purity of Amina, the mother of the Messenger

 The Crusader Suspicion:

It was mentioned in a historical book called The Great Classes by Ibn Saad in the first volume the following:
It was mentioned that Abdullah bin Abdul Muttalib married Amina bint Wahb, the mother of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace: He said: Muhammad bin Omar bin Waqid Al-Aslami told us, he said: Abdullah bin Jaafar Al-Zuhri told me on the authority of his aunt Umm Bakr bint Al-Miswar bin Makhrama on the authority of her father, he said: And Omar bin Muhammad bin Omar bin Ali bin Abi Talib told me on the authority of Yahya bin Shibl on the authority of Abu Jaafar Muhammad bin Ali bin Al-Hussein, they said: Amina bint Wahb bin Abd Manaf bin Zuhra bin Kilab was in the care of her uncle Wahib bin Abd Manaf bin Zuhra, so he walked To him, Abdul Muttalib bin Hashim bin Abdul Manaf bin Qusayy, with his son Abdullah bin Abdul Muttalib, the father of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, proposed to him Amina bint Wahb, so Abdullah bin Abdul Muttalib married her. Abdul Muttalib bin Hashim proposed to him in that session his daughter Hala bint Wahib for himself, so he married her to him. So, Abdul Muttalib bin Hashim and Abdullah bin Abdul Muttalib married in the same session, and Hala bint Wahib bore Hamza bin Abdul Muttalib for Abdul Muttalib, so Hamza was the uncle of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace.
Contradiction of the same book, Part Three, Chapter on the Badris, Classes of the Badris among the Muhajireen.
Muhammad bin Omar told us, he said: Musa bin Muhammad bin Ibrahim told me, on the authority of his father, he said: Hamza was taught on the day of Badr by an ostrich feather. Muhammad bin Omar said: Hamza carried the banner of the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) in the Battle of Banu Qaynuqa', and there were no banners at that time. He was killed, may Allah have mercy on him, on the day of Uhud, thirty-two months after the Hijra, and he was fifty-nine years old at that time. He was four years older than the Messenger of Allah (PBUH). The Christian here likens him to this contradiction, saying that this proves that the mother of the Messenger gave birth to the Prophet (PBUH) from another man other than Abdullah bin Abdul Muttalib, four years after her marriage.

The response:
First: The Prophet (PBUH) said: (She was born from wedlock, not from fornication) Sahih Al-Bukhari.
Second: This is a history book, and we do not take our religion from history books, but from the Quran and the authentic Sunnah.
Third: The two narrations were said by Muhammad bin Omar bin Waqid Al-Waqidi Al-Aslami,
so who is this man? Certainly the common Christians do not know him because they are, as they say in the Egyptian dialect, “ghalaba.” As for their priests who have made a profession of lying to God and distorting facts, they know him. Therefore, here is a definition of this man and the sayings of the scholars of Islam before the parrots of the Christians were born:
Muhammad bin Omar bin Waqid al-Waqidi al-Aslami Abu Abdullah al-Madani, the judge of Baghdad, the client of Abdullah bin Buraidah al-Aslami.
Al-Bukhari said: Al-Waqidi is from Medina, he lived in Baghdad, his hadith is abandoned. Ahmad, Ibn Numayr, Ibn al-Mubarak, and Ismail bin Zakariya abandoned it (Tahdhib al-Kamal, Volume 26).
This is on p. 185-186 and on the same page Ahmad said he is a liar and Yahya said he is weak and in another place he is nothing and Abu Dawud said: I was told by someone who heard from Ali bin al-Madini saying al-Waqidi narrated thirty thousand strange hadiths and Abu Bakr bin Khaithama said I heard Yahya bin Ma’in say al-Waqidi’s hadith is not to be written it is nothing and Abd al-Rahman bin Abi Hatim said I asked Ali bin al-Madini about him and he said: His hadith is abandoned here also a beautiful defect in the chain of transmission of the hadith which is his narration from Abdullah bin Ja’far al-Zuhri Ishaq bin Mansur said Ahmad bin Hanbal al-Waqidi used to turn the hadiths upside down and throw the hadith of his nephew al-Zuhri on Muammar Ishaq bin Rahawayh said as he described and more severe because in my opinion he is one of those who fabricate hadith al-Jarh wa al-Ta’dil 8/Biography 92 and Ali bin al-Madini said I heard Ahmad bin Hanbal say al-Waqidi fabricates chains of transmission Tarikh Baghdad 3/13-16 and Imam Muslim said his hadith is abandoned and al-Nasa’i said he is not trustworthy and al-Hakim said his hadith is fabricated Al-Dhahabi may Allah have mercy on him agreed upon abandoning him and this was mentioned in Mughni al-Du’afa 2/Biography 5861

he said Al-Nisa’i in “The Weak and Abandoned” the four known for lying about the Messenger of Allah: Al-Waqidi in Medina, Muqatil in Khurasan, and Muhammad bin Saeed in Ash-Sham
. Therefore, my dear brothers and seekers of the truth from among the Christians, both narrations are weak because the narrator is abandoned in hadith.
However, there are other ways that confirm the second narration that Hamza was older than the Messenger by two or four years, and it is correct, and that the marriage of the Prophet’s grandfather was many years before his son Abdullah, the Messenger’s father, even if Hamza was born two or four years before the Messenger’s birth. The evidence is [He was older than the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, by four years, and this is not correct in my opinion because the established hadith is that Thuwaybah breastfed Hamza and Abdullah bin Asad with the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, unless she breastfed them at two times.
Al-Baka’i mentioned on the authority of Ibn Ishaq that he said Hamza was older than the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, by two years], the book of Al-Isti’ab fi Tamyeez Al-Ashab.
It is also known that foster brothers do not mean or require at the same time, but a woman may breastfeed a child and after 20 years breastfeed another child, so they are foster brothers, and the difference between them is 20 years.
Now we ask Christians for a response that proves the innocence of Christ’s lineage from adultery, and we also want evidence from the Bible about the lineage of the Virgin Mary, who is the father of the Virgin Mary and with evidence

Another response:
There are two important events that distinguish that history proves that Hamzah is older than the Prophet and that Hamzah was born before the marriage of Abdullah.

1- The vow occurred when Abdul Muttalib’s sons were ten, including Hamzah,
meaning that Abdul Muttalib vowed to slaughter one of his sons if God gave him ten sons,
so God gave him ten sons, and among them was Hamzah bin Abdul Muttalib. This is the evidence

. *** He said: Muhammad bin Omar bin Waqid Al-Aslami told us: Muhammad bin Abdullah told us, on the authority of Al-Zuhri, on the authority of Qubaysah bin Dhu’ayb, on the authority of Ibn Abbas. Al-Waqidi said: Abu Bakr bin Abi Sabrah told us, on the authority of Shaiba bin Nasah, on the authority of Al-A’raj, on the authority of Muhammad bin Rabi’ah bin Al-Harith and others. They said: When Abdul Muttalib saw the small number of his helpers in digging Zamzam, and he was digging alone, and his son Al-Harith was his firstborn, he vowed that if God granted him ten male children until he saw them, he would slaughter one of them. So when they were ten, they were Al-Harith, Al-Zubayr, Abu Talib, Abdullah, Hamzah, Abu Lahab, Al-Ghaydaq, Al-Muqawwam, Dirar, and Al-Abbas. He gathered them and then told them about his vow and called them to fulfill it for God. So what… One of them disagreed with him and said: Fulfill your vow and do whatever you want .

*** When the well of Zamzam appeared, the Quraysh disputed with Abdul Muttalib and said to him: Make us partners. He said: I will not do this, this is a matter that you have been singled out for, so they did not leave him until they went out with him for trial to the soothsayer of Bani Saad Hudhaym, who was in the highlands of Syria. When they were on the road and the water ran out, God gave Abdul Muttalib a fragrant rain, so they knew that Abdul Muttalib had been singled out for Zamzam and they returned, and then Abdul Muttalib vowed that if God gave him ten sons, and they reached the age of preventing him, he would slaughter one of them at the Kaaba. Abdul
Muttalib had ten sons, and they were: Al-Harith, Al-Zubayr, Abu Talib, Abdullah, Hamza, Abu Lahab, and Al-Ghaydaq. And Al-Muqawwam, and Dhirar, and Al-Abbas. It was said: They were eleven, then they added a son named: Qutham. It was said: They were thirteen, then they added: Abd Al-Kaaba and Hajl. Abd Al-Kaaba is Al-Muqawwam, and Hajl is Al-Ghaydaq, and there was no man among his sons named Qutham. As for the daughters, they were six, and they are: Umm Al-Hakim - who is Al-Bayda - and Barra, and Atikah, and Safiyya, and Arwa, and Umaimah.

2- Abdul Muttalib left with his son Abdullah to marry him, and the event of the vow had been completed, and the evidence is the statement of the woman who wanted him to
marry Abdul Muttalib’s son Abdullah to Amina bint Wahb al-Zahriyya.
Ibn Ishaq said: Then Abdul Muttalib left, taking his son Abdullah by the hand, and they claim that he passed by a woman from Banu Asad bin Abdul Uzza bin Qusayy, and she was Umm Qanal, the sister of Waraqa bin Nawfal bin Asad bin Abdul Uzza bin Qusayy, and she was near the Kaaba. She looked at his face and said: Where are you going, Abdullah? He said: With my father. She said: You have the same as the camels that were slaughtered for you, come to me now.
He said: I am with my father, and I cannot oppose him or leave him. Abdul Muttalib went out with him until he came to Wahb bin Abdul Manaf bin Zuhra bin Kilab bin Murrah bin Kaab bin Luay bin Ghalib bin Fihr, and he was at that time the leader of Banu Zuhra in age and honor, so he married him to his daughter Amina bint Wahb, and she was at that time the leader of the women of her people. They claimed that he entered upon her when he took her place, and he had intercourse with her and she became pregnant with the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace

Abdullah marries Amina bint Wahb .
Abdul Muttalib took him out until he came to Wahb bin Abdul Manaf bin Zuhra bin Kilab bin Murrah bin Kaab bin Luay bin Ghalib bin Fihr, who was at that time the master of Banu Zuhra in lineage and honor. He married him to his daughter Amina bint Wahb, who was at that time the best woman in Quraysh in lineage and position.

Then Abdul Muttalib turned away with his son and passed by a woman from Banu Asad called Umm Qatal bint Nawfal bin Asad bin Abdul Uzza, who was the sister of Waraqah.
She said: O Abdullah, where are you going?
He said: With my father. She said: I have with me the same as the camels that were slaughtered for you. Come to me
. He said: I am with my father, I cannot leave him. So
Abdul Muttalib went out with him until he came to Wahb bin Abdul Manaf bin Zuhra, who was at that time the chief of Banu Zuhra by lineage. He married him to Amina, who was at that time the best woman in Quraysh by lineage.

: Part Two Chapter Between the Birth of Our Prophet Muhammad and Adam, peace be upon them -----
... Abdullah married Amina bint Wahb some time after the birth of Hamza, as evidenced by the woman’s saying, “You will have the same as the camels that were slaughtered for you,” which proves the innocence and purity of Amina bint Wahb and confirms that the suspicion has ended, and not only ended, but ended forever.

 I say to the Christians, O you, would you not have looked for a pure lineage for your Lord Jesus other than this wicked lineage filled with fornicators and sinners, instead of trying to attack the lineage of the most honorable of messengers and the Seal of the Prophets and God’s mercy to the worlds, our master Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace?
I remind you of the words of Christ, peace be upon him, in what the Gospels attribute to him
(Al-Fandik) (Matthew’s Gospel) (Mt-7-1) “ Judge not, lest you be judged .”
(Al-Fandik) (Matthew’s Gospel) (Mt-7-2) “ For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with what measure you measure, it will be measured to you .” (Al-
Fandik) (Matthew’s Gospel) (Mt-7-3) “ And why do you look at the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but the log that is in your own eye, do not look at it.”
(Al-Fandik) (Matthew's Gospel) (Mt-7-4) ( Or how can you say to your brother, 'Let me pull the speck out of your eye,' and see, there is a log in your own eye ? )
(Al-Fandik) (Matthew's Gospel) (Mt-7-5) ( You hypocrite, first pull the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to pull the speck out of your brother's eye .) It
is known to those with minds and understanding
that the lineage of the prophets among us is infallible from evil,
and no one can criticize it except a spiteful, oppressive, and unjust person whose
eyes are closed by clouds,
whose heart is filled with poisons,
and whose mind is lost, for he is deprived of understanding.

We have proof of the purity of the lineage of the noble prophets,
the loyal leaders, the pure lights of the universe, and the loyal lamps of darkness,
which is established by dazzling evidence from the Book of the Lord of the Earth and Heaven and
from the Sunnah of His Messenger, the master of the pious, the teacher of scholars, and the most honorable of the honorable.

From the Book of Allah, the
Most High, the Most Great: ( Indeed, Allah chose Adam and Noah and the family of Abraham and the family of Imran over the worlds )
( Descendants, some of them from others, and Allah is Hearing and Knowing )
(Al Imran) (33-34).
These are the ones whom Allah, the Most High, the Most Majestic, chose in lineage, intellect, knowledge and action:
( Say: Praise be to Allah, and peace be upon His servants whom He has chosen. Is Allah better or what they associate with Him? )
(An-Naml) (59).
And from the Sunnah of the Prophet,
when Heraclius, the Emperor of the Romans, asked Abu Sufyan, may Allah be pleased with him, about the lineage of our Prophet Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, he said: How is his lineage among you?
Abu Sufyan said: He is of good lineage among us.
Heraclius said: And so are messengers sent according to the lineage of their people. Yes
, messengers are sent according to the lineage of their people, and no people of a prophet find in his lineage anything that would cast doubt on his prophethood.
And when the Negus asked the companions of our Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, about him,

The one who spoke to him was Ja`far ibn Abi Talib, who said to him: O king, we were a people of ignorance, we worshipped idols, ate dead animals, committed indecencies, severed kinship ties, and treated our neighbors badly. The strong among us used to devour the weak. We remained like that until Allah sent to us a messenger from among us whose lineage , truthfulness , trustworthiness , and chastity we knew. So he called us . To Allah, that we may worship Him alone and abandon what we and our fathers used to worship besides Him, such as stones and idols. He has commanded us to speak the truth, to fulfill our trusts, to maintain family ties, to be good neighbors, to refrain from forbidden things and from shedding blood. He has forbidden us from immoralities, false speech , consuming the wealth of orphans , and slandering chaste women . He has commanded us to worship Allah. Alone, we do not associate anything with Him, and He has commanded us to pray, give zakat, and fast. He said: So he enumerated the matters of Islam to him, so we believed him and had faith in him and followed him in what he brought. So we worshipped Allah alone, so we did not associate anything with Him, and we forbade what He forbade us and permitted what He permitted us. Then our people transgressed against us, so they tortured us and tempted us away from our religion in order to return us to the worship of Idols from the worship of Allah and that we consider permissible what we used to consider permissible of the evils. But when they subdued us and wronged us and made things difficult for us and came between us and our religion, we went out to your country and chose you over all others and desired your protection and hoped that we would not be wronged in your presence, O King.
Musnad Ahmad
If everyone testified to his purity of lineage and high status and authenticity of his lineage,
may God bless him and grant him peace , even Suhayl ibn Amr and the polytheists with him in the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah testified that he is Muhammad ibn Abdullah

On the authority of Al-Bara’ bin Azib, may God be pleased with him, he said:

The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, performed Umrah in Dhul-Qa'dah, but the people of Mecca refused to let him enter Mecca until he had ordered them to stay there for three days. When they wrote the document, they wrote: This is what Muhammad, the Messenger of God, has ordered. They said: We do not acknowledge it. If we had known that you were the Messenger of God, we would not have prevented you. But you are Muhammad ibn Abdullah. He said: I am the Messenger of Allah and I am Muhammad ibn Abdullah. Then he said to Ali, “Erase the Messenger of Allah.” He said, “No, by Allah, I will never erase you.”
