God commanded the Jews to venerate Friday, so they obeyed - as is their custom - and presented their opinion and said, Rather, we glorify the saturday ; God began the creation on Sunday, and ended Friday, and “rested on Saturday.” This is how they lied to Him, the Most High, about what they say.
The Christians followed their path, and followed their path and path in stubbornness and defiance of God, so they chose Sunday over Friday on the grounds that God began the creation in it.
Narrated by Bukhari and Muslim from Abu Hurayrah that the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him, he said: (We Former others the Day of Resurrection, but they were given the book by us, then this day imposed on them, then they missed it, and God quide us for friday , people where we followed the Jews tomorrow, and the Christians the day after tomorrow).
Imam Al-Suddi said: “God imposed on the Jews on Friday, but they refused and said, O Moses: God did not create anything on Saturday, so make the Saturday for us. Narrated by Ibn Abi Hatim.
God forbade the Jews to work and hunt on the Saturday , and He, Glory be to Him, afflicted them with their immorality and slander, and this was what plagued the people of the village that was near the sea; So if the Saturday came, the fish and whales came, legally, white, fat, floating, looking at them, and if the Sabbath ended and went, the whales went away, and they did not see them until the next Saturday, and if it was Saturday, they returned to them as well. The Almighty said: {Thus We will test them with what they used to transgress} (Al-A’raf).
They remained on that as God willed, then their evil souls refused to be patient in obeying God and refused anything but disobedience.. So they circumvented God’s command by deception and deception, as it always and forever condemned them. .
Some of them used to make ponds and ponds near the sea, and if the fish came on Saturday and fell in the ponds and ponds, they prevented him from returning through barriers they made between the ponds and the sea, then they took out the fish on Sunday.
Some of them used to put traps and nets on Saturday, so that the fish would fall into them, then they would only take out on Sundays, deceiving and deceiving, claiming that they did not catch them on Saturday.
Some of them catch the whale and pierce its nose and tie a string to it that has been struck with a peg on land, then throws it into the sea, and if the next day takes it out.. and all of this has been transmitted from them, and it is satanic and childish tricks that no one imagines using them to circumvent the Lord of the wilderness, Glory be to Him.
The Prophet warned his nation against such evil ways, Satanic ways, and satanic tricks to circumvent the legal orders, saying: (Do not commit what the Jews did, so you would take the prohibitions of God with the slightest tricks). Ibn Kathir said: Its chain of transmission is good.
And among them were those with dreams and intellects, but they forbade them and said, “You take it, and God has forbidden it to you on the Saturday .” So they only increased in jealousy and stubbornness. And perhaps they will be pious.” (Al-A’raf:).
When the forbidders saw that the people were not finished, they separated them and struck a wall between them, fearing that the torment would descend upon them and afflict them all.
One morning, they did not hear a sound from them, nor did they see anyone from them. A man among them did the wall that was between them and said: “O servants of God are monkeys, and God howls for them tails, God has transformed them into monkeys.. and people entered them knowing the man by eye, and that he is a monkey and the woman in particular, and that she is apes, and the monkeys knew their lineage.” So the monkey made his human relative come to smell his clothes and weep.. So the human would say to them: Did we not forbid you to do that? He nodded: Yes.
{And you knew of those who transgressed among you on the Sabbath, so We said to them: Be apes, deceivers} (Al-Baqarah)
The people of interpretation have narrated that those who were transformed were about seventy thousand, and it was reported from Ibn Abbas and Qatadah: The youth of the people became apes and their old men became pigs. And the people remained monkeys for three days, then died without being followed.
Muslim narrated on the authority of Ibn Masoud, he said: (A man said, O Messenger of God...Apes and pigs are mutated? He said that God did not destroy (torture) a people by making them offspring, and that monkeys and pigs were before that.
cross and benefits
And in this story, through great sermons, including:
. The obligation of enjoining good and forbidding evil whenever possible, with the hand, tongue and heart, as it came from the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him: (On the authority of Abu Saeed al-Khudri, who said: I heard the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, say: “Whoever among you sees an evil, let him change it with his own hand, and if he is unable to do so. With his tongue, and if he is not able to do so, then with his heart, and that is the weakest of faith.” Narrated by Muslim.
. If a person gives advice as much as he can and does not respond to him, then let him withdraw from the people of heresy, sin and immorality and not join them in their gatherings so that he does not suffer the torment if it befalls them..
Al-Bukhari and Muslim narrated on the authority of Ibn Umar - may God be pleased with them: The Messenger of God, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, said: (If God sends down a torment on a people, the torment befalls them.
Ibn Hajar said: It is understood from the hadith that it is legal to flee from the infidels and from darkness; Because residing among them is from self-loathing to perdition, if he does not help them and is not satisfied with their actions, then if he helps or accepts, he is one of them.
. God gives patience and does not neglect, and that His torment is painful, and His taking is severe, so let every person beware of God’s wrath, and know that He knows his condition and sees his place.
. The penalty for fraud is great, because it is greater than mere disobedience, for it is a disrespect for the greatness of God, mockery and a search for tricks to get out of obedience and make it permissible for what God Almighty has forbidden.
The metamorphosis in this nation
. And just as the real metamorphosis occurred among the Children of Israel as a punishment for the ugliness of their actions, the Prophet, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him, told that such a metamorphosis that occurred in the previous nations will occur in this nation and will afflict the owners of abomination and those who make forbidden things permissible.
Bukhaari narrated from Abu Malik Ash'ari The Messenger of Allah peace be upon him: (There will be among my ummah people regard as permissible free silk, alcohol and musical instruments, gives them - means the poor - the need say: go back to us tomorrow, Viphethm God puts down the flag and turns others into apes and pigs until the Day of Resurrection).
On the authority of him, may God be pleased with him also, he said, may God’s prayers and peace be upon him: “People from my nation will drink wine, calling it by other than its name. Musicians and female singers will play on their heads, and God will eclipse them in the earth and make them monkeys and pigs.”
And according to Ibn Hibban with an authentic chain of narrators on the authority of Abu Huraira who raises it to the Messenger of God: (The Hour will not come until there will be in my nation eclipse, deformation and slander).
Ibn al-Qayyim, may God have mercy on him, said in his book Ighaath al-Lahfan:
The news has demonstrated the occurrence of metamorphosis in this nation, and it is restricted in most hadiths to the people of singing and those who drink alcohol, and in some of them it is absolute.
Salem bin Abi Al-Jaad said: “Let the people come to a time when they gather at the door of a man who is waiting for him to come out to them, so they ask him for something, and he comes out to them having transformed into an ape or a pig... And the man passes on the man in his shop to sell, and he returns to him as he has been transformed into an ape or a pig.”
And Abu Huraira, may God be pleased with him, said: “The Hour will not come until the two men walk to an order and do it, and one of them becomes an ape or a pig. The one who escaped from both of them does not prevent what he saw in his companion from walking on his own until he fulfills his desire for it.”
Abd al-Rahman bin Ghannam said: “There will be two neighborhoods adjacent to each other, and a river will split between them, and they will draw from it, one cape that will pull each other from each other, so one day they will be eclipsed by one of them and the other will be alive.”
He also said, may God have mercy on him: “At the point that two people will be sitting on a mill, grinding, and one of them will rot and the other will look.”
real monster
And this metamorphosis in which these hadiths and the sayings of the scholars are mentioned, they only mean the real metamorphosis, and not the resemblance in some of the attributes, as Ibn al-Qayyim said:
Some of the people of knowledge said that if the heart is characterized by cunning, deception and immorality and is completely characterized by that, then its owner will follow the creation of the animal described by this, such as monkeys, pigs, and others, then this description continues to increase in him until it appears on the pages of his face as hidden, then it strengthens and increases until it becomes visible on the face. Then he becomes stronger until he overturns the outward form as he overturns the inner form, and he who has complete intuition sees on the images of people a terrifying image of animals that are created with their morals in the interior, so say that you see a cunning, deceitful, deceitful impostor, except on his face a monstrosity...
But the metamorphosis that came in the verse and the hadiths is a real metamorphosis, in which a man turns a monkey or a pig into a complete metamorphosis, as the one who saw them said: “Monkeys and by God, tails howling for them.”
We seek refuge in Allah from His punishment and torment, and we ask Him, Glory be to Him, for wellness in this world and the hereafter.
