Harsh By Nature

The opponents of Imam Ahmed Raza (alaihir rahmah) unleash a charge against him that he

was harsh by nature. Imam Ahmed Raza (alaihir rahmah) was not harsh by nature. Rather

the objection is harsh by nature. He was a great poet and a poet usually does not happen to

be harsh by nature. More so, how would he beg excuse from the palanquin-bearer, who was

a Sayyid if he were harsh by nature. How would he beg excuse from Sayyid Saheb whom he

requested not to intervene in his home affairs, if he were harsh by nature. How would he

refrain from declaring Maulvi Ismail Dehlawi Kaafir, if he were harsh by nature.

He was very very kind. He was harsh only for those who were back-friends of Islam. Actually,

he was a person strict not harsh. Friends of Islam always found the great Imam at their

disposal. But fiends of Islam could not be his buttonhole. The opponents of Imam Ahmed

Raza (alaihir rahmah) should not be harsh enough to call him harsh by nature. First, they

must be kind enough themselves not to call him harsh.

 

Objections such as these are unanswerable... and should be avoided. Besides not being well written - some of the answers are simply laughable.

 

He was a great poet and a poet usually does not happen to

be harsh by nature.

 

This is just nonsense. Even within poor academic circles... this would be laughed at.
