Introduction:

Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) foretold about the emergence of Khawarij from East[1] – from the direction of Arabian province of Najd.[2] He also foretold there will be two groups of Khawarij[3] to emerge from East with shaven heads.[4] About one he specificly said they will appear near the end of time - in the time of Dajjal[5] and join his forces against Muslims. The first major Khariji sect had it’s ranked filled with Arabs who had marched from Najd to Iraq. Most of them belonged to the sub-tribes of two main tribes banu Rabia and Mudhar. The second major sect of Khawarij to arise from Najd what we know today as Wahhabism. The man power of this Khariji sect also came from two tribes of Rabia and Mudhar. The Prophet’s (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) mentioning of direction and name of place of emergence of Khariji sect is a thorn in the eyes of Wahhabi’s. As such they resorted to distort those Ahadith which identify Najd/East as place from where group of Satan will emerge. They argue Khawarij emerged from Iraq therefore Najd is Iraq or in Iraq and they argue the intended east of the Ahadith toward the direction of Iraq. The basis of their these beliefs is logic and not scriptural evidence. Please refer to the following article to get a detail refutation of their logical dediction: ‘Hadith Distortion Series – Dajjal Is To Emerge From East And He Will Come From Iraq Therefore Intended East Is Iraq.’ Referr to footnote two to get the gist of their logic and then referr to following part of article: ‘Bring Forward Your Proof If  You Are Truthful.’ In the mentioned section their logic is refuted with logical deductions which cannot be acceptable to any Muslim. In this article the logic behind their belief will be refuted uniquely, in sha allah subhanahu wa ta’ala.

Wahhabi Logic – Iraq Is East Of Madinah:

A Wahhabi argued Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) is reported to have said: “It was narrated that Jabir said: “The Messenger of Allah addressed us and said: ‘The Talbiyah of the people of Al-Madinah begins at Dhul-Hulaifah. The Talbiyah of the people of Sham begins at Juhfah. The Talbiyah of the people of Yemen begins at Yalamlam. The Talbiyah of the people of Najd begins at Qarn. The Talbiyah of the people of the east begins at Dhat ‘Irq.’ Then he turned to face the (eastern) horizon and said: ‘O Allah, make their hearts steadfast.’” [Ref: Ibn Majah, B25, H2915] He quoted Hadith which stated Dhat Al Irq is place of wearing for those coming from Iraq: Abu Zubair heard Jabir b. 'Abdullah (Allah be pleased with them) as saying as he was asked about (the place for entering upon the) state of Ihram: I heard (and I think he carried it directly to the Apostle of Allah) him saying: For the people of Medina Dhu'l-Hulaifa is the place for entering upon the state of Ihram, and for he people coming through the other way (i. e. Syria) it is Juhfa; for the people of Iraq it is Dhat al-'Irq; for the people uf Najd it is Qarn (al-Manazil) and for the people of Yemen it is Yalamlam.” [Ref: Muslim, B7, H2666] Then he concluded – you see the place of wearing Ihram for people of east is Dhat Al Irq and Iraqi’s wear Ihram from Dhat Al Irq therefore Iraq is in East.

Refuting Heretical Wahhabi Logic With Logic:

Z says: Planes entering British airspace from east direct them to London Gatwick airport. Y: Those planes coming from Northern Ireland also land them at Gatwick airport. Wahhabi: Planes from east are landing at Gatwick airport and planes from Northern Ireland are landing from Gatwick – place of plane landing is same - logic dictates Northern Ireland is in EAST. You see, logic is very bad tool to interpret two statements, especially if they are being used to determin geographical locations or directions. Anyone who has looked at a map will not arrive at conclusion that Northern Ireland is in east. In comparable fashion, Dhat Al Irq being the place of assuming Ihram for people Iraqi and for people of east has got nothing do with Iraq being in east of prophetic city of Madinah. Bottom line is geographical maps should be used to understand where Iraq not logic. Here is a depiction of Iraq in relationship to Arabian Peninsula. Note on this map straight lines northern, southern, eastern, and western borders have been drawn to enhance the actual location of Iraq in relationship to Arabia and also note the green and the yellow lines meet on the centre of Arabia depending on where it was drawn from.

Just from looking at the map above it would be obvious to everyone that Iraq is North of Saudi Arabia and not even remotely to its east. The lands of ancient Khurasan comprimises of parts of Iran, Afghanistan, Uzbekstan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan and it has been stated as a land in the east: “It was narrated that Abu Bakr Siddiq said: "The Messenger of Allah told us: 'Dajjal will emerge in a land in the East called Khorasan, and will be followed by people with faces like hammered shields.'" [Ref: Ibn Majah, B36, same Hadith: H4072]“Abu Bakr As-Siddiq said: "The Messenger of Allah narrated to us, saying: 'The Dajjal shall emerge from a land in the East called Khurasan. He is followed by a people whom appear as if their f aces are shields coated with leather.'" [Ref: Tirmadhi, B7, H2237] In addition to this countries such as Pakistan, India, China, and Bangladesh are in the direction of East, Iraq is up North. Dhat Al Irq was nominated as place of assuming Ihram for easterners because Hujjaj from east of mentioned countries would use the land route of Iraq to perform Hajj. Those who would land on eastern sea shore of Arabian peninsula would have to use Qarn Al Manazil as place of wearing Ihram because they approach Makkah from direction of Najd.

Conclusion:

Iraq is north from Arabia and cannot be legitimately be taken as land in the east. East is toward the province of Najd about which Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) said group of Satan will emerge from it.

- [1] “Narrated Ibn 'Umar: I heard Allah's Apostle while he was facing the East, saying, "Verily! Afflictions are there, from the side where head of Satan will come out." [Ref: Bukhari, B88, H213]

- [2] “Narrated Ibn 'Umar: (The Prophet) said, "O Allah! Bless our Sham and our Yemen." People said, "Our Najd as well." The Prophet again said, "O Allah! Bless our Sham and Yemen." They said again, "Our Najd as well." On that the Prophet said, "There will appear earthquakes and afflictions, and from there will come out the side of the head of Satan." [Ref: Bukhari, B17, H147]

- [3] Tribes of Rabia and Mudhar are situated in region surrounding Riyadh and in the Arabian province of Najd, the Hadith states: “Verily Iman is towards this side, and harshness and callousness of the hearts is found amongst the rude owners of the camels who drive them behind their tails (to the direction) where emerge the two groups of Satan, they are the tribes of Rabi'a and Mudar.[Ref: Muslim, B1, H83] This establishes emergance of two Khariji groups from Najd which is East of Madinah.

- [4] “Narrated `Uqba bin `Umar and Abu Mas`ud: Allah's Messenger pointed with his hand towards Yemen and said, "True Belief is Yemenite yonder but sternness and mercilessness are the qualities of those who are busy with their camels and pay no attention to the Religion where the two sides of the group of Satan will appear. Such qualities belong to the tribe of Rabi`a and Mudar." [Ref: Bukhari, Bo54, H521] Banu Rabia and Banu Mudhar were situated in the direction of east from Madinah: Sahl b. Hunaif reported Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) as saying: There would arise from the east a people with shaven heads. [Ref: Muslim, B5, H2338] This establishes there will be two groups of Satan emerging from East from direction of Najd with shaven heads.

- [5] It is stated in Hadith:“Abu Sa'id al-Khudri said that the Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) made a mention of a sect that would be among his Ummah which would emerge out of the dissension of the people. Their distinctive mark would be shaven heads. They would be the worst creatures or the worst of the creatures. The group who would be nearer to the truth out of the two would kill them.” [Ref: Muslim, B5, H2324] The dissention/disagreement mentioned in the Hadith was between Hadhrat Ali (radiallah ta’ala anhu) and Hadhrat Amir Muawiyah (radiallah ta’ala anhu). Khawarij emerged when both of them agreed to peace terms but the Khawarij from Hadhrat Ali’s (radiallah ta’ala anhu) side rebelled against his this decision and delcared him Mushrik and Kafir. They distanced from the army of Hadhrat Ali (radiallah ta’ala anhu) and camped seperatly. They were identifiable from Hadhrat Ali’s (radiallah ta’ala anhu) army due to their excessively shaven heads. The second group emerged in the 17th century from Najd almost identical to the first one in sense of barbarity, Takfir, rebellion, slaughter of Muslims, as well as having man power from sub-tribes of Banu Rabia/Mudhar, and placed excessive emphasis on extreme shaving of head until the Ulama used the Hadith of shaven head sect to indentify Wahhabi’s as Khariji’s. Then Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab put a stop to this practice. The following Hadith referrs to this second manifestion of Kharijism from Najd: A people will come at the end of time; as if he is one of them (i.e. Muslims), reciting the Qur'an without it passing beyond their throats. They will go through Islam just as the arrow goes through the target. Their distinction will be shaving. They will not cease to appear until the last of them comes with Al-Masih Ad-Dajjal. So when you meet them, then kill them, they are the worst of created beings." [Ref: Nasai, Vol5, B37, H4108]
