کتاب الشفاء، قاضی عیاض، Kitab al-Shifa, Qazi Iyad
اردو ترجمہ از مولانا عبدالحکیم خان اختر شاہجہانپوری
"Kitab al-Shifa" containing
the biography and imageries of Last Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be
upon him, is a famous book written by Qadi Iyad Maliki Andalusian. Qadi was not
an ordinary person, but he was characterized by various qualities and
perfections, various sciences. And he was a master of arts, Imam of time and sign
of age. He was one of the greatest imams, custodians and hadiths and among the
best jurists and writers. His dedication in the art of hadith was extraordinary
and unparalleled.
Qadi Iyad was also a famous writer along
with all these qualities and perfections. Gained fame and credibility and has
been popular among the scholars of all times. Al-Dhahabi (1227 - 1348) says
that his important writings are discussed all over the world, thanks to them,
the name of the author became famous in his homeland. No man has ever written
so many books.
One of the most important works of
Qazi Sahib is the famous book Kitab al-Shifa on the definition of the rights of
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), the excellence and importance of which we
are going to comment on.
“In the Kitab al-Shifa, the greatness
of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) and his exalted position and position have been
clarified in the light of the Holy Quran, Hadith of the Prophet and the sayings
of Imams. “It is that you have constantly insisted on me to mention the
value and dignity of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be
upon him), his attributes and praises, his reverence and respect, and to
describe the rulings of those who are lacking in these matters. It is a very difficult
and difficult task and there is also a fear of slippage in it, but since there
is an expectation of reward and Allah's grace and reward from it, and
abandoning it is the cause of concealment of knowledge, regarding which a
strict promise has been made, therefore I has written this book”
The innovation and rarity of Kitab
al-Shifa has been discussed among people of every class and religion and the
charm and heart-warming style of its writing has been acknowledged by Qazi Iyad's
contemporaries. Sahib Debaj writes that:
“The author's uniqueness, innovation
and excellence is a credit to Muslims.”
The author
of Kashf al-Dhanun says:
"This is a very valuable and
useful book, such a good book has not been written before.”
It is stated by author of Ruzat that our Companions, i.e. the
people of the Imamiyyah section, have also copied many passages from it. In
fact, it has numerous benefits, high researches and hadiths related to the
circumstances and events from the birth of the Messenger of Allah (peace be
upon him) to his death. The author has quoted narrations from Akbar Sheikh in
it-
Allama Shahabuddin Ahmed bin Yahya says in his book Masalik
al-Absar:
"One of the books of Qazi Ayyaz
is Kitab al-Shifa on the definition of Huqaq al-Mustafa and no other book has
passed down like it"
The importance of Kitab al-Shifa can
be projected from the fact that Imam Allama Muhiuddin bin Sharaf al-Nawawi
refers to it in places in his Sharh Muslim, Imam Badr al-Din Aini in Umdat al-Qari and
Hafiz al-Hadith Ibn Hajar Asqalani in Fateh al-Bari frequently seems to
emphasize their advantages and points in the hadiths. In the hadith
commentators, where “Qal al-Qazi” says, Qazi Ayaz is meant. No doubt,
researchers and muhaddithians used it and later biographers gave it the status
of a source. This book is the light of hearts and the splendor of faith, and
why not, when in it the images and virtues of the Holy Prophet (peace be upon
him) are described with authentic and authentic hadiths.
Allama Ahmad Shahabuddin Khafaji says about the virtue of
reading Kitab al-Shifa:
“The name of Kitab al-Shifa is in
accordance with its name because the Salaf-e-Saliheen say that reading it is
the best and most effective action for curing diseases and solving problems,
and with the blessing of the Prophet (PBUH), reading this book can prevent
drowning. There is relief from the diseases of burning and plague, if the
belief is correct, then the intention is achieved.”
Kitab al-Shifa has been blessed with
such a position and position that after gaining popularity in the court of the
Holy Prophet (PBUH), this book has become a special place in the eyes of
scholars and peacemakers of all times. They praised it not only in prose.
Rather, in the form of poems and poems, he described its excellence and
importance.
As Lisanuddin Khatib says in the form of Talmsani poem:
شفاء
عیاض للصدور شفاء
و لیس للفضل قد حواہ
خفاء
"Healing is the healing of
hearts and the virtue it contains is not hidden"-
ھدیۃ
بر لم یکن لجز یلھا
سوی الاجر و الذکر
الجمیل کفاء
"This is the gift of a good
person whose greatness is rewarded only with reward and remembrance"
و
فی لبنی اللہ حق و فائہ
و
اکرم اوصاف الکرام وفاء
"They paid their loyalty to you
(PBUH) and the best attribute of the righteous is loyalty"
و جاء بہ بحرا یفوق لفضلہ
علی البحر طعم طیب و صفاء
"They have brought such a sea
which is superior to the sea of water and pure and pleasant”
حق رسول اللہ بعد و فاتہ
رعاہ و اغفال الحقوق جفاء
"They have neglected your rights
after the departure of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be
upon him) and neglecting your rights is a disgrace."
Hazrat
Allama Abu Husayn Zaidi says:
"The book of healing
(undoubtedly) is the healing of hearts whose light is fully illuminated by the
sun".
The public popularity of Kitab al-Shifa and its importance
can also be estimated from the fact that a large group of scholars have written
commentaries on it, about 26 of them in total - some of the notable and famous
rates are:
·
“Naseem al-Riyaz fi Sharh Shifa al-Qazi Ayyaz”. ( نسیم
