INVITING THE KUFFAAR TO THE MUSAAJID
AN ERRONEOUS, INVALID FATWA
The following is Darul Uloom Zakariyya’s fatwa on the question of inviting non-Muslims to the Musaahjid. Is this fatwa valid? Please comment.
“Question:
Please advise if it will be permissible to invite non-muslims to the Masjid to expose them to Islam and to give them Dawat to Islam?
Respected Brother/Sister in Islam the answer to your is as follows:
It is permissible to invite non-Muslims to the mosque for the purpose of introducing them to Islam and inviting them to Islam, with this purpose only. Because this is permitted as a necessity, as the Rasulullah welcomed the delegation of Najran, who were non-Muslims, into the mosque. Furthermore, the disbelievers used to have their disputes resolved in the Masjid. This is the correct understanding, and Allah knows best.”

Our Comment
The Mufti Sahib has not taken into account the factors and circumstances pertaining to the current vile practice of the zindeeq modernists such as the Samnet clique and other heretics of similar corrupt, shaitaani ideology which requires the commission of flagrant sin plastered with ‘deeni’ hues.
Every Muslim of sound Deeni understanding who has no westernized bias for the condonation of the shaitaani plots of the West to scuttle this Deen of Islam, can readily understand that inviting droves of najis kuffaar men and women into the Musaajid for merrymaking tours, can never be permissible.
Even if it be momentarily assumed that the kuffaar wallowing in janaabat and najaasat are invited for the purpose of Islam, then too by no stretch of Shar’i logic will it be permissible to pollute the sanctity of the Musaajid with ZINA. The immodestly dressed Napaak (Impure) Habaailush Shaitaan (Traps of Iblees), in addition to polluting the sanctity of the Musaajid, further corrupt the bestial lusts of the fussaaq male musallis in the Musaajid, especially the bestiality of the organizers of these haraam shaitaani stunts presented as ‘tableegh’.
The argument of the Najraan delegation proffered to justify the corrupt fatwa is absolutely putrid and baseless. There is no substantiation in the Najraan episode for the flaccid claim of permissibility. There is not a vestige of support in the Najraan anecdote for supporting the shaitaani merrymaking practice of inviting crowds of kuffaar men and women into the Musaajid for sight-seeing.
The Najraan episode has been recklessly torn out of its context. The ingredients of the Najraan episode, the factors and circumstances pertaining to it have all been ignored. This is the kind of ‘fatwa’ which modernist juhhaal issue. For claiming permissibility of women to attend the Musaajid for Salaat, they cite Ahaadith – valid Saheeh Ahadith – whilst their jahaalat blinds them to the factors and circumstances which constrained the Sahaabah to enact the BAN on women attending the Musaajid. Although there are valid Ahaadith pertaining to women coming to the Musjid for Salaat, the Shariah rules prohibition.
Just as it is stupid and baatil to present Hadith to justify the claim of modernist for bringing women to the Musjid, so too is it absolutely baatil to cite the Najraan episode to justify the evil, haraam practice of inviting kuffaar men and women into the Musjid. It is in violent conflict with the Shariah to pollute the Musaajid with kuffaar presence, and the issue is substantially aggravated by the villainous, immoral factors accompanying their presence:
- All kuffaar wallow in Janaabat and Najaasat (Hukmi and Haqeeqi).
- Intermingling of men and women which is a zina invitation
- Immodestly dressed women
- Fussaaq Muslim male musallis in the Musjid feasting their eyes on these females for bestial gratification.
The Musaajid are not places for tourists.
THE NAJRAAN DELEGATION
When the delegation reached Madinah Munawwarah, its members removed their travel dress and donned their gaudily adorned garments and golden rings. According to their proudful style, their long cloaks dragged on the ground as they walked. In this state of pomp and show they came to Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and greeted him. Our Nabi (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) did not respond to their greeting.
They endeavoured the whole day to engage Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) in conversation, but he rebuffed them. He did not speak with them. Then they set out in search of Hadhrat Uthmaan (Radhiyallahu anhu) and Hadhrat AbdurRahmaan Bin Auf (Radhiyallahu anhum). They were acquainted with these two senior Sahaabah. After they located the two, the Christians said:
“O Uthmaan! O AbdurRahmaan! Your Nabi had written a letter to us. We have come to respond to his letter. We came and greeted, but he refused to respond to our greeting. We endeavoured the entire day to speak to him, but he avoided us. What is your advice? Do you advise that we should return?”
Both these Sahaabah sought the advice of Hadhrat Ali (Radhiyallahu anhu) who said: “They should remove their gaudy garments and their golden rings, and don their travel dress, then go to Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam).”
This advice was heeded. The delegation acted accordingly. Then when they came into the presence of Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and greeted, he returned their greeting. Then Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said:
“I take an oath by That Being Who has sent me with the Truth! They (i.e. the delegation) had come to me the first time with the adornment of Iblees….” Then Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) engaged them in discussion. Before the delegation had arrived, Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) had issued the following ultimatum to them:
“Accept Islam, and you will be granted safety…….I am calling you away from the worship of slaves to the worship of Allah Ta’ala. I call you away from the friendship of slaves to the Friendship of Allah. If you refuse (to accept this demand), then payment of Jizyah will be incumbent on you. If you refuse (even payment of Jizyah), then take notice of war. Was-salaam”
Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) had also informed them:
“Three things impede you from accepting Islam: Worshipping the cross; devouring the flesh of swines, and believing that Isaa (Alayhis salaam) is the son of Allah.”
Regarding the delegation of Najraan, the Qur’aan Majeed states:
“The Truth is from your Rabb (O Muhammad!). Therefore, do not be among those who doubt. Whoever disputes with you in this matter (of the Haqq) after Knowledge (by Wahi) has come to you, then say: ‘Come! Let us call our sons and your sons, our wives and your wives, ourselves and yourselves, then we shall supplicate sincerely (and earnestly) invoking the La’nat (Curse) of Allah on the liars.” (Aal-e-Imraan, 59 and 60)
This was the challenge which Allah Ta’ala commanded Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) to issue to the Najraani Christians. The delegation had asked Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) why he was speaking ill of ‘their person’…Upon this Allah Ta’ala revealed the aforementioned Aayat of Mubaahalah. However, the Christians were scared, hence refused to take up the challenge.
Far, very far from any bootlicking and making merry with the christians, Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) imposed on them the annual Jizyah tax. Thereafter, Nabi-e-Kareem (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) told them that if they had engaged him in the Mubaahalah to invoke the La’nat of Allah AzzaWa Jal, the entire Christian population of Najraan would have been destroyed. All of them would have been transformed into apes and swines, and the entire region would have been consumed by a raging fire. Thereafter, not even birds would perch on the trees of Najraan.
This then is the story of the Najraani delegation which is cited to justify kuffaar presence in the Musaajid. By putridly and stupidly mentioning the Najraani delegation, the ignorant masses are cast into the satanic mis-understanding. It never was the practice or norm of Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) nor of the Sahaabah to invite the impure kuffaar and even their immodestly dressed women into the Musjid for purposes of Tableegh.
With the Najraan delegation, Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) acquitted himself with belligerency. He refused to greet them. He refused to speak to them the entire day when they arrived. They were constrained to disrobe and don their old, dirty travel garments. They were issued the Mubaahalah challenge with the consequences of being transformed into apes and pigs, and finally an annual tax was imposed on them under threat of Jihad.
Is there any resemblance between the anecdote of Najraan and the merrymaking haraam kuffaar crowd wallowing in janaabat and najaasat?
Every Muslim can now quite easily understand the farce and fallacy of the Najraani analogy to justify inviting the kuffaar to the Musjid.
It is not permissible for a Muslim without wudhu to be inside the Musjid. But the erroneous fatwa allows immodestly dressed kuffaar women wallowing in the filth of haidh to be inside the Musjid!
“…Heed (and understand), O You People of Intelligence.” (Qur’aan)
