Evidence from the Hadith for Jesus' Second Coming

EVIDENCE FROM THE HADITH
The Prophet Mohammed (may God bless him and grant him peace) has
revealed many importantmatters about Jesus' return, as well as some
ofthe things that will happen before and after this event, in his
hadiths. All of this information is from the "Unseen," and was given
to him by God,as related in the following verse:
He [God] is the Knower of the Unseen, and does not divulge His Unseen
to anyone - except a Messenger with whom He is well pleased, and then
He posts sentinels before him and behind him. (Surat al-Jinn ,
72:26-27)
Our Lord also reveals thatHe sent knowledge to Prophet Mohammed (may
God bless him and grant him peace) in his dreams:
God has confirmed His Messenger's vision with truth: "You will enter
theSacred Mosque [Masjid al-Haram] in safety, God willing, shaving
your heads and cutting your hair without any fear." He knew what you
did not know and ordained, in place of this, an imminent victory.
(Surat al-Fath , 48:27)
God gives such knowledge to our Prophet (may God bless him and grant
him peace) in order to help and support both him as well as all of the
faithful believers who were with him.
Some of this revealed information deals with the signs of the End
Times. The most significant of these revelations concerns Jesus'
second coming. The hadiths about the End Times can be found in sahih
(accredited) hadith collections such asImam Nawawi'sRiyadh as-Salihin,
Imam Malik'sAl-Muwatta', Ibn Khuzayma'sSahih, Ibn Hibban'sSahih, Ibn
Ahmad Hanbal'sMusnad, and Abu Dawud al-Tayalisi's Musnad. From these
sources, we learn that the Prophet (may God bless him and grant him
peace) made many important revelations about Jesus, all of which are
consideredtawatur(reliable).
The Prophet (may God bless him and grant him peace) reveals in his
hadiths that religious morality will dominate the world; that peace,
justice, and prosperity will prevail; and that this will be achieved
by Jesus,who will unite the Christian and Islamic worlds. At present,
many societies are under the influence of anti-religious philosophies,
and the resulting models are obvious. Such problems as immorality,
drugs, terrorism, and famine demand that Christians and Muslims join
together to fight these problems on an intellectual level. The world's
current social structure makes an alliance between Islam and
Christianity inevitable. Considering Christianity's influence over the
West and its leaders, the influence that an alliance between Islam and
Christianity would have is clear enough for all to see.

Fathwa - Sex with slaves and women's rights

Question:
Sex with slaves and women's rights
Answer:
Wa `alaykum as-Salam wa rahmatullah wa barakatuh:
The following is a response on the issues offemale slaves in Islam in
reply to two sets of questions.
THE FIRST SET OF QUESTIONS
I came across tafseer of the beginning verses of Surat-Al-Mu'minoon
(Al-Mawdudi), [The Yusuf Ali translation reads,"who abstain from sex,
except with those joined in the marriage bond [spouses], or (the
captives) whom their right hands possess,-for (in their case) they are
free of blame."] and I was kind of shocked and surprised that he
states itis permissible for a man to have sexual intercourse with
female slaves in his possession, in addition to his legal wives
(v.5-6).
Was. Slavery is unlawful (1) in the absence of the Caliph of the
Muslims AND(2) unless it results from captives following a lawful war.
Even so, there was always the alternative to {let the captives go
free, either with or without any ransom} (47:4). Furthermore, the
Ottoman Caliphate had declared - long before the US Abolition - that
it prohibited slavery in its realm.
Further preliminary remarks before addressing the questions:
It should be clear that Islam raised the status of slaves higher than
that offree men in un-Islamic societies even by modernstandards. The
author of _The House of Saud_, an American journalist, recounts how
the staff and management of the New York Waldorf-Astoria hotel were
horrified that King Faysalin an early US visit had not only allowed
his black servant into the state dining room but had seated him at his
very table - a "white-only" table in a "white-only" room! They had no
idea that even slaves in Islam had to be FED and CLOTHED with the same
food and clothing as their owner as the Prophet, upon him peace, had
stipulated in his "last pilgrimage" speech:
"And your slaves! see thatyou feed them such food as you eat
yourselves anddress them with what you yourself wear. And if they
commit a mistake which you are not inclined to forgive then sell them,
for they are the servants of Allah and are not to be tormented!"
In another hadith he said, upon him blessings and peace:
"Be kind to slaves as to your own children...and those that say their
prayers are your brethren."
A contemporary commentator said:
"The masters were obliged not to put slaves under hardship; slaves
were not to be tortured, abused or treated unjustly. They could marry
among themselves- with their master's permission - or with free men or
women! They could appear as witnesses and participate with free men in
all affairs. Many of them were appointed as governors, commanders of
army andadministrators. In the eyes of Islam, a pious slave has
precedence over an impious free man." Al-Tabataba'i, Tafsir
(16:338-358).
What ignorant times we live in, in which a nation that used a legally
- enforceable concept of"white-only" since its inception and then went
on to use it for two centuries, now crusades against Islam and the
rest of the world over self-proclaimed civilizational values.
Islam restored dignity to slaves and enhanced their social status both
by ancient and modern standards.
Islam made no distinction between a slave or a free man, all were
treated with equality. It was this fact that attracted non-Muslim
slaves to Islam in droves.
As someone said, it is sad to see that those who never cease to be
vociferous in their unjustcriticism of Islam remain blind to this
principle of equality when even in this age there are countries where
laws aremade that discriminate against the vast majority of population
to keep them in practical servitude.
As for the allegations of slavery made by the US and UK against
Islamic Sudan they are part of a joint missionary and government rogue
propaganda campaign against an Islamic government which has always
condemned and actively repressed instances of abuse in inter-tribal
warfare, while there has never been anything remotely near a
full-fledged slave trade, cf. the Sudan Foundation papers by David
Hoile posted in full: http://www.sufo.demon. co.uk/politics.htm
What follows concerns the Fiqhi rulings pertaining to the slave period
even if the present tense is used.
I'm far too ignorant to make judgments about the verse and that hukum
taken from it, so Iwanted to ask if you could explain the verse, if
that opinion is generally accepted and why. Do these verses refer
solely to men, or women Believers also?
These verses refer to the permissibility of a man for intercourse with
his unmarried female slaves without having to marry them. Such an
option was not available to women owners of male slaves nor to men
ownersof married female slaves.
Is it in order to fulfill his desires and avoid any unlawful fitna?
(this is hard for me to understand, seeing as how taqwa,
self-restraint, and other things are so emphasizedin Islam)
His and her desires, yes, but within certain parameters including
rights. This will be detailed insha Allah.
However, it seems that intercourse with slaves was probably
considereda method of contraceptive sexual enjoyment through coitus
interruptus (`azl), since the slave owner could practice `azl without
prior permissionfrom his slave mate whilehe could not do so with his
free wife without prior permission from her. And if the contraception
intended by this `azl failed and theslave woman still bore a child
from her master, her child was automatically freed and obtained a son
or daughter's rights including inheritance. In addition, the mother
herself could no longer be sold and was freed upon the owner's death.
From the slave's perspective, the above scenario could have formed an
accepted kindof lawful gamble from which she stood to gain much more
than to lose. This could be problematized with the claim that "the
cost of freedom is therefore rape" but such is just an inflammatory
rephrasingof the truism that the cost of a war captive's life is her
imprisonment; emancipation from which is a dramatically enhanced
possibility in the above scenario.
Consider some more the dynamic of manumission in Islam. It took the
French until the 1780's and 1790's through their"Revolution" and
"Terror"to finally decide that any slave that steps into French
territory automatically becomes free; but Islam had already said, 11
centuriesearlier: a free parent's newborn from a slave is free and
that newborn inherits from his or her free parent.
In addition, Islam gave all slaves the inalienable right to buy
themselves out, either on payment of an agreed sum or on completion of
service for an agreed period. The legal term for this is mukataba and
the slave party to such a written contract was called a mukatab or
mukataba.
{And those of your slaves that seek a writing (of emancipation), write
it for them if you are aware of any goodness in them, and bestow upon
them of the wealth of Allah that He has bestowed upon you} (24:33).
{Alms are only for the poor and the needy, and those who collect them,
and those whose hearts are to be reconciled, and to *free the captives
and the debtors,* and for the cause of Allah, and (for) the wayfarers;
a duty imposed by Allah. Allah is knower, Wise} (9:60).
{Righteous is he who believes in Allah and the Last Day and the angels
and the Scripture and the Prophets; and gives his wealth, for love of
Him, to kinsfolk and to orphans and the needy and the wayfarer and to
those who ask, and to setslaves free} (2:177).
Note that the above verses stipulate that when a slave wants
emancipation the masternot only has to agree to it but is also
directed to help the slave from his own wealth and from alms, which
includes the public treasury (bayt al-mal), the only provision being
the satisfaction that the slavewould live a respectable life after
earning his or her freedom!
In addition, if a non-Muslim slave accepted Islam before their
masters, they wouldbecome free automatically. If the slavebecame blind
or handicapped he would also become free.
In addition to these compulsory ways of emancipation, voluntary
emancipation of slaves was declared as the purest form of charity and
included providing the freedmen with sufficient means to earn their
livelihood respectably. Thus, Islam isthe first and only religionthat
has prescribed liberation of slaves as a virtue and a condition of
genuine faith.
How is intercourse permissible without a marriage contract binding them?
Because the contract in place is that of property which includes the
right to sexual enjoyment but excludes the abuses usedunder all other
historical forms of slavery such as mutilation, inhumane labor, or
killing as was the rule in Egyptian, Greek, and Roman times, and the
cruelest of all forms, unparalleled in human history, the United
States Transatlantic slave trade.(*)
(*) Incidentally, many scholars estimate that over 20 percent of
Africans brought in bondage to both American continents and the
Caribbean were Muslim.
If the man then later frees the slave-woman, and perhaps she has a
child, would the man need to marry her? Is he still liable for
child-support? Does he still raise his children as a father? Is the
man allowed to do this with slaves that are not Muslim? (if so, under
what conditions?) and isthis woman entitled to any inheritance from
him? I was under the impression that a person can only inherit by
eithermarriage or blood-ties. wouldn't she be considered
a"concubine"?
Yes, the word concubine literally means bed-mate and applies to any
female slave that shares the bed of her master. The man is liable to
support any child of his and whatever need of itsmother that is
related to that liability. He is not obliged to marry her but is
definitely held to the responsibilities of a father including
inheritability whether the mother is a Muslim ornot, her child being
Muslim. Nor is she entitled to any inheritance unless he decides to
marry her ANDshe is Muslim. Allah knows best.
THE SECOND SET OF QUESTIONS
1- Is slavery allowed in Islam?
See the very first answer in this reply.
If not then what is the concept about female slaves that the right
handpossesses? This phrase has been said in the quraan a few times.
Captives in a legitimate defensive war.
2- Why was sex with female slaves allowed?
There was no concept that it could or should not be.
If a man is married and he has a slave then why is he having sex with her?
Sex was part of the benefits to which the slave owner was entitled
within the framework of rights already described.
I read that the prophet (pbuh) had a male child from his slave
(Mariah). why should a married man have sex with a salve woman? Aren't
their limitations to sexualdesire?
Precisely, these limitations are those mentioned by the Qur'an.
Doesn't the slave have any rights?
Of course the slave has rights as we have alreadymentioned. In
addition, in Islam, the slave even has rights to bring his or her
owner before a law-court.
What happened to human rights in this whole scenario?
As we mentioned already, slavery and ransom were the alternatives to
killing in war, but the slaves had to be fed and clothed with the same
food and clothing as their owner, they could not be burdened with
inhumane tasks, they could buy their freedoms, sue for their rights,
and had other human rights that place Islamic ethics in the context of
slavery above anything comparable in the ancient and modern worlds.
And when the slave gets pregnant there why doesn't the man have to marry her?
She and her child do obtain other rights as already mentioned but this
is not one of them.
3- Why did the prophet (pbuh) have 11 wives when only 4 at one time
was allowed? [...] the rules set by Allah are equal for everyone,
right? So how was this possible?
Allah Most High set some rules only for the Prophet, upon him peace.
These are known as the Khasa'is al-Nabawiyya or"Exclusive Prophetic
characteristics."
Some of those fall in the category of wajib; othersin the mustahabb;
othersin the mubah; others in the makruh; and others in the haram.
An example of the Prophetic wajib is tahajjud or late night praying
for most of the night. This was obligatory for him but is Sunna for
the Umma.
An example of the Prophetic haram is the eating of onion and garlic
due to his intimatecommunication with the angel, while it is
mubah/makruh for the Umma.
Another example of the Prophetic haram is the acceptance of sadaqa,
while it is permitted for the Umma except true descendents of his.
Another example is that Prophets are forbidden to leave any
inheritance other than sadaqa while anything any Muslim leaves is
obligatorily inheritance.
An example of the Prophetic mubah is his having more than 4 wives
while it is haram for the Umma. Another example is that he could marry
any man's widow while it is haram for the entire Umma to marry any of
his widows after him because they are literally like our mothers,and
some said, because his life in the Barzakh is literal.
An example of the Prophetic mustahabb is to show that certain
inappropriate acts are permissible by being seen doing them at least
one in his life, such as urinating or drinking while standing up, both
of which are makruh for the Umma while they were acts of obedience for
him. Another examplewas to leave certain meritorious acts such as
congregational tarawih and i`tikaf to show they were not obligatory,
while they are Sunna for us.
Another example of the Prophetic mustahabb was fasting without
breaking fast for longer than one day and night while such is haram or
makruh for the Umma.
An example of the Prophetic makruh is to exert himself in learning the
Qur'an while it is wajib for the Umma, or to avail himself of the
niceties of this world while it is mubah for the Umma, or to eat types
of food exotic to his native Hijaz which is also mubah for us.
There are other things that only the Prophet, upon him peace, did such
as going into battle on a mule when no one had the courage to use a
mule but used either a horse or a camel. Or naming the objects in
hisproperty including his mirror and comb. Or his superlatively
eloquent speech and knowledge of all the Arab dialects. And many, many
other attributes.
Among the most famous books on the Prophetic Khasa'is are al-Suyuti's
al-Khasa'is al-Kubra and Qadi `Iyad's glorious masterpiece al-Shifa'.
4- It is said in the koran that when a man dies he can have up to 70
wives if he goes to heaven.
Where does it say this??
It says that he will have the wives in this life and HOORIAN. But for
women they are only allowed one husband. Why is this so?
We do not know with certainty that there will be such a restriction on
women even if the reverse would hardly be mentionable to a decent
woman. A woman in the traditional world would and does consider it a
horrible thing to say to her that "You can have all the men you want"!
The Qur'an would never use inappropriate language. However, the Qur'an
does mention thatfor the inhabitants of Paradise - male and female -
{There wait on them immortal youths} (56:17), {There serve them youths
of everlasting youth, whom,when you see them, you would take for
scattered pearls} (76:19).
If this does not make a believing woman happy then, as Imam al-Shafi`i
said to the one who is not moved by erotic poetry, "You have no
feelings." As for the believing men, as one of the Awliya said, some
of them will need ghusl justfor hearing the verse {Same-age
young-bosomed girls} (78:33). Asfor us hard-hearted analphabets we may
read it and read it without effect.
In this life we know that if a woman were allowed more than one
husband, then there would be problems with the identity of the father
if she should have a child. So this will create problems, and the
father of the child will not be known. But in the after life, there
will not be new births.
Correct.
So then why cant womenhave men in the after lifeeither?
It is not clear they cannot, short of an all-but-explicit orgiastic
promise if that is what one wants.
Aren't women supposed to have the same rights as men?
No. They have some rights men have, some rights men do not have, and
men have some rights women do not have.
In the koraan it says that men have a degree of power over women, ok
fine, but even in the after life its like this? Wont women ever have
the same freedom that men enjoy???? Wont theyever be able to have the
same privileges that menhave?? Are women the lower cast? Is this the
way it is? And women should just accept it????
The so-called "degree of power" verse you mentioned is not about power
but responsibility and accountability placed squarely on the shoulders
of men. The rest of the relevant questions have been answered insha
Allah, and
Allah knows best.

Fathwa - More Women than Men in Hell?

Question:
I recently received the following from someone who is earnestly
attempting to follow the deen, but did not know how to reply in this
regard. Your help would be greatly appreciated. May Allah shower you
all with his infinite graces for all your service to the ummah:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I came accross this Hadith and was very disheartened:
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: The Prophet said: "I was shown the Hell-fire and
that the majority of its dwellers were women who were ungrateful."It
was asked, "Do they disbelieve in Allah?" (or are they ungratefulto
Allah?) He replied,"They are ungrateful to their husbands and
areungrateful for the favors and the good (charitable deeds) done to
them. If you have always been good (benevolent) to one of them and
then she sees something in you (not of her liking), she will say, 'I
have never received any good from you." Sahih Bukhari, Volume 1, Book
2, Number 28
Women tolerates injustices from their husbands during the entire
period of their lifetime. 99% of the wives are treated like servants.
However, Islam does not give women the right to complain, or to react
against the injustice oftheir husbands, or to show the same bad
attitude to the husband as he shows. If a woman does any ofthis, hell
fire is her destiny!!
Please comment."
Answer:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Dear Questioner,
I pray this message finds you in good health and iman.
Hadith literature is a rich and fascinating glimpse into the life of
the Prophet, Allah bless him and give him peace. One of the most
amazing aspects of this literature is the fact that many women shared
in the transmission and preservation of the Prophet's legacy.
After all, if it weren't for the Prophet's wives, may Allah be well
pleased with them, countless facets of the Prophet's life might have
been lost to future generations. For those who claim that women had no
stake in Islamic history, all I can say is look to the hadith and the
phenomenal contributions of women like Aisha, Hafsa, and Umm Salama,
may Allah be pleased with them.
You may wonder why I'msaying this. I'm saying this because you have to
approach the hadith with some understanding of its context. There is
an entire field of studies called Hadith Studies. Scholars, past and
present, have devoted their entire lives to memorizing, understanding,
classifying, authenticating, tracing, and commenting on the thousands
of traditions associated with the Prophet, Allah bless him and give
him peace.
Ordinary students like us have no business taking one hadith and
running to the races with it. If we're confused about a hadith, then
we should go to an expert and ask him or her what it means. We owe the
Messenger, who is the Beloved of Allah, something calledhusn al-dhann,
or the benefit of the doubt. If we see a hadith that looks strangeto
us, we put the best construction on the matter.
First, we should recognize that we may not have sufficient knowledge
of the Arabic language to come to any conclusion on the hadith.
Second, we need to understand that this is one hadith in
thousands.Look how many hadith there are thatspeak positively of
women, andremindmen to honor women. Foremost of these hadith are the
ones that deal with motherhood. For example:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
A man came to Allah's Apostle and said, "O Allah's Apostle! Who is
more entitled to be treated with the best companionship by me?" The
Prophet said, "Your mother." The man said."Who is next?" The Prophet
said, "Your mother." The man further said, "Who is next?" The Prophet
said,"Your mother." The man asked for the fourth time, "Who is next?"
The Prophet said, "Your father. "
[Bukhari, Volume 8, Book 73, Number 2]
Third, there are other hadith that indicate a plentitude of women in
Paradise. For example:
Muhammad reported that some (persons) stated with a sense of pride and
some discussed whether there would be more men in Paradise or more
women. It was upon thisthat Abu Huraira reported that Abu'l Qasim (the
Holy Prophet)(may peace be upon him) said: The (members) of the first
group to get into Paradise would have their faces as bright as full
moon during the night, and the next to this group would have their
faces as bright as the shining stars in the sky, and every person
would have two wives and the marrow of their shanks would glimmer
beneath the flesh and there would be none without a wife in Paradise.
[Muslim, Book 040, Number 6793]
It looks like this was a topic of debate even in the early days of
Islam. It's important to also keep in mind that the Qur'an frequently
mentions the presence ofhoor al-ain, or beautiful virgins, in
Paradise. The Qur'an says, "But those who attain to faith and do
righteous deeds We shallbring into gardens through which running
waters flow, therein to abide beyond the count of time; there shall
they have spouses pure: and [thus] We shall bring them unto happiness
abounding." [Al-Nisa, 4:57]
This verse is a very clear statement on the spiritual parity between
men and women. Both believing men and women are promised a peaceful
abode in Paradise with loving spouses.
Once again, there is no indication that women are excluded from
Paradise and its rewards.
Fourth, even if we take the hadith at its literal meaning, is it
really an issue? Since we're all supposed to be striving for Paradise
anyway, weshould welcome the hadith as advice on how not to act.
In other words, the Prophet, Allah bless him and give him peace,
mayhave seen certain behavior from the women of his community. Out of
love and concern, he warned them that these behaviors would lead to
Hell rather than Paradise. This hadith is telling us how serious
ingratitude is. And it's a warning to both sexes.
The scholars frequently explain that hadiths like these can apply to
both sexes. Of course, there are ungrateful husbands. That goes
without saying. And of course many women have suffered at their
husbands' hands.
However, this hadith is addressing situations where women are in
thewrong. We have to be honest. A lot of women do take their husbands
for granted. We should be grateful that the Prophet, Allah bless him
and give him peace, warned us of the consequences of such unbecoming
behavior.
Last but not least, this hadith is not saying that any woman who
complains is going to Hell. This hadith addresses a very specific
behavior. Women certainly have the right to voice their grievances.
Isn't there an entire chapter of the Qur'an called al-Mujadilah? This
surah is the 58th chapterin the Qur'an and it is devoted to the story
of awoman who came to theProphet, Allah bless him and give him peace,
and complained about her husband.
The Prophet did not tell this woman that she wasgoing to Hell.
Instead, helistened to her, and AllahMost High revealed verses
directly addressing this woman'ssituation and condemning the husband
for his unacceptable behavior.
I pray that Allah Most High helps your friend tofind peace in this
beautiful way of life thathas enriched and inspired the lives of
countless women.
And Allah knows best.

Answer:
In the Name of Allah, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Dear Sister,
I pray this message finds you in better health and iman.
Unfortunately, black magic is very real and it sounds as if this
person may have tried to perform some type of magic against you.
Alhamdulillah, there are ways to deal with this sort of thing. The
best thing you can do is seek Allah's protection from shaitan.
Ask Allah's forgiveness for your sins. Recite the Qur'an often,
especially the powerful Refuging Verses in the last two surahs. And be
constant in your remembrance of Allah.
Please refer to Shaykh Muhammad ibn Adam al-Kawthari's article,
"Protection from Black Magic."
If this person is still harassing you, why don'tyou block her email
address? Don't let her think that she has any control over your life,
because she really doesn't. She can make allthe bad duas she wants;
only Allah Most High is in control of your affairs. Ask Allah to give
you the best of this world and the best of the hereafter and to save
you from thepunishment of the fire.
It really sounds like you're dealing with some jealousy issues here.
If that's the case, seek refuge in Allah fromthis person's envy and
move on with your life.
Don't think for a momentthat your endometriosis is related to this
person'sactions. Many women suffer from endometriosis, but
alhamdulillah, there are ways to cope with this condition and lead a
fulfilling life.
For more information on endometriosis, please visit www.endometriosis.org.
Finally, you mentioned a problem with masturbation. Since you are
married, you definitely want to look into this issue. Masturbation is
harmful, especially in a marriage, because it is the husband's duty to
satisfy his wife, and vice versa. If you feel that you are not being
sexually satisfied, then you need to discuss this with your husband in
an open, loving manner. Resortingto masturbation will onlycause you
more frustration in the long run.
Last but not least, please try to consult a local scholar for more assistance.
And Allah knows best.
