المظاهرات Demonstrations How did the Muslim scholars infer the prohibition of demonstrations from the Hadith: (Allah curses those who curse their parents)? يوجد اليوم عند الصحابة ماكان موجود تعجبوا It exists today, but at the time of the companions it didn’t. They were shocked! قالوا : أويلعن الرجل والديه ؟! They said “would a man curse his parents?!” من أكبر الكبائر أن يلعن الرجل والديه One of the biggest major sins is for a man to curse his parents. وفي حديث قال : لعن الله من لعن والديه In a Hadith he ﷺ said “Allah curses those who curse their parents.” الصحابة تعجبوا : أويلعن الرجل والديه The companions were shocked “would a man curse his parents?!” فسرها لهم النبي صلّى الله عليه وسلم كيف يكون لعن الوالدين The Prophet peace be upon him explained it to them (i.e., how cursing the parents would be). إذا كان هو السبب بجلب اللعن لوالديه (It’s when) he is the reason for bringing the curse to his parents. فقال : يسب أبا الرجل فيسب أباه So, he ﷺ said “he insults the man's father, so he (the man) insults his father. ويسب أمه فيسب أمه And he insults his mother, so he (the man) insults his mother.” فهكذا الذي يتسبب بشيء يعتبر فاعلاً له Accordingly, the person who causes something (to happen) is considered to be the person who did it. ولذلك جرت عادة الناس إلاّ من وفقه الله و حفظ لسانه So, it has become customary between people, except for those whom Allah made successful and preserved their tongues, إذا سب أحد والده أو والديه أو لعنهم يرد عليه بمثلها صح؟! To respond similarly to someone who curses their parents, right? إذا لا تلعن أحداً حتى لايردون عليك Therefore, don’t curse anyone so that they don’t respond (the same) to you. فإن فعلت ذلك مع علمك أن الناس سيردون عليك However, if you do so while knowing that people will respond to you, تكون أنت قد تسببت فأنت تكون لاعناً لوالديك You’ll be the one who cursed his parents because you caused it to happen. هذا الحديث استنبطه من العلماء من المعاصرين مسألة المظاهرات و الخروج على الحكام The issue of demonstrations and revolting against the rulers was derived by contemporary (Muslim) scholars from this Hadith. قال : الذي يخرج ويسبب دمار للبلاد و سفك دماء العباد They said “He who revolts and causes destruction to the country and bloodshed هذا هو المتسبب هو يتحمل هذا المسؤولية is the culprit, and he bears this responsibility.” لماذا ؟ لأن الرسول صلّى الله عليه وسلم قال : لعن Why? Because the Messenger, peace be upon him, said “Allah curses الله من لعن والديه كيف ؟ قال : يسب أبا الرجل those who curse their parents.” How? He ﷺ said “he insults the man's father, so فيسب أباه ويسب أمه فيسب أمه he (the man) insults his father. And he insults his mother, so he (the man) insults his mother.” طيب هذا الذي يثير المظاهرات ويخرج ويخلي هذا Ok, this person who stirs up demonstrations, revolts, and makes this الحاكم يأتي ويذبح الناس وإلّا الجيش قتل الناس ruler and army slaughter the people, هذا هو تسبب يتحمل is the cause, so he should bear it. بل أن بعض أصحاب النبي عليه الصلاة و السلام In fact, some of the companions of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, وهو من الصحابة أفتوا رجلاً قد شج رأسُهُ و أجنب despite being from the companions (i.e., they are the best of people after the prophets), they gave a fatwa (Islamic ruling) to a man who wounded his head and was on Janabah, أصبح على جنابة وقد شج رأسه أن يغتسل he woke up on Janabah (impurity, so he needs to bathe to be able to pray), to wash. استفتاهم قالوا : اغتسل He asked them and they said “bathe.” اغتسل الرجل و في شج برأسه فمات The man bathed with the wound in his head and died. فلما بلغ ذلك النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قال : When the Prophet peace be upon him was informed about that, he said قتلوه قتلهم الله “They killed him; may Allah kill them.” وقتلوه قتلهم الله هذه لها عدة معاني : هلكوا من “They killed him; may Allah kill them.” This (sentence) has several meanings: perishing معانيها لعنهم الله is one of its meanings. May Allah curse them; قتلهم الله يعني لعنهم الله May Allah kill them means May Allah curse them.
