Astounding Admissions
Let us examine the particular admissions of some of the most ancient and foremost "Imams" ('Canonical' authorities) who recited History, Hadith, laid down Fiqh (Islamic Justice) and did Tafseer ( explanation) of the Qur’an.
IMAM RAZI'S HORRIBLE Concession
Utmost Muslims have heard of one of the most ancient and notorious Tafseer-e-Kabeer (The Great Exposition of the Qur’an) by Imam Fakhruddin Razi. This tafseer is one of the covers being followed by our Mullahs till this day. After writing his 300 volumes, the great and authoritative Imam confesses"All my intellectual and apparently logical statements in the explanation of the Qur’an turned out to be lame. All the explanations of the Qur’an done by the so- called Imams (Tabari, Zamakhshari, Ibne Kathir, Bukhari, Muslim etc) are deceived and deceiving. All of us were the tools of Satan. Our souls were defiled by our physical solicitations. Our sweats of this world
pledge to bring us nothing but torture and doom."

(Hadith-Ul-Qur’an by Allama Inayatullah Khan Al-Mashriqi, 1954 edition p190)
.IMAM TABARI'S STRANGE Concession
“ I'm writing this book as I hear from thenarrators.However, I shouldn't be criticized or held responsible, If anything sounds absurd. The responsibility of all crimes or blunders rests exactly on the shoulders of those who have recited these stories to me.” So, Tabari wrote nothing but report.
Tabari's Tareekhil Umam Wal Mulook (The History of Nations and Lords) popularly called" Mama of All Histories"is the first ever" History of Islam" written by'Imam'Tabari (839-923 CE) at the junction of the third and fourth century AH. He failed in 310 AH, 3 centuries after the Prophet (S). What were his sources? Not a scrap of paper. By collecting his 13 volume History and his 30 volume Exposition of the Qur’an under royal patronage, he came the Super Imam. The after chroniclers until this day have persisted in following the trails of the Super Imam.
IMAM AHMAD BIN HANBAL'S Comeuppance
Allama Shibli Nomani, on runner 27 of his Seeratun Nabi has given a astounding quotation of Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal (780-855 CE,d. 241 AH),"Three kinds of books are absolutely unsupported, Maghazi, Malahem and Tafseer.” (The exalted Prophet's Battles, Dreams and Prognostics, and Expositions of the Qur’an).
IBN KHALDOON'S THRASHING The Muslim chroniclers have made a mockery of history by filling it with fabrications and senseless falsehoods. (Muqaddama)
SHAH ABDUL AZIZ'S CRITIQUE Six runners of Ibn Khaldoon's History have been designedly removed since the foremost times. These runners had questioned the most critical juncture of Islamic history i.e. the Emirate of Yazeed and the fabrication of Karbala. ( Indeed the ultramodern editions admit in the side- notes that those runners have been mysteriously missing from the ancient original book. Khilaafat-e-Mu'awiya-o-Yazeed, Mahmood Ahmed Abbasi)
.SHAH WALIULLAH'S CHASTISEMENT Imam Jalaluddin Sayyuti's Tarikh-ul-Khulafa is the high illustration of how our Chroniclers, Muhaddithin and Mufassirin, each has played like Haatib-il-Lail .
IMAM RAGHIB'S Kick Tabari, Waqidi, Mas'oodi, Sayyuti pasted any reports they got hands on. Also, Abu Mukhnif, Lut bin Yahya and Muhammad bin Saaeb Kalbi (in whose names the civil wars within Islam during the times of Hazraat Ali,Mu'awiya and Yazeed are reported) noway was. Their names have been cooked and narratives in their names have all been constructed by one man, the Zoroastrian"Imam"Tabari bin Rustam.
"The True History of Early Islam"by Shabbir Ahmed has been collected by precisely sifting through scores of ancient books. The author's Criterion of the Right and Wrong has been what it must be and that's the Authentic Qur’an. Hence, I've accepted only those accounts of History and Hadith that are in harmony with this Noble and Unassailable Criterion, the Book of Allah. Thanks to my reputed compendiums around the world, I've had the advantage of having access to multitudinous hard to find or concealed books.
MY Concession
Like all other humble workshop of mine, this book is grounded on exploration by a life-long, fallible pupil, Shabbir Ahmed. It has taken important time and labor as the sapient compendiums and pens can tell. While the author assures the anthology of his intellectual honesty, he's always liable to make miscalculations and systems no claims whatsoever. The anthology may not agree with any part (s) of this book or indeed in its wholeness. The strength of this work may indeed dwell in the fact that it leaves plenitude of room for the anthology's own exploration, explanation and judgment to accept or dismiss Review from any diggings will always be welcome and appreciated, and any crimes will be corrected in the coming edition with sincere gratefulness.
