Question:
As Salaam Alaikum
I am a newer revert and I’ve come across your response from 2014 regarding Sheikh Hosein and I’m curious as those pointed out prophecies are coming true, would you have a new answer?
Respectfully,
Your sister in Islam
Answer:
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
We are unaware as to which prophecies you are referring to that are coming true.
However, we reiterate that our beautiful religion is based on the Quraan which is understood through authentic interpretations, and the Ahadith (sayings) of The Prophet ﷺ, and not any individual ‘prophecies’ or personal interpretations. Such ‘prophecies’ hold no significance in Deen, and it does not behove an Muslim to go around spreading anxiety and promoting ideas regarding future events based on undetermined and conjectural theories that stem from misinterpreting The Quran and Ahādīth.
In current times of trials and difficulties, when the Ummah faces turmoil, and our Imān faces danger, we follow the ultimate teachings of Rasulullah Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam by turning to Allah Ta’ala in Salah, Dua, seeking His help one preparation for the Hereafter.
Therefore, we maintain the same views on Imran Hosein as in the pervious fatwa[1].
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
