New book will ‘defile’ aqidah?

The news bulletin last night quoted Hj Abdul Rahman Palil, Selangor State Exco for Islamic Affairs, making a police report and asking the Home Ministry to intervene with regards to a book proclaiming my shaykh as the Prince of Bani Tamim.

According to YB Hj Rahman Palil, amongst the content of the book is a “claim” by my shaykh that he  “meets”  the Holy Prophet and the Imam al-Mahdi in a state of wakefulness ( yaqazah ).

Maybe our Honourable Hj Rahman Palil should ask someone in JAIS to read to him “Hashiah al-Shanawani ‘ala Mukhtasar Ibnu Abi Jamrah lil Bukhari“, a text by Shaykh Ali Shanawani ( former rector of Al-Azhar University, 1812-1818) on the Abridgement of Shahih Imam al-Bukhari by Imam Ibnu Abi Jamrah. That is if he’s really interested in knowing the facts put forward by the Ahl al-Sunnah wal Jamaah concerning the matter of meeting the Holy Prophet (pbuh) in a state of wakefulness!

I understand that he may find it hard to comprehend meeting the Holy Prophet (pbuh) now since the Holy Prophet (pbuh) has wafat for a long time.

But meeting the Imam al-Mahdi too  will defile one’s aqidah? So when the Imam al-Mahdi finally proclaims himself, we should all AVOID meeting him???

An interesting info I got of a Singaporean’s blog whereby he say about his teacher al-Arif billah Shaykh Hassan Cisse of Senegal

“Shaykh Hassan Cisse also mentioned that he had sought Ijazah from Shaykh Ahmad Muhammad Abd-al-Jawwad, one of the Muhaddithin of the Haram al-Nabawi al-Sharif.He said that the Shaykh told him, “Let me consult with the Prophet (S.A.W) first between Maghrib and Esha.”When Shaykh Hassan returned to the Shaykh in the Haram after Esha, Shaykh Abd-al-Jawwad said, “The Prophet (S.A.W.) says ‘ You are deserving of it’ “. Then he granted him the Ijazah”

Behold! The Prince of Bani Tamim

The Leader before Al-Mahdi

The Islamic World needs a new honorable world class leader and we have not been looking for him seriously enough, in my opinion. The Holy Prophet (pbuh) has already told us who our leaders will be in this era. Everyone knows about the Imam al-Mahdi, but no one seems to be searching for his predecessor whom shall come before the Imam al-Mahdi, pave the way for him to rule this world JUSTLY.

The Imams of Hadith Imam At-Tabarani, Imam Abu Nuaym, Imam Al Kidji and Al-Hafidh Al Khatib Al Baghdadi have reported in their invaluable books the following hadith:

“The Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, was among a group of migrants and supporters. Ali, the son of Abi Talib was on his left side and Abbas on his right side when Abbas and a man from the supporters started to debate with one another. The supporter spoke harshly to Abbas, then the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, took the hand of Abbas and the hand of Ali and said: “From the loins of this (indicating to Abbas) will come a youth who will fill the earth with transgression and injustice and from the loins of this (indicating to Ali) a man who will fill the earth with fairness and justice. If you see this pay attention to the Tamimi youth who will come from the direction of the east — he is the owner of the Banner of Al Mahdi.”

In this era where Islam is branded a violent religion, muslims are terrorists and anti-muslims are given the knighthood, we should be looking for this leader who could be amongst us NOW for he is the one who knows about the Imam al-Mahdi better than anyone else for he is the bearer of the Banner of al-Mahdi. Let the search starts now for we are in dire need of a true leader. Wallahu ta’ala a’lamu bi al-sawab
