Bigots’ Futile Attempts to Discredit Art

By Adnan Oktar
http://www.jeffersoncorner.com/bigots-futile-attempts-to-discredit-art/

Bigots take it on themselves to banish everything and every one that represents beauty and aesthetics. To be able to do that, they didn’t hesitate to forge fake hadiths shamelessly attributed to Prophet Mohammed (pbuh).

Through these false hadiths the fanatics make painting and sculpture unlawful for Muslims. Indeed, according to some fabricated hadiths, painters are regarded as among those who will suffer the worst torment in the hereafter. According to this perverse perspective, these people have attributed divinity to themselves, may God forbid, by imitating His creations. Yet what possible connection could there be between a painter or sculpture producing a work of art and claims of divine status? If a painter or a sculptor does make such a perverse claim, that can only be because of weakness of mind or soul, not because of the art he produces. And that is a possibility that applies to all people and all members of professions.

The people who will receive the severest punishment from God will be the picture makers. (Sahih Bukhari, Book 72, Hadith 834)

Whoever makes a picture will be punished by God till he puts life in it, and he will never be able to put life in it.

(Sahih Bukhari, Book 34, Hadith 428)

The most grievously tormented people on the Day of Resurrection would be the painters of pictures.

(Sahih Muslim, Book 24, Hadith 5270)

The painter of these pictures will be punished on the Day of Resurrection, and it will be said to them, “Make alive what you have created.”

(Sahih Bukhari, Book 93, Hadith 646)

The angels do not enter a house where there are pictures.

(Sahih Bukhari, Book 34, Hadith 318)

All the painters who make pictures would be in the fire of hell. The soul will be breathed in every picture prepared by him and it shall punish him in the hell.

(Sahih Muslim, Book 24, Hadith 5272)

All the beauties in nature are works of art made by our Almighty Lord. We realize how glorious art can be by looking at these works of our Lord’s. In fact, almost every technology present in the world has been developed by imitating God’s creation. The existence of things created is a blessing for technology. For example, people imitate birds and some species of fly created by God when manufacturing airplanes. Since these planes were inspired by living things, they possess perfect flying abilities and maneuverability. This is an advantage because there are already perfectly functioning models in nature. This is a gift bestowed by God as a blessing on all engineers.

Despite all the scientific advances that make our lives easier and more comfortable, today’s world of technology is simply a copy of these works of art in nature. God has created the models in nature and the technological copies of them as blessings for us.

The reason for the way that fanatics target the art of sculpture in particular actually lies in a tradition inherited from the past. In the past, when idol-worship was widespread, some rulers took measures against making statuettes in order to prevent people from worshiping idols. These measures, intended to avert potential dangers in these societies in the past, were literally propagated as a commandment of the faith, even though there is no such prohibition in the Qur’an. That is one of the worst pieces of damage caused by some people who prefer their traditions to the Qur’an.

We do not deprive ourselves of fire or the Sun just because Magians worship fire and other people worship the Sun, or we don’t kill cows just because Hindus have sacred cows so it is a genuinely primitive way of thinking to ban all statues just because there are some pagans who worship idols. What is wrong is to deify objects and other entities, and people who do that are those who commit unlawful deeds, not the objects themselves.

The arts of painting and sculpture that the fanatics prohibit for Muslims are most definitely not unlawful according to the Qur’an, the Book that is the guide for all Muslims. God loves art and causes His servants to love it; He has created the whole universe with art. There are no verses in the Qur’an that make fine arts such as painting and sculpture unlawful. On the contrary, works of art are praised in the Qur’an.

Statues and works of art praised as examples of majesty in the palace of the Prophet Solomon (pbuh) appear as follows in the Qur’an:

They made for him anything he wished: high arches and statues, huge dishes like cisterns, great built-in cooking vats. “Work, family of David, in thankfulness!” But very few of My servants are thankful.

(Surah Saba’, 13)

The fanatics who ban these arts – despite these verses of the Qur’an – need to say what they think about the Prophet Solomon (pbuh), who had extraordinarily lovely statues in his palace.

These peddlers of superstition have wreaked great damage on Islamic societies. The Islamic world never managed to develop after the spread of such superstition about sculpture and painting. Societies that cannot develop art remain frozen, soulless and atrophied; they are closed to novelty. They gradually lose their creativity, ability to think practically and understanding of detail. Coldness and lack of taste are reflected in the places where they live and the way in which they behave toward one another. As a result of their turning their backs on art, monotony, coldness and lack of taste, devoid of grace, predominate in the dark world of the fanatics.

Islam encourages personal hygiene, grooming and looking attractive

In the religion fabricated by the bigots, people, especially the women are expected to look their worst. Let alone putting on make-up and wear attractive clothes, they are banned from even carrying out the simple personal care tasks that would ensure a beautiful look. Some of the fabricated hadiths that ban using perfumes are as follows: 

The prayer of a woman who uses perfume for this mosque is not accepted until she returns and takes a bath like that of sexual intercourse (perfectly). (Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 33, Hadith 4162)

If a woman uses perfume and passes the people so that they may get its odour, she is so-and-so, meaning severe remarks. (Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 33, Hadith 4161)

If a woman wears perfume for anyone other than her husband, her prayer will not be accepted unless she washes that scent from her body as if washing off sexual intercourse." (Man La Yahzaruhul Faqih, v. 3, p. 440)

Using perfume for other than one’s husband brings a woman shame and fire (of hell). (Nahj al-Fasaha, 2382) 

Fabricated Hadiths that Prohibit Tattoos, Removal of Facial Hair, Esthetic Dental Work

God has cursed those women who practice tattooing and those who get themselves tattooed, and those who remove their face hairs, and those who create a space between their teeth artificially to look beautiful. (Sahih Bukhari, Book 72, Hadith 815)

Fabricated Hadiths that Prohibit Wigs, Eyebrow Plucking, Tattoos

God has cursed such a lady as lengthens (her or someone else's) hair artificially or gets it lengthened, and also a lady who tattoos (herself or someone else) or gets herself tattooed. (Sahih Bukhari, Book 72, Hadith 820)

The Messenger of God (pbuh) cursed the woman who does tattoos and the one who has them done, and those who pluck their eyebrows. (Sunan Ibn Majah, Chapter 11, Hadith 1989)

Fabricated Hadiths that Prohibit Women from Going out of Doors in Attractive Clothes

The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: “O Fatimah! The angels of the seven heavens and the seven earths curse the woman who decorates herself, dresses up and goes out of her house so that men may admire her beauty. She becomes the target of Divine wrath when she is alive. When she dies it is ordered that she be thrown into hell.” (Shahabul Akhbar, Dastaan-e-zanaan, p. 11)

Imam al-Sadiq: "For someone to be brought low and disgraced, it is enough to wear clothes that will spread their fame (in such a way as to attract people’s attention and cause them to point that person out)." (Bihar al-Anwar, Vol.78, p. 252)

Hazrat Ali: "Wear thick clothing (that does not reveal the body) because people who wear thin clothing also possess thin (weak) faith." (Bihar al-Anwar, Vol.79, p. 298)

The Messenger of God (pbuh) forbade women to wear clothes that would attract people’s attention and from wearing accessories that make noise when they went out. (Mustadrak al-Wasail, Vol.14, p. 280)

Fabricated Hadiths that Maintain that Women Lose Paradise by Preoccupying Themselves with Gold and Clothes

I looked into paradise and the minority of its inhabitants were women. So I asked, “Where are the women?” And I was told, “They are preoccupied with two red things: gold, and saffron,” meaning jewelry and dyestuff for clothes.

Fabricated Hadiths that Maintain that Women Should not be Given Nice Clothes

Help women by not giving them nice clothes to wear.

The reason for quoting all these fabricated hadiths is to be able to show how women are despised in the religion of the peddlers of superstition, and how they are regarded as foolish, lacking in character and generally irrelevant. These commands, which appear nowhere in the Qur’an, are depicted by way of these false hadiths as if they were a part of the faith. In this way, not only is female beauty done away with, a model of society in which their wisdom and character is also taken away is thus described. From then on, the lives of those who are already frozen, soulless and loveless become increasingly more atrophied.

When female beauty, one of the greatest blessings of this world, is done away with, both their own souls and their idea of society sink to the bottom. As we have discussed in detail in preceding sections, by disregarding women’s minds and ignoring the ideas of women who are capable of sharp and detailed thinking, capable of taking precautions and with a much wider understanding than that of men in a great many regards, the societies in question are deprived of many benefits. The most disturbing thing is that women in these societies also believe in this false religion and see nothing wrong with regarding themselves as inferior. The women in question have become used to looking no different to men and being exceedingly ill-groomed, to having no opinions on anything, to being ignorant and leaving all decisions to men and generally submitting to men.

The fact is, however, as we have already seen, that God refers in verses to those who render adornments and nice things unlawful. Such people behave in contravention of the Qur’an:

Say: “Who has forbidden the ornament of God which He has produced for His servants and the good kinds of provision?” Say: “They are, in the life of this world, for those who believe, (and) purely for them on the Day of Resurrection.” In this way We make the signs clear for people who know. (Surat al-A’raf, 32)

As we have already seen in detail, women are delightful and valuable in the view of the Qur’an; female beauty is a blessing. Female intelligence can lead societies to very broad horizons. God has bestowed all these beautiful attributes on women; He praises them and protects them. These fraudulent statements in the fabricated hadiths above are completely rejected by the Qur’an.

It must not be forgotten that the people who try to ban beauty and the blessings beloved of God are fanatics. It is therefore a very great mistake to condemn those who think that the world of the fanatics is the true one and thus criticize the true Islam out of this ignorance. The people who really abide by the Qur’an are those who know that beauty and adornment are blessings from God, not those who want to ban them.

Our Prophet (pbuh) was very handsome and majestic. These people are drawing themselves in their cartoons

- Daily Cumhuriyet will publish an addition of the assumed caricatures of our Prophet (pbuh) tomorrow in support of Charlie Hebdo magazine. Since this will cause various provocations Cumhuriyet Daily was called not to publish these.

Adnan Oktar: For one thing, that is not a picture of our Prophet (pbuh). The artist has sat down at the mirror and very carefully drawn a picture of himself. I fail to understand where they get the idea it is a picture of our Prophet. If someone sits at a mirror and makes a drawing, the result will be just like a photograph. That person has just drawn himself, in very great detail. That picture has nothing to do with our Prophet.

Our Prophet (pbuh) was super-handsome. He was tall, majestic and broad-shouldered. He had black, arched eyebrows. He had a broad mouth and bright, white teeth. The hadiths refer to those teeth saying, ‘people looking from a distance could see them shining brightly. His teeth were pearly white. His hands were large and his shoulders were broad. The most famous wrestler of the day who was a heavyweight wrestler told our Prophet, ‘If you can beat me, I will believe.’ And our Prophet promptly laid him flat on his back. The wrestler complained that he was not ready. Our Prophet laid him flat on his back once again. There was nothing more to be said. Our Prophet was very strong. He personally took part in battles. The hadiths say that ‘He had the strength of 40 young men.’ Masha’Allah.

My forebear was terribly handsome. Women who saw him immediately fell in love with him and wanted to marry him. When the situation began becoming unwieldy, Almighty God put a stop to our Prophet getting married. However, He made lawful those women who want to give themselves to the Prophet. He made concubines and the like lawful. But He tells him not to get wives beyond these. Our Prophet used to decide to get married very quickly. The Companions say there is a beautiful woman and the Prophet (pbuh) takes a look and says it is all done when he wishes to marry.

My forebear was a real lion. The hypocrites were wracked by envy of his good looks. There are many verses about that. Their envy drove them crazy. Because they were all weak and feeble types. The Messenger of God was very powerful, masha’Allah. May God keep him strong for all time.

These were the things they were most envious of. Their envy drove them crazy. I will talk about the verses on the subject another day. The only thing they envied in our Prophet was his good looks and strength. All women would fall in love with him at a single glance. The wife of his adopted son also fell in love with our Prophet. God sent verses down about this and revealed that he should not conceal this situation that was already known to God. Our Prophet held out against that love right to the end. But Almighty God sent a verse down and said that God knew his and her hearts, and that he could marry her. That drove the hypocrites crazy. The bigots never mention that verse. They do not like reading these verses at all.

These verses are about our Prophet’s (pbuh) irresistible good looks. Some bigots are embarrassed by these verses. But I am proud of my forebear. Well done to him. I congratulate my mother, as well, for loving such a handsome man as by ancestor. She was quite right. She fell in love with our Prophet’s mind, his faith, his grandeur and his good looks. She was quite right about them all. He constantly told Hazrat Zayd (his adopted son) not to divorce until revelation came from Almighty God. But when the revelation came, there is nothing else to do.

Many bigots are reluctant to discuss this or to broach the subject at all. One well-known bigot said that these verses embarrassed him, saying, ‘If we criticize Christians, they will reply with these verses.’ Look how foolish that is. He is ashamed of these verses. Look at their interpretation of the verses we most esteem is very different. These people are all very feeble types.

Jokes and Funs by Prophet Muhammad (SAAS)

Makup

"Allah is the One Who puts make up on women, Allah is the One Who creates make up. Allah is the One Who puts kohl on their eyes. Consequently ladies should be beautiful. Then they would feel a greater confidence and happiness. They present a greater beauty to their surroundings. They would serve in the Path of Allah even better. Their power of compiling would be much better. Otherwise they would be disheartened."

Ahl al-Bayt (People of the House) were martyred by radicals because of their modernity and valuing women

Ahl al-Bayt (People of the House) were martyred by radicals because of their modernity and valuing women (05.06.2014)

Ahl al-Bayt (People of the House) were martyred by radicals because of their modernity and valuing women

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated June 05th, 2014

Hassan and Hussein, my dear ones, were very extroverted and joyful. Hz. Ali was also very affable and they were all ultramodern.

The reason why radicals martyred them was because they were not radicals like themselves, and did not approve of that radicalism.

They also did not  follow our Prophet (pbuh) and those hypocrites founded the Masjid al-Dirar (Mosque of Mischief).

The only reason why Ahl al-Bayt (People of the House) were martyred was their modernity, love for women and advocacy for freedoms of women, holding women to be greater and in high esteem, being stylish and clean, smelling nicely with beautiful fragrance, conversing with jokes and compliments, having love for all of humanity and compassion to people of other faiths, acting with courtesy and a classy attitude, all of which made the radicals angry.

On that account, those villains martyred them all. And it is the same dishonorable ones and that satan that have generated the same radicals appearing 1,400 years later again. These radicals are from the same family and if they were to see Hz. Hassan and Hz. Hussein  in our day, they would again martyr them. It is the radicals of this century that would martyr Hz. Ali once again.

They seem to have love for our Prophet (pbuh), but in their heart they have hatred, may God forbid.

And they state, ‘We bear witness that you are indeed the Messenger of God.’ Yet, God informs us, ‘God knows that you are indeed His Messenger and God bears witness that the hypocrites are certainly liars.’ Radicals are liars, and they try to turn life into filth. For instance, they make women have the most repulsive appearance. They attain the most appalling form; their eating, sitting, standing, all are abhorrent.

The Messenger of God  was a classy person, and everything about him was of quality.

-          You look like very much like him in that respect.

Masha’Allah, the grandson looks like the grandfather, insha’Allah.

Our Prophet (pbuh) had great love for women and he has mentioned this persistently in the hadiths.

Hz. Hassan and Hz. Hussein were together with the Companions and they were addressing the Prophet, saying all the young women were in love with Hz. Hassan  and Hz. Hussein. They said women were getting married with them, and none would be remaining for them, so what should they do. Our Prophet said they resembled their grandfather. Masha’Allah, alhamdulillah; what a beautiful statement, that girls would like to get married to them all the time.

When they went out to Mecca and Medina, everyone is fascinated, masha’Allah. Hz. Hassan and Hz. Hussein are breathtakingly handsome, pure and appealing with their eyes. Some have black or green eyes, for instance, Hz. Ali has  green eyes, insha’Allah.

But the mindset of radicals did not change throughout history, Hz. Ali is beautiful just like the Prophet Joseph (pbuh,) who is from the lineage of the Prophet David (pbuh), insha’Allah.

That beauty of those eyes has passed from generation to generation. And the beautiful eyes of the Prophet (pbuh) are from the Prophet Abraham (pbuh). They say the Prophet has exactly the same appearance with the Prophet Abraham with his black eyes, slight protrusion on the nose, well-built body and wide shoulders, strong arms and bones.

Our Prophet (saas) loved women as a manifestation of Allah

Our Prophet (saas) loved women as a manifestation of Allah

“Our Prophet (saas) loved women as a manifestation of Allah”

Our Prophet (saas) liked women. There is no need for bigotry. They are so bigoted. It is delightful that our prophet (saas) liked women. In paradise Allah will give houris to our Prophet (saas) and to Muslims and they will delight in their houris. What is surprising about that? Why does Allah create houris. He creates them for us to delight in. Why does He create women? He creates them for us to delight in. He creates them so we can love and delight in those whom it is lawful to do so. But then there is this totally unloving mentality that crops up when women are mentioned. The meaning of loving women is to love them as manifestations of Allah. It is to admire Him. To value them. Some people have a most primitive mentality and regard them simply as objects of lust because there is no love in their hearts. No compassion and no fine feelings. All they have is lust, so that is the first thing that comes to their minds when women are mentioned. This is very wrong. They must correct that mindset.

“The meaning of delighting in women is to love them as manifestations of Allah, to value them”

When someone says that he loves a woman, or that he loves a flower, he loves a manifestation of Allah, that is his love of Allah. When one says that the Prophet (saas) liked woman, does that mean simple lust? No. What it means is that he loved them as a manifestation of Allah, he saw Allah’s name of Jamal in them. He saw Allah’s name of Latif. He saw the names Rahman and Rahim. His heart was eased. Allah says that He creates spouses as sources of comfort and ease for one another. It does not mean lust. It is the manifestation of Allah there, the peace bestowed by the mutual repetition of the name of Allah, peace and comfort. But these people are terrified by the way that our Prophet (saas) delighted in women. Yet there are trustworthy hadiths on it. Our Prophet (saas) says, “I love women,” and he says, “I have been made to love three things; prayer, the light of my eyes, lovely perfume and honest women.” Look, “...honest women.” People fail to understand the beauty of this, and that stems from their failure to understand the Qur’an and the spirit of Islam. (Adnan Oktar,  January 26^th, 2013, A9 TV)

The world will turn into the Heaven

First God shows us troubles and evil thoroughly; later on He will show us pureness, superiority and beauty. At the moment the world is a living hell. A little later, the world will turn into the Heaven.

(A9 TV; May 2nd, 2014)

Hereafter would be a complete surprise for Muslims

New Statements by Mr. Adnan Oktar (12 April 2014)

Almighty God gives us some details about the Hereafter but He prepared the Hereafter in a way that would be a complete surprise for Muslims.  

God says, “Every self will come together with a driver and a witness.” [Surah Qaf; 21]   Clearly there is a vehicle; it might be a small vehicle or a big beautiful vehicle and there are hosts on both sides of Muslims and there is a light for them both in front of them and beside them. God knows the truth this is a kind of vehicle; that is because God mentions a vehicle that operates on its own in the Qur’an. There is a vehicle that goes on its own, there are hosts inside that vehicle and there are headlights that enlightens the darkness and it moves forward. God says that they will come with those vehicles. Muslims definitely go to Heaven if they find themselves in such a condition. In the Qur’an, God says that they strongly hope for the Heaven. We might come across vehicles similar to those we have in this world or more advanced ones. We might find ultra-modern cities there; that is because God shows that to us, God shows them fruits and they say, “We’ve seen similar ones before.” That is the same with the houses of Heaven; we would say that we’ve seen similar ones before but the quality will be incomparable. There is an amazing trial going on in this world. 

God has adorned the whole universe

God has adorned the whole universe (28.03.2014)

God has adorned the whole universe

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated March  28th, 2014

God adorns flowers, and we like them. He adorns insects, and we like them. He adorns babies, and we like them. He adorns human beings, and we like them, masha’Allah. I looked at those thorns as I came in from the garden. They are getting ready to bloom. They have opened in the form of three buds. When fully open they are read and exquisite. Their leaves are bright. But toward the end of summer they fade of course. Almighty God creates them to be beautiful, but they are all mortal and finite.

Violets are also lovely when they first bloom. One cannot bear to cut them. But then they fade and die. However, there is no death in paradise. Neither flowers die in paradise, nor fruits, nor leaves. When fruits are plucked they still remain just where they were. You pick one and it is replaced right away in the same place. One cannot bear to pick them. For example there was a lemon tree in the garden, full of lemons. For a long time we never picked them. Lemon trees have their own life span, of course, and we wanted to pick them. Go and pick those lemons, I said. But of course that troubles the heart. One will not be able to see lemons on those branches for a long time. But that is not the case in paradise. You pick them and they regrow instantaneously, masha’Allah. All beauties belong to our Lord, praise be to God.

Muslims prefer beauty, but also seek wisdom in ugliness

Muslims prefer beauty, but also seek wisdom in ugliness (05.04.2014)

Muslims prefer beauty, but also seek wisdom in ugliness

Excerpt from Mr. Adnan Oktar's Live Conversation on A9TV dated March  05th, 2014

(Viewer’s letter) I heard you say, "All beauty and blessings belong to God. All praise is for the name of God.” Do ugly things not belong to God, too? 

What right have we to call what God has created beautiful or ugly? Not at all. God teaches us the concepts of beauty and ugliness in the Qur’an. God tells us to avoid ugliness. He tells us to avoid filth. The concept of beauty is stressed in hundreds of places in the Qur’an. We cannot develop our own ideas against the Qur’an. But God’s beauty is also present in what is ugly. A hyena is ugly, but one feels sorry for it. Its ugliness is comical. Or there may be an ugly person, but you feel affection and compassion for them. You love that person many times more because of their moral virtues than you do someone with an attractive face but no moral values. There are many people who are ugly but morally beautiful. And there are people who are attractive but who are arrogant proud, difficult and morally impaired. People will not like that attractive person. They like people who are good natured despite being ugly. Our view is mistaken. 

Believers must see ugliness and beauty and prefer beauty, but look for the wisdom in ugliness. You can say a work of art is ugly when you examine it. Indeed, beauty emerges from the concepts of beauty and ugliness. Beauty emerges from that comparison. Beauty emerges when comparing someone we call beautiful to someone we call ugly. But there is no ugliness in paradise. Ugliness is created solely for the test in this world. Everything is beautiful in paradise. Tree, plants, children and foods are all lovely. But there are also ugly foods in this world, and ugly people. But human beings have the advantage of being able to convert ugliness into beauty through their moral values. They can become radiant and much-loved people. You see such people around you.

The Qur’an reveals that men and women can be present together in society

The Qur’an reveals that men and women can be present together in society (03.11.2013)

The Qur’an reveals that men and women can be present together in society

From Mr. Adnan Oktar’s interview on A9 TV on 3 November 2013

ADNAN OKTAR: Women are given their rights. That was done for colored people at one time. We allow them to get on busses. We let them stand for election. That kind of thing. This should all have been resolved a long time ago. These disgraces should be quietly put right and closed. I am ashamed of this. It is so wrong. “We have done women a favor,” they say. “I am giving you permission to wear trousers.” Then she says, “Thank you so much. I am very happy.” Men say this, as if they are granting a favor. “We are giving you the right to stand for election,” they say, and women duly rejoice. This is very wrong. This should have been done away with long ago. The history of the world is filled with this error. There was an intensive struggle against it in the time of our Prophet (pbuh). Muslims were learning for the first time then that they could eat together. Jews used to have men’s and women’s sections. Polytheists had men’s and women’s sections and areas. They all ate separately. Christians kept men and women separate. Sabaeans kept men and women separated. God says in one verse that they can eat together. Muslim men and women then ate together for the first time. They went on the pilgrimage [hajj] together for the first time, in line with their natures. Men and women are together everywhere in the Qur’an. Angels came to the wife of the Prophet Abraham (pbuh). But she did not realize they were angels and happily talked and laughed and joked with them. She even laughed out loud. The Prophet Moses (pbuh) spoke with women. Our Prophet (pbuh) looked at women and liked them. Had your model applied, my brother, the Prophet  could never have seen women and liked them. So they moved around in such a way as to be liked. And he looked at and liked them. As it says in one verse, “even though their beauty might be pleasing to you,..” (33/52). It is not talking about the color of their clothing here, is it? Our Prophet likes the women, not their clothing. There is nothing hard to understand about this. They have invented a religion of their own and are trying to live by that. They are pretending not to understand.

لَّا يَحِلُّ لَكَ النِّسَاءُ مِن بَعْدُ وَلَا أَن تَبَدَّلَ بِهِنَّ مِنْ أَزْوَاجٍ وَلَوْ أَعْجَبَكَ حُسْنُهُنَّ إِلَّا مَا مَلَكَتْ يَمِينُكَ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ رَّقِيبًا

Not lawful to you, [O Muhammad], are [any additional] women after [this], nor [is it] for you to exchange them for [other] wives, even if their beauty were to please you, except what your right hand possesses. And ever is Allah , over all things, an Observer. Surat Al-'Aĥzāb (The Combined Forces) - 52

Time of the Companions

Adnan Oktar: God wants the final period to be like the time of the Companions of our Prophet (saas). God does not want a period of time in which women are oppressed, in which life lacks quality, arts, aesthetics and beauty.

(A9 TV; January 18th, 2014)

Muslims look for difficulty when there is so much that is lawful and easy

Muslims look for difficulty when there is so much that is lawful and easy (07.10.2013)

Some bigots are using above picture to prove that wearing scarf or head covering similar to hump of camel is Haram act in Shariah. They are using following Ahdith wrongly to prove that these women will not enter in Paradise....

Sahih Muslim Hadith 5310     Narrated by Abu Hurayrah

Allah's Messenger (saws) said: ‘Two are the types of the denizens of Hell whom I did not see: people having flogs like the tails of the ox with them and they would be beating people, and the women who would be dressed but appear to be naked, who would be inclined (to evil) and make others incline towards it. Their heads would be like the humps of the bukht camel inclined to one side. They will not enter Paradise and they would not smell its odor whereas it odor would be smelt from such and such distance (from great distance).’

Sahih Muslim Hadith 6840     Narrated by Abu Hurayrah

Allah's Messenger (saws) said: ‘There are two types, amongst the denizens of Hell, I have yet not seen them. One possessing whips like the tail of an ox and they flog people with them.(The second one) the women who would be naked in spite of their being dressed, who are seduced (to wrong paths) and seduce others with their hair high like humps. These women would not get into Paradise and they would not perceive the odor of Paradise, although its fragrance can be perceived from such and such distance (from great distance).’

If we read these Ahdith after excluding hatred towards women from heart then it is clear that these Ahdith are pointing those prostitute women who seduce men for adultery or material using their wrong actions while wearing full cloths. These women are inclined to one side like humps of camel for material and lust, who forget God and His religion, and who destroy families and societies.

Bigots, who are using above picture for chaste women who observe scarf or not, are violating verses 23 and 24 of Surat An-Nūr (The Light) of Holy Quran...

Verily, those who accuse chaste women, who never even think of anything touching their chastity and are good believers, are cursed in this life and in the Hereafter, and for them will be a great torment,

On the Day when their tongues, their hands, and their legs or feet will bear witness against them as to what they used to do. [24:23-24]

Mawlana Shaykh Nazims Sobah on how to be beautiful in the sight of Allah

"We have certainly created the human being in the best of stature" (Qur'an, 95:4)

Salaam Mawlana Shaykh Nazims Sobah on how to be beautiful in the sight of Allah.. 

"I have created the sons of Adam to be beautiful. Shaytan was jealous and wanted that beauty. Allah says, 'I gave this beauty to Adam. I gave it to all the prophets. Each prophet is more beautiful than the next. The most beautiful of all is our beloved Prophet, sallāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam.' Of all of them, the most beautiful is Habībullāh. May my soul be ransomed for Habībullāh. O glorious Prophet, O glorious Prophet, there is no prophet in heaven or earth who will not raise your banner.. He is the most beautiful of all, O illustrious Prophet. Fill our hearts with love and longing. O beloved friends, it is his actions, his state and demeanor that make a him beautiful. Run after beauty! Run to be beautiful, says our Lord Almighty, Allah. Our Lord, may His Glory be exalted, spoke: 'I have created, He said, I have created the most beautiful, My Beloved. Try to be like him. Try to be beautiful as he is. Shaytan is ugly. I have created Adam in beauty. I love what is beautiful.' You are Subhān, O Lord. Let us unfold. May our strength, our power be increased.

All 124.000 prophets were beautiful, each one more beautiful than the other. O most Generous, Munificent Lord, O King who possesses and bestows Power, our Lord says: "I will not suffer the ugly one in My Presence. I will admit only beautiful ones to My Presence." Shaytan is ugly. He drove him away. All 124.000 prophets are one more beautiful than the next. Mā shā' Allāhu kān. Allāh Allāh Allāh. Strive to follow them." Al Fatiha
