Introduction:

Khawarij employing bogus scholarship attempt to argue Ahadith of Najd – which indicate group of Satan is to emerge from it - were in fact regarding Iraq because Iraq is East of Madinah. Their attempt to use logic/rationalism to interpret Ahadith without the considering contradicting geographical data are gross distortions. It is best example of heretical Qiyas (i.e. Analogy). Employing correct information and deducing incorrect conclusion – like Iblees did, created from fire, created from clay, qiyas = I am better then him. Mixing falsehood with some truth. Poison presented as healthy food. Hence objective would be to expose the fraud perpetuated by the young and foolish Khawarij. So the seekers of truth can correctly employ the information to know that Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) warned Muslims regarding emergence of group of Satan from Najd, warned people about emergence of Wahhabism/Salafism from Najd. Told the Ummah that their methodology would be to quote the best people in the Ummah Muslimah as proof of their ideas.[1] Another Hadith tells that they will employ best of speech[2] to argue their case against Muslims.[3] Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) said this and Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) said that but they will be without guidance and out of Islam. Coming back, one the dust of heresy/disbelief will be removed it will become clear and those who are concerned for their hereafter will be able to use the information in Ahadith to guide themselves to straight path.

0.0 - The Rationale Behind Iraq Being East And Najd Being Iraq:

A Hadith records Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) said regarding Najd: “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 group of Satan." [Ref: Bukhari, B17, H147] They say Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) pointed toward Iraq when he refused to supplicate Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala): “Abdullah Ibn-Umar related that once, he saw the Prophet showing Iraq with his hand, and saying: "The fitna is here, the fitna is here, the fitna is here, three times, it is from here that will appear the devil's group.” [Ref: Musnd Ahmad V10, Hadith.6302, or 6129, P391] “Narrated Yusair bin 'Amr: I asked Sahl bin Hunaif, "Did you hear the Prophet saying anything about Al-Khawarij?" He said, "I heard him saying while pointing his hand towards Iraq.” There will appear in it (i.e, Iraq) some people who will recite the Quran but it will not go beyond their throats, and they will go out from (leave) Islam as an arrow darts through the game's body.' " [Ref: Bukhari, B84, H68] To seal the deal they present the following evidence in which Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) was pointing toward the direction of East: “Narrated Ibn 'Umar: I heard Allah's Apostle while he was facing the East, saying, "Verily! Afflictions are there, from the side where group of Satan will come out." [Ref: Bukhari, B88, H213] On this they conclude, Iraq is in the East of Madinah, and by Najd Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) intended meant Iraq.

1.0 - Appearance Of Dajjal And Issue Of Najd:

Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) said regarding Dajjal: “Thereupon he said: I harbor fear in regard to you in so many other things besides the Dajjal. If he comes forth while I am among you, I shall contend with him on your behalf, but if he comes forth while I am not amongst you, a man must contend on his own behalf and Allah would take care of every Muslim on my behalf (and safeguard him against his evil). He (Dajjal) would be a young man with twisted, contracted hair, and a blind eye. I compare him to `Abd-ul-`Uzza b. Qatan. He who amongst you would survive to see him should recite over him the opening verses of Sura Kahf (xviii). He would appear on the way between Syria and Iraq and would spread mischief right and left. O servant of Allah! adhere (to the path of Truth). We said: Allah's Messenger, how long would he stay on the earth? He said: For forty days, one day like a year and one day like a month and …” [Ref: Muslim, B41, H7015] Another Hadith provides additional detail: Allah has not sent any Prophet but he warned his nation about Dajjal. I am the last of the Prophets, and you are the last of the nations. He will undoubtedly appear among you. If he appears while I am among you, I will contend with him on behalf of every Muslim, and if he appears while I am not among you, then each man must fend for himself and Allah will take care of every Muslim on my behalf. He will emerge from Al-Khallah, between Sham and Iraq, and will wreak havoc right and left. O slaves of Allah, remain steadfast. I will describe him to you in a manner in which none of the Prophets has described him before me. He will start by saying "I am a Prophet," and there is no Prophet after me. Then a second time he will say: "I am your Lord." But you will not see your Lord until you die.” [Ref: Ibn Majah, B36, H4077] According to these Ahadith, Dajjal would appear between Syria and Iraq [of that time]. The second Hadith provides Al Khallah as the place from where Dajjal would appear. It also states: “He (i.e. Dajjal) undoubtedly appear among you.” Indicating he would appear from Arabia as well. Another Hadith states, that Dajjal will appear from East, in land of Khurasan: 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, H4072] Following link leads to map depicting ancient Khurasan on modern geographical data, here. In another Hadith it is stated: “We said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Inform me about the Prophet, has he been sent?' We said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Inform me how the people came to him.' We said: 'Quickly.' He leaped up to try and escape.' We said: 'What are you?' He said: 'I am the Dajjal.'" (The Prophet(s.a.w) said) "He will enter all of the lands except At-Taibah, and At-Taibah is Al-Madinah." [Ref: Tirmadhi, B7, H2253] In other words, Dajjal will go to every country, or maybe every city of every country, but the city of Madinah – in other words he would appear in every country/city of earth. Please bare with me, the preceding was not related to Najd but it will be put into perspective and will establish inconsistent and defective, and deceptive methodology of opponents of Islam.

1.1 - Refuting The Logic And Rationale On Which Najd Became Iraq:

From the Ahadith it is established, Dajjal will appear from East, will appear between Syria and Iraq, he will appear from Khurasan, and he will enter every city except city of Madinah. Using all this information, would it be correct to argue, land between Iraq and Syria is in East and called Khurasan? Or land of Khurasan is in East, and Iraq and Syria are in Khurasan? In the first case, Khurasan which is in East is moved to North of Madinah. In the second case, Khurasan which is in East, but Syria and Iraq have been made in direction of East and made part of Khurasan. Considering the saying of Prophet, Dajjal will enter every land and Dajjal is to appear in Khurasan, can we assume all countries/cities are in East of Madinah and are called Khurasan? England, East of Madinah, its also called Khurasan. France in East and part of Khurasan. What kind of methodology is this? And what kind of scholarship is this? Is this the scholarship of Salaf Saliheen and methodology inherited from them? Its not scholarship its blendership, you put everything in one blender of stupidity, and get everything out which suites your purpose. O enemy of Islam – do you reason like this when you wish to demonstrate from where the Dajjal will appear? Do you interpret one place by the name of another? Have you ever argued Khurasan is between Syria and Iraq? Or Syria and Iraq are region, or places in Khurasan? Or argued Khurasan is another name of Al-Khallah? No! Then why display of such depravity with regards to appearance of Khawarij from Najd and Iraq?

1.2 - Restoring Sanity Amongst The Insane Distorters Of Islam:

Appearance of Dajjal is mentioned from many places, in East, from Khurasan, from North of Madinah – between Iraq and Syria. And Muslims do not combine all this data and distort the location of Khurasan, or direction of East, or location of Syria and Iraq. Instead we believe he will visit all lands, and Hadith stating about appearance of Dajjal in these lands only means he will visit these lands – as well as all lands of earth. The actual residence of Dajjal, the actual place of origin of Dajjal is mentioned in Hadith of Tamim Dari and definitely the lands are not of Iraq, Syria, Khurasan. These lands are where he would make his appearance but these are not lands of his origin. Neither do we interpret a name of place by another. And this is correct methodology. Yet on issue of Najd, instead of maintaining and affirming all regions our opponents interpret Najd to mean Iraq on the grounds that detail – i.e. group of Satan is said to appear from Iraq, and Najd. If matching of details means two different places can be one and the same then appearance of Dajjal between Syria and Iraq, Khurasan, from East, can/should all be combined, to make a new intepretation – Khurasan is Al Khalla, and it is between Syria and Iraq. Or we can wait for fruit-cake[4] scholarship to produce another logical/rational master pieace – in which all the mentioned details are crammed without any due respect to accuracy. Such bogus and shameless scholarship was and is foundation of all Khawarij, and it is also true for followers, defenders and promoters of Khariji teaching of Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab.[5] And we must leave such incredulous disgraceful scholarship lacking morally upright character to Shaykh of Najd and his band of foolish dessert rabble good for nothing except enemity to religion of Islam and Muslims whose only major contribution is destruction of Ummah Muslimah whole-sale. And we as Muslims follow the upright methodology and apply it consistently every time.

2.0 - Rebellion Of Khawarij In Syria - Al-Siffin:

According to Ahadith it is also clear that Khawarij will appear when there will be tribulation amongst the Ummah of RasoolAllah (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) – such as war between companions. The following Hadith is evidence of it:
“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. The Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) gave an example (to give their description) or he said: … 1Abu Sai'd then said: People of Iraq. it is you who have killed them.” [Ref: Muslim, B5, M2324] The dissension mentioned was battle of Al-Siffin between the armies of rightly guided Caliph Ali (radiallah ta’ala anhu) and leader of pious Muawiyah (radiallah ta’ala anhu).

2.1 - Emergence Of Khawarij – Najd, Syria, Iraq:

Vast majority of Khawarij and their leader Dhil Quwaisirah at-Tamimi belonged to Bani Tamim. He resided toward East of Madinah in region of Najd. From there he along his followers marched to Syria to take part in battle between Ali (radiallah ta’ala anhu) and Muawiyah (radiallah ta’ala anhu). After incident of arbitration – which they disapproved - they seperated from Army of Ali (radiallaht a’ala anhu) and later marched to Harura [Haruri is another name for Khariji] in Iraq. There like minded people joined them and then they moved camp to Nehrawan. At Nehrawan Ali (radiallah ta’ala anhu) faced them in battle which resulted in utter and complete defeat of Khawarij. In short, Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) foretold that Khawarij will emerge from Banu Tamim, from East of Madinah, from Najd, will march to Syria, become Khariji, march to Iraq, and fight battle, and foretold their complete anahilation – when he stated every single group of Khawarij will be cut-off, meaning anahilated. Considering this, why should you argue Iraq is Najd, why not Syria? Have you any principle by which you stand? Shouldn’t Najd, Syria, Iraq be one and the same according to your own methodology because Khawarij left the party of Ali (radiallah ta’ala anhu) in Syria? Doesn’t your sense of shame cause you to feel embrassed and feel ashamed of your distortions?

3.0 - Hypothetically Speaking – Najd Is Iraq, Najd Is Syria, So What:

Suppose even if Iraq is Najd, Syria is also Najd, it still would not lighten the burden of Kharijism carried by Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab because the Najd which Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) pointed toward was in East of Madinah, here, the direction of sunrise, here, from the prophetic pulpit of Masjid Nabvi – toward the direction Ummul Momineen Aysha’s (radiallah ta’ala anha) house, here – which establishes Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) pointed toward Saudi capital Riyadh. And these details which indicates direction of Najd you cannot fit on Iraq or Syria. These detail only substantiate traditional and Islamic understanding of Najd; Najd is in Arabian Peninsula, central Arabia, region surrounding Riyadh. It is established that the first Kharijis were followers of Dhil Quwaisirah at-Tamim, from tribe of Banu Tamim. Following article provides links to maps published by Khawarij and neutral sources which indicate where Bani Tamim was located in Arabian Peninsula during the prophetic times. It also contains links to maps which indicate direction, location and region of Najd in Arabian Peninsula, here. Finally the following article refutes the rationale and logic on which the opponents of Islam have argued, Iraq is East, Najd is Iraq, here. Coming to back Shaykh Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab and Riyadh - Uyainah the birth place of Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab and Dirriyah the missionary centre of his Khariji movement are stones throw away from Riyadh. Alhasil, Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) precisely pointed the region of Najd from which group of Satan – Khawarij were to emerge.

Conclusion:

Najd, Iraq, Syria, Khurasan, are all different vast regions of Earth. Najd and Khurasan are East of Madinah. Syria is pretty precisely North, Iraq is more North from in context of Arabia then East and in context of Madinah North East. Baghdad/Kufa where Khawarij were in Iraq is toward North  then North East.All these places were and are known as separate places from Ahadith and geographical data. On basis of a trait, a detail of information, it is foolish to interpret, Iraq to mean Najd or Najd to mean Iraq, or Al-Khalla to mean Khurasan, or any other distorted possibility. We cannot interpret Ahadith like this, accurately; distort Ahadith like this and if one does so such one is guilty of distorting and is attempting to distort Islam. Ahadith establish Khawarij are to appear from Najd, Iraq and even Syria. Najd is place of origin of Khariji Fitnah and Banu Tamim is the mother tribe in which it festered until it infected battle of Al-Siffin and then Iraq. And Iraqis were the people who killed the Khawarij. Also pre-supposing, Iraq is also Najd even then it cannot be Najd toward which Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) pointed – he pointed toward direction of Riyadh which is established from Hadith in which Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) pointed toward the house of Aysha (radiallah ta’ala anha). This supposition disregards all available information which negates/refutes the Khariji position that Najd is Iraq or in Iraq. And despite this a single detail refutes it and establishes Islamic position that Najd is in central Arabia, region surrounding Saudi capital Riyadh.

Footnotes:

- [1] Hadith records: “Abdullah [bin Mas'ud] narrated that the Messenger of Allah said: "In the end of time there will come a people young in years, foolish in minds, reciting the Qur'an which will not go beyond their throats, uttering sayings from the best of creatures, going through the religion as an arrow goes through the target." [Ref: Tirmadhi, B7, H2188] Even though scholars of Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jammah also do this but it is not trade-mark. Yet their maybe hardly any practicing Salafi/Wahhabi who doesn’t do this. And this is their trade mark call: – understand religion as the Salaf as-Saliheen understood it. Who are the best of generations, the Sahabah, the Tabiyoon, and the Taba Tabi’een. And who puts the mosts emphasis on following these three best of generations? Be fair if you know, is it not the Wahhabiyyah? This excessive emphasis on Salaf Saliheen is proof that Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa aalihi was’sallam) had foretold the emergence of Wahhabism and described their trait – calling them young foolish people who have gone out of religion. Note this was not the trait of earliest Khawarij. They put emphasis on Quran more then the Sunnah. The Shaykh of Najd and his followers put great emphasis on Salaf Saliheen so much so that they are called Salafi i.e. one who follows predecessor.

- [2] “Narrated Abdullah: The best talk (speech) is Allah's Book, and the best way is the way of Muhammad, and the worst matters are the heresies (those new things which are introduced into the religion); and whatever you have been promised will surely come to pass, and you cannot escape (it).” [Ref: Bukhari, B92, H382]

- [3] “Narrated Ali: I relate the traditions of Allah's Messenger to you for I would rather fall from the sky than attribute something to him falsely. But when I tell you a thing which is between you and me, then no doubt, war is guile. I heard Allah's Messenger saying, "In the last days of this world there will appear some young foolish people, who will use (in their claim) the best speech of all people (i.e. the Qur'an), and they will abandon Islam as an arrow going through the game. Their belief will not go beyond their throats (i.e. they will have practically no belief), so wherever you meet them, kill them, for he who kills them shall get a reward on the Day of Resurrection." [Ref: Bukhari, B56, H808] Anyone interested on seeing the actual demonstration of this can buy any random book published by Wahhabiyyah. It will be crammed with Quranic and refferences from Ahadith and references of Salaf Saliheen. Yet the reality is what they quote has nothing to do with what the scholars of Islam wrote, nor the Quran or Ahadith teach. These books contain wgross distortions which go against emphatic teaching of Ahadith. For ilustration purposes, Kitab at-Tawheed of Shaykh of Najd, is replete with quotes from Quran and Ahadith. Yet all verses are about polytheists but he has applied them upon Muslims. And according to Abdullah Ibn Umar, it was trait of early Khawarij, the worst of creatures in existance and not of Muslims: “... and the Mulhidun (heretical) after the establishment of firm proof against them:"And the statement of Allah: 'Allah will not mislead a people after He has guided them, until He makes clear to them what to avoid.' [9:115] And Ibn Umar used to consider them (the Khawarij and the Mulhidun) the worst of Allah's creatures and said: "These people took some verses that had been revealed concerning the disbelievers and interpreted them as describing the believers.” [Ref: Bukhari, Volume 9, Page 49, Chapter 6: Killing The Khawarij] So even though their books are replete with refferences they contain no guidance and their authors are standing at gates of hell inviting people to hell and one who responds to them will be in fire with them.

- [4] Fruit-Cake scholarship, is my way of very politely saying bogus and fraudulent scholarship. Offensive way would be, whore-scholarship. With a whore, moral depravity and money justifies the action, in whore-scholarship of Wahhabism,  moral depravity and end justifies the means – i.e. methodology is justified by what the Khariji wants to achieve. To earn money whore sells body. On other hand a Khariji, Wahhabi, Salafi scholar to  protect the sectarian interest and to ensure smooth flow of Saudi petro-dollars, is willing to sell everything; sound methodology is first one to go, consistent honest objective application of methodology is the second victim of petro-dollars, and lastly sells his soul to Iblees, and earns hell-fire for distorting the religion, and for introducing innovations.

- [5] Note readers, it is not that they don’t know the correct way of interpretation. They do know how to correctly interpret the given data in Ahadith. They demonstrate their correct knowledge when they explain the Ahadith of Dajjal in which appearnce of him is mentioned from different plcaes. The problem is that their blackened hearts love the teaching they have been exposed to. Hence when  the truth of Islam is established and it becomes apparent to them; by accepting the truth of Islamic argument they would destroy their own religion of Kharijism, and religion of Islam would be triumphant against them, as it is destined to be triumphant. Then they resort behaving like a fish out of water – unpredictably flaps, looses all grace. In similar fashion, the brain fuse goes pop and the resulting spasm attack results in such arguments and such scholarship. I am waiting for some true follower of Salaf as-Saaliheen to come and say, sun will rise from West near the judgment day, hence West is East, and group of Satan is European Uninon. Hint! Hint! Qarn = European Union = European Group = East Is West = Eurpean Union/Group of Satan. What do you care about distorting the Ahadith. As long as, group of Satan is not from direction of Shaykh Muhammad Ibn Abdul Wahhab’s place, all interpretations are valid, right? Psst!!! Over here! Shhh! Not so loud, Alps in France establishes Najd is Europe because Najd means raise/elevated land, keep it between me and you. Hehe! Okay? Hehe! Okay!
