Regarding the Esteemed Professor Bassam Jarrar
Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
Introduction: Clarifying the Purpose of the Segment
In this brief statement, I am not here to discuss the topic of prophecy again, for I have already stated my opinion, which I still believe. However, this segment, dear respected audience, is briefly to defend the honorable professor Bassam Jarrar and to record my admiration and appreciation for his ethics.
The honorable professor said in his response a statement that truly caught my attention. He began by saying, "We know that many will ask us to respond to him" - meaning to me - "but we say we tried it the first time and it came out in the second." The honorable professor means that he responded to me when I spoke about what is called numerical miracle in general, but I did not pay attention and published a second segment about the prophecy of the disappearance of the Jewish state in a specific year.
And here I say to my beloved brother and honorable professor, may Allah preserve him: I had not yet reviewed your first response, nor do I know if you commented on it in the post or where, otherwise I would have taken care of it, may Allah bless you.
Praise for Professor Bassam Jarrar and His Ethics
Professor Bassam's Stance on Methodological Disagreements
Then Professor Bassam said a word that is worthy of attention: "And with this, you have taught us a lesson in ethics and in prioritizing the interest of Islam." And I do not see such words coming except from a great heart.
Previously, brothers, when I clarified the truth about some atheistic calls, you see some who consider themselves on the Islamic side stir up methodological disagreements with me and defend the promoters of atheistic calls out of spite towards me because I differ methodologically. While Professor Bassam, may Allah preserve and honor him, says: "I will not respond to this man because he benefits the Muslims, so let him benefit even if he says something that seems to belittle me." And I consider this to be the sincerity and truthfulness of Professor Bassam, may Allah preserve him, and Allah will hold him accountable.
Clarification Regarding "Anomalies"
Also, the honorable professor Bassam asks with noble manners in his response: "What did I mean when I said that the owner of the 2022 research has anomalies?" I should have clarified and not said a general statement like this that might be misunderstood as I doubt the thought or belief of the honorable professor.
What I meant was the immersion in numerical issues, as well as his lecture on the theory of evolution and the attempt to reconcile the Quranic texts with human evolution on the assumption of its correctness, and the methodology used in that. With my complete understanding of the great difference between the methodology of Professor Bassam and the methodology of others whom we talk about the invalidity of their speech on what is known as the theory of evolution, such as Adnan Ibrahim and his likes, whom Professor Bassam has already spoken about, may Allah bless him.
Although I praised the honorable professor in the same context, precision is required. Therefore, and so as not to fall into injustice, I have removed the mentioned segment to delete the word "anomalies," and I will republish the segment in which I saved the methodology of numerical determination. And I know that the honorable professor Bassam has a broad chest for this difference. I do not agree with him on the subject of determining a specific year based on these calculations, but what matters to us is the idea, not criticizing his honorable person.
Professor Bassam's Methodology in Spreading Pride
But I say, dear respected audience: Professor Bassam, may Allah preserve him, is known for his emphasis on spreading good news and pride in the hearts of Muslims, and is known for his severity towards the enemies of the religion, the oppressors, and the hypocrites. And this is a noble trait to be severe with those who deserve severity, merciful to the believers, and kind in their dealings with them. May Allah increase him in His bounty, guide him, and bless him with what he loves and is pleased with.
And a man like Professor Bassam is the majority of the Book and the Sunnah, spreading the same pride, we agree with him on the general purpose without a doubt, unlike those who misguide the youth of the nation, make them doubt their religion, and spread psychological defeat and collapse for the enmity of the religion, whom we have criticized and will continue to clarify their affair by the permission of Allah. And I repeat all of this does not contradict the disagreement on the issue of these calculations and on 2022.
Conclusion: A Call for Cooperation and Supplication
And regarding the topic of this segment, brothers, simply, it is to defend the honorable professor and thank him for his good character and for this lesson he taught us, may Allah bless him, raise his status, and honor him.
Finally, the great brother Professor Bassam mentioned that he does not agree with me on some matters despite his praise for most of what the poor servant publishes, so I ask him to provide me with his advice in the manner he sees fit, for a man is little by himself but much with his brothers. I ask Allah the Almighty to guide us and guide us all to what He loves and is pleased with, and to gather us, brothers, on facing couches. And to say to him: I love you in Allah for what you do of good. And I ask Allah the Great, the Lord of the Great Throne, to compensate for our lack and your lack, to fill our gap and your gap, and to guide us all to what He loves and is pleased with.
Now, the comments of the honorable brothers are many, forgive me if... And I will take advantage of this opportunity as I mentioned that the honorable professor Bassam - may Allah honor and raise his status - commented and perhaps I did not see his comment, so I ask you, brothers, the brothers get angry with me because I did not respond to the comments, and by the will of Allah, I am excused. And Allah, people, I am under a lot of pressure and unfortunately, I am not always regular, so it becomes a mess. The comments are many, but in the end, I ask Allah the Almighty to accept from us all. And whoever says to me peace be upon you, and upon you peace and the mercy of Allah, and whoever loves me in Allah, I love you in what you loved me in. And may Allah bless you all. Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
