This film has recently come to
the attention of Muslims in the Arab world when scenes from the film were
translated into Arabic and uploaded onto YouTube. Consequently, in the Libyan
city of Benghazi a group of people set the American embassy on fire, killing
the American Ambassador along with three other diplomats, who died as a result
of suffocation caused by the fire. In addition the American embassies in Yemen
and Egypt were attacked. Protests are also being held in Pakistan, Bangladesh
and other countries. These types of issues come up from time to time. Sometimes
a Danish newspaper prints cartoons with the intent to mock Prophet Mohammad and
now this new issue is a very blasphemous act.
The producer of the film has
shown that Prophet Mohammad was born two years after the demise of Abdullah
therefore they are saying the Prophet does not have a father. Unfortunately
Muslims cannot answer this question but I, being Representative of Imam Mehdi
Gohar Shahi, would like to answer this question and I would like the
whole word to take a note of this answer.
The producer may be very happy in
his heart that he has ignited an unanswerable debate and no Muslim can answer on
this subject. But His Divine Eminence Gohar Shahi is here, Imam Mehdi is here
and Imam Mehdi is going to do the justice.
Prophet Mohammad is as holy as
the Messenger in Judaism, as the Messenger in Christianity or any other Messenger
who may have been sent by God to establish any other religion. Other religions
may not believe that Prophet Mohammad is the Leader of the Prophets but they
will have to believe the fact that Prophet Mohammad is a true Messenger from
God and is the founder of the latest religion, Islam. Islam is a religion of
peace, a religion of love, a religion of cleanliness, but this is the first
time somebody has come up and presented, projected some contradictory points.
This is a very blasphemous act.
Blasphemy is of two types, one is to accuse somebody wrongly, disrespect them and
one is character assassination, to distort the reality, slander, place
allegations and to attribute somebody wrongly to that Personality. In my
opinion this is an ideological attack.
This film ‘Innocence of Muslims’
is not merely intended to blaspheme the Prophet of Islam but at the same time
it is aimed at distorting the image of the Prophet Mohammad and the image of
the religion of Islam and the goodwill of Islam and the authenticity of the
religion. This film is not a proper film. This film was shot and initially the
story was about ancient Egypt and then with some mischievous mastermind,
dubbing was done on the film. It is said the film is a $5 million budgeted
movie. That is not true; it appears to be a home production. The quality of the
film suggests that this movie was not created by Hollywood. Had it been created
by Hollywood it would have gone to the Toronto Film Festival, which never
happened. It is also learned through different sources available on the
internet like Reuters and other news agencies that the priest in Florida who
burned the Quran in Florida and then went to Michigan and did the same in
Michigan, is actively involved and he is being the centre of motivation behind
this film. A hate crime can go to any extreme.
Many questions are raised in the film
and many points have been slandered about and allegations and the image that
the producer has depicted of Islam and distortion of the image of Prophet Mohammad
is strongly deplored and it is vehemently deplorable. Such an act cannot be
attempted by any religious person no matter what religion does he belong to. As
far as my understanding is concerned, this is a conspiracy to provoke Muslims
and disturb the global peace at least one more time and to stir up the restful
minds of the citizens of the world.
Now, the producer said in the
film as he depicted that Prophet Mohammad was born two years later than the
demise of Abdullah therefore the Prophet does not have a father and they used a
b-word. It is true Prophet Mohammad was born two years after the demise of the
husband of the Prophet’s mother. So what? Jesus Christ doesn’t have a father at
all, what does it mean? I totally understand and I agree that Prophet Mohammad
was born two years later than the demise of Abdullah but what does it suggest?
A filthy dirty mind can think of one thing only. That is his problem and it has
nothing to do with reality. The problem is even the Muslims cannot comment on
this particular subject because their knowledge is very limited and if it is
not available in the Hadith (Prophetic Traditions) and in the Quran then they
are really helpless. They cannot say anything on this topic.
But I would like to convey this
piece of truth to the world and I would like to tell them that His Divine Grace
the Awaited Imam Mehdi, Gohar Shahi declares that Prophet Mohammad is not a son
of man. Prophet Mohammad is not son of Abdullah so it doesn’t matter whether he
is born after his demise or before his demise because it has nothing to do with
Abdullah. Prophet Mohammad is NOT the son of Abdullah and it should be clear in
the minds of everybody today.
Who is Mohammad?
You see sometimes God says
something which keeps your heart restive and keeps your mind wandering about
seeking for reality. When God is exhibiting his powers and his unknown
intelligence, maybe he forgets that what he is doing might appear to the world
as a contradiction. But unfortunately God is carefree and humanity has to pay
for his carefreeness. Now Prophet Mohammad was born two years after the demise
of Abdullah and then in Quran you hear a different story. The Quran says, ‘Say
I am a man like you.’
If you go into the depth and you have
the Spiritual Insight and you are spiritually connected with God and the Prophet
himself then you will find out what is the real story. But if you are dependent
upon what you read in the book it is not just possible to reach the reality
without being assisted by the Prophet himself or by God.
The Awaited One, Imam Mehdi Gohar
Shahi said Gabriel came to visit the mother of the Prophet, Amina (the same
angel who appeared to Sara the wife of Abraham). Sara was barren and she was
not able to produce children. There was something wrong with her ovaries and she
was not able to conceive a child. As a result of this incapacity of Sara, God
advised Abraham to find a concubine and produce a child. Therefore an Egyptian named
Hagar was approached and turned into a concubine and a child was conceived in
the womb of that concubine from Egypt, Ismael. Later on God wanted to test
Abraham, so when the child was still in his infancy, God commanded Abraham to
leave the child and the mother in the mountains of Mecca. So he did. Then a
series of miracles emerged. The little child was thirsty and he was running his
legs upside down on the mountain and water erupted from underneath his feet
which is now called ‘zam zam’. After God commanded Abraham to quit Ismael, his son,
and his concubine Hager, Abraham returned to Sara and sometime later the Archangel
Gabriel appeared and said to Abraham, ‘God is going to give you a child from
your barren wife.’ Look at the mysterious ways of God. He could have done it
before but he didn’t do it. Abraham said but she is a barren woman how can she
conceive a child? Gabriel said, ‘What God wishes, it happens.’ Abraham was left
with no other words but to say yes you are right and Gabriel ran his palm over
the backbone of Sara and this is how she conceived Isaac. Is there anybody in
the entire western, eastern, northern, southern world who could say with
authority and authenticity that Isaac is a son of man and his father is
unknown? Abraham’s wife Sara was barren woman. She was not able to conceive a
child but then she conceived a child who later on became the leader of Bani
Israel, Isaac. His father is unknown. If Prophet Mohammad’s father is unknown
today I do not see anything wrong with that. It doesn’t surprise me; it
shouldn’t surprise you either as long as you have some common sense in your
brain.
Now the father of Jesus not known,
the father of Isaac is not known. The leader of Christianity, the father of
Jesus is not known. The most authentic Prophet in the Abrahamic faith, the
father religion, Judaism is Isaac, the father of Bani Israel (Children of
Israel) and his father is not known. If Prophet Mohammad’s father is not known
it shouldn’t surprise you because your Prophetic ancestral system does not have
a father. But is it a bad thing not to have a father? If it is a bad thing not
to have a father then the entire humanity is bastard because Adam doesn’t have
a father. If not having a father is bad then the entire humanity is a bastard because
Adam doesn’t have a father and we are all children of Adam. Whether it is from
England, America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Pakistan,
India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, all come from one progeny, the progeny of Adam
and Adam doesn’t have a father. If he doesn’t have a father does it mean Adam
is a bastard? [Freedom of Speech] Why? Is it because he is Adam? He was created
by God in the paradise.
I agree Prophet Mohammad doesn’t
have a father. That is true. This is not a disputed matter. Prophet Mohammad
doesn’t have a father but then how was he conceived? How was he born? Who is
Prophet Mohammad? Who is his father? We know how Adam was created. It makes
sense because we all believe whether according to the Quran or Bible or Torah
or Talmud or Psalms of David, God is able to do anything. God can do anything and
not just the Muslims but also Christians and Jews believe it. God can really do
anything, even things that you cannot expect him to do.
His Divine Grace Imam Mehdi Gohar Shahi explains, ‘The same Archangel
Gabriel who appeared to Abraham and ran his palm over Sara’s backbone and Isaac
was conceived, the same Archangel Gabriel appeared to the mother of Prophet
Mohammad.’
What did he do? He brought a
white liquid with him and then he mixed a special Seed of Light which he
brought with him from the Higher Realms (Alam-e-Jabrout) and that seed is
called Shajarah tul Noor (Seed of Light). He gave it to the mother of Prophet Mohammad,
Amina. She drank it and with that drink she became pregnant. This is how
Prophet Mohammad was conceived.
Jesus
Christ was conceived after God used his power of Command Be. In the
Bible Jesus said I am the light of the heavens and the worlds. In the Quran God
said,
قَدْ جَاءَكُمْ مِنَ اللَّهِ نُورٌ
وَكِتَابٌ مُبِينٌ
[5:15]
Surely Noor (Divine Light), light
from God has reached you and the Holy Quran. Two things are mentioned in this verse,
the light from God and the Holy Quran. ‘Kitab un Mubeen’ is referred to the
Quran but what about this Noor? What is this Noor referred to? This Noor is
referred to Prophet Mohammad. This is Prophet Mohammad’s personal introduction
to himself.
Prophet Mohammad said that himself, ‘In the first instance when God
initiated the act of creation, the first thing he created was my Noor.’ (اول خلق اللہ ما نوری)
Then Prophet Mohammad said, ‘I am from the light of God (Noor) and
Momineen were created with my Noor.’ (انا من نور اللہ والمومنین من نوری)
Prophet Mohammad also said, ‘One who has seen me he has surely seen
God.’
The reality of Prophet Mohammad
is Noor. Prophet Mohammad doesn’t have a father, Isaac doesn’t have a father,
Jesus doesn’t have a father because these Personalities are special creations
of God and it is up to God what method of creation does he use, to produce such
Spiritual Dignitaries. It is entirely up to God. Sexual reproduction is not the
only way of production. There are many types of reproduction. For example a female
peacock drinks the teardrops of the male peacock and this is how the female
peacock becomes pregnant. This is not sexual reproduction, is it? There are
more than one ways of production so it is entirely up to God what method of
reproduction does he want to use. He is able to do anything and from time to
time he gives examples to let people know that he is using different methods.
Prophet Mohammad, in reality is
not a human being but the Light of God in the form of a human being. For
example, two angels, Harut and Marut were sent to Egypt and they taught
somebody magical words as a result of which they were punished by God and still
they are hanging upside down in a water-well in a city of Egypt, Babylon. They
came in the guise of a man but just because they came in the guise of a man
does it change their reality? It doesn’t change their reality.
To makes things simple, these
actors and actresses who appear in the movies, when they are playing a
character in the movie does it change their reality? It doesn’t change their
reality. In a similar way God has sent many different types of human beings. Some
human beings were made of fire and some human beings were made of clay. Some human
beings were made of clay from the Higher Realms, heaven, while most of the
humans were made with the clay of this earth.
Prophet Mohammad in reality is an
image of God. The Bible said God created man in his own image and Prophet
Mohammad said, ‘God said I created Adam in my own image.’ But as we understand
Adam is not the first creation. The first creation is the soul of Prophet
Mohammad. He created Prophet Mohammad in his own image. Jesus is also the image
of God. Abraham is also the image of God. If you disgrace, derogate, defame or
blaspheme these Holy Dignitaries you are only pushing yourself to hellfire. Not
only the fact that you are pushing yourself into hellfire by doing such indecent,
immoral acts but also it announces to the world how filthy, how dirty and how
immoral you are.
Indeed Prophet
Mohammad does not have a father but the Prophet Isaac and Jesus Christ also do
not have a father. The Prophet Isaac was conceived after the Archangel Gabriel
touched his palm on Sara's backbone and Jesus Christ was conceived after God
used his power of Command Be and the Prophet Mohammad was conceived after the Archangel
Gabriel gave Amina a white liquid mixed with a Seed of Light which she drank
and conceived Prophet Mohammad. If not having a father concludes to being a
bastard then the entire humanity is bastard because Adam too does not have a
father.
