*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -* - Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-

The invalidity of the claim that new species evolve every year

╠▓╣♥ ●◄ ►● ●◄ ►● ●◄ ►● ●◄ ►● ♥╠▓╣Celal Şengör has claimed that 40,000 species disappear every year and that 1,000 new species evolve to replacethem. But the idea that new species evolve is an invalid one.
It is true that new species are discovered every year. There may betwo
explanations of this:
Newly discovered species may be one that already exist but have never
been encounteredbefore. Indeed, the regions where such species are
discovered are arid lands, distant oceans or the sea bed, where no
research has been conducted before. These species that emerge as new
research is performed, are very probably ones that have been around for
years but that no one has come across before.
A second possibility is that these new species have just been created.
Allah's creation out of nothing takes place out of human sight, where
itcannot be seen. (Allah knows the truth.) Allah creates as a miracle.
But unless He wills otherwise, nothing of this kind happens
beforepeople's eyes, in a zoo, for instance.
Two important points need to be clarified here:
This is that if it is to be claimed that the species in question have
evolved, we should also be able to find species inthe course of
evolving, alongside these perfectlydeveloped ones. A thousand new
species a year is a large number, and the signs of this supposed
evolution should be visible. But there is not the slightest evidence of
this. All the life forms discovered arecomplete, perfect and flawless.
Second, the living things described as new species are usually
variations . Darwinists frequently engage in propaganda and describe
variations as "species." The fact is that the newly discovered life
form carries information of the frog that has been living for 200
million years. This is no new life form. No new information has been
added to the frogs we are already familiar with, and they have not
turned into a new species somehow different from the frog. This
difference is nothing more than that between a white man and a black
man.
The purple-patterned atelopus frog newly discovered in Surinam may
differ in terms of appearance and pattern,but it is simply a variation
of normal frog species. It is not a new species, as has been claimed in
Darwinist publications. In terms of its anatomical structure it is
identical to the frog below, which dates backsome 200 million years.

Hypocrites are party of satan

Satan has gained mastery over them and made them forget the remembrance
of Allah. Such people are the party of satan. No indeed! It is the party
of satan who are the losers. (Surat Al-Mujadala: 19)
When they meet those who believe, they say, 'We believe.' But then when
they are alone with their demons, they say, 'We are really with you. We
were only mocking.' (Surat Al-Baqara: 14)
HYPOCRITES ACT BY THE IMMORALITY OF SATAN, NOT OF THE COMMANDS OF ALLAH
Do you not see those who claim that they believe in what has beensent
down to you and what was sent down before you, still desiring to turn to
a satanic source for judgement in spite of being ordered to reject it?
Satanwants to misguide them far away. (Surat An-Nisa': 60)
SATAN HAS SURROUNDED THE HYPOCRITES LIKE A SHELL
If anyone withdraws himself from remembrance of (Allah) Most Gracious ,
We appoint for him a satan, to be an intimate companion to him. (Surat
Az-Zukhruf: 36)
SATAN DOES NOT OBEY ALLAH; HYPOCRITES ARE UNWILLING TO OBEY HIS
MESSENGER
When We said to the angels, 'Prostrate yourselves to Adam!' they
prostrated, except for Diabolis. He said 'What! Am I to prostrate to one
You have created out of clay?' (Surat Al-Isra': 61)
SATAN STUPIDLY IMAGINES HIMSELF TO BE VERY SUPERIOR, AND HYPOCRITES
GREATLY ADMIRE THEIR OWN LOW INTELLIGENCE
Satan imagines himself to be superior than everyone and does not approve
anyone. Hypocrites, in their own minds, do not approve the messenger of
Allah and in their own shallowminds, they criticize the decisions and
the practices of the messenger.
He (Allah) said, 'Iblis, what prevented you prostrating to what I
created with My own Hands? Were you overcome by arrogance or are you one
of the exalted?' (Diabolis) said: 'I am better than him. You created me
from firebut You created him from clay.' (Surah Sâd: 75-76)
They say, 'Why was this Qur'an not sent down to one of the great men of
the two cities?' (Surat Az-Zukhruf: 31)
They say, 'What is the matter with this Messenger, that he eats food and
walks in the market-place? Why has an angel not been sent down to him so
that it can be a warner along with him? (Surat Al-Furqan: 7)
SATAN ACTS AS IF HE WANTS THE BEST FOR MANKIND; HYPOCRITES CLAIM TO WANT
THE BEST FOR BELIEVERS
Then satan whispered tothem, disclosing to them their private parts that
had been concealed from them. He said, 'YourLord has only forbidden you
this tree lest you become angels or among those who live for ever. ' He
swore to them, 'I am one of those who give you good advice.' (Surat
Al-A'raf: 20-21)
When they are told, 'Do not cause corruption on the earth,' THEY SAY,
'WE ARE ONLY PUTTING THINGSRIGHT.' No indeed! They are the corrupters,
but they are not aware of it. (Surat Al-Baqara: 11-12)
AND THOSE WHO BUILT A MOSQUE TO CAUSE HARM AND FOR UNBELIEF AND TOCAUSE
DISUNION AMONG THE BELIEVERS AND IN PREPARATION FOR ONE WHO WARRED
AGAINST ALLAH AND HIS MESSENGER BEFORE; THEY WILL INDEED SWEAR THAT
THEIR INTENTION IS NOTHING BUT GOOD ; But Allah bears witness that they
are truly liars. (SuratAt-Tawba: 107)
SATAN MAKES EMPTY PROMISES TO MAN; HYPOCRITES TELL BELIEVERS THAT "IT IS
WE WHO ARE ON THE TRUE PATH, COME TO US, JOIN US, SO YOU CAN RELAX"
And when the satan made their works fair seeming to them, and said: No
one can overcome you this day, and surely I am your protector: but when
the two parties came in sight of each other he turned upon his heels,
and said: Surely I am clear of you, surely I see what you do not see,
surely I fear Allah; and Allah is severe in requiting (evil). (Surat
Al-Anfal: 48)
(Satan) He makes promises to them and fills them with false hopes. But
what satan promises them is nothing but delusion. (Surat An-Nisa: 120)
You who believe! do not be like those who are unbelievers and say of
their brothers, when they are going on journeys or military expeditions,
'If they had only been with us, they would not have died or been killed,
' so that Allah can make that anguish for them in their hearts. It is
Allah Who gives life and causes to die. Allah sees what you do. (Surah
Al' Imran: 156)
Say: 'Are we to call on something besides Allah which can neither help
nor harm us, and to turn on our heels after Allah has guided us, like
someone the demons have lured away in the earth, leaving him confused
and stupefied, despite the fact that he has companions calling him to
guidance, saying, "Come with us!"?' Say: 'Allah's guidance, that is true
guidance. We are commanded to submit asMuslims to the Lord of allthe
worlds, (Surat Al-An'am: 71)
SATAN CLAIMS TO BE ONE OF THOSE WHO GIVES ADVICE, WHILE
HYPOCRITESIMAGINE THEY CAN INSTRUCT BELIEVERS BY DISTORTING HADITHS AND
VERSES
Then satan whispered tothem, disclosing to them their private parts that
had been concealed from them. He said, 'YourLord has only forbidden you
this tree lest you become angels or among those who live for ever.' He
swore to them, 'I am one of those who give you good advice.' (Surat
Al-A'raf: 20-21)
SATAN TRIES TO APPROACH PEOPLE FROM ALL SIDES, AND HYPOCTITES TRY TO
LEAD BELIEVERS INTO CORRUPTION FROM ALL DIRECTIONS
He said, 'By Your misguidance of me, I willlie in ambush for them on
your straight path. Then I will come at them,from in front of them and
behind them, from their right and from their left. You will not find
most of them thankful.' (Surat Al-A'raf: 16-17)
SATAN WORKS BY FRIGHTENING PEOPLE, WHILE HYPOCRITES ALSO ATTEMPT TO
SPREAD FEAR AMONG BELIEVERS
It was only satan frightening you throughhis friends. But do not fear
them – fear Me if you are believers. (SurahAl 'Imran :175)
[Believers are] those to whom people said, "The people have gathered
against you, so fear them." But that merely increased their belief and
they said, "Allah is enough for us and the Best of Guardians." (Surah Al
'Imran: 173)
SATAN HAS RENOUNCED OBEDIENCE AND IS DISRESPECTFUL AND UNGRATEFUL;
HYPOCRITES POSSESS ALL THESE SAME ATROCIOUS CHARACTERISTICS
Squanderers are brothers to the demons, and satan was ungrateful to his
Lord. (Surat Al-Isra': 27)
SATAN IS UNRESTRAINED AND SLIPPERY; HYPOCRITES ARE ALSO TRECHEROUS AND
SLIPPERY
Among people there is one who argues about Allah without knowledge, and
follows every corrupt, rebellious,and mischievous satan. (Surat Al-Hajj:
3)
SATAN SEEKS TO SET PEOPLE AGAINST ONE ANOTHER; HYPOCRITES ALSO TRY TO
IMPAIR THE BROTHERHOOD AMONG BELIEVERS AND SET THEM AGAINST ONE ANOTHER
Say to My servants that they should only say the best. Satan wants to
stir up trouble between them. Satan is an outright enemy to man. (Surat
Al-Isra':53)
Satan wants to stir up enmity and hatred between you by means of wine
and gambling, and to debar you from remembrance of Allah and from salat.
Will you not then give them up? (Surat Al-Ma'ida: 91)
SATAN DELUDES PEOPLE ABOUT ALLAH; HYPOCRITES ALSO ESTABLISH A CLIMATE OF
CORRUPTION BY THE USE OF ALLAH'S NAME, VERSES AND HADITHS
Mankind! Allah's promiseis true. Do not let the lifeof the world delude
you and do not let the deluder delude you about Allah (By the use of
Allah's name). Satan is your enemy so treat him as an enemy. He summons
his party so they will be among the people of the Searing Blaze. (Surah
Fatir: 5-6)
SATAN WANTS MUSLIMS TO BE WORN DOWN AND DEFEATED AND TO MAKE THEM SLIP;
HYPOCRITES ALSO HOPE AND WAIT FOR THE MUSLIMS TO SUFFER LOSSES
Those of you who turned their backs on the day the two armies clashed –
it was satan who made them slip for what they had done. ButAllah has
pardoned them. Allah is Ever-Forgiving, All-Forbearing. (Surat
Al-Imran':155)
They(hyprocrites) will call out to them, 'Were we not with you?'They
will reply, 'Indeed you were. But you made trouble for yourselves and
hung back and and doubted and false hopes deluded you until Allah's
command arrived.The Deluder deluded you about Allah. (Surat Al-Hadid:
14)
SATAN TRIES TO INSTILL DOUBTS IN PEOPLE; HYPOCRITES ALSO SPEAK IN WAYS
THAT STIR UP DOUBTS AND CONDUCE PEOPLE WHO ARE WEAK IN FAITH
I will lead them astray and fill them with false hopes. I will command
them and they will cut off cattle's ears. I will command them and
theywill change Allah's creation.' Anyone who takes satan as his
protector in place of Allah has clearly lost everything. He makes
promises to them and fills them with false hopes. But what satan
promises them is nothing but delusion. (Surat An-Nisa:119-120)
The hypocrites and people with sickness in their hearts said, 'What
Allah and His Messenger promised us was mere delusion.' (Surat Al-Ahzab:
12)
SATAN SHOWS DEVIANT PRACTICES AS ALLURING AND ENTICING; HYPOCRITES ALSO
WANTS AN ATROCIOUS LIFE THAT REFUSES TO RECOGNIZE THE BOUNDS SET BY
ALLAH
.. Satan has made their actions seem good to them and debarred themfrom
the Way so they arenot guided. (Surat An-Naml: 24)
If only they had humbledthemselves when Our violent force came upon
them! However, their hearts were hard and satan made what they were
doing seem attractive to them. (SuratAl-A'nam: 43)
Satan promises you poverty and commands you to avarice. Allah promises
you forgiveness from Him and abundance. Allah is All-Encompassing,
All-Knowing. (Surat Al-Baqara:268)
People who love to see filth being spread about concerning those who
have faith will have a painful punishment bothin this world and the
Hereafter. Allah knows and you do not know. (Surat An-Nur: 19)
SATAN CALLS ON PEOPLE TO WORSHIP FOR SHOW; HYPOCRITES ALSO PERFORM
PRAYERS FOR SHOW AND GIVE IN SMALL AMOUNTS ONLY FOR SHOW
And also for those who spend their wealth to show off to people, not
having faith in Allah and the Last Day. Anyone who has made satan his
comrade, what an evil comrade he is! (Surat An-Nisa': 38)
Nothing prevents what they give from being accepted from them but the
fact that they have rejected Allah and His Messenger, and that theyonly
come to prayers lethargically, and that they only give reluctantly.
(Surat At-Tawba: 54)
SATAN TRIES TO DISTANCE PEOPLE FROM ALLAH'S VERSES; AND HYPOCRITES DO
NOT WANTALLAH TO BE REMEMBERED
If anyone withdraws himself from remembrance of (Allah) Most Gracious,
We appoint for him a satan, to be an intimate companion to him . (Surat
Az-Zukhruf: 36)
The hypocrites think they deceive Allah, but He is deceiving them. When
they get up to pray, they get up lazily, showing off to people, and only
remembering Allah a very little. (Surat An-Nisa': 142)
When Allah is mentionedon His own, the hearts ofthose who do not believe
in the Hereafter shrink back shuddering, but when others apart from Him
are mentioned, they jump for joy. (Surat Az-Zumar: 45)
SATAN INDOCTRINATES EMOTIONALITY IN PEOPLE; HYPOCRITES ALSO ACT
ACCORDING TO TWISTED EMOTIONS, AND NOT ACCORDING TO ALLAH'S COMMANDS,
REASON AND GOOD CONSCIENCE
O you who believe! Do not take My enemy and your enemy for friends:
would you offer them love while they deny what has come to you ofthe
truth, driving out theMessenger and yourselves because you believe in
Allah, your Lord? If you go forth struggling hard in My path and seeking
My pleasure, would you manifest love to them? And I know what you
conceal and what you manifest; and whoever of you does this, he indeed
has gone astray from the straight path. (Surat Al-Mumtahana: 1)
SATAN INSPIRES A FEAROF POVERTY; HYPOCRITES ARE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT
POSSESSIONS AND ARE VERY PARSIMONIOUS. THEY ARE UNWILLING TO SPEND ON
ALLAH'S PATH
Satan promises you poverty and commands you to avarice. Allah promises
you forgiveness from Him and abundance. Allah is All-Encompassing,
All-Knowing. (Surat Al-Baqara: 268)
SATAN DISTRACTS WITH MINOR DETAILS; HYPOCRITS ARE ALSO EXPERTS AT
CREATING STRIFE BY OBSESSION OVER DETAIL
And when Musa said to his people, 'Allah commands you to sacrifice a
cow,' they said, 'What! Are you making a mockery of us?' He said, 'I
seek refuge with Allah from being one of the ignorant!' They said,
'Askyour Lord to make it clear to us what it should be like.' He said,
'He says it should be a cow, not old or virgin, but somewhere between
the two. So do as you have been told.' They said, 'Ask your Lord to make
it clear to us what colour it should be.' He said, 'He says it should be
a red cow, thecolour of sorrel, a pleasure to all who look.' They said,
'Ask your Lord to make it clear to us what it should be like. Cows are
all much the same to us. Then, if Allah wills, we will be guided.' He
said, 'He says it should be a cow not trained to plough or irrigate the
fields – completely sound, without a blemish on it.' They said, 'Now you
have brought the truth'… (Surat Al-Baqara: 67-71)
In these verses, it has been revealed that somepeople from the community
of the Prophet Moses (pbuh) have got into too many details and thus
became almost unable to perform the religious service Allah commanded
them. In thefollowing part of the verse Allah reveals this truth as
follows:
.. So they sacrificed it – but they almost did not do it. (Surat
Al-Baqara: 71)
SATAN TOTALLY SUBVERTS THE TRUTH; HYPOCRITES ALSO PORTRAYRIGHT AS WRONG,
AND WRONG AS RIGHT
Shall I tell you upon whom the demons descend? They descend on every
evil liar. They give them a hearing andmost of them are liars. (Surat
Ash-Shu'ara': 221-223)
SATAN WANTS PEOPLE TO FOLLOW THE SUPERSTITIOUS FAITHS OF THEIR
ANCESTORS, NOT THE TRUE FAITH; HYPOCRITES ALSO ESPOUSEA SUPERSTITIOUS
CONCEPTION OF RELIGION, ONE FULL OF SUBSEQUENT ADDITIONS
When they are told: 'Follow what Allah has sent down,' they say, 'No, we
will follow what we found our fathers doing.' What! Even if satan is
calling them to the punishment of the Blazing Fire? (Surah Luqman: 21)
SATAN BELIEVES HE HAS BEEN TREATED UNJUSTLY; HYPOCRITES ALSO LIE IN
SAYING THE MESSENGERS HAVE NOT TREATED THEM FAIRLY
Is there a sickness in their hearts or do they have misgivings or do
they fear that Allah and His Messenger will be unjust to them? No, it is
simply that they are wrongdoers. (Surat An-Nur: 50)
SATAN CLAIMS TO BE ON THE TRUE PATH; HYOCRITES ALSO MAINTAINTHAT THEY
KNOW WHAT ISBEST
If someone shuts his eyes to the remembrance of the All-Merciful, We
assign him a satan who becomes his bosom friend they debar them from the
path, yet they still think they are guided. (Surat Az-Zukhruf: 36-37)
One group He guided; but another group got the misguidance they
deserved. They took the demons as friends instead of Allah and thought
that they were guided. (Surat An-A'raf: 30)
SATAN IS SLY AND A LIAR; HYPOCRITES ALSO LIE ALL THE TIME
When the affair is decided satan will say, 'Allah made you a promise, a
promise of truth, and I made you a promise but broke my promise. (Surah
Ibrahim:22)
SATAN DOES NOT WANT PEOPLE TO GIVE THANKS; HYPOCRITES ARE ALSO SPOILT
AND UNGRATEFUL IN THE FACE OF THE BLESSINGS BESTOWED ON THEM BY ALLAH
THROUGH HIS MESSENGERS
He (satan) said, 'By Your misguidance of me, I willlie in ambush for
them on your straight path. Then I will come at them,from in front of
them and behind them, from their right and from their left. You will not
find most of them thankful.' (Surat Al-A'raf: 16-17)
ALTHOUGH SATAN ENCOURAGES DENIAL, HE SAYS HE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH
DENIERS; HYPOCRITES ALSO IN FACT HATE THE PEOPLE THEY ADOPT AS FRIENDS
They are like satan whenhe says to a human being, 'Be unbeliever,' and
then when he becomes unbeliever, says, 'I wash my hands ofyou. Truly I
fear Allah, the Lord of all the worlds.' (Surat Al-Hashr: 16)
They will not fight against you all together as a group except in
fortified towns or behind high walls. Their hostility towards each other
is intense.They arefull of bravado in each other's company. You consider
them united but their hearts are scattered wide. That is because they
are people who do not use their intellect. (Surat Al-Hashr: 14)
SATAN SAYS HE BELIEVES IN ALLAH; HYPOCRITES, WHEN THEY APPROACH THE
PROPHET, ALSO SAY THEY RECOGNIZE HIM AS A MESSENGER
They are like satan whenhe says to a human being, 'Be unbeliever,' and
then when he becomes unbeliever, says, 'I wash my hands ofyou. Truly I
fear Allah, the Lord of all the worlds. ' (Surat Al-Hashr: 16)
When the affair is decided satan will say, 'Allah made you a promise, a
promise of truth, and I made you a promise but broke my promise. I had
no authority over you, except that I called you and you responded to me.
Do not, therefore, blame me but blame yourselves. I cannot come to your
aid nor you to mine. I reject the way you associated me with Allah
before.' The wrongdoers will have a painful punishment. (Surah Ibrahim;
22)
When the hypocrites come to you they say, 'We bear witness that you are
indeed the Messenger of Allah.' Allahknows that you are indeed His
Messenger and Allah bears witness that the hypocrites are certainly
liars. (Surat Al-Munafiqun: 1)

Allaah is above His creation and He is in front of the one who prays.

I read a hadeeth which says that Allaah is in front of the worshipper.
What does that mean? Does it contradict the fact that Allaah is above
the heavens?.
Praise be to Allaah.
We have already mentioned in questions no. 992 and 11035 the evidence
that Allaah has risen above His Throne and is exalted above His
creation.
According to the hadeeth narrated by al-Bukhaari (406) and Muslim (547)
from 'Abd-Allaah ibn 'Umar, the Messenger of Allaah (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him) sawsome spittle on the wall of the
mosque in the direction of the qiblah, so he scratched it off then
turned to the people and said: "If any one of you is praying, lethim
not spit in front of him, for Allaah is in frontof him when he prays."
There is no contradictionbetween this is the fact that Allaah is high
aboveHis creation.
Shaykh al-Islam [Ibn Taymiyah] said in Majmoo' al-Fataawa, 5/101:
The words of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him),
"When any one of you stands to pray, Allaah is in front of him so let
him not spit infront of him," mean what they appear to mean. Allaah is
above the Throne and He is in front of the worshipper. This description
may even apply to created things: when a man looks at the sky and the
sun and the moon, the sky, sun and moon are above him and they are also
in front of him.
He also said (5/672):
It is well known that whoever turns to face the moon and addresses it –
if he were able to address it – is turning to face it even though it is
above him … Similarly when a person stands to pray he is turning to face
his Lord even though He is above him, and he addresses Him onthe basis
of Him being infront of him not to his right or left, and he calls upon
Him on the basis that He is above not below.
Shaykh Ibn 'Uthaymeen said:
The evidence that Allaah is in front of the worshipper is:
The words of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him):
"When any one of you stands to pray, Allaah is in front of him so let
him not spit infront of him."
This being in front is ascribed to Allaah in a manner that befits Him
and does not contradict His exalted state. The two may be reconciled in
two ways:
1 – It is possible to reconcile between them with regard to created
things, such as when thesun is rising, it is in frontof the one who
faces theeast, even though it is in the sky. So if they may be
reconciled with regard to a created thing then it is more apt that they
be reconciled with regard to the Creator.
2 – Even if it were not possible to reconcile them with regard to
created things, that doesnot mean that they cannot be reconciled with
regard to the Creator, because there is nothing like unto Allaah.
Fataawa Ibn 'Uthaymeen, 4/287.

Meaning of the hadeeth which says that Allaah created Adam in His Image .

I am asking about the correct understanding ofthe hadeeth, "Adam was
created in the Image of the Most Merciful"?.
Praise be to Allaah.
It was narrated from AbuHurayrah that the Prophet (peace and blessings
of Allaah be upon him) said: "Allaah created Adam in His Image…"
Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 6227; Muslim, 2841.
With regard to the hadeeth, "Do not (insult one another) and say 'May
Allaah make your face ugly', because Adamwas created in the Image of the
Most Merciful," this was classed as da'eef (weak) by al-Albaani in
al-Silsilah al-Da'eefah, no. 1176.
Perhaps the questioner is confused by this hadeeth because of the verse
in which Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
"There is nothing like Him"
[al-Shoora 42:11]
The scholars answered this problem in two ways: a brief answer anda
detailed answer.
The brief answer is that it is impossible for this hadeeth to contradict
the words of Allaah (interpretation of the meaning):
"There is nothing like Him"
[al-Shoora 42:11]
If we find a way to reconcile between them,all well and good, otherwise
we should say,
" 'We believe in it; the whole of it (clear and unclear Verses) are from our Lord.' And none receive admonition except men of understanding"
[Aal 'Imraan 3:7 – interpretation of the meaning]
We believe that there is nothing like unto Allaah and thus we will be on
the safe side before Allaah. These are the words of Allaah, and these
are the words of His Messenger; both are true and it is impossible for
one of them to belie the other. So we say thatthe verse shows that His
creation cannot resemble Allaah, and the hadeeth affirms that Allaah has
an Image. Both are true and we believe in them; we say that both are
from our Lord, and remain silent thereafter. This is all thatwe can do.
See Sharh al-Waasitiyyahby Ibn 'Uthaymeen.
With regard to the detailed answer:
This hadeeth proves thatAllaah has an Image, andthat Allaah created
Adamin His Image.
But there is nothing in this hadeeth to indicate that the image of Adam
(peace be upon him) resembles the Image of Allaah, rather this meaning
is absolutely false and was not meant by the Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allaah be upon him), because Allaah says (interpretation of
the meaning):
"There is nothing like Him"
[al-Shoora 42:11]
The fact that one thing islikened to another does not mean that it is
identical to it in all aspects, rather they are likened to one another
because they share someattributes, but that does not means that every
attribute is identical.
This is indicated by the words of the Prophet (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him): "The first group to be admitted to Paradise willbe
in the image of the moon on the night whenit is full." Narrated by
al-Bukhaari, 3327; Muslim, 2834.
This hadeeth does not mean that they will enter Paradise in a form that
is exactly like the moon in all regards, otherwise that would mean that
they will enter Paradise with no eyes or mouths, or as rocks.
Rather what the hadeethmeans is that they will be like the moon in
beauty and brightness, with shining faces, and so on.
So if you say: what is theImage that belongs to Allaah and in which Adam
was created? We say that Allaah has a Faceand Eyes and Hands and Feet,
but that does not mean that because of these things He resembles man.
There may be some similarity but that does not mean that these things
are identical, just as the first group of the people of Paradise to
enter Paradise are likened to the moon, but that does not mean that they
resemble the moon. This confirms the belief of Ahlal-Sunnah
wa'l-Jamaa'ah, that none of the attributes ofAllaah can be likened to
the attributes of created beings, and they do not misinterpret the
Divine attributes or deny them, and they do not liken them to the
attributes ofhuman beings.
