Question

1-I just wanted to know if any kind of Hadith related the science or any sahaba(R.A) or person asking about the sun star and making of earth and universe to Muhammad (salalahu alhay wasallam) and wanted to know or taking interest to gain knowledge of something like study of science. 2- Is there any hadith or ayah where ALLAH(swt) promise to protect Khana-e-kaba. 3- What is your opinion about this web site www.interviewwithgod.net is it good to forward to ppl., many muslims doing this practice now a days. Jazakallahu Khairun

Answer

1) There are numerous Quraanic verses and Ahadith encouraging man to ponder over the creation of the universe, the sky,the earth, the sun and moon etc. from these Divine Texts we come to realise the virtue and value of pondering and studying these natural elements. The intention should solely be to recognise the greatness, grandeur and splendour of one's Creator and how He has created all these heavenly bodies in perfection alone and by means of this to gain the proximity of Allah Ta'ala. One should not become so engrossed in studying these phenomena that he begins to forget his prioreties in Deen and also to study these sciences in the light of the Holy Quraan and Ahadith. Allah Ta'ala mentions in the 4th chapter of the holy Quraan in Surah Aal-e-Imraan, verse no.190: Verily, in the creation of the skies and the earth and in the alternating of the night and the day are truly signs for those of intelligence.

In Al-Jaamius Sagheer of Allamah Suyuti a hadith is mentioned: Ponder over the creation...

It has been reported from a few Sahaba radiyallahu anhum that nabi alaihis salaam approached then and so they kept silent and he asked them: "What were you people speakin about?". They replied: "We looked at the sun and we were pondering over it that where did it come from and to where does it go and and we pondered over the creation of Allah". So, he said: " Continue to do so in the same manner, ponder over the creation of Allah but donot ponder over the being of Allah ...(Refer to Ad-durrul Mansoor Surah An-najm, verse no. 42-47)

2) We find in the treasure of Ahadith that nabi alaihis salaam once said that: "Make tawaaf of the ka'bah in abundance before it is lifted up and the people will forget its original place. Nabi alaihis salaam also said: Take maximum benefit from the Ka'bah because it was destroyed twice before and on the third occassion it will be raised up. In many Ahadith we find that the Ka'abah will remain intact till the time just before Qiyamat. (Ad-durrul Mansoor

Nabi alaihis salaam said: Those with smallweak shins from Abyssinia will destroy the Ka'abah. It is recorded in Fathul Bari that this will occur prior to Qiyanat when there will be no soul to utter the name of Allah.

3) Allah Ta'la states in the Holy Quraan: He has not made Deen as a burden upon you. Nabi alaihis salaam mentions: Certainly, Deen is easy. The Deen of Islaam comprises of the Quraan and the Sunnat. These two jewels are sufficient for our salvation in both the worlds and the beauty of Islaam is its easiness and practicality. If we donot understand a ceratin aspect, then the ideal would be to ask those that possess the knowledge. The method of propagating Islaam which is outlined in the Quraan and Hadith is suficient and most effective. Also, it should be understood that deen was spread from heart to heart. Our humble opinion is that this particular website should be ignored and not forwarded to others. The enemies of Islaam operate in very subtle ways. Let us cling to our Shariat through the guidance of the learned Scolars of Deen.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
