The fundamental thesis that Maulana has covered in his book \u2018The Qur\u2019an and Russia\u2019s Destiny\u2019 clearly establishes the following from the primary scripture and source of knowledge in Islam, The Holy Qur\u2019an \u2013<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Rum is identified with Russia, and they will, with Divine aid, eventually become dominant against Gog and Magog civilization of the modern west.<\/li>\n
  2. Rum comprises of a Christian people who are prophesied to become closest in love and affection to the followers of Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa. The characteristic traits of these Christians are kindness and compassion to the followers of Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa.<\/li>\n
  3. Whilst they are Christian and the belief in the trinity is in their hearts, Allah does not consider them to be the same as other Christians who are now part of an unholy Judeo-Christian alliance.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    No other source, be it Islamic or historical, can ever supersede this foundation that the Qur\u2019an has laid, when it comes to ascertaining Muslim-Christian relations in these end times. The subject of the Christian King, the Negus of Abyssinia, becomes the focus point, when this unfolding Muslim alliance with Rum is scrutinized by critics who refuse to accept the lofty interaction, mutual consideration and exemplary conduct of the beloved Prophet\u2019s \ufdfa interaction with the Negus, as an example to be upheld by Muslims towards Russia and Orthodox Christians today. As such, this essay is written focused on a Muslim audience who lay their primary allegiance to historical sources rather than doing the same for the Holy Qur\u2019an. It will also benefit Christian readers in learning the warmth with which many Muslims (who grant their primary allegiance to the Qur\u2019an) are open heartedly welcoming the growing Orthodox-Christian and Muslims relations, in-sha-Allah!<\/p>\n

    (Behold, most certainly, there are those among the Ahlul-Kittab (Jews andChristians) who believe in Allah, and in that which has been revealed to you (i.e this Qur\u2019an) and in that which has been revealed to them (i.e. the Torah and the Gospel). They stand in awe of Allah and do not monetize the word of God to enrich themselves with gain. They shall have their due reward with Allah, and most certainly Allah is swift in reckoning!)<\/strong><\/p>\n

    Surah Aal-E-Imran, Verse 199. <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

    The beloved Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa \u00a0performed the funeral prayers for the Christian King, Ashama \u2013 The Negus of Abyssinia. It was in this context that Allah sent down the above holy verse, wherein he was still identified as one among the Ahlul Kitaab, rather than identifying him as a follower of Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa . The commentators of the Qur\u2019an are in a consensus in their understanding of the reason for revelation of this Holy verse; When the Negus passed, Allah informed the beloved Prophet \ufdfa \u00a0(who was resident in Madinah at the time) about the former\u2019s departure from the material realm. He then gathered his companions for the funeral prayer. Upon being enquired by them, he responded that the prayer was being held for the Negus Ashama, \u201cwho was a righteous man\u201d.<\/p>\n

    Strangely so, despite the Qur\u2019an identifying the King to have died as a follower of Nabi Isa Alayhi Salam, other historical sources almost entirely conclude that the Negus had concealed from his people, his decision to be a follower of the beloved Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa . By implication, it was because of this secret decision which he kept to himself that the Prophet \ufdfa \u00a0was commanded by Allah to perform the funeral prayer for the Negus. In this short essay, I am inspecting some of these sources and presenting my conclusions. My conclusion is that the information from the sources cannot be entirely reconciled with the knowledge that flows from the Holy Qur\u2019an and there are at-least five permanent problems when we attempt to do so \u2013<\/p>\n

    The gigantic biographies of Ibn Ishaq and Ibn Hisham both record a story, which suggests that the Negus tricked his people to hide his decision to be a follower of Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa . It is mentioned in these narrations that the people in Abyssinia went out against the Negus and blamed him for changing their religion.\u00a0 They cited the reason for this as the Negus\u2019s contentment with Ja\u2019far and the other companions, who held that Isa Alayhi Salam was an Abd (a creation who serves Allah). According to this story, when such a situation arose, he prepared a ship for the companions who had earlier emigrated to Abyssinia for safety from the persecutions of the Quraysh. The Negus advised the companions to use the ship and go elsewhere for safety if he were to become unsuccessful in his efforts to calm his people. He also informed them that if he were to become successful in his efforts, they could continue to live in his kingdom in complete safety. He then wrote the following in a paper:<\/p>\n

    and kept it inside his dress, in a pocket near to the right side of his chest. It supposedly contained the underlined statement wherein he let go of his trinitarian faith and accepted the position held by the companions of the Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa . The story continues, and he then went out to his people. Amidst the conversation he had with them, he cleverly planted a pitch to solve the crisis at hand by asking them what they believed about Jesus. When his people replied affirming their faith in the trinity, they in turn questioned him whether he held the same faith. The Negus then supposedly kept his hand over his pocket where the paper was and exclaimed \u201cI do not say anything other than this\u201d. The story suggests that he tricked his people by pretending to affirm with their trinitarian faith, whilst referring to what he wrote and kept hidden in his pocket.<\/p>\n

    Maulana has already quoted this story in his book, from Ibn Ishaq\u2019s biography of the beloved Prophet \ufdfa. Ibn Hisham quotes it from Ibn Ishaq in his biography as follows \u2013<\/p>\n

    (when he said this,) it was a reference to what he had written (and placed in his pocket). The Christian Abyssinians were satisfied and left the gathering. This news reached the Prophet <\/em>\ufdfa. So when the Negus died, the Prophet performed the funeral prayer for him and sought forgiveness for him.<\/em><\/p>\n

    The first problem that we encounter when trying to reconcile this story with the foundational understanding that we derived from the Holy Qur\u2019an is \u2013 Allah HIMSELF identified the Negus to be belonging to the Ahlul Kitab when HE sent down verse 199 of Surah Aal-E-Imran. Any efforts to reconcile this story would therefore dangerously imply that while human beings who learned of this story knew about the Negus\u2019s secret, Allah The All Knowing remained unaware about the same and declared that he was one among the Ahlul Kitaab.<\/p>\n

    If one gullibly accepts this story as a mere narration of what unfolded in history, it would be mistake; There appears before such a critic two sources now \u2013 One, is the Sabab-Nuzul<\/em> (reason for revelation) of the holy verse quoted above, which the Qur\u2019anic exegesis identify to be the death of the Christian King Ashama. The verse identifies the King to be one from Ahlul-Kitaab. The second is a historical biography which convey that the Prophet \ufdfa was aware of the Negus\u2019s secret faith and the incident during which he pulled a trick to deceive his people. While the first affirms the Negus\u2019s faith to be Christian upon his death, the second projects the meaning that the Negus had done away with the trinitarian faith of the Christians and chose to become a follower of Nabi Muhammad \ufdfa.<\/p>\n

    Honesty on the part of the critics will naturally demand an explanation for all the other narrations recorded in the various Tafseers, all of which clearly establish the reason for revelation of the blessed verse 199 of Surah Aal-e-Imran as the Christian Negus\u2019s death:<\/p>\n

    Al-Tabarani narrated on the authority of Wahshi bin Harb, who said: When Al-Najashi died, the Messenger of Allah <\/em>\ufdfa said to his companions, \u201cYour brother Al-Najashi has died. Stand up in prayer for him!\u201d Then a man said: O Messenger of Allah, how can we pray for him, who has dies in disbelief! He said: Do you not hear the words of Allah, and then recited the verse. <\/em><\/p>\n

    Maulana has quoted similar narrations from Jami\u2019ul Bayan of Imam At-Tabari and from the Tafseer of al Al Baghwi in his book \u2018The Qur\u2019an and Russia\u2019s Destiny\u2019. There are plenty more tafseer books which record the exact same reason for the revelation of the blessed verse. Let the Muslim critic therefore answer \u2013 What are we to do with these narrations? This is the first problem and the most important problem when we attempt to reconcile the story in the biographies with the understanding flowing from the Holy Qur\u2019an.<\/p>\n

    In addition to defending the Prophet \ufdfa for praying and seeking forgiveness for a Christian King, the above quoted narrations confirm that the verse was also revealed to affirm the Negus was not a Kafir or an apostate. When the hypocrites, mocked and criticized the Prophet by saying \u201che even prays for an apostate\u201d, Allah revealed the blessed verse in response confirming that the Negus was a believer in Allah and the Qur\u2019an, while believing in the previous scriptures! This confirms Maulana\u2019s view that once a Christian accepts the Holy Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa to be a true Prophet of Allah, believing the Qur\u2019an to also be the Word of God, he is no longer considered an apostate despite being in trinity.<\/p>\n

    The numerous narrations also deliver a clear understanding that while it is the beloved Porphet\u2019s \ufdfa\u00a0 example to enjoin fraternal relations between Muslims and those Christians, who, in addition to believing in their scripture, also accepts the Quran as the word of God and act righteously in accordance with faith in Allah, it is the example of the hypocrites to stir up discord and disharmony towards them by claiming them to be in apostacy and Kufr. \u00a0In fact, it is hypocritical to consider the Christians as being from another religion! The Prophet \ufdfa considered them to be within Islam (the one religion which all the Prophet\u2019s of Allah preached \u2013 which is submission to the Lord God Most High) by referring to the Christian King as a brother of his followers, it is therefore in the interest of the hypocrites to hide this truth and consider the followers of Nabi Isa Alayhi Salam as outside the fold of Islam!<\/p>\n

    II. The Beloved Prophet\u2019s <\/u><\/strong>\u0635\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648 \u0633\u0644\u0645<\/u><\/strong> letter to the Negus<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

    In a footnote to the hadith narrating the Negus\u2019s gift of black slippers to the Prophet \ufdfa recorded in Ash-Shama-il Al Muhammadiya published by Dar Ihya-u-turath Al Arabi in Beirut, it is mentioned that the Negus was Ashama, who had accepted Islam in the sixth year of Hijrah \u201caccording to most of the authorities\u201d. Here the term \u201cFA-ASLAMA\u201d in the footnote, used to mean \u2018he accepted Islam\u2019, is put forth to give the meaning that the Negus chose to become a follower of our beloved Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa.<\/p>\n

    The footnote mentions that the Prophet \ufdfa invited the Negus to become his follower through a letter he sent with the companion Amr bin Umayyah Al-Damri. It therefore becomes important to address the letters exchanged between them to verify if such an invitation was indeed sent and if the Negus did in fact decide to become a follower of the Prophet \ufdfa . Note that this is now a second reason being cited as a justification for the Prophet \ufdfa performing the funeral prayer for the Negus. The footnote complements the story discussed above from Ibn Hisham, as the objective of both appears to be to prove \u2013 \u201cthe Prophet \ufdfa never prayed funeral prayer for a righteous Christian! The latter was in fact, a follower of the Prophet \ufdfa. \u201c<\/p>\n

    On the authority of Hujayr bin Abdullah, on the authority of Ibn Buraidah, on the authority of his father: Al-Najashi* gifted the Prophet <\/em>\ufdfa two plain black slippers. The Prophet <\/em>\ufdfa put them on, then performed ablution and wiped over them.<\/em><\/p>\n

    Footnote – *Al-Najashi: By fat-ha over the Nun, was the title of the kings of Abyssinia. The name of the Negus was: Asahma. He was one of the kings whom the Prophet <\/em>\ufdfa invited (to Islam) in a letter he sent with Amr bin Umayyah Al-Damri. He wrote to him inviting him to Islam, so he accepted Islam in the sixth year of Hijrah, according to most people, and he died in the ninth year of Hijra. The Prophet <\/em>\ufdfa informed his companions of the death of the Negus and prayed for him in absentia. Muslims migrated to him at the beginning of Islam, so he honored them and returned the Quraysh delegation consisting of Amr ibn al-Aas and his two companions (against their request) without harming the Muslims.<\/em><\/p>\n

    A part of this footnote appears to be in favor of the hypocrites who criticized the Prophet \ufdfa for performing the funeral prayer for a Christian; the language of the footnote evidently considers any Christian to be living outside the religion of Islam, the One religion that the Lord God Most High sent to guide mankind!<\/p>\n

      From Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, to the truthful Negus, the king of Abyssinia: Peace and security be upon you! I praise Allah, (then he mentioned the holy attributes of Allah) and I bear witness that Jesus is RUH-ULLAH (Spirit that Allah blew into Mary) and HIS promise which He fulfilled through Mary – the pure and fortified virgin, and she conceived Jesus, by the Lord\u2019s creation of him from HIS spirit and blowing his soul into him, just as he created Adam with his hand and blowing into him. I call you to (obey) Allah, and I have sent to you my cousin Jaafar, and with him a group of Muslims, so prevent arrogance on them (on my behalf), (for this) I call you to Allah, and I have conveyed this (short) message as an advise, so accept my advice. Peace and security shall always be upon those who follow guidance!<\/em><\/p>\n

And he sent a letter with him: In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, The Most Merciful! <\/em>This is a letter from the Prophet Muhammad, to the Negus Ashama, the King of Abyssinia: \u201cMay Peace be Upon You, I praise Allah (then he mention HIS Holy attributes) I bear witness that Jesus, the son of Mary, is the RUHU-LLAH (Spirit of Allah) and His Promise which He completed through Mary, the pure and protected virgin, and she conceived Jesus. HE created him from his own spirit and blew into him as it HE created Adam with his own hand and blew into him. And I invite you to Allah alone, believe in HIM without associating a partner with HIM, and give your loyalty and obedience to HIM. And I call you to follow me and believe in me and in what has come to me<\/u>, I am the Messenger of Allah, and I have sent to you my cousin Ja\u2019far and a group of Muslims with him, so when they come to you, treat them well and safeguard them from arrogance. I invite you and your army to Allah<\/u>. and I have conveyed this (short) message as an advise, so accept my advice. Peace and security shall always be upon those who follow guidance!<\/em><\/p>\n

        It is to be noted that the variant recorded by Ibn Habban has the following characteristics \u2013<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. The Prophet\u2019s \ufdfa letter to the Negus emphasized on protecting Ja\u2019far and the other companions who had emigrated to Abyssynia for safety from Quraysh. In this letter, the Prophet \ufdfa explicitly mentioned to save them from tyranny of the Quraysh.<\/li>\n
        2. Twice in the letter the Prophet \ufdfa wrote \u201cI call you to (obey) Allah\u201d, once exactly before mentioning the need to protect his companions and once again exactly after mentioning the same!<\/li>\n
        3. The Prophet \ufdfa concluded the letter as being advisory in nature. – \u0648\u0642\u062f \u0628\u0644\u063a\u062a \u0648\u0646\u0635\u062d\u062a \u0641\u0627\u0642\u0628\u0644 \u0646\u0635\u064a\u062d\u062a\u064a<\/li>\n
        4. The Prophet \ufdfa also spelled out the lofty status of Jesus, Nabi Isa Alayhi Salam and his virgin mother Mary alayha salam!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          There is nothing in the variant recorded in Ibn Habban\u2019s book that contradicts the understanding derived from the Holy Qur\u2019an, that the Negus died a Christian. Contrary to this, the first of the doubtful narrations quoted above contain an Ayah of the Holy Qur\u2019an which was not revealed at least until the 9th<\/sup> year of Hijrah. Ayah 64 of Surah Aal Imran was revealed when the Christians of Najran visited the Prophet \ufdfa . Imam Ar-Razi mention in his Tafseer Mafateeh Al Ghaib –<\/p>\n

          And know that when the Prophet <\/em>\ufdfa presented to the Christians of Najran various kinds of evidence and yet they obstinately refused, then he recited (Ayah 60-63, in which Allah threatened them by granting the Prophet permission to) invoke a curse on them, so they feared (this) and accepted to give the Jizyah. (When they accepted to pay the Jizyah) the Prophet (sensed this fear in their hearts) and (in his heart) concern grew (for them) , so (this ayah) was like Allah saying: \u201cO Muhammad, you no longer have to invoke curse on them. Embark now on a different way such that every person with sound mind and upright character bears witness that yours is speech based on fairness and devoid of arguments\u201d. And tell them: \u201cO People of the book! Let us come to a common word between us and you, that is, come to a word that contains fairness to both sides and in which there is no inclination to drift away for either of us – \u201cWe serve none but Allah without associating partners with him in anyway\u201d.

          Concerning Allah\u2019s words \u2018O people of the book\u2019 (Ya Ahlal Kitaab), there are three opinions. The first is that it refers to the Christians from Najran, the second is that it refers to the Jews in Madeena and the third is that it includes both sides. There are two aspects (to evaluate this). The first is (to check) the apparent meaning of the word (i.e. People who have been granted a scripture. It will then apply to both Christians and Jews). The second is (to examine) the reason for revelation of this ayah, (one opinion is that) it was (revealed) when the Jews said to the Prophet <\/em>\ufdfa<\/em> \u201c<\/em>You only want us to take you as a Lord just as the Christians took Jesus!\u201d And the Christians said: \u201cO Muhammad, all you want is for us to say about you what the Jews said about Uzayr! In my view, it is most likely that (the word Ya Ahlal Kitaab) refers to the Christians! Because as I already explained, The Prophet presented evidence to them first and then (was Divinely required to) invoke a curse on them (if necessary). Then (when they accepted to pay the Jizyah) he was (Divinely required to) address them by a speech which was caring, based on fairness, devoid of argumentation, and seeking bonding and clarity (in mutual relations, just as the Ayah 64 says). <\/em><\/p>\n

          What points to this understanding (or the proof of my view that Ya Ahlal Kitaab here refers to Christians) is how they are addressed with the words \u201cYa Ahlal Kitab\u201d. This is the best title to address them because by it, (it is being acknowledged that) they are worthy of having Allah\u2019s book amidst them. <\/em>It\u2019s like addressing one who has byhearted the Qur\u2019an as \u2018one who carries the Qur\u2019an\u2019 and one who does Tafseer of the Qur\u2019an as an \u2018explanator of God\u2019s words!\u2019 This title indicates that the arguer wanted to exaggerate in venerating the addressee and in anointing this in the latter\u2019s heart. It is only mentioned when a person turns away from the way of argumentation and dispute with his opponent, to the way seeking justice. <\/em><\/p>\n

          Imam Ar-Razi\u2019s position can be better understood when we examine his explanation of Ayah 59 of the same Surah, wherein he mentions \u2013<\/p>\n

          The commentators have unanimously agreed that this verse was revealed in the presence of Najran before the Messenger <\/em>\ufdfa<\/em>\u00a0 . <\/em><\/p>\n

          The verse 59 of Surah Aal-E-Imran came down during the Prophet\u2019s engagement with the Christians of Najran. When they obstinately refused to accept the truth, then came the verses 60-63 detailing the Prophet\u2019s warning of Mubahala to them (i.e. invoking a curse on them). Subsequently, when they feared and accepted to give political authority to the Prophet \ufdfa <\/em>\u00a0by paying the Jizyah\u00a0 , <\/em>they were addressed in a lofty manner in verse 64. This is the summary of Imam Ar-Razi\u2019s reason for identifying the Ahlul Kitaab in this verse as the Christians of Najran.<\/p>\n

          The first of the doubtful letters also appears to be in a demeaning and threatening tone. It would be extremely unwise of anyone, save a Prophet of Allah, to impose belief upon another by threatening the latter with Divine sin. More so, to do that when he is sending his own followers to that very same king for safety!<\/p>\n

          The added words convey the meaning that the beloved Prophet \ufdfa supposedly invited the Negus to become his follower. It also gives the impression that the letter was non-advisory in nature. It therefore contradicts itself and Ibn Habban\u2019s variant. The words appear to be an infiltration into the original text of the letters. With their addition into the text, the letter now appears to be one similar to those which were sent by the Prophet \ufdfa\u00a0 to other rulers after the conquest of Makkah.<\/p>\n

          Once Makkah was peacefully conquered, it laid the seat of the Divine caliphate in Arabia and the letters were sent to different rulers as a strategic foresight to prepare them for the rise of the caliphate as a superpower in Arabia in the fore-seeable future. Peaceful coexistence and mutual cooperation in foreign relations with the Divine Caliphate could only be possible for their states, if they recognized the truth in the Prophethood of Nabiyuna Muhammad \ufdfa , as the caliphate was essentially a religious state.<\/p>\n

          The letter sent to the Negus Ashama however, was in the sixth year of Hijrah. It was also sent in response to the Qurayshi delegation commencing on their journey to extricate the companions and Ja\u2019far from Abysinia back to Makkah. So, it does not suit the context of this letter to comprise these additional words. If we are to try reconciling these letters with the Qur\u2019an, now we must face the next two problems \u2013<\/p>\n

            \n
          1. How can the letters which were written to the Negus during or before the sixth year of Hijrah contain a verse which was only revealed in the ninth year of Hijrah when the Christians from Najran came to visit the Prophet \ufdfa in Madinah?<\/li>\n
          2. Why would the Prophet \ufdfa demand a King to be his follower when he is sending his vulnerable followers to that very same King for safety? Why would he do so in a threatening manner rather than being advisory in nature?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

             <\/p>\n

            III. A Chronology of events <\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

            Initially, Uthman Bin Ma\u2019dhun and his companions migrated to Abyssinia, seeking refuge from the harsh treatment in Makkah. During this period, Surah An-Najm is revealed to the Prophet, but Satan causes some confusion among the Quraysh. After they all performed Sajdah with the Prophet \ufdfa , sue to Satan\u2019s confusion, the external impression was that all of Makkah now beilived in the Prophet\u2019s call, and accepted his message. This lead Uthman and his companions to return to Makkah, believing that the Quraysh had embraced Islam.<\/p>\n

            However, upon their return, they encountered renewed hostility and severe persecution from the Quraysh. In response, the Prophet \ufdfa sent Ja\u2019far and his companions back to Abyssinia for safety.<\/p>\n

            When the Quraysh sent Amr Bin Al-As and Umarathu Bin Al-Waleed to retrieve Ja\u2019far and his companions, they attempt to win the favor of the Negus with gifts. However, upon hearing of this, the Prophet \ufdfa sends a letter to the Negus via Amr bin Umayyah Al-Damri, reinforcing their plea for protection.<\/p>\n

            The Negus does not comply with the Quraysh\u2019s demands but instead investigates the situation, summoning Ja\u2019far and questioning him about their beliefs. Upon hearing their answers, the Negus recognizes the truth of their faith, which aligns with the message of Jesus (Isa Alayhi Salam). Consequently, he declines the Quraysh’s request for extradition and allows Ja\u2019far and his companions to remain in Abyssinia, imposing strict penalties on anyone who might harm them.<\/p>\n

            It is evident that the Negus was receptive of Ja\u2019far and the other companions with him. The beloved Prophet\u2019s \ufdfa response of sending a letter through Amr bin Umayyah Al-Damri<\/em> should have reached Abyssinia before the Qurayshi delegation, as it would have been more convenient for Amr to travel swiftly than a big delegation. Had the letter been threatening in nature, the accusations that the Quraysh raised before the Negus against the companions would have immediately succeeded and they would have been extricated back to Makkah for further torture and persecution. So, those who still hold on to the doubtful variants will now have to encounter another (the fourth) problem \u2013 Why would the King be receptive of companions if a letter first arrived threatening him to protect them, and then later a delegation arrives accusing them of severing social ties, demanding for them to be extricated for punishment?<\/p>\n

            If an argument is put forth by the critic that there is no evidence of the letter reaching the King before the Qurayshi delegation, then that would imply that Allah guided the Prophet \ufdfa \u00a0to send a letter to the King and caused that effort of the beloved Prophet \ufdfa \u00a0to be a waste!<\/p>\n[Refer to the chapter \u2013<\/p>\n

            As the reliable variant did not contain an invitation for the Negus to join the community of our beloved Prophet \ufdfa , and since this is the only variant which is in harmony with that truth emanating from the Holy Qur\u2019an, it is in its light that we must carefully read the variants of the Negus\u2019s response to the Prophet \ufdfa.<\/p>\n

But amidst their journey, a strom overcame them and they all drowne. <\/em><\/p>\n

            The underlined words appear to be addressing the infiltrations which we noted earlier in the doubtful variants, as the beloved Prophet \ufdfa \u00a0did not demand the bay\u2019ah from the Negus Ashama. Rather, his \ufdfa \u00a0intent in sending the letter through Amr bin Umayyah Al-Damri<\/em> is clearly known from the chronology of events. We also have located a reliable variant of that letter which is in total harmony with the Holy Qur\u2019an. Another issue is that while we have enough evidence of continued collaboration between the beloved Prophet \ufdfa \u00a0and the Negus further on, there is once again an absence of evidence of such a response letter ever reaching the Prophet \ufdfa \u00a0from Abyssinia.<\/p>\n

            If such a letter had ever reached the Prophet in Yathrib, it would \u2013<\/p>\n

              \n
            1. Substantiate the story to be true, as the response mentions that the Negus wrote \u2018he is a solitary person amidst his people, when it comes to accepting the Prophet \ufdfa \u2018 .<\/li>\n
            2. By implication, it would establish that the Negus had actually accepted to be a follower of our Prophet \ufdfa – by pledging allegiance to Allah through the hands of our Prophet.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              Then there would be no room for the hypocrites to mocj the Prophet \ufdfa performing the funeral prayer for a Christian as it would have been well known that he was a follower of the Prophet. The fifth problem which we encounter here is that \u2013 the sources themselves convey that such a letter never reached the Prophet \ufdfa\u00a0 in Yathrib, as the Negus\u2019s son the sixty others drowned en-route to Yathrib along with the letter. Then, such a response letter comprising of the (above) underlined words, which is manifestly in conflict with the Qur\u2019an (for the above two reasons), also happens be from an anonymous source as the original letter never reached the Prophet \ufdfa !<\/p>\n

              It is entirely possible that the Negus did write a letter to the Prophet \ufdfa\u00a0 \u00a0in response to the letter which he sent with Amr. However, since the contents of the Prophet\u2019s initial letter to him was only advisory in nature and intended on requesting protection for Ja\u2019far and the other companions, we can only accept parts of the Negus\u2019s reply, to the extent that it does not contradict a variant of the Prophet\u2019s \ufdfa\u00a0 letter which is in harmony with the Holy Qur\u2019an.<\/p>\n

               <\/p>\n

              V. An Understanding reserved for the End Times. <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

              When this Christian Negus passed on from this world, The prophet \ufdfa performed the funeral prayer for him, and in doing so, sought forgiveness for him, despite the latter having died believing in the trinity. He instructed his followers to perform the funeral prayers for him and therefore to seek forgiveness for him, despite the latter having died believing in the Trinity. In his book, Maulana has gathered numerous verses of the Holy Qur\u2019an which prove that Allah approves some Christians even though he rejects their belief in the Trinity \u2013<\/p>\n

                \n
              1. Allah says that they are not all the same, and there are those amongst the Christians who recite HIS holy verses in long hours of the night (Qur\u2019an 3:113).<\/li>\n
              2. The Prophet \ufdfa and the companions celebrated when Christian Byzantium gained victory over Pagan Persia as prophesied in Surah Ar-Rum. (Qur\u2019an 30:2-6).<\/li>\n
              3. Allah promised Nabi Isa Alayhi Salam that some of his followers will be dominant over the Jews until the Day of judgement, when they do gain such an upper hand (Qur\u2019an 3: 55).<\/li>\n
              4. Allah mentions that their Qiblah is still valid for them (Qur\u2019an 2:145).<\/li>\n
              5. They would commemorate the last supper in the end times (Qur\u2019an 5:114).<\/li>\n
              6. Allah says in the Qur\u2019an that Nabi Isa Alayhi Salam, who is a Prophet of Allah, will seek forgiveness for some of his followers, despite their belief in the trinity (Qur\u2019an 5: 116-118).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                These foundations which the Quran provide make it easy to gather that the Prophet \ufdfa himself set an example of maintaining close friendship and alliance with that part of Christianity which still has faith, which does not ally with oppressors and which projects kindness and compassion to his followers. His example is to traverse beyond beliefs and establish an alliance with them based on conduct and righteousness, and this understanding is strongly based on foundation from the Holy Qur\u2019an. When we see the event of the Prophet \ufdfa sending few of his companions for safety to Abyssinia in this light, it can be easily understood that the letter which he sent to the Negus should have been advisory in nature.<\/p>\n

                The Prophet \ufdfa sent gifts to the Negus and received his delegation of priests while serving them with his own hands! The Prophet \ufdfa also hinted a haven in Rum for his later followers, through his marriage to our mother Umm Habiba (Radhiyallahu Anha). The beloved Prophet \ufdfa married her while she was in Abyssinia. The Negus paid a Mahr (bridal gift paid by the husband to the wife at the time of marriage) of 400 Dinars on behalf of the dear Prophet \ufdfa and hosted a splendid wedding feast for the attendees. The Negus also gifted the Prophet \ufdfa and all this suggests a continuous healthy relationship between the Christian Negus and the beloved Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa. In fact, in allowing the Negus to pay Mahr on his behalf and in performing Wudu (ritual purification) by using the gift he received from the Negus, the beloved Prophet \ufdfa has demonstrated something more than mere friendship with such Christians. It was both a validation of Allah\u2019s approval of them and a persuasion to his followers to establish close brotherly ties of friendship and love towards them.<\/p>\n

                The emergence of Russia today as a superpower in the world, powerful enough to challenge the godless modern western civilization (which converted the whole world into a global godless society) made it possible for Maulana to realize Rum in Akhiru Zaman to be Christian Russia, by Allah\u2019s grace! Once that realization occurred, it was only then that we could see the strategic importance of cementing and maintaining close friendship and alliance with orthodox Christians and Russia. This understanding therefore appears to be one Divinely preserved for the right moment in history which is now at hand. It seamlessly opens the hearts of both the followers of Prophet Muhammad \ufdfa and the followers of Jesus, Nabi Isa Alayhi Salam to each other, as their relation now traverses beyond their conflicting beliefs, just as it did for the Negus and the companions of the Prophet \ufdfa who came to Abyssinia for safety. They consider themselves to be brothers and part of the same one Religion that Allah sent with all the Prophets (May peace be upon them all). The Prophet \ufdfa explicitly mentioned in his letter what he and his followers believed about Nabi Isa Alayhi salam. The Negus was aware of this belief that the companions held, yet granted them safety and security!<\/p>\n

                It was simply impossible to arrive at such a conclusion regarding the Negus having died as a Christian and the Prophet (S) having performed the funeral prayer for a Christian, so long as our two people remained hostile to each other, owing to the deception of Dajjal and Gog and Magog. \u00a0The tide is changing, and it will continue to do so, in favor of Muslim \u2013 Christian-Rum alliance!<\/p>\n

                Alhamdulilah!<\/p>\n
