54-The Prophet's Compamioms At The Court Of Wisdom And History

54_ THE PROPHET'S COMPANIONS AT THE COURT OF WISDOM AND HISTORY
WE BELIEVE that there were many great men of devotion and chastity among the companious of the prophet; but all of them were not so, because the HOLY QUR?N declares many among them as being kypocrites!(1)

There were also men who broke their allegiance with the VICEGERENT OF GOD, after the prophet, and made wars and shed the blood of thousands of Muslims upon the soil.

 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

.- (THE VERSES IN: Sq _ S29 and S63 WHICH IS CALLED THE HYPOCRITES)

In other word, how can we judge that both of the two parties who made the battles of seffain and jamal were rightful and, on the righteous path? How can both of the two group of combatants be honest and truthful?

Some bring forth the foot of religious researches and self exegeis on the ground by saying that:_ `Surely one of the two parties was wrong and oppresive, but as they were taking their decisions by their EXEGESIS, both parties were on righteousness in the sight of God!_This, we cannot accept easily.

How could one with his own exegesis and self_comprehensions break his allegiance and loyalty to the VICEGERENT OF GOD, who is entitled to obedience, and create such fearful wars between Muslims, grouping them and shedding streams of their blood. with the justification that his exegesis and self researches have decreed him to do so!? What else then can not be justified by such prsonal comprehensions and self commentaries?

Let us be more frank, that every one, even the nearest companions of the prophet are held in pledge

of their deeds and are responsible for what they have done and have to answer for it:_

"The most honoured of you in Allah's sight, is he who is the most virtuous (CHASTE) of you."

THE HOLY QUR?N _ S49: 13

The above holy verse is true for all even for the nearest companions of the prophet.

We therefore have to judge them by their deeds, and we should have a resonable definition for them all. Those who were truthful at the presence of the Apostle, at his absence too, did their best to guard the religion and to observe his commandments. They remained faithful to their covenant and respected their promises.

On the other hand, those among his companions who were hypocrites and vexed him, did the same after him.

whatever they did, was against Islam and Muslims.

"You shall find no believer in Allah and the last judgement to love those who oppose Allah and His Apostle, even though they be their father, their sons,

their brothers, or their nearest kindred. Allah has inscribed the faith in their hearts and Has strengthened them with a SPIRIT OF HIS, God will admit them to the GARDENS OF BLISS, beneath which streams flow, wherein they shall live for ever. They are the PARTY OF ALLAH, and Allah's party shall achieve felicity."

THE HOLY QUR?N _ S58: 22

We believe that those who harmed the prophet in his presence or absence do not worth an admire.

Of course we must not forget that some of the companions of the prophet showed the utmost truthfulness and sincerity with the greatest self_sacrifices and have been admired by God Himself and so were a group who followed them later:_

"The vangaurd of Islam; the first of those who forsook their homes, and of those who gave them aid; and also those who followed them in good deeds:_ Well pleased is Allah with them and they with Allah. For them is prepared GARDENS OF BLISS, under which streams flow. They dwell therein for ever. That's the Supreme

Felicity

THE HOLY QUR?N _ S9: 100

This was our belief in brief about the companions of our prophet.
