The Birth of a Human Being

“It is We Who have created you. Why, then, do you not accept the truth? Have you ever considered that (seed) which you emit? Is it you who create it? Or are We the Creator?” (The Qur’an, 56:57-59)

 

Verses of the Qur’an regarding the developmental stages of a human being in the mother’s womb.

[We] then formed the drop into a clot and formed the clot into a lump and formed the lump into bones and clothed the bones in flesh; and then brought him into being as another creature. Blessed be Allah, the Best of Creators!

(Qur’an, 23:14)

 

Three Dark Stages of the Baby in the Womb

In the Qur’an, it is related that man is created through a three-stage process in the mother’s womb…. He creates you stage by stage in your mothers’ wombs in threefold darkness. That is Allah, your Lord. Sovereignty is His. There is no god but Him. So what has made you deviate?

(Qur’an, 39:6)

 The expression “fee thulumatin thalathin,” translated into English as “a threefold darkness,” indicates three dark regions involved during the development of the embryo. These are:

• The darkness of the abdomen
• The darkness of the womb
• The darkness of the placenta

IF ITS SAINT IS LIKE THIS …

Gurju Hatun (Georgian Lady), the daughter of a Seljuk Sultan and the disciple of Mawlana Rumi (قدس سره), sent Ayn al-Dawlah, the famous painter and muralist of the palace, to Rumi to paint his picture secretly and bring back to her. The painter somehow unintentionally told the situation to Rumi. With a smile on his face, Rumi said:

“Do, if you can, what you were told!”

The painter began to paint. However, at the end he realized that the picture he had been drawing had nothing to do with the person in front of him and restarted his painting. Thus, while trying to paint the portrait of Rumi, he wasted twenty pieces of paper. Finally, he realized that he was not able to do it and quit trying. (*)

This incident awakened the heart of the painter. He got lost in deep thoughts in amazement, awe, and shivering and it made him a traveler of his own universe. At the end, the painter, who saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ from the window that opened up in his heart, uttered the following words:

“If a saint of a religion is like this, I wonder how its Prophet would be!”

(*) These drawings are still in the Mawlana Museum.

The Messenger of Allahﷺ prays for us..

The Beloved Messenger of Allah ﷺ never yawned during his entire lifetime.

It is related that the Beloved Messenger ﷺ himself said, “No Prophet has ever yawned.” [Imam ibn Hajar, Fath al-Bari]

Yazid Ibn Al-Atham (May Allah be pleased with him) narrated: 
“Our Prophet Muhammad ﷺ has never yawned, either!”

Suyuti, ibid., 1/126; Ibn Al-Jawdhi, ibid., 381

HOLY SALIVA of the Prophet ﷺ

Regarding the saliva of ordinary people like you and I, it is mentioned that if one spits anywhere or on anything, then it is unhygienic and carries germs and harmful bacteria that causes illnesses. It is for this reason that one may even see a sign which says “Do not spit hear. It is unhealthy.” However the  (Holy Saliva) of the Holy Prophetﷺ is not unclean or does not cause illness but it is the cure to illnesses. Through it, severe illnesses are completely cured just as it has been mentioned in distinguished books/kitaabs. The blessed saliva of the Beloved Messengerﷺ worked as a miraculous cure for ailments.

• “…The Prophetﷺ was told that Ali (RadiAllahu Anhu) was suffering from eye-trouble, so he applied saliva to Ali’s eyes and invoked Allah to cure him. He at once got cured as if he had no ailment.” [Bukhari]

In Detail:

Hazrat Sahl bin Sa’ad (RadiAllahu Anhu) states that on the day of Khaibar the Holy Prophet ﷺ said,“Tomorrow I shall give the flag in the hand of such a person in whose hand Almighty Al’laah will give success and victory and he loves Almighty Al’laah and His Prophet .” The following morning all the Sahaba (alaihimur ridwaan) presented themselves in the Holy Court of the Holy Prophet ﷺ and each one wished that the flag would be given to him but the Holy Prophet ﷺ said,
”Where is Ali ibn Abi Talib _?’

The Sahaba-e-Kiraam (alaihimur ridwaan) said,
“His eyes are hurting (had an eye infection)”

The Prophet ﷺ said,
“Ask for someone to call him” Someone was sent to call Hazrat Ali . When he arrived, the Holy Prophet put his blessed saliva into his eyes and Hazrat Ali became well and he felt as if there never was any pain (in his eyes). [Mishkaat Shareef Pg.563 – Ash’atul Lam’aat {Persian} Pg.664 Vol.4 – Musnad Imam Ahmed Pg.53 Vol.4 – Mawahibul Laduniyah Pg.378 Vol.1]

• It has been quoted by Hazrat Sheikh Abdul Haq Muhadith Dehlwi (rahimahullah) , then by Hazrat Allama Qistalaani (rahimahullah) in his book Mawahibul Laduniyah and Allama Yusuf Nibhaani (rahimahullah) in his book Anwaarul Muhammadiya that:

Once the Prophet ﷺ gargled into a well, due to which the entire well became fragrant like kasturi and musk. [Madaarijun Nubuiwat Pg.11 Vol.1 – Anwaarul Muhammadiya Pg 200]

• When Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddique (RadiAllahu Anhu) was bitten by the snake in the Cave of Thawr,
Then the Holy Prophet ﷺ applied his blessed saliva on the snake bite and the discomfort which he (Abu Bakr) felt began to subside”. [Tafseer Roohul Bayaan Pg.433 Vol.3, Published Beirut]

300 Authenticated Miracles of the Prophet ﷺ

4. Prophecy of the Roman Empire’s victory over the Persians after facing defeat.

“The Romans have been defeated. In the nearest land, and they, after their defeat, will be victorious.” [Qur’an 30:2-3]

The Splitting of the Moon…

When the Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaahi wa Aalihi wasallam) started inviting the whole of humanity towards Islam and started granting them the belief in the unity of Allah Ta’ala and His own Prophethood, the Makkans wanted to stop His Da’wah activities. Thus, Abu Jahl called one of his friends Habeeb Yemeni to Makkah to stop the people of Makkah from embracing Islam. When Habeeb Yemeni reached Makkah, Abu Jahl started complaining about the Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alayhi wa Sallam). On listening to all of this, Habeeb Yemeni said that first he will meet Him.

He sent a messenger to the Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaahi wa Aalihi wasallam) that Habeeb Yemeni along with the elite of Makkah wants to meet at such and such a place. The Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaahi wa Aalihi wasallam) went there. It was a full moon night.

Habeeb Yemeni asked the Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaahi wa Aalihi wasallam):

What do you invite people to?

The Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaahi wa Aalihi wasallam):
That Allah is One and only and that I am the Prophet of Allah Ta’ala.

Habeeb Yemeni:
If you are Prophet, then what is your miracle as a sign of Prophethood?

The Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaahi wa Aalihi wasallam):
I am ready to show you whatever miracle you desire.

Habeeb Yemeni:
I want to see 2 miracles. One, that you split the moon and the second that you yourself tell me what I want.

The Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaahi wa Aalihi wasallam) along with all the chiefs of Quraysh, went to the mountain of Safa. He (SallAllahu Alaahi wa Aalihi wasallam) gestured at the moon with His blessed finger and immediately the moon split into 2 and everybody saw it with their own eyes. Then again the Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaahi wa Aalihi wasallam) gestured and the 2 parts of the moon rejoined.

After this, the Holy Prophet (SallAllahu Alaahi wa Aalihi wasallam), for whom Allah Ta’ala has made plain what lies in the hearts, told Habeeb Yemeni:

O Habeeb Yemeni! You have a daughter, who is blind, deaf and lame. You desire that she get cured. Go! Your daughter is cured.

He only had to listen to this, that Habeeb Yemeni recited the Kalimah Shahadah and entered the fold of Islam.

When he went to his house, he saw that the girl who was handicapped earlier is herself opening the door. He asked her: Daughter! What happened? She said: Father! I saw a dream that a very beautiful and radiant person came to me, made me a Muslim by reciting the Kalimah Shahadah and passed His hand over my body and I was cured that very moment.

[‘Aseedat ash-Shahadah Sharh Qasidat al-Burdah, Imam Umar bin Ahmad Kharbooti, Page 122]
