thesis rjm

.

The author maintains that the identity and civilisation of nations is measured,

apart from other major achievements, by how proud the people are of their history

and by how well they care about their environment. This care extends to the

importance given to their physical heritage, the preservation of what the former

populations built, antiquities, books, folklore, monuments, stately homes, gardens,

and protected forests. Although it is impossible to return Makkah to its former

glory now that so many of its religious and historic monuments are gone, the

remaining sites deserve a better fate. While expressing regret in several areas for

past steps taken that resulted in terrible consequences in regards to changing the

identity, the heart and harmony, even dignity of Makkah, the author is still

optimistic that the situation can and must be corrected. Islam, as a complete set of

teachings for the salvation of mankind, specifically advocates preservation. In most

of the interviews, the author felt that there is concern. This leads to hope because it

indicates recognition ofthe problem. And that is the first step in any long journey.


The main objective of this thesis is to raise the awareness of the authorities

concerning the importance of conserving the history of Makkah which represents

the history of Islam. If the authorities are convinced of the principle, it will

encourage all Makkah residents and those who are interested in the history of

Makkah and keep records for the historical sites to co-operate with the authorities.


Not only historical sites and buildings should be respected, but

also the character of the old city in order to restore the lost identity of Islam's most

important city.






PUT IN THE STRUCTURE

the remaining traces of these buildings and sites. Individual

Makkah people confirmed that the foundations and walls of some historical sites

are buried underground under new structures.

Those traces that are buried under the large open courtyards


PUT IN THE PROPHET'S PBUH OTHER HOMES

All historical

sites and buildings in Makkah are important because they address and represent the

era of the Prophet of Islam when he was born, lived, married, spread the teachings

of Islam for more than fifty years in Makkah before he migrated to Madinah. Any

traces that are related to that history, are worthy of investigation and recording.


2. The Beloved Prophet (Salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “Follow the way of the largest group of Muslims! For, he who deviates from this group will be thrown into Hell!” [Sunnan Ibn Majah, Hadith # 3950]


The Largest group with in Ahlu Sunna Wal Jamah is Hanafi and Shafi, then Maliki Hanbali Muslims are less than 5%, It is a Miracle of Allah!. That even by claiming we are hanbalis, Wahhabis still can't prove they are the majority Muslims!!!


3. The Beloved Prophet Salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “Allah will never allow my Ummah to unite upon misguidance and incorrect beliefs. Allah’s mercy, blessings and protection are with the largest group of Muslims. And he who deviates from this largest group of Muslims will be thrown into Hell.” Sunan Al Tirmizi Vol.2 Pg.39)


4. The Beloved Prophet (Salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “He who deviates from the largest group of Muslims, even as much as a hand span, has himself cut off his connection with Islam”. Abu Dawud) 


5. Allah will never let my Ummah agree upon misguidance, and the hand of Allah is over the group (Jama'ah), so follow the great mass of believers (Sawad ul- 'Azam), and whoever dissents from them departs to hell(al-Tirmidhi (4/2167) a narration authenticated and reported by al-Hakim (1/116), and al-Dhahabi agreed with him, Scholars explained that Sawad al Azam here refers to great Ulama
