12th Rabiul awwal 11AH - The Death of Prophethood ---- Our contribution to honour the Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alaihi wa sallam is almost to none. We were mocked at because our prophet died. We were mocked at because our prophet was poisoned. Yes, he was poisoned by a Jewish woman. He was a prophet who never failed to attend the invitation delivered to him even if it came from a non-Muslim. But just as he was taking a bite or two from the meat, the organ of the meat told him that the meat was poisoned. So the prophet stopped eating and signalled the companions to stop eating. Unfortunately, one of the companions had taken the first bite and died on the spot. The Jewish woman admitted that she had poisoned the meat but the Prophet forgave her. However, upon the death of the companion, capital punishment would still have to be carried out on this woman. The prophet did not die on the spot due to the poison but the effect lasted on him until his death. Narrated Umm Mubashshir (the mother of the poisoned companion): Umm Mubashshir said to the Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) during the sickness of which he died: What do you think about your illness, Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him)? I do not think about the illness of my son except the poisoned sheep of which he had eaten with you at Khaybar. The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said: And I do not think about my illness except that. This is the time when it cut off my aorta. (Sunan Abi Dawud Book #39, Hadith #4499) The disbelievers made fun of these noble words by carelessly quoting Surah Al-Haaqqah. Quran 66:44-46 وَلَوْ تَقَوَّلَ عَلَيْنَا بَعْضَ الْأَقَاوِيلِ And if Muhammad had made up about Us some [false] sayings, لَأَخَذْنَا مِنْهُ بِالْيَمِينِ We would have seized him by the right hand; ثُمَّ لَقَطَعْنَا مِنْهُ الْوَتِينَ Then We would have cut from him the aorta. After Allah revealed to him the whole Quran? After Allah is pleased Islam as religion? After dozens of verses testifying the prophethood and excellence of the prophet Muhammad? Had the prophet lied, he would have seized by Allah there and then! Guess what, he participated in wars after that. Then he carried out his pilgrimage and the religion was complete. And none of his enemies, wives and companions ever testify that the prophet ever lied in his speech even before his advent. On the day of his death, it was a day of grief fro the companions.They could not believe that the Prophet had returned to Allah. Bukhari :: Book 5 :: Volume 57 :: Hadith 19 Narrated Aisha: Allahs Apostle died while Abu Bakr was at a place called As-Sunah (Al-Aliya) Umar stood up and said, By Allah! Allahs Apostle is not dead! Umar (later on) said, By Allah! Nothing occurred to my mind except that. He said, Verily! Allah will resurrect him and he will cut the hands and legs of some men. Then Abu Bakr came and uncovered the face of Allahs Apostle, kissed him and said, Let my mother and father be sacrificed for you, (O Allahs Apostle), you are good in life and in death. By Allah in Whose Hands my life is, Allah will never make you taste death twice. Then he went out and said, O oath-taker! Dont be hasty. When Abu Bakr spoke, Umar sat down. Abu Bakr praised and glorified Allah and said, No doubt! Whoever worshipped Muhammad, then Muhammad is dead, but whoever worshipped Allah, then Allah is Alive and shall never die. Then he recited Allahs Statement.:-- (O Muhammad) Verily you will die, and they also will die. (39.30) He also recited:- وَمَا مُحَمَّدٌ إِلَّا رَسُولٌ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِهِ الرُّسُلُ ۚ أَفَإِنْ مَاتَ أَوْ قُتِلَ انْقَلَبْتُمْ عَلَىٰ أَعْقَابِكُمْ ۚ وَمَنْ يَنْقَلِبْ عَلَىٰ عَقِبَيْهِ فَلَنْ يَضُرَّ اللَّهَ شَيْئًا ۗ وَسَيَجْزِي اللَّهُ الشَّاكِرِينَ Muhammad is not but a messenger. [Other] messengers have passed on before him. So if he was to die or be killed, would you turn back on your heels [to unbelief]? And he who turns back on his heels will never harm Allah at all; but Allah will reward the grateful. Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam...
