Imam Al Mahdi (AS) - Professor Al Massari Part 3 of 13 (2014-03-29) #

0:00:00 yeah and he took on him to protect the
0:00:02 dicker so he made sure that the
0:00:04 companions will tell the truth and
0:00:06 memorize properly where it is counts
0:00:09 he never ordered us to listen to their
0:00:11 point of view although their point of
0:00:12 view is that respect to at a point of
0:00:13 view like any other scholar or even more
0:00:15 than in elsewhere because they have
0:00:17 taken scholarship from the original
0:00:19 direct and pure source let me say you
0:00:20 know allah but still it's an opinion
0:00:22 opinion cannot out
0:00:24 outshine the reported
0:00:27 narratives from messenger of allah in no
0:00:29 way so we are not obliged
0:00:32 to take the opinion of venus road nor
0:00:34 his companions as a guideline what we
0:00:36 are glad to take is that what has come
0:00:37 from singular allah as long as we have
0:00:39 verified its reliability and
0:00:41 authenticity so the objection here is
0:00:43 not really a very strong objection and
0:00:46 we should not be
0:00:47 uh
0:00:48 causing us to regard this hadith as
0:00:50 questionable
0:00:51 the third hadith is from abu hurayrah
0:01:01 if there is only one day remaining in
0:01:03 the dunya this is obviously a
0:01:04 metaphorical form that it is going to
0:01:07 happen even if it's the last day it will
0:01:09 not be the last day of wesley but this
0:01:10 is a metaphorical if there will be only
0:01:13 one day allah will extend that day until
0:01:15 a man from my family will take the
0:01:17 rulership
0:01:20 whose name is corresponding or similar
0:01:22 or equal to mining everything about how
0:01:24 you interpret the word you want but what
0:01:26 it means stepping on top of the footstep
0:01:29 now does it mean it his name is muhammad
0:01:31 or ahmad this is the name of the prophet
0:01:33 or it may be the meaning of the name
0:01:38 someone could
0:01:51 so it could be in various things not
0:01:53 necessarily meaning it has to be exactly
0:01:55 muhammad muhammad
0:01:56 the fourth hadith
0:02:04 of
0:02:05 allah
0:02:09 if it has been only one day remaining
0:02:11 from that dunya in that day allah will
0:02:14 send a man from us ali is talking for us
0:02:17 meaning from the
0:02:18 it
0:02:19 who will fill it with justice
0:02:21 as it has been filled with injustice
0:02:26 so that's the hat the fourth heaven
0:02:27 fifth hadith
0:02:29 it is uh from ibrahim muhammad
0:02:32 from his father from ali
0:02:34 another hadith actually different than
0:02:35 the previous one
0:02:40 is from us the people of the
0:02:42 prophetic house
0:02:44 allah will perfect him in one night
0:02:48 this is the only one which is this
0:02:50 coming only through one channel and this
0:02:52 channel is only hasan meaning it's
0:02:53 acceptable it is not to deliver an
0:02:55 authenticity which is
0:02:58 fixed by the strict scholars like
0:02:59 bukhari and muslim
0:03:01 so we cannot claim it is authentic the
0:03:03 previous one are authentic they may have
0:03:04 come with one stat hassam but the other
0:03:07 hassan is not collaborating together
0:03:08 lifting it to the level of our industry
0:03:10 but this one has come with only that one
0:03:12 is not
0:03:13 and
0:03:14 this only channel which has this word
0:03:16 usually
0:03:17 allah perfect him in one night and maybe
0:03:19 it's not memorized probably maybe he
0:03:21 says allah will perfect things through
0:03:23 him in one night which makes sense when
0:03:26 we compare to the other hadith which
0:03:28 talk about that he will fill the earth
0:03:30 with justice and equity after it has
0:03:32 been filled with injustice in a
0:03:33 transgression
0:03:34 so we cannot rely really even in the
0:03:36 wording to be exacting there may be some
0:03:38 some proposition or some part of the
0:03:41 sentence missing there because as we
0:03:43 said the snad is not extremely bad but
0:03:45 it is not to the authenticity level we
0:03:47 are used to usually in the
0:03:50 in the habit so these are the really the
0:03:52 five main hadith you may notice easily
0:03:54 that none of them use the red money
0:03:57 so the people convention that the one
0:03:59 with these characteristics is the mahdi
0:04:01 is really
0:04:03 the head of the people and coming from
0:04:05 other sources and channels but it's not
0:04:06 coming there's no hadith away so let's
0:04:09 look at this and think about it number
0:04:11 one
0:04:12 and this will make us even more
0:04:15 convinced about that that there's no
0:04:16 wonder that the combines of abdullah mr
0:04:18 would say that al-mahdi says
0:04:20 does not deny that like this galaxy will
0:04:23 come later but the real madison
0:04:25 so these are his characteristics he's
0:04:28 been alibity in the material from my
0:04:30 house
0:04:31 that has come in four
0:04:32 authentic hadith and in a hadith which
0:04:35 is a fifth one which is hasan
0:04:38 and will come in the hadith of the black
0:04:40 banners which will come in a special
0:04:42 section because it has his own space and
0:04:43 islamic
0:04:46 and also in the hadith
0:04:47 it reminds us about the which will comes
0:04:49 later
0:04:50 so this seems to be that he is from
0:04:52 albeit seems to be if
0:04:55 the whole thing can be regarded
0:04:56 authentic that's the most authentic part
0:04:58 of it this attribute that is from the
0:05:00 house of the prophet is well established
0:05:03 i would say
0:05:04 i would feel confident be a doubt
0:05:07 the second one
0:05:10 he fills the earth with justice after it
0:05:11 has been filled with inequity and
0:05:13 transgression
0:05:14 this has come in three athletic hadith
0:05:18 and we if we are liberal in celebrating
0:05:21 allah perfectly in one night meaning
0:05:23 allah will perfect the conditions
0:05:24 through him in one night
0:05:27 yeah
0:05:28 which means
0:05:29 actually
0:05:30 instead of
0:05:31 allah believe in be with him with him
0:05:35 has been missing and now it's only two
0:05:36 letters
0:05:38 because we say that is not a business
0:05:39 now we can we can rely upon
0:05:42 then it fits in that meaning if allah
0:05:44 perfect everything through him meaning
0:05:45 the earth must be filled with justice
0:05:47 after it has been followed if we like
0:05:49 transformation so it fits in that
0:05:50 meaning and this is the better
0:05:52 approach in understanding this sentence
0:05:54 because some people say he maybe have
0:05:56 been living a life of the unworried and
0:05:59 the one who is not caring about the
0:06:00 nation and suddenly in one night he
0:06:02 awakes to his responsibility and become
0:06:04 this i'm not saying this is impossible
0:06:06 but does not look like this is a
0:06:08 characteristic which
0:06:10 really or he is a drunkard and suddenly
0:06:11 become a wise man or something i don't
0:06:14 think this is the i think it's a better
0:06:15 to say since that sentence has come with
0:06:18 not the top is not we wish for maybe a
0:06:21 the word with him has fallen
0:06:23 aside either
0:06:25 in the transcription of one of
0:06:26 generators mostly that one transcript
0:06:29 transported not only orally but also a
0:06:31 writing and control distinction to the
0:06:32 stupid orientalists who claim all that
0:06:34 scholarly people are sitting in a coffee
0:06:36 shop by chatting that's the way and it
0:06:38 has been narrated but this was our issue
0:06:39 today so plenty of that has been
0:06:42 narrated or most of it has been added
0:06:44 also in writing however i think you have
0:06:46 the pitfalls of omitting one word
0:06:48 jumping a line all these well-known
0:06:50 pitfalls of written transcription
0:06:53 so
0:06:54 this if we take that on board so we have
0:06:57 that also about in three uh
0:07:00 authentic hadith and one hassan hadid
0:07:02 that he will fill the earth injustice
0:07:04 with justice and so on these are
0:07:05 actually the two crucial things which
0:07:07 are reasonably well established
0:07:10 we have still
0:07:11 one uh other aspect which is
0:07:13 establishing two correct uh
0:07:20 many things
0:07:21 so don't bet on that his name is
0:07:23 muhammad or ahmed that would be a wrong
0:07:25 bet that's coming into hadith sir and
0:07:28 then the fourth one that he rules for uh
0:07:30 seven or eight or nine years let's say
0:07:32 around seven
0:07:33 and about the length of that has come in
0:07:36 only one hadith
0:07:37 which is not essential actually how long
0:07:39 he rules but
0:07:41 it is not an extended tied time you
0:07:43 expect
0:07:44 after all that injustice to he would say
0:07:47 like the hadith
0:07:48 he will rule for 40 years which gives
0:07:50 you more pleasure of having such a
0:07:52 relationship but this one will be
0:07:53 followed most likely with another ruler
0:07:55 who is no less in equity and who will
0:07:58 all be belong at the khabari so that's
0:08:00 just the beginning the first one to
0:08:02 establish
0:08:03 the just and equitable government after
0:08:04 a long time of transitional inequity
0:08:08 and then another aspect which is bodily
0:08:10 description i don't think this is very
0:08:11 important but it has come in one hadith
0:08:14 which is ajith
0:08:15 with a broad forehead and standing nose
0:08:19 and this is just a physical description
0:08:21 which is
0:08:22 when he comes if he's it's true that the
0:08:24 mahdi is coming and all of that is not
0:08:26 just
0:08:27 some narrators have
0:08:29 have followed some of their fantasy or
0:08:31 wishful thinkings which cannot be
0:08:33 actually excluded absolutely certified
0:08:35 despite we have various hadith because
0:08:37 all of them do not correspond to each
0:08:39 other in in a unique way
0:08:41 so that we cannot really say they are
0:08:43 multilateral and then we have this
0:08:45 these this fact with with attitude also
0:08:48 the fact that the all the hadith
0:08:50 stressed that he would be a just ruler
0:08:52 could be a reflection to the injustice
0:08:54 and suffering the people who are
0:08:55 suffering
0:08:57 when the
0:08:58 rashida has been transformed into an
0:09:00 oppressive regime
0:09:02 so a response to that could be
0:09:04 it could be of this type
0:09:06 wishing for someone who is a just ruler
0:09:08 like in bani israel the messianic
0:09:10 stories and so on and mushrooms
0:09:12 or three types of messiah and all
0:09:14 messiahs have been rejected except one
0:09:16 which will tend to be the antichrist so
0:09:18 all this could happen and cannot be
0:09:20 excluded although in islamic tradition
0:09:22 and narratives we have much more
0:09:23 safeguards and racial narratives but
0:09:25 still
0:09:27 we have to be cautious
0:09:29 so we have
0:09:30 uh also an anode very important for for
0:09:33 the listener is that
0:09:35 these hadiths you say they are authentic
0:09:36 they are not every they have not come
0:09:39 with an authentic chain like the level
0:09:40 of buhari and muslim
0:09:42 they have come with isn't hasan another
0:09:44 independent established hassan and the
0:09:46 third and so on which
0:09:47 every hadith
0:09:50 for people like bukhari who insist at
0:09:52 least to have one is not which is sahih
0:09:55 they don't fit in his condition the same
0:09:57 with muslims so none of them isn't
0:09:59 muslim which should give us a little bit
0:10:01 of discomfort and a feeling of i'm not
0:10:04 claiming that all authentic
0:10:07 there are some authentic
0:10:09 but we know all for a fact that some of
0:10:11 the hadith muslim do not reach the same
0:10:13 level of authenticity like the other one
0:10:15 in nassari that is
0:10:18 we know that nobody's claiming that but
0:10:20 still that is such a topic which is hot
0:10:23 obviously topic at the time of the
0:10:24 writing of the major books that muharram
0:10:27 usually did not find anything up to
0:10:28 their standard give you a bad feeling
0:10:30 about the whole whole issue of mahdi
0:10:34 without necessary meaning it is invalid
0:10:36 or is fabricated but gives still
0:10:39 a signal of being cautious and being
0:10:42 more worried than otherwise
0:10:45 not so for the messiah the jed the
0:10:47 antichrist not so for the camera visa
0:10:50 not so for the final signs of the our
0:10:52 behavior big ten last signs
0:10:55 that is
0:10:57 all of it well established beyond this
0:10:59 one there's a i'm not saying i just try
0:11:02 to remind everyone don't be carried away
0:11:05 with some people or not use all of the
0:11:06 update of the muslim if you don't
0:11:08 believe in sri lanka don't really carry
0:11:10 the way of that many many people in
0:11:12 islamic history have doubted the issue
0:11:14 of mahdi and menu have many have
0:11:16 regarded as akida so we have this and
0:11:18 this and i don't think anyone of any of
0:11:21 the parties declare the other one to be
0:11:23 accountable because of that so we should
0:11:25 be cautious in that and not go overboard
0:11:44 you
