The Destruction of the Beloved Ummah of Prophet Muhammad PBUH - A simple thought with few words.



May Allah shower mercy,peace,honor and everything blessing upon the Prophet Muhammad PBUH.
The harder I try,while cross-checking, to find out any lack/fracture/fault in the evidences Muhammad PBUH left for His Ummah,the more astonished I become. By Allah, the Prophet didn't  forget to mention/warn any single affair concerning His Ummah with exact proves and evidences.

The Palestinians,the Syrians i.e. the People of Shaam will face the toughest trials,destructions,
killings,starvation - everything was warned 1400 years back.As well as all the warnings by Muhammad
 PBUH, the guardian of this Ummah,revealed all the ways and means for the People of Shaam to avoid/ minimize the casualties.People of Shaam, as well as the beloved Muslims in Chechnya,Bosnia Herzegovina, Iraq,Kashmir being killed/martyred for so long because of the fundamental reason Muslim scholars
don't have got headache to read the warning messages by Muhammad to the innocent civilian Muslims.
Instead of saving the Ummah, the scholars are serving for the earthly gain and misinterpreting Quran
 and Sunnah for the End-times.One of the biggest reasons why Muslim scholars in this end-time are way too harmful than the AntiChrist/Ad-Dajjal.

The conclusion,for now,should be with the famous saying of Muhammad PBUH ,"I've told/warned you (all) so many things so that you might get understood (and realize/recognize the future which will be full of fitnah like the deep darkness of night)........... but I fear you might not recognize/realize(the situation soon be upon you)"


P.S. While writing this kind of writings tears always troll and overflood the eyes.  Do you even care
 the least for blessing the tiny-brain-having-author of this little article,so that Allah might save from
sinking in the ocean of grave-sins and then give better understanding of the Sunnah and therefore to serve the Muslims?

Damascus - The Base Of Jihad On Earth

By
Sheikh Husain Bin Mahmud
(May Allah Protect Him)
The talk about Shaam, is a talk of sorrow… a talk of history, and men and battles and happenings and plans and politics and knowledge and inspiration and heroism and elegance and genius and cunning and invention and creation and innovation Shaam and what do you know what Shaam is!!

The Best of the soldiers on earth

‘Abdullah bin Hawalah narrated that the Messenger of Allah ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said: “You will prepare some armies: an army for Shaam, an army for Iraq, and an army for Yemen.” So, ‘Abdullah said: “Choose one for me, O Messenger of Allah!” So, He said: “Go to Shaam. Whomever is unable to do so should go to Yemen, as Allah – Mighty and Majestic – has sufficed for me Shaam and its people.” (.”(Ahmad and Abu Dawood and Hakim and declared Sahih and was agreed to by Dahabi, and declared Sahih by Albani in his Fadaail Ash Shaam, and he said: very Sahih Hadith)) Rabi’ah said: “I heard Aba Idris narrating this hadith and saying: “Whoever is sufficed by Allah can never be lost.”

Shaam… is the land of knowledge and faith

On the authority of Abdullah bin Amroo- May Allah be pleased with them- said, the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said:
I saw the Column of the Book being taken away from under my headrest. My eyes followed the Column of the Book. It was a brilliant light in front of me. Then I saw it was placed in Al-Shaam. When the dissension takes place belief shall be in Al-Shaam".(Narrated by Abu Naeem in Al Heela and Ibn Asakir and Tabarani in Kabeer and Awsaat and Hakim and declared it Sahih and was agreed to by Dhabi, and declared Sahih by Albani in Fadaail As Shaam) and Umar – May Allah be pleased with him- said: The Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said “I saw a column of light, that came from below my headrest, shining brightly until it stabilized in Shaam”(Al Baihaqi in Dalail Al nubuwah, and declared Sahih by Albani in Sahih Al Jami)

The land of spreading out on the Day of Judgment

On the authority of Abu Zarr – May Allah be pleased with him- said: The Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said "Al Shaam is the land of final assembly and the land of Resurrection." (Ahmad and Ibn Asakir and Hakim and declared Sahih by him and agreed to by Dahabi and declared Sahih by Al Albani in Fadaail Ash Shaam and in Sahih At Targheeb.) And on the authority of Muawiyah bin Haidah -May Allah be pleased with him- said: The Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said “You shall be assembled… men, mounted, and on your faces, here, and pointed with his hand towards Shaam” (Ahmad and Tirmidhi and Hakim and declared Sahih by Albani in Sahih Al Jami). And on the authority of Salim bin Abdullah from his father – May Allah be pleased with him- said: The Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said A fire will emerge at the end of time from Hadramawt, and it will gather the people together.
The Companions asked: “So, what do you command us to do, O Messenger of Allah?” He (peace be upon him) replied: “Go to Shaam.” (Ahmad and Ibn Haban and Tirmidhi who declared it Sahih, also declared Sahih by Albani in Fadaail As Shaam)

The Best place for migration

On the authority of Abdullah bin Amroo- May Allah be pleased with them- said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ say “There will be hijrah after hijrah, and the best people of Earth will be those who most closely follow the hijrah of Ibrahim (to Shaam) and there will remain on earth the worst of its people, their lands will throw them, and Allah’s Nafas will hate them(i.e. Allah will hate their hijrah and thus hold them back- Ibn Atheer), and the fire shall gather them with the monkeys and the pigs” (Abu Daud and Hakim and Ahmad and Ahmad Shakir :its chain is Sahih and Albani said in Sahih Targheeb and Tarheeb: Sahih)

There is no good in us if the people of Shaam corrupt

On the authority of Qurra bin Iyaas Al Mazni said: The Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said “If the people of Shaam become corrupt, there is no good in you.”(Ahmad and ibn Majah and Ibn Habban and At Tyalsi, and Tirmidhi and said: Hasan Sahih, Albani declared its chain as Sahih in Fadaail Ash Shaam and in Sahih Tirmidhi)

The people of Truth

And from the Hadith of Saad bin Abi Waqqas, the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said "The people of the west (ahl algharb) will know the truth until the Hour comes."(Muslim and others) And Albani said, “The People of west are the people of Shaam,” as was said by Imam Ahmad and supported by Sheikh Al Islam Ibn At Taymiyyah in Fadaail Ash Shaam wa Ahluh, from two points.
First - that being clearly stated in some Ahadith
Second - that His language-♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥- and the people of His Madinah are the people of West, that they are people of Ash Shaam (See Fadaail Ash Shaam and Dimashq for Albani) And from the Hadith of Abu Hurayrah relates that the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said, ‘’A group of my community will not cease to fight holding on to the order of Allah, the  Almighty, the betrayal or desertion of whomever deserts them will not harm them in the least, fighting its enemies, every time a war ends, a war with another people will ensue, Allah will restrain away the hearts of a people to sustain them with it, until the Final Hour comes, like a portion of dark night, and they will get scared by it, until they shall wear for it shields’, and the Prophet (peace be upon him) said, ‘They are the people of Shaam’ and then the Prophet (peace be upon him) pointed with his finger to Shaam until He tired it’’ (Saheeh: Silsila al Ahadith As Saheeha)

The blessed land

On the authority if Ibn Umar -May Allah be pleased with them- said: The Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ prayed Fajr then came to the people and said: "O Allah! Bless us in our Madina and Bless us in our sâ` and in our mudd (i.e. in every measure)! Bless us in our Mecca! Bless us in our Shâm!" A man said: "O Prophet of Allah, and our Iraq!" The Prophet became quiet and then repeated, the man said: And our Iraq, The Prophet became quiet again and then said : "O Allah! Bless us in our Madina and Bless us in our sâ` and in our mudd (i.e. in every measure)! Bless us in our Shâm, O Allah increase with blessing and blessing… (Sheikh Albani said : Sahih Hadith… Fadaail as Shaam wa Dimashq)
On the authority of Ibn Umar May Allah be pleased with them said that the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said: "O Allah, bless us in our Shâm and our Yemen!" They said: "O Messenger of Allah! and our Najd!" He did not reply but again said: "O Allah, bless us in our Shâm and our Yemen!" They said: "O Messenger of Allah! and our Najd!" He did  not reply but again said: "O Allah, bless us in our Shâm and our Yemen!" They said: "O Messenger of  Allah! and our Najd!" He said: "Thence shall come great upheavals and dissensions, and from it shall issue the side of the head of Shaytân."( At Tirmidhi and he said, Unknown Hasan Hadith, and declared Sahih by Albani in Sahih Targheeb and Tarheeb and Najd here is Iraq as concluded by Albani and others)

The exalted land and the best of servants

On the authority of ‘Abdullah bin Hawalah said: “O Messenger of Allah! Determine for me a land that I should live in, for if I knew that you would be with us for a long time, I would not choose anything over staying with you.” The Messenger of Allah ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said: “Go to Shaam, go to Shaam, go to Shaam.” So, when He saw that I disliked Shaam, He said: “Do you know what Allah – the Mighty and Majestic – Said? He Said: “You are the cream of My lands to which I enter the best of My servants.” (Narrated by Abu Dawud and Ahmad with a Sahih chain)And on the authority of Wasilah bin Al Asqa’ -May Allah be pleased with him- that the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said: “Go to Shaam for it is the best of Allahs lands on earth, He drives the best of His slaves to it” (At Tabarani, and declared Sahih by Albani in Saheeh Al Jami)

The homeland of the believers

Salamah bin Nufail (May Allah be pleased with him) said: While I was sitting with the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ a man came to Him and said, “O Messenger of Allah Horses are being humiliated (ignored), and weapons are being laid down and people are claiming there is no more Jihad and war has ended” the Prophet (Peace be upon him) said:
They are lying! Fighting has just begun! Fighting has just begun! And a party of my Ummah will remain fighting on the true path and Allah will deviate the hearts of some men and Allah will provide the fighters from them until the final hour starts and the promise of Allah is fulfilled and good is on the foreheads of horses until the Day of Judgment. It is being revealed to me that I will be departing you soon and you would follow me while you are fighting each other and the house of the believers is in al Shaam” (Al-Shaam refers to Syria, Lebanon, Palestine and Jordan. It could be used to refer to part or all of these countries. Narrated by Imam al-Nasa’i and is Hasan)

The back breaker of the Liars

On the authority of Abu Hurairah -May Allah be pleased with him- that the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said,’ Faith is in the right, and the apex of disbelief is towards the East [Najd]. Pride and arrogance is found among the people of the horse and the camel [Bedouin Arabs].", and the false Christ will come from the east, and he will move towards madinah, until he comes behind Uhud, then the angels will beat his towards Shaam, and there he will get destroyed, there he will get destroyed (Tirmidhi and declared Sahih by Albani in Saheeh Al Jami)

The land of Booty and sustenance

On the authority of Umamah Al Bahli that the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said “Allah has directed my face towards Shaam and covered my back with Yemen and told me: O Muhammad, I have made for you what is before you booty and sustenance, and what is behind you Help” (Tirmidhi and declared Sahih by Albani in Sahee h Al Jami) As for Damascus and what do you know what Damascus is!!

The base of jihad of the Muslims and the best of its lands

On the authority of Abu Dardaa- May Allah be pleased with him- said: the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said “The city of the Muslims on the day of the Great War (al-Malhamah) is in a fertile oasis next to a city called Damascus, and it is from the best cities of Shaam.
And in another narration
“On the day of the Great War (al-Malhamah), the city of the Muslims is in a fertile oasis in which there is a city known as Damascus. It is the best location for the Muslims on that day.”(AbuDaud and Ahmad and Hakim and declared its chain as Sahih and agreed upon by Dahabi and declared Sahih by ALbani in Fadaail ash Shaam) 'Auf bin Malik reported: "I came to the Prophet of Allah  ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ during the battle of Tabuk while he was in a leather tent and said Salaam, He said, 'Auf', I said 'Yes', He said, 'Come '...and he said: 'Count six things before the last hour: … and the sixth: a treaty between you and the Westerners (Banu Asfar - the Romans), but they shall cheat you and march against you under 80 banners with 12000 soldiers under each banner, the city of the Muslims is in a fertile oasis in which there is a city known as Damascus. (Ahmad and Hakim and declared Sahih, also declared Sahih by Albani in Fadaail As Shaam and Dimashq)
Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger  ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ as saying: The Last Hour would not come until the Romans would land at al-A'maq or in Dabiq. An army consisting of the best (soldiers) of the people of the earth at that time will come from Medina (to counteract them). When they will arrange themselves in ranks, the Romans would say: Do not stand between us and those (Muslims) who took prisoners from amongst us. Let us fight with them; and the Muslims would say: Nay, by Allah, we would never get aside from you and from our brethren that you may fight them. They will then fight and a third (part) of the army would run away, whom Allah will never forgive. A third (part of the army). which would be constituted of excellent martyrs in Allah's eye, would be killed and the third who would never be put to trial would win and they would be conquerors of Constantinople. And as they would be busy in distributing the spoils of war (amongst themselves) after hanging their swords by the olive trees, the Satan would cry: The Dajjal has taken your place among your family. They would then come out, but it would be lies. And when they would come to Syria, he would come out while they would be still preparing themselves for battle drawing up the ranks. Certainly, the time of prayer shall come and then Jesus (peace be upon him) son of Mary would descend and would lead them in prayer. When the enemy of Allah would see him, it would (disappear) just as the salt dissolves itself in water and if he (Jesus) were not to confront him at all, even then it would dissolve completely, but Allah would kill him by his hand and he would show them his blood on his lance (the lance of Jesus Christ). (Muslim Book 041, Number 6924)

Damascus is appointed to be the landing of Isa ibn Maryam

On the authority of Nawas bin Samaan said: I heard the messenger of Allah say  ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ Isa- peace be upon him descend at the white minaret at the eastern side of Damascus (Muslim and Abu Daud and ibn Majah and Tirmidhi and declared Sahih by Hakim and its chain was declared Sahih and Ahmad) and on the authority of Aus bin Aus Ath Thaqafi- May Allah be pleased with him- that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) say- Isa will descend at the white minaret at the eastern side of Damascus wearing two garments dyed with saffron lightly placing his hands on the wings of two angels, as though pearls are dripping for his head (Fadaail Ash Shaam, transferred from Nihayah)

Allah supports the religion with the honorable people of Damascus

And on the authority of Abu Hurairah- May Allah be pleased with him- that he heard the Messenger of Allah  ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ say “If war ensues, Allah shall inspire from Damascus a group of aid, the best of Arab in horsemanship and the best in weaponry, Allah shall support the religion with them”(Ibn Majah and al Faswi and ibn Asakir and Al Hakim, and declared Hasan by Al Albani)

Glad tidings for Shaam

Imams Ahmad and Tirmidhi narrate in their collections on the authority of Zaid ibn Thabit that the Prophet  ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said, ‘’How blessed is al-Shaam’’! The companions around asked: ‘’Why is that’’? The Messenger (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) replied, ‘’I see the angels of Allah spreading their wings over al-Shaam’’.
A person might ask, if the greatness of Damascus and Shaam are such, then where have the lands of Shaam been for these past decades, and why did its people sleep? And why did they leave Jihad in the way of Allah and not support their own causes, leave alone the cause of the Ummah? The answer to this question is not difficult nor is it unknown, instead the answer is clear and open and mentioned in a book in which falsehood comes not between its hands nor from behind it, a revelation from the Wise and Praiseworthy, Allah the Almighty says in His book “Why [is it that] when a [single] disaster struck you , although you had struck with one twice as great, you said, "From where is this?" Say, "It is from yourselves." Indeed, Allah is over all things competent” (Aal Imran 165) Shaam has been absent from the present of Muslims because- for a very simple period in history- they changed the banner of Islam to ignorant disbelieving banners in the form of nationalist and tribal slogans. So the punishment of Allah was that He took away from that generation goodness and imposed on them the worst of the creation, the Masons and Jews and Nusairis, and that greatness won’t return until the return of the eternal Islamic banner, “That is because Allah would not change a favor which He had bestowed upon a people until they change what is within themselves. And indeed, Allah is Hearing and Knowing” (Al Anfal 63). So these Ahadith that mention the greatness of the people of Shaam is not for the Nationalists, Tribalists and Bathists and the communists leave alone the Rafidite Masonic Nusairis, and Durooz and the Christians, instead they are for the people of pure faith – from the Mujahideen who support the truth and stand upon it, who defend the religion from the righteous Awliyaa of Allah who do not seek glory from other than Allah, and who are not satisfied with a Lord other than Allah, and who do not associate with Him other creatures…
The people of Shaam have been afflicted with what they are afflicted today because they have changed the flag of Jihad with the flag of nationalist resistance, and the identity of Islam with the nationalist and tribal identity, and the Aqeedah of Islam with the Aqeedah of communist Baath, so Allah gave them over to what they chose for themselves, and what they chose became a calamity upon them, and what they thought would grant them glory made them disgraced and dishonored, and all of this is compliant with the saying of the Prophet of Allah “If people withhold (hoard) dinars and dirham and trade according to al-eena (a type of trade which is similar to riba) and they follow the tails of the cows and leave the Jihad in the Path of Allah, Allah places upon them humiliation which will not be raised from them until they return to their deen (Ahmed and Tabarani and declared Sahih by Albani in Sahih Al Jami 675)” and on the authority of Abu Bakr- May Allah be pleased with him- said: the Prophet  ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said “A people do not leave Jihad except that Allah sends a general calamity upon them” (Narrated by Tabarani in Awsaat and declared Hasan by Ibn Nuhas Ad Dimyati in ‘Masari Al Ushaaq’(1/107) and it is also in Silsilah As Saheeha 2663) and the Prophet  ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said “Never will the people of a house show oppression except that they will be disgraced”
The Prophet (peace be upon him) told us that we shall follow the example of those who were before us from the Jews and the Christians step by step. Allah granted the Jews safety from Pharaoh of Egypt then they worshipped the calf and then they lingered in entering the sacred land and did not wish to do jihad due to fear and cowardice” They said, "O Moses, indeed within it is a people of tyrannical strength, and indeed, we will never enter it until they leave it; but if they leave it, then we will enter"(Al Maidah 22)” and then they declared the absence of their faith and the weakness of their belief and the distancing from the methodology of their Lord in a very disrespectful way showing the timidity of their minds and the cheapness of their opinion “They said, "O Moses, indeed we will not enter it, ever, as long as they are within it; so go, you and your Lord, and fight. Indeed, we are remaining right here. "(Al Maidah 24)” and this is not far from what the Arab Bathist poet said –
"I have believed in Ba’ath as a Lord, without partner… and Arabism as a religion with no second"
So Allah gave the Bathists up to their Ba’ath as He gave over the Jews to their calves and their cowardice and their disbelief… and how much did the people of faith amongst them shout that- Ba’ath is disbelief, and that Nusairiyah is disbelief, and that communism is disbelief, and that nationalism is disbelief, and that tribalism is disbelief, and that democracy is disbelief, and that the religion with Allah is Islam and not other than Islam “And whoever desires other than Islam as religion - never will it be accepted from him, and he, in the Hereafter, will be among the losers. ”(Aal Imran 85) just like the companion of Musa declared “Said two men from those who feared [to disobey] upon whom Allah had bestowed favor, "Enter upon them through the gate, for when you have entered it, you will be predominant. And upon Allah rely, if you should be believers.” (Al Maidah 23) so when the faithful ascertained that the coin has spread and that Allah has permitted this generation that is lost intellectually, to go astray, the clever ones declared their disbelief in any banner that opposed Islam, and every person who raised it, as did Musa earlier “[Moses] said, "My Lord, indeed I do not possess except myself and my brother, so part us from the defiantly disobedient people. "(Al Maidah 25)” then the divine wisdom came upon this generation that had transgressed itself, “[Allah] said, "Then indeed, it is forbidden to them for forty years [in which] they will wander throughout the land.
So do not grieve over the defiantly disobedient people." (Al Maidah 26)” so the people of Shaam got lost in their land for 4 decades, between nationalism and Bathism and communism and tribalism, their backs being slashed by the whips of Nusairis just the way the Banu Israel were tortured by the harsh winds of Sainaa’ A small group of people of disbelief and misguidance rode the back of the people of Shaam at a time of heedlessness and loss… the number of citizens of Syria in 2010 is near 225 million, with more than 80% that is more than 18 million as Ahl As Sunnah and around 8% of Nusairis and I think that this too is an exaggerated number, and the Christians formed 4% while the remaining 8% are from the Rafidites and Jews and others.
So how did this small deceitful and disgraced group become dominant over the best soldiers on earth? The reason is simple: the goodness was taken away from the people of Shaam because of their distance from the source, and so what has happened, happened…

Who are the Nusairiyah?

It’s a deviated group that came into appearance in the third century at the hand of a man named Abu Shuaib Muhammad bin Nusair Al Basri Al Namiri (270H).He claimed Prophet hood, claimed divinity for the righteous Caliph Ali (May Allah be pleased with him), and claimed that he is the door to the Imam Al Askari, and that he is the heir to his knowledge and the return and road for the Shiites after him, and that the quality of return and door ship has remained with him after the disappearance of Imam Mehdi, and he deceived the right of the righteous predecessors claiming them to be gods, and the Nusairis said that Ali (May Allah be pleased with him) makes spiritual appearances in bodily forms like the appearance of Jibreel in the form of other people, and that his appearance in the picture of (Nasoot) was not except for his creation and servants and they love Abdul Rahman bin Maljam, the killer of Imam Ali, and pray to Allah to be pleased with him as they claim that he freed the Lahoot (Ali) from the Nasoot (Body) and they claim those who curse him to be wrong, and some of them think that Ali lives in the clouds, after he got rid of his body that was imprisoning him and if a cloud passes above them they say : Peace be unto you O Abul Hasan, and they say that thunder is his voice and lightning is his whip, and they think that Ali created Muhammad (peace be upon him) and that Muhammad created Salman Al Farsi and that Salman Al Farsi created the six orphans who are Miqdad bin Aswad – And they regard him the God of the people and their creator and responsible for thunder Abu Dhar al Ghifari: the entrusted with the revolution of the planets and stars Abd Allah bin Rawahah: the entrusted with the wind and taking of the souls of the humans Uthman Bin Mazu’n: the entrusted with the stomach and the temperature of the body and the human disease.
Qunbar bin Kandan: the entrusted with the blowing of souls in to the body. And these immoral people have a night in which the men and women mix. And they exalt wine and consider it good, and exalt the grape tree and prohibit cutting it because it is the root of wine that they call “light” and they pray five times a day but their prayer is different in terms of unit and does not contain prostration (the first person to stop from prostration in prayer was Musailimah the liar) and there might be some kind of Ruku in it sometimes and they do not pray Jumuah, and do not hold on to purification by ablution and removing the major state of impurity before prayer and do not have a common Masjid instead they pray at their homes, and their prayer consists of reciting silly things.
They have memorial prayers similar to the memorial prayers of the Christians, example the memorial prayer of “Goodness for you my dear brother”, and memorial prayer of “Bukhoor in the soul of what happens in the event of happiness and delight”, and memorial prayer of Azan- from Allah we seek help!! And they do not accept Hajj, and they say that Hajj to Makah is disbelief and worshipping idols, and they do not accept the Shari’ Zakat, they pay a tax to their Sheikhs claiming that it is one fifth of what they own, and the fasting for them is avoiding women throughout the month of Ramadan, and they hate the Companions greatly, and they say bad words to Abu Bakr, Umar and Uthman (May Allah be pleased with them all), and they claim that the Aqeedah has a hidden and open side and they alone know the hidden side of the secrets, and from it :
Impurity: it is to support those who oppose and ignorance about the Batini knowledge
Purity: it is to counter those who oppose and have the knowledge of the Batinis
Fasting: it is to protect the secret of the 30 men and 30 women
Zakah: and it is the symbol of the personality of Salman
Jihad: it is to curse the enemies and the revealers of the secret
Support: and it is to be loyal to the Nusairi family and hate its enemies
Witness: and it is to point to the form (a. m. s.)
Quran- it is a door to learn solidarity to Ali, and Salman (Under the name of Jibreel) taught it to Muhammad
Prayer- is 5 names and they are- Ali, Hasan, Husain, Muhsin, Fatima, and Muhsin is the hidden secret, that they claim is a squirt by Fatima, and mentioning these names is enough to purify from impurity and ablution And they have numerous festivals which show the summary of their beliefs on which their Aqeedah is based and from them:
Eid of Nayroz: the fourth day of April, and it is the first day of the Persian calendar, and it is a Majian festival.
Eid of Gadeer and Eid of Firash and the visit of the day of Ashura on the 10th of Muhaaram as remembrance of the day of the martyrdom of Hussain in Karbala.
The day of overthrowing or the day of perfusion - 9th of Rabi Al Awwal a memory of the remembrance of the Prophet (peace be upon him) call to the Christians of Najran for overthrowing Eid Al Adha- they celebrate it on the 12th of Rabi Al Awwal from Zul Hijjah.
They also celebrate the festivals of the Christians like the Epiphany, and Pentecost, and Festival of Saint Barbara, and birthdays, and the festival of the cross which they consider as a historic festival for the beginning of plantation and harvest and trade dealings and agreements and rent and sale. They celebrate the day of ‘Dalam’ and that is the 9th of Rabi al Awwal and they mean by it the day Umar bin Al Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) was assassinated, in happiness at his death and mocking of him.
So is there, after all this ignorance any ignorance, and is there after this stupidity any stupidity, and is there after this disbelief any disbelief. The Nusairiys have taken their belief from old paganism, and were affected by the modern Fatimids and the philosophy of the Magians and they took from Christians, whereof they stuck to it from trinity and the memorial prayers and allowing vine, and they took the thought of coordination and oneness from Hinduism and Buddhism, and they are from the deviant sects of the Batini Rafidah.
The Nusairis today are present in the mountainous regions of Nusairi area in Laziqiyah, and they have spread lately in the Syrian cities neighboring them, and there are large numbers of them west of Anatolia and they are known by the name “Takhtajiyyah: Al Hataboon” and they are called in East Anatolia by the name “Al Quzl Bashiyyah” and they are know in other parts of Turkey and Albania with the name “Paktasheh” and they are present in small numbers in the lands of Iran and Turkistan and they are know with the name “Al Ali Ilhiya” and there are some of them who took Lebanon and Palestine as a home.
And from their name “Al Ali Ilhiya” came the name “Ulviya” and it is a name of Nusayriyyah given to them by France after its invasion of Shaam, and with it they tried to fool the Muslims, and bring them near the Nusyriyyah by showing them as a sect of “Shia”. The Nusayris were the most loyal people to the occupying French, and of the greatest service to them and France rewarded them by aiding them to take over the power in Damascus, and imposed them on the Muslims
As for the ruling concerning them…
Sheikh of Islam Ibn Taymiyyah- May Allah have mercy on him- was asked (al Fatawa 35J): about “Darziyyah” and “Nusayriyyah”, what is their ruling? So he answered:
These “Darziyyah” and “Nusayriyyah” are unbelievers according to the consensus of the Muslims, it is not permitted to eat their sacrifice, nor marrying their women, in fact they are not to be left even on Jizyah, for they are apostates from the religion of Islam, they are not Muslims, nor Jews nor Christians they do not accept the obligation of the five prayers nor the obligation of fasting Ramadan, nor the obligation of hajj nor the prohibition of what Allah has prohibited and His messenger from dead meat and wine and others, and even if they say the two Shahadah along with these beliefs then they are unbelievers by the consensus of the Muslims (end)..
And he said “these people who are called the Nusayriyyah and all the various types of the hidden Qaratimah are more disbelieving than the Jewish Christians and even more disbelieving than many of the idol worshipers, and their damage to the Ummah of Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) is greater than the damage of the fighting disbelievers like the Tatar and the Firanj and others, for these present themselves to the illiterate Muslims as Shiaa’, and supporters of the People of the House, and in reality they do not believe in Allah nor His messenger nor His book, nor do they believe in the commands and prohibitions nor reward nor punishment nor Paradise or Hell, nor any of the messengers before Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), nor in the religion of the previous generations, but they take the word of Allah and His messenger that are known amongst the Muslim scholars and they explain it according to things that they makeup, and they claim that it is from the knowledge of the hidden…” (Fatawa Ibn Taymiyyah J 35)
And he, may Allah have mercy on him said (Faatawa Ibn Taymiyyah 28J) “the Nusayriyyah are from the greatest of people in disbelief… and (Nusayriyyah) do not hide their matter, but they are famous amongst all Muslims, they don’t pray the five time prayers, nor do they fast the month of Ramadan, nor do they do Hajj, nor do they pay Zakat, and they do not accept its obligation, and they make the wine permissible and other prohibited things like it, and they think that God is Ali bin Abi Talib, and they say ”
“We bear witness that there is no god except…Haidarah Al Anzaa Al Bateen (referring to Ali (May Allah be pleased with him)) And there is no cover upon him except… Muhammad the truthful, the trustworthy And there is no way to him except… Salman the firm possessor of strength”
Sheikh Hamud bin Uqla, al Shuaibi (May Allah have mercy on him) “and from the root matters of the Nusairys is the their extreme enmity towards Islam and Muslims and their hatred for them, and the extent of their hatred for Islam is that they call the Farooq, the Ameer of the Mumineen, Umar Bin al Khattab (May Allah be pleased with him) as the greatest of Iblees, and Abu Bakr and Uthman follow him in that. And they prohibit the visiting of the grave of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) because beside him are Abu Bakr and Umar (May Allah be pleased with them)!! And this group was limited to a place in the land of Shaam and didn’t get jobs nor education based on the Fatwa given by Ibn Taymiyyah (May Allah have mercy on him) until France invaded the lands of Shaam. They removed them from their confinement and labeled them as High status ones and allotted them important positions in the country. As for the opinion of the scholars of Islam in them, it is that they have exited the religion as their methodology is based on Shirk and belief of the harmony of the souls and denying resurrection and Paradise and Hell”
So this is the apostate and disbelieving Nusairiyah who Allah Almighty has imposed upon the people of Shaam when they drifted away from the Truth and followed the bellow of tribalism and holler of nationalism and the disbelief of Bathists and the whim of communism and they left the balanced methodology and the straight path...
And honor will not return to them, and they will not attain the station that came at the tongue of their Prophet except by the return to their religion…
The Samiris of Shaam came with more than one calf so that the people of Shaam would worship them instead of Allah, and every owner of a calf according to him, his calf was the real god, and they were followed by who followed them from the people of Shaam and they worshipped the communism, the Baathists and Tribalism and Nationalism and other calves, and now the time has come for the people -of Shaam –and specially the people of Syria- to say to the owner of their calf “He said: Begone then, surely for you it will be in this life to say, Touch (me) not; and surely there is a threat for you, which shall not be made to fail to you, and look at your god to whose worship you kept (so long); we will certainly burn it, then we will certainly scatter it a (wide) scattering in the sea” {Ta Ha 97}.
And that is how the false Gods are got rid of. For it was enough for Musa (peace be upon him) to melt the golden calf and use the melted gold to raise the suffering off Bani Israel, but in the burning and scattering of the calf there is a great wisdom: For Musa (peace be upon him) wanted to cut every relation between his people and this worshipped instead of Allah, so the wisdom was to wipe every print of it so that no portion is left for his people to remember what was there from them of association with Allah and disbelief and their heart do not attach to other than Allah, so that he makes his people realize the real value of gold in front of belief in Allah, that is why Musa (peace be upon him) told them after this great act “Your Allah is only Allah, there is no god but He; He comprehends all things in (His) knowledge” {Ta ha: 98}..
May Allah have mercy on Iqbal, who said:
“We declare openly there is no god but He… Who created the existence and measured the measures And our heads are placed in our palms… we hope for your reward, neighborhood and treasures We would see the idols made of gold… and shatter it shattering the disbelievers above it Had it been other than the Muslims they would have… taken it treasure and measured dresses and dinars”
The calf that the Bani Israel worshipped was made of pure gold, but what the people worship today of signs and similarities of the saliva of that calf that made voice are not less trial than it, if they are not more : for the ruler is a calf worshipped instead of Allah, and the money is a calf, and the desire is a calf, and the thoughts and perspectives and the opposing Aqeedah to the methodology of Allah are calf, and the fear of other than Allah is a calf, and all these calves should be burnt and scattered in the sea of history so that the souls are freed from all that stops it from the Tawheed of its creator..
The first calf from which one should be freed from is the calf of fear, then the calf of desire, and every calf after them is linked to them, and we see the starting signs of the removal of the calf of fear from the Shaam of faith, and it will be followed by the calf of desire by the permission of Allah, then Shaam will return to -how it was before- the land of faith removing from its way the obstacles, and its armies will return to be the best armies in the history, and the people of Shaam will throw the Nusayriy calf in the bottom of the pit after burning and getting rid of it..
If the people of Shaam returned to the platform of truth, and on the tips of bullets, and the youth called out in its grounds “Allah Akbar”, and the voices of the minarets echoed with “Move forth to Jihad” : Then I give glad tidings to the Muslims in the east and the west of a screaming violent wind that destroys the disbelief and removes darkness and roots it out… if the people of Shaam stood and call by the call of Islam then woe to disbelief and its people from the armies of Shaam, and woe to disbelief and its people from the armies of Shaam…
And Allah knows best… and peace and blessings of Allah be upon our Prophet and his family and companions

Prohecies, Predictions and Past Events

 

by Abdur-Raheem Greene

I myself was influenced by my knowledge of the Bible to accept the Prophethood of Muhammad ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥, and have had two Jewish rabbis admitting to me in Speaker's Corner that Muhammad ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ was the Prophet spoken of in their books. It has long been recognized that a sure sign of the truth of a claim to Prophet-hood is the ability of that individual to accurately and consistently predict future events. This is especially true of Christians who often demand "what did Muhammad prophecy?". This is because the Bible lays down this as a means to distinguish a true Prophet from a false . Everybody is able to predict the future sometimes, some are able to get it right a lot of the time, but only someone who is receiving information from the One who has complete knowledge of the future can get it right every time. There are many predictions both in the Qur'an and the authenticated sayings of the Prophet Muhammad ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ that have been fulfilled.
The Qur'an says: "Ye shall enter the Sacred Mosque, if Allah wills, secure, heads shaved, hair curt short, and without fear" (48:28). This passage was revealed after the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ had been stopped by the Quraish from making 'Umrah (the Minor Pilgrimage) and a treaty was made between the Muslims and pagans at Hudaybia, six years after the Prophet's emigration from Mecca. From this position of weakness, in merely two years the verse was fulfilled, Mecca was captured, and the Muslims performed the pilgrimage, shaving their heads, and some cutting their hair.
The Qur'an says: "Allah has promised to those of you who believe, and do good deeds, that He will surely grant them in the land inheritance of power as He granted it to those before them; that He will establish in authority their religion which He has chosen for them. And that He will change their state after fear to one of security and peace. They will worship Me alone and not associate aught with Me." (24:55) And also: "Say to those who deny faith, soon you will be vanquished." (3:12) and "When comes the help of Allah and Victory, and you see the people enter Allah's religion in multitudes . . ." (110:1-2) The first verse was revealed at a time of the Muslim's weakness, promising the righteous victory, and the second predicting the peoples entering into Islam in crowds, and so it came to pass, after the capture of Mecca, and in the time of the Caliphs Abu Bakr, 'Umar, 'Uthman and 'Ali, who were from the most pious companions of the Prophet, were established by Allah in the land, defeating the Persian and Roman empires, so that Islam was established from Spain to parts of China in a mere twenty years. This, in part, fulfills another prophecy of the Qur'an: "It is He who has sent the Messenger with guidance, and the religion of truth, to make it triumphant over all religions." (9:32) Christianity, Judaism, paganism have never regained any lasting dominance, physically and intellectually since the coming of Islam. The secular philosophies of communism and capitalism are in the process of being dealt death blows. At the present rate of #growth_Islam will over take Christianity by 2025 in terms of numbers. See also Qur'an 48:18-21 and 1:13, which promise victory and the taking of booty - which were also fulfilled.
The Qur'an says: "The Roman Empire has been defeated in a land close by; but they, even after this defeat, will gain victory in a few years. Allah's is the command, in the past and in the future. On that day shall the believers rejoice, with the help of Allah, He helps whom He wills. And He is the mighty and the most Merciful. It is the promise of Allah. Allah never departs from His promise: but most men understand not. They crave for the outer things of life, but of the hereafter they are heedless." (30:1-7) The Eastern Roman (i.e. Byzantine) Empire suffered a massive defeat at the hands of the Persians who captured Jerusalem in 614, and after that Egypt and Syria fell, and Constantinople was laid siege to - ("a land close by"). The pagan Arabs delighted in this, as it seemed to signal to them the success of idolatry over the followers of revelation. When this verse was revealed it seemed impossible that Rome would recover. The word, translated "a few", is bid'a, which actually means from three to nine years. Ubayy, a pagan Arab, wagered Abu Bakr one hundred camels that this would never occur. By the year 623, Heraclius, the Byzantine Roman Emperor, took to the field and vanquished the Persians in a series of battles, culminating in the battle of Niveveh in 627. Ubayy had been killed, so his relatives paid the dept. At this same time the Muslims had been victorious over the pagan Quraish and were rejoicing, as the Qur'an foretold.
In part of a long narration found in the two authoritative books of Hadith, the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥  was sitting in a garden. 'Uthmaan ibn Afan walked in and the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ asked Abu Musa 'Ashari (the narrator) to inform him of the good news of paradise, and also that the people would mutiny against him. The Prophecy was fulfilled in that 'Uthmaan became the leader of the Muslims, and secondly some of the people rose against him and slew him.
'Ali ibn Abi Talib, the fourth Rightly Guided Caliph, had also been informed by the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ of his assassination in such detail that he knew the man who was going to kill him, and identified him and pointed him out to the people. They asked 'Ali why he did not kill the man and he replied: "Then who will kill me?" The night preceding his assassination 'Ali had come out, and gazed at the sky and said: "By Allah he never told a lie, nor was a lie ever told to him." The next day the same man killed 'Ali, and his blood spilled down his beard, as the Prophet had described.
Whilst the Muslims were fighting the Jews in Khyber, after some days of attempting to besiege the fortress, the Prophet said that the next morning he would entrust the flag to a man to whom Allah would give victory. He gave the flag to 'Ali, and the same day the fortress was conquered under Ali's command.
The Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ saw 'Ali and Zubair one day laughing together, and he asked Ali if he loved Zubair. Ali replied: "How could I not love him since he is my nephew and co-religionist." The Prophet asked Zubair the same question, who gave a similar response. The Prophet then told Zubair that he would fight 'Ali, and that he would be the oppressor. So in the Battle of Jamal, when Ali and Zubair, in opposing camps came face to face. 'Ali reminded Zubair of the incident, and Zubair recalled, and said that he had forgotten, and he immediately left the battle field. So the battle took place as the Prophet had predicted, and Zubair was the oppressor, since Ali was the Rightful Caliph, and to oppose him with violence was wrong.
The Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said: "The Caliphate(Khilafah) will last for thirty years, then there will be a biting kingship." So it happened. The rule of the Rightly Guided Caliphs was exactly thirty years: Abu Bakr for two, 'Umar for ten, 'Uthman for twelve, 'Ali for two and a half and Hassan three and a half. After that evil spread and kingship was established.
The Prophet also predicted the capture of Egypt, and told his companions to treat the people well, and that they would seize the treasures of the Persian Choseros (Emperor), who lives in the white palace, all of which they accomplished, and that Suraqa Bin Malik (one of the companions) would have the bracelets of Caesar put on his hands. So it happened that some such bracelets fell into the possession of 'Umar and he called Suraqa, and placed the bracelets on him, reminding him of the Prophet's words.
A narration in the most authoritative of the Hadith books, Saheeh al-Bukhari, told Auf bin Malik to look for six incidents before the last day(End Times): "The first,my(Prophet Muhammad) death; the second the conquest of Jerusalem; third, an epidemic among them; fourth, the abundance of wealth so that a man would not gladly accept one hundred dinars even if given it; fifth, a trouble that would involve all Arab families without exception; sixth, a treaty with the Christians, which the Christians would violate, etc... Jerusalem was captured, and after this in 16 A.H. an epidemic broke out in Umwas and seventy thousand died. Wealth became plentiful, especially during the Caliphate of 'Uthman, and after that in the time of 'Umar ibn AbdulAzziz, when the collectors of zakat found no one poor enough to receive it. Also the rebellious war arose in the time of 'Uthman and became worse after his murder, so none of the Arabs families were not involved in some respect.
The Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥  mentioned that the Muslims would conquer both Rome and Constantinople. He was asked which would fall first, and the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ said: "The city of Heraclius", i.e. Constantinople. Constantinople was taken by the Muslims in the fifteenth century. Rome still remains to be conquered, as it will be. So the order is correct, and rest still to be fulfilled. What is noteworthy about these statements of the Prophet is that they were made at a time when no one could imagine that a small city state, permanently under siege by the pagan Arabs, would reach such heights of power and strength, and that these predictions are not couched in some vague terminology open to various interpretations, like the Bible's Book of Revelation's "Beast of 666", and monsters with horns and little horns, or the meanderings of Nostradamus. The language is clear, their assertions direct, and often with specific names and dates.
The Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ also predicted the dividing of the Muslims into many sects and mentioned some of their characteristics. The Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ mentioned that some people would do to 'Ali what the Christians did to Jesus. This clearly refers to the Shi'a, who exaggerate in love and praise of 'Ali. One of the Shi'a sects, the Nusaria, actually worship him as the manifestation of Allah. The Prophet also mentioned that a group would arise who will deny Allah's Qadr (Divine Decree) and He called them the "Magians of the Ummah", and so it happened, and they were called the Qadaria. He also mentioned the appearance of those who would claim the Qur'an is created, and of those who would tell people to take only from the Qur'an and ignore the Sunnah (Prophetic Tradition), and these things have all come to pass. The Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥  also predicted that from the tribe of a certain individual a group would arise who would used the verses of Qur'an pertaining to unbelievers on the believers, and that they should be fought and killed. So it happened that the first of the deviant sects to arise was the Khawarij, who said that 'Ali and Muawiya were unbelievers, and whoever did not believe this, then they also were unbelievers, and they would slaughter the Muslims, and they arose from the tribe of Tamim, as the Prophet had said.
The Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ mentioned that there would be signs forewarning the approach of the last day. Among those that have clearly come to pass are:
The barefooted Bedouins competing in building tall buildings. Today we find in the Arabian Peninsula, the Arabs who used to be impoverished herders of camels and sheep, are competing in building the tallest tower blocks.
The Mosques would be like palaces. This is clearly the case, even though the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ ordered simplicity in the houses of Allah, the mosques have become more and more fantastic, with golden domes, marbled floors, lavish carpets and chandeliers.
Disappearance of trustworthiness, so much so that one would only be able to say: "I know a trustworthy person in such-and-such town."
The increase in killing, so that the one who kills does not know why he killed, and the one killed does not know why he was killed(Illegal Drone Attacks, Killings by CIA operatives). I was recently sent an article from the Washington Post about the rise of gang warfare. Part of the initiation ceremony was for a new gang member(some times as young as eleven) to shoot someone. The second highest cause of death from fifteen to thirty five in the US are gun related. The massacre of civilians in the Vietnam War by American troops who had little idea why they were there, and the increase of such conflicts, is further illustration of the fulfillment of this prophecy. As are the rise of insane mass murders, of children killing children, such as Jamie Bulger.
The increase of the use of riba (usury/interest in Banking) so that no one will able to escape being tainted by it. This clearly the state of the world economy today.
The enemies of the Muslims dividing the Muslim's wealth and lands between them, the Muslims abandoning jihad, and concerning themselves only with the worldly matters. We have already mentioned this.
The increase of literacy.
The decrease of religious knowledge due to the disappearance of scholars.
The increase of musical instruments, and the Muslims making it lawful even though the Prophet has forbidden them.
The increase of sexual promiscuity(Having casual sexual relations frequently with different partners; indiscriminate in the choice of sexual partners), and new diseases that people had not herd of before spreading amongst them as a consequence of that. This is clear, with the arrival of AIDS, and other previously unheard of viruses.
Appearance of Dajjals 
Nakedness of women while still being dressed.
The drinking of wine becoming common, and the Muslims making it lawful by calling it another name.
Shouting in the mosques.
The worst and most ignorant will become leaders and they will be oppressors.
A man will obey his wife and disobey his mother, and treat his friends kindly and shun his father.
Men will wear silk and gold, and the making of it lawful by the Muslims even though the Prophet ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ had forbidden it for the men of his 'Ummah (nation).
People will abandon the religion for a small worldly gain, and keeping to the religion will be like holding two hot coals.
So these are just some of the numerous prophecies of Muhammad ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥, that have clearly come true, and some have been fulfilled in this age in which we live, all adding weight to the evidence in favor of his claim.
The Qur'an also provides accurate knowledge of the past. This is also information which Muhammad ♥رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسـلم♥ was unable to receive except from Allah. Some examples of this are:
The Qur'an mentions about the ark of Noah: "The Ark came to rest upon Mount Judi" (11:44). Recent archaeological research has discovered a boat shaped object with exactly the same dimensions as those of the Ark on Mount Judi. The Bible claims that the Ark came to rest twenty miles away on the Mountains of Ararat. This is not possible, since these mountains are a recent geological formation, and did not exist at the time of Noah. The Qur'an also refers to the flood as a localized event, destroying only Noah's people. The dates and time offered by the Bible for the flood, and its claim that it was a world wide cataclysm, has been proven false by all archaeological evidence.
The Qur'an describes the ruler of Egypt being addressed as "King" in the time of Joseph, whilst Moses addresses the ruler as "Pharaoh". This is a small but telling accuracy, for in the time of Joseph the rulers were from the Hykos Dynasty, and were Semites. They did not refer to themselves as "Pharaohs". The term was used by the native Egyptian dynasties that supplanted the Hykos, in the time of Moses. The Bible again proves inaccurate on this point referring to both as "Pharaoh". The Qur'an also correctly describes aspects of the ancient Egyptian religion, in particular the worship of Pharaoh as a god.
The Qur'an refers to the early followers of Jesus as "Nazarenes". This is historically accurate. The word "Christian" was actually a nick name used by the Romans sometime after Jesus - Acts 11:26 "The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch."
The Qur'an makes reference to a city Iram, which Allah destroyed for its evil doings. Until recently there was no record of this city, and it was believed to be only a legend. In 1973, in North-Western Syria, the 4300 year old city of Ebla was excavated. On the cuneiform clay tablets, a record was found of all the cities with who they used to do business. Among them was Iram.
