Proving Prophethood of Muhammad (ﷺ): The miracle of Divine Revelation in the Qur’an (part 1)
Prophecy in the Qur’an: Romans victory over the Persians
Allah revealed Surah Ar-Rum (Makki Sura, what was revealed before Prophet's migration to Medina in 622 AD) -
{Alif-Lãm-Mĩm (1) The Romans have been defeated (2) in a nearby land. Yet following their defeat, they will triumph (3) within three to nine years. The ˹whole˺ matter rests with Allah before and after ˹victory˺. And on that day the believers will rejoice (4) at the victory willed by Allah. He gives victory to whoever He wills. For He is the Almighty, Most Merciful. (5) ˹This is˺ the promise of Allah. ˹And˺ Allah never fails in His promise. But most people do not know. (6)}
The above verse speaks of the Romans being defeated in a time close to its revelation, and then it made a prophecy that the Romans will triumph within the next three to nine years, and that Allah’s (swt) promise never fails. The following is a timeline of the events:
Year 602 (20 BH): The start of the war between the Byzantines and the Persians
Year 610 (12 BH) Heraclius becomes the Byzantine Emperor
Year 613 (9 BH): Persians conquer Homs, Apamea and Damascus
Year 614 (8 BH): Persians conquer Palestine and take the Holy Cross from Church of the Holy Sepulchre to the Capital of Persia (The first time the capital falls under the hands of non-Christians)
Year 619 (3 BH): The fall of Alexandria on the hands of the Persians which led to a shortage of wheat in Constantinople, causing financial problems.
Year 622: (The year of Hijra/Migration): The Roman Empire was on the brink of annihilation and had only Athena, the Isles in the Mediterranean sea, and a coastal strip in North of Africa. The morale of the Roman Empire was rapidly declining and internal struggles appeared which led to predictions of their complete defeat in no time, as the circumstances proved that it was almost impossible for the Roman Empire to win, and it is during these times that the Quranic verse was revealed, prophesying a victory for the Romans over the Persians, which was an unexpected prophecy and it put the Prophet (sawa) in a difficult position as if it goes wrong it disproves his entire message.
Year 622 continued: (The year of Hijra): During this year Heraclius launched a counter-offensive against the Persians, he leaves Constantinople to face the Persians and wins against Shahrbaraz, which is the first victory against the Persians after a series of loses
Year 624 (2 AH): Heraclius conquers modern-day Azerbaijan and destroys the largest Zoroastrian temple
Year 627 (5 AH): Heraclius achieves a devastating victory in the battle of Nineveh against the Persian army
Year 628 (6 AH): The war ends through the revolt of the Persian king’s son against his father and agreeing to a peace treaty with the Byzantines
Edward Gibbon (1737 - 1794) comments on the Qur’anic prophecy in his book by saying the following: “At the time when this prediction is said to have been delivered, no prophecy could be more distant from its accomplishment, since the first twelve years of Heraclius announced the approaching dissolution of the empire.”

The Twelve Imams in the Old Testament
And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and will greatly increase his numbers. He will be the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation. (Genesis 17:18-20)

Not a lot of research work has been conducted on Hisham ibn al-Kalbi's (d. 204 Hijri) work titled Kitab al-Asnam (Book of Idols), in which he discusses the gods of the pre-Islamic Arabs. It is the earliest independent work written on the history of the idols, and was a reference book for many later historians.
Four important figures that Ibn al-Kalbi narrates the many ahadith from, are 1) Muhammad bin Sa'ib (d. 146) - the father of Hisham, 2) Sharqi bin Qattami (d. 155 approx.) from one of the tribes of Yemen and a resident of Kufa, 3) Abu Miskin Hurr bin Miskin (d. 150 approx) one of the freed-slaves of the Nakha'i tribe of Yemen, and 4) a man from the Quraysh whose name does not appear in the book.
Ibn al-Kalbi brings numerous lines of poetry when it helps him describe the status of a certain idol in the days of Jahiliyyah. In fact his usage of poetry is so much that if Ibn al-Kalbi does not come across a line of poetry in regards to any one of the idols, he explicitly mentions this in his work.
Essentially the book is divided into two sections. In the first section the author discusses the history of idol worshipping in the Arabian peninsula, and the etiquettes by which different idols were looked after and worshipped. This section indicates that Hisham believed that the original belief of these people was monotheistic, but that they eventually dwelled into worshipping idols.
In the second section of the book, Hisham discusses the reasons why nations would begin worshipping idols, and he begins this discussion with the death of Adam (s) and its aftermath. However, this general outlook on the history of idol worshipping is not very lengthy and Ibn al-Kalbi begins discussing this polytheistic act in Arabia once again and the role the Prophet (s) played to counter it.

Why do the Shi’a pray on a stone (Turbah-Dried clay)? Is prostrating on Turbah (clay) while praying Salat considered Bid'ah or a Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) according to Sunni sources? Let's explore the real sunnah of Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ)
“Whatever the Messenger gives you, take it; and whatever he forbids you, leave it.” – Qur’an 59:7
“Pray as you have seen me praying…”- Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 11, Hadith 604
Some narrations from Sunni books that Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) prostrated on clay in salat-
1) Sahih al-Bukhari 836 Narrated Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri: I saw Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) prostrating in mud and water and saw the mark of mud on his forehead.
2) Sahih Al bukhari 2016: I saw Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) prostrating in mud and water and I saw the traces of mud on his forehead."
3) Sahih Al bukhari 2018: I saw with my own eyes the Prophet at the completion of the morning prayer leaving with his face covered with mud and water.
4) Sahih Al bukhari 438: The earth has been made for me (and for my followers) a place for praying and a thing to perform Tayammum. Therefore my followers can pray wherever the time of a prayer is due
5) Jami atTirmidhi 381: Umm Salamah narrated: "The Prophet (S) saw a boy of ours - called Aflah - blowing when he prostrated. So he (Prophet) said: 'O Aflah! Put your face in the dirt.'
Hadith grade: Hasan (Sound)
6) Sunan an-Nasa'i 1081: It was narrated that Jabir bin 'Abdullah said: "We used to pray Zuhr with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and I would take a handful of pebbles in my hand to cool them down, then I would pass them from one hand to the other, and when I prostrated I would put them down to lay my forehead on them."

🌷Don't Be a Spectator of Your Religion!
Too many people come asking questions about practices and beliefs they've heard on the pulpits by different people who claim to have religious knowledge and authority. For example, many people ask about Istighatha or Tatbir, looking for justifications of these practices. But the reality is, despite being so popular, these practices are some of the most insignificant in our hadith and belief tradition!
For example, there is no section on Istighatha in Al Kafi. Many people get upset or confused that perhaps our pulpits forget about God. But if one looks through Al Kafi Volume 2 in the book of Du'a, they will find that Istighatha is completely non-existent, and almost every single Du'a is directed towards Allah. Or for example, there's no section in Saduq's I'tiqadaat, or Mufid's Tashih, or Hilli's Taslik Al Nafs on "ya Ali madad."
What does this tell you about the culture of real original Tashayyu? Were Saduq and Kulayni deficient somehow? The reality is, these practices were never an extensive part of the Shia culture! Just look at Kulayni's introduction in Al Kafi, and absorb the love and attention he gave to praising Allah and the Prophet. This is a real example of the true culture of Ahlul Bayt. But despite this, so many people treat these issues as though they were a central aspect of Tashayyu that needs to be vehemently defended and focused on.
So why is this problem so prevalent? The answer is that too many people are being bystanders and spectators of their religion. Too many people let themselves take their religion passively and unquestioningly from the pulpits. People are not connected from the real original Tashayyu because they don't read the hadith and sit with real scholars who have a strong acquaintance with the Quran and hadith and the original sources. They don't learn Aqeedah from a teacher or a scholarly book. They are being passive!
The result of this has been abundantly clear: too many people are confused about little issues, and too few people understand the basics. We need to revive the original culture of Ahlul Bayt, and the only way to do that is to engage seriously and to no longer be a bystander in your own religion.

The Twelve Imams/Caliphs-Leaders in Sunni books
The Prophet (ﷺ) instructed us that there would be Twelve leaders who would succeed him. The Prophet (ﷺ) said:
1) Narrated Jabir bin Samura:
I heard the Prophet (ﷺ) saying, "There will be twelve Muslim rulers (Amirs). He then said a sentence which I did not hear. My father said, "All of them (those rulers) will be from Quraish." (Bukhari)
https://sunnah.com/bukhari:7222
2) It has been narrated on the authority of Jabir b. Samura who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: Islam will continue to be triumphant until there have been twelve Caliphs. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said something which I could not understand. I asked my father: What did he say? He said: He has said that all of them (twelve Caliphs) will be from the Quraish (Sahih Muslim)

Brothers and sisters, as-Salaamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuhu.
It is with great pleasure that I announce a newly translated book: The Promised Mahdi in the Holy Quran, by Muhammad Husayn al-Radawi. After months of working on it with the fellow brothers Dhiya and saku, as well as sister lulu and Fatima al-Ta'iyyah, we are finally done with the translation.
The book goes firstly over the general belief in Imam al-Mahdi, a short biography, as well as answering some common asked questions regarding his occultation. The second part of the book, and by far its majority, goes over all the verses of the Quran whose interpretations are regarding the Imam. It's almost 200 pages, I hope you enjoy reading it, and may this serve as a gift to Sahib al-Zaman .Don't forget us in your duas.

**Having Doubts in Religion **
"If I had not been skeptical in my earlier years, then many of those questions may have arisen for me while I was thirty or forty, but they were questions for me at the age of seventeen. Since the questions came early for me, so did the answers. It is because of this that I developed a state within me, which you may see in my life and my works, that makes me welcome matters of doubts. It makes me happy, because I have gained a level of contentment that all of these issues have an answer. This is because I have learned how to handle doubts. In my writings, I have repeated on different occasions that:
‘While doubt and skepticism are not good resting places or camping grounds, they are a good and necessary bridge to cross.’"
~ Martyr Murtadha Mutahhari (Iranian intellectual,One of the scholars who led 1979's Islamic revolution in Iran)
