Bara'at al-Nabi min al-Khata' wa-al-'Itab fi Ayat al-Kitab براءة النبي من الخطاء والعتاب في آيات الكتاب

Bara’at al-Nabi min al-Khata’ wa-al-'Itab fi Ayat al-Kitab (براءة النبي من الخطأ والعتاب في آيات الكتاب), is a specialized contemporary theological and exegetical study. It is a scholarly defense of the theological doctrine of 'Ismah (the absolute infallibility of the Prophets), specifically focusing on the character and actions of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ.

Core Thesis and Objective

The primary aim of the book is to address, analyze, and contextualize twenty-three specific Quranic verses (ayahs) that, upon a superficial reading, might appear to contain divine reprimand ('itab), blame, or correction of the Prophet’s ﷺ personal judgments or decisions.

In Islamic theology (particularly within the Sunni 'Aqeedah), the concept of the Prophet’s infallibility is a foundational tenet. The author systematically demonstrates that these verses—often cited by critics, orientalists, or those with a weak understanding of the Arabic language and scholastic traditions—do not imply that the Prophet ﷺ committed sins (dhunub), moral errors, or failed in his divine mission.
