Question
My children are attending a school in Pakistan. At this school a new Qur‟aan translation is being taught. It is called „Muttafaqah Tarjumah Qur‟aan‟ (Unanimous Qur‟aan Translation). It is so termed because it is a compromise between the Ahlus Sunnah and the Shiah. The Translation references Shiah theological texts. Is such a translation/commentary permissible?
Answer
The Muttafaqah Tarjumah Qur'aan which has been introduced in schools is another cog in the interfaith plot to destroy Islam. There can never be common ground between Muslims and the Shiah kuffaar who deny the authenticity of the Qur‟aan Majeed and vilify the Sahaabah (Radhiyallahu anhum). Minus the Qur‟aan and the Sahaabah there can be no Islam. The Qur‟aan and the Sahaabah are the two most vital and important fundamentals of Islam.
The attempt to amalgamate the Shiah version of the Qur‟aan with the Qur‟aan Majeed which has been transmitted down the centuries from the era of the Sahaabah, is absolutely corrupt, devious and baatil. An amalgamated version, that is a hybrid one between Muslims and Shiahs, is absolutely impossible. The slightest variation interpolated into the Qur‟aan to accommodate any meaning or tafseer of the Shiahs is kufr and drastically detracts from the authenticity of the Qur‟aan Shareef. Thus, the so-called „muttafaqah' version is baatil and haraam.
It is never permissible for a Muslim school to teach this baatil version which has been prepared by conspirators. It is haraam for parents to send their children to such a school which teaches this baatil version.
It is not possible and not permissible to have an amalgamated form of a Qur‟aan which accommodates the beliefs of Muslims and Shiahs. The muttafaqah version is a cunning attempt to compromise the Aqaaid and A‟maal of Muslims. It is a pernicious shaitaani ploy to destroy Islam.
When the Mushrikeen of Makkah had attempted to strike a compromise with Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) on the issue of Tauheed, it was vigorously rejected. Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) rejecting the interfaith proposal of the Mushrikeen said: "If you place the sun in my right hand and the moon in my left hand, I shall not desist from proclaiming Deen."
as faajir (immoral person). There is no valid difference of opinion on this issue.
