maulana, agla sawal haiderabad se aaya hai misTr zeeshan yusuf ka. unho'n ne aap se poocha hai ke is dua "made by prophets" always accepted by Allah. Is there any case when Prophet Muhammad asked something in dua, but Allah did not accept it? haan, is ki maujood hai. ummat ke liye dua ki thi aap ne, woh Allah taala ne qabool nahi'n ki. khud rasool Allah ne farmaya ke qabool nahi'n hui. kaha ji, To qabool nahi'n hui thi. sab bahmi ikhtilaf hain.
1:24:55
bahmi ikhtilaf. rasool Allah sal Allahu alaihi wasallam ne dua ki Allah taala se ke meri ummat mein bahmi ikhtilaf na ho, bahmi ikhtilaf na ho. lamba sajda kiya tha aap ne, To aap ne khud farmaya ke yeh qabool nahi'n hui. To is ka ma'na hai ke jab musalman bahmi ikhtilaf kar ke aapas mein, ya'ni aik doosre ke negative ban jayen, nafraten karen aur buraiyan phailayen, jhoote ilzamat lagayen. dekhen, bahmi ikhtilaf saada baat nahi'n hai.
1:25:35
bahmi ikhtilaf ke do ma'ne hain. aik yeh hai jis ko kehte hain "dissent". dissent ya'ni ikhtilafi rai ka izhar. dissent is very good. dissent mein koi kharabi nahi'n hai. D. I. S. S. E. N. T. decent mein koi kharabi nahi hai. woh koi burai nahi hai. woh lekin yeh buri cheez hai ke aap kisi se aap ko ikhtilaf ho to aap us ke dushman ban jayen, us ko badnaam karen, jhoote ilzaam lagayen, us ka character asassinate karen. yeh sab yeh sab buri cheezain hain. to is se Allah Rasool Allah ne dua ki thi ke yeh meri qom is mein na mubtala ho, is burai mein.
1:26:21
to dua qabool nahi hui. kyunke agar yeh, agar Allah taala is ummat ko is se, yani is se woh kar de, mehfooz kar de, to un ka imtehan kis cheez mein hoga? un ka test kis cheez mein liya jayega? to test khatam ho jata tha. is liye qabool nahi hui dua. to musalmanon ko bohat ziyada darna chahiye is baat se ke ikhtilaf kar ke jo aaj kal aam hai, aam jahan ikhtilaf hua, foran jhooti baatein phailane lage is ke baray mein.
1:26:58
jahan ikhtilaf hua, ilzaam tarashi, aib zani, yeh se shuru kar di. to yeh woh maqam hai jahan aik Allah aur Rasool ka saath dene wale nahi hain. jo is mein mubtala hoga, to us ko Allah aur Rasool ka saath nahi milega. aap ko decent ka haq bilashuba hai, decent ka daleel ke sath. lekin kisi ka character assassination, kisi ki aib zani, kisi ki ilzaam tarashi, jhoota badnaam karna, yeh bilashuba haram se bhi ziyada buri cheez hai. is mein koi shakk nahi.
