HAZRAT ALI AND BAHUBALI

                                                  HAZRAT ALI AND BAHUBALI


After watching Bahubali-2 blockbuster movie it became very clear to me that it is inspired from the real live of the greatest legend of Islam  Hazrat Ali the cousin and son in law of Prophet Mohammed (saw).Hazrat Ali (as) is famous for his exemplary muscle power and single combat skills and war tactics. In his youth itself he terminated the greatest horn points of Arabia and became the main factor in the establishment  Islam .Apart  from being a legendary warrior,  Hazrat Ali (as) was also a great philosopher and man of letters. He was a wonderful orator , a wise man and above all a great and obedient servant of God who was always found busy chanting the verses of the Holy Quran. Owing to all these contrasting qualities the Prophet of Islam declared him as his caliph and vicegerent. The people also loved him and were ready to lay down their lives for him. But like our Bahubali he (as) was striped of his position and made an adviser to the ruling authority and this did not deter Hazrat Ali (as) from giving sincere advises (for the protection of Islam) to the ruling authority. During the rule of all the fist three caliph of Islam he (as) led a life of a common man and benefited the ruler and the ruled with his wisdom and philanthropic activities. In the movie it is shown that Bahubali despite of being a rightful owner to the throne suffers immense atrocities to the extent that his wife is dragged into the court despite of her pregnancy. Hazrat Ali ‘s wife – the daughter of Prophet Mohammed (saw)- was also dragged out of her house  while she was pregnant and her house was set on fire and she was taken to the court along with her husband Ali(as) who was in ropes around his neck. Despite of all these atrocities Ali (as) did not lose his patience and was later  selected by the huge public demand as the fourth caliph of Islam. But to the irony of fate, Ali (as) was blamed by his opponents  for the murder of Usman-the third caliph and was trapped into a quagmire of bloodshed and war politics. Bahublai is also shown to be trapped in a murder conspiracy by his opponent  Bhallaladeva and is finally murdered for the same reason. Even Hazrat Ali was killed  for the false blame that he planned the murder of Usman by Mawiya and his men. Mawiya was the Bhallaladeva in Hazrat Ali’s life who tortured him whole of his life and finally got him killed while he was busy in his prayers.Well, the movie Bahubali-2 contains all the element which were there in the life of the real hero –Hazrat Ali (as).

ON THINKING We humans, the species Homo sapiens, are gifted with a great faculty called ‘thinking’. It is the only tool, which has made us superior to all the other species on earth, and is responsible for our complete dominance over them. But recent research on Apes, Lemurs and Monkey has shown that even they have the ability to think, but to a very lesser degree (The Dragons of Eden:Carl Sagan). It was found that Chimps and Apes use sticks in order to get the termites out of their holes (The Dragons of Eden). All the Primates (Lemurs,Apes,Monkey and Humans) have this special gift to some degree. But the humans differ from the other Primates in a having a highly developed faculty of “thinking”. Fig.1.All the monkey like mammals including humans are called primates. All the Primates use “thinking” to fulfill their materialistic requirement. But human beings are the only Primates to have the faculty of Philosophical and Mathematical thinking. This kind of thinking is Peculiar to human a

AHLUL-BAITH IN SAHIH-MUSLIM

                                    Ahlul-Baith in Sahih Muslim The word Ahlul-Baith literally means ‘People of the House’, but in Islamic world it means the people  of the house of  Prophet Muhammad (saw).But if you refer to Quran it means those special people in Prophet Muhammad’s family who were made pure by God and were protected from every kind of blemish and sin whether big or small. The  following verses of the Holy Quran is an evidence to the fact, “ And stay you (wives of Prophet Muhammad) in your houses and display not your beauty  like the display of the ignorance of old times, and establish you prayer and give away the poor-rate, and obey God and His Apostle; Verily, verily God intends to keep away from uncleanness O’ you Ahlul-Baith, and purify you a thorough purification.” Quran :33:33 In this verses God,in the first part, is addressing the wives of Prophet Muhammad and warning them not to go out of their houses and not to behave as any ordinary women and i
