    You have no proof. If you want to use balagh= delivery then that word means delivery and make it understood not the delivery of the postman. Note that the Qur'an never uses words that are more like postman as "Tasleem" or "ilqaa" but used "balagh" which is deeper and has more than delivery. The Arabic word "balagha" means being able to "making something understood in the clearest way possible".

    Secondly, if he explained it to his friends and his friends explained it to their friends and children and so forth, then the hadeeth is important because it reflects that knowledge of the early muslim community.

    Thirdly, the "obey the messenger" was not limited to his life or death. The Qur'an does not give that limit. Just as the "obey God" was not limited to the time of life of the messenger. So, in both cases you are depending on reading texts to understand them. The texts of the hadeeth can help you understand the text of the Qur'an.

    Take care

    Hussein

      Peace "leoxyz" and other who wanna follow hadith as part of religious law,
      This has been discussed many times before. Each of the prophet's words could NOT have been GOD's inpiration. Consider 3337. Hence how do we knwo which hadith are true and which are not(rem quran is also known as hadith). The Quran after rigorous investigation comes out to be the only authentic hadith while Bukhari, Muslim Qudsi etc fail miserably. Its that simple. They lack any scientific proof whatsoever as being the authentic inspirations of GOD. Moreover the statement "obey the messenger" does NOT refer uniquely to Muhammad but to ANY MESSENGER THAT MAY COME TO ANY COMMUNITY TILL THE END OF THE WORLD. The Quran clearly says "li KULLI UMMATTIN rasool" meaning "to EVERY COMMUNITY a messenger" and this is not in past tense. Moreover GOD exclusively termed Muhammad as "khaatamun NABIYEEN(last of proiphets)" and NOT "khaatamun nabiyeen wal murasaleen". Sunni and shia sectraians stupid twisted definition that every rasool has to be a nabi also doesnt hold per the Quran as you can see int he following article
      http//www.submission.org/messenger/prophet.html
      GOD Bless!

      ANOTHER CAT IS OUT OF BAG

      So Qadianis are also operational over here.All anti-islam stuff is accumulated to
      -Attack Allah and Quran
      -To attack authority of the Prophet PBUH
      -To Tamper the quran
      -To attack finality of prophethood of Muhammad PBUH

        Peace Hussein,

        My use of "postman" was intended as a starting point(from where you had started), but yes, basically the messenger could be considered something like, well..a messenger (one who delivers a message through the clearest possible way), this case, Speech/ and then dictation of that speech for future generations.

        Secondly, I agree, the prophet's actual direct explanations of the "messenger's speech" would be important to his followers, though dangerous and anti-quranic when passed on to a people not there to hear it from the prophet's mouth themselves. Fact is, if the prophet thought his explanations important for the future generations he would have wrote them down.

        Thirdly, "obeying god and obeying the messenger" are one and the same. There is no time limit due to the fact that we have the "message" associated with the god and the messenger".

        Peace

          Hussein (or anyone else), is the 2.5% zakaat mandatory?

          And what is jizya according to you? Is there a minimum % requirement?

          Peace!

            Salaam Warner,

            KLM is spoken words, whether by humans or by God or others. Here are some examples of human speech 346, 11105 and more. Examples of animals speaking in words to humans 2782 Examples of God speech The ones mentioned earlier as well as 2174, 2118. All of them are spoken words.

            QWL is communication spoken or unspoken in words or otherwise also by God or man or any other entity. Here is an example of unspoken QWL

            191 Kaf. Ha. Ya. Ain. Sad.

            192 A mention of the mercy of thy Lord unto His servant Zachariah.

            193 When he cried unto his Lord a cry in secret,

            194 Saying My Lord! Lo! the bones of me wax feeble and my head is shining with grey hair, and I have never been unblest in prayer to Thee, my Lord.

            195 Lo! I fear my kinsfolk after me, since my wife is barren. Oh, give me from Thy presence a successor

            Khafiyya which was translated by Picktal as secret is closer to hidden.

            QALA he said is the word that was translated as Saying. Suggesting that he said something but it could have been spoken or unspoken and probably it was unspoken since it was hidden.

            There are other examples like this as well. So, whenever you see KLM, then it is spoken words and when QWL, it could be spoken or unspoken form of communication.

            The Qur'an was never pointed to in the Qur'an as QAWL. It was only referred to as Kalam= spoken words.

            Take care and have a great day.

            Hussein

            Salaam Hussein

            I did not want to take this subject forward after the above and the response from Ayman. I thought this is going around in circles.

            But since there maybe a situation where I could have misunderstood you please be good enough to tell me how do you define ?saying? and ?speech?.

            Thank you

                There is no point in discussing the english words when we are discussing the Arabic words of the Qur'an. However, I use "Saying" for QAWL and KALAM for speech. Mainly, I allow saying to be more than spoken words, while keep speech as spoken words.

                  The Rasool is indeed just a "postman", the prophet on the otherhand, was someone living 1400 or so years ago appointed by the god to lead his particular followers with the quran, In a couple of more words, the prophet explained it to his followers and he implemented it to the best of his human abillity at that time.

                  Important point( take note leo), the quran NEVER proscribed its followers to "Obey the prophet".

                  The rasool is not "just" a post man, this is ill mentality.

                  GOD and His angels help and support the prophet. O you who believe, you shall help and support him, and regard him as he should be regarded.

                  Shame on anyone who calls himself as a Muslim and disobeys the clear Sign of Allah.

                      Indeed.

                      Which Hadith, other than this, do they uphold?

                      These are GOD's revelations that we recite to you truthfully. In which Hadith other than GOD and His revelations do they believe?

                      Have they not looked at the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and all the things GOD has created? Does it ever occur to them that the end of their life may be near? Which Hadith, beside this, do they believe in?

                      Turn unto Him alone then, and be mindful of Him, and establish the Divine System and be not of the Mushrikeen (idolaters) who ascribe ?partners? to Him. Those who split up their religion becoming sects, each sect delighting in whatever beliefs they have.

                          Would you please throw light on it so that all "illiterate " must know it.

                          Any one who is claiming to be "Rasool" or "Nabi" after the Holy Prophet PBUH is a "Kaafir" without any reservation.

                              So you think that Any Prophet and Rasool come.Any such concept is againt the quranic teaching;
                              A muslim is bound to believe
                              -whatever is revealed before the prophet PBUH
                              -What is revealed on the Prophet PBUH
                              Proof
                              24

                              There is no such provision which states that muslims should believe "anyone" claiming to be Prophet after the Holy Prophet PBUH.
                              If there is such thing bring the proof from the Quran .Now it is your turn to bring the proof

                                  This is a very serious and powerful statement. If you can back it up with a verse, or two, I'd appreciate it. If not, please accept and admit that you have no proof of such. Simple.

                                    Yes I believe any thought which is against the Quranic teaching is "Kufar".
                                    You may believe otherway round that any thought which is against the quranic teaching is "Islam".
                                    I cannot enforce anyone.

                                      Either you have to prove revelation is still there after the Prophet PBUH or you have to admit that it Non -Quranic /Non islamic concept.
                                      Revelation was = Before the Prophet PBUH
                                      Revelation on the Holy Prophet PBUH
                                      Afterwards =No revelation
                                      Quran says
                                      24
                                      So anyone who believes that revelation is Possible after the Holy Prophet PBUH is not a muslim (Kaafir).

                                          Translate the Aya which I put it again
                                          24

                                          No revelation after the Holy Prophet(PBUH).Anyone who believes contrary to it does not believe in Quran ---------------> Kaafir
                                          If you have proof bring forward.
