Reply to a doubt: The Prophet of Islam says: God is a young beardless man!

 

They said mockingly: The Prophet of Islam said about his Lord that He is a beardless young man , and this is considered an insult to Allah..... And they provided evidence for that with several narrations that I will mention later - God willing -. The response to the doubt first: The narrations that they provide as evidence are false and fabricated narrations attributed to the Prophet (peace and blessings of God be upon him); the Prophet (peace and blessings of God be upon him) never said that God is a beardless young man.... A beardless young man is a handsome young man who has no beard... The narrations related to this matter were ruled as fabricated by eminent scholars as follows: 1- Sheikh Al-Ajlouni stated in his book: (Kashf Al-Khafa) Part One, No. 1409: “I saw my Lord on the Day of Nafr on a gray camel wearing a woolen cloak in front of the people.” Al-Qari said: It is fabricated and has no basis in evidence. Al-Subki said: The hadith, “I saw my Lord in the form of a beardless young man ,” is circulated on the tongues of some Sufis, and it is fabricated and attributed to the Messenger of God , may God bless him and grant him peace. I said: And what Sheikh Al-Subki said in (Tabaqat Al-Shafi’i Al-Kubra, Vol. 2, p. 312): “It is fabricated and attributed to the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace.” And what Sheikh Mulla Ali Al-Qari Al-Harawi said: “It is fabricated and has no basis...” It was also mentioned in his book: (The Secrets of the Elevated in the Fabricated News)". It was also weakened by Ibn al-Jawzi in (The Infinite Ills in Weak Hadiths, Vol. 1/p. 36) and was denounced by al-Dhahabi in (The Biographies of the Nobles, Vol. 10/p. 113) and Mizan al-I'tidal (Vol. 1/p. 594) and was weakened by Ibn 'Adi in al-Kamil fi al-Du'afa (Vol. 2/p. 262). 2- Imam al-Suyuti in al-Jami' al-Kabir, No. 12739, on the authority of Umm al-Tufayl, the wife of Abi bin Ka'b, who said: He, peace be upon him, said: "I saw my Lord in a dream in the form of a respected young man in green, wearing two sandals of gold, and on his face was a bed of gold." Narrated by al-Tabarani (25/143, No. 346). Al-Haythami said - in Majma' al-Zawa'id wa Manba' al-Fawa'id - (7/179): Ibn Hibban said: It is a hadith. It is denied because Ammarah bin Amir bin Hazm Al-Ansari did not hear from Umm At-Tufayl, who mentioned him in the biography of Ammarah in Al-Thiqat. Therefore, since the hadith is a lie and fabricated against the Prophet Muhammad, we Muslims do not believe it, and it does not serve the interests of the objectors... Secondly, Muslims believe that Allah is like nothing; He said: {There is nothing like Him, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing} (Ash-Shura 11). It is stated in the easy interpretation: Nothing resembles Him, nor does anything of His creation resemble Him, neither in His essence, nor in His names, nor in His attributes, nor in His actions; because all of His names are beautiful, and His attributes are attributes of perfection and greatness, and His actions are what He created the great creations with without any partner, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing. Nothing of the deeds and sayings of His creation is hidden from Him, and He will reward them for that. Ah, so whatever comes to your mind, Allah is greater than that. We affirm for Allah  what He affirmed for Himself or His Messenger r; because no one knows Allah  better than Allah , and no one among mankind knows Allah  better than His Messenger r. And there are attributes that we neither affirm nor deny that Allah  did not tell us about Himself or His Messenger r.... So we are not among those who embody the Lord of the Worlds, nor do we deny His attributes, nor are we misguiders..... And based on that, since the hadith is fabricated and contains an insult to the Lord of the Worlds, the answer is: Allah is not a beardless young man...





























Rather, it came in the authentic hadith, in the Shade of Paradise by Al-Albani - may Allah have mercy on him - No. 469, on the authority of Ibn Abbas, who said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: “I saw my Lord, the Most High, in the best form.
” The narration is clarified by another narration in Sahih Muslim, No. 262, in which he, may

Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: “I saw a light.” Therefore, Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, did not see his Lord in His true form. This is indicated by the fact that Abu Dharr said: O Messenger of Allah, have you seen your Lord? He said: “A light, how can I see Him?” Narrated by Muslim, No. 261.

This is the principle that should be adhered to...that the Prophet did not see his Lord; the veil of light prevented him from seeing his Lord.
It was recorded in Musnad Ahmad, No. 18806, that Abu Musa said:
The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, stood up among us and said five words: Allah, the Most High, does not sleep, and it is not befitting for Him to sleep, but He lowers justice and raises it. The deeds of the night are raised to Him before the deeds of the day, and the deeds of the day before the deeds of the night. His veil is light. If He were to remove it, the glory of His face would burn everything that reaches Him. His sight is from His creation.
We notice his saying: “His veil is light,” and the Prophet said: “Light, how can I see Him?” Its meaning is: I did not see my Lord, for the light prevented me from seeing Him. This is also what he said in the other hadith: “I saw a light.”
And Allah the Almighty said: “It is not for a human being that Allah should speak to him except by revelation or from behind a veil or by sending a messenger to reveal, by His permission, what He wills. Indeed, He is Exalted and Wise.” (51) (Ash-Shura).
Accordingly,
the Prophet did not see his Lord in the form of a young beardless woman... neither in a visual vision nor in a dream...



Third: The objectors mock and laugh at a hadith that we do not recognize; A false subject attributed to the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), but they do not mock or object to the fact that their Lord Jesus, according to their belief, was once an infant, then a child, then a beardless young man...!

I wonder: Wasn't their Lord Jesus once an infant, then a child, then a beardless young man....?!

The answer: Yes; then why the mockery, and the point of suspicion for the objectors, not the Muslims...
We do not recognize the hadith as we have mentioned, but the objectors are the ones who believe that their Lord Jesus was once a beardless young man.....!

What is more amazing than that is that they do not mock or object to the fact that their Lord is described in the Holy Book as wailing, howling, walking barefoot and naked, wailing like jackals, and moaning like ostriches; That is: He puts his head in the sand...

This came in the Book of Micah, Chapter 1, Verse 8, the Lord said about himself: "For this I will mourn and howl, I will walk barefoot and naked, I will wail like jackals, I will mourn like ostriches."

I wonder: When their Lord walked barefoot (without shoes) and naked (without clothes)... Was he in the form of a beardless young man or in another form?!
