Eide Ghadir Khumm

[raptor22]

Congratulations on Eide Ghadir Khumm

In last year of the prophet (pbuh&hh) life and after "Farewell Pilgrimage" which in the Messenger of Allah (pbuh&hh) ordered to his close followers to call all the people in different places to join him in his last pilgrimage. On this pilgrimage he taught them how to perform the pilgrimage in a correct and unified form.
In 18th of Dhu al-Hijjah of 10 AH and in the way of return to Medina from Haj this verse was revealed to the prophet of Islam:

5:67
O Messenger, announce that which has been revealed to you from your Lord, and if you do not, then you have not conveyed His message. And Allah will protect you from the people. Indeed, Allah does not guide the disbelieving people.

​

After 22.5 years of hardship,,, Mecca and all its troubles, Medina and all its struggles, wars , losing beloved wife and companions, being insulted,,, which in prophet of God has preached everything from Quran, Haj, Fast, Prayer, Zakat, Khoms, Jihad, Marriage, Enjoining good and forbidding wrong to the people and also in final months of his life Allah says to his prophet in the very verse that "If you do not preach what I've just commanded you, your message(Islam) is not completed"
And what is more important is the second part of the verse

"And Allah will protect you from the people. Indeed, Allah does not guide the disbelieving people." ..​

'cause whatever the message was it could make some people to harm the prophet (pbuh&hh) ....The last sentence in the above verse indicates that the Prophet (pbuh&hh) was mindful of the reaction of his people in delivering that message but Allah informs him not to worry, for He will protect His Messenger from people.
What could the message be which without it being delivered to people all prophet (pbuh&hh) teachings and efforts to guide people would not be completed while everything from Quran, Haj, Fast, Prayer, Zakat, Khoms, Jihad, Marriage, Enjoining good and forbidding wrong to the people have been revealed earlier???what is this which without it Quran, Prayer, Haj and all aforementioned items would turned to be useless????

Before this and in Mecca and in several occasions prophet (pbuh&hh) preached people on very important thing "Tradition of the Two Weighty Things (thaqalayn)":

I am leaving among you something which is very important and should be followed, you will not go astray if you get hold of it after I am gone, one part of it being more important than the other: Allah's Book, which is a rope stretched from Heaven to Earth, and my close relatives, who belong to my household. These two will not separate from one another till they come down to the reservoir, so consider how you act regarding them after my departure."
Tirmidhi​

Upon receiving the verse he stopped at Ghadir Khum to convey the message to the pilgrims before they dispersed. the Prophet (pbuh&hh) stopped on that place (the pond of Khumm) which was extremely hot. Then he sent for all people who have been ahead in the way, to come back and waited until all pilgrims who fell behind, arrived and gathered. He ordered Salman (R) to use rocks and camel tooling to make a pulpit (minbar) so he could make his announcement. It was around noon time in the first of the Fall, and due to the extreme heat in that valley, people were wrapping their robes around their feet and legs, and were sitting around the pulpit, on the hot rocks.

On this day the Messenger of Allah (pbuh&hh) spent 5 hours in this place; three hours of which he was on the pulpit. He recited nearly one hundred verses from The Glorious Qur’an, and for seventy three times reminded and warned people of their deeds and future. Then he gave them a long speech. The following is a part of his speech which has been widely narrated by the Sunni traditionalists:


And again after several times saying the Tradition of the Two Weighty Things during "Farewell Pilgrimage" the prophet (pbuh&hh) repeats it one more time in Khumm:

The Messenger of Allah (pbuh&hh) declared:
"It seems the time approached when I shall be called away (by Allah) and I shall answer that call. I am leaving for you two precious things and if you adhere to them both, you will never go astray after me. They are the Book of Allah and my Progeny, that is my Ahlul Bayt. The two shall never separate from each other until they come to me by the Pool (of Paradise)."​

And Then and after reciting nearly one hundred verses from The Glorious Qur’an, and for seventy three times reminded and warned people of their deeds and future and a long speech the Messenger of Allah continued:

ألَسْتُ أولى بالمؤمنين من أنفسهم؟
"Do I not have more right over the believers than what they have over themselves?”

قالوا بلى يارسول الله.
People cried and answered: "Yes, O’ Messenger of God.”

قال: من كنت مولاه فعلي مولاه. اللهم وال من والاه و عاد من عاداه
Then Prophet (S) held up the hand of ‘Ali and said: "Whoever I am his leader (Mawla), ‘Ali is his leader (Mawla). O’ God, love those who love him, and be hostile to those who are hostile to him."



Immediately after the Prophet (pbuh&hh) finished his speech, the following verse of the Qur'an was revealed:

This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favor upon you and have approved for you Islam as religion.(Qur'an 5:3)​

After his speech, the Messenger of Allah (pbuh&hh) asked everybody to give the oath of allegiance to 'Ali [a] and congratulate him. Among those who did so was 'Umar b. al-Khattab, who said: "Well done Ibn Abi Talib! Today you became the Leader (mawla) of all believing men and women."

Congratulations to Muslims, shias for their imam was chosen by prophet pbuh. Sunnis as their prophet told them who is the dearest friend to him. Congrats anyways
I have fear, i would end up as a politician

Sir I don't question your motives for this post. You are a Shia living in a Shia-majority country so you can be oblivious to these sensitivities.

But you are posting this on forum of a Sunni majority country. It is considered extremely blasphemous in our faith to show shabih (picture) of the Prophet(SAW) and even picture of the companions like Hazrat Ali (R.A) is not taken favorably.

While our narrative of the events you described above is different to yours, you have the right to present yours. But please remove the images. These are the kind of sensitivities that both school of thoughts will have to understand if we are to co-exist in peace.

I replaced the picture as you wanted and you right I shouldn't have posted that picture ... we have the same idea over here.
On the other hand you know what is considered extremely blasphemous in our faith? to neglect teachings of Prophet (pbuh&hh) for 1400 years .. I didn't know mentioning history of Islam, prophet (pbuh&hh) teachings, the holy Quran verses could be sensitive and endanger the possibility to co-exist in peace.
By the way what I posted here all are from Sunni books ,Quran and historic facts that really happened during "Farewell Pilgrimage" and no one can deny them.

Moreover what narrative of the events you want when Umar ibn al-Khattab congratulated Ali (as) in this day:

"Congratulations, O son of Abu Talib, this morning you became mawla of every believing man and woman.​

Do you congratulate people for becoming friends of every believing man and woman? and stay there for 3 days to just tells Ali (as) congrats now you are friends of all Muslim? was Ali (as) 'enemy' of all believing men and women before that time, so that 'Umar said that 'this morning' you became friend of them all? while Prophet (pbuh&hh) talked about authority before calling All (as) "Mawla".
Logically is it possible for prophet (pbuh&hh) to gather at least 80 to 100 k people in scorching hours of day in middle of the desert in his last year of his life while Allah has sent him the verse that"

"O Messenger, announce that which has been revealed to you from your Lord, and if you do not, then you have not conveyed His message."
​

And Then after reciting nearly one hundred verses from The Glorious Qur’an, and for seventy three times reminded and warned people of their deeds and future and a long speech for 3 hours the Messenger of Allah continued:

"It seems the time approached when I shall be called away (by Allah) and I shall answer that call. I am leaving for you two precious things and if you adhere to them both, you will never go astray after me. They are the Book of Allah and my Progeny, that is my Ahlul Bayt. The two shall never separate from each other until they come to me by the Pool (of Paradise)."​

and Then:

"Do I not have more right over the believers than what they have over themselves?”

People cried and answered: "Yes, O’ Messenger of God.”

Then Prophet (S) held up the hand of ‘Ali and said: "Whoever I am his leader (Mawla), ‘Ali is his leader (Mawla). O’ God, love those who love him, and be hostile to those who are hostile to him."


And all these to conclude Ali (as) is your friend now....????!!!

Politicians create fitnah. You are trying to end one. :p

We are cursed if we allowed 5% difference to divide us so severely.

Anyway eid Mubarak to all shias.

As for thread. We have Iranians and Iraqis here and a sizeable population of shias in pakistan. So this thread is fine here.

Thanks bro,

I don't think that there is a divide bro,
As Imam Ali is the fourth caliph of Sunni brothers, we have many things in common.

And in history, you can see ever body after Osman (RA) asked Imam Ali (AS) to lead them. Yeah some differences, i see , but no division. I respect Rashidun (RA)

There is no division btw Muslims, 99% of our beliefs is the same. we do believe in the same GOD, prophet, book, Sunna, hereafter, resurrection and we both do respect his household. What I mentioned here is merely an attribute to Imam Ali (as) and people are free to read and choose and eventually accept or reject it... I didn't insult or mock anyone beliefs. I just expressed mine.

dear sir, I only mentioned the pictures as the sensitive issue here, rest is fine with me and you have the right to express your beliefs. And thank you for removing those images.

Loving Hazrat Ali(r.a) and ahl e bait (r.a) is part of our faith too, anyone who is enemy of Hazrat Ali (r.a) is considered a Kafir and a Kharji in Sunni faith. If loving Hazrat Ali(r.a) and ahl-e-bait(r.a) is the only requirement of being a Shia then I am as much a Shia as you are.

As for the first video you have shared. There lies our differences. We consider Hazrat Abu Bakr(r.a) as the righteous caliph. And sorry to say while explaining some words were twisted to build a narrative. For example the reference to Rida wars against the Murtadeen. No we don't consider them Murtadeen because they did not accept Hazrat Abu Bakr(r.a) as their leader, but because some of them were followers of fake prophets like Musilma Kazab, while others declined to pay Zakat, which is one of the 5 pillars of Islam.

Anyway it is a controversial issue, neither I can make you believe in my faith, and nor you can make me believe in yours. We have our differences, but we can co-exist if we learn to differ in a peaceful manner. Greetings to you and other Shia around the world on your religious festival.
