Nara e Haideri ki Haqeekat

It is Ijma of Sahaba and the Ummah that Imam Ali is the most courageous and bravest amongst the followers of Mohammed Mustafa (Sallal Lahu Alaihi Wa Sallam). Just study the seerah and you will see Badr, Khandaq, Khayber, Hunain etc. For instance, in Badr, 72 kuffar were killed and 37 were killed by Imam Ali (Alaihi Asalam).

The origins of the Naara are from the battlefield and it is recited in praise of the one on whose hand Allah Taalah granted victory to the Muslims after others had failed. When Hazrat Ali (Alaihi Asalam) once defeated many foes by himself, and the Sahaba’s (Radi Allah Anum Ajma’een) said, Nara e Haideri – Ya Ali (Alaihi Asalam).

Sayidna Ali (Aliahi Asalaam) is known as Haider – Lion

Ya Ali (Aliahi Asalaam) is the reply for Naaray Haideri.

Naaray Haideri is the call for Sayidna Ali (Aliahi Asalaam) since he is Asadullah.

Sayidna Ali (Aliahi Asalaam) is also Mushkil Kusha, thus we say Ya Ali to call upon Sayidna Ali (Aliahi Asalaam) as a waseela (intermediately or intercessor).

Sayidna Ali (Aliahi Asalaam) is Imamul Auliya.

SAINT IBN ARABI ON IMAM MAHDI AND HIS HELPERS

بِسْمِ اللَّـهِ الرَّحْمَـٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon Prophet Muhammad his family and companions. Excerpt from Ibn Arabi’s Al Futuhat Al Makkyya (Meccan Revelation): Inspired Knowledge and Divine Governance: The Mahdi’s “Helpers” Al Futuhat Al Makkiyya: Chapter 366: Concerning Inner Knowledge of the Stage of the Helpers of the Mahdi (Who is to) Appear at the End of Times: …Know–may God support us!–that God has a viceregent (khalifa) who will come forth when the earth has become filled with injustice and oppression, and will then fill it with justice and equity. Even if there were only one day left for this world, God would lengthen it so that he (i.e., the Mahdi) could rule. …He will wipe out injustice and its people and uphold Religion (al-Din), and he will breathe the spirit back into Islam. He will reinvigorate Islam after its degradation and bring it back to life after its death He will levy the poll-tax and call (mankind) to God with the sword, so that ...

Deciphering Egyptian Hieroglyphs in Muslim Heritage

The article is originally a talk presented at the international conference 1001 Inventions: Discover the Muslim Heritage in our World held at the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester on the 8th of March 2006, on the occasion of the launch of the exhibition 1001 inventions. The conference proceedings are edited by Dr. Salim Ayduz and Dr. Saleema Kauser. It is interesting for me as an Egyptologist to notice how the Islamic environment created an atmosphere in which the intended scholar could freely seek knowledge wherever it came from, and in whatever ancient language/culture it may originate, thus giving the incentive to various scholars to dedicate their lives completely to the discovery and the reading of ancient scripts, such as Egyptian and Mesopotamian. Sadly we Egyptologists acknowledge no contribution from Arabic or Muslim authors, mainly because many Egyptologists worldwide are not aware of the relevance of Arabic sources to our discipline. Most Egyptologists have enough...
