Bismillahi rahmani raheem, assalamu alaikum.
Every now and again I come across a unique hadith from the Musannaf of Imam Abdul Razzaq on the creation of the universe translated into English, here is the latest, keep in mind this is metaphor teaching science and needs interpretation;
“Verily Allah (Ta’ala) created a tree having four branches and He called it the tree of certitude (Yaqeen), then He created the light of Muhammad (saw) in the veil (Hijab) of a white pearl like a peacock (Tawus), and He put him on this tree and he glorified on it (Allah) for 70 000 years. Then He created the mirror of life and He put it in front of it (the Nur of Muhammad) and when the peacock looked at it he saw his beautiful form and it became shy of Allah and he prostrated five times, and these prostrations became obligatory for us on time, So Allah ordered five prayers on the Prophet (saw) and his community.
Allah looked at this light, and he (the Nur of Muhammad) sweated from shyness towards Allah, and from the sweat of its head the angels were created. From the sweat of his face were created the ‘Arsh, the Kursi, the Lawh, the Qalam, the sun, the moon, the Hijab, the stars and whatever is in the heaven. From the sweat of its chest were created the Prophets, Messengers, scholars, martyrs and saints. From the sweat of his eyebrows was created the community with its believer men and women, Muslim men and women. And from the sweat of his ears were created the souls of Jews, Christians, Majus and similar people. And from the sweat of his feet was created the earth from the west until what it contains.
Then Allah ordered the light of Muhammad (saw) to look in front of him, and the light of Muhammad (saw) looked in front of him and saw light, and behind him light, at its right light, at its left light, and they were Abu Bakr, ‘Umar, ‘Uthman and ‘Ali (may Allah be pleased with them).
Then he glorified (Allah) for 70 000 years, then the light of the Prophets were created from the light of Muhammad (saw), then he looked at this light and from it the souls of the Prophets were created and they said: La ilaha Ila Allah Muhammad Rasulullah…then the shape of Muhammad (saw) was created like his shape in the world…then the souls did Tawaf around the Nur of Muhammad (saw) and did Tasbih and Tahlil for 100 000 years.
Then he ordered them (the souls of the creation) to look at him (Nur Muhammad), and they all looked at him, some saw his head and they became Caliphs and rulers in the world, some saw his face and became just rulers, some saw his eyes and became memorizers of the speech of Allah (Ta’ala)…some saw his cheeks and became good and intelligent, some saw his nose and became wise men, doctors and perfume sellers, some saw his lips and had beautiful faces and became ministers (Vizir), some saw his mouth and became fasting people, some saw his ears and had beautiful faces among men and women, some of them saw his tongue and became messengers of rulers…some saw his bird and became martyrs in the way of Allah, some saw his neck and became businessmen, some saw his shoulders and became archer and thrower of spears…some saw his right arm and became money changer, some saw his left arm and became people weighting, some saw his hands and became generous, some saw the nails of his right hand and became cloth dyers, those who saw the nails of his left hand and became woodcutters, some saw his fingers tips and became writers, Some saw the exterior of his fingers of the right hand and became tailors, those who saw the exterior of the fingers of his left hand became blacksmith, some saw his chest and became scholars, grateful people and Mujtahid…some saw his chin and became people of expeditions (Ghazi), some saw his stomach and became pious and abstinent, some saw his thighs and became people doing a lot of Sajdah and Ruku’, some saw his legs and became hunters…and some did not look at him and became people claiming lordship like pharaoh and others from the disbelievers, and some looked at him but did not see him became Jews and Christians and others from the disbelievers.” (Musannaf Abd Al Razzaq)
The musannaf of Imam Abdul Razzq is probably the most important collection of Ahadith today because our focus is entirely on science and understanding the universe and this work contains Ahadith about the creation of the universe and the first moments of time.
But this work was not preserved carefully and the manuscripts are scattered around the world. In 1970 11 volumes of the work were published claiming to be the complete work but scholars from around the world have latter found more complete manuscripts although they remain unpublished, the above hadith is from one of the unpublished volumes.
As a result this created opportunity for the fitnah mongers to create trouble for Muslims by rushing and declaring any volume that is not published is fabricated, one child claiming to be a scholar wrote a lengthy article in which his proof for fabrication is how ridiculous the above hadith sounds, maybe someone should give him a dictionary open to the pages explaining what a metaphor and simile are.
The hadith above is a simile for how things in subatomic space were created, if you have read my work you will know how to interpret this hadith and if you know me you will know I have already gained enough knowledge from this hadith to write my next book, because I know science and how to interpret the Quran and the words of the Prophet (saws).
I challenge anyone who calls this fabricated to also declare this hadith has nothing to do with science, rather you have nothing to do with science, may Allah curse the liars behind this modern fitnah they are all Masonic Arabs.
