What is an insult to Nabi salallahu alayhi wa sallam?
We all know that swearing at or abusing or debasing or mocking Sayyidina Rasulullahi salallahu alayhi wa sallam is an insult and cause of loss and sorrow in this life and the hereafter but is that where it ends?
Personally I dont believe so. I was always taught that love for Sayyidina Rasulullahi salallahu alayhi wa sallam is not proved by making utterances by the tongue but rather by actions - a case of actions speak louder than words.
I was taught that observing the sunnah, loving the Sahaabah Karaam, hating those who hate them, loving and guarding the masaajid of ALLAH and honouring the Righteous Ulama are all ways of inculcating love for the Holy Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam and are infact signs of holding love for Him salallahu alayhi wa sallam.
But on the same token if such acts are expressive of love and admiration - I have heard from certain ulama that our rejection of the sunnah and the Prophetic way is a big insult on our Nabi salallahu alayhi wa sallam. That Prophet salallahu alayhi wa sallam who spent nights standing in qiyaam and wept for His Ummah, that Nabi salallahu alayhi wa sallam who tolerated swollen feet and hunger and privations for the truth and for the guidance of the people is today insulted by the very same people who claim to follow Him salallahu alayhi wa sallam.
Isn't it an insult to leave His sunnah and adopt the way of aliens? I felt so ashamed to give salaam at Rawdhah Mubarak and what shocked me more was how some people would turn up to give salaam with shoes in their hands, how some would walk off with a mobile ringing but perhaps most disturbing was how so many turned up to give salaam with clean shaven face or with goatees etc.
I dont know - but that doesnt sit right with me.
I was taught that when going one should try and emulate Nabi salallahu alayhi wa sallam as much as possible - hence I as a habit dressed in sunnah libaas, applied itr, applied surma, held a miswaak, wore an imaamah etc because going to present oneself in the court of the Nabi salallahu alayhi wa sallam is no light matter.
How can a people complain of non-muslims insulting at our Nabi salallahu alayhi wa sallam wen we ourselves mock his sunnah either by laffing at ladies in niqaab as ninjas, or brothers with sunnah beards as taliban/osama? How can we be saved if we ourselves oppose His noble way at every turn?

This is pretty much evidence of what admin has said above, the following are Ahadith:
1 - Hazrat Abu Hurraira (RA) reports that the Holy Prophet ﷺ said: “When anyone sends salutations on me, Allah Almighty returns my soul (also turns my attention towards that person) and I reply to his salutations.”
Abu Dawud, as-Sunan, volume 2 page 218, Hadith no: 2041
Ahmad bin Hanbal, Musnad, vol 2 pg 527, Hadith no: 10827
2 - Hazrat Abu Darda (RA) reports that the Holy Prophet ﷺ said: "Send as much blessings on me as you can on Friday. It is the day of witnessing. Angels visit my grave on that very day. Whosoever sends blessings on me on this day by the time they finish sending them, they are presented to me.’ Abu Darda (RA) asked: ‘What about after you pass away?’ The Holy Prophet ﷺ said: "The body of the Messengers has been made forbidden for the earth. So Allah’s Messengers always stay alive and receive livelihood from Allah Almighty.’
Ibne Majah, as-Sunan, vol 1 page 524, Hadith no: 1637

Daves not asking abt our prayers and salutations being presented to Nabi salallahu alayhi wa sallam; he is asking about our deeds being presented. 🙂

why don't you answer his question then, since you're the one who quoted the info he's asking about...

[quote="Med"]I personally cant tolerate when people mock the sunnah. The other day at my cousins house one of my elders asked what Im going to wear at my wedding. I said I wanna wear a white thobe and white imaamah. He went quite for a bit then went off talking abt some stuff. The relevant points.
...
How dare someone say that thobe looks bad in pakistan?
I dont knw what others think but the style and fashion and preference of our Master salallahu alayhi wa sallam is the most perfect and the most beautiful in all countries and in all ages.[/quote]
strictly speaking, the thobe of today isn't exactly a sunnah. the Prophet (s.a.w) wore what i think is commonly known among desis as a 'lungi', along with a loose top or robe (usually white). the amaamah is most definitely a sunnah though.
[quote="Med"]The ulama have made quite clear that the style of Rasullahi salallahu alayhi wa sallam's clothing was not the same as the mushrikeen arabs.
Significant differences included the practice of isbaal, [b]the donning of a kufi[/b], the length and presence of tails on the turban etc.[/quote]i know we've had this discussion before, but i'd just like to point out again that this is not an emphasised sunnah - there are not strong ahadith to back it (as compared to the wearing of the amaamah).

I do not have reference to or know the hadeeth. I have faith in what Hadrat Mawlana has written - if by some chance I come across the hadeeth then will put it up inshaALLAH.

The example is thus - wearing of a black thobe can be deemed sunnah because its a thobe, wearing of a white thobe can be deemed a sunnah but one of greater ranking because it has two qualities similar to the sunnah etc. So yes the clothing today we cannot say is in exactly the same style as Nabi salallahu alayhi wa sallam but we should get as close as possible. Its like one Mawlana Khalid Mahmood Sawmro from pakistan said that if a person puts on a nice smelling thing with intention of sunnah being fulfilled then although the perfume itself isnt a sunnah one - the reward will inshaallah still be attained.
We have discussed regarding the topi before. We agree to differ. According to you its not emphasised sunnah, according to our ulama it is.

Can somebody explain this? Am I to understand this literally... what is this referring to? Something in hadith?[/quote]
I will need to dig it up a little to confirm wether it really is hadith... I think its hadith.
Basically you have 'angels' jotting down what you do. on the evening of those days, the people's 'jotters' are resented in some form, saying that is what his ﷺ 'ummah' is getting upto.[/quote]
