Question

I heard some people talking about the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) discussing whether or not he was 'light'. I did not understand what they were talking about. But I am wondering what is the right thing to believe about this?

Answer


Assalamu alaikum,

This question was very ably dealt with by both Sheikh Nuh Keller and Sayyidi Dr. Mostafa al-Badawi, in their articles, which may be found on Sidi Mas'ud Khan's excellent website, http://www.masud.co.uk in the section about the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace).

Wassalam,

Faraz
