[naqshbandi1]

Assalaamu aleikum.


_{I was trying to post a question to the Imam Sahib , but dont know how, so i thiught i'll InshaAllah post question here for a reply, and then if no one has the answer ( InshaAllah some one will ), if a moderator could post to the Imam Sahib on my behalf? Jazakallah.}



Theres a Hadith Mubarak that someone wanted to know about, which i gave to them with references, but now some other people are asking for the page number etc.

The book is Tarikh Al-Kabir ( The Great History ) By Imam Bukhari Radhi Alaa Talaa Anhu. I diont know the page number or volume number if i could have help from my MashaAllah Brothers And Sisters.

The Hadith Mubarak is:

Hazrat Abu Hurayrah Radhi Alaa Talaa Anhu has narrated:
The Noble Prophet (Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam) ( Sayyiddonna Hazrat Muhammed Musthafa Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam ) once asked Jibreel ( alihi Salaam ):
''How old are you?''

Jibreel ( alihi Salaam ) replied, ''I dont have much recollection about the exact age. However, I do remember seeing a Star in ( meaning behind ) the fourth hijab ( veil) of honour. That star would appear once every seventy thousand years, and i have seen the star seventy two thousand times.''

Upon hearing this, The Noble Prophet (Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam) (Sayyiddonna Hazrat Muhammed Musthafa Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam )replied:
''I swear by the Honour of my Allah Jalla-jalaluhu That Star Was Me.''
( Imam Bukari in Tarikh ul-kabir, Imam un Nubhani in Jawahirul -nihar, Imam Ismail al- Haqqi in Tafsir Ruhul Bayan)

This is how i added the above Hadith Mubarak , the people who are asking for the Refernce and page Number know this Hadith Mubarak is also found in Seerah Halabiyah.


If i could be helped .


Jazakallah.



Fiamanillah.


Assalaamu Aleikum.

All Praise be to Allah who is the Lord of the Worlds, and may Endless Blessings be showered upon His Most Beloved, and Final Messenger of Islam, Hadrat Muhammad Mustafa Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa 'aalihi wa Sallam

This hadith appears in the books you have mentioned and I have found some references for it, although I will try and find the others, as I have a limited set of resources, however, it was found in

Sirat-e-Halbiyyah, 'Allamah 'Ali bin Burhan-ad-Din Halbi, Dar-ul-Isha'at, Urdu Bazaar, Karachi, volume 1, first half of part 1, page 113, entitled 'Jibra'il ki 'umar'.

It also appears in tarikh-e-kabir, by Imam Abu Abdullah bin Ismail Bukhari, and in Tafsir Ruh-al-Bayan, volume 1, page 974.

It is also in the other books you have mentioned, but it also depends whether such resources with those references are available, insha'Allah, and I will do my best to attain those as best as I can.

Furthermore, issues concerning such topics such as weather the light of the Beloved Messenger Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam was in existence or not, whether they were light (nur), or human (bashr) is a matter which is so detailed, that it is simply not worth getting into arguements over, as what is clear and manifest from the references you have mentioned yourself, and by those which I have confirmed, although the questioner himself can be identified as to what intent he has, that the question relates to.

This is not the only topic that certain people will question. There are others, and full references will be provided, not only from the sunnah of the Beloved Messenger Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam, but also the Qur'an Sharif, as such questions are most welcome.




Jazak'allah for your question.





Wallahu A'lamu Biththawaab
