English Translation of Al-Quran
[03].Surah Al-Imran
Ayat 31. Say (O Muhammad
[SAWW](PBUH)to mankind): "If you (really) love Allah then follow me (i.e. accept Islamic Monotheism, follow the Qur’an and the Sunnah), Allah will love you and forgive you of your sins. And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful."Ayat 32. Say (O Muhammad
[SAWW](PBUH)): "Obey Allah and the Messenger (Muhammad)." But if they turn away, then Allah does not like the disbelievers.[Tafseer] (Say) O Muhammad
[SAWW](PBUH)!: (If ye love Allah) and His religion, (follow me) follow
my Religion; (Allah will love you) He will increase your love (and
forgive you your sins) which were committed when you followed Judaism.
(Allah is Forgiving) of whoever repents, (Merciful) towards whoever dies
in a state of repentance. This verse was revealed about the Jews who
claimed they were the children of Allah and His beloved ones. When this
verse was revealed ‘Abdullah Ibn Ubayy said: “Muhammad [SAWW](PBUH) is commanding us to love him as the Christians loved Jesus”, and the Jews said: “Muhammad
[SAWW](PBUH) wants us to take him as a compassionate Lord, just as the
Christians took Jesus as a compassionate Lord”. Consequently, Allah
revealed about their comments: (Say: Obey Allah) regarding what He has
obligated (and the Messenger) in his practices. (But if they turn away)
from obeying them, (Lo! Allah loved not the disbelievers) the Jews and
the hypocrites.Hadith
English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Abu Masud Al-Badri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: We were sitting in the company of Saad bin Ubadah (May Allah be pleased with him), when the Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) came to us. Bashir bin Saad said: "O Messenger of Allah!
Allah has commanded us to supplicate for you, but how should we do
that?” The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) kept silent. We were much perturbed
over his silence and we wished he did not asked him this question. The
Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "Say: `O Allah, exalt the mention of Muhammad and
the family of Muhammad as you exalted the family of Ibrahim. And bless
Muhammad and the family of Muhammad as You blessed the family of
Ibrahim. You are the Praised, the Glorified,’ and the method of greeting
(i.e., Salam) is as you know.”[Muslim Book 04,Chapter 15, Hadith # 803]
Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Imran Ayat 31.""If you (really) love Allah then follow me" In this Hadith, the Prophet
(PBUH) has showed us that the manner of offering Salam was the same as
the one mentioned in the previous Hadith. "Al” means the wives of the
Prophet (PBUH) and those of his relatives who were from Banu Hashim and
Banu `Abdul-Muttalib and had embraced Islam. Some scholars are of the
opinion that it is general and applies to all his followers. This Hadith
also teaches us that if one does not have knowledge of a religious
matter, he must seek guidance from the knowledgeable scholars of Islam
about it, rather than going by his opinion. Knowledgeable persons
(scholars) here means persons who are well-versed in the Qur’an and
Hadith and can answer questions in the light of them, and not from the
sayings of others or from their own intelligence.
