The proof for Caliphate and Imamate at all times and place
In the name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful
:Allah SWT said
{إِنَّ
اللَّهَ وَمَلائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ يَا أَيُّهَا
الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا صَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ وَسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيمًا}
صدق الله العظيم, [الأحزاب:56]
Allah bestows blessings on the Prophet, and also do His angels (by asking forgiveness and blessing for him)
. O you who believe,pray for him (invoke blessings) and ask (for him) peace
[Surah: 33 -Al-Ahzab- Verse: 56]
May the peace and blessings of Allah be upon Muhammad the Messenger of Allah and upon his pure
family (pure of associating partners with Allah) and upon the followers of the truth We
will start our topic searching in the clear verses of the Book
regarding choosing the Caliph (successor) of Allah: Is it of the right
of any of the servants of Allah to choose His Caliph? Or do they have
any authority over that? Nay, It is Allah who chooses, because His
servants do not know except what Allah, The Most Wise, the All Knower,
teaches them
:Allah SWT said
فَإِذَا
سَوَّيْتُهُ وَنَفَخْتُ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِي فَقَعُوا لَهُ سَاجِدِينَ ﴿72﴾
فَسَجَدَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ كُلُّهُمْ أَجْمَعُونَ ﴿73﴾ إِلَّا إِبْلِيسَ
اسْتَكْبَرَ وَكَانَ مِنَ الْكَافِرِينَ ﴿74﴾ قَالَ يَا إِبْلِيسُ مَا
مَنَعَكَ أَن تَسْجُدَ لِمَا خَلَقْتُ بِيَدَيَّ ۖ أَسْتَكْبَرْتَ أَمْ
كُنتَ مِنَ الْعَالِينَ ﴿75﴾ قَالَ أَنَا خَيْرٌ مِّنْهُ ۖ خَلَقْتَنِي
مِن نَّارٍ وَخَلَقْتَهُ مِن طِينٍ ﴿76﴾ قَالَ فَاخْرُجْ مِنْهَا
فَإِنَّكَ رَجِيمٌ ﴿77﴾ وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكَ لَعْنَتِي إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ
الدِّينِ ﴿78﴾ قَالَ رَبِّ فَأَنظِرْنِي إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ ﴿79﴾
قَالَ فَإِنَّكَ مِنَ الْمُنظَرِينَ ﴿80﴾ إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ الْوَقْتِ
الْمَعْلُومِ ﴿81﴾ قَالَ فَبِعِزَّتِكَ لَأُغْوِيَنَّهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ ﴿82﴾
إِلَّا عِبَادَكَ مِنْهُمُ الْمُخْلَصِينَ
صدق الله العظيم, [ص]
And when I have fully formed him and blown into him of My ROOH (a Word of My Power: BE), fall down you
(angels) in homage before him." (72) Then the angels bowed before him,
all of them, altogether, (73) except Iblis. He was haughty and became a
disbeliever. (74) He (God) said: "O Iblis, what prevented you from
prostrating before whom I created by My Own Two Hands? Have you become
too proud or you were among the high exalted?"(75) He said: "I am better
than him. You created me from fire, and created him from clay." (76) He
(God) said: "Then go out of it (The Garden)accursed. (77) And indeed
upon you is My curse until the Day of Religion (judgment)." (78) He
(Iblis)said: "O Lord, respite me until the day they (the dead) are
resurrected." (79) He (God) said: "You are among who are respited, (80)
until the day of the time known." (81) He said: "by Your Glory, I will
deceive them all, (82) except your servants among them who are
sincere/devoted." (83)
[Surah: 38- SAAD- verses: 71-82
So, choosing the Caliph of Allah is a matter which its decision is only to Allah and not to any of His servants.
Allah sent His command to them to obey His Caliph and prostrate to the command of Allah. Allah SWT said
{وَإِذْ
قُلْنَا لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ اسْجُدُوا لِآدَمَ فَسَجَدُوا إِلَّا إِبْلِيسَ
كَانَ مِنَ الْجِنِّ فَفَسَقَ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِ أَفَتَتَّخِذُونَهُ
وَذُرِّيَّتَهُ
أَوْلِيَاء مِن دُونِي وَهُمْ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ بِئْسَ لِلظَّالِمِينَ بَدَلاً}
صدق الله العظيم, [الكهف:50]
Behold!
We said to the angels, "Bow down (in homage) to Adam": They bowed down
except Iblis. He was of the Jinn, and he transgressed against the
Command of his Lord. Do you then take him and his offspring as
protecting ally/helpers other than Me while they are unto you an enemy!
How wretched is (this) for the unjust as an alternative!
[Surah: 18 – Al-Kahf- Verse: 50
Allah
did not ask the opinion of His angels withdrawn near to Him regarding
choosing His Caliph because they have no authority whatsoever in that.
It is Allah who chooses His Caliph and commands them to bow in
prostrating to Him. In line with the verses Allah said
إِذْ
قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ إِنِّي خَالِقٌ بَشَرًا مِّن طِينٍ ﴿71﴾
فَإِذَا سَوَّيْتُهُ وَنَفَخْتُ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِي فَقَعُوا لَهُ
سَاجِدِينَ ﴿72﴾ فَإِذَا سَوَّيْتُهُ
وَنَفَخْتُ فِيهِ مِن رُّوحِي فَقَعُوا لَهُ سَاجِدِينَ
صدق الله العظيم [ص]
And
when your Lord said to the angels: Indeed, I am creating a human from
clay, (71) And when I have fully formed him and blown into him of My
ROOH (a Word of My Power: BE), fall down in homage before him."
[Surah: 38- SAAD- verses: 71-72
But
at the beginning, before Allah created Adam PBUH, the angels were taken
by jealousy without just cause, as they see that they are more deserved
that the Caliph of Allah be from them, the one that Allah will make His
Caliph (successor) over angels and jinn and men. So they see that they
have more right in Caliphate than other servants, and are more worthy to
get this great honor that the Caliph of Allah is chosen from them, so
they objected/protested and said
{وَنَحْنُ نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِكَ وَنُقَدِّسُ لَكَ}
صدق الله العظيم
while we glorify You with Your praise and sanctify Your holiness?!"
[Surah: 2- Al-Baqara- verses: 30]
:Allah SWT said
وَإِذْ
قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ إِنِّي جَاعِلٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ خَلِيفَةً ۖ
قَالُوا أَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَن يُفْسِدُ فِيهَا وَيَسْفِكُ الدِّمَاءَ
وَنَحْنُ نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِكَ وَنُقَدِّسُ لَكَ ۖ قَالَ إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ
صدق الله العظيم [البقرة: 30]
When
your Lord said to the angels, "I am setting a Caliph (successor/
trustee) in earth,". They said, "Are You going to place therein who
corrupts in it and sheds blood, while we glorify You with Your praise
and sanctify Your holiness?!" He (God) said: "Surely, I know what you do
not know."
[Surah: 2- Al-Baqara- verses: 30
Allah
was not pleased with what the angels said as they don’t have knowledge
of The Greatest Name of Allah and they made their worshiping Allah for a
reward in return which is that Allah honors them by choosing His Caliph
over His Kingdom from them. And they see that they are more deserved of
that than other species that He created, so they said by their tongues
what is not in their hearts; that the Caliph of Allah will make mischief
on earth and shed blood:
{قَالُواْ
أَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَن يُفْسِدُ فِيهَا وَيَسْفِكُ الدِّمَاء وَنَحْنُ
نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِكَ وَنُقَدِّسُ لَكَ قَالَ إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ مَا لاَ
تَعْلَمُون}
صدق الله العظيم
They said, "Are You going to place therein who corrupts on it and sheds blood, while we glorify You with Your praise and sanctify Your holiness?!" He (God) said: "Surely, I know what you do not know
"[Surah: 2- Al-Baqara- verses: 30
Allah was not pleased with their saying and He kept that hidden within His self and only replied by saying:
{قَالَ إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ}
صدق الله العظيم
He (God) said: "Surely, I know what you do not know.
" [Surah: 2- Al-Baqara- verses: 30]
Meaning:
that they are not more knowledgeable than their God. They exceeded
their limits /crossed their lines in what they have no right of, and
that it is a matter in which they have nothing to do with. Allah kept
that hidden and did not show it until He created Adam PBUH and chose him
and increased him in knowledge over the knowledge of the angels, that
is to make knowledge the proof for Caliphate and Imamate at all times
and places. The servants of Allah do not know more than Allah to choose
His Caliph beside Him Glorified and sublimely Exalted is He
:Allah SWT said
{وَإِذْ
قَالَ رَبُّكَ لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ إِنِّي جَاعِلٌ فِي الْأَرْضِ خَلِيفَةً ۖ
قَالُوا أَتَجْعَلُ فِيهَا مَن يُفْسِدُ فِيهَا وَيَسْفِكُ الدِّمَاءَ
وَنَحْنُ نُسَبِّحُ بِحَمْدِكَ وَنُقَدِّسُ لَكَ ۖ قَالَ إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ
مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ ﴿30﴾ وَعَلَّمَ آدَمَ الْأَسْمَاءَ كُلَّهَا ثُمَّ
عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى الْمَلَائِكَةِ فَقَالَ أَنبِئُونِي بِأَسْمَاءِ
هَـٰؤُلَاءِ إِن كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ ﴿31﴾ قَالُوا سُبْحَانَكَ لَا عِلْمَ
لَنَا إِلَّا مَا عَلَّمْتَنَا ۖ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ الْعَلِيمُ الْحَكِيمُ ﴿32﴾
قَالَ يَا آدَمُ أَنبِئْهُم بِأَسْمَائِهِمْ ۖ فَلَمَّا أَنبَأَهُم
بِأَسْمَائِهِمْ قَالَ أَلَمْ أَقُل لَّكُمْ إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ غَيْبَ
السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَأَعْلَمُ مَا تُبْدُونَ وَمَا كُنتُمْ
تَكْتُمُونَ ﴿33﴾ وَإِذْ قُلْنَا لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ اسْجُدُوا لِآدَمَ
فَسَجَدُوا إِلَّا إِبْلِيسَ أَبَىٰ وَاسْتَكْبَرَ وَكَانَ مِنَ
الْكَافِرِينَ}
صدق الله العظيم [البقرة: 30-34]
When
your Lord said to the angels, "I am setting a Caliph
(successor/trustee) on earth,". They said, "Are You going to place
therein who corrupts on it and sheds blood, while we glorify You with
Your praise and sanctify Your holiness?!" He (God) said: "Surely, I know
what you do not know." (30) and He taught Adam the names, all of them,
then He presented them before the angels and He (God) said: "Tell Me the
names of these if you are truthful." (31) They said, "Glory be to You;
we have no knowledge except whatever You have taught us, for You are the
All Knowing, the All Wise." (32) Then He said, "O Adam, inform them of
their names." Then when Adam had informed them the names of those, He
(God) said: "Did I not say to you that I know the GHAIB (unseen/unknown)
of the heavens and of the earth? and I know what you reveal and what
you were concealing" (33) and when We said to the angels, "Bow (in
homage) to Adam," so they bowed except for Iblis (Satan); he refused and
was haughty and he became of the rejecters
[Surah: 2- Al-Baqara- verses: 30-34]
Angels
did not know that they exceeded their limits in what they don’t have
the right of, and that they have nothing to do with this, nay, it is all
to Allah to choose His Caliph among His servants. It is not fitting of
His servants to choose the Caliph of Allah besides Him. They are not who
portion out the Mercy of Allah, and they don’t know more than their God
Glorified and sublimely exalted is He. So the angels withdrawn near to
Allah did not know that they crossed their limits, in what is the
authority of Allah only, until Allah Had created Adam PBUH and increased
him in knowledge over all of them
Allah SWT said to the angels:
{أَنبِئُونِي بِأَسْمَاء هَؤُلاء إِن كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ}
صدق الله العظيم.
He (God) said: "Tell Me the names of these if you are truthful."
[Surah: 2- Al-Baqara- verses: 31]
No
God but Allah, there is no partner/associate with Him, He Does not make
mistakes while all His servants do. How so the angels because of their
mistake in interfering in what is not of their right and their objection
to the decision of their God, as if they know more than Him Glorified
and sublimely exalted is He! For that, they are no longer among the
truthful until they repent to Allah and glorify Him that He is the All
Wise, The All Knower, and that they have no knowledge except what Allah
taught them, Glory be to Him. You find that Allah, the Lord of the
worlds, told His angels that they are untruthful claiming that they know
more than their God, The All Wise The All Knower For that Allah said to
His angels:.
{أَنبِئُونِي بِأَسْمَاء هَؤُلاء إِن كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ}
صدق الله العظيم.
He (God) said: "Tell Me the names of these if you are truthful."
[Surah: 2- Al-Baqara- verses: 31]
At
this point, the angels realized that they exceeded their limits in what
is the right of their Lord only. They realized that their God is no
longer pleased with them, and they knew their mistake that they don’t
know more than Allah, glory be to Him. So they repented and glorified
their Lord and said:
{قَالُواْ سُبْحَانَكَ لاَ عِلْمَ لَنَا إِلاَّ مَا عَلَّمْتَنَا إِنَّكَ أَنتَ الْعَلِيمُ الْحَكِيمُ}
صدق الله العظيم
They said, "Glory be to You; we have no knowledge except whatever You have taught us, for You are the All Knowing, the All Wise."
[Surah: 2- Al-Baqara- verses: 32
Then
Allah wanted to teach His angels and Jinn and Men what the proof from
The Most Gracious is for the one He chose as His Caliph: it is to
increase him in knowledge. Allah made that as the proof of Caliphate on
earth at all times and places until the day of judgment
Allah SWT said:
{وَعَلَّمَ
آدَمَ الْأَسْمَاءَ كُلَّهَا ثُمَّ عَرَضَهُمْ عَلَى الْمَلَائِكَةِ
فَقَالَ أَنبِئُونِي بِأَسْمَاءِ هَـٰؤُلَاءِ إِن كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ ﴿31﴾
قَالُوا سُبْحَانَكَ لَا عِلْمَ لَنَا إِلَّا مَا عَلَّمْتَنَا ۖ إِنَّكَ
أَنتَ الْعَلِيمُ الْحَكِيمُ ﴿32﴾ قَالَ يَا آدَمُ أَنبِئْهُم
بِأَسْمَائِهِمْ ۖ فَلَمَّا أَنبَأَهُم بِأَسْمَائِهِمْ قَالَ أَلَمْ أَقُل
لَّكُمْ إِنِّي أَعْلَمُ غَيْبَ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ وَأَعْلَمُ
مَا تُبْدُونَ وَمَا كُنتُمْ تَكْتُمُونَ ﴿33﴾ وَإِذْ قُلْنَا
لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ اسْجُدُوا لِآدَمَ فَسَجَدُوا إِلَّا إِبْلِيسَ أَبَىٰ
وَاسْتَكْبَرَ وَكَانَ مِنَ الْكَافِرِينَ}
صدق الله العظيم [البقرة: 30-34]
And
He taught Adam the names, all of them, then He presented them before
the angels and He (God)said: "Tell Me the names of these if you are
truthful." (31) They said, "Glory be to You; we have no knowledge except
whatever You have taught us, for You are the All Knowing, the All
Wise." (32) Then He said, "O Adam, inform them of their names." Then
when Adam had informed them the names of those, He (God) said: "Did I
not say to you that I know the GHAIB (unseen/unknown) of the heavens and
of the earth? and I know what you reveal and what you were concealing "
(33) and when We said to the angels, "Bow (in homage) to Adam," so they
bowed except for Iblis (Satan); he refused and was haughty and he
became of the rejecters
[Surah: 2- Al-Baqara- verses: 30-34]
:Allah SWT said
{قَالَ مَا مَنَعَكَ أَلاَّ تَسْجُدَ إِذْ أَمَرْتُكَ قَالَ أَنَاْ خَيْرٌ مِّنْهُ خَلَقْتَنِي مِن نَّارٍ وَخَلَقْتَهُ مِن طِينٍ}
صدق الله العظيم [الأعراف:12]
He
(God) said, "What prevented you to prostrate when I commanded you?" He
(Iblis) said, "I am better than him; You created me from fire, and
created him from clay."
[Surah: 7- Al-Aaraaf- verse: 12
Look how Allah sent His command to His servants to prostrate in homage to His Caliph. Allah SWT said:
{قَالَ مَا مَنَعَكَ أَلاَّ تَسْجُدَ إِذْ أَمَرْتُكَ قَالَ أَنَاْ خَيْرٌ مِّنْهُ خَلَقْتَنِي مِن نَّارٍ وَخَلَقْتَهُ مِن طِينٍ}
صدق الله العظيم [الأعراف:12]
He (God) said, "What prevented you to prostrate when I commanded you?" He (Iblis) said,
"I am better than him; You created me from fire, and created him from clay.
" [Surah: 7- Al-Aaraaf- verse: 12
But
since Iblis/Satan refused to obey the command of Allah to obey the
Caliph that Allah Has chosen in the earth, Allah cursed him because of
his rejection and said
{قَالَ
فَاخْرُجْ مِنْهَا فَإِنَّكَ رَجِيمٌ ﴿34﴾ وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكَ اللَّعْنَةَ
إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ الدِّينِ ﴿35﴾ قَالَ رَبِّ فَأَنظِرْنِي إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ

صدق الله العظيم [الحجر: 34-44]
He
(God) said: "Then get out of it (The Garden), accursed.(34) And indeed
upon you is the curse until the Day of Religion judgment." (35) He
(Iblis) said: "O Lord, respite me until the day they (the dead)are
resurrected." (36) He (God) said: "You are among who are respited, (37)
until the day of the time known." (38) He said, "My Lord, for You have
let me go in error. I shall adorn (wrong) to them on the earth and shall
seduce them all together, (39) except your servants among them who are
sincere/devoted." (40) He (God) said, "This is a path to Me that is
straight. (41) Surely, My servants You have no authority over them,
except those who choose to follow you from the perverse. (42)Surely,
Hell is the promise for them all. (43) It has seven gates: to each gate
is of them a portionallotted
[Surah: 15 - Al-Hijr- Verses: 34-44]
:See what Iblis said
{قَالَ رَبِّ بِمَا أَغْوَيْتَنِي}
...for You have let me go in error
:Then we come to what Allah SWT said
{وَلا يَظْلِمُ رَبُّكَ أَحَدًا}
صدق الله العظيم [الكهف:49]
And Your Lord Does not wrong anyone
[Surah: 18 – Al-Kahf- Verse: 49]
The
question here is: why did Allah throw Iblis out of the right way? The
answer is because he sees himself as someone who has the right of
caliphate more than Adam PBUH. And he was angry with his God; why did
Allah honor Adam and made him the Caliph over angels and jinn! Iblis
sees that he has the right of that seeing that he is created of fire
while Adam was created of dust/earth, but he does not know more than his
God. And because of his arrogance Allah let his heart deviate. Look at
the reason why Allah let Iblis go astray, without injustice
:Allah SWT said
{وَإِذْ
قُلْنَا لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ اسْجُدُوا لِآدَمَ فَسَجَدُوا إِلَّا إِبْلِيسَ

صدق الله العظيم [الإسراء:61-65]
And
when We said to the angels to bow down (in homage) before Adam, they
bowed down except Iblis, he said: "Am I to bow down before whom You
created from clay?" (61) (and) he said: "Behold this who you have
honored over me, if You delay me till the Day of Resurrection, I will
surely seize(all) his offspring, except a few." (62) He (God) said: "Be
gone! Whosoever of them follows you, surely Hell shall be your reward,
an ample reward. (63) (Gradually) befool whom you can among them with
your voice, raise against them with your cavalry and infantry, share
with them wealth and children, and make promises to them." What Satan
promises them is nothing but deception. (64)Surely, My servants You have
no power/authority over them". And Sufficient is Your Lord as a
protector/Disposer of affairs
[Surah: 17 –Al-Israa' – Verses: 61-65]
The
question that the Imam Mahdi put for the people of Shiaat and Sunnah
is: If it is not of the right of the angels withdrawn near to Allah
neither the Jinn to interfere in regards to choosing the Caliph of Allah
beside Him, then how could it be the right of the Sunnah and the Shiaa
to choose the Caliph of Allah, The Imam Mahdi? Don’t you fear Allah?
Here comes the Imam Mahdi unto you in time appointed in the Book of
Allah, and Allah chose him as His Caliph on the earth and supported him
with the proof of leadership and Caliphate so increased him in knowledge
and made him dominant over them (Sunnah and Shiaat) by the knowledge of
The Book, The glorious Qur'an. After all that, the Shiaa people say:
You are not but a liar since you are not Imam Muhammad son of Hassan
Al-Askari, the Caliph of Allah, the Imam Mahdi
:Then I, the true Imam Mahdi, reply and say
:Allah SWT said
{قَالُوا
اتَّخَذَ اللَّـهُ وَلَدًا ۗ سُبْحَانَهُ ۖ هُوَ الْغَنِيُّ ۖ لَهُ مَا
فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَمَا فِي الْأَرْضِ ۚ إِنْ عِندَكُم مِّن سُلْطَانٍ
بِهَـٰذَا ۚ أَتَقُولُونَ عَلَى اللَّـهِ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ ﴿68﴾ قُلْ
إِنَّ الَّذِينَ يَفْتَرُونَ عَلَى اللَّـهِ الْكَذِبَ لَا يُفْلِحُونَ }
صدق الله العظيم [يونس: 68-69]
They
say: "God has begotten (to Him) a son." Too Glorious is He (to have a
son)! He is The Self-Sufficient." His is whatsoever is in the heavens
and the earth. You have no proof for this (assertion) o you say of Allah
which you know not? (68) Say: "Verily, those who fabricate unto Allah
lies shall not succeed."
[Surah: 10- Yunus - Verses: 68-69]
:And Allah SWT said
{قُلْ هَاتُوا بُرْهَانَكُمْ إِنْ كُنتُمْ صَادِقِينَ}
صدق الله العظيم [البقرة:111]
Say: Bring forth your proof if you are truthful
[Surah: 2- Al-Baqara- verses: 111]
Do
you think that the proof comes from your tales and fables that you
yourselves compose? Far, far is that from being the truth. Nay, the
condition for the proof is that is comes from Allah, The Most Gracious,
in line with the verse:
{قُلْ
هَاتُوا بُرْهَانَكُمْ هَذَا ذِكْرُ مَن مَّعِيَ وَذِكْرُ مَن قَبْلِي
بَلْ أَكْثَرُهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ الْحَقَّ فَهُم مُّعْرِضُونَ}
صدق الله العظيم [الأنبياء:24]
Say:
Bring forth your proof, this (The Qur'an) is the remembrance (The Book)
of those with me (of my time) and the remembrance of those before me.
But most of them do not know the truth so they turn away
[Surah: 21- Al-Anbiaa'- verses: 24]
Don’t
you know that the Glorious Qur'an is the truthful proof from the Lord
of the worlds to all people? The Qur'an is the rope of Allah, the most
trustworthy hand-hold, whoever holds fast to it is guided to the
straight :path.Allah SWT said
{يَا
أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ قَدْ جَاءَكُم بُرْهَانٌ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ
وَأَنزَلْنَا إِلَيْكُمْ نُورًا مُّبِينًا ﴿174﴾ فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ
آمَنُوا بِاللَّـهِ وَاعْتَصَمُوا بِهِ فَسَيُدْخِلُهُمْ فِي رَحْمَةٍ
مِّنْهُ وَفَضْلٍ وَيَهْدِيهِمْ إِلَيْهِ صِرَاطًا مُّسْتَقِيمًا }
صدق الله العظيم [النساء: 174-175]
Oh
people, a proof (surely) has come to you from your Lord, and We have
sent down to you a clear light (174) those who believe in Allah and hold
fast to it, Allah will enter them into Mercy from Him and Grace, and
Allah will guide them to Him (on) a Straight Path
[Surah: 4- An-Nisaa''- Verses: 174-175]
Then
How do you want the Imam Mahdi to put aside the Book of Allah, the
Glorious Qur'an, and abandon it and then argue you with your fables and
your invented tales that contradicts the ruling of the proof from Allah,
the Most Gracious, in the Glorious Qur'an!
Don’t
you know that Allah is He who chooses His Caliph and that it is not of
the right of prophets to interfere regarding the matter of choosing the
Caliph of Allah? Allah chooses His Caliph and increases him in knowledge
so that it becomes the proof from Allah, the Most Gracious, that he is
the Caliph of Allah over you and that Allah chose him as your Imam. It
would not be left for the prophets to choose Imams beside Allah, but it
is a matter which is to Allah, no associate/partner with Him. Look at
TALOOT (Saul) PBUH, the Imam of children of Israel, did their prophet
choose him apart from Allah? Allah SWT said
{وَقَالَ
لَهُمْ نَبِيُّهُمْ إِنَّ اللّهَ قَدْ بَعَثَ لَكُمْ طَالُوتَ مَلِكاً
قَالُوَاْ أَنَّى يَكُونُ لَهُ الْمُلْكُ عَلَيْنَا وَنَحْنُ أَحَقُّ
بِالْمُلْكِ مِنْهُ وَلَمْ يُؤْتَ سَعَةً مِّنَ الْمَالِ قَالَ إِنَّ
اللّهَ اصْطَفَاهُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَزَادَهُ بَسْطَةً فِي الْعِلْمِ
وَالْجِسْمِ وَاللّهُ يُؤْتِي مُلْكَهُ مَن يَشَاءُ وَاللّهُ وَاسِعٌ
عَلِيمٌ}
صدق الله العظيم [البقرة:247]
And
their Prophet said to them: "Allah has raised (up) unto you TALOOT
(Saul) as a king,". They said: "How should he have the Sovereignty over
us when we have better right of Sovereignty than he, seeing he has not
been given abundance of wealth?". He said: "Allah has chosen him in
preference over you, and Has increased him abundantly in knowledge and
body; and Allah gives His Sovereignty to whomsoever He wills: Allah is
Bountiful, All-Knowing."
[Surah: 2 – Al-Baqara- Verse: 247]
Therefore,
the prophets have no right to choose Imams for people over the choice
of Allah. Then how do you Shiaat and Sunnah claim that it is of your
right to choose the Caliph of Allah, the Imam Mahdi, rather than the
choice of Allah when you believe that the Imam Mahdi is indeed the
Caliph of Allah
How
could it be of your right to chose the Caliph of Allah if Allah Has not
chosen him and Has not increased him in the knowledge of the Book over
all of you. Allah increases His Caliph in the knowledge of the Book, not
the knowledge of your fables that you hold fast to, which contradict
the law of Caliphate in the Book of Allah. Do you then claim that you
believe in the Glorious Qur'an?! You are untruthful! It is the truth
from your God but you hate the truth O people of Sunnah and Shiaat
I
swear by Allah, the One, The Dominant, Who no eyesight grasp Him, Whom
his grasp is over all eyesight, that if you do not follow the
Remembrance, the Book of Allah, before night outstrip/precedes the
daytime, that Allah will make me appear/proclaim me over you with a
torment that makes hair white of terror, when hearts reaches throats
with fright and you will be humbly submissive O people who turn away
from taking the Book of Allah as a judgeAllah
is my witness, He is sufficient as a witness, that I am the Imam Mahdi
who holds fast to the Book of Allah, the Glorious Qur'an, the rope of
Allah that is the most trustworthy hand-hold that never breaks, not
changed nor altered is the Word of Allah, while you hold-fast to tales
from the Devil that always come contradicting the clear verses of the
Book. You are like someone who is holding fast to a thread of spider web
O you who hold fast to tales that came from the Devil which came from
other than Allah, for that you find therein much discrepancy and
differences from what is in the clear verses of the Glorious Qur'an I
the Awaited Mahdi, announce the challenge in taking the Book of Allah,
for the judge, the Remembrance/Reminder which is preserved from being
altered by human devils. And I call all people of Shiaat and Sunnah and
all those who split up their religion and became mere sects, each party
rejoicing in what they have, I call them all to take the Book of Allah,
the Glorious Qur'an, as a judge to judge among them in all what they
differed about. I will derive the ruling of Allah with the truth from
the clear verses of the Qur'an. And whatever comes in your fabricated
tales and fables contradicting the clear verses of the Qur'an I will, by
the clear verses of the Glorious Qur'an, uproot them and scatter them
like ashes on which the wind blows furiously on a tempestuous day. Shall
I seek for a judge other than Allah? When it is He who sent down The
Book explained in detail! Far, far is that, O ignorants
O
Muslims, Christians, Jews, I call (upon) you to take the Book of Allah
as a judge in whatever you differ in. Don’t you know that Allah Has made
the Glorious Qur'an dominant over the Torah and the Bible and the
prophets Hadeeth (Sunnah teachings)? The duty of the Imam Mahdi is only
to bring you the judgment/ruling of Allah from the clear verses of the
Book as I brought the judgment/ruling regarding the Caliph of Allah who
is chosen among the servants by the worshiped God only, and Allah sends
you His command to obey His Caliph, the awaited Mahdi, if you find out
that Allah increased him in knowledge above all of you and dominated you
by the judgment of Allah from the clear verses of the Book
Don’t
you, o people of Sunnah and Shiaa, who refused to obey the Awaited
Mahdi the chosen Caliph of Allah, fear that Allah might curse you as He
cursed Iblis who refused to obey and was haughty at the command of his
God? The Command of Allah has come now with the truth, and the age of
the Awaited Mahdi has come. May the curse of Allah be upon Nasser
Muhammad Al-Yemeni if he is not the awaited Mahdi that was chosen by
Allah, the Lord of the worlds, or may the curse of Allah be upon those
who refuse to obey and who are haughty and turn away from the one who
calls you to take the Glorious Qur'an as a judgeFar, far it is that I hold fast to anything other than the rope of Allah and disobey the command of Allah in the clear verses of the Book when Allah SWT said:
{وَاعْتَصِمُواْ بِحَبْلِ اللّهِ جَمِيعاً وَلاَ تَفَرَّقُواْ}
صدق الله العظيم [آل عمران:103]
And Hold fast together to the rope of Allah, and be not divided
[Surah: 3- Aal-Imraan-Verse: 103]
Don’t
you know what the rope of Allah is that Allah commanded you to hold
fast to and reject whatever contradicts it? It is the light of Allah,
the Glorious Qur'an, whoever he is that holds fast to it is guided to
the straight path. Allah SWT said
{يَا
أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ قَدْ جَاءَكُم بُرْهَانٌ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ
وَأَنزَلْنَا إِلَيْكُمْ نُورًا مُّبِينًا ﴿174﴾ فَأَمَّا الَّذِينَ
آمَنُوا بِاللَّـهِ وَاعْتَصَمُوا بِهِ فَسَيُدْخِلُهُمْ فِي رَحْمَةٍ
مِّنْهُ وَفَضْلٍ وَيَهْدِيهِمْ إِلَيْهِ صِرَاطًا مُّسْتَقِيمًا }
صدق الله العظيم [النساء: 174-175]
Oh
people, a proof (surely) has come to you from your Lord, and We have
sent down to you a clear light (174) those who believe in Allah and hold
fast to it, Allah will enter them into Mercy from Him and Grace, and
Allah will guide them to Him to the Straight Path
[Surah: 4 –An-Nisaa' – Verses: 174-175]
What
kind of debate and discussion is it that you want if it doesn’t include
knowledge from the Book of Allah, The Glorious Qur'an? How can the
awaited Mahdi prove his argument to you and make your mouths closed by
the logic of the Book of Allah, the Glorious Qur'an, if I don’t argue
against you by the same sure knowledge that my grandfather from
generations (Muhammad PBUH) argued by? Or do you want the awaited Imam
Mahdi to follow your fabricated fables, and that is why you don’t like
to take the Glorious Qur'an as your judge! You have nothing to stand
upon O people of the Sunnah and the Shiaa until you act according to the
Book of Allah, the Glorious Qur'an. What a resemblance between you O
Shiaa and Sunnah and between Jews and Christians. Allah SWT said
{وَقَالَتِ
الْيَهُودُ لَيْسَتِ النَّصَارَى عَلَىَ شَيْءٍ وَقَالَتِ النَّصَارَى
لَيْسَتِ الْيَهُودُ عَلَى شَيْءٍ وَهُمْ يَتْلُونَ الْكِتَابَ }
صدق الله العظيم [البقرة:113]
And
the Jews say: "The Nazarenes (Christians) are not (standing) upon
anything", and the Nazarenes (Christians) say: "The Jews are not
(standing) upon anything." And yet they both recite The Book (the
Scripture).
[Surah: 2- Al-Baqara – Verse: 113
Do you know what Allah means by:
they both recite The Book (the Scripture)?
It
means that they believe in the Books of Allah; the Torah and the Bible,
and recite them but do not act according to the Torah neither the
Bible, that is why they are upon nothing, neither Jews nor Christians.
Allah SWT said
{قُلْ
يَا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ لَسْتُمْ عَلَى شَيْءٍ حَتَّىَ تُقِيمُواْ
التَّوْرَاةَ وَالإِنجِيلَ وَمَا أُنزِلَ إِلَيْكُم مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ }
صدق الله العظيم [المائدة:68]
Say:
"O people of the Book (scripture), you are not upon anything until you
act according to the Torah and the INJEEL (Gospel) and what has been
sent down to you from your Lord."
[Surah: 5 –Al-Ma'ida– Verses: 68
You
are the same O people of the Shiaa and the Sunnah, you don’t stand upon
anything until you act according to the Glorious Qur'an that I am
calling you to, to take its clear verses as a judge if you believe in itPeace be upon the messengers of Allah, and Praise be to Allah the Lord of the worlds The chosen Caliph if Allah: Imam Mahdi Nasser Muhammad Al-Yemeni
