I have a "quite a few" questions regarding Jinns.
1. Firstly I've have heard that there are more Jinns than humans, if that is true does that mean that there are more than 6 Billion Jinns?
2. Coz Jinns also have 2B Muslims too, does that mean that Man & Jinn are equal, will we both judged the same way or is 1 regarded higher than the other? coz a Jinn prays at a Mosque that I know & they wanted 2 knock it all down so they could rebuild it, but they had 2 get permission from the Jinn First & also he prays at a certain place, so no1 is allowed 2 pray there. Its the only Mosque that I know which a Jinn prays.
3. Do they have their own Mosque in which they pray or can they only pray at Human Mosques?
4. Have there been any Messengers that were Jinns sent just 2 tell the truth 2 Jinns?
5. Prophet Suliman (peace be upon him) could control the Jinns, what did he do 2 the Jinns, did he make them all Muslim?
6. A Witch, whos feet are backwards are they also a Jinn or a different thing altogether?
7. Can a Jinn posses u just like that, coz Jinns are suppose 2B in toilets, can those Jinns harm or posses u?
8. And Finally Will Jinns only been seen by Humans if they want themselves 2B seen. Is it true that sometimes a Photo Camera can take a picture of a Jinn & same with a camcorder when the person taking it cannot see it?
Jazakallah

plz help me.I'm feeling very distressed when I heard that "Allah" may not be a single entity.He can be "More than one God existing & working as One".the word "Tauhid" comes from the root "Wahhad" which means "to unite as one".Is that really so?Isn't believing ALLAH as a number of Gods/Powers acting as "One" a kind of "Shirk"?I also heard that "Qul hu Allahu Ahadun" in Sura Ikhlas means "Say, He Allah is one of" which leaves a chance of his being the combination of several Gods acting as a single One who is self-sufficient.Or is it that the "99 Gods" call them "Allah" a a whole?plz help me.I'm feeling very confused.

as-salamu 'alaikum shaikh,
could you please explain if Allah's actions are created or uncreated and could you tie this in with His speech. Does His speech consist of letters and sounds or are the letters and sounds of the revealed books part of His creation? If they are from His creation then who said, for example, Alif Laam Meem? Is it really the letters and sounds of Jibreel as an expression of Allah's eternal Kalam or did Allah literally say them?

I have read in a book that there are seven heavens. And Almighty Allah comes down on the 1st heaven (or the sky of the world) certain blessed nights. I don't understand what this means. Does this mean that ontop of the sky there is another 6 skies? I am very sorry but
I have recently accepted Islam and I don't understand.

Assalamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu,
Dear Respected Ulama, today, someone told me that they do not follow one imam. This is their reason:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
We do not make taqleed of any one of the four imams, nor do we pick and choose. We follow that which is from Quran and sunnah, the imams are not infallible. We love and respect every single one of the imams of ahlus-sunnah wal-jamaa'ah, but we do not make taqleed of them. there are narrations where Imam Shafi'i (rahimahullah) said, "do not make taqleed of me, nor of Awza'ee, nor of...." and he mentions other scholars, then he said "rathere, take from where they took". Where did they take from sister? From the Book of Allah and the sunnah of His Messenger (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam).
Please note that the present days madhabs that we see, can not be ascribed to the imams themself, there are many lies quoted on them. Most of them are filled with innovationsafter innovations, with the claim that these are good bid'ah! or with other claims.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now what I want to know is just a brief answer to that because did imam Abu Hanifah (RA) say anything like what imam shafi'ee (RA) said? This person's argument seems right, nbut i know it's wrong, but i am just doubting.
Please could you answer asap please.
Please could you also remember me in your duas
Wassalam

i came across a site which quotes moulana qasim nanatwi of saying 'Only to the general public, the finality of Prophethood (Khatamun Nabiyeen) means the last Prophet, this is not the correct meaning of the term, for the knowledgeable people. Even if a Prophet comes after the Era of Muhammad, it will make no difference to the end of prophethood that is associated with Muhammad. (Tahzeerun Naas by Maulana Qasim Nanotwi, page 3, 25)'. is this true

The great Sheikh Qasim Nanotwi (rahimmullah) is constantly accused by a certain of givivng rise to mirza qadyanis claim to prophethood. This claim is based upon the sheikh's comments in the book tahzeer un naas. Would you indly explain the allegations and also the response of ulama e deoband. Jazakallah

First of all....Allah ta'ala reward you for your efforts.
I was hoping if you answer back to this claim; i.e. if it is true or not:
. Once Hazrat Jaabir (radi Allahu anhu) asked the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) whom Allah Ta'ala created before anything else. The Holy Prophet Muhammad (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) stated: "O Jaabir! Verily, before the creation of anything else, Almighty Allah created the Noor of your Nabi from His Noor." (Muwahibul Laduniya; Zirkani Shareef)
By the way, i know Prophet (SAW) was not made out of noor and is not hazir or nazir. Just like to know if this question is ever posed to me via this type of evidence.
Jazakallah and may Allah grant you istiqamat.

respected mufti saheb
in the little knowledge that i have i have found out that we being deobandis follow the way of shah walliyullah dehlawi (ra) and our chain of ilm leads to him. the question i'd like to ask is that shah waliyulah (RA) was an ash'aree. I have have proof of this from a photocopy of a manuscript which is from a library in heydrabaad. this is genuine. he states in arabic, the translation "as far as mazhab is concerned i follow the hanafiyah and as far as aqeedah is concerned i follow ash'ariya. does this not mean that we should follow the ash'ariyah? i can send you this photocopy if you need to see it.

Assalamu Alaikum:
I have read in a few books that tazkiyatun nafs only through a Shaykh is fardh and in some places it says wajib. The Daleel they use is 'WA YUZAKKIHIM' from the Qur'aan.
Does this mean that all those who do [b:ee0ba505a1]not[/b:ee0ba505a1] go through the means of a Shaykh will be sinful for missing a Fardh or Wajib according to them?
Can Tazkiya not be achieved by living a simple life?
Those who also are very sinful, can tazkiya not be achieved through regret, repentance, salah and du'aa?
I do not refute seeking guidance from s shaykh or scholar which is why I am asking here too. I do not deny that there are plenty more benefits having a spiritual guide who is already close to Allah.
My concern is how easily scholars say it's is Fardh or it is Waajib. Please correct me if i'm wrong and may Allah forgive me if i'm wrong.

I came across the following on some Qadiani website.
Only to the general public, the finality of Prophethood (Khatamun Nabiyeen) means the last Prophet, this is not the correct meaning of the term, for the knowledgeable people. Even if a Prophet comes after the Era of Muhammad, it will make no difference to the end of prophethood that is associated with Muhammad. (Tahzeerun Naas by Maulana Qasim Nanotwi, page 3, 25).
also in moulana ashraf thanvi (ra) book nashut teeb he was quoted a hadith in which the prophet (saw) says 'the 1st thing which allah created was my noor from his noor and from it he created the whole world'
is this hadith sahih or has moulana ashraf thanvi (ra) just used it for fazail. the brealwi quote this hadith to support the fact the prohet (saw) is noor and claim so did moulana thanvi (ra)
