"The shadow of the Holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) could not be seen in the brightness of the sun, nor in moonlight."<br /> <br /> ★ Seyedena Abdullah Ibn Mubarak and Haafiz Ibn Jouzi narrate from Hazrat Abdullah Ibn Abbas (radiyallahu ta'ala anhu): "The Holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) did not possess a shadow, neither in the brightness of the sun, nor in the brightness of a light, but His brightness used to overpower the brightness of the sun and the brightness of a light."<br /> <br /> <br /> ★ Allama Husain Ibn Muhamed Dayaar Bakri (radiyallahu ta'ala anhu) states: "The Holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) shadow should not appear on the earth neither was it seen in the sunshine nor in the moonlight."<br /> <br /> ★ Allama Sulayman Jamal (radiyallahu ta'ala anhu) states: "The Holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) shadow should not appear in sunshine nor in the moonlight."<br /> <br /> ★ Imaam Rabbani Mujaddid Alif Saani (radiyallahu ta'ala anhu) states: "The Holy Prophet (Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) did not posses a shadow. The reason being that in the Aalme Shahaadat everything's shadow is much more lighter than that material, and it is the greatness of the Holy Prophet(Sallal Laahu Alaihi Wasallam) that nothing is lighter than him so how can he have a shadow."<br /> <br /> <br /> ★ Imam ibn Hajar Makki al-Haytami (radiyallahu ta'ala anhu)<br /> <br /> Imam Haytami writes: "He became light to the extent that if he walked in sunlight or moonlight he did not have a shadow. The reason is that shadows pertain only to dense bodies whereas he has been purified by Allah from all the bodily attributes of denseness and he has turned him into light unadulterated and pure, and entirely devoid of shadow." (Sharh Qaseedah Hamziyyah, Afdalul Qurra)<br /> <br /> ★ Imam Burhanuddin al-Halabi (radiyallahu ta'ala anhu)<br /> <br /> Imam Halabi writes:"If he walked in sunlight or in moonlight he had no shadow because he was light." (Seerat-ul-Halbiyah)<br /> <br /> ★ Imam Rabbani Mujaddid-e-Alfi Thaani (radiyallahu ta'ala anhu)<br /> <br /> Imam Rabbani writes: "Indeed the Prophet (sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam) did not have a shadow. This is because in this world, the shadow of a being is always more fine than the actual being itself and in this universe, there is nothing more fine than the Prophet (sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam), hence, how could it be possible that he possessed a shadow"? (Maktubaat Shareef, Vol.3, p.187, Lucknow)<br /> <br /> ★ Shah Abdul `Azeez Muhaddith-e-Dehlwi (radiyallahu ta'ala anhu)<br /> <br /> Shah Abdul `Azeez writes concerning the Shadowless Prophet (sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam):<br /> <br /> "His (sallallahu 'alaihi wasallam) shadow did not fall upon the Earth". (Tafseer-e-`Azeezi)<br /> <br /> ★ Imam al-Zurqani also states that Imams Ibn al-Jawzi and Abd Allah ibn al-Mubarak have reported on the authority of Sayyiduna Abd Allah ibn Abbas (Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) did not have a shadow.
