The Companions and the Jewish Infulence (Part II)

==

Kaab Interfered in the Caliphate

==

Kaab took advantage of Umar's good heartedness and used all his
shrewdness to make Umar keep Imam Ali ( as ) away from the
Caliphate.

Kaab was motivated by his resentment towards
Islam and his hatred of Imam Ali (AS).

After all it was Imam Ali ( as ) who had brought the Jewish
Influence in Hijaz to an end in the battle of Khaibar.

It is amazing that the Caliph had so much confidence in Kaab, he
even sought his advice about the future of the caliphate.

Ibn
Abbas reported that Umar said to Kaab, in the very presence of Ibn
Abbas, the following...

Umar asked ...

I would like to name my
successor because my death is near.

What do you say
about Ali ? Give me your opinion and inform me of what you find in
*your books*, because you allege that we are mentioned

in *them* ?

Kaab answered ...

As to the wisdom of your opinion, it would be *unwise* to appoint
Ali as a successor because he is *very religious*.

He
notices every

deviation and does not tolerate crookedness.

He follows only his

opinion in Islamic rules and this is not a good policy.

As
far as

*our* scriptures, we find that neither he nor his children will

come to power.

And if he does, there will be confusion.

Umar asked ...

Why will he not to come to power ?

Kaab answered ...

Because he has shed blood and Allah has deprived him of authority.

When David wanted to erect Walls of the temple in Jerusalem, Allah
said to him : ' You shall not build the Temple because you have
shed blood. Only Solomon shall erect it. '

Umar asked .

.

.

Did not Ali shed blood
rightly and for the truth ?

Kaab answered ...

Ameer al-Mumineen,
David also shed blood for the truth

Umar asked ...

Who will come to power
according to *your scripture* ?

Kaab answered . . .

We find that after the
Prophet ( Peace be upon him and his Cleansed

and Pure Progeny ) and
his two ( 2 ) companions (Abu Bakr and Umar)

power will be
transfered to his enemies ( the Omayyads ) whom he

fought for religion.

When Umar heard this, he *sadly* said : ' We belong to God and to
Him we

shall return '.

Then he said to Ibn Abbas : ' Ibn Abbas,
did you hear what

Kaab said ? By God, I heard the Messenger of God say something
very

similiar.

I heard him ( Peace be upon him and his
Cleansed Progeny ) say :

The Children of Omayyad
shall ascend to my pulpit.

I have seen them

in my dreams jumping on
my puplit like monkeys.

Then the Prophet said that the following verse was revealed about
the

Omayyads :

And We made that dream,
which We have shown you, only as a test

to the people and the
cursed tree in the Quran ...

This dialogue should alert us to the deceptive and succesful
attempt on the

part of Kaab to influence future events by Satanic suggestions.

It
contains

a great deal of decepetion which produced many harmful results to
Islam and

the Muslims.

It is very easy to read the following into
this dialogue : -

1.

Kaab was
very indictive towards Imam Ali ( as ) because he was

the one who had smashed
the Jewish strong hold in the Arabic

Peninsula.

Kaab
thought, and rightly so, he would remove all the

Jewish influence from
the Arab Society.

Therefore, Kaab was very

anxious to have the
leadership in the hands of the Omayyad who were

un-concerned with the
future of Islam.

They only concerned

themselves with the
materialistic aspect of the World.

In addition

they were as hostile to
Imam Ali ( as ) as Kaab.

The Omayyads and

Kaab considered Ali
their common enemy.

He had destroyed their

leaders in the defense
of Islam.

2.

Kaab
comments that Imam Ali is highly religious and he does not

close his eyes on any
crokkedness; nor does he tolerate any

deviation from the
Islamic path, when further examined reflects

that either Kaab forgot
or he deliberately deleted from his story

that the
Messenger ( Peace be Upon him and his followers ) was the

most religious and the
most successful head of the state in the

history of the World.

3.

Kaab also
found in * his * scriptures that neither Imam Ali (as)

nor his children would
come to power because he has shed blood.

In

addition, Kaab said
that it is written that David did not build the

Temple of Jerusalem
becuase he shed blood and that his son, Solomon

was destined to build
it so.

Kaab did not mention and he made the

Caliph forget that
David, in spite of his shedding blood and being

prevented from
constructing the Temple came to power and became the

Ruling King !

The Holy Quran declares
that Allah said to David :

Oh David, We certainly
have made you Caliph on earth.

You should

judge between people
rightfully ...

[ Chapter
28 Verse 26 ]

Kaab also forgot that
the great Prophet ( saw ) shed the blood of

enemies for truth.

Infact
he led several battles and this did not

prevent him from ruling
and administering the affairs of the

Muslims, nor did it
prevent him from building an Islamic State !

4.

Furthermore,
Kaab by saying that shedding blood prevents coming

to power, makes those
who endeavour in the name of God less

valuable than those who
do not endeavour.

This contradicts the Holy

Quran which declares :
-

Those believers who sit still, other than those
who have

a disabling hurt, are not equal to those who endeavour
in

the way of Allah with their wealth and * lives *.

Allah
has

conferred upon those who endeavour for religion with their

lives and wealth a rank above those who sit ( at
home ).

And to each, Allah has promised good, but He has
bestowed

on those who strive a great reward above
the sedentary;

degrees of rank from Him, and forgiveness and Mercy.

Allah

is ever forgiving, merciful.

[ Chapter 4 Verse 95 ]

It would be illogical
to think that Allah commands people to

endeavour in His way,
then punishes the endeavours by preventing

them from coming to
power.

5.

It is
indeed very curious that Kaab claimed that the Jewish

scriptures mention that
Islamic Leadership would pass from the

Prophet ( saw ) and his
2 ( two ) companions to his enemies.

There

is no mention of
anything to this in the Old Testament in spite of

the fact that Kaab had
said to Qais Ibn Kharsha :

There is no place on earth that is not mentioned in the Old

Testament, along with the events which will happen at that

place untill the Day of Judgement.

Kaab actually did not
find in his Jewish scriptures any of the

events that he had
fabricated.

He only stole what he overheard from

the Companions of the
Prophet ( saw ).

Companions including Umar,

reported that the
Messenger ( saw ) of Allah said :

Banu Omayyad shall
climb on my pulpit and I have seen them in a

dream jumping on the
pulpit like monkeys.

It is amazing that the Calpih heard these words from the Messenger
of God

and still did not suspect Kaab had stolen them from the Jewish
scriptures.

Furthermore, Kaab said that he found in Jewish books that power
will be

transfered after the Prophet ( saw ) and his 2 ( two ) companions
to the

Prophet's ( saw ) enemies.

This, how ever did not occur.

The
caliphate

passed to Usman after Umar, and Usman was not an enemy of the
Prophet ( saw

).

He was an important companion.

Also to our
surprise the claim made by

Kaab was shattered into pieces when Imam Ali ( as ) received the
Caliphate.

It is more amazing that the Caliph heard all these false
statements which

Kaab had attributed to the Old Testament and did not even command
Kaab to

show him the Jewish book from which he received the information.

The second Caliph with all his prominence, righteouness and
intelligence

took the word of Kaab as if it came from heaven and was
inevitable.

He

forgot the matter of his successor was in his hands.

It
was entirely upto

him to choose Imam Ali ( as ) or any other eprson.

It
was expected that the

second caliph would please the Prophet ( saw ) by preventing the
Omayyads

from coming to power after seeeing the Prophet ( saw ) disturbed
over his

dream in which the Omayyads were jumping on his puplit like
monkeys.

One

word from Umar could have had changed the course of History.

The second caliph could have appointed Imam Ali ( as ) as his
sucessor and

prevented the Omayyads from coming to power.

Unfortunately,
he kept the

Imam away from the Caliphate by forming a six member comittee,
most of them

who were very un-friendly to Imam Ali ( as ) and friendly to Usman,
the

righteous Omayyad who was extremely attached to his clan.

Contrary
to what

was expected, however, the second caliph did that which Kaab liked
and the

Prophet ( saw ) disliked.

v3, p35

Thus a Jew, newly converted to Islam, claiming that he had
knowledge of

what was in the past and what will be in the future, was able to
change the

course of Islamic History through his influence on a prominent
Caliph,

Umar.

What a historic catastrophe !

To be continued, Insha Allah ...
