Concept of Ismāt-e-‘Āmbiā: An Analytical Study In The Light Of the Islamic Sources

Abstract

The belief of Ismāt-e-‘Āmbiā (infallibility of Prophets) is the belief about the Prophets of Islam, on which the whole structure of Islam stands and the Muslim ‘Ummah has a consensus on this issue. Which means that all the Prophets (Peace be upon Them) are safe from minor, major sins and from skepticism/ polytheism. (Mūfāssireen) Interpreters of Qur'an are privileged among the Islamic scholars, because they serve in inferring the word of ‘Āllah, ie the Qur'an, which is the essence of Islam. However, in view of the importance of the (Mūfāssireen) commentators as a preference over other classes, the remarks of the commentators will be presented first in this article in the light of the Qur'an. Later, the arguments of the Mūhāddithin and the jurists of the ‘Ummah and the theologians will be explained. From Adam (AS) to the last Prophet Muhammad all Prophets (peace be upon them) are chosen and innocent in every way. Therefore in the Holy Qur'an words of praise have been used for the Prophets (peace be upon them) by the ‘Āllah Almighty. The Prophets are better than the angels and the fact is proved by the fact that the angels did not commit any sin. So if the Prophets (peace be upon them) evidenced to committing sins, then their superiority over the angels will be forbidden. If sins are committed by the Prophets (peace be upon them) then the Prophets (peace be upon them) deserve more condemnation in this world and punishment in the Hereafter more than the common sinners of the Ummah, which is impossible and incorrect, so the issuance of sins from them is never possible. This Article in Urdu will cover all these aspects in the light of the words of Mūfāssireen, Mūhāddithin, jurists and the theologians of Islam.
