Muhammad the Forgetful:-
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 1.777 Narrated byAbu Salama
Once I went to Abu- Sa'id Al-Khudri and asked him, "Won't you come with us to the date-palm trees to have a talk?" So Abu Said went out and I asked him, "Tell me what you heard from the Prophet about the Night of Qadr." Abu Said replied, "Once Allah's Apostle performed Itikaf (seclusion) on the first ten days of the month of Ramadan and we did the same with him. Gabriel came to him and said, 'The night you are looking for is ahead of you.' So the Prophet performed the Itikaf in the middle (second) ten days of the month of Ramadan and we too performed Itikaf with him. Gabriel came to him and said, 'The night which you are looking for is ahead of you.'
In the morning of the 20th of Ramadan the Prophet delivered a sermon saying, 'Whoever has performed Itikaf with me should continue it. I have been shown the Night of "Qadr", but have FORGOTTEN its date, but it is in the odd nights of the last ten nights. I saw in my dream that I was prostrating in mud and water.'
In those days the roof of the mosque was made of branches of date-palm trees. At that time the sky was clear and no cloud was visible, but suddenly a cloud came and it rained. The Prophet led us in the prayer and I saw the traces of mud on the forehead and on the nose of Allah's Apostle. So it was the confirmation of that dream."
*** Muhammad, the self proclaimed 'greatest of all the other prophets' could not REMEMBER the date of the most MOMENTOUS event in his life, the night of 'revelation' of the first verse of the Quran.
Since Muhammad could not even remember the date of a recent and extremely important event and was not able to predict any future event, by what standard of logical measurement could he be called a PROPHET? ***
Sahih Muslim HadithHadith 328 Narrated byAbuHurayrah
The Messenger of Allah, (peace be upon him) said: I found myself in Hijr and the Quraysh were asking me about my night journey.
I was asked about things pertaining to Bayt al-Maqdis, which I could not preserve (in my mind) [forgot]. I was very much vexed, so vexed as I had never been before.
Then Allah raised it (Bayt al-Maqdis) before my eyes. I looked towards it, and I gave them the information about whatever they questioned me. I also saw myself among the group of apostles. I saw Moses saying a prayer and found him to be a well-built man as if he were a man of the tribe of Shanu'ah. I saw Jesus, son of Mary, (peace be upon him) offering prayer; of all men he had the closet resemblance to Urwah ibn Mas'ud ath-Thaqafi. I saw Ibrahim (peace be upon him) offering prayer; he had the closet resemblance to your companion (the Prophet himself) amongst people. When the time of prayer came I led them. When I completed the prayer, someone said: Here is Malik, the keeper of the Hell; give him salutation. I turned to him, but he preceded me in salutation.
*** Once more does Muhammad admit to his FALLIBLE MEMORY.
Yet again, Muhammad could not REMEMBER another MOMENTOUS event in his life; what the - NONE EXISTANT - Temple of Solomon looked like although he had allegedly landed there only a few hours earlier and conducted prayers at the head of all of the other dead earlier Hebrew Prophets ***
Sahih Muslim HadithHadith 2631 Narrated byAbdullah ibn Unays
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said:
I was shown laylat al-Qadr; then I was made to forget it, and saw that I was prostrating in water and clay in the morning of that (night), He (the narrator) said: There was a downpour on the twenty-third night and the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) led us in prayer, and as he went back, there was a trace of water and clay on his forehead and on his nose. He (the narrator) said: Abdullah ibn Unays used to say that it was the twenty-third (night).
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 1.394 Narrated byAbdullah
The Prophet prayed (and the sub-narrator Ibrahim said, "I do not know whether he prayed more or less than usual"), and when he had finished the prayers he was asked, "O Allah's Apostle! Has there been any change in the prayers?" He said, "What is it?' The people said, "You have prayed so much and so much." So the Prophet bent his legs, faced the Qibla and performed two prostration's (of Sahu) and finished his prayers with Taslim (by turning his face to right and left saying: "As-Salamu'Alaikum-Warahmat-ullah"). When he turned his face to us he said,
"If there had been anything changed in the prayer, surely I would have informed you but I am a human being like you and liable to forget like you. So if I forget remind me and if anyone of you is doubtful about his prayer, he should follow what he thinks to be correct and complete his prayer accordingly and finish it and do two prostrations (of Sahu)."
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 3.233 Narrated byAbu Salama
I asked Abu Sa'id, and he was a friend of mine, (about the Night of Qadr) and he said, "We practiced Itikaf (seclusion in the mosque) in the middle third of the month of Ramadan with the Prophet. In the morning of the 20th of Ramadan, the Prophet came and addressed us and said,
'I was informed of (the date of the Night of Qadr) but I was caused to forget it;
so search for it in the odd nights of the last ten nights of the month of Ramadan. (In the dream) I saw myself prostrating in mud and water (as a sign). So, whoever was in Itikaf with me should return to it with me (for another 10-day period)', and we returned. At that time there was no sign of clouds in the sky but suddenly a cloud came and it rained till rainwater started leaking through the roof of the mosque which was made of date-palm leaf stalks. Then the prayer was established and I saw Allah's Apostle prostrating in mud and water and I saw the traces of mud on his forehead."
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 3.244 Narrated byAbu Said Al Khudri
Allah's Apostle used to practice Itikaf in the middle ten days of Ramadan and once he stayed in Itikaf till the night of the twenty-first and it was the night in the morning of which he used to come out of his Itikaf. The Prophet said, "Whoever was in Itikaf with me should stay in Itikaf for the last ten days, for I was informed (of the date) of the Night (of Qadr) but I have been caused to forget it.
(In the dream) I saw myself prostrating in mud and water in the morning of that night. So, look for it in the last ten nights and in the odd ones of them." It rained that night and the roof of the mosque dribbled as it was made of leaf stalks of date-palms. I saw with my own eyes the mark of mud and water on the forehead of the Prophet (i.e. in the morning of the twenty-first).
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 6.233 Narrated byJabir bin Abdullah
The Prophet said, "When the Quraish disbelieved me (concerning my night journey), I stood up in Al-Hijr (the unroofed portion of the Ka'ba) and Allah displayed Bait-ul-Maqdis before me, and I started to inform them (Quraish) about its signs while looking at it."
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 6.550 Narrated byAbdullah
The Prophet said, "It is a bad thing that some of you say,
'I have forgotten such-and-such verse of the Qur'an,' for indeed, he has been caused (by Allah) to forget it.
So you must keep on reciting the Qur'an because it escapes from the hearts of men faster than camel do."
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 6.558 Narrated byAisha
Allah's Apostle heard a man reciting the Qur'an at night, and said, "May Allah bestow His Mercy on him, as he has reminded me of such-and-such Verses of such-and-such Suras, which I was caused to forget."
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 6.559 Narrated byAbdullah
The Prophet said, "Why does anyone of the people say, 'I have forgotten such-and-such Verses (of the Qur'an)?' He, in fact, is caused (by Allah) to forget."
Sunan of Abu-DawoodHadith 1015 Narrated byAbdullah ibn Mas'ud
The Apostle of Allah (peace be upon him) offered prayer. The version of the narrator Ibrahim goes: I do not know whether he increased or decreased (the rak'ahs of prayer). When he gave the salutation, he was asked: Has something new happened in the prayer, Apostle of Allah? He said: What is it? They said: You prayed so many and so many (rak'ahs). He then relented his foot and faced the Qiblah and made two prostrations. He then gave the salutation. When he turned away (finished the prayer), he turned his face to us and said: Had anything new happened in prayer, I would have informed you.
I am only a human being and I forget just as you do; so when I forget, remind me, and when any of you is in doubt about his prayer he should aim at what is correct, and complete his prayer in that respect, then give the salutation and afterwards made two prostrations.
Sahih Muslim HadithHadith 2624 Narrated byAbuHurayrah
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said: I was shown Laylat al-Qadr; then some members of my family woke me up, then I was caused to forget it. So seek it in the last week. Harmalah said: (The Prophet did not say: "I was made to forget," but he stated): "But I forgot it."
*** It was typical of Muhammad NEVER to admit error or fault but BLAME everything on OUTSIDE agents such as: Allah, Gabriel, Satan, Quraysh, Jews, Etc ***
