night" • U ﷺ ham aytgan: "Kim Ramazon ro'zasini tutib, so'ngra Shavvol oyida oltita ro'za tutsa, u go'yo abadiy ro'za tutgandek bo'ladi."2 U ﷺ yana aytgan: "Kim «Qul huvallohu ahad» surasini o'qisa, go'yo Qur'onning uchdan bir qismini o'qigandek bo'ladi."3 Ma'lumki, yuqoridagi hadislarda zikr qilingan amallar qiluvchisining ajri, o'xshatilgan kishining ajriga yetmaydi. Agar ularni ajr jihatidan teng deb hisoblasak, xufton va bomdod namozlarini jamoat bilan o'qib, orasida tun bo'yi nafl namoz o'qigan kishi faqat o'zini tun bo'yi charchatgan bo'lar edi, unga qo'shimcha ajr yo'q bo'lardi. Agar: "Unda bir kishini o'ldirgan va yuzta kishini o'ldirgan kishi o'rtasida qanday o'xshashlik bor?" desa, o'xshashlik ko'p jihatdan bordir: Birinchidan, ikkalasi ham Allohga va Uning Rasuliga ﷺ itoatsizlik qilgan, Allohning azobiga duchor bo'lishga loyiq, ikkalasi ham Allohning g'azabi va la'natiga uchragan va abadiy do'zaxda qoladi. Ular o'rtasidagi farq do'zaxning eng pastki darajalarida azoblanishidadir. Ikkinchidan, ikkalasi ham teng ravishda o'ldirilishga loyiqdir. Uchinchidan, ikkalasi ham nohaq o'ldirishni xohlashda teng gunohkordir. Kim yer yuzida fasod qilish uchun, hech bir haqqi bo'lmagan holda bir kishini o'ldirsa, u mol-mulkini olish uchun istalgan kishini o'ldirishi mumkin; shu sababli u insoniyatning dushmanidir! To'rtinchidan, Alloh ~ mo'minlarni bir-birlariga bo'lgan rahm-shafqat va hamdardlikda bir tana qilib yaratgan; shuning uchun qotil bu tananing bir qismiga zarar yetkazsa, tananing boshqa barcha qismlari ham og'riydi. Shunday ekan, kim bir mo'minga zarar yetkazsa, go'yo barcha mo'minlarga zarar yetkazgandek bo'ladi. Nabiy ﷺ aytdilar: "Hech bir inson nohaq o'ldirilmaydi, lekin bu jinoyatning bir qismi yer yuzida qotillik an'anasini joriy qilgan Odam farzandining birinchisi (Qobil)ning zimmasiga yuklatiladi." 4 Garchi bu azob va’dasi birinchi zinokor, birinchi o‘g‘ri yoki birinchi ichkilikbozga hech qachon tatbiq etilmagan bo‘lsa-da, birinchi mushrik bu jazoga birinchi qotildan ko‘ra ko‘proq loyiq bo‘lardi, chunki u shirkning birinchi namunasini ko‘rsatgan bo‘lardi. Aynan shu sababli Nabiy ﷺ Umar ibn Luhay al-Xuzoiyning Do‘zax olovida eng og‘ir jazoga duchor bo‘lganini aytganlar, chunki u birinchi bo‘lib Ibrohim ﷺ dinini o‘zgartirgan edi. Allah ta’olo aytadi: {va u haqda birinchi bo‘lib kofir bo‘lmang} 5, ya’ni odamlar sizni — sizdan keyin ham — namuna qilib olmasin, aks holda ularning kufr gunohlari sizning zimmangizga tushardi. Xuddi shu hukm yomon odat boshlab, odamlar unga ergashgan kishiga ham tegishlidir. Abdulloh ibn Abbod ﷺ rivoyat qiladi: Nabiy ﷺ aytdilar: “Qiyomat kuni o‘ldirilganlar o‘z qotilini peshonasidan va boshini qo‘lida ko‘tarib, tomirlaridan qon oqqan holda keltiradi va aytadi: ‘Ey Rabbim, u meni o‘ldirgan’, to‘g‘ri uni arsh yoniga yetkazguncha.” Odamlar Ibn Abbos ﷺ ga tavba haqida so‘z ochdilar, lekin u quyidagi oyatni o‘qidi: {Kim mo‘minni ataylab o‘ldirsa, uning jazosi abadiy qolishi uchun Jahannamdir} 1, va dedi: “Bu oyat na mansux qilingan, na o‘zgargan, unday bo‘lsa, unga tavbaning qanday foydasi bo‘lishi mumkin?” 2 Nofi’ aytadi: “Abdulloh ibn Umar bir kuni Ka’baga qarab dedi: ‘Sen qanchalik ulug‘san va hurmating qanchalik buyuk; lekin Allah huzurida mo‘minning hurmati undan ham ulug‘roqdir!’” Abu Hurayra ﷺ rivoyat qiladi: Nabiy ﷺ aytdilar: “Musulmonni so‘kish fisq (ya’ni gunohkorlik), uni o‘ldirish esa kufrdir.” 3 Nabiy ﷺ yana aytdilar: “Ogoh bo‘linglar! Mendan keyin bir-biringizning bo‘yinlaringizni urib, kofirlarga aylanmanglar.” 4 Nabiy ﷺ aytdilar: “Kim musulmonlar bilan ahdi bo‘lgan kishini o‘ldirsa, Jannat hidini hidlamaydi, holbuki uning hidi qirq yillik masofadan sezilib turadi.” 5 Bu — ahd-zimmat ostida bo‘lgan kofirni o‘ldirgan kishining jazosidir. Unday bo‘lsa, faqat Allohga ibodat qiladigan mo‘min kishini o‘ldirgan kishining jazosi haqida nima deyish mumkin? Nabiy ﷺ shunday degan edilar: "Butun dunyoning yo‘q bo‘lib ketishi Alloh uchun bir musulmon kishining o‘ldirilishidan kamroq ahamiyatga ega."6
night" • He ~ also said: "He who observed the fast of Ramadan and then followed it with six (fasts) of Shawwal, it would be as if he fasted perpetually."2 And he ~ also said: "If anyone recites surat: ( Say: He is Allah, the One) , it is as if he had recited one third of the Qur'an."3 However, it is known that the reward for the doer of such acts - as mentioned in the above Hadiths - does not reach the reward of the one resembled. If they are considered equal in reward, then the person who performs 'Isha and Fajr in congregation and stands performing the night prayer in between them would just be tiring himself all night, with no extra reward due. If it is said: "Then where is the resemblance between the one who kills one person and the one who kills a hundred persons"? The resemblance is in many aspects: First, Both of them are disobedient to Allah ~ and His Messenger ~' and are to receive Allah ' s Punishment, and both of them have earned Allah's Anger and Curse, and dwelling eternally in the Hell-Fire. The difference between them is in their punishment in their lowest levels of Hell. Second, they both equally deserve being killed. Third, they are both equally guilty in their willingness to kill unlawfully. Whoever kills a person without any right, simply for causing mischief in the land, can kill anyone just to take their property; therefore he is an enemy to humanity! Fourth, Allah ~ has made the believers, in their mercy and sympathy towards one another, as one body; so when a killer hurts one part of that body, all the other parts of that body are also hurt. So when someone hurts a believer, it is as if he has hurt all the believers. The Prophet ~ said: "No human being is killed unjustly, but a part of the responsibility for that crime is laid up on the first son of Adam (Qabil) who invented the tradition of killing (murdering) on the earth."4 Although, this promise of punishment never came to apply to the first fornicator, the first thief, or the first drunkard. The first polytheist would be rather more deserving of that punishment than the first killer, because he/she would have been the first to set the example of polytheism. It is for this reason that the Prophet ~ saw ' Umar bin Luhay Al-Khuza'i receiving the greatest punishment in the Hell-Fire, because he was the first who changed the Religion of Ibrahim ~,; as Allah ~ said: (and do not be the first to disbelieve therein ) 5 i.e. that people take you as an example - after you - and so their sins of disbelief would rest upon you. The same judgment is for the one who sets a bad practice which people followed. Abdullah bin 'Abbad ~ reported that the Prophet ~ said: "On the Day of Resurrection the slain will bring their slayer with his forelock and his head in his hand, and his own jugular vein meanwhile dripping with blood, and he will say: 'My Lord, he killed me' , till he brings him near the throne." People mentioned repentance to Ibn 'Abbas ~' but he recited the Verse: ( Whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell to abide therein ) 1, and said: this Verse has not been abrogated nor changed, so how could he benefit from any repentance?"2 Nafi' said: "Abdullah bin ' Umar looked at the Ka'bah one day and said: 'How great you are , and how great is your sanctity; but the sanctity of a believer is greater in the Sight of Allah!" Abu Hurayrah 4, reported that the Prophet ;i said: "Abusing a Muslim is Fusuq (i.e., an evil-doing), and killing him is Kufr ( disbelief). " 3 The Prophet :i also said: "Beware! Do not renegade as disbelievers, after me, by striking the necks of one another."4 The Prophet :i said: "Whoever has killed a person who has a treaty with the Muslims, shall not smell the scent of Paradise, though its scent may be perceived from a distance of forty years. " 5 This is the punishment for the one who kills a disbeliever who is under a protection treaty; so what about the punishment for the one who kills a believer who worships none but Allah ~? The Prophet ;i said: "The passing of the whole world would mean less to Allah than the murder of a Muslim man."6
