Mufti-e-Azam Pakistan Mufti Rafi Usmani (HA) on being Deobandi!

Now you are back to being British instead of South African so lets go…

Bi’dah is addition to the Deen without foundation, categorisation as “Sunnah” and action with intention of rewards. The reason reading Kalimah 12,000 in the Chishti Silisla is not Bid’ah is because:

1. It is not an addition to Islam i.e. recitation of Kalimah is an established fact.
2. It is not classed as Sunnah
3. There is no reward associated with reciting it 12,000 times. In other words reward is in reciting the Kalimah and not reciting the Kalimah 12,000 times (specifically).

Now let’s apply this to the reverence of the “green colour”

1. The basis is to love EVERYTHING associated with Nabi (Sallalaho Alaihe Wassallam)
2. It is not classed as Sunnah (or even recommended)
3. There is no reward associated with it
   

Thus cannot be classed as Bid’ah

Now let’s apply this to “Muftisays”

1. The basis is to learn Islam (I hope that is why people come here, otherwise they should leave!)
2. It is not classed as Sunnah (or even recommended)
3. There is no reward associated with it
   

History:

The reason for mentioning the Green colour specifically is for two reasons:

It is historic in Islam i.e. in the olden days people used to compose poetry in their desire to visit the Rawdah-Mubarak of Nabi (Sallalaho Alaihe Wassallam) . Travel was difficult in those days so green dome became a sign of pouring or love and devotion to Nabi (Sallalaho Alaihe Wassallam). Poetry is proven from the Qur’aan and Sunnah so it is symbolism!

The Wahabi (regime) of Saudia wanted to change it (in the 1960s) for no reason but to disconnect the Ummah and break the link with history. They have done it again and again with Islamic historical artefacts.

The reason I am strongly agreeing with this is because the Saudi Jaackasses have no problems with parading Saudi flags and celebrating National day (dating back to 1926) but they are trying to brainwash the Ummah into changing the colour of the green dome! The Saudi Jaackasses and their paid (Salafi/Madkhali/Wahabi) lackeys should reform all other expressions of symbolism in Saudi Arabia i.e. Cinema,  Mariah Carey concerts before turning their filthy attention to the dome of Nabi (Sallalaho Alaihe Wassallam).

Green is a historical attribution and expression of love. It is not Sunnah, there is no sin involved etc.

You are right that it could have easily been “Silver” (in fact it was Silver at one time) and many people don’t wear white shoes because it is attributable.

There is no hard and fast Shariah rule and no sin for doing the opposite.

Expression of love has no boundaries.
