معراج میں نماز کی فرضیت
“Every prophet was taught to pray 5 times a day. There is no reason to think that Prophet PBUH was not praying according to how Hazrat Jibrael taught him according to the Hadith I linked since early times of his prophethood.” This is purely conjecture, and not a shred of evidence in Quran exists to support this. Those who abandon clear verses of Quran and instead rely on hadiths are promised a painful retribution by God in 45:6-8: 45:6 These are the verses of God We convey to you with truth. Then, in what HADITH, if not in God and His verses, will they believe ? 45:7 Woe to every sinful fabricator. 45:8 The one who hears GOD’s verses recited to him, then insists arrogantly on his way, as if he never heard them . Promise him a painful retribution., “Anyone who suggest it was only two times instead of five needs to provide evidence that we can analyze otherwise the default view (that all prophets prayed 5 fives times all the time including early Makkah) will be held as Ghamidi Sahab said in the video.” Quran makes a clear case of two Salats: Salat ul Fajr and Salat ul Isha. If anyone deviates from Quran and wants to add more Salats to it, the onus is on them to present a counter evidence coming directly from the Messenger of God through Quran, not from the practice of past generations, which is strictly condemned by Quran (2:170, 31:21), nor from the opinion of scholars which is also condemned by Quran (9:31). However, unfortunately there is no such evidence. The tradition of 5-Salat would only have been correct, if one of the following hypothetical positions held true: 1. Quran stipulates two Salat, and the remaining Salat are to be taken from the practice of previous generations. This means that Quran is incomplete and provides only partial information. This claim is rubbish and goes patently against the clear verses of Quran (6:38, 6:114, 6:115, 10:37, 12:111, 16:89, 41:3). Quran repeatedly informs the Believers that it is a complete Scripture, does not leave out anything, fully detailed, and explains everything in detail (تبينا لكل شىء , تفصيل كل شىء, الكتب مفصلا , كتب فصلنه على علم , تفصيل الكتب) 2. God Almighty provided details of 2-Salat in Quran, and forgot to mention the rest three. This is again incorrect because God Almighty, by definition is an omnipotent and omniscient God who never forgets (19:64, 20:52). 3. God did not issue instructions for 5-Salat. Prophet instituted them on his own. This can’t be true because Prophet never instituted any religious practice without God’s commandment (69:43-46) 42:21 Or do they have partners who decree for them a sharia which has not been authorized by God? If it were not for the word already given, they would have been judged immediately. Indeed, the transgressors will have a painful retribution.
