ISSN 0890-6831 MUSLIM PERSPECTIVE Published Monthly by MASJID TUCSON January 1987 (No. 24) Jumada I 1407 Editor: Rashad Khalifa, Ph.D. Kassim Ahmad: A Great Mujahid Whose Victory is Guaranteed by God CONFESSIONS OF ARIFFIN SUHAIMI MUSLIM 'ULAMA DECLARE THEIR IDOLATRY During the violent storm that followed Kassim Ahmad's outstanding book Hadith: A Re-evalu- ation (see the August 1986 issue of MUSLIM PERSPECTIVE, Brother Kassim issued a six-point challenge to the 'Ulama: (1) What was the divine scripture that was brought to mankind through Prophet Mu- hammad - the Quran alone or the Quran and the Hadith? (2) Is the Quran complete, perfect and detailed or not? (3) Are not many of the Hadith in the so-called contradictory to collections authentic the clear teachings of the Quran, common sense and scientific and historical evidence? (4) Are the reported words of the Prophet (Hadith) on par with the words of God - the Quran? (5) Are the 'Ulama prepared to add another article of faith, i.e., belief in Hadith/Sun- nah, to the present six articles of the Muslim faith? (6) Is it wrong for anyone to exhort the Muslims back to the Quran? Mr. Suhaimi is the Deputy Rector of the International Islamic University of Malaysia. reply to Kassim's challenge, he, as In his a typical representative of today's • Muslim 'Ulama, exhibited pitiful ignorance of Quran, and demonstrated God's intervention to block the minds of disbelievers and idol worshipers (Quran 17:45-46 & 18:57). Mr. Suhaimi proved that he is not aware of the Prophet's function as stated repeatedly in Quran: that his sole function was to deliver Quran. are the original Arabic texts from Quran declaring in the strongest possible assurances, double negative, employing the the Prophet had NO function EXCEPT deliver- Verses 15-19 of Sura ing Quran. Moreover, 75 specifically forbid the Prophet from explain- Mr. Suhaimi rejects God's ing Quran. assertions and conveys on his idol additional functions, as if thro-delivering Quran to humani- ty is a menial job. Suhaimi's reply to Kassim's third point exposed Suhaimi's rejection of the Quranic law that contradictions constitute a sign of ungudliness (see Quran 4:82). He confesses that Hadith is contradictory to Quran, science, common sense and even itself. Yet, he insists upon the shameful act of upholding Hadith. The messenger has NO "You have NO duty EXCEPT delivering (Quran)" (42: 48) function EXCEPI • delivering (Quran) "Your ONLY duty is delivering (Quran), while we will call (5:99)
second point Suhaimi replies to Kassim's ›y stating: "There is no quarrel about Kassim's econd point about the Ruran being complete, Unfortunately, absolute." serfect he and follows this statement by the nullifying article 'But." which is typical of people who say "hat they do not really believe, i.e., hypocrites. While replying to Kassim's fifth point, Suhaimi rebels against God and against the Prophet by rejecting the important Quranic command- not give distinction to any ment: you shall particular prophet or messenger of God (see Quran 2:136, 285; 3:84 & 4:150). The Shahadah, to all consists of Hadiths, according LAA ELAAHA ELLA ALLAH. But Mr. Suhaimi rejects both the Quran and his beloved Hadith his idolatry by insisting that and exposes we must add MUHAMMAD RASOOL ALLAH. addition constitutes disobedience of This God and the prophet, and de facto disbelief in other messengers of God. It is significant that Quran asserts that the true believers obey," when "We hear, and say, com- manded to give no distinction to any particular Quran messenger (see 2:285). Mr. Suhaimi declares, "I hear, but I disobey." To examine point, a muslim needs only this particular to ask himself: "How many times do I declare that Jesus. or Moses, or Younus, or Saaleh, or Loot are messengers of God? As believers in Quran, we know that Muhammad is a messen- ger of God. This is why the Quran declares that only the hypocrites need to announce Muhammad belief that their hypocritical is a messenger of God (see Quran 63:1). Finally, it is noteworthy that the Vice-President Association. Malaysia's Salleh, has added belief in Hadith as a require- ment for Muslims. According to him, a new Muslim who believes in LAA ELAHA ELLA ALLAH and upholds Quran, the whole Quran and nothing but Quran will not believing in the ridiculous superstition-rid- to God's final den fabrications attributed It is an honor for me that Sheikh Salleh has reiterated Sheikh bin Baz's attacks on me. A science textbook entitled Evolution and Creationism uses Sheikh Abdul Aziz bin Baz to demonstrate the falsehood of Quran, 'Alim believes that the since this Muslim Earth is flat. The book quotes Sheikh bin Baz's statements that Quran and Hadith state that the Earth is flat. It is unfortunate that Quran was given such a devastating bad name because of the stupidity of a leading Muslim 'Alim. Thank God this man disagrees with me; I will be terribly disturbed if he agrees with me. At the risk of polluting the pages of this publication, let me remind Ariffin Suhaimi, Hasan Salleh and Abdul Aziz bin Baz of one Hadith from Sahih Bukhari (remember, this is a Sahih Hadith): The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "When Satan hears the Azan, he runs away and farts loudly, in order to drown the voice of Muazzin." I apologize to my readers for putting this filth in MP. Letters I was really about your idea happy to hear for studying Quran in the last issue... I am really excited about the prospect of feeling my faith strengthen as God fulfills His promise to teach me what I need to know. Martha Schulte, Boston. I feel very humbled to participate in this glorious study. Allah has surely answered my prayers. Fatimah Barbara Abdullah, Pittsburgh. My old "family priest," who is a true believer, Kyrkoherde Bror-Axel Lindorn, once said, "The real danger for humanity is not the evilness of the wicked, but the lack of courage among the good people." And he is right; & man a true believer, because it takes intellectual courage to reflect, uphold the truth. and work righteousness. Eric Tornwall, Switzerland. Page 2 Referring to the 'Ulama's feeble attempt to destroy God's mathematical miracle and remove Al-Basmalah (see also the article on Page 4): Al-Basmalah appears at the head of the Opening Sura (Al-Faatihah). If, as they claim, Al-Bas- malah was designed simply to indicate the end of one Sura and the beginning of a new Sura (IMPACT INTERNATIONAL, 8-21 August 1986), there is no prior Sura to Sura Al-Faati- hah. So, Al-Basmalah is obviously not designed as a mere separation of Suras in this way. Congratulations on how you refuted their very very lame argument. Abdullah Shams, Sidney, Australia. Editor's Note: Brother Abdullah also wrote a 12-page refuta- tion of Malaysia's 'Ulamas opinions regarding Kassim Ahmad's book "Hadith: A Re-evalua- tion." He sent his powerful article to Malays- ia's Islamic Herald. May God bless him and reward him for steadfastly striving on behalf of God's truth.

Muslims the world over recoanize the Arabic word for God as be changed. Some normal spelling sein Mr. Hamidullah suggests that we add one letter "Alef" between the "Laam" and the "Haa." This will immediately change the word from the name of God to a word which means ONE WHO PLAYS AROUND. The Arabic word "Yalhoor84" means "to play and have fun," or "to become so involved in fun that one becomes oblivious and unaware." The past tense of this word is "Lahaa 8) " and the person who does this is "Laahi O)," or in certain grammatical situations "Lah The addition of the Arabic article "Al JI" to this last word produces the suggested word SJIJ for God as proposed by Hamidullah. sul SayI • IJLo This one example teaches us that Almighty God has deliberately designed His Holy Name world to recognize whole its uniqueness and beauty. These enemies of God are so ignorant that they never cease to commit one horrendous blasphemy after another. Their ultimate goal, of course, is to change the miraculous mathematical composition with the wishes of Qur'an, in compliance of their true god and master, Satan. But their immense stupidity causes them to forget ILAL "Haa Meem-initialed Suras, that the seven for example, contain 2,147 Haa + Meem (19x changes proposed blasphemous 113).

Thus, they will still face the formidable task of trying to explain this miraculous phenomenon: why do the Haa's and Meem's follow this mathematical pattern, and exhibit precisely 2,147 (19x113) letters in the seven Suras? The loss or addition of only one Haa or one Meem would have destroy-
