روایات شق صدر پر سرسید احمد خان کے بیانیہ کا ناقدانہ جائزہ

Muhammad Amir Farooq — 2024-12-31

The current era is one of the advancements of rational sciences, where everything is measured and weighed on the scales of Rationality, and it is considered the definitive standard for determining right and wrong. However, revelation (Wahi) holds a status above Rationality. It is not necessary for all information provided by revelation to align with rationality. In the past, influenced by the prominence of rational sciences, some individuals actively attempted to align revelation with the framework of rationality. Among these individuals, one prominent figure in the recent past was Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, who worked on this subject. One of the topics he addressed was the miracle of Shaqq-e-Sadr (purifying Prophet Muhammad's heart). To bring this miracle into the domain of rationality, Sir Syed adopted two approaches in his discourse: 1. He denied the actual occurrence of the event and attempted to prove it as a dream. 2. He questioned the authenticity of the Ahadees(About Sahqq e Sadar) that support the event as a real occurrence in a state of wakefulness. In the present age of rationalism, it is essential to preserve the Real status of revelation, so This article critically examines both claims made by Sir Syed Ahmed Khan

آثارِ صحابہ کی تشریعی حیثیت: تجزیاتی مطالعہ

Dr. Muhammad Irfan — 2024-12-31

The Companions witnessed the revelation and comprehend its explanation and meanings directly from the Prophet Muhammadﷺ. Their deeds and character were praised by Allah in the Holy Qur’an. The majority of Jurists and Muhadditheen considered their deeds and saying as the most reliable sources of interpretation and explanation of the Qur'an. In the same way through which Ummah received the Hadith, the sayings and actions also been received. Jurists agreed that deeds and sayings of companions are actually deeds and sayings of the Prophet. Hadith books contain a large collection of the sayings and actions of the Companions. The jurists clarified the authenticity and legal status of the deeds and saying of the Companions. Regarding legislative status it will first be seen whether the other Companions contradict it or not. If there is no contradiction, it will be followed. If there is, it will be seen whether those who oppose are superior in knowledge and grace or not, if they are, their opinion will be preferred, otherwise that opinion will be accepted.

معاصر نفسیاتی مسائل کے حل میں تصوف کا کردار

Dr. Sabir Ullah — 2024-12-31

Modern analytical psychology could find valuable answers in Sufism, with its profound history and proper understanding of the human soul and its suffering in the 21st century, including anxiety, depression, loneliness, and other types of dissatisfaction with social lives. Sufism encompasses the process of the exploration of truths through Dhikr (invocation of God’s name), silent meditation and friendship with the Divine and offers the way to spiritual serenity. These practices stress the purity of the spirit and the desire to free itself from earthly afflictions that help to reduce the symptoms of anxiety and depression. Sections concerning patience and gratitude complement those preached on contentment and strengthen individuals to effectively deal with life events and boost their mental health. It should also be noted that not only are there personal psychological benefits of Sufism, but there are also social and emotional aspects in the understanding of the phenomenon. The community undertones of Sufism also thus any the negative effects associated with loneliness and isolation. Social interactions through participation in Majalis and prayers create supportive social relations and help the people emotionally. Thus, this communal aspect of Sufism is useful to provide people with well-being in addition to being useful in terms of social integration because it decreases feelings of social dissatisfaction and loneliness. Furthermore, Sufi ideals of an individual’s moral and spiritual regeneration, therefore, can serve as a remedy for ethical degeneration and religious malaise in modern society. As a form of spirituality that focuses on the individual’s relationship with the creator, Sufism is an ethical perspective or way of life since it teaches people how to focus and live a moral life that will make them spiritually content. Thus, the application of spirituality, exemplified by Sufism, to solve psychological issues, supports the idea of the significance of Sufism in the contemporary world from both religious and practical points of view.

تفسیر القرآن بالقرآن میں اختلاف اور قرآنی آیات کے معانی پر اس کے اثرات: تفسیر معارف القرآن اور تفسیر الکوثر کا تقابلی مطالعہ

Saira Khalid — 2024-12-31

The Holy Qur'an is the divine revelation of Allah Almighty, sent down to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), and as a Prophet, it became His responsibility to explain and interpret the Qur'an and convey its commandments to the people. Many verses of the Qur'an are explained through the life and Hadith of the Prophet (PBUH). Similarly, there are numerous verses within the Qur'an that provide interpretation of other Qur'anic verses. The Prophet (PBUH) himself interpreted certain verses of the Qur'an through other verses, a method known as Tafseer al-Qur'an bil-Qur'an (interpretation of the Qur'an through the Qur'an), which scholars have recognized as the primary and foundational principle of Qur'anic exegesis.

However, there is a difference of opinion among scholars and exegetes regarding which verse explains the meaning of another verse. This difference is evident in the field of Qur'anic exegesis, where one commentator may define the meaning of a verse through another verse, while another commentator may offer a different interpretation based on a different verse, which the first commentator did not mention. How does this difference of opinion affect the meaning of a Qur'anic verse? What type of impact does it have? And based on the context of the Qur'anic verses, which interpretation aligns with the context (siyāq) of the verses, and which one contradicts it? This paper addresses these questions in detail, providing a comparative study of Ma'ariful Qur'an by Maulana Mufti Muhammad Shafi' and Tafseer al-Kawthar by Mohsin Ali Najafi.

The term objectives of Shariah was first used by Imam al-Harameen al-Jawaini (died 478 AH). His book on the principles of jurisprudence Al-Burhan Fi Usul al-Fiqh is an excellent book. In this book, he regularly used the term objectives of Shariah, while another famous book of his, Ghiyath alumam fi -Tiyath al-Zulam, which is known as al-Ghiyathi, has a formal argument on the objectives of Shariah. By the time of Imam Muhammad al-Ghazali, the principles of jurisprudence had taken the status of a permanent knowledge. By combining the concept of masaleh and objectives, Imam al-Ghazali declared the objectives of the Shariah as an important pillar of the principles of jurisprudence from the beginning and reasoned discussion on it. He compiled a list of objectives of Shari'ah which became known among the scholars as Kulyat-E-Khamsa. These objectives elucidate the spirit of Shariah and are thus termed the 'intentions of Shariah.' Over time, jurists have articulated these objectives in various ways. Prominent scholars like Imam Ghizali, Imam al-Shatibi, Izz ibn Abd al-Salam, Ibn Ashur, and Shah Waliullah have listed the 'five objectives' (Kulliyat Khamsah), which include the preservation of religion (Hifz al-Deen), life (Hifz al-Nafs), intellect (Hifz al-Aql), lineage (Hifz al-Nasl), wealth (Hifz al-Mal), and honor (Hifz al-Izz). Later scholars expanded this list, and we have added our scholarly opinion by including the preservation of nobility of Nature (Hifz-e-Makaarim al-Fitrat), social order (Hifz Nazm al-Muashira), and the establishment of a Caliphate based on the Prophetic model (Khilafah Ala Minhaj al-Nubuwwah).The reformation of human beings is possible only when they achieve their goals. When the necessities of life are available and there is a certainty of intellectual and spiritual security, then man determines his priorities in a free and satisfied position, and this is to provide intellectual and spiritual security and peace. It is expediency. Here we mean by expediency we mean the protection of the objectives of Sharia.

آراءُ العلماء حول اعتبارِ الحديثِ الشاذِّ حديثًا صحيحًا (دراسة بحثية)

Dr. Navid Iqbal — 2024-12-31

The authenticity of a hadith is determined by the conditions set forth by the scholars of hadith. Like other disciplines, the science of hadith also reflects differing opinions among scholars. While some scholars have considered certain conditions indispensable for accepting a hadith, others have disagreed. One of these conditions pertains to the chain of narration, specifically the requirement that a hadith must not be classified as "Shādh" (exceptional). However, the definition of "Shādh" has been a subject of extensive debate among the scholars. For instance, some scholars define a Shādh hadith as one where a trustworthy narrator contradicts other equally credible narrators. Others describe it as a hadith with a single chain of narration, regardless of whether the narrators in that chain are reliable or not. Yet another perspective holds that a Shādh hadith is one narrated solely by a trustworthy scholar without any corroborating evidence from other sources.
This divergence in defining Shādh hadith has naturally led to differing opinions regarding its classification and authenticity. Some argue that a Shādh hadith should always be considered weak, while others contend that its ruling depends on specific conditions and the context in which it was narrated.
Given the complexity of this subject, Shādh hadith is regarded as one of the intricate topics within the science of hadith. Therefore, this study aims to provide a detailed analysis of the opinions of scholars regarding the classification of Shādh hadith as weak or authentic, to shed light on this nuanced issue.

الإمام الأعظم أبو حنيفة ومكانته في علم الحديث

Ilyas — 2024-12-31

The basis of Sharia is the Quran and Hadith, and in this Quran and Hadith there are principles for the guidance and success of all humanity. The Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) called people to Allah and worked hard to guide people. The Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) also followed this path and dedicated their lives to the advancement of religion. They memorized the hadiths of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) exactly as they had heard them. Then the Thabieen also continued to serve the religion in the same way, including Imam Abu Hanifa. For the first time, He compiled the principles of jurisprudence and dedicated Himself to deducing issues. However, seeing their preoccupation with deducing issues of jurisprudence, some ignorant people said that he was not skilled in hadith, although deducing issues of jurisprudence is not possible without a collection of hadiths. In this article, the position of Imam Abu Hanifa in hadith will be explained, as well as the opinions of the scholars of hadith about him; his sayings in Jarah wa Tadeel will be explained, and those scholars who did not understand his position or spoke against him due to prejudice will be answered. The position of Imam Abu Hanifa in hadith will be explained from the books of the scholars of hadith and from the reliable books of other scholars. This article will prove that Imam Abu Hanifa was also a great hadith scholar. Like other hadith scholars, he remembered countless hadiths. He was also very skilled in Rijal, Jarah wa Tadeel, and the principles of hadith.
