And then he is granted the acceptance of the people of the earth.” (Recorded in al-Bukhari and Muslim), “And when I love him, I am his hearing with which he hears, his seeing with which he sees, his hand with which he strikes, and his leg with which he walks.”. 1. It is part of Allah’s immense mercy that the deeds that are obligatory upon us are also those that draw us closer to Him, the Praised, the Glorious.

Every hadith about ‘Ali only uses wali (ولي), and not wali (والي). And, verily, they had been in manifest error.” (Surah Al-Jummuah:2). Reference to the Friends of Allah (swt) is found in the Quran, Hadith Qudsi & Narrations of our Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him). The words ‘whoever opposes…‘ are in the reciprocal form, meaning that the enmity if from both sides. This hadith describes how a person becomes beloved to Allah, all praises and glory be to Him, by purifying ourselves and our souls. After describing how no one should oppose His devoted servants, Allah, all praises and glory be to Him, goes on to describe the characteristics of a devoted servant. This, apparently, is because it poses a direct fatal threat to the survival of Sunni Islam as a whole! Unfortunately, many Muslims consider the ‘legal’ definition of makrooh (a disliked act) which states that it is an act that the person will be rewarded for avoiding and will not be punished for committing, and therefore consider it ‘permissible’ to engage in such acts. The Sunni position is the same as well. For wali (ولي) to mean ruler, it must be conjoined with amr. Anyone who claims that one can draw closer to Allah by means other than this, such as through other practices or the assistance of a pious person, is no different to the idol worshippers who claimed they were getting closer to Allah by worshipping their idols. Tidak ada taqarrubnya seorang hamba kepada-Ku yang lebih Aku cintai kecuali beribadah dengan apa yang telah Aku wajibkan atasnya. The leader of people is a guardian and is responsible for his subjects. And we seek refuge in Allah from beliefs that lead us astray. “My servant does not draw near to Me with anything more beloved to Me than the religious duties that I have imposed upon him.”. And similarly his statement “he is the wali of every believer after me”, it is a lie upon the Messenger of Allah. There is also a hadith by Imam Ali (عليه السلام) which says: "Islam is not [practiced] by the tongue rather [practiced] by the deeds". Please join me. The standard linguistic principle, of course, is that a synonym for wali al-amr is wali. The wali is the wali, and every person who is the wali of the amr of anyone, he is thereby the latter’s wali.29. This book is a consists of 40 Hadith Qudsi. The Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said: “The first deeds for which the slave of Allah will be held accountable for on the Day of Judgement will be his prayers. Usually, its exact definition in any given situation is dictated by its context. Look at what Allah al-Wali said to the Prophet ﷺ: “And be patient, [O Muhammad], for the decision of your Lord, for indeed, you are in Our eyes…” (Qur’an, 52:48) As for Umm Salamah her Wali was her son Salamah, as stated by Ibn Katheer in his book As-Seerah An-Nabawiyyah. Rather, the correct word is wali (والي). Not just one time, but over and over again. In reality though, this hadith is an argument against that concept, because it makes the distinction between the Creator Allah and the created wali. If we ask ourselves about the quality of performance of our obligatory prayers, how many of us could say that we have no shortcomings that need to be made up? Imam Ibn Jawzi (d. 597 H) submits: قوله تعالى) :الله ولي الذين آمنوا (أي: متولي أمورهم، يهديهم، وينصرهم، ويعينهم. Welayah is a word which a power gives authority/guardianship to a person, community, or country that is under the direction and rule on behalf of another. They do not grief or fear. Imam Jafar Sadiq (as) Says: From among you, who ever and where ever one says La ila ha illallah - Mohammadun Rasool Allah one should also say " Ali [as] is Amirul Momineen & wali Allah. “My servant continues to draw near to Me with supererogatory works so that I love him.”. Al-Mahalli (d. 864 H) and al-Suyuti (d. 911 H) in their Tafsir al-Jalalayn, mince no words about this: {he is their wali} [16:63] their ruler.15. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him said: “There are from the slaves of Allah people who, if they were to make an oath upon Allah, He would certainly fulfill it.” (Recorded in al-Bukhari), It is interesting to note that many of our pious predecessors often preferred to patiently bear the afflictions of this world, in the hope that they would receive the reward of Allah in the Hereafter. The remainder of the hadith also shows us that the wali comes to Allah to ask of Him – Why would they need to do that if they had become one with Him? This shows us that, by the mercy of Allah, perfection is not is prerequisite to be an auliyaa of Allah. But, the definite article (i.e. A wali (wali Arabic: وَلِيّ ‎, walīy; plural أَوْلِيَاء, ʾawliyāʾ), the Arabic word which has been variously translated "master", "authority", "custodian", "protector" and "friend", is most commonly used by Muslims to indicate an Islamic saint, otherwise referred to by the more literal "friend of God ". If they are in order, he will have prospered and been successful. Hadith 38 - Attaining Nearness to Allah and His Love - On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (ra) who said: > The Messenger of Allah (saw) said, “Verily Allah ta’ala has said: ‘Whosoever shows enmity to a wali (friend) of Mine, then I have declared war against him. What do you want from ‘Ali?

There there will be a mutual dislike for the actions of the other in each of these cases. Allah says in a hadith qudsi: “Whoever takes a Wali of Mine as an enemy, I will wage war on him…” (Bukhari) Would’nt you want to be one of these people? The hadith explanations are a summary of the Commentary on the Forty Hadith of An-Nawawi by Jamal al-Din Zarabozo, published in three volumes. During his stay at makkah Shah Wali Ullah saw a vision. We can see in the example of human beings, that a person becomes beloved to another by doing more than is required to assist them. This shows us that the auliyaa of Allah are not all of the same rank. 1, Book 6, Hadith 1569 - Grade: Sahih In Allah’s description, He points out two essential characteristics for anyone to be among the auliyaa of Allah. Abu Huraira was his kunya or nickname and it means the father of cats, after the pets that he so loved. This path is clear and easy to follow: 1) We must first purify our beliefs and cleanse ourselves of any shirk or associating partners with Allah. If there is some shortcoming in his obligatory, the Lord will say, ‘See if My slave has any voluntary prayers with which may be completed that which was wanting from the obligatory prayers’. guided Abu Huraira to an act that would ensure that he never forgot any of the hadith that he learnt, which was that at night, along with praying the late night prayer, he would study and memorise hadith. So, if the Messenger of Allah had intended ‘Ali, ‘alaihi al-salam, to be the ruler of the Muslims after him (as the Shi’ah assert), he would have used the second word, and not the first. Allah’s servants draw near to Him by performing the duties that He, all praises and glory be to Him, has obligated us to perform. If the believer first fulfills the foundations, they are demonstrating their willingness to submit to Allah, and this in turn earns His approval. But if they are wanting, he will have failed and been a loser. They argue that this hadith states that Allah is becoming one’s vision, hearing and so forth, so the person must be becoming one with Allah, and we seek refuge in Allah from beliefs such as that. This is why Abu Bakr is referred to as the wali al-amr of the Muslims after the death of the Prophet. wali of allah hadith. There are different levels of the Awliya based on their closeness to Allah. “Allah is the Wali (Protector and Supporter) of those who believe. He manages and disposes of things at his will based on his judgement. Were he to ask of Me, I would surely give him; and were he to ask Me for refuge, I would surely grant him it.” (Recorded in al-Bukhari). A person could become an auliyaa of Allah very quickly if they have sincerity and devotion to Allah. This does not mean that they do not fulfill their duty of enjoining the good and forbidding the evil, but it means they would not be tempted by the evil around them. In fact, it has been used in that sense in several places in the Qur’an! “There is a hadith reported in Muwatta Imam Malik (Kitab an-Nikah; Chapter: What was said in the dower and un-returnable gifts) and Sahih Bukhari (Kitab an-Nikah; Chapter of the woman who gives herself in marriage to salih man), which states that a woman came to Prophet Muhammad ﷺand said, ‘Messenger of Allah! As we can see from the hadith cited above, when a person strays into performing dislikes acts, they come nearer to committing forbidden acts. There are many verses in the Qur’an that talk about the concept of wilayah.These verses talk about the qualities or attributes of awliya’ and their status in the sight of Allah. The wali of the amr (or simply wali al-amr) of anyone is his ruler. But of them are some who wrong themselves and of them are some who are intermediate, and of them are some who outstrip others through their good deeds, by Allah’s leave.” (Surah Faatir:32). He was one of the first to promulgate an interpretation of Islamic thought in light of modern developments, using the concept of tatbiq as his main interpretative tool.
