Re: Can someone please substantiate/confirm
I am trying to say that whether Prophet (SAW) had a shadow or not does not (or should not) impact how we live. However, people make up these issues and fight over them which is pointless.
Did He (PBUH) sweat or if his sweat smelled like a thousand roses? Why should it matter?
Remember that the Christians and Jews had a lot of interactions with people of Arabian peninsula in the early days of Islam. The idea is that Muslims at that time started competing with Christians who were bent upon proving that Jesus (AS) was God. Which would, for Muslims, mean that Muhammad (PBUH) was somehow inferior (God forbid) to Jesus (AS). I think a lot of stories like this were made up to prove Muhammad (PBUH) > Jesus (AS).
The above is my personal reading about the issue and I’m no scholar. Lets say Muhammad (SAW) had (or has) massive super powers and everything was (or is) under his command. Does this information affect how we live or deal with other human beings?
