A Theological Discussion on the Authority of the Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him)
Akhtiyarat e Mustafa Shirk Kiun? is an important Urdu book written by Allama Muhammad Sajid Al Qadri Attari. The book discusses the Islamic belief regarding the authority granted to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and clarifies misunderstandings related to the concept of shirk (associating partners with Allah). The author presents his arguments in the light of the Qur’an and classical Islamic scholarship, aiming to explain the theological foundations of this belief.
[Free PDF download ##fa-file-pdf-o##]According to the explanation provided in Akhtiyarat e Mustafa Shirk Kiun?, ultimate ownership and absolute authority belong solely to Allah Almighty. However, by His divine will and special favor, Allah granted His beloved Messenger (peace be upon him) a distinguished status and delegated authority in certain matters. The book emphasizes that any authority attributed to the Prophet is not independent but granted by Allah. Without divine permission, no creation possesses ownership or control over even the smallest matter.
The author supports his viewpoint with Qur’anic references. For example, Surah An-Nisa (4:65) highlights the importance of accepting the Prophet (peace be upon him) as a judge in disputes, while Surah Al-Ahzab (33:36) states that when Allah and His Messenger decide a matter, believers do not retain personal choice in it. These verses are explained to demonstrate that obedience to the Prophet is an essential part of faith and submission.
