What is a Mutawatir Hadith and why this is distinct?
A Mutawatir (مُتَواتِر meaning "successive") Hadith is a report of such a large number of narrators (at different times) that their agreement upon an untruth is inconceivable thus being accepted as unquestionable in its veracity. A hadith is said to be mutawatir if it was reported by a significant, though unspecified, number of narrators at each level in the chain of narration, thus reaching the succeeding generation through multiple chains of narration leading back to its source.
This provides confirmation that the hadith is authentically attributed to its source at a level above reasonable doubt. This is due to its being beyond historical possibility that narrators could have conspired to forge a narration. In contrast, an ahaad hadith is a narration the chain of which has not reached a number sufficient to qualify as mutawatir.
There are only two types of texts in Islamic sharīʿah which are immutable (Qaati’) a) verses of Qura’n and b) Mutawatir Hadith. If someone denies a Mutawatir hadith he does Kufr.
Why this collection?
We have searched through the internet over and over again and unfortunately could not find a single collection of Mutawatir hadith in English. So we have compiled this from a website of Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Endowments, Da‘wah and Guidance, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This compilation is originally selected and compiled by the Ulaama council of this ministry and NOT by us. Our contribution is just copying from the website and accumulates into an unbroken book. We hope this will come handy in many research and necessary studies inshaAllah. May Allah (SWT) accept all of our efforts, Ameen.

5. The Context
It is an issue of Tawhid. It is an issue of Truth and
Falsehood.
51: 56. I have only created Jinns and men, that They
may serve Me.
16:36. And Verily, we have sent among Every Ummah
(community, nation) a Messenger (proclaiming):
"Worship Allâh (Alone), and avoid (or keep away from)
Tâghût (all false deities, etc. i.e. do not Worship Tâghût
besides Allâh)."
6. The Context
BEGINS with Ibrahim PBUH
CONTINUING with Muhammad PBUH and
CONCLUDING with ‘Eesa PBUH.
As Allah is our Creator, He is also the One who
Chooses
28:68. Thy Lord does create and choose As He pleases: no
choice have They (in the matter): glory to Allah. and far
is He above the partners They ascribe (to Him)!
7. The Context
What does Allah choose? Angels, Humans, Prophets,
Messengers, the Five Messengers of resolute
determination, the two Khaleels of Allah, Times,
Places
Importance to Palestine Issue: Among the lands, Allah
chose Makka (spec. Al-Ka’ba), Medina (and in Medina
specifically: between the two valleys in which the
Prophet’s Masjid was erected), Ash Sham (Specifically
Syria, and from Syria He chose Bayt ul Maqdis, and
from there another hill and where He decreed that
Masjid al Aqsa be built).
8. The Importance
To separate Masjid ul Aqsa from Mecca and Medina is
as if to separate one part of Islam from another.
We are believers in ALL the revelations of Allah and in
all the prophets of Allah be He glorified in the highest.
Likewise, we cannot separate parts of the places which
Allah has honored for some of His prophets. If we do
this it is as if we were to believe in some of the message
and disbelieve in the rest of His message.
Bayt ul Maqdis is connected with the Makkah and
Medina.
9. The Evidences
1) 17:1. Glory to ((Allah)) who did take
His servant for a journey by night
from the sacred Mosque (Al-Masjid-
al-Harâm (at Makkah)) to the
farthest Mosque (Masjid ul Aqsa),
whose precincts we did bless…
10. The Evidences
2) The prophet PBUH said (reported from Maymuna) -
She said oh Messenger of Allah, give us a fatwa
regarding Bayt ul Maqdis. The prophet PBUH said, it
is the land where the people will be gathered
(mahshar) and the land of the Resurrection
(Manshar). Come to it, and pray there, for a prayer
there is like a 1000 prayers anywhere else (outside
Masjid al Haram and Masjid un Nabawi). Maymuna
said, what should I do if I cannot reach Masjid ul
Aqsa? He said offer some oil by which you might light
the masjid. (they would burn torches in order to light
the masjid). The prophet PBUH said, whoever does
such it is like the person has gone there and prayed.
11. The Evidences
3) The prophet PBUH was asked by Abu Dharr, what was
the first mosque to be built? The prophet replied,
Masjid al Haram. Then which masjid? Masjid Al aqsa
and there were 40 years between the two.
12. The Evidences
4) The prophet PBUH said: The Buraq (the
beast) was brought to me and I rode it to Bayt
ul maqdis.
He tied the Buraq to a ring which the
prophets would tie their animals to. He
entered the masjid and prayed there then was
raised to the heavens. He was leading all the
prophets.
13. The evidences
5) A companion (Dhul Asaabi’a) asked: What
should we do if we are to live after you? (They
knew that living after the prophet was a
disaster). The prophet PBUH said, it is upon
you to go to Masjid ul Aqsa for perhaps you
might have children who will then go there
morning and evening worshipping Allah
there.
14. The Evidences
6) The prophet PBUH asked Abu Dharr: What should
you do if you are forced to leave Medina? Abu Dharr
said, I will go to Makkah and I will be like the
pigeons there (I will always stick around Masjid Al
Haram). The prophet PBUH asked him what will
you do if you are forced to leave Masjid Al Haram?
He said, I will go to Ash Sham and to Bayt ul Maqdis.
The prophet PBUH then asked, what will you do if
you are forced to leave it? He said I will raise my
sword on my shoulder (I will go and wage jihad
wherever it takes me).
15. The Evidences
7) The prophet PBUH said, there will be a
hijrah following hijrah. This Ummah will
continue to make hijrah until they leave
the Non Muslim lands. There will be hijrah
until the people finally make hijrah to the
place where Ibrahim PBUH made hijrah to
i.e. Jerusalem.
16. The Evidences
8) The prophet PBUH said, oh son of Hawala, if you see
the khilafa set up in Jerusalem, then know the days of
earthquakes and tribulations and great matters have
come. The hour will be closer to you that day than my
hand is to your head.
17. The Evidences
9) The prophet, while in Makkah would face Bayt ul
maqdis in prayer. For 16 months after he made hijrah
to Medina, he would face Bayt ul Maqdis until he
would be commanded to pray towards Makkah.
The position of Palestine and these lands in the Qur’an
and Sunnah cannot be denied. The matter is not like
other Zionists perceive- you Muslims have Makkah,
why not give Jerusalem to the Christians. It is like
saying, we believe in Muhammad PBUH only and
not ‘Eesa PBUH and Musa PBUH!
18. The History of Bayt ul Maqdis
Starts with our Father, Ibrahim PBUH.
Born in Iraq on the Euphrates River. He called the people to
Tawhid and he broke the idols there.
He was commanded by Allah to migrate from those lands to
Ash Sham.
From there he made another journey i.e. to Egypt.
Because of the oppressiveness of Pharaoh he went back to
Jerusalem.
Finally he went to Hijaz where he rebuilt the ka’bah with his
son Isma’eel.
He also had another son, Ishaaq. He worshipped Allah in
Masjid ul Aqsa in Jerusalem with his son, Yaqoub. This was
the other house of worship that Ibrahim PBUH built.
19. Yusuf PBUH
He had 12 sons, one of which is Yusuf PBUH
Yusuf goes through many years of hardship, remains
steadfast, eventually becomes the governor of Egypt
He calls his brothers and father to Egypt.
The children of Israel (of Ya’qoub) remain there for
a period of time until their fortunes reverse due to
their leaving the revelation of Allah
They end up in bondage to the Egyptians. Then
Allah subhanau wa ta'ala sent Musa PBUH to them.
20. Musa PBUH
After Musa PBUH and the children of Israel leave Egypt,
Musa tells his people: "O My people! enter the Holy land
(Palestine) which Allâh has assigned to you, and turn
not back (in flight) for Then You will be returned as
losers.” (5:21)
They tell Musa, we will not enter into that land, “so Go
You and Your Lord and fight You two, we are sitting
Right here.” (5:24)
These people were not purified from their sins.
Ibn al Qayyim (rah) says: they crossed the sea, their feet
had not yet dried and they began to worship the calf.
They were still affected by the land of Egypt, the
environment of paganism.
21. Musa PBUH
Allah subhanau wa ta'ala punished them by
forbidding unto them Bayt ul Maqdis for 40 years
They were forced to wander upon the earth. The
wisdom behind this: Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala
wanted that generation which was raised in bondage
to pass away.
So that generation passed away after 40 years.
Another generation arose and with the prophet
yashu’ah (Joshua) PBUH they entered Jerusalem.
22. Side note on Musa PBUH
The prophet Musa’s heart PBUH was clinging to
Jerusalem (just like it was for Makkah).
Before he died the angel of death came to him. He did
not want to die. So he plucked the eye of the angel.
The angel went back to its lord. Allah subhanau wa
ta'ala said, death is written for everyone. You must die.
…But since you do not want to die, put your hand upon
this oxen and as many hairs as you pull out then you will
live that many years extra. Musa asked, and then what
will happen? Then death will come. Musa PBUH says,
then at least let me come a stone’s throw away from the
Holy Land. (It was forbidden for them to enter it). He
wanted to die close to the holy land.
23. Yashu’ah PBUH
After the 40 years, and after Musa dies and is buried,
Allah subhanau wa ta'ala sends Yushu’ah PBUH the
Children of Israel.
He is commanded to enter into Jerusalem and take it
before the day is over.
Because of the sins of the Children of Israel, they
are not able to defeat the Philistines in that day.
The sun was about to set. He looks at the sun and
says, ‘you are commanded by Allah and I am
commanded by Allah’. So, Allah commanded the
sun not to set until they were able to take Jerusalem.
24. Yashu’ah PBUH
However, the Jews were commanded when they
were to enter into Jerusalem to say, “HiTTa”, so
Allah would forgive them their sins
The disobeyed and instead said “HinTa” which just
means wheat or barley; mocking Allah’s words
In the end, Allah be He glorified in the highest
entered the Children of Israel into Jerusalem.
The Children of Israel were always led by a prophet
in worshipping Allah.
25. Dawuud PBUH
And has the news of the litigants reached you? When they climbed over
the wall into (his) Mihrab (a praying place or a private room). When
they entered in upon David, he was terrified of them, they said: Fear
not! (We are) two litigants, one of whom has wronged the other;
therefore judge between us with truth, and treat us not with injustice,
and guide us to the Right Way.“
"Verily, this is my brother (in religion) has ninety nine ewes, while I
have only one ewe, and he says: 'Hand it over to me,' and he
overpowered me in speech.“
David said immediately without listening to the opponent: "He has
wronged you in demanding your ewe in addition to his ewes. And,
verily, many partners oppress one another, except those who believe
and do righteous good deeds, and they are few.“
26. Dawuud PBUH
And David guessed that We have tried him and he
sought Forgiveness of his Lord, and he fell down
prostrate and turned to Allah in repentance. So We
forgave him that, and verily, for him is a near access to
Us, and as good place of final return Paradise.
O David! Verily! We have placed you as a successor on
earth, so judge you between men in truth and justice.
And follow not your desire for it will mislead you from
the Path of Allah. Verily! Those who wander astray
from the Path (38: 21-26)
27. Sulayman PBUH
He finally completed the re-building of Masjid ul Aqsa
He then asked Allah for three things (reported by Abdullah
ibn Amr ibn al Aas).
1) A judgment that is in agreement with what Allah wants. Allah
gave him this.
2) A kingdom that no one would have after him (His du’a: Oh
Allah forgive my sins and give me a kingdom which will not
be given to anyone after me. You are the one who grants
and bestows all things). Sulayman’s kingdom and power
was such that even the jinns were under his command. He
used to spend the morning in Jerusalem. When it would
become hot, he would spend the afternoon in Kabul,
Afghanistan. This is because the winds were under his
command.
28. Sulayman PBUH
3) That any man come forth from their house only
wanting to pray in this house (Masjid ul Aqsa) and
that he comes forth from his sins like the day his
mother gave birth to them.
The prophet PBUH said, we ask Allah subhanau wa
ta'ala to give this to us (since he has not given it to
Sulayman).
* Example of Abdullah ibn ‘Omer .
29. After Sulayman PBUH
The children of Israel fall into great sin and go into
idol worship.
Allah subhanau wa ta'ala punishes them with the
Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar who comes and
destroys Masjid ul Aqsa (What the Jews and
Christians call the Jewish Temple) in 587 BCE.
He takes the Children of Israel into captivity.
Allah subhanau wa ta'ala sends them many
prophets among them Daniaal PBUH (Daniel).
30. The Other Prophets
Allah subhanahu wa ta’ala has mercy on the
Children of Israel. He allows them to return to Bayt
ul Maqdis and sends them many prophets which
Muhammad PBUH tells us about.
31. The Other Prophets
In the Qur’an, Allah subhanau wa ta'ala tells us in
the story of Maryam PBUH’s mother who says when
she is pregnant: I have given you, oh Allah (‘azza
wa jall) as a vow what is in my belly. This means,
what I am going to give birth to will just be in Masjid
al Aqsa worshipping Allah subhanau wa ta'ala. She
gave birth to Maryam bint ‘Imran.
Every time Zakariya PBUH would enter into masjid
ul Aqsa he would find Maryam 'alayha salaam
worshipping Allah subhanau wa ta'ala there.
32. Yahya and Eesa ‘alayhuma salaam
Allah commanded Yahya with five commands.
He was to act upon them and to command the
children of Israel with them.
Yayha bin zakaria was slow to command the children
of Israel to act upon it.
Allah subhanau wa ta'ala commanded ‘Eesa PBUH
to tell Yahya (‘Eesa’s cousin), ‘either you (Yahya)
command the children of Israel with it or I will
command them with it’.
33. Yahya and Eesa ‘alayhuma salaam
Yahya said, ‘I am afraid if you are to tell the
Children of Israel before me then Allah ‘azza
wa jall will either cause the earth to swallow
me or will punish me.
So, Yahya gathers the people in Bayt ul Maqdis.
He tells them about the commands- fasting,
charity, tawheed, prayer, dhikr. The prophet
PBUH added, listening and obeying and jihad
and hijrah to these five commands.
34. Muhammad PBUH
There are many verses connecting the prophet PBUH to
the other prophets.
Since Tawhid has to be completed and because this
message confirms the previous revelations, the prophet
SAWS prepared the Muslims to take Bayt ul Maqdis
8AH- Battle of Mu’tah
9AH- Battle of Tabuk
Army of Osama bin Zayd (and the death of the Prophet)
35. Abu Bakr radiyallahu ‘anhu
The army of Osama radiyallahu ‘anhu was ready to
be sent.
The prophet PBUH dies.
Then Abu Bakr becomes khalifa. A new issue
occurs:
The Arabs apostate. So, there’s two issues: 1) The
prophet had commanded the army of Osama to go
forth but 2) the Arabs are apostatizing. The Sahaba
told Abu Bakr we need every single man to fight the
apostates, and then we’ll deal with Ash sham.
36. Abu Bakr radiyallah ‘anhu
Abu Bakr says, by Allah I will not send back an army
which the prophet PBUH has tied its banner to go
forth. Even if the dogs of Medina were to enter into
medina and bite upon the legs of the mothers of the
believers (including his daughter Aa’isha radi Allahu
'anha), I will not send this army back. So they go
forth. Abu Bakr said, it is more beloved to me that I
take over a small village in Ash Sham than a big city
in Iraq because it is the blessed land.
37. Omer radiyallahu ‘anhu
The conquest of Ash Sham continues under ‘Omer
The armies are sent forth led by the Amin
(trustworthy) of this ummah, Abu ‘Ubayda amr bin
al Jarrah.
There were three other armies as well led by Amr b.
al Aas, yazid b. abi sufyan, and Shrahbeel b. Hasanah
respectively. They conquer various places in Ash
Sham.
13 AH- Battle of Ajnadeen (take over of Palestine)
15 AH- Battle of Yarmuk
38. Battle of Yarmuk
The leader of the Byzantines was the brother of
Heracules.
Heracules (as mentioned in the ahadith in Sahih
Bukhari) recognizes that the prophet is Muhammad
PBUH.
He said when speaking to Abu Sufyan: “…I have
already known that a Prophet must arise but it has
never occurred to me that he will be an Arab from
among you. If I was sure I would be faithful to him, I
might hope to meet him, and if I were with him, I
would wash his feet.’
39. Battle of Yarmuk
Even though he acknowledges the prophet
hood of Muhammad SAWS, he doesn’t accept it
because he wants to keep his dominion.
Yet, he knows he would lose his dominion (as
was told by the interpreters of the dream). He
persists. Hercules still let his brother lead the
battle who was directing from Northern Syria.
40. Battle of Yarmuk
The Muslims take over this land but they don’t have
Jerusalem yet.
They surround it for four months in the middle of winter.
Finally the inhabitants of Jerusalem seek to make aman (to
make a treaty) with the Muslims.
They tell the commander of the Muslims, abu ‘Ubuydah amr
bin al Jarrah, ‘we want to make a treaty with your leader’.
So he takes a group of these Christians to Omer b. al Khattab
in Medina. When they get to Medina, they are surprised.
They see Omer sleeping under a tree. The khalifa is sleeping
under a tree!
So, Omer goes ahead to Jerusalem.
41. Battle of Yarmuk
Ibn Al Jawzi reports that Omer went on his red camel. He went
with his servant and both would exchange riding the camel. One
would walk with it, one would ride on it.
All the sahaba go with Omer because this is the great event. Bayt ul
Maqdis is going to return to the Muslims. When he approaches the
city, it is his servant who is riding the camel and Omer pulling it.
Omer is coming from the Mount of Olives (where Jesus gave his
sermon on the mount). When Omer approaches it, the Muslims
start saying, “Allahu Akbar!”
The mountain is not called the Mount of Olives anymore, its called
jabal al mukbir, where the takbir was made.
42. The Muslims take over Jerusalem
Omer enters and makes the treaty with the ruler.
When the Christian Patrioch sees him he says, ‘your
nation will remain for all of time. A nation of injustice
and oppression will last for only an hour but a nation of
justice will remain until the establishment of the hour.’
Omer asked the leader to show him Masjid ul Aqsa.
They didn’t want to show it to him. Eventually they
brought him to the hill where Masjid ul Aqsa is.
Omer says, Allahu Akbar, this is the Masjid of Dawud
PBUH which the prophet PBUH described he made
israa’ (night journey) to. The prophet PBUH actually
described how the Masjid looked like.
43. Masjid ul Aqsa
Omer noticed, at the mihrab of Dawud PBUH the
Christians, in order to show their animosity towards the
Jews, used to throw their excrement in this area of the
masjid of al Aqsa—even though ‘Eesa PBUH used to
preach from there.
What does Omer do?
He takes off his cloak and begins to clean the masjid
area.
The Sahaba upon seeing this, begin to do the same until
they clean off the mihrab of Dawud PBUH from the
excrement.
Then, Omer stands and prays two rak’ah and beings to
recite Surah Sa’ad.
44. Masjid ul Aqsa
Then he asks Kaa’bil Ahbar the Jewish Rabbi (who becomes
Muslim), ‘point me to the rock from where the prophet PBUH
made mi’raaj from. So Ka’b points to it. Omer says, where
should we build the Masjid?
The Masjid was destroyed by the Romans in 70 CE.
There had been no prayer there for approx. 600 years.
Ka’b says, ‘build the Masjid behind the rock so that when we
make salat from Jerusalem we will face the qiblah of the
previous prophets and we will face our (Muslim) qiblah.
Omer says, ‘you resemble Jews oh Ka’b. No! We will put
that behind us because that qiblah has been abrogated.’
So, he builds Masjid ul Aqsa before the rock (not behind it).
The Sahaba used to visit it.
45. Masjid ul Aqsa
Abu Darda’aa and Salman al Farsi had a bond
between them (assigned at Medina—Muhajiroon
were paired with ansaar). Abu Dardaa in Ash Shaam
writes a letter to Salman al Farsi and says, come to
the holy lands! Salman writes back saying ‘it is not a
land that makes a man holy, but it is the righteous
actions that make a man holy.’
The point is the Sahaba had a very close attachment
to Jerusalem and Masjid ul Aqsa.
46. Banu Umayyah
The sahaba lived in Jerusalem but they spread throughout the
lands teaching the people.
Because of Abdullah b. Saba (the Jew) there were certain
fitan that would occur.
When Hasan was khalifa, in order to make peace with the
Muslims, he steps down from the khalifa and hands it over to
Mu’awiya.
Where does Mu’aawiya take bay’ah from? From Masjid ul
Aqsa.
Banu ummayyah has its force in Damascus and the khulafaa
come to Masjid ul Aqsa and do certain things there.
Among them is Abd ul Malik who wants to see in his time,
Jerusalem beautified. The Muslims have a lot of money from
jihad.
47. Abd al Malik
He rebuilds Masjid ul Aqsa and builds the Dome of
the Rock (Qubbat as Sukhra).
He puts in charge of it two of the scholars of his
time Rijaa bin haywa and Abdullah b. salaam.
When they finish building it up, they write a letter to
the khalifa in Damascus, Abd al Malik and say, we
have built it in such a way that nobody can say
anything is left to build.
We have 100,000 dinars left and you as amir al
mu’mineen, spend it wherever you think it is best for
the Muslims.
48. Abd al Malik
Abd al Malik sends a letter to them saying, I am
giving you this 100,000 dinars because of the good
work you have done. The scholars write back saying,
it is more befitting for us that we take our womens’
jewelry and use it to decorate the Masjid.
i.e. we should not take any of this money but we
should take our own personal wealth and add it to
this Masjid. This shows how much the Muslims
cared for Bayt ul Maqdis.
51. Omer ibn abd al Aziz
Omer b. abd al Aziz became khalifa and he returned
government back to the way of the Prophethood.
He reformed the ummah in two years.
He returned government to the way of the nubuwwa.
He told all his governors ‘go and pray two raka’aat in
Masjid ul Aqsa’ and that they should give an oath that
they would obey Omer ibn Abd al Aziz and be just to the
Muslims.
The Muslims left the sunnah and they declined in iman.
The Shi’ah took over and the crusades happen. They
take Masjid ul Aqsa away from the Muslims in the 5th
century.
52. Nur ad Din az Zengi
Allah subhanau wa ta'ala raised for this Ummah the likes
of Nur ad Din Zengi.
He was in Mosul and he takes it upon himself to return
back the lands of the Muslims from the Crusaders.
Nur ad Din az Zengi conquers over 70 of the Crusaders’
forts and castles and many cities.
But his wish is to see Jerusalem conquered. He builds a
mimbar and the Muslims are surprised: you are building
this mimbar for bayt ul maqdis and we haven’t even
come close to it yet?
He said, yes I have built this mimbar so that it may one
day stand upon it in Masjid ul Aqsa when it is returned to
the Muslims.
53. Salah ud Din al Ayyubi
Nur ad Din was killed by a Shi’ah. He is poisoned,
therefore, Nur ad Din ash Shaheed.
But, his student (also raised in his household), Salah ud
Din al Ayyubi continues the return of the holy lands from
the crusaders.
When the Muslims enter Bayt ul Maqdis and take it
from the Crusaders, he sends the command to Damascus,
‘brings us the mimbar of Nur ad Din!’
They bring it back and the khateeb stands upon it and he
gives the Khutbah on Jumu’ah.
It is the first Jumu’ah back in Masjid ul Aqsa after 70
years after it was in the possession of the Christians. So
much so that they even put a cross on the top of the dome
of the rock.
54. Salah ud Din al Ayyubi
This mimbar remained on the dome of the rock and
the khateebs gave khutbahs until 1969.
In 1969, the Australian Christian fanatic, Michael
Dennis Rohan went there and firebombed Masjid ul
Aqsa and burnt down the mimbar instituted by
Salah ud Din al Ayyubi.
56. After Salah ud Din
In 1878 Napoleon takes Egypt and one of his aims is
to take Jerusalem in order to send all the Jews from
Europe to Jerusalem.
Napoleon fails. In 1882, the British take Egypt.
In 1919, with the fall of the Ottomans, General
Allenby enters into Jerusalem and enters upon the
Mount of Olives and says ‘now, the crusades have
ended!’ The British control not only Jerusalem but
also Egypt and Iraq.
57. After Salah ud Din
Later they hand it back to the Jews and leave it. The
state of Israel comes in 1948.
In 1920, French General Henri Gouraud when he
entered Damascus Striding to Salah ud Din’s tomb
next to the Grand Mosque, he kicked it and
exclaimed, "Awake Saladin, we have returned. My
presence here consecrates the victory of the Cross
over the Crescent."
58. The Qualities of the Jews- Quotes from Syed Qutb
The Muslim Ummah continues
to suffer from the same Jewish
Machinations and double dealings which
discomfited the Early Muslims but the
Muslim Ummah today does not, one
must say with great regret, use those
Qur’anic directives and this Divine
Guidance regarding these problems….
59. The Muslim Ummah does not take advantage of the
Islamic sources which its Salaf used. Only in this way
were the Salaf able to overcome Jewish conspiracy
and double dealing in Medina and thus did the
religion of Islam arise and thus was the Muslim
Ummah born. The Jews continue–through their
wickedness and double-dealing–to lead this (Muslim)
Ummah away from its religion and to alienate it from
its Qur’an. They do this in order to prevent the
Ummah from utilizing its traditional Qur’anic
weapons and its perfect [Qur’anic ?] readiness for this
struggle. The Jews are secure so long as this Muslim
Ummah is estranged from the sources of its real
power and the roots of its pure knowledge.
