Who is Part of Prophet Mohammad's (PBUH) Household?
Kashif Zafar.
Brother Kashif asks
'I would like to know what it means to alter the words of God?'
'Tehreef' means minus.
To extract some sentences
and modifying them.
That's tehreef.
The holy Koran has not been altered.
however, the explanations have been altered.
So it's the same thing.
A Sunni and Shiite both take different meanings from the same Koran.
I mean, just look at this one issue.
[The Shiites] say that Ayat e Tatheer was for the Prophet's Household which only includes
Prophet Mohammad's daughter, Moula Ali, Imam Hassan and Imam Hussain.
While the Koran states something else.
Now, this here is verse 33 of Chapter Al-Ahzab.
Here it says
'Wa qarna'
Wa qarna means 'stay put'.
'Wa qarna...'
'...fee bu yoo tikunna'
Meaning: stay in your homes.
And God is saying here
is that the way you would display your beauty in the Age of Ignorance,
do not display your beauty in such a way now.
Right?
The way you would display your beauty for all to see in the Age of Ignorance, without admonition,
you must not display your beauty in that manner now.
And then it says, 'And offer Salat regularly and give charity.'
Right?
And then it says, 'God has intended...'
The words stated here before the Ayat e Tatheer, who are they addressed to?
People say the wives are being addressed but no, everybody in the household is being addressed.
This was for all the women.
Why would it only be for the wives?
No, it's for all.
For the entire household.
Don't think Islam is a mythical religion straight from Greek Mythology.
Don't think certain members of the household were exempted.
The law is the law.
And no one is exempt from that law.
This is what His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi has stated.
Do you understand?
*His Divine Eminence's poetry*
Your familial background holds no ground on Judgement Day.
Therefore, it is not just about the wives
Bibi Fatima is also included in it.
Don't do this because you cannot change reality.
You understand?
Nothing you do will change reality.
Don't even think that when Bibi Fatima was born her lower self was not impure.
There has not been a single prophet in this world
whose lower self was not impure at the time of birth.
Even Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) said it.
'A satanic jinn was also born with me but it became purified in my company.'
It became purified in the Prophet's company.
And what about his daughter, Bibi Fatima's company?
Do you think she was born pure?
Come on, man!
Stop turning Islam into Greek Mythology!
You should base your tenets solely upon reality.
If they were all born noble and pure
then why would God intend to purify them?
God could have said that they were born pure.
Right?
He should've said it.
So don't say, 'Oh no, Bibi Fatima is not being addressed in this verse.' Why not?
Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) also said that a satanic jinn was born with him too
which was purified in his company - it's not like it happened in one second, right?
Or do you think that it did? [Audience: no].
You can read Chapter Yusuf
which tells the story of Zulaikha and Yusuf.
God says in that verse: O' Yusuf!
I saved you.
What did God say?
'O' Yusuf! I saved you.
Otherwise, the Commanding Self compels you to sin.'
If you were not helped by me, you would have done the wrong thing
because the Commanding Self forces you to sin.'
And who was Yusuf? A Prophet.
If a Prophet's lower self was impure before the announcement of his prophethood then what about others?
You must reform your tenets.
Reform your tenets and don't say that they were all pure
that they were born pure.
Absolutely no one is born pure,
the satanic jinn is born with all.
This is not what I am saying, it's written in Prophetic Traditions.
You can see it here.
Here in Koran 33:33 God says
that God has intended.
So it means that when this was said, until then
until then
until then they were not purified.
If they had been purified then God wouldn't say 'I have intended...'
rather, 'I have purified them'.
But mentioned here is God's intention.
'I have intended...'
'...that all kinds of impurities be removed from the Household of the Prophet.'
'And purify them in a way that they are entitled to.'
Now, this for you is just a nice sentence but you don't actually know what it means to purify them.
Right?
You don't know what 'as they are entitled to' means.
So what does it mean?
For example, you are going to do ablution
and you simply wash your face and run water down your arms
so you may be somewhat cleansed, but not completely.
What does it mean to be entitled to purification?
You go for ablution
and your entire body; every nook and cranny
is washed and cleansed.
You wash your head.
You wash your face and clean your ears.
You rinse your beard if you have one.
You wash your legs and feet and also recite a prayer at the same time.
So you cleanse your entire body and in such a way
What way?
That no speck of dirt and filth remains on any part of the body.
Now, the crystal clear message of God in Ayat e Tatheer for the Prophet's Household is
something which only a spiritualist can understand -
What God means by intending to purify them of all impurities means
God purified them of all physical impurities as well as purifying their lower selves
as well as removing the 180,000 satanic layers upon the spiritual heart
as well as purifying the negative energy which had entered their bloodstream
after which, their bodies were completely cleansed of any impurities.
That's how pure they became.
So this is what God did for them.
The rest of the nation must do this themselves, with the help of a Spiritual Mediator.
However, a time comes when
although one person was purified by God and the other became pure with the divine grant and help of the Spiritual Mediator
however, when they reached the destination, both were equally pure.
One inherited a million pounds and the other had a job
the latter would also become a millionaire like the former in a few years' time.
What counts up there is piety.
In the eyes of God, the more pious you are the more worthy you are of being blessed.
The standard up there is piety regardless of your family tree.
*HDE Gohar Shahi's poetry*
These are the teachings of HDE Gohar Shahi.
Prophet Mohammad's (PBUH) household also includes the respected and honourable wives.
The Household includes the Prophet's respected and honourable wives.
If you happen to blaspheme any of them
you would end up losing your faith.
Regardless of who you blaspheme from the Prophet's Household
you will lose your faith.
Because in another place in the Koran, Chapter As-Shuhra in verse 23
In Chapter As-Shuhra verse 23, God says: O' Messenger of God
tell them, your nation,
the benevolence of prophethood and connection to God that you have granted them
that you do not wish for any repayment for it.
That he doesn't...[audience repeats].
He doesn't want any repayment for it, for except that we love those who are near to him.
Now, you are obligated to love whoever is near and dear to the Prophet.
Loving the one who is near to the Prophet became a part of faith.
No matter who it is.
When this verse was revealed
loving all those who were near and dear to the Prophet was a part of the faith for the followers of the Prophet.
Thereafter, when the spiritual knowledge was carried forward by Ali,
all those who obtained proximity to Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) via the spiritual knowledge
loving all such people also became a part of faith.
When Data Ali Hajweri became a saint, loving him also became a part of faith.
Loving Abdul Qadir Gilani and Khwaja Gharib Nawaz also became a part of faith.
Loving Abdullah Shah Ghazi also became a part of faith.
Why?
For they obtained proximity to Prophet Mohammad (PBUH).
The Koran commands
that loving them
is what the Prophet asks for.
The only thing the Prophet asks is that you love those who are near and dear to him.
Those who only possessed exoteric knowledge
they thought that only the Household was in nearness to the Prophet.
But that was just physical nearness.
Prophet Mohammad's era did not last for 63 years!
Prophet Mohammad's life was not bound to 63 years!
Prophet Mohammad's nearness is available today
and Prophet Mohammad's nearness will be available tomorrow!
You can obtain the nearness of the Prophet even today!
All those who obtain the Prophet's nearness, you will be obligated to love them
as it will be a part of your faith.
What do you think?
It was based on this spiritual law that the Prophet said, 'Salman Farsi is included in my Household.'
Although he never lived in the Prophet's house.
Now, there are two Households of the Prophet.
The house which was built with cement
and the house which is the body of Prophet Mohammad (PBUH).
Those who are connected to the Prophet's heart are also part of the Household.
The people living in the house made of cement were also known as the Household
and those who lived in or were connected to the heart of the Prophet were also included in the Household.
Loving them will always be a part of faith.
Obtaining the Prophet's proximity is available even today.
I am not criticising any sect.
Rather, I am helping the sects by telling them to reform their tenets and obtain the Prophet's proximity.
This is to help them not criticise them.
What did I say? [Audience repeats].
And constructive criticism is an obligation.
Who made it an obligation?
The Holy Koran.
31:17
'Amar bil Marouf - show them the right path'
I am correcting your tenets in the light of the Koran and Prophetic Traditions.
I am giving you constructive criticism and this falls under 'Amar bil Marouf'.
And 'Nahi al Munkir' - those who have been included in the Prophet's Household, like Bibi Aisha, do not degrade them
This is 'Nahi al Munkir'.
Since she has been included among the Prophet's Household, you cannot blaspheme her.
Is she not the Prophet's wife? Of course, she is.
Why do you not include her in the Prophet's Household?
What difference does it make even if you don't, God has already included her.
