Eid Mubahela - 24th with Hujjah
Letter of invitation to Christians of Najran:
Prophet of Islam (s) wrote a letter to Ibne Abdul Haris Alqamah, Bishop major in Najran, who was the official representative of the Romanian Church in the Hijaz. He called on people in the region to embrace Islam. The text message also works under:
In the name of the Lord to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob
This is the message of Muhammad, the Prophet, the Messenger of Allah to the Bishop of Najran: I praise and glorify the Lord of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and I invite you all to the worship of God rather than worship of his creatures, so that you may come out of the guardianship of God's creatures, and held under the tutelage of God himself. In case you do not accept my invitation to be (at least) the payment of tribute (tribute) to the Islamic government (instead of, which will protect life and your property), otherwise you are here warned of serious consequences.
Muhammad (S), and says to his followers of the Bible, and said, "We must come for a year: 'Let us worship none but Allah"
(Qur'an, Surat Al-e-Imran (3), verse 64)
And blessings of Allaah be upon him and goes Mubahela
Closely in the ninth year of immigration, embassies from all over Arabia came without interruption of the Holy Prophet in Medina, and convert to Islam, and the Declaration of commitment to their tribes to Prophet Muhammad (S). (Mentioned in the Koran as set out below on this in Surat Al-Nasr (Aoun, Divine support)
When there comes God's help and victory, and saw the men entering the religion of Allah in companies, then celebrate the praises of your Lord and ask His forgiveness; certainly He often returning (to mercy).
(Qur'an, Sura victory over the (110), verses 1-3
So far, the Christians of Najran (city in the province of Yemen) had kept herself away. The Holy Prophet (PBUH) sent a letter, inviting them to embrace Islam. In response to that letter and advised the Christians themselves, the course of their work and did eventually send a representative assignment of fourteen members to Medina to study the facts relating to Hazrat Mohammad (PBUH) and his mission. Three Christian scholars, viz. Abdel Massih Aaquib, Saiyed and Abdul Haris, headed by the mandate.
When deputies reached the city, and changed their clothes, which was worn in flight, in and of themselves dressed in silk, and the development of gold rings on their fingers, and went to the mosque to receive the Holy Prophet (S). All received the blessings of Allaah be upon him traditionally, but the Messenger of Allah (r) did not respond, and turned his face away from them.
Left the mosque and approached Osman and Abdul Rahman bin Auf, complaining "your Apostle wrote to us and called us, but when we went to see him and wished him, and he has not reciprocated our wishes nor replied to us, and now what do you think we should do? Do we need to return or wait for the opportunity other? "Othman Abdul Rahman can not understand this situation. In the past taken disputes to Ali (AS), who advised them to remove the silk dresses and rings of gold that they were wearing, and put on their clerical robes. The Holy Prophet (S) would see them after that willingly.
Delegates to this Christian dressing modest and presented themselves to the Prophet (S) and those who responded to their greetings and said, "of the Lord, who was appointed by His Messenger, when I first came to me that they were accompanied by the devil."
After that the Prophet (S) advocated by and asked her to accept Islam. They asked: "What do you think of Jesus Christ?" Prophet (S) said: "You may rest today in this city, and after that you will receive replies to retrieve all your questions to me."
Messenger was waiting for revelation in this matter, on the day following verses from the Quran Sura No.3 (Al-e-Imran) verses 59-60 have revealed him to show the real attitude of Jesus Christ.
To be sure that Jesus is the likeness with God as the likeness of Adam, He created him from dust, then said to him: Be ', and it was. (This is) the truth from your Lord, so be not of Disputers.
(Qur'an, Surat Al-Imran, i (3), verses 59-60)
When it reappeared before the Holy Prophet (S), and the Holy Prophet (S), read out the verses above, before the Christians, adding that the visit of Jesus Christ was a prophet like Adam (AS) such as Adam (A), which was created from the dust, and therefore can not be to be the Son of God. After this, he called the Holy Prophet (S) of them to convert to Islam. Christians remained obstinate and refused to be convinced by anything. Then I got the following verse 61 of Sura No.3:
But whatever the disputes with you in this matter after what has come to you of knowledge, then say: let us call our sons and your sons and our women and your women, ourselves and yourselves, then let us be earnest in prayer, and invoked God's curse on liars.
(Qur'an, Surat Al-Imran, i (3), verse 61)
Now the Holy Prophet (S) is reproduced in the verse before the deputation of the Christians and declared the challenge of 'Mubahala'. The term 'Mubahala' is derived from the Arabic root 'Bahlah' meaning 'curse'. Thus, the word 'Mubahala' literally means cursing each other. Consult each other Christians, and eventually declared its acceptance of this challenge.
Early the next morning the Holy Prophet (S) Posted bin Salman the Persian (a) to a place, fixed outside the city for this historic event, for a small shelter for himself and those he intended to take him to participate in the competition. However, it was on the morning of Zilhajj 24th to the Holy Prophet (a) appeared in the time and place, from his headquarters with the holy Imam Hussein (AS) in his arms and held the Imam Hassan (AS) 's hand, and the Rev. - e-Fatima (A), followed by Imam Ali (AS) (such as sacred as Panjetan). The Holy Prophet (S) and then went to them that the word "Amen" when praying to God.
No sooner had the convoy of the Holy Prophet Mohammad (S) appears in front of a group opposed to the Christians of Najran, and then they were awestruck and spellbound. Abdul Haris lbne Alqamah, and the greatest the world among them, addressed his people:
"I see the divine light on the face of our fighters, I am beholding such faces among them as can make it move mountains from their place if they pray to God. Beware! Never try to compete with them, otherwise you will die and the entire nation of Christians will succumb to extinction! "
Then the Holy Prophet (S) again, "By Allah! Even though the Christians of Najran contested with us, it turned into monkeys and swans. Fire would be poured on them from heaven, and it could be fate."
When he declined to Christians 'Mubahala', the Holy Prophet (s) before them two options: either convert to Islam or be ready to come to terms. But Christians will not agree on this issue to decide in the end accepted an offer from the treaty of their own. Thus was the signing of the Treaty of Peace and in accordance with the requirements of the Christians of Najran would thereby be committed to pay the Holy Prophet (S) annual tribute, consisting of two thousand costumes worth: forty thousand Dinars, thirty horses, camels, thirty, thirty-thirty shields and spears. (Ref: Meraj, the United Nations and Nabuwat)
Authentic evidence is given below with regard to the verses from the Koran, Sura 3 verse 61, as contained in page 73 Imam Fakhruddin Razi in his Tafseer Kabir, e (Volume 2): "When this verse was revealed in the Holy Prophet (S), and the Christians of Najran accepted the challenge of 'Mubahala' and the Holy Prophet took with him Imam Hussein, Imam Hasan, Janab - e-Fatima and Imam Ali in the field of Mubahala. "
In the words of the mark in his Zamakhshari 'interpretation Scouts - e'. "There can be no more authentic and more powerful evidence for the safety of the owners of clothing, e, ie, Imam Ali (AS), Rev. - e-Fatima (AS), Imam Hassan (AS) and Imam Hussein (p) of this verse. For compliance to the command of God and the Holy Prophet (S) has summoned the people of Beit-ul-(A), took Hussain (AS) in his arms, and realized the Imam Hassan (AS) 's hand in his own, asked Janab - e-Fatima (a) to follow suit, Imam Ali (AS) to follow her, and this proves that the people of Jerusalem, Beit-ul (a) of those who verse was directed. "
It is related by Soad Ibne Waqas that: "When this verse was revealed, the Prophet (S) for the creation of Hazrat Ali (AS), Rev. - e-Fatima (AS), Imam Hassan (AS) and Imam Hussein (AS) and blessings of Allaah be like this: "Oh my God! This is the very inhabitants of the House May of mine! "(Sahih Muslim, vol 1, and Saheeh al-Tirmidhi).
Abdullah Ibne Umar quotes the Holy Prophet (S) has commented:
"If there was any spirit of the whole earth better than Ali (AS) and Fatima (A), and Hassan (AS) and Hussain (AS), would that God had told me to take them with me that 'Mubahala.' But, as was superior in dignity and respect for all human beings, and God is limited to the selection of the them only to participate in the 'Mubahala'. " (Interpretation - electronic Baizavi)
According to some versions, that on the morning of Zilhajj 24th, a large number of people thronged the door of the Holy Prophet (S), and expected every one his chance to be selected for the team of 'Mubahala'. But when the Holy Prophet (S) out of his house, accompanied by the people of Beit-ul (p). They were all stunned.
Mubahala important event for the following reasons:
1. Has proved to be a lesson to silence all Arab Christians who no longer dare any competition with the Holy Prophet (S).
2. At the invitation of 'Mubahala' was directed by God, and it was in compliance with the Holy Prophet ordered him to take the people of Beit-ul (p) with him to the field of 'Mubahala'. This circular serves how matters relating to the Apostleship and religion are determined, God willing; allow any margin for intervention by the general public (Ummat). The issue of Imam Ali (AS) 's succession, followed by ten Imam (p) s for the position of religious leadership should be viewed from this perspective.
3. And dispensing from Imam Ali (AS), Rev. - e-Fatima (A), can be of Imam Hassan (AS) and Imam Hussein (PBUH) to follow the teachings of the Holy Prophet (r) can no longer be disputed.
4. That, in spite of their childhood, Imam Hassan (AS) and Imam Hussein (AS) did not, however, serve as active partners of the Holy Prophet (S) in the field 'Mubahala'. This yields the conclusion that age is no criteria for greatness infallibles (Masoomeen). They are born decorated virtues and knowledge.
5. That the Holy Prophet, who prefers to work from a small number of clearly raise the status above all others.
It also emerged victorious against Islam and Christianity on the occasion of 'Mubahala', it is assumed in this day of importance in the day of Eid in Islamic history.
Why did Imam Ali (AS) included?
Almighty is His Messenger to say to the delegation of Najran: "Come on! We will summon our sons and your sons and our women and your women, and ourselves and yourselves ...."
To comply with this command, bringing with him the Prophet, Hasan and Al-Hussein, because they are sons of his daughter Fatima, and this because they are his sons. Fatima he brought with him to women they represent one of the members of the House of Representatives. But why was carrying with him Imam Ali peace be upon him, who was not of the children and women?
Imam Ali (AS) has no place in the verse is not included in the word "ourselves."
Made Imam Ali (AS) refers to him that the Messenger of Allah (r) consider Imam Ali (AS) is an extension of his personality. By looking at him so, the height of his over all Muslims.
Messenger (SA) said on numerous occasions:
"On me and I am him."
Hubshi Janadah son said that he heard the Messenger of Allah, saying:
"On me and I am him, and no one represents me, but Ali."
