Kuhusu kukubali mwingine, ili tu kujua maoni yake, bila kutoa hukumu dhidi yake, na bila kukanusha anachosema, hilo si katika mbinu ya Kiislamu hata kidogo. Bali yale ambayo Kitabu kinayaashiria yanapingana kabisa na hilo. Qur'ani Tukufu inasema: {Wamesema: "Ar-Rahmaan amejifanyia mtoto." Hakika mmeleta jambo baya mno! Ambalo karibu mbingu zipasuke, na ardhi ipasuke, na milima iporomoke kwa uharibifu. Kwa kuwa wanamnasibishia Ar-Rahmaan mtoto. Wala si lazima kwa Ar-Rahmaan kujifanyia mtoto} [TMQ Maryam: 88-92].

As for accepting the other, in order to merely know his opinions, without pronouncing judgments against him, and without refuting what he says, is not of the Islamic method whatsoever. Rather, what the Book indicates is completely contradictory to that. When the Noble Qur'an "They say: 'Ar-Rahmaan has begotten a child.' Indeed you have brought forth a terrible evil thing! Whereby the heavens are almost torn down, the earth split asunder and the mountains fall in ruin. That they ascribe a child to Ar-Rahmaan. And it is not suitable for Ar-Rahmaan to beget a child" [TMQ Maryam: 88-92].

"Na wanasema: 'Ahadi hii (itatimia) lini, ikiwa nyinyi ni wakweli?' Lau tu wale waliokufuru wangejua wakati ambao hawataweza kuzuia Moto usiwafikie nyuso zao wala migongo yao, wala hawatanusuriwa. Bali utawajia ghafla na kuwashtua, wala hawatakuwa na uwezo wa kuuzuia, wala hawatapewa muhula."

"And they say: 'When will this promise (come to pass), if you are truthful?' If only those who disbelieved knew when they will not be able to ward off the Fire from their faces nor their backs. Nor will they be helped. Nay, it will come upon them suddenly and perplex them. And they will have no power to avert it nor will they get respite" [TMQ Al-Anbiya: 38-40].

And:

"Na kumbukeni pale mlipomwambia: 'Ee Musa, hatutakuamini kamwe mpaka tumwone Mwenyezi Mungu waziwazi.' Ndipo radi ikakushikeni huku mkitazama."

"And when you said: 'O Musa, we shall never believe in you until we see Allah plainly.' And you were seized with a thunder bolt while you were looking" [TMQ Al-Baqarah: 55].

Na:

And:

"Na inaposemwa kwao: 'Aminini yale aliyoteremsha Allah', husema: 'Tunaamini yale tuliyoteremshiwa sisi', nao wanakufuru yaliyo baada yake, ilhali ni haki inayothibitisha yaliyo pamoja nao. Sema: 'Basi kwa nini mliwaua Manabii wa Allah zamani kama kweli mlikuwa waumini?'" [TMQ Al-Baqarah: 91].

"And when it was said to them: 'Believe in what Allah revealed', they said: 'We believe in what was revealed to us' and they disbelieve in what is after it while it is the truth confirming that which is with them. Say: 'Why then did you kill the Prophets of Allah aforetime if you were (indeed) believers?'" [TMQ Al-Baqarah: 91].

"Na wanasema: 'Hakuna atakayeingia Peponi isipokuwa ni Myahudi au Mkristo.' Hayo ni matamanio yao. Sema: 'Leteni dalili yenu ikiwa mnasema kweli.' Bali yeyote anayejisalimisha uso wake kwa Allah na ni mfanyaji wa wema, malipo yake yako kwa Allah. Hao hawatakuwa na khofu wala hawatahuzunika."

"And they say: 'None shall enter Paradise except he be a Jew or Christian.' Those are their desires. Say: 'Produce your proof if you are truthful.' Rather whoever submits his face to Allah and is a doer of good, his reward is with Allah. Such will not fear nor will they grieve" [TMQ Al-Baqarah: 111-112].

Na wanasema: "Mwenyezi Mungu amejifanyia mtoto." Ametakasika! Bali ni Vyake vyote vilivyomo mbinguni na ardhini. Vyote vinamnyenyekea Yeye kwa utiifu. {Al-Baqarah: 116}

"And they say: 'Allah has begotten a child.' Glory be to Him! Nay, to Him belongs all that is in the heavens and the earth. All surrender to Him with obedience" [TMQ Al-Baqarah: 116].

Na:

And:

Nao wanasema: "Kuweni Mayahudi au Manaswara (ndipo) mtaongoka." Sema: "Bali (tunafuata) dini ya Ibrahimu, naye hakuwa miongoni mwa washirikina." [TMQ Al-Baqarah: 135]

And they say: 'Be Jews or Christians (then) you will be guided.' Say: 'Nay, the creed of Ibrahim, and he was not of the polytheists'" [TMQ Al-Baqarah: 135].

"Je, hujamwona yule aliyebishana na Ibrahimu kuhusu Mola wake kwa sababu Allah alikuwa amempa ufalme? Ibrahimu alipomwambia: 'Mola wangu ndiye anayetoa uhai na kusababisha kufa,' yeye akasema: 'Mimi natoa uhai na kusababisha kufa.' Ibrahimu akasema: 'Hakika Allah huliinua jua kutoka mashariki, basi wewe lipandishe kutoka magharibi.' Hivyo yule kafiri akashindwa kabisa. Na Allah hawaongoi watu madhalimu." [TMQ Al-Baqarah: 258]. Ingawa aya hii ilikuwa ni ya Sharia ya wale waliotutangulia, hata hivyo imeanza kwa kauli yake (SWT): "

"Have you not considered about he who disputed with Ibrahim about his Lord because Allah had given him the kingdom? When Ibrahim said to him: 'My Lord is He who gives life and causes death.' He said: 'I give life and cause death.' Ibrahim said: 'Verily Allah causes the sun to rise in the east thus you cause it to rise in the west.' Thus the disbeliever was utterly defeated. And Allah guides not the unjust folk" [TMQ Al-Baqarah: 258]. Even though this ayah was of the Shar'a of those before us, however it commenced with His saying subhanahu:

Na:

And:

Wale waliosema kuhusu ndugu zao hali wamekaa (nyumbani): "Lau wangetutii, wasingeuawa." Sema: "Zuieni mauti kutoka kwenu wenyewe ikiwa mnasema kweli!" [TMQ Al-Imran: 168].

"Those who said about their brothers while they sat (at home): 'Had they obeyed us, they would not have been killed.' Say: 'Avert death from yourselves if you speak the truth!'" [TMQ Al-Imran: 168].

Na:

And:

"Wale waliosema: 'Hakika Mwenyezi Mungu ametuagiza kwamba tusimwamini Mtume yeyote mpaka atuletee sadaka ambayo moto utaila.' Sema: 'Wamekwisha kukujieni Mitume kabla yangu wenye hoja zilizo wazi na kwa hayo mliyoyasema. Basi mbona mliwaua ikiwa mnasema kweli?'" [TMQ Al-Imran: 183].

"Those who said: 'Verily Allah has taken our promise not to believe in any Messenger unless he brings to us an offering which fire devours.' Say: 'There came to you Messengers before me with clear proofs and with what you speak of. Why then did you kill them if you are truthful?'" [TMQ Al-Imran: 183].

Na:

And:

Na Mayahudi husema: "Mkono wa Mwenyezi Mungu umefungwa!" Mikono yao ndiyo iliyofungwa, na walaaniwe kwa wanayoyasema. Bali mikono Yake yote miwili imetandazwa wazi. Hutoa apendavyo. [TMQ Al-Mai'dah: 64]

"And the Jews say: 'Allah's hand is tied up!' Be their hands tied up and be they accursed for what they say! Nay, both His hands are widely outstretched. He spends as He wishes" [TMQ Al-Mai’dah: 64].

Na:

And:

"Wale wanaomshirikisha (Allah) watasema: 'Lau Allah angetaka, hatungemshirikisha wala tusingeharamisha chochote.' Vivyo hivyo waliwakanusha wale waliotangulia kabla yao mpaka wakaonja adhabu Yetu. Sema: 'Je, mna elimu yoyote mtutolee hiyo? Hakika hamufuati ila dhana (dhann) tu, na hamfanyi ila kusema uongo.'"

"Those who associate (with Allah) will say: 'If Allah had willed, we would not have associated nor would we have forbidden anything.' Likewise belied those before them until they tasted Our wrath. Say: 'Have you any knowledge so that you produce it for us? Verily you follow nothing but conjecture (dhann) and you do nothing but lie" [TMQ Al-An’am: 148].

Na:

And:

Na Mayahudi wanasema: "Uzairi ni mwana wa Mwenyezi Mungu," na Wakristo wanasema: "Al-Masihi ni mwana wa Mwenyezi Mungu." Hayo ni maneno yao vinywani mwao. Wanaiga kauli ya wale waliokufuru zamani. Laana ya Mwenyezi Mungu iko juu yao, jinsi wanavyosema uongo! {Wamewafanya maulamaa wao na watawa wao kuwa miungu badala ya Mwenyezi Mungu, na pia Al-Masihi mwana wa Maryamu, ilhali hawakuamriwa ila wamwabudu Mungu Mmoja. Hakuna mungu isipokuwa Yeye. Ametakasika na yale wanayomshirikisha nayo.} [TMQ At-Taubah: 30-31].

"And the Jews say: 'Uzayr is the son of Allah' and the Christians say: 'The Messiah is the son of Allah.' That is their saying from their mouths. They imitate the saying of those who disbelieved of old. Allah's curse is upon them, how they lie! They took their rabbis and monks as lords besides Allah and the Messiah son of Mary while they were not commanded save to worship one Lord. There is no god but He. Glorified is He beyond what they associate!" [TMQ At-Taubah: 30-1].

Na:

And:

"Na inaposomewa kwao Aya Zetu zilizo wazi, wale wasiotarajia kukutana Nasi husema: 'Leta Qur'an nyingine isiyo hii, au ibadilishe.' Sema: 'Si juu yangu kuibadilisha kwa hiari yangu mwenyewe. Mimi nafuata tu kile kilichoteremshwa kwangu. Hakika naogopa, nikimwasi Mola wangu Mlezi, adhabu ya Siku Kubwa.' Sema: 'Lau Allah angelitaka, nisingeliisoma kwenu, wala Yeye asingeliwajulisha. Nimekaa kati yenu maisha yote kabla ya hii. Je, hamna akili?'" {TMQ Yunus: 15-6}.

"And when Our clear aayaat are recited to them, those who expect not meeting Us say: 'Bring us a Qur'an other than this or change it.' Say: 'It is not for me to change it of my own accord. I only follow that which was revealed unto Me. Verily I fear, if I disobey my Lord, the punishment of a Great Day.' Say: 'If Allah had so willed, I should not have recited it to you nor would He have made it known to you, I had stayed among you a lifetime before this. Have you then no sense?'" [TMQ Yunus: 15-6].

Na:

And:

"Na wanasema: 'Hakuna kitu isipokuwa maisha yetu haya ya dunia, tunakufa na tunaishi, na hakuna kitu kinachotuangamiza isipokuwa wakati. Hawana elimu ya hilo, wanakisia tu. Na zinaposomwa kwao aya zetu zilizo wazi, hoja yao si nyingine ila kusema: Warudisheni baba zetu ikiwa mnasema kweli.' Sema: 'Allah anawapa uhai kisha anawafisha, kisha atawakusanya Siku ya Kiyama ambayo hakuna shaka juu yake, lakini watu wengi hawajui.'" [TMQ Al-Jathiya: 24-26]. Hata aya za Surat Al-Kahf, ambazo mmoja wao alizitumia kama ushahidi, hazitoki nje ya mtindo huu wa kukanusha dhana au dhana za kufuru. Wala mazungumzo hayo, kama wanavyosema, si mchakato wa kiakili tu; bali ni kuelewa na kukanusha dhana za kufuru. Hili liko wazi katika kumkemea Sahaba, akikataa kufuru ya mmoja wa wawili hao, akisema:

"And they say: 'There is nothing but our life of this world, we die and we live and nothing destroys us except time. They have no knowledge of it, they only conjecture. And when Our clear aayaat are recited to them, their argument is not other than that they say: 'Bring back our fathers if you are truthful.' Say: 'Allah gives you life then causes you to dies, then He will assemble you on the Day of Resurrection about which there is no doubt but most of mankind know not'" [TMQ Al-Jathiya: 24- 6]. Even the aayaat of Surah Al-Kahf, which one of them used as evidence, does not depart from this style of refuting the concept or concepts of kufr. Nor is the dialogue, as they say, a mere intellectual process only; rather it is understanding and refuting the concepts of kufr. This is clear in the rebuke of the companion, rejecting the kufr of one of the two, saying:

Je, unamkufuru Yule aliyekuumba kutokana na udongo, kisha kutokana na tone la manii, kisha akakufanya mwanadamu kamili? Lakini mimi, Yeye ndiye Allah Mola wangu, wala sitamshirikisha Mola wangu na yeyote. Na ungeliposema ulipoingia bustanini mwako: "Lolote analotaka Allah (litatokea), hakuna uwezo isipokuwa kwa Allah." Ukiniona mimi nina mali kidogo kuliko wewe na watoto, huenda Mola wangu akanipa bora kuliko bustani yako, na akaiteremshia adhabu kutoka mbinguni, basi itakuwa ardhi tupu yenye utelezi. Au maji yake

Do you disbelieve in He who created you dust then out of a (nutfah) then fashioned you a man? But as for me, He is Allah my Lord and none shall I associate with my Lord. Had you, when you entered your garden, only said: 'Whatever Allah wills (will occur), there is no power except with Allah.' If you see me less than you in property and children, perhaps my Lord will give me better than your garden and send upon it a (husband) from the sky, then it will be a slippery earth. Or its water

{ Mtu huyo akasema akiwa anamjibu rafiki yake, katika kumshauri: "Je, wewe unamkataa Yule aliyekuumba kutokana na udongo, kisha kutokana na tone la manii, kisha akakufanya mtu kamili?" } Lakini mimi, Allah ndiye Mola wangu, wala simshirikishi Mola wangu na yeyote. Na kwa nini ulipoingia katika bustani yako hukusema: "Yote anayotaka Allah; hakuna uwezo isipokuwa kwa Allah"? Ukiniona mimi ni mdogo kwako kwa mali na watoto, huenda Mola wangu akanipa bora kuliko bustani yako, na akatuma juu yake adhabu kutoka mbinguni, ikawa ardhi tupu isiyo na chochote, au maji yake yakazama ardhini kiasi kwamba hutaweza kuyatafuta. Je, inawezekanaje kusemwa kwamba sahaba hakutoa hukumu wakati anamkemea akisema: "Je, unamkataa Muumba wako?" Kisha anamwelekeza kwenye kile kinachompasa kusema, yaani: "Yote anayotaka Allah; hakuna uwezo isipokuwa kwa Allah." Kisha anamfafanulia uwezo wa Muumba Mwenye kuweza yote (Al-Qadir) wa kutuma radi kutoka mbinguni na kuyafanya maji yatoweke. Basi inawezekanaje kusemwa kwamba hii ni mfano wa mazungumzo ya kidini yasiyo na mipaka wala masharti, bila kutoa hukumu, na kukubali mwingine jinsi alivyo?

becomes deep sunken so that you will not be able to seek it" [TMQ Al-Kahf: 37-41]. So how can it be said that the companion did not pronounce judgment while he rebukes him saying: 'Do you disbelieve in your creator?' Then he directs him to what is obliged upon him to say namely: 'Whatever Allah wills, there is no power except with Allah.' Then he explained to him the power of the All-Capable (Al-Qadir) Creator to send the bolt (from heaven) and make the water disappear. So how can it be said that this is a model of religious dialogue without restriction or condition, without pronouncing judgments and accepting the other as he is?

Kuhusu yule anayetumia kama ushahidi kauli yake (SWT):

As for the one using as evidence His (SWTH) saying:

"Sema: 'Enyi makafiri! Mimi siabudu mnachokiabudu. Na nyinyi hamuabudu ninachokiabudu'" [TMQ Al-Kafirun: 1-3] kwa ajili ya mazungumzo na makafiri (kuffar), na kauli yake ﷺ:

Say: 'O you disbelievers! I do not worship that which you worship. And you do not worship what I worship'" [TMQ Al-Kafirun: 1-3] for dialogue with disbelievers (kuffar) and His ﷺ saying:

"Ikiwa mmoja wa washirikina anakutaka ulinzi wako, mpe ulinzi mpaka asikie neno la Allah; kisha mfikishe mahali pake salama" [TMQ At-Tawbah: 6] kwa ajili ya mazungumzo na washirikina; hii ni hitimisho lisilo sahihi na nje ya muktadha wake. Surat Al-Kafirun imetoa hukumu dhidi yao, inayosema kwamba wao ni makafiri na watabaki katika ukafiri wao bila kamwe kuamini. Allah subhanahu alijua kwamba hawatawahi kuamini kamwe, na akamjulisha Mtume wa Allah ﷺ kuhusu hilo. Akamwamuru amfikishie ujumbe huo ili wao wapate kuwajibika kwa kile walichopewa. Basi hakuna nafasi yoyote ya mazungumzo baada ya Allah subhanahu kutujulisha kwamba wataendelea kuwa makafiri mpaka kufa. Sura hii iliteremka kuhusu watu maalum. Allah amesema kweli. Baadhi yao walikufuru na baadhi yao waliuawa; na hakuna hata mmoja wao aliyeamini.
