What do you think of when you look at this image? You see a man who is religious, lives by his beliefs, a man many people will refer as a “mawlawī” or “mullah” in a very derogatory manner. But what if we told you that this man who follows the Sunnah by growing a beard, having..

An Imām in Palestine who leads the Tarāwīḥ prayers in Ramaḍān said: “There is a person who always attends the first row who has Down Syndrome which is why his voice can be loud sometimes, and other times, he does rukūʾ and sujūd without the Imām. And when I raise from rukūʾ and say ‘Samiʾa Llāhu liman Ḥamidah’ (Allāh listens to whom praises Him), that person innocently cries out loud: ‘Do you hear me Allāh?’ And when we do prostration, he innocently cries out loud: ‘I love you Allāh!’” A person with Down Syndrome worships Allāh better than us; it is truly us who are down. His example given is what we call Iḥsān. He does not just worship Allāh; he loves Allāh.

A righteous Shaykh, Hāshim Majzūb al-Rifāʿī, was locked up by the Syrian regime for over 20 years. He said countless numbers of prisoners, who didn’t even know how to read the Qurʾān, memorized al-Qurʾān with him in the prison and became ʿUlamāʾ. He tearfully said, “Wallāhi, on the days that I was unable to teach them because I was away from them, the students would see Rasūlullāh ﷺ at night in their dreams, and he would teach them. They would wake up in the morning with the verses memorized.”

In this time of test and tribulation (fitnah) we in the West are being confronted by many individuals belonging to Wahhabiyyah sect who call themselves scholars and ambassadors of Islam and try to advocate the religion according to their whims and desires. Unknowingly, our ears are getting exposed to their poison which will slowly intoxicate our hearts and take away the traditional understanding of the religion and make us fall into people of innovation (bid’ah), or even worse, lead us to the archway of disbelief (kufr) - Allah forbid! Especially our youngsters who have just step foot on the path of seeking knowledge, often get exposed to the wrong speakers and preachers and base their choice of searching upon appearance and speech instead of traditional scholarship. The rightly guided group of Islam is Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l Jama’ah. They are the Hanafis, Malikis, Shafi’is, Hanbalis, Atharis (Mufawwidah), Maturidis and Ash’aris. They are the majority of the Ummah and they will remain so until the End Times. Anyone who does not belong to them is from the cults, who will always remain the minority. Below we want to share with you all a list of some of the trustworthy english speaking scholars from Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l Jama’ah. Additionally, bear in mind that this list is very limited, nevertheless, we’ve tried our best to show some scholars of Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l Jama’ah whom all can benefit from through their work, da’wah and lectures available on YouTube and the Internet. The names of the scholars on the picture will be presented for each row beginning from left to right. 1st row: Shaykh Dr. Shadee Elmasry Shaykh Ehsan Iqbal Qadri Shaykh Mohammed Aslam Shaykh Dr. Gibril Fouad Haddad 2nd row: Shaykh Ibrahim Osi Efa Shaykh Saqib Iqbal Shami Shaykh Salek bin Siddina Shaykh Mahdi Lock 3rd row: Shaykh Wajid Iqbal Shaykh Asrar Rashid Shaykh Ahmed Deedat Shaykh Ahmad Saad al-Azhari 4th row: Shaykh Afeefuddin al-Jailani Shaykh Yusuf ibn Sadiq al-Hanbali Shaykh Abu Ja'far al-Hanbali Shaykh Mahy ibn Aliyu Cisse 5th row: Shaykh Imran Angullia al-Hafiz Shaykh Muhammad Abul Huda al-Yaqoubi Shaykh Dr. Samir an-Nass Shaykh Dr. Monawwar Ateeq

Sayyidunā Saʿd ibn Abī Waqqāṣ was the 13th Companion to embrace Islām and the first Muslim to bring Islām to China in the year 650. Though he did not speak a word of Chinese, the radiance of his blessed face inspired many to accept Islām through him.

How were the people of Madīnah in times before these?” Shaykh Ḍiyāʾ al-Dīn al-Madanī answered: “A rich pilgrim once went to a cloth shop and asked for a certain variety of cloth in a large quantity to distribute it among the poor. The shopkeeper said; ‘I have the cloth in the quantity you request, however I urge you to buy the [same] cloth from the shop opposite mine. I have had a good day of sales but that shopkeeper has had very little sales.’” Shaykh Ḍiyāʾ al-Dīn then said: “The people of Madīnah were like this in the past.” May Allāh bless the people of Madīnah.

Sayyid Muḥammad ibn ʿAlawī al-Mālikī رحمه الله passed away in Makkah 20 years ago. It is a norm that the government buries new people in the same graves due to bodies naturally decomposing. His close student, Ḥabīb ʿAbd al-Ḥamīd from Palembang, who accompanied him for many years, said: “Since Sayyid Muḥammad passed away his grave has been opened three times but Wallāhi, every time they have opened it, they saw his body was in the exact pure condition as it was on the day that he was buried.” That is the reward of honouring the Beloved of Allāh ﷺ and defending Ahl al-Sunnah. Those who love the Prophet ﷺ are protected in this world, in the grave, and on the Last Day.

Or are you one of those who perform this beautiful act but don’t really know the reason behind it? You’ll find the answer in this post. 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝟭) 𝐈𝐦𝐚̄𝐦 𝐚𝐥-𝐓̣𝐚𝐡𝐭̣𝐚̄𝐰ī 𝐚𝐥-𝐇̣𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐟ī 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬: Al-Qaḥṭānī states in his work Kanz al-ʿIbād: IT IS RECOMMENDED (يستحب) upon hearing the first testification upon Prophet ﷺ and say "Ṣallā Llāhu ʿalayka yā Rasūlu Llāh.” And upon hearing the second time to say, “Qurratu ʿaynī bika yā Rasūlu Llāh, Allāhumma mattiʿnī bi-s-samʿi wa-l-baṣar” (my eyes find comfort in you, O Messenger of Allāh. O Allāh, bless me in my hearing and sight) after placing his thumbs over his eyes. He may Allāh’s prayers and peace be upon him, will be his guide in Jannah. It is narrated by al-Daylamī in his Musnad al-Firdaws the Ḥadīth of Sayyidunā Abū Bakr in Marfūʿ form that when you hear the Muʾadhdhin saying “أشهد أن محمدا رسول الله” then you should kiss your thumbs and rub them on your eyes… It was similarly narrated from Sayyidunā al-Khiḍr, and such acts are practiced in the virtues (faḍāʿil). [Imām aṭ-Ṭahṭāwī in Sharḥ Marāqīh al-Falāh, 1/110] 𝟮) 𝐈𝐬𝐦𝐚̄ʿī𝐥 𝐇̣𝐚𝐪𝐪ī 𝐁𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐰ī (𝐝. 𝟏𝟏𝟐𝟕) 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬: It is narrated in books regarding stories of Prophets that when Ādam (peace be upon him) had the desire to meet Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ in Jannah, at that point Allāh revealed to him (Waḥī) that: "He (ﷺ) is from your descendants and will appear in the latter times." When Nabī Ādam desired to see him then Allāh made the Nūr of Rasūlullāh ﷺ appear in the right index finger of Ādam and this Nūr praised Allāh, this is why the index finger is also called the finger of testification and "Misbāḥah”, as is mentioned in ar-Rūz al-Fāʾiq. Allāh, the Most High manifested the beauty of Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ in the clarity of the fingernails of his thumbs, resembling a mirror in both the nails of his thumb, upon seeing that Ādam kissed the fingernails and wiped them over his eyes and “THUS THIS SUNNAH WAS ESTABLISHED IN HIS DECENDANTS” and when Jibrīl informed Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ regarding this, he said: Whoever hears my name and kisses the thumbnails and wipes them over his eyes will never suffer eye afflictions. [Tafsīr Rūḥ al-Bayān, 11/107] 𝐅𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐡̣𝐚𝐝ī𝐭𝐡, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐮𝐟𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐫ī𝐧 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞: The material of the nails is the material of the clothes of Jannah: 1) Tafsīr Khāzin (Lubāb al-Taʾwīl fī Maʿānī al-Tanzīl) by al-Khāzin (d. 725 AH): Under Sūrat al-Aʿrāf, Āyah 22: "So he brought about their fall through deception. And when they tasted of the tree, their shame was exposed to them, prompting them to cover themselves with leaves from Paradise." Qatādah said: In Jannah, the clothes of Ādam ʿalayhi al-salām were made from "nail-like material" that covered them. But when they made the mishap, it was stripped from them, revealing their shame. 2) Tafsīr Rūḥ al-Bayān by Ismāʿīl Ḥaqqī Burūsawī (d. 1127): Their clothing in Jannah was made entirely of nails, with the utmost delicacy, softness, and whiteness, serving as a barrier to seeing the essence of their bodies. When they committed the mishap (of eating from the tree), that covering was removed from their bodies, and only remnants remained at the tips of their fingers, serving as a reminder of the lost blessings and a renewal of remorse. This shows that our nails are a paradisical dress. Therfore we kiss the heavenly dress to hear His ﷺ name. Similarly how we kiss the Ḥajr al-Aswad as a token of that heavenly adobe which was sent to the Earth. Likewise, the nail is also a token of that paradisidal dress.

It appears that the Saudis are finally moving towards joining the rest of the Sunnī world, with 'Abdul Raḥmān Sudais holding a "Mawlid" of sorts, reading poetry in praise of Rasūlullāh ﷺ and his birth during his speech in the month of Rabī' al-Awwal in al-Masjid al-Ḥarām in Makkah. He says: “...In it [Rabī' al-Awwal] is the birth of the Messenger of Allāh, peace and blessings be upon him. Guidance was born, and everything in creation was illuminated, the time had arrived, and the praise was manifest, More beautiful than you ﷺ, my eye has never seen, And no one more beautiful than you ﷺ has any woman ever given birth to, You ﷺ were born free from all flaws, As if you ﷺ were created just as you ﷺ had willed.” May Allāh guide them back to Ahlus Sunnah.

On this day, we honor the legacy of a towering figure who, though bound to a wheelchair, stirred millions from the depths of ignorance. He was a beacon of courage, inspiring millions of hearts around the world to rise for the honor of the Prophet ﷺ, the glory of Islām, and its implementation. He kindled the flame of the Prophet’s ﷺ love in the hearts of the youth, nurturing a generation devoted to revering and defending the Beloved Messenger ﷺ. A lion of Islām, his roar struck fear into the hearts of the Kuffār. Even now, his name unsettles them – so much so that at its mere mention, they scramble to silence it on their platforms. Such is the enduring power of his legacy.

This photo was taken in ʿIrāq 1930s during the reburial of the Companions Ḥudhayfah ibn al-Yamān and ʿAbdullāh ibn Jābir! Sayyidunā Ḥudhayfah appeared in the dreams of the ruler informing him of their graves at the bank of the river Tigris. When people went to their graves and opened them open - both were seen completely preserved, intact, fresh, and illuminated. Even after 1400 years their bodies smelt heavenly and they looked more alive than those who walk the earth. Their bodies were then moved and reburied. Non-Muslims who were present during the re-burial accepted Islām when they saw the miracle and the beauty of their bodies. This has been well documented in history and it is undeniable.

Shaykh Muḥammad Saʿīd Ramaḍān al-Būṭī said that when he read how much the orientalist writers and the enemies of the religion were attacking our mother, Sayyidah ʿĀʾisha, he decided to write a book in her defense, which spoke about her blessed life. His daughter was living in Riyāḍ at the time, and she had no idea about the book the Shaykh was authoring on the greatness of the noble wife of the Prophet ﷺ. She tearfully rang the Shaykh one day and said: “Last night, I saw a dream that a lady walked into my room and said, ‘I am the Mother of the Believers, ʿĀʾisha, and I have come because I want to thank your father for the book he has authored in my defense.’” The Shaykh would burst into tears when narrating this story. May Allāh continue to honor and raise our noble mother, Sayyidatunā ʿĀʾisha al-Ṣiddīqah.

He was a Ḥāfidh at the age of 9, Sulṭān at the age of 12 and conqueror of Constantinople at the age of 21. He destroyed 2 empires, 4 kingdoms, 11 principalities, spoke 7 languages, and was honored by the praise of the Prophet ﷺ eight hundred years before he was born. His excellency, Sulṭān Muḥammad al-Fātiḥ al-Ḥanafī al-Māturīdī al-Naqshbandī. “Verily you shall conquer Constantinople. What an excellent leader will he be, and what an excellent army will that army be!” [Musnad Aḥmad] Constantinople was then renamed Islāmbol and later Istanbul.

🧵𝐎𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐝𝐚𝐲, the joy of all joys, our beloved and beautiful Prophet ﷺ was born! There is a small difference of opinion but the 𝐦𝐚𝐣𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰 held is that it was the 12th Rabīʿ al-Awwal: 1. Imām ibn Isḥāq (85-151 H): The Prophet ﷺ was born on 12th Rabīʿ al-Awwal in ʿĀm al-Fīl. [Imām ibn Jawzī al-Ḥanbalī in al-Wafā, pg. 87] 2. Imām ibn Hishām (213 H): The Prophet ﷺ was born on Monday 12th Rabīʿ al-Awwal in ʿĀm ul-Fīl. [Al-Sīrah Al-Nabawiyyah, vol. 1, pg. 158] 3. Imām ibn Jarīr al-Ṭabarī (224-310 H): The Prophet ﷺ was born on Monday 12th Rabīʿ al-Awwal in ʿĀm al-Fīl. [Tārīkh al-Umam wa’l-Mulūk, Vol. 2, Page 125] 4. ʿAllāma Abū al-Ḥasan ʿAlī bin Muḥammad al-Māwardī (370-480 H): The Prophet ﷺ was born 50 days after the event of Ashāb al-Fīl and after the death of His father on Monday 12th Rabīʿ al-Awwal. [Aʿlām al-Nabūwwa, pg. 192] 5. Imām al-Ḥāfidh Abū al-Fatāḥ al-Andalūsī (671-734 H): Our leader and the Prophet ﷺ was born on Monday 12th Rabīʿ al-Awwal in ʿĀm al-Fīl. [Aʿyān al-ʿAṣr, vol.1, pg. 33] 6. ʿAllāma ibn Khaldūn (732-808 H): The Prophet ﷺ was born on 12th Rabīʿ al-Awwal in ʿĀm al-Fīl. It was the 40th year of Emperor Kasra Noshairwān. [Al-Tārīkh vol. 2, pg. 394] 7. Muḥammad al-Ṣādiq Ibrāhīm al-Arjūn: From various chains it has been established as true that the Prophet ﷺ was born on Monday 12th Rabīʿ al-Awwal in ʿĀm ul-Fīl in the reign of Kasra Noshairwān. [Muḥammad Rasūlullāh, vol. 1, pg. 102] 8. Shaykh ʿAbd al-Ḥaq Muḥaddith Dehlvī (950-1052 H): Know it well, that overwhelming majority of the experts of siyar and tārīkh (i.e. biographers and historians) hold the opinion that an-Ḥaḍrat (i.e. the Prophet ﷺ) was born in ʿĀm al-Fīl… It is well known that the month was of Rabīʿ al-Awwal and its date was 12th. Various scholars have shown their agreement with this (date). [Madārij un-Nabuwwa, vol. 2, pg. 14] ► You can see that the historians/scholars from the first/second century of Hijrī, as well as the scholars of later times, had been authenticating it. 9. Nawāb Muḥammad Ṣādiq Ḥasan Khān Bohapalvī: The birth (of the Prophet ﷺ) happened in Makkah at the time of Fajr on Monday 12th Rabīʿ al-Awwal in ʿĀm al-Fīl. Majority of scholars holds this opinion. Ibn al-Jawzī has narrated a consensus (Ijmāʾ) of scholars on it. [Ash-Shumāmat al-Anbariya fī Mawlid Khayr al-Bariya, pg. 7] 10. Imām ibn Rajab al-Ḥanbalī: The vast majority hold that he (the Prophet ﷺ) was born on the Second Day of the Week (al-Ithnayn = “Monday”) 12th Rabīʿ al-Awwal... in the Year of the Elephant. [Laṭāʿif al-Maʿārif, pg.185] ► On the exact time of day that he was born: Sīdī al-Ghawth ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz al-Dabbāgh said in al-Ibrīz that he was born in the last third of the night, and Allāh Almighty Knows Best. 11. Ḥāfidh ibn Kathīr also mentions that the 12th Rabīʿ al-Awwal is relied upon by the majority (of ʿUlamāʾ and Ummah).

In 1994, Erdoğan asked Sayyid Nāzim al-Ḥaqqānī to pray for the elections in Istanbul because he was running for Mayor. Sayyid Nāzim laughed and said, "Don't worry, the elections in Istanbul are already yours. I'm going to make Du'ā for you to become the president of Türkiye."👇

When we walked backward from the blessed Rawḍah Sharīfah out of Adab for Rasūlullāh ﷺ, we were called all sorts of things by these people, stared at strangely, and even told off – and the ‘religious’ police stop you, claiming you’re committing Shirk. Yet walking backward like this for Trump and his spoon is completely fine? Subḥāna Llāh.

While the entire Ummah's focus is on Palestine right now, where Muslim freedom fighters are at the forefront to protect Muslims, unfortunately, we have Wahhābīs (especially Madkhalīs) on social media blaming Palestinians for not being victorious and successful because they do not understand Tawḥīd, their 'Aqīda is corrupt, and they are grave-worshippers. When people ask us why our FB page focuses so much on this cult, you probably now understand why. What greater accusation in this world is there than calling one's Muslim brother ignorant of Tawḥīd, which is the minimum requirement to be a Muslim, and accusing them of grave-worship, which is Shirk according to everyone? Is there any greater slander than this? Throughout history, Muslims have had external en*mies, but we must not forget that there have also been people who conspired against Muslims among themselves - the hypocr*tes. And today's hypocr*tes whether you like it or not, who betray Muslims and bootlick their Saudi masters, are the followers of this cult. Since the emergence of this sect about 200 years ago, their greatest achievement has been to f*ght against Muslims, be involved in the downfall of the Ottoman State, and give away Palestine. It was not for nothing that the Prophet ﷺ referred to the fitnah of this sect 1400 years ago: ► He ﷺ refused to make Du'ā for Najd because a lot of fitan (tribulations) would occur there, and Qarn al-Shayṭān would arise there. Scholars such as Imām Ibn 'Ābidīn ash-Shāmī and Shaykh Aḥmad Zaynī Daḥlān stated Qarn al-Shayṭān that was foretold by the Prophet ﷺ was the leader of this cult Muḥammad ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhāb. This is something Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l Jamā’ah agree upon. However, the Prophet ﷺ made a lot of Du'ā for countries like Syria, Palestine, and Yemen, where the Sunnī-Ṣūfīs are dominating. ► He ﷺ warned us against the tribes of Rabī'a and Mudar. Scholars have stated that Musaylimah (the false prophet) belonged to Rabī'a whereas Muḥammad ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhāb was from Mudar. ► He ﷺ warned us against the descendants of Dhul Khuwaysirah, the Father of Khawārij, who was from Banū Tamīm and who accused Rasūlullāh ﷺ of injustice. His descendants were described as those who would f*ght against Muslims and spare id*l-worshippers. And guess what, the one and only Ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhāb was also from the Banū Tamīm clan. ► Sayyidunā Ibn 'Umar told one of the characteristics of the Khawārij would be that they would take verses revealed about non-Muslims and apply them on Muslims, as Ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhāb's followers did and still do to this day. This is well-documented in works like Tārīkh by Ibn Ghannām, Khulāṣat al-Kalām, and others. ► He ﷺ told one of the signs of Khawārij would be that they shave their heads, which was done by Ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhāb's followers, also well-documented by scholars and historians, including Ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhāb's own grandchild. These people have corrupted people's 'Aqīda regarding Allāh by spreading Tajsīm/Tashbīh (likening Allāh to His creation), removing the love and veneration for Rasūlullāh ﷺ from people's hearts, attacking the eminent scholars of Khalaf who were at the forefront of safeguarding the creed of Salaf and developing the Islāmic tradition, creating mistrust of Madhāhib, and instilling hostility towards the Awliyā’ who were the reason why the Deen was spread on Earth. They constantly lie about Ṣūfīs (Ash'arīs/Māturīdīs), even though it was these Ṣūfīs who defended Islām academically and mil*tarily throughout history. The most recent examples of this that we have seen in our lifetime are the people of Afghanistan and Palestine - may Allāh bless them in this life and reward them in the next. What have the Wahhābīs done when it comes to defending Islām, other than defending tajsīm/tashbīh, displaying nifāq and khurūj?

𝗞𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗯𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘄𝗶𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻 𝗲𝘆𝗲𝘀 𝘂𝗽𝗼𝗻 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗻𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗵𝗲𝘁 ﷺ 🧵Have you ever wondered why some Muslims kiss their thumbs and wipe them over their eyes when they hear the beautiful name of the Prophet ﷺ? Or are you one of those who perform this beautiful act but don’t really know the reason behind it? You’ll find the answer in this post. 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝟭) 𝐈𝐦𝐚̄𝐦 𝐚𝐥-𝐓̣𝐚𝐡𝐭̣𝐚̄𝐰ī 𝐚𝐥-𝐇̣𝐚𝐧𝐚𝐟ī 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬: Al-Qaḥṭānī states in his work Kanz al-ʿIbād: IT IS RECOMMENDED (يستحب) upon hearing the first testification upon Prophet ﷺ and say "Ṣallā Llāhu ʿalayka yā Rasūlu Llāh.” And upon hearing the second time to say, “Qurratu ʿaynī bika yā Rasūlu Llāh, Allāhumma mattiʿnī bi-s-samʿi wa-l-baṣar” (my eyes find comfort in you, O Messenger of Allāh. O Allāh, bless me in my hearing and sight) after placing his thumbs over his eyes. He may Allāh’s prayers and peace be upon him, will be his guide in Jannah. It is narrated by al-Daylamī in his Musnad al-Firdaws the Ḥadīth of Sayyidunā Abū Bakr in Marfūʿ form that when you hear the Muʾadhdhin saying “أشهد أن محمدا رسول الله” then you should kiss your thumbs and rub them on your eyes… It was similarly narrated from Sayyidunā al-Khiḍr, and such acts are practiced in the virtues (faḍāʿil). [Imām aṭ-Ṭahṭāwī in Sharḥ Marāqīh al-Falāh, 1/110] 𝟮) 𝐈𝐬𝐦𝐚̄ʿī𝐥 𝐇̣𝐚𝐪𝐪ī 𝐁𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐚𝐰ī (𝐝. 𝟏𝟏𝟐𝟕) 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬: It is narrated in books regarding stories of Prophets that when Ādam (peace be upon him) had the desire to meet Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ in Jannah, at that point Allāh revealed to him (Waḥī) that: "He (ﷺ) is from your descendants and will appear in the latter times." When Nabī Ādam desired to see him then Allāh made the Nūr of Rasūlullāh ﷺ appear in the right index finger of Ādam and this Nūr praised Allāh, this is why the index finger is also called the finger of testification and "Misbāḥah”, as is mentioned in ar-Rūz al-Fāʾiq. Allāh, the Most High manifested the beauty of Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ in the clarity of the fingernails of his thumbs, resembling a mirror in both the nails of his thumb, upon seeing that Ādam kissed the fingernails and wiped them over his eyes and “THUS THIS SUNNAH WAS ESTABLISHED IN HIS DECENDANTS” and when Jibrīl informed Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ regarding this, he said: Whoever hears my name and kisses the thumbnails and wipes them over his eyes will never suffer eye afflictions. [Tafsīr Rūḥ al-Bayān, 11/107] 𝐅𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐡̣𝐚𝐝ī𝐭𝐡, 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐮𝐟𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐫ī𝐧 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞: The material of the nails is the material of the clothes of Jannah: 1) Tafsīr Khāzin (Lubāb al-Taʾwīl fī Maʿānī al-Tanzīl) by al-Khāzin (d. 725 AH): Under Sūrat al-Aʿrāf, Āyah 22: "So he brought about their fall through deception. And when they tasted of the tree, their shame was exposed to them, prompting them to cover themselves with leaves from Paradise." Qatādah said: In Jannah, the clothes of Ādam ʿalayhi al-salām were made from "nail-like material" that covered them. But when they made the mishap, it was stripped from them, revealing their shame. 2) Tafsīr Rūḥ al-Bayān by Ismāʿīl Ḥaqqī Burūsawī (d. 1127): Their clothing in Jannah was made entirely of nails, with the utmost delicacy, softness, and whiteness, serving as a barrier to seeing the essence of their bodies. When they committed the mishap (of eating from the tree), that covering was removed from their bodies, and only remnants remained at the tips of their fingers, serving as a reminder of the lost blessings and a renewal of remorse. This shows that our nails are a paradisical dress. Therfore we kiss the heavenly dress to hear His ﷺ name. Similarly how we kiss the Ḥajr al-Aswad as a token of that heavenly adobe which was sent to the Earth. Likewise, the nail is also a token of that paradisidal dress.

When Rasūlullāh ﷺ returned from the expedition of Tabūk in Madīnah, his uncle Sayyidunā ʿAbbās said: “O Beloved of Allāh (ﷺ), I want to praise you”, and sought permission to recite some lines of poetry in his praise. He ﷺ replied: “Recite, may your mouth remain fresh.” Thereafter Sayyidunā ʿAbbās began to recite his poetry, inside the Masjid, before Rasūlullāh ﷺ and in the gathering of approximate 30,000 companions, in which he mentioned the transition of our Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ through the lineage of the previous Prophets and how he ﷺ blessed them all. He said: “… 𝘽𝙚𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙘𝙖𝙢𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙡𝙙, 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘦𝘹𝘤𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘥𝘰𝘸𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘳𝘦𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘺 (𝘪.𝘦. 𝘭𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘴) 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 (𝘈̄𝘥𝘢𝘮 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘌𝘷𝘦) 𝘤𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘷𝘦𝘴 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘴. 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘥𝘦𝘴𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘴…” Sayyidunā ʿAbbās then continues: “...𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙙𝙖𝙮 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙬𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙗𝙤𝙧𝙣* 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙪𝙣 𝙧𝙤𝙨𝙚 𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙝 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙝𝙤𝙧𝙞𝙯𝙤𝙣 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙞𝙡𝙡𝙪𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙙 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙉𝙤𝙤𝙧; 𝘚𝘰 𝘸𝘦 – 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘳𝘢𝘥𝘪𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘭𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘱𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘨𝘶𝘪𝘥𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 – 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘱𝘪𝘦𝘳𝘤𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩.” *Note: The phrase ‘وأنت لما ولدت’ is used. Amazingly, the uncle of the Prophet ﷺ rejoiced the Mawlid in front of 30,000 Ṣaḥāba and in every line he recited, he mentioned the Mawlid of the Prophet ﷺ! Subḥāna Llāh! This historically confirms: 1. Mawlid upon the tongue of the blessed Ṣaḥāba. 2. Permitted by the Prophet ﷺ without any reproach. 3. Takes place in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ. 4. Poetry (Nashīd) in the Masjid. 5. At Masjid al-Nabawī. 6. Witnessed by others. 7. Birth of the Prophet ﷺ honoured explicitly. 8. Massively recorded and transmitted by elite Ṣaḥāba and ʿUlamāʾ of this Ummah. Just to mention a few references of this authentic narration and historical event that occurred: ► Talkhīs Mustadrak al-Ṣaḥīḥayn (this book is on the criteria of Bukhārī and Muslim and Ṣaḥīḥayn here refers to Bukhārī and Muslim), vol. 3, page 369, ḥadīth number 5417.

Mawlid is to hold a gathering in which a scholar/orator narrates miracles of the Mawlid and collectively people thank Allāh for sending His Beloved ﷺ to this Dunyā. That is the essence of Mawlid celebration which is why the Mawlid has aṣl in Sunnah. We *do not* believe that it must only be done on Rabīʿ al-Awwal. It can be celebrated at anytime during the year.
