The same applies to the saying, "Whoever is called Muhammad enjoys the protection of Muhammad and his name will bring him close to Paradise." The same applies to those who say, "Whoever is called Muhammad, his household will have such and such…" All these reports are baseless. What matters is following Muhammad (peace be upon him), not being called by his name.
How many of those who are called Muhammad are evil, because they do not follow Muhammad or implement his Shari`ah (Islamic law)? Names do not purify people; what purifies them is their righteous deeds and their fear of Allah. So whoever is called Ahmad or Muhammad or Abu AlQasim and is a Kafir (disbeliever/nonMuslim) or Fasiq (someone flagrantly violating Islamic law) will not benefit from his name.
Each person should fear Allah and strive to obey Him and adhere to the Shari`ah of Allah with which He sent His Prophet Muhammad. This is what will benefit him and this is the way to salvation and safety. As for names separated from practice in accordance with Shari`ah, they have nothing to do with salvation or punishment.
It was a mistake on the part of AlBusiry to say in his AlBurdah poem: Verily, I have a security from him due to my name i.e. Muhammad, and he is the most faithful of mankind in fulfilling his promise
He committed worse fatal mistake when he said: Most generous of mankind, I have no one to take refuge in Except you at the occurrence of widespread calamity If at my resurrection, he should not take me by my hand Out of kindness, then say sure I am fallen This world and the Hereafter are indeed some of your generosity And the knowledge of the Preserved Tablet (Lawh) and the Pen is some of your knowledge
This poor poet resorts to the Messenger (peace be upon him) instead of Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He). He mentioned that he is lost if the Messenger (peace be upon him) did not help him, forgetting that it is Allah (Glorified be He) Who is Capable of harming, benefiting, giving, withholding and saving His Awliya' (pious people).
He regarded the Messenger (peace be upon him) as the disposer of the worldly life and the Hereafter and that they are some of his bounties. He made him knowledgeable of Ghayb (the Unseen) and that the knowledge of the Lawh, and the Pen are of his knowledge. This is utter Kufr (disbelief) and exaggeration. We ask Allah to grant us wellbeing and safety.
If he died while holding this belief, he then died with worst Kufr and deviation. Every Muslim should beware of this exaggeration and should not be deceived by AlBurdah and its composer. Allah is the one who is sought for help and in Him we trust. There is neither might nor power except with Allah!
