In his 58 mins leaked video, Zaid Hamid claims that Yusuf Kazab never claimed to be a prophet, all that he claimed was to be a Khalifa – and according to the Holy Quran – every man is a Khalifa. What Zaid Hamid forgets to tell is that Yusuf Kazab didnt claimed to be a Khalifa, but claimed to be a Khalifa e Azam of Prophet Muhammad saaw. As a proof of this claim Yusuf Kazab produced a document in court, which he referred to as Certificate of Khalifa e Azam and claimed that this certificate was directly awarded to him by Prophet Muhammad saaw.
This article is divided into three parts:
- Ismail Quraishi’s (lawyer of AMTKN) discussion on the Certificate of Khalifa e Azam produced by Yusuf Kazab in Court.
- Yusuf Kazab’s own statements that he gave in court on questions asked by Ismail Quraishi regarding the Certificate of Khalifa e Azam that Yusuf produced in court.
- The Discussion and Verdict of the Honorable Judge on the Certificate of Khalifa e Azam produced by Yusuf Kazab in court.
Ismail Quraishi’s Discussion on the Certificate of Khalifa e Azam Produced by Yusuf Kazab in Court
After the court judgement Zaid Hamid wrote an article in Daily DAWN and declared the judgement to be a murder of Justice. Zaid Hamid’s article that appeared in Daily DAWN can be read here. On this, the prosecution party, i.e. AMTKN decided to publish the court judgement in book form so that it becomes a record and anyone could access it and see for himself/herself that Yusuf Kazab was indeed a Kazab and the Court Judgement was not a murder of justice as Zaid Hamid claimed. Ismail Quraishi, the lawyer who fought the case against Yusuf Kazab, wrote a foreword for this book format of the court judgement. The complete foreword could be read in our Article titled The Truth About Yusuf Kazab Blasphemy Case. In his foreword Ismail Quraishi has discussed the Certificate of Khalifa e Azam produced by Yusuf Kazab in court. That discussion is being reproduced below:
He [Yusuf Kazab] has submitted a document which has been exhibited as 111. by the trial court and is also part of this book as Schedule I. About this document he claimed that it was certificate directly soul to him by the Holy Prophet (PBUH) declaring him to be Khalifa-i-Aazam. According to admission in the cross examination by me all the Prophets were appointed as Khalifas i.e. vicegerents of God on earth and the Holy Prophet (PBUH) is Klialila-i-Azam. chief vicegerent, so by virtue of this certificate, now he is Khalifa-i-Azam on earth. He further admitted in the cross examination that neither one of four Caliphs was holding the high office of Khalifa-i-Azam. In an answer to the Question he said this certificate of Khalifa-i-Azam from the Holy Prophet was sent to him by a saint of Karachi, Abdullah Shah Ghazi through the medium of computer on his letter pad. It is interesting to note that the said saint of Karachi had died 300 year ago. In the said certificate which is in English, the convict has been addressed by the Holy Prophet (PBUH) as Khalifa-e-Azam, Hazrat Imam Al-Shcikh Abu A.H. Muhammod Yusuf All. In the said certificate the convict has been declared that his knowledge is all encompassing and his wisdom is supreme. In explanation of this declaration the convict said that he is commentator of Holy Quran. He knows all about Hadees and Fiqh. He is master of Tassawwuf and also knows all the worldly sciences. In order to testify his all encompassing knowledge and wisdom, I cross examined him in regard to his religious knowledge and put questions relating to modern scientific research. I would like to mention here that the convict has stated in the court that he has been receiving all the messages direct from the Holy Prophet (PBUH) either in Arabic or English. I asked him His connotation of Quranic word “Taqwa”, but he was unable to answer. 1 asked him the meaning of “amplitude” and “resurrection”, the words on the top of the certificate of Khalifa-i-Azam, but he miserably failed to tell the simple meanings of these words. He was unable to tell even the names of six authentic books of Hadees (Sihah Sittah), known and respected all over the Muslim world after the Holy Quran. He has no knowledge of a very famous Hadees of Madinatul Ilm in respect of the Holy Prophet (PBUH) and Hazrat Ali (RA) despite his claim of being Al-i-Rasool, descendant of the Holy Prophet (PBUH), whereas he is Bhatti by caste according to his school certificate. His name was Yusuf Ali according to school & college certificates and service record (Schedule II), He added “Muhammad” after retirement with malicious design to doge and defraud people for gelling huge amount and property worth millions of rupees by means of deception in the name of the Holy Prophet (PBUH). These facts have been proved by his own admissions and admitted documents. Kindly see the judgment.
Ismail Quraishi further adds in his foreword that …
With this background, the convict Yusuf Ali followed the footsteps of Mirza Ghulam Ahmed and proved himself by oral and documentary evidence that he is true successor in interest of his predecessor impostor. First he approached to the religious quarter as preacher of Islam, then as Mard-e-Kamil, thereafter as Imam-al-Waqt i.e. Mehdi, the next step after Mehdi was declaring himself as Khalifa-i-Azam, We have already given details of soli upgrading. He then claimed himself to be the Holy Prophet (PBUH) before the followers in the basement named as Ghar-i-Hira. Like Ghulam Ahmed Mirza he was also not satisfied with this so called claim therefore finally in order to show himself greater than the last Prophet of Allah (PBUH) he declared that 1400 years back the Holy Prophet was on duty, but in the present times he has attained the perfection and finality of the prophethood by beauty.

accused (Recalled on oath)
XXXXX By learned counsel for the complainant.
It is correct that the document Exh.DL is the Certificate relating to the spiritual aspect awarded to me by the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) as the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) awards Spiritual Certificate of this nature. It is correct that in the document Exh.DL, the sentence ‘Khalif-e-Azam Hazoor Syed-e-Na-Mohammad (Peace Be Upon Him) Ka-Khalif-e-Azam Hazrat Imam (Al Sheikh) Abu AH-Mohammad Yousaf Ali is the ‘Laqab’ awarded to me by the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him). Volunteers that in accordance with Surat Hajj Verse No. 78, every Muslim after all efforts should prove himself as ‘Khalifa’ of Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) subject to His confirmation. It is correct that the portion “M” to “M” is the part and parcel of document Exh.DL. This ‘Shahadat’ has been awarded to us by Hazrat Abdullah Shah Ghazi and this Shahadat has also been given by the other Aulia-e-Karam. All Aula-e-Karam are alive and this Shahadat has been awarded by them. I cannot say that this Shahadat has been given by the ‘Aula-e-Karam at the instance of our Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) or not. The Portion “N’ to “N as given in document Exh.DL, is Alhamdulillah correct and it is for me. I know ‘English’, ‘Urdu’, ‘Punjabi’, little ‘Arabic’, little ‘Persian’ and the language of ‘love’. The language of love means the love and affection if awarded to any body by the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him). It is correct that I am expert in Philosophy, Psychology, Modern Science or in any other subject nor I have learnt these subjects through Books except that I have been tutored by the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) and the knowledge like mirror, as referred in page No. 175 of the Book titled ‘Khutbat-e-Nabuwwat (Exh.D/II) compiled by Maulana Mohammad Ismail Shujaabadi, which I mean as under:-
‘Ana-Madinatul-Ilam-Wa-Ali-Babuha, announced by the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) is the part of Hadith and it is correct. I have not studied ‘Hi.kmat-ul-Ishraq’ in Philosophy. Volunteers that there is no knowledge of the mirror and that the mirror has only to reflect. It is correct that I had been staying in Europe. I have not heard the name of Averor. The meaning of supreme wisdom, as used in document Exh.DL is that I am nothing. I have not read the Book as ‘Kitabul’ Tawaseen’. It may be correct that just by chance I have referred the said Book in my statement before this court. I do not know Dr. Mycinu. I do not know Hussain-ibne-Mansoor’ exactly but I have heard about him. I have heard that Hussain-Ibne-Mansoor is also known as ‘Hallaj. It is incorrect that he was hanged. Volunteers that his body was cut into pieces and he was killed in the way. I have not dictated for myself as ‘Ahl-e-Bayat’ but I wish so Volunteers that eveyr ‘Muttaqi’ is ‘Ahl-e-Rasool (Peace Be Upon Him). Taqva’ is defined in Surat Baqra Verses No. 3 and 4′. The meaning of ‘Mutaqqi’ is also given of Verses of Surat Baqra, referred by me. There is difference in between ‘Ahle-Rasool (Peace Be Upon Him) and Ahle-e-Bayat-e-Rasool (Peace Be Upon Him). The children of the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) are ‘Aal-e-Mohammad (Peace Be Upon Him) while ‘Aal-e-Rasool (Peace Be Upon Him) means all ‘Mutaqqi’ ctatpH that the Sahaba people. It is means the companion, members can be called as ‘Ahle-e-Bayat. Volunteers that ‘Ahl-e-Bayat Rasool (Peace Be Upon Him) is different terminology and simple ‘Ahl-e-Bayat’ is different. It is correct that my name by birth was ‘Mohammad’ but later on my parents got written the name as ‘Yousaf Ali, in the Admission Form of the School and also in the College. My name as ‘Yousaf Ali Nadeem’ was written in the 9th Class and since it was difficult to have changed the name, therefore, my name as ‘Yousaf AH Nadeem’ was written upto my service record. As soon as I left the service, I got my name corrected as ‘Mohammad Yousaf Ali’. It is correct that my name as ‘Yousaf Ali Nadeem’ used to be written in the College.
The word ‘Nadeem’ was added in my name in 9th Class. My name as ‘Yousaf Ali Nadeem’ has been written in the Matriculation Certificate and simply ‘Yousaf Ali’ was written in the Primary-Certificate. No one can as being the person write ‘Sallaho Alhe-Wassalam’ over the name Mohammad if Mohammad is part of the name of any person. It is correct that in the documents Exh.DL and DM I have written my name as ‘Mohammad Yousaf Ali’.
At this statge, there is a dispute that as to whether any fluid has been used in the document Exh.DL and DM over the name of ‘Mohammad’ to override ‘Sallaho Alhe-Wassalam’ the abbreviation written on the name of ‘Mohammad’, on which the learned defence counsel has shown the original documents in their custody but by the mirror (Magnified Glass) if seen carefully there appears the use of fluid but this dispute shall be resolved later on at the stage of arguments and whatsoever the original documents are, those shall remain with the accused as same have not been produced on the last date.
Upon a request of the learned defense counsel this fact is also brought on record that on the last date the originals of Exh.DL and DM were returned to the learned defence counsel.
(The remaining statement of the accused shall be recorded on the next date).

Hazrat Abdullah Shah Ghazi informed me about the contents of the Certificate Exh.DL indirectly. It was my spiritual experience and I was on receiving end. I received Certificate Exh.DL directly from the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) but it was verified indirectly by the ‘Aolia-e-Karam’ through Hazrat Abdullah Shah Ghazi.

Definitely the verification (tasdeeq) of Hazrat Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jillani, Imam-e-Aolia would be included in the verification as explained by me. Since I was informed I that its verification is from all Aolia, therefore, the | verification by Hazrat Junaid Bughdadi, Syed-e-Taifa, is also included therein. I am not aware of all Sufic-ordes. ‘ Volunteers that since I had received training directly from the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him), therefore, I have no contact with the ‘Aolia-e-Karam.

Volunteers that the Khilafat bestowed to Hazrat Adam Alah-e-Salam bestowed to the Prophets upto Hazrat Issa Alah-e-Salam was Khilafat of Hazoor Mohammad Nabiul Ummi (Peace Be Upon Him). After
the ‘Wisaal’ of the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) the Khilafat went to ‘Khulfa-e-Rashideen’ and first of all to Hazrat Abubakar Siddique Razi Allah Tala Anho. I do not know the details of Khilafat bestowed to Hazrat Abubakar Siddique Razi Allah Tala Anho.

‘Alif, Laam and Meem’ are abbreviative words of Noble Holy Quran. There are fourteen abbreviative words in the Holy Quran. I cannot say without reference that the furteen abbreviations are secret in between Allah Almighty and the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him). I do not know if Hazrat Ibn-e-Abbas Razi Allah Tala Ano’ had narrated the meanings of these abbreviations. Volunteers that first of all Holy Quran and Ahle-Bayat are relevant for me to follow but I have much regard and respect of those who follow the Holy Quran and Sunnah. It is correct that in accordance with the Hadith, the Ho’y Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) also said that I left two things, one is Holy Quran and the other is ‘Sunnah’. The message recorded on document Exh.DL is my letter-pad. The word ‘Mohammad’ (Peace Be Upon Him) on the one upper side of document Exh.DL is not seal of the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) but it is the ‘Isme-Mubarik’ (Holy Name) of Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him).
Note: “The above mentioned reply has been given by the accused after some interference by his counsel and they are advised to remain silent while trr; answer is being given by the accused himself who is competent.” …
XXXXX By learned counsel for the complainant.
It is correct that in pages Exh.13, 14, 15, 16 and 17, as mentioned above, it is not mentioned that the Arabic language is not essential to be known by ‘Aulia-e-Karam’. It is my personal affair, so I cannot tell that as to whether I had been receiving the spiritual messages from Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) either in Arabic or in English. It is also my personal affair that as to in which language the ‘Aulia-e-Karam’ conveyed their messages to me, therefore, I cannot tell the language.
Even, I cannot tell the detail of the verification portion ‘M’ to ‘M’ of Exh.DL so far the language is concerned. Similarly, I cannot tell the language in which the message portion “N” to “N” in Exh.DL was received by me. I cannot say that I know English better than other languages. It is correct that the message recorded in the upper portion of document Exh.DL portion “K” to “K” is mine and also of my Committee and I am responsible for it. It is correct that I know the meaning of the word ‘Amplitude’ used in portion “K” to “K” of document Exh.DL. I know the meaning of the word ‘Amplitude’ as ‘Amplitude’. I know the meaning of the word ‘Resurrect’ used in portion “K” to “K” as ‘Resurrect’ in English. I do now know the meaning of ‘Resurrect’ in this way that of raising from the dead and I cannot deny the dictionary meaning. Volunteers that the meaning of this word ‘Resurrect’ in my mind is Verse No. 17 of Surat Yaseen. It is incorrect that neither I know English nor Urdu nor Arabic nor Punjabi. Exh.DL is a manufactured document. It is incorrect to suggest that I manufactured Exh.DL just to grab money from the innocent persons and also from those who have very little knowledge of the religion. It is incorrect to suggest that under the grab of this document Exh.DL. I have extorted millions of rupees from the innocent persons. It is incorrect to suggest that I have extorted money from Mohammad Ali Abubakar, Brig. Dr. Mohammad Aslam, Rana Mohammad Akram, Sajid Munir Dar and others. I never posed to be ‘Imam’ in the past. It is incorrect that I have posed to be ‘Imam-e-Waqt The word ‘Imam’ written in document Exh.DL is not from any side but this word has been bestowed by the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him). I myself did not declared myself ‘Khalif-e-Azam’. …
… Volunteers that when I delivered the speech in Exh.DN, there was no mention of the prosecution witnesses. I have been made ‘Director General’ of the ‘World Assembly’. I cannot tell the number of Members of this ‘World Assembly’. I cannot tell the details of the Board of the Directors. The manifesto of the World Assembly is given in the document Exh.DN. Volunteers that the World Assembly is the modern name of ‘Silsil-e-Haqeeqat-e-Mohammadia’. It is incorrect that through this World Assembly I am trying to enforce ‘Khalifat-e-Uzma’. Khilafat is alive. It is correct that I wish renaissance of ‘Khalifat-Ala-Minhaj-ul-Nabua (Aman-e-Alam)’. Minhaj-ul-Nabua means to follow the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) in letter and spirit. The Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) established Khilafat on His Minhaj on those days and even now the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) shall establish the same ‘Khailafat’ while I am nothing. It is correct that I have received the ‘Laqab’ of ‘Khalif-e-Azam’. It is correct that ‘Khilafat-e-Rashida’ was also on’Minhajul-Nabua’….

40. About document Exh.DL, which reflects to have ‘Khilafat-e-Uzma’ of Holy.Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) he stated that this document is a Certificate relating to the spiritual aspect awarded to him by the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) as the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) awards Spiritual Certificate of this nature. He admitted that in document Exh.DL, the sentence ‘Khalif-e-Azam Hazoor Syed-e-Na>Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) Ka-Khalif-e-Azam Hazrat Imam (Al-Sheikh) Abu A.H. Muhammad Yousaf Ali) is awarded to him by the Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him). Volunteered that in accordance with Surat ‘Haj’ Verse No. 78 every Muslim after all efforts should prove himself as ‘Khalifa’ of Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) subject to His (Peace Be Upon Him) confirmation, added that portion ‘M’ to ‘M’ is the part and parcel of Exh.DL and this ‘Shahadat’ has been awarded to him by Hazrat Abdullah Shah Ghazi and this ‘Shahadat’ has also been given by other ‘Olia-e-Karam, all ‘Olia-e-Karam’ are alive and this ‘Shahadat’ has been awarded by them. Further added that he cannot say that this ‘Shahadat’ has been given by ‘Olia-e-Karam’ at the instance of Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) or not. The portion ‘N’ to ‘N’ is ‘Alhamdulillah’ correct and it is for him; that he knows ‘English’, ‘Urdu’, ‘Punjabi’ and little Arabic and little persian and the language of love. He further stated in cross-examination that he came to know through ‘Hazrat Abdullah Shah Ghazi’ that all ‘Olia-e-Karam have confirmed this Certificate Exh.DL. He stated that he received this Certificate directly from Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) but it was verified indirectly by the ‘Olia-e-Karam’ from ‘Abdullah Shah Ghazi’. Volunteered that this Certificate was spiritual but he cannot tell its details that as to whether he received document Exh.DL, either typed or un-typed and admitted that the document Exh.DL is computerised and typed document and he got this document Exh.DL computersied / typed from Islamabad. He stated that he cannot tell that as to whether he had been receiving the spiritual messages from Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) either in Arabic or in English because it is personal affair that as to in which language ‘Olia-e-Karam’ conveyed their message to him, therefore, he cannot tell the language, even he cannot tell the detail of verification portion ‘M’ to ‘M’ and Exh.DL so far the language is concerned, even he cannot tell the language in which the message portion ‘N’ to ‘N’ Exh.DL was received by him, however, he admitted that the message recorded in the upper portion ‘K’ to ‘K’ of Exh.DL is his and also of his Committee and he was responsible for it and when he was asked about the meaning of word ‘Amplitude’, he stated that the meaning of the word ‘Amplitude’ is ‘Amplitude and about the word ‘Resurrect’, he stated that it is as ‘Resurrect’ in English, however, he denied this suggestion’ that he has manufactured this document to grab money from the people. Now the question worth consideration is that as to what is this document. Leaving aside its admissibility for the reason that this document has been presented by him, so believing it to be admissible the question in my mind is that in view of his above statement, what is the corroborative piece of evidence about this document and what is the sanctity of this document. There is nothing on the record to believe that this document is correct. It is quite astonishing that ‘fluid’ has been used on the word ‘Suaad’ at many places on the name of.-A.H. Muhammad Yousaf Ali’ and if this document is seen by magnified glass, it would look that on every step where ‘Suaad’ has been used for the name of ‘Muhammad Yousaf Ali’, it has been covered by ‘fluid’. So it is quite astonishing that the message of Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) was received by him with the fluid of modern day. Infact this document is ridiculous towards Islam and the spirit of Surat Tauba Verses 65 And 66 of Holy Quran, which in English are as under:-
Verse No. 65
“If you ask them (about this) they declare ‘we were only talkly idly and joking’ say was it at Allah and His Ayat and His Messenger that you were mocking?”
Verse No. 66
“Make no excuse; you disbelieved after you had believed. If We pardon some of your, We will punish others amongst you because they were Mujrimun (disbelievers/sinners/criminals)”.
41. After analyzing this document, I am forced to say that there is no need to examine the prosecution evidence in presence of this original document, which itself is sufficient to declare Yousaf, accused, as ‘KAFIR’ AND ‘MURTAD’. Now thereafter I shall not use the words| ‘Muhammad’ and ‘AH’ alongwith his name in the judgment but only Yousaf Kazzab’.
Final Remarks
Some of you might still be confused that how come claiming to be a Khalifa e Azam is a claim of Prophethood. So I am summarizing the issues, with the claim of Khalifa e Azam.
Yusuf Kazab stated: in cross examination by Ismail Quraishi that:
According to admission in the cross examination by me all the Prophets were appointed as Khalifas i.e. vicegerents of God on earth and the Holy Prophet (PBUH) is Khalifa-i-Azam. chief vicegerent, so by virtue of this certificate, now he is Khalifa-i-Azam on earth. He further admitted in the cross examination that neither one of four Caliphs was holding the high office of Khalifa-i-Azam.
Issue: So basically what Yusuf was saying was that there was only one Khalifa e Azam and it was Prophet Muhammad saaw and now he is Khalifa e Azam, because Prophet Muhammad saaw has himself given him this certificate.
He was stating that:
- He has the same status as that of Prophet Muhammad saaw as both are Khalifa e Azam – i.e. hold the same rank.
- He is higher in rank to all other Prophets AS, because all other Prophets AS were just Khalifa and he is Khalifa e Azam. A rank higher then Prophets AS can only be of a Prophet of higher stature.
- He is higher in rank to Khulafa e Rashideen and all other Sahaba RA. Only Ambiya AS are higher in rank to the Sahaba RA.
Yusuf Kazab stated: that the Certificate was awarded to him directly by the Holy Prophet saaw and that the Holy Prophet saaw awards certificates of such nature.
Issue: This is a direct lie on the character and Zaat of Prophet saaw.
Yusuf Kazab stated: that according to the certificate issued to him by Holy Prophet saaw his knowledge is all encompassing and his wisdom is supreme.
Issue: Now we as muslims believe that Only the knowledge of Allah is all encompassing and only Allah’s wisdom is supreme. This claim of Yusuf Kazab is actually a claim of being Allah. If you go through Yusuf’s Bait e Raza speech you will find out that he says that Allah and Muhammad are one, or simply watch this video.
Further more in cross examination it was found out that Yusuf Kazab didnt know the names of the books of Sihah e Sitta. He didnt know what DNA stands for. According to Yusuf Kazab DNA is the name of a test as a consequence of which in case of refusal there can be a comparison of blood as it happened in the matter of Sita White and Imran Khan.
Additionally, If you read the Certificate of Khalifa e Azam again, you would realize that it has spelling mistakes. In the sentence “for only he who has become resurrected in ‘THE TRUTH’ ‘ALL HAQ’ can resurrect and revive the world arround him” around is spelled as arround. Similarly in the sentence “He considers the one who knows and does not apply his knowledge is no better than a donky carrying heavy load of books” donkey is spelled as donky.
Now regarding Yusuf Kazab’s all encompassing knowledge. Yusuf stated that he does not know Arabic and he does not know if Arabic is the language of Heaven.
Yusuf Kazab failed to answer the question that in which language did the Holy Prophet saaw gave him the certificate, and how did he and Prophet Muhammad saaw communicated since Prophet Muhammad saaw speaked Arabic and he does not know Arabic.
Yusuf Kazab was claiming to be Khalifa e Azam, after Khalifa e Azam Prophet Muhammad saaw. Khalifa e Azam here is just another word for Prophethood. A wine is a wine irrespective of the packaging.
Muhammad vs Muhemmed
Lastly, do see how Yusuf Kazab writes his name in the certificate. Its written as Muhemmed Yusuf Ali.
Yusuf Kazab, Zaid Hamid and all other Kazab followers write the name of our Holy Prophet saaw as Muhammad. But when they have to write the name of Yusuf Kazab, they use the spellings Muhemmed. Whenever they use Muhemmed, they are actually referring to Muhemmed Yusuf Ali and not to our Holy Prophet Muhammad saaw.
