Abrahimic Quartet Unity in Giving 20 per cent of the gains for unity of humanity in peace/Islam/Shanti

Unity is giving 20 per cent of the income is the command of Allahussamad in verse 8:41. This recieved from my Guru Mohtarma Zinat Khan shows the clear history of how enemies of  divinley chosne at the seat of prophet Muhammad SUH and HP distorted the clear meaning of the verse 8:41 for looting in the name of prophet Muhammad SUH and HP violating the command for obedience of prophet Muhammad SUH and HP through the one vested with authority by prophet Muhammad SUH and HP at Ghadir Khum. In our age, there is only one representing prophet Muhammad SUH and HP and prophet Abraham SUH and HP as this has been the case in past and this would be case in future in all the ages. Therefore, we need to inform all and explain on the clear command of giving 20 per cent of the gains which is called KHUMS in Arabic.

The History of Khums...and the Ignorance of the Muawiyans in understanding the word " Ghanimtum."

Sunnis who interpret the word ghanimtum:

as 'whatever of a thing that you acquire as spoils of war', thus confining the obligation of khums to the spoils of war only. 

The interpretation is based on ignorance of

        * the Arabic langauage
        * the history of khums
        * the Islamic laws
        * and the interpretation of the Quran

Please bear in mind that the word ghanimtum has been derived from al- ghanimah.

The meaning of the word Ghanimtum
=================================
The famous Arabic dictionary of al-Munjid (Father Louis Maluf of Beirut) states, al-ghanim and al-ghanimah means

        * what is taken from the fighting enemies by force
        * all earnings generally

Furthermore the saying "al-ghunm bil ghurm" means that profit stands against expenses, i.e, the owner is the sole proprieter of the profit and nobody shares it with him, therefore only he bears all the expenses and risk. 

For the readers satisfaction, they are also encouraged to look up
dictionaries like Lisan al-Arab and al-Qamus.

This implies that in the Arabic langauge ' al-ghanimah ' has two meanings, one is the spoils of war, and the other is profit. 

The above quoted proverb also proves profit is not an uncommon meaning. When a word in the Quran caninterpreted in more than one way, it is incumbent upon the muslims to seek guidance from the Holy Prophet (PBUH&HF) and the Ahl al-Bayt...not these Siddiquis, if you will !

====================
The History of Khums
====================
Khums is one of those things which were introduced by Abdul Muttalib (RA) the grandfather of the Prophet (PBUH&HF), and it continued in Islam when it was revealed in Quran. 

Acting upon a command of God given to him in his dream, when Abdul Muttalib rediscovered the well of Zamzam, he found in it
many valuable things that were buried in it very remote past by the Ismailites when they feared that their enemies would usurp them. 

When Abdul Muttalib found that buried treasure, he gave away one fifth ( literally khums ) in the way of God and kept the remaining four fifth to himself.

 Then it became a custom in his family to and after the Hijrah of the Prophet (PBUH&HF) the same system was incorporated in Islam. 

Thus the first khums was not given from the spoils of war, but from a buried treasure (which is one of the seven items eligible for khums ).

================
The Islamic Laws
================
Not a single Islamic school confines the meaning of ghanimah to the spoils of war. 

In addition to the spoils of war the following items are subjected
to khums

        * minerals: eligible in the Hanafi and the Shia
        * buried treasure: eligible for all the muslims.

As already mentioned earlier, the interpretation of the Quran must be based on the teachings of the Ahl al-Bayt. 

The word ghanimah in the verse under
discussion has been clearly interpreted as "the earned profit" (al- fa'idatul muktasabah) by our Imams.
=====================
Some Sunni References
=====================
To conclude, we can say that the word ghanima was never treated as being confined to the spoils of war by any Islamic school; and as far as our Imams are concerned, it meant many things besides the spoils of war right from the day of Imam Ali ( peace be upon him ), as many authentic traditions show.

What has been quoted above is substantiated from the practice of the Holy Prophet (PBUH&HF) as well. 

For example when the Prophet (PBUH&HF) sent Amr bin Hazm to Yemen, he wrote instructions in which, among many other things,he says ' ... to gather khums of Allah from the gains [ of Yemenis ]. Please refer to

    * Ibn Khaldun, Tarikh Volume 2 part II p54 ( Beirut 1971 )
    * Ibn Kathir, al-Bidayah wan Nihayah Volume 5 p76-77 ( Beirut 

1966 )
    * Ibn Hisham, Sirah Volume 4 p179 ( Beirut 1975 )

And when the tribe of Bani Kilal of Yemen sent Khums to the Prophet, the later acknowledges it by saying, ' Your messenger has returned and you have paid the khums of Allah from the gains ( al-ghanaim ). ' 

Please refer to

    * Abu Ubayd, al-Amwal p13 ( Beirut 1981 )
    * al-Hakim, al-Mustadrak Volume 1 p395 ( Hyderabad 1340 A.H )
    * Jafar Murtada al-Amili, al-Sahih fi Sirat al-Nabi Volume 3 p309
      ( Qum 1983 )

It is very interesting to note that the Bani Kilal obeyed Prophet's order and sent the khums of gains to him while no war had taken place between the muslims and the un-believers. 

This is a clear indication that khums was not restricted by the Prophet (PBUH&HF) to the Spoils of War!

The importance given by the Prophet (PBUH&HF) to the issue of Khums can also be seen in his advice to the delegation of Bani Abdul Qays. 

 It seems that Bani Abdul Qays ( which was a branch of Rabiah ) was not a very strong tribe. More over in order to travel to Medina, they had to cross an area inhabited by the Muzar tribe, which was against the muslims. 

 Consequently,the Bani Abdul Qays could not travel safely to Medina except during the months in which war fare was forbidden according to the Arab custom.

     Sahih al-Bukhari Hadith: 4.327   (pages 212-213)
     Narrated Ibn Abbas:

     The delegates of the tribe of Abdul Qais came and said: `O Allah's Apostle ! 

We are from the tribe of Rabia and between us and you stand the infidels of the tribe of Mudar, so we cannot come to you except in the Haram Months. 

So please order us some instructions that we may apply it to ourselves and also invite our people left behind us to observe as well. ' 

The Prophet (PBUH) said: `I order you to do four

 (4) things and forbid you to do four (4): 

I order you to believe in Allah, that is, to testify that None has the right to be worshipped but Allah (the Prophet (PBUH) pointed with his hand) ; to offer prayers perfectly, to pay Zakat, to fast the month of Ramadhan, and to pay the Khums.
     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Considering the facts that they travelled in the haram months ( when the war fare ) was forbidden, the circumstances of the Bani Abdul Qays who were weak and small in numbers ( evident from their travelling in the haram months ), it leaves no room for interpreting the application of khums in the above hadith on the spoils of war exclusively! 

Please refer for the above hadith to

    * Sahih Bukhari Volume 4 pp 212-213 
( Beirut )
    * Abu Ubayd, al-Amwal p13 ( Beirut 1981 )

In addition, the grammatical usage of the word "Ghaneema" in Arabic,means that certain things that a believer
acquires by way of a profit from a legitimate business deal or otherwise, is considered a "Ghaneema," and becomes subject to the laws and regulations thereof.

Of course there are exclusions.   

Exclusions to the Khums include,
but are not limited to, gifts, prizes, inheritance, a woman's dowry, etc...

The Sunnis have rejected that, EVEN though it is in the Book of Allah(SWT).  

Furthermore, it is narrated in Sahih al-Bukhari, v2, pp 136-137
that the Prophet (PBUH&HF) stated that any wealth that was buried under the ground in the Days of Ignorance (Ayam al-Jahiliyah) is subject to al- Khums.  

Moreover, Ibn Abbas, THE most trusted narrator of hadith in the
eyes of the Sunnis, said that pearls extracted from the ocean are subject to the Khums also.

It is apparent, that the Khums is NOT restricted to a booty from a war, as the Sunnis claim; rather, it extends to all of the above issues.
If a truly Sunni Islamic nation was to be established, it would fall short of fulfilling its financial obligations because it depends on the Zakat only, which is only 2.5% of one's wealth. 

Realistically speaking, can an Islamic nation, as the Sunnis contend, survive on 2.5% a year from the Muslim Ummah?  

Can it truly build an infrastructure that would support the
masses?  Can it build hospitals, schools, highways, etc...? 

No, it CANNOT, because 2.5% is NOT enough, not by ANY stretch of the imagination.

The Khums also serves another VERY IMPORTANT purpose in the CURRENT Shiite community.  

It helps the Mujtahids maintain an independence and separation
from the political implications which will happen if a religious scholar becomes dependent on the government for his bread and butter.  

That is EXTREMELY important.  

The Sunnis scholars in Muslim countries receive their
salaries from the government, which means that they CANNOT utter a word of objection to the policies of the ruler because their source of income will be threatened.  

The Shiite scholars, on the other hand, receive NO funding
from the government. 

This way, they are free to dedicate their lives to the
pursuit of justice for the community.

Now, for those wondering how the Shia treat the Zakat, then follow along.

The Zakat, according to Shiite jurisprudence (Fiqh),  is still encouraged (mustahab) to give out - in a similar way to how Sunnis apply Zakat (i.e. 2.5%).

There is also the Zakat al-Fitr, which is paid on the first day after the month of fasting, Ramadan, ends.

The Sunni legists have changed many aspects of the
religion of Allah (SWT), and I am NOT here to trash them; but be fair and judge the Shia objectively.

Once again I am forced to quote from your "Uthmani Text " so that atleast readers can know that you even do not know what is stated therein in your own text...you are just boasting....like a Saladin pagan !  

btw...did Uthman give you any copyrights to any of you ? If so show us the legal proof otherwise scholars and even NON-Muslims are free to review your "Two Textual Qurans" !!!! So stop whining huh ! 

Qaseemu....so you are saying that Muawiya is your "RA"...how? he killed Bibi Aeisha and looted the Caliphat...he killed Bibi Aeisha's brother Mohamed...they both were Caliph Abu Bakr's children....and then you say that the "Siddiq" was so revered by you that you accept the killings of his children by giving bayah to Muawiya "RA" - lol !!!? Why are you such pathetic liars ? 

What makes Muawiya a muslim and not Yazeed by your own empirical standards....as both were of the same calibre !

Okay start giving the share of Allah/Nabi and his relatives as mandated in the Quran including your Uthmani TEXT  over which the Siddiquis have copyrights given by Muawiya "RA" !!

And now read this properly....!!!

Contributions made by Muslim scholars...

"..The Abbassides did not expand the Islamic Empire but they built it up. They integrated non Arabs into the power structure, which was good.They did bring down the Mongols on Khawarizm, ..".(Says Siddiqui)

        Know that whatever of a thing you acquire, a fifth of it is for
        Allah, for the Messenger, for the near relative, and the orphans
        and the needy and they way farer ..... (Quran 8:41)

Thus Khums (literally one fifth of gain) should go to six people:

1. Allah
2. His Messenger
3. The near relative of the Messenger (Ahlul-Bayt)
4. Orphan
5. needy
6. the person who has fallen away from his home-town (and has no money to comeback to his own place).

The portion of Allah goes to His Messenger to be spent for the path of
Allah....against this backdrop the sunnis only give 2.5% (that is if they even give) being the poor rate and refuse to pay the first three shares as commanded by Allah swt...!

Abbasid vs Umayyad Empire

 Muawiyah, laid the foundation of the Umayyad Dynasty that was finally overthrown by Abbasid Dynasty.

• While Umayyad Dynasty ruled for nearly 100 years from 661 to 750 AD, Abbasid Dynasty, that overthrew Umayyad Dynasty, ruled for longer .
Abbasid Dynasty was overthrown by the Mongols in 1258 AD...thousands of muslims died...

• Despite the similarity of faith (both Umayyad and Abbasid Dynasty shared Muslim faith), there were many differences in the two dynasties that were to lay the foundation of the future of Islam in the world.

While the tenets of Islam took roots in the phase of Umayyad’s, all the expansion of Islam around the world took place in the times of Abbasids.

For one, Umayyad’s has much greater interest in the Mediterranean coast while Abbasids focused on the plains of Iran and Iraq.

This was the reason why Syria, Israel, Lebanon, and Egypt were important in the time of Umayyad Dynasty; the focus shifted to Iraq during Abbasid Dynasty.

Thus, one big difference between the two dynasties lies in their orientation towards the sea and land.
While the capital of the Islamic world under Umayyad Dynasty was Damascus, the capital of Syria, it shifted to Baghdad under Abbasid Dynasty.

• The role and power of women during Umayyad Dynasty was significant.

They were treated with respect and not secluded like wives and concubines and slaves as was the case in Abbasid Dynasty.
Women did not wear veils, and their advice was considered important in Umayyad Dynasty, while their position in the society degraded during Abbasid Dynasty.

So Siddiqui...you again lied !

"..Khums was for the Prophet pbuh. Zakat is 2.5 percent. As you don't know the Quran you don't know these things...."

Show me from the Quran that muslims have to give 2.5% "Zakat"? And who says that "Zakat" is "poor rate"? 

You are all corrupt to the core....you even try to fool Allah and HIS Nabi...You concede that the Khums was for Nabi...so then based on what do you say this? Quran? 

Then why did this stop at your end when your subsequent caliphs used to collect Khums and squander it ...do you want evidence?

Now in the bible its mentioned as "tithe"...then in the Quran...the words...Zakat, Ushr and Khums have been used and not just Zakat or sadaqa....and so the momins have been paying this since time of Nabi....its not a new phenomena.....and so the hypocrites have refused to pay the share of Allah and His Nabi and Nabi's relatives....!

Heh ! as you love Muawiya/Yazeed and Saladin sooo much...give to the masjids if you love them...but you don't love nobody...that is the hard truth !

 

The word "Zakat" has been used in the sense of "purification from the sins"...i.e. "Tazakiah"....

 

And this INCLUDES USHR (one tenth) ...

 

Many ran away as they never wanted to give the share of Allah and his Nabi....

 

And so  "Zakat" is both....charity plus "TAX"...NOT just charity.. and it became organized after Hijra....

 

And that apart from ...one is free to give more Charity...but voluntarily and it is known as "Ihsan"...or sadaqa...

 

Now you semi literate fools... "Zakat and Dasond" is an important part of the Madhab and Salat and Ushr/Khums.. has been mentioned together in the  Quran several times....but then you have never read the Quran...this then is the biggest problem...

Even though you hold Two qurans "as a vain forsaken thing" (as the Nabi says in the hadis)

 

And the Quran has not fixed the rate for "Zakat" but your dishonest Jurists made different rates from different sources

 

And they say that "this system adopted by Sunni Muslims is NOT based on the teachings of the Quran...

 

The Quranic verse is a clear injunction by Allah (SWT), the Creator of the Universe, to give out a FIFTH (Khums) of our wealth in the way of Allah (SWT) to the needy, orphans, etc....

Let's continue...

     The Prophet (PBUH&HF) said: "I command you to do four things: 

To believe in Allah (SWT); to establish prayer; to pay "Zakat"..; to fast Ramadan; and to pay the fifth of all you acquire for the sake of Allah (SWT)"

Sunni reference: Shahih al-Bukhari, v4, p44....Isn't this your SAHIH?
Now, the problem with the interpretation of the text is that the word
"Ghaneema -- Booty" is interpreted by the Sunnis as that wealth collected as part of a war. 

 

That is not an accurate interpretation of the Arabic
word. 

 

The Semitic languages, which Arabic belongs to, are based on the

verb form, not the noun form.  

As such, the translation of the word

"Ghaneema" is not all that accurate when the word "booty" is used.

The Shia, in conformity with Allah's (SWT) and His (SWT) Messenger's
(PBUH&HF) orders, pay 20% (a fifth) of their wealth at the end of every year.  ...even the past prophets have been ordered to pay....
