00:00As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi ta'ala wa barakatuhu.
00:03A challenge was set forth to prove to the lovers of Rasulullah alayhi salatu wasalam
00:08that prove mawlad from Qur'an, Sunnah, Sahaba, Ta'baein and Utba'u Ta'baein.
00:15Alhamdulillah, al-Shiriyah al-Sunnah,
00:18Hazrat Al-Lama, Hafiz, Ihsan Qadri accepted that challenge
00:21and sent out a special message to Bukhari TV
00:25who set out a 20,000 USD cash challenge
00:30to prove the mawlad of Rasulullah alayhi salatu wasalam.
00:33We sent out the message, we accepted the challenge and the shara'at
00:36and we also heard back from them and their masjid
00:40saying that they are ready to accept Hazrat's challenge for the 20,000 USD.
00:45Up till now, this was three days ago,
00:48up till now we said come to the Mecca Islamic Center
00:51at our annual mawladun nabi sallallahu alayhi wasalam program
00:54and mefil, we will pay for their transportation costs,
00:57we will feed them, even if they wanted to stay the night,
01:00we will pay for the hotel.
01:02We set everything else to come and face our ulama,
01:05ulama-i haq, ulama-i ahli sunnah.
01:07And nothing has been said, so why are you quiet?
01:10Why are you making this an issue bigger than what it is
01:14to remove the love of the Messenger of Allah alayhi salatu wasalam?
01:17And inshallah, I'm going to pass it on
01:18to Hazrat Al-Lama Hafiz, Ihsan Qadri sahab
01:20to enlighten us a little bit about this mawzuh as well.
01:28Actually, what he mentioned was that the term mawlad,
01:32this was not known even to the sahaba of Nabi Kareem sallallahu alayhi wasalam,
01:36and if anyone proves mawlad,
01:38then he is challenging for USD 20,000.
01:41So this elaborates that this person,
01:44maybe he is regarded as a scholar,
01:46but he doesn't know the basic meaning of the term mawlad,
01:49which is talking about the blessed birth of Rasul Kareem sallallahu alayhi wasalam,
01:54his place of birth, his time of birth, etc.
01:57And if you ask him this question,
01:59where and when Nabi Kareem sallallahu alayhi wasalam was born,
02:02he will at least say Rabi'ul Awl,
02:04because that is confirmed,
02:05no one has disagreement with the month Rabi'ul Awl.
02:08And also he was born in Makkahul Mukarma,
02:10he will say, now we will ask this question,
02:11how did you get to know?
02:13So obviously he will refer to his scholars,
02:15and his scholars will refer to their scholars.
02:17Going forward, ultimately they will have to say
02:20that the scholars of tariq, the historians,
02:24they wrote it,
02:25and the muhaddisun, they wrote it,
02:26the sahaba narrated,
02:28and sahaba narrated because Nabi Kareem sallallahu alayhi wasalam
02:31mentioned about his blessed birth,
02:33as there are several ahadith,
02:34very especially Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal,
02:36rahmatullahi alayhi,
02:37has recorded a hadith which goes as,
02:39the day I was born, my mother,
02:41she witnessed the nur,
02:43and she was able to see the palaces of Syria.
02:45So talking about the blessed birth,
02:47the term mawlad is proven
02:49from the hadith of Rasul Kareem sallallahu alayhi wasalam,
02:52and in one of the siha sita,
02:54Babu ma ja'a miladin nabi sallallahu alayhi wasalam,
02:57there's a chapter on the miladin nabi sallallahu alayhi wasalam.
03:00So I wholeheartedly accept this challenge
03:03because I am pretty sure
03:04this person doesn't know the term mawlad,
03:07let him come with $20,000 cash.
03:09We are ready to prove it.
03:11And I am here for another two days.
03:13This was during Jumu'ah, right?
03:14Today is Sunday, so far no updates.
03:16I am here till Tuesday, most welcome.
03:19And if you are able to prove a single hadith,
03:23even a weak narration is fine,
03:26to say commemorating the blessed birth,
03:28that is the mawlad of Nabi Kareem sallallahu alayhi wasalam,
03:31is against Islam,
03:32even a narration with a weak narrator is fine.
03:36We accept the challenge.
