-------Original Message------- From: Noori Date: 21-01-2013 10:29:17 PM Subject: [AllahoAkbarGroup] The Glorious Companions Commemorating the Blessed Birth [Mawlid an-Nabawi Sharif]     Dear Readers, in the previous email, we provided the proofs from Qur'an and Hadith over the legitimacy of Celebrating the Blessed Birth (Mawlid Sharif) of Beloved Habeeb Kareem Alaihi afDalus Salati wat Tasleem. Now let us examine the Aqeeda (belief) of the Glorious AsHaab al-Kiraam in this concern, who are guiding beacons for us. What Does the Glorious Companions Believe? هاجرت إلى رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فقدمت عليه منصرفه من تبوك، فأسلمت، فسمعت العباس بن عبد المطلب يقول: يا رسول الله إنى أريد أن أمتدحك، فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: قل، لا يفضض الله فاك After gaining victory and success in Ghazwa Tabook when Rasoolullah (SallAllaho Alaihi WA Aalihi WA Sallam) arrived in Madinatul Munawwara, Hadrat Sayyiduna Abbas (Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu) requested permission from the Prophet (SallAllaho Alaihi WA Aalihi WA Sallam) to read a few stanzas in his praise then Mercy on the Mankind (Peace and Blessings of Allah be Upon Him) said, "My dear Uncle! Go ahead. May Almighty Allah keep your mouth well." This is what Sayyiduna al-`Abbas ibn `And al-Muttalib said: من قبلها طبت في الظلال وفى مستودع حيث يخصف الورق ثم هبطت البلاد لا بشر أنت ولا مضغة ولا علق بل نطفة تركب السفين وقد ألجم نسرا وأهله الغرق تنقل من صلب إلى رحم إذا مضى عالم بدا طبق وردت نارا لخليل مستترا في صلبه أنت كيف يحترق ثم احتوى بيتك المهيمن خندف علياء تحتها النطق وأنت لما ولدت أشرقت الارض ونارت بنورك الافق فنحن في ذلك الضياء وفى النور وسبل الرشاد نخترق ... Before you came to this world, You were excellent in the shadows and in the repository (I.e. Loins) In the time when they (Adam and Eve) covered themselves with leaves. Then you descended through the ages... When you were born, the earth shone And your light illuminated the horizon. We travel in that illumination and in the light and in the paths of right guidance."

Ibn-e-Kathir's Mawlad al-Mustafa, Page 29-30, Published in Lahore 1958. Mullah Ali al-Qari in his 'Sharh al-Shifa' (1:364) says it is related by Abu Bakr al-Shafi`I and Tabarani, and cited by Ibn `And al-Barr and Ibn al-Qayyim respectively in 'al-Isti`ab' and 'Huda Nabiyy Allah (SallAllaho Alaihi WA Aalihi WA Sallam)'. This has been stated in distinguished works of great Muhaditheen such as Imam Jalal al-Din as-Suyuti, Muhadith ibn Jauzi, Allamah Ibn Hajr, Allamah Halbi, Allamah Dahlaan Makki, Allamah Nabhaani, Allamah ibn Abdul Birr, Allamah Haakim, Ibn Kathir and Allamah Sharistaani (Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhum al-Ajma'een). Those who object on praising Beloved Prophet SallAllaho Alaihi WA Aalihi WA Sallam in poetry and reciting his praise on his mawlid must take a serious note to it!!   Flags on the Birth of Beloved Prophet SallAllaho Alaihi WA Sallam: Sayyidatuna Aamina Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anha states, ورأيت ثلاثة أعلام مضروبات علما في المشرق وعلما في المغرب وعلما على ظهر الكعبة فأخذني المخاض فولدت محمدا صلى الله عليه وسلم "I saw three flags are sited, One in East, One in West and the third one over the roof of Ka'ba and Prophet's (Peace and Blessings be Upon Him) birth took place." [Khasais al-Kubra, Vol. 1, Page 82, Published from Dar al-Kutub Ilmia, Berut – Lebanon] Beloved Prophet SallAllaho Alaihi WA Sallam and His Companions Entered Madina Munawwarah Carrying a Flag: When Prophet Peace and Blessings be Upon Him Migrated to Madinah Munawwarah, on reaching MoDa-e-Gameem near Madina; at that time Burayda Aslami along with 70 Horse riders of Bani Saham Tribe came to Prophet Peace and Blessings be Upon Him to arrest him (Ma'aadh Allah) but being inspired of Prophet's blessed and wonderful personality, he got highly admired and accepted Islam along with his tribe. Then he asked Prophet Peace and Blessings be Upon Him لا تدخل المدینة الا ومعك لواء، فحل عمامة ثم شدھا في رمح ثم مشی بین یدیه صلی الله علیه وسلم Please do not enter Madinah Munawwarah until we have a Flag. So, he tied his Turban on his arc and entered in Madinah Munawwarah with Prophet Sallallaho Alaihi Wasallam carrying that FLAG.

Tafseer al-Aalusi, Chapter 2, Vol. 7, Page 422 2. Tafseer Rooh al-Ma'ani, Vol. 2, Page 34 And witness how the Beloved Prophet of Allah SubHanuhu wa Ta'ala rewarded him? Hadrat Aaisha (Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anha) narrates that Holy Prophet (Peace and Blessings be Upon Him) built a pulpit for Hadrat Hassaan (Radi Allahu Ta'ala Anhu) in Masjid al-Nabawi Sharif, and Hadrat Hassaan use to Recite his praise standing on that pulpit giving answers to mushrikeen on behalf of Sayyiduna Muhammadur Rasoolullah (Sallallaho Alaihi wa Aalihi wa Sallam). For this act of Hadrat Hassaan, Holy Prophet (Sallallaho Alaihi wa Aalihi wa Sallam) said إن روح القدس لا يزال يؤيدك ما نافحت عن الله ورسوله صلى الله عليه وسلم "Jibril al-Ameen (RooH al-Quds) assists Hassaan while He recites and refutes mushrikeen on their accusations on Allah and His Prophet Peace and Blessings be upon Him" References: 1.
