[quote]Assalam o alaikum! Brother Ibrahim, one thing which is still confusing to me is that u wrote "It was more than 10 years of preaching of Prophet pbuh has passed when they were addressed as Kafir in the Surah Kafiroon". It means that the mushrikeen of Makkah were declared "Kafir" after 10 years and they were those who rejected the truth even knowing the truth (as per your understanding of the definition of kufr). My confusion is that among these "kafirs" addressed in the sura Al-Kaferoon, there were many people who accepted Islam later (i mean after they being declared kafir). So it would mean that the people who accepted Islam (and of course became Sahabah) after Sura Kaferoon were those who knowingly rejected Islam in the first phase and accepted it at a later stage. Is any such thing reported from any sahabi? Does not this definition of kufr leads to confusion and make the intentions of sahabah doubtful? Coming to the second part, the rejecters of Prophet fall in special category and must be killed. As per my understanding you mean that the persons who reject the Prophet of their time knowingly are destined to be killed (either by "Azaab-e-Elahi or some other way). And this law is only for the people of that time. Is it so? Regards! Salahuddin Zafar[/quote]
