Other Wahi than the quran ?
-
Peace /JM/ , loli n all,
First, and I'm not trying to 'downplay' or demean this valid question, but there is no "wahy" in these verses mentioned (as opposed to the headings you both chose).
Second, and I may reaching here, but the question she asks is - "Who informed you of this? What is "this"? What was the information?... was it -probihition and God has already given the law, regarding the cancellation of oaths. (587-89)?
The answer, I believe, is in the very verses you provided. Look again.
On the other hand, here's some verses that I found about inspiration, to other than messengers, while discussing on another thread. Perhaps this might broaden the understanding?...
Inspiration
And your Lord inspired to the bees ?You shall take homes of the mountains and of the trees and of what they erect.?
And We inspired to Moses? mother ?Suckle him, and when you become fearful for him, then cast him off in the sea, and do not fear nor grieve. We will return him to you and We will make him of the messengers.?
Thus, He then made them into seven universes in two days, and He inspired to every universe its affair. And We adorned the lowest universe with lamps, and for protection. Such is the design of the Noble, the Knowledgeable.
And it is not for any human being that God would speak to him, except through inspiration, or from behind a barrier, or by sending a messenger to inspire whom He wills by His leave. He is the Most High, Most Wise.
We have permitted the enemies of every prophet, human and Jinn devils, to inspire in each other with fancy words in order to deceive. Had your Lord willed, they would not have done it. You shall disregard them and their fabrications.

Salam,
May I add some verses to those quoted by Br Zein.
In 918 the verb alhama could also mean to inspire
- And a soul and what He made.
918 So He instilled/gave/inspired it its evil and good.
Faalhamaha fujooraha wataqwaha
Awha/inspire..
6121.And do not eat from that which God?s name has not been mentioned, for it is vile. And the devils they inspire (yoohoona) their supporters to argue with you; and if you obey them, then you have set up partners.
-
So he went out amongst his people from the temple enclosure, and he indicated/told by signs (awha) /to them that they should glorify Him morning and evening.
-
And We made them leaders who guide by Our command, and We inspired (awhayna) them to do good work and hold the contact-method and contribute towards betterment, and they were in service to Us.
-
And thus We have inspired (awhayna) to you an Arabic Quran, so that you may warn the capital town and all around it, and to warn about the Day of Gathering that is inevitable. A group will be in Paradise, and a group in Hell.
- And a soul and what He made.

Peace be upon you all,
a prophet, this one included, is inspired with TRUTH about the Universe(al kitaab), not a book. But one must purify thier selves enough to be able to recieve that inspiration, to be able to wake up.
A clue to what we need to do comes from the understanding that the God BREATHES the ruh(energy) into us, so we need to increase our oxygen intake. That is what "wakes us up".
Birds represent the spiritual heights of man. Birds have very powerful lungs and can SEE CLEARLY (awake).
One more thing in regards to THIS prophet, the reading was revealed in Arabic, this does not mean an arabic book was sent down from the sky, or that he heard an arabic voice whispering to him, no, it means that he was an arabic speaker and his thoughts therefore are in arabic. His understanding of the Universe came to him in Arabic and after this he or others(pious scribes) wrote it down.
What we are looking at is a righteous mans attempt to deliver what was inspired to him. As with ANY STORY(hadith) we have to verify its truth by Living it.

Peace zenje, all
From what i understand from the context,661-5. The prophet tells something to one of his wife(maybe a secret about another wife;664). Then she spread the "secret". She shouldnt do that, so Allah tells the prophet( by wahy?) about his wife spreading the "Secret". Then the prophet recognized part of it and denied part(does this means that the prophet tell his wife part of it and keep it to himself part of it?). His wife felt weird on how the prophet know that she is spreding the "secret", so she asked him.
I cant see how the law regarding the cancellation of oaths fits into the picture because the law have to be spread out. Not to keep as a secret between the prophet and his wife. So did the prophet receive anything else besides the Quran?
-
Salaam loli,
...so Allah tells the prophet( by wahy?) about his wife spreading the "Secret".
See, I'm not so sure about that, but then again, I may be wrong.I cant see how the law regarding the cancellation of oaths fits into the picture because the law have to be spread out. Not to keep as a secret between the prophet and his wife.
Why not? Try and look 'outside' of what you know. What was "a matter in confidence" that she 'broke'... could that be a 'cancellation of an oath'? ideaSo did the prophet receive anything else besides the Quran?
Was the prophet informed of anything, by God, other than quran, I think so. But I don't think - as law, or as words to reveal for mankind. Otherwise it would be in quran. This is my opinion.- Say ?Which is the greatest testimony?? Say ?God is witness between me and you, and He has inspired to me this Quran that I may warn you with it and whomever it reaches, that you bear witness that along with God are other gods!?; Say ?I do not bear witness!?, Say ?He is only One god, and I am innocent of what you set up!?
Peace.

Im not very sure, its hard to know the exact meaning of the verse if we don't know in what situation the verse is sent down. Maybe it is the 'cancellation of an oath' or something else. But how 'cancellation of an oath' could make two of the prophet's wife argue with each other?
Was the prophet informed of anything, by God, other than quran, I think so. But I don't think - as law, or as words to reveal for mankind. Otherwise it would be in quran. This is my opinion.
Hmm.. This will be a HUGE point for those who believes in hadith. Don't you think so?
Peace.

Peace everybody
In the article below, we learn that the only wahi the prophet got was the quran.
http//www.free-minds.org/books/naveed_03.htmBut
O you prophet, why do you prohibit what God has made lawful for you, seeking to please your wives? God is Forgiver, Merciful.
God has already given the law, regarding the cancellation of oaths. And God is your Lord, and He is the Knowledgeable, the Wise.
And when the prophet disclosed a matter in confidence to some of his wives, then one of them spread it, and God revealed it to him, he recognized part of it and denied part. So when he informed her, she said ?Who informed you of this?? He said ?I was informed by the Knowledgeable, the Expert.?Where is the verse where God informs the prophet ?
Thanks for your help
Peace
peace JM.
the answer is that the prophet recieved revelation other than the koran . but that was personel revelation . there are a number of verses in the koran indicating this . i will post them here God willing.
peace . -
Peace loli all!
loli he was informed by the very same verses you have quoted....
i think Quran was very decisive that Quran is the only revelation to him....yes there might be ambiguous places here and there that might be interpreted differently(but that interpretation isnt correct) but thats the case with all the topics...and ithats i believe a trap for the perverted hearts.... see 37
best wishes

Peace,
From my understanding, other prophets such as Aaron or Mother if Moses receive their revelation, but not in the form of a Book. So can Muhammad receive such revelation as well?
peace loli.
yes u r right . , Muhammad also recieved revelation other than the koran. -

Peace everybody,
Are there, according to you, different kinds of wahi ?
The Meaning of Wahy
The word awha, from which 'wahy' (revelation) is derived, occurs in a number of shades of meaning in the Qur'an, each of them indicating the main underlying idea of inspiration directing or guiding someone. In each example below, the italicised words in the translation are forms of the root word wahy in the original text of the Qur'an- Guidance in natural intuition
'so we sent this inspiration to the mother of Moses . . .' (287) - Guidance in natural instinct
'and thy Lord taught the bee to build its cells in hills, on trees and in (man's) habitations' (166 - Guidance by signs
'So Zakaria came out to his people from his chamber he told them by signs to celebrate God's praises in the morning and in the evening' (1911) - Guidance from evil
'Likewise did we make for every messenger an enemy evil ones among men and jinns, inspiring each other with flowery discourses by way of deception ...' (6112) - Guidance from God
'Remember thy Lord inspired the angels (with the message) ...' (812)
Means of Revelation
Wahy in the sense of 'revelation' is guidance from God for His creation, brought by the Prophets, who received the word from God through one of the means mentioned in the following Qur'anic verse
'It is not fitting for a man that God should speak to him except by inspiration, or from behind a veil, or by sending of a messenger to reveal with God's permission what God wills for He is Most High, Most Wise' (4251)
Means of revelation are- Inspiration, e.g. in a dream (see 37102, where it is related that Ibrahim receives guidance in a vision, while asleep, to sacrifice his son).
- Speech hidden away (see 278, where it is related that God spoke to Musa from the fire).
- Words (speech) sent through a special messenger from God (see 297, where it is related that God sent the Angel Gabriel as the messenger to Muhammad to reveal His message).

peace loli.
yes u r right . , Muhammad also recieved revelation other than the koran.Peace Saladin,
Maybe it helps to notice that even the private conversation between God and Muhammad is recorded in The Reading. Example for the case of the blind man and the prophet's wife giving away "secrets".
This verses are only meant for Muhammad, was it meant for his followers?
But it is still recorded in the Quran, So if the prophet receive anything else other than the Quran, dont you think that it will be recorded in the Quran? even personal wahy?Peace

peace loli.
the personal wahy doesnt necessarily have to be recorded in the koran ,although a number of them have been recorded . yes , the personel revelation was only for the prophet or sometimes for his contemporary people .some examples
- All?h has certainly helped you at Badr while you were weak. So, fear All?h so that you may be grateful. When you (O Prophet) were saying to the believers, ?Shall it not suffice you that your Lord shall aid you with three thousand angels being sent down? Why not? If you observe patience and fear All?h and they come to you in this their heat, your Lord shall aid you with five thousand angels having distinct marks?? And All?h did not make it but a good news for you so that your hearts might be satisfied. And there is no help except from All?h, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise. (3123-126)
this good news of sending down angels is not given in the koran . koran only tells that God gave the good news .
- And when All?h promised you that one of the two groups shall be for you. (87)
the promise is not found in the koran .
- When you were saying to the one whom All?h had blessed and whom you had blessed, (i.e. Zaid, before he divorced Zainab), ?Keep to you your wife and fear All?h,? and you were hiding in your heart what All?h was to disclose and you were fearing people, and All?h has more right to be feared by you. So, when Zaid finished with her, We made you marry her, so that there may remain no restriction on the believers in respect of the wives of their adopted sons when they have finished with them. And the order of All?h had to be done. (3337)
3337 tells that God made Muhammad marry Zaid's former wife . but koran gives no such order to Muhammad . the order was given in some personal revelation .
- Those remaining behind will say, when you set forth after spoils to acquire them, ?Let us follow you,?- desiring to change the words of All?h. Say, ?You shall not follow us; so All?h has said earlier.? (4815)
"Allah has said earlier"? where ? not in the koran . but through personal wahy .
peace .

Do you think hadith qudsi can exist ?
Qudsi means holy, or pure. There are some reports from the Prophet Muhammad where he relates to the people what God has said (says) or did (does), but this information is not part of the Qur'an. Such a report is called hadith qudsi, e.g.
Abu Huraira reported that Allah's messenger said
'Allah, Mighty and Exalted is He, said If My servant likes to meet me, I like to meet him, and if he dislikes to meet Me, I dislike to meet him.'

Peace JM, all
Although you asked Saladin, I hope you don't mind me responding oops
First of all, I suppose it comes down to a person's definition and perception of "holy" and "pure". For my arguement's sakePure-Free of foreign elements.
Containing nothing inappropriate or extraneousHoly-Belonging to, derived from, or associated with a divine power; sacred
In regards to Hadith Qudsi Before we can attribute anything as being "holy" or "pure", we must first prove that it is TRUE. If you have no proof of its validity, then how can you say that it is "pure" ? Anything (idealogies, rituals, cultural norms) extraneous or contradicting Al Qur'an cannot be "holy" (see above definitions).
Personally, the only sayings and actions of The Prophet that I have proven to be 100% accurate, pure, and holy are the words and actions found in the Qur'an...even when Rasullah makes mistakes in his actions (i.e. Surah 80 and the blind man), the report of these actions and sayings are "pure" and "holy" based on the aforementioned definition of these adjectives.
Today, extra Quranic Hadith cannot be "holy" because it's entire existance is extraneous from Al Qur'an and validity is difficult to prove. However, could Hadith Qudsi have existed back in Rasulallah's time? Very interesting question...
