118. Kaafir ko salaam kehna

Kaafir ko salaam kehna

[Sawaal]

Un dinon jab hum Mashriq-o-Maghrib ke mukhtalif mumaalik mein jaate hain, Jin ke bashindon ke ghaalib akseeriyat mukhtalif mazahib se ta’lluq rakhne waale ghair muslimon ki hai, Woh hamein jahan bhi milte hain to salaam kehte hain to is silsila mein hum par Kia waajib hai?

[Jawab]

Rasoolullah (ﷺ) se yeh saabit hai ke aap ne farmaaya:

لا تَبْدَوا الْيَهُودَ وَلَا النَّصَارَى بِالسَّلَامِ وَإِذَا لَقِيتُمُوهُمْ فِي الطَّرِيقِ فَاضْطَرُّوْهُمْ إِلَى أضيقه

“Yahood-o-Nasaara ko pehle salaam na karo aur jab raaste mein un se milo to tang raaste ki taraf unhein majboor kar do.”

(Sahih Muslim, Kitaab Al-Salaam, Baab al-Nahi ‘an Ibtida Ahl Al-kitaab baal Salaam . . . , H: 2167)

Isi tarah Aap (ﷺ) ne yeh bhi farmaaya hai ke:

إِذَا سَلَّمَ عَلَيْكُمْ أَهْلُ الْكِتَابِ فَقُولُوا وَعَلَيْكُمْ

“Jab Ahl-e-kitaab tumhein salaam kahen to jawaab mein sirf yeh kaho ‘Wa ‘alaikum.”

(Sahih Bukhari, Kitaab Al-Astazan, Baab Kaif Al-Rad ‘Ali Ahl Al-Zamat baal Salaam, H: 6258, -o-Sahih Muslim, Raqam: 2163)

Ahl-e-kitaab se muraad agarcha Yahood-o-Nasaara hain lekin baqya kufaar ka hukm bhi is masla mein yehi hai kyunke un mein aur deegar kaafiron mein farq ki koi daleel nahi hai. Kaafir ko mutalqan pehle salaam na kiya jaae aur agar woh salaam kahen to waajib hai ke jawaab mein sirf “Wa ‘alaikum” kaha jaae jaisa ke Nabi (ﷺ) ne farmaaya hai aur is ke ba’d yeh kehne mein koi harj nahi ke Tumhara Kia haal hai? Bachon ka Kia haal hai? jaisa ke ba’az Ahl-e-ilm maslan Shaikh-ul-Islam Ibn-e-Taymiyyah رحمة الله ne is ki ijaazat di hai, khusoosan jab ke Islami maslihat ka yeh taqaaza bhi ho maslan us se Islam ki rughbat dena’ Islam se us se maanoos karna taakeh woh da’wat-e-Islam qubool kar le Irshaad-e-Baari Ta’aala hai:

ادْعُ إِلَى سَبِيلِ رَبِّكَ بِالْحِكْمَةِ وَالْمَوْعِظَةِ الْحَسَنَةِ وَجَدِ لَهُم بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ

(Al-Nahl 125 16)

“(Ae Paighambar!) Logon ko daanish aur neik naseehat se apne Parwardigaar ke raaste ki taraf bulaao aur bohat hi achhe tareeqe se un se munaazira karo.”

Nez farmaaya:

وَلَا تُجَادِلُوا أَهْلَ الْكِتَابِ إِلَّا بِالَّتِي هِيَ أَحْسَنُ

(Al-Ankaboot 29 46)

“Aur Ahl-e-kitaab se jhagda (Behas-mubaahisa) na karo magar aise tareeqe se jo nihaayat acha ho, Haan jo un mein se be insaafi karen . . . . . .”
