Prophet Muhammad and Abraham

Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)was a descendant of Abraham. Its details are as under: Abraham had two sons(1)Ismaeel,(2)Ishaq.

Ismaeel's descendant is Prophet Muhammad(PBUH), and Ishaq or Isaac’s descendants are Jews: Ishaq's son was Jacob, Jacob's surname was Israel, Jewish people are Banu Israel in Arabic, and descendants of Ismail are Banu Ismail in Arabic.

How many times did Prophet Muhammad PBUH Pray:

Prophet Muhammad PBUH used to pray many times voluntarily for example after midnight(tahajjud),at Ishraq, or after the sun raises, salat al dhuha, but before all mandatory prays except maghrib he used to pray, voluntarily, as he used to pray after all Farth or mandatory pray except Asr. It is noteworthy that the prophet had a special status in Nafl or voluntary prays, some voluntary prays we're mandatory for the Prophet as tahajjud pray. (سورۃالمزمل).He used to pray when he arrived from a journey. Thise All prays except five times Farth prays are not mandatory for the Muslim Ummah.

Which religion older Judaism, Christianity or Islam ?

Islam means obeying the order of God with the oneness of Almighty, this order brought by the Prophet of the age. According to the Holy Quran Islam not begins with the Prophet Muhammad, but Noah, Abraham, Moses were messengers of Islam. Therefore Islam is the older religion, it names are different in every era. Islam does not begin by the Prophet Muhammad PBUH, but he brought a new law, not a new Deen or religion. At the period of Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus (الدين)religion was Islam, but New thing which Prophet Muhammad brought is Sharia(شريعة) or the law or way of life.

Quran says: He has prescribed for you the religion which he had enjoined upon Noah and which we have also revealed to you, and which we had enjoined upon Abraham, Moses and Jesus, declaring, Maintain the religion, and do not be divided in it. (surtushura:13)

Allah says to the Prophet Muhammad in the Holy Qur'an: Say, O people of the book! (Jewish and Christian people)Come to a word common between us and you: that we will worship no one but Allah, and that we will not ascribe any partner to him, and that we will not take each other as lords besides Allah. But if they turn away, Be witnesses that we are Muslims. O people of the book!why do you argue concerning Abraham? Neither the Torah not the Evangel were sent down until after him.Do you not apply reason? Ah! You are the very ones who argue about that of which you have knowledge.why then do you argue about that of which you have no knowledge? And Allah knows and you do not know. Abraham was neither a Jew nor a Christian. Rather he was a hanif, a Muslim, and he was not one of the polytheists. Indeed the nearest of all people to Abraham are those who follow him, and this prophet and those who have faith, and Allah is the Guardian of the faithful.(Surat Al Imran:65,66,67,68)

Last days of Maulana Mohammad Ali Jauhar

Maulana Mohammed Ali Jauhar in 1923 was president of all India Congress party, later on, he became a founder member of All India Muslim League. In 1930 he attended the first Round Table Conference in London and delivered a significant speech, a part of his speech is noteworthy:

“I hope you will forgive this long introduction about my ill-health and ailments and all sorts of things; but the fact is that today the one purpose for which I came is this–that I want to go back to my country if I can go back with the substance of freedom in my hand. Otherwise, I will not go back to a slave country. I would even prefer to die in a foreign country, so long as it is a free country; and if you do not give us freedom in India you will have to give me a grave here.”

He died of a stroke in London on 4 January 1931 and was buried in the Holy City of Jerusalemby the choice of his relatives, friends and admirers, and not returned to their own slave country as he said in his speech incidentally.

About Khilafat movement, the one famous stanza of the poetry of the age necessarily needs to be mentioned:

بولی اماں محمد علی کی

جان بیٹا خلافت پہ دیدو

‘Muhammad Ali's mother said, to him: My beloved son! sacrifice yourself on the Khilafat.’

Maulana Shaukat Ali, the big brother of Mohammed Ali died in Delhi 1938, buried in the Park in front of Jama Masjid.
