How Did Muhammad's Father Die Four Years Before His Birth? by Sixfiguresmart(m): 9:17am On Jul 31, 2022
This question is not as stupid as you might think. It is raised as a result of the discrepancies surrounding Muhammad’s birth:

TWO WEDDINGS


Muhammad’s grandfather, Abd al-Mutallib and his father Abdallah got married the same day.

In his biography of Muhammad, Ibn Hisham says that the father of Muhammad, Abdallah, had sexual intercourse with his wife Aminah bint Wahb in her father’s house immediately after the marriage. Aminah became pregnant with Muhammad (It is undisputed fact that Amina became pregnant with Muhammad just after becoming married. And multiple sources confirm this).

Muhammad’s grandfather Abd al-Mutallib and his new wife Hala also had a son Hamza, who was Muhammad’s uncle, Hamza.

WHY IS HAMZA OLDER?

“The Book of the Major Classes” by historian Ibn Saad says that Abdallah died a few months after his marriage at the age of 25, when his wife Amina was pregnant with Muhammad.

We don’t know when Hamza was conceived, but the earliest Hamza could have been conceived was right after the wedding, just like Muhammad.

The problem now is that Muhammad and Hamza should be about the same age. If Hala and Amina both became pregnant soon after their marriage, Muhammad and Hamza would be the same age.

If Hala became pregnant a few years later, Hamza would be younger than Muhammad. But Islamic history informs us that Hamza was older than Muhammad.

In his book “Finding the Truth in Judging the Companions”, Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani writes that Hamza was born two to four years before Muhammad. Ibn Saad says in “The Book of the Major Classes” that Hamza was killed at the Battle of Uhud when he was 59 years old. Ibn Saad adds that Hamza was four years older than Muhammad.

SO WHAT HAPPENED?

There is just one logical explanation here: Muhammad was conceived 2–4 years later than Hamza. But the problem is that Muhammad’s assumed father, Abdallah died 2 months after the wedding!

So what happened?

Again, the logical conclusion would be that Abdallah was not Muhammad’s biological father, and that Muhammad was not of the influential tribe of Quraysh!

Or could it be… a miracle?

A 7th CENTURY ARAB “MIRACLE”

So, instead of admitting the possibility of Muhammad being not fathered by Abdallah, some Muslim scholars go on tangents to declare that fetuses can stay in the womb up to 4 years!

After all, it happened to Muhammad, so it’s a biological fact!

The famous opinion is that ‘Abdullah died in the second month of the pregnancy of lady Amenah with the Prophet and this was confirmed by Ibn Kathir who was born 730 years after Mohammed was born, in 1300, Bosra, Syria. Other less authenticated versions narrated that ‘Abdullah passed away during the Prophet’s infant years and other version suggested that the Prophet was two months old when his father died and others said 28 months or 9 months.

The man, Ibn Kathir that holds the most authenticated storyline surrounding Mohammed's birth was born 730 year after Mohammed was born. hahaha Let that sink in for a minute. It is synonymous to Lilibet, the daughter of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle who was born this year, confirming the birth of the son of King Edward I 'Longshanks of England born in the year 1292. Hilarious isn't it? And

It is shocking to see the lies they have been telling for centuries.
You can't believe how many stay blind and believing all these nonsense.
