MDOGO KATIKA UFALME WA MUNGU
THE SMALLER IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD
Unabii mwingine ambao Yesu alitoa unatuambia kuhusu Masihi anayetarajiwa. Unathibitisha kwamba yeye ndiye nabii mkuu kuliko manabii wote, ndiye nabii aitwaye Eliya, na ndiye nabii ambaye manabii waliotangulia walitabiri zamu kwa zamu. Yesu (PBUH) alisema, "Kweli nawaambia, miongoni mwa waliozaliwa na wanawake, hakuna aliye mkuu kuliko Yohana; lakini yule aliye mdogo zaidi katika ufalme wa Mungu ni mkuu kuliko yeye. Tangu siku za Yohana Mbatizaji hata sasa, ufalme wa mbinguni unastahimili nguvu, na wenye nguvu wanauchukua kwa nguvu. Maana manabii wote na torati walitabiri hadi Yohana. Na kama mkiwa tayari kukubali, yeye ndiye Eliya, ambaye atakuja. Mwenye masikio na asikie." (Mathayo 11:11-15) Basi, aliye mdogo katika ufalme wa mbinguni ni Eliya, yule aliyetangazwa kuja, ambaye manabii waliteta kumhusu mmoja baada ya mwingine, mwisho wao akiwa Yohana Mbatizaji.
Another prophecy that Jesus gave, tells us about the expected messiah. It confirms that he is the greatest of all prophets, he is the prophet named Elijah, and that he is the prophet whom the previous prophets took turns prophesizing. Jesus (PBUH) said, "Truly, I say to you, among those born of women, none is greater than John: yet the one who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he. From the days of John, the Baptist, until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force. For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. And if you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah, who is to come. He who has ears to hear, let him hear. " (Matthew: 11/11-15) thus, the smaller in the Kingdom of heavens is Elijah, the one proclaimed to come, the one the prophets told about one after another, ending by John the Baptist.
Ni nani Eliya, aliye mdogo katika ufalme wa mbinguni? Ni Muhammad Mjumbe wa Mungu ﷺ. Yeye ni mdogo kwa kuchelewa kwake kwa wakati ikilinganishwa na mitume wengine wote, lakini amewapita wote kwa ukamilifu wa ujumbe wake, na kwa Mungu kumfanya dini yake kuwa dini ya mwisho hadi Siku ya Hukumu. Basi kama hakuwa Muhammad ﷺ, ni nani atakayekuwa?
Who is Elijah, the smaller in the kingdom of heavens? He is Muhammad the messenger of God (PBUH). Who is small by his delay in time compared to the rest of the prophets, but he exceeded them all by the completion of his message, and with God granting his faith to be the final religion until the Day of Judgment, so if he was not Muhammad (PBUH), who will he be?
Haikubaliki kwamba Mkristo adai kuwa Yesu (amani iwe juu yake) ndiye mjumbe na nabii wa mwisho, akitegemea kuamini ujumbe wa wanafunzi wake na hata ujumbe wa wengine kama Paulo. Zaidi ya hayo, ujumbe wake (amani iwe juu yake) haukukamilika, kwa sababu ya masahihisho na mabadiliko yaliyofanywa na mitume katika Baraza la Kwanza la Yerusalemu, wakidai kwamba ilikuwa ni ili kuwarahisishia Wakristo wapya wanaoongoka; hivyo wakaondoa tohara, na kuruhusu baadhi ya yale ambayo Torati iliyafanya kuwa haramu.
It is not acceptable that a Christian claim that Jesus (PBUH) is the last messenger and prophet, basing their claim on believing in his disciples’ message and even in others’ like Paul. Moreover, his message (PBUH) was not completed, for the correction and the editing made by the apostles in the First Jerusalem Council claiming that it is to make it easy for the new Christians convert, so they cancelled circumcision, and allowed some of what the Torah made unlawful.
Neno "ndogo" halilingani na Yesu (amani iwe juu yake), kwa sababu yeye hakuwa nabii wa mwisho. Zaidi ya hayo, haikusemwa wala kueleweka kwamba alikuwa akizungumza juu ya nafsi yake aliposema, "Kweli nawaambia, miongoni mwa waliozaliwa na wanawake, hakuna aliye mkuu kuliko Yohana; lakini aliye mdogo zaidi katika ufalme wa Mungu ni mkuu kuliko yeye. Tangu siku za Yohana Mbatizaji hata sasa ufalme wa mbinguni unateswa kwa nguvu, na wenye nguvu wanautwaa kwa bidii. Kwa maana manabii wote na Torati walitabiri hadi wakati wa Yohana. Na kama mko tayari kukubali, yeye ndiye Eliya atakayekuja. Mwenye masikio na asikie." (Mathayo 11:11-15).
Based on that, the word "the smaller" does not match Jesus (PBUH), because he was not the last prophet. In addition, it was not stated or understood that he was talking about himself when he said, " Truly, I say to you, among those born of women, none is greater than John: yet the one who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he. From the days of John, the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force. For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. And if you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah, who is to come. He, who has ears to hear, let him hear." (Mathew: 11/11-15).
Hiyo ndogo huja pamoja na ufalme wa mbinguni, ambao haukuwa umeanzishwa wakati huo, na alitangazwa kuja lakini bado hajaja; huyo ni Muhammad ﷺ.
That smaller comes with the kingdom of heavens, which has not been established at that time, and he was proclaimed to come but he has not come yet, he is Muhammad (PBUH).
