graves." (Zaad al-Ma'aad, 3/458)

"When the Messenger of Allah was close to death, he covered his face with a cloth and then when it became difficult for him to breathe, he uncovered his Face and said: "May Allah curse the Jews and Chritians who took the graves of their Prophets as places of worship, do not imitate them" "And, (added 'Aa'ishah,) "if it had not been for this, his grave might have been raised above the ground, but it was feared that it would be taken as a place of worship." (Agreed upon)

The Prophet said five days before his death: "Your predecessors used to take their Prophets' graves as places of worship, so not make graves into places of worship for I have forbidden you to do this."He forbade it (building over graves) towards the end of his life and cursed whoever did so likewise praying near them. even if no building is erected over them and this is the intended meaning here, since none of the Companions would have built a mosque over the grave of the Messenger of Allah, for every place where the intention for prayer is made is a place of worship; indeed, every place which is used as a place of prayer may be classified as a mosque, as He said:

"The whole earth has been made for me a pure and clean mosque." (Agreed upon)

[The Prophet said: "All the earth is a mosque apart from the graveyards and bathrooms." (Thirmidhee, 317; Ibn Maajah;classed as saheeh by Albaanee in Saheeh Ibn Maajah, 606])

Chapter 20: What has Been Said About Exaggeration in Raising up the Graves of the Righteous and How They Tend to Become Idols Worshiped Besides Allah

Imam Malik has reported in his book, Al-Muwatta', that the Messenger of Allah said: "o, Allah! Do not let my grave become an idol that is worshipped: Allah's Wrath is Immense against those peoples who turned the graves of their Prophets into mosques." (Al Albaanee graded it saheeh in Tadheer As-Saajid #11]

Ibn Jareer reports, on the authority of Sufyaan, from Mansoor, from Mujahid (that he said): "Have you seen Al-Laat and Al-'Uzza and another, Manaat, the third [diety]?"-He (Al-Laat) used to prepare sawed for the pilgrms, and when he died, the people began to sit at his grave." And this has been reported by Abu Jawza from Ibn Abbar that he used to prepare sawed for the pilgrims (Ibn Jareer)

Allah's Messenger said: "Cursed are those women who visit the graves and those who take them as places of worship" (Narrated by Abu Dawood, At-Tirmidhee and An Nasaa'ee, declared authentic (saheeh) except for the mention of 'placing lights (on the graves) by Al Albaanee in Ad Da'eefah #225 & Tadheer as Saajid #43, Al Albaanee pointed out that although there is no authentic hadeeth mentioning the curse for it, it remains an innovation nevertheless)

Allah says: "Do you not see those who were given a portion of the Book? they believe in Al-Jibt and At-Taaghoot and say to the unbelievers that they are guided than the believers!" (4:51)

"Say: "Shall I inform you of something much worse than this [as judged] by the treatment it recieved from Allah? Those who incurred the curse of Allah and His wrath, those of whom some he transformed into apes and some into swine, those who worshipped At-Taghoot - they are worse in rank and far astray from the even Path" (5:60)

Umar said: "Al-Jibt means magic and At-Taaghoot means the devil" ["Ibn Hajr Al Asqaalani said "...its like is reported from Umar with a strong chain of narration" 8/251 Fath ul Bari, Ibn Uthaymeen said: "As for his explanation of at taghoot with the devil (ash shaytaan), then indeed this is from what enters into tafseer by examples" [Al Qawl Al Mufeed 2/9-10]]

"And thus did we make their case known to the people that they might know that the Promise of Allah is true & that there can be no doubt about the Hour. When they disputed amoung themselves about their affair, [some] said: "Construct a building over them." Their Lord knows best about them: Those who prevailed over their affair said "Verily, we will build a place of worship over them."" (18:21)

The Messenger of Allah said: "Surely you will follow the way of those before you just as the flight of one arrow resembles another, so much so, that even if they entered the hole of a lizar, you would enter it." They said: "the Jews and Christians?" He replied: "(If not them) then whom?" (Agreed Upon)

The Messenger of Allah said: "Verily Allah folded the earth for me, so much so that I saw its East and its west: The kingdom of my nation will reach as far as the earth was folded for me. The two treasures, both the red and the white were given to me. I prayed to my Lord that He may not destroy my naiton by a widespread drought and not give sovereignty over them to an enemy who annihilates them in larger numbers except from amoung themselves and then verily my Lord said: "Oh Muhammad! When I issue a decree, it is not withdrawn: I have promised your nation that I will not destroy it by a widespread drought and I shall not give sovereignty of them to an enemy who exterminates them in large numbers, even if they are stormed from all sides of the earth except from among themselves only a portion of them will destroy another portion and a portion will take another portion prisoner" This was also narrated by Al-Barqaani, who added: "I fear for my nation those leaders who will send them astray: When the sword is used among my people, it will not be withdrawn from them until the Day of Resurrection and the Hour will not come until a tribe from among my nation attach themselves to the polytheists and large groups (fi'amm)of my people worship idols; and there will be amoung my nation thrity liars, all them claiming that he is a prophet, though I am the Seal of the Prophets - none will come after me. But some of my nation will continue to hold to the truth and they will be victorious and they will not be harmed by those who oppsose them until Alla's Command comes."

The Prophet said: "Whoever went to a fortuneteller and believed in what he said is free of what was revealed to Muhammad" [Abu Dawood #3904, saheeh, See Irwaa Al Ghaleel of Albaanee #2006]

The Prophet said: "Whoever practices at-tiyarah, or tells fortunes or seeks advice from a fortune-teller or practices magic or asks another to do is not one of us and whoever goes to a soothsayer and believers what he tells him as disbelieved in that was revealed to Muhammad."

Allah says: "they said: "your evil omens are with yourselves." If you are admonished [do you deem it an evil omen?] No! But you are a people transgressing all bounds" (36:19)

The Messenger of Allah said: "There are four traites remaining from the pre-Islamic days of ignorance to be found in my nation, which they will not abandon: (i) Pride in the nobility of one's ancestors, (ii) defaming the ancestors of others, (iii) seeking rainfall from the stars and excessive mourning and wailing for the dead." (Muslim)

Zaid Ibn Khalid Al-Juhani said: "Allah's Messenger prayed the morning-prayer with us in Al-Hudaibiyaah after it had rained during the night and when he had finished, he addressed the people saying "Do you know what your Lord said?" they said "Allah and his Messenger knows best" he Said."Allah said "Some of my slaves this morning are true believers in Me and others are disbelievers: As for those who say: "We have received rain from the Bounty of Allah and His Mercy," they are Believers in Me and disbelievers in the stars, while those who say: "We have received rain from the movements of such-and-such a star," are disbelievers in me and believers in the stars."

It is reported by Bukhari and Muslim, on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas a hadith carrying the same meaning as the previous Hadith: "Some (of the people) said: "the promise of rain of such-and-such a star has come true."

If only the evil-doers could see, Behold! they would see the punishment and that to Allah belongs all power, and Allah will strongly enforce the punishment" (2:165)

Allah's Messenger said: "None of you truely believe until I am more beloved by him than his sons his father and all of mankind" (Agreed upon)

Allah says: "To whosoever desires the life of this world and its glitter, we shall pay [the price of] their deeds therein - without decrease. They are those for whom there is nothing in the Hereafter except the Fire: Vair are their deeds therein" (11:15-16)

Allah's Messenger said: "Perish the slave of the deenar, the dirham, the khameesah (expensive, luxurious clothing) and the khameelah (Richly embroidered garments) if he is given these things, he is pleased and if he is not, he is displeased. May such a person perish and be of the losers and if he is pierced with a thorn, may he not find anyone to remove it. Felicity (or, according to some scholars, a tree in Paradise) is for the one who holds the reins of his horse to strive in Allah's cause, with his hair unkempt and his feet covered with dust: If he is placed in the vanguard he will be found in the vanguard and if he is placed in the rearguard, he will be found in the rearguard. If he asks for permission, it is not granted and if he intercedes, it is not accepted." (Bukhari)
