Prediction of the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h.)

about Murjea and Qadriyya

As the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h.) was aware of the future and the upcoming incidences, he informed the people of the forthcomings in order to control the indecent conspiracies laid by the traitors; and with his guiding words, he made the people aware of the inauspicious and dangerous future, and the birth of misleading ideologies and sects; so that the people not only do not get deceived by these misguiding sects and deviate from the path of Thaqalain (Quran and Ahlebait), but also control the turbulence created by these tyrannical governments. Although, unfortunately, people ignored the guidance of the Prophet (p.b.u.h.) and each group ran towards a separate direction while the Umayyad rulers went ahead with their desired way of governance.

          Now, we will present a few examples of the guidance provided by the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h.).

‘Just like the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h.) warned the people of the Umayyad dynasty and placed Walid in line with the Pharaohs and regarded him as one of them, he denounced the Qadriyya and Murjea sects even before the people came to know of them, and completed his reasoning for the coming centuries wholesomely and the first century specifically by saying: Two sects from my nation will not benefit from Islam, Murjea and Qadriyya.’[1]

          He also said: Beware of Qadr (and inclination towards Qadriyya), as it is a sect of Christianity.’[2]

          Similarly, he said: ‘Almighty God has cursed two groups of my nation from the tongue of seventy Prophets, Qadriyya and Jabriyya who claim that faith is just about testifying and it does not include actions.’[3]

          Likewise, he said about faith and Islam: ‘Faith is with heart and tongue whereas migration is with life and wealth.’[4]

          He also said: ‘Faith does not mean hope and pretension, but it is something that is situated in the heart and the actions bear witness to it’.[5]   

          He also said: ‘Faith and actions are two brothers in partnership who are tied with one rope and God will not accept any of them without the other.’[6]

          Similarly, he said: ‘None of you have accepted faith unless I am more beloved to him than his children, father and mother, and rest of the people.’[7]

          He also said: ‘Neither faith is accepted without actions, nor actions are accepted without faith’.[8]

          Similarly he said: ‘A person’s faith will not become firm unless his heart becomes firm, and his heart won’t become firm unless his tongue becomes firm, and he will not enter the heaven unless his neighbors remain safe from him[9]’.[10]
