Meaning of Daabbat al-Ardh in the Quran and Shia Hadith

The meaning of Daabbat al Ardh is Not beast of the earth at all. We should not be misled by wrong translations. Baabbat al-Ardh is any being which moves on earth. Some people wrongly think that it means an animal. While in the Holy Qu’ran we read that every moving creature is a Daabbah as Allah (SWT) says in Surah Hud verse number 6 : “There is no Daabbah on the earth but its sustenance is from Allah (SWT)”. And also in Surah Nahl verse 61 : “If Allah (SWT) blames people because of the wrong they do, no Daabbah will remain on the earth”. Which means all human beings are also Daabbah. In Surah Al Anfal verse 22 : “Verily, the worst of Daabbah with Allah (SWT) are those who are deaf and dumb who don’t reflect (don’t understand)”. So Daabbah is not only an animal but also all the human beings are Dabbah as well. The verse in the Holy Qur’an which is regarding Daabbat al Ardh was discussed among many scholars according to the references of their knowledge, Those who do not follow the Ahlul Bayt (AS), they claimed that the Daabbah is an unusual animal which has abnormal acts, but this understanding goes against the verse itself when Allah (SWT) says in Surah al-Naml verse 82 : “And when the word of torment is fulfilled against them, we shall bring out from the earth, a moving creature (Daabbah from the earth) to speak to them that most of mankind did not believe with certainty in the verses of Allah (SWT)”. So this is the act of this special creature and it cannot be an animal who speaks the facts which are known only to the prophets and their successors. This Daabbah itself will be a miracle from Allah (SWT). The scholars who follow Ahlul Bayt (AS) understand the real meaning of this verse from the authentic Hadeeths which says that Daabbah according to the Hadeeth narrated by Huthaifah Ibn al Yaman that the Holy Prophet (SAWA) explained this verse and said that the Daabbah will be supported by Allah (SWT) and no enemy will harm this Daabbah nor can escape from this Daabbah and this Daabbah will stamp on the Mo’min forehead that he is a Mo’min and will write on the forehead of a Kaafir that he is a Kaafir and the Daabbah will be carrying the stick of Prophet Musa and the ring of Prophet Sulaiman (ref : Majma’ al Bayan by al Tabrasi).
