Surah At-Tagabun
64:11-No kind of calamity can occur except by the leave of Allah: and if anyone believes in Allah (Allah) guides his heart (aright): for Allah knows all things. 5492
5492 - What we consider calamities may be blessings in disguise. Pain in the body is often a signal of something wrong, which we can cure by remedial measures. So in the moral and spiritual world, we should in all circumstances hold firmly to the faith that nothing happens without Allah's knowledge and leave; and therefore there must be some justice and wisdom according to His great universal Plan.
Our duty is to find out our own shortcomings and remedy them.
If we try to do so in all sincerity of heart, Allah will give us guidance. (64.11)
There is no calamity in the Western world but RAMPANT in the Muslim world !
(Our duty is to find out our own shortcomings and remedy them.) Now it is crystal clear of the shortcomings – that is Muslims in Islam – have brought about distortions and deceptions - authored by the 73 sects (except 1) .
Al-Tirmidhi Hadith
Hadith 171 Narrated by
Abdullah ibn Amr
Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him) said: There will befall my Ummah exactly (all those) evils which befell the people of Isra'il, so much so that if there was one amongst them who openly committed fornication with his mother there will be among my Ummah one who will do that, and if the people of Isra'il were fragmented into seventy-two sects my Ummah will be fragmented into seventy-three sects. All of them will be in Hell Fire except one sect. They (the Companions) said: Allah's Messenger, which is that? Whereupon he said: It is one to which I and my companions belong.
Transmitted by Tirmidhi.
64:12- So obey Allah and obey His Apostle; but if ye turn back the duty of Our Apostle is but to proclaim (the Message) clearly and openly. 5493
The Message is loud and clear – but who cares!
The Leaders of Muslims will be chosen from ignorant people, and they will rule according to their whims and fancies.
SO HOW TO REMEDY THIS?
TO REMEDY:? (Tackling just one topic)
Majority of Muslims have got used to a way of life. They find it difficult to extricate themselves from these shackles. They are merely following what their fathers of old and the ancients did. They refuse to believe when Truth is revealed. They have become chronic and obstinate. They are stubborn and turn violent. They are practicing SHIRK. Most of the Masjids have graves, and in a way they resort to grave worshipping - worst of all sins which Allah will not forgive. In this way, all the magnificent rewards and blessings which Allah had promised and guaranteed are shut out and they remain a helpless people.
Jumu’ah Prayers – tried to clear the mess, at least on one matter, but all attempts turned futile.
What are they doing: They go late , fail to pray tahiyyathul masjid prayers of two rakats, they sit in corners -leaning against walls- jumping over the shoulders-fail to sit in front ranks. Soon after the first Azan, they start praying two rakats of prior sunnah of Jumu’ah when in fact there is no such prayer. Some pray 4 and some 6 rakats! Mahshar is announced (this too in an innovation) by the Muazzin and another Azan given –both inside the masjid. Imam gives a long Khutba –( when it has to be short) - people tend to doze off or some cannot understand the language. Most of them supplicate with raised hands-and then wipe the palms all over the body and also blow into their shirts. After completing the obligatory prayer, they stand up and pray the sunnah prayers some two, some four and so on at the same place without moving even a bit away. ( Whereas Prophet (Sal) went home soon after and prayed two rakats of sunnah prayers If prayed in the mosque, it should be four rakats.For some, asking Du’a is their main purpose in Jumu’ah.
If this prayer is done correctly, Allah has vouchsafed wonderful blessings and benefits through this magnificent act , but lo! they will loose all this, wont they?
Prophet (Sal) said: “ There are three types of people who attend the Friday Prayer. One is a man who is present but speaks during the Khutbah and that is his portion of the prayer. Second is a man who is present and makes supplications. In his case, Allah may give him what he asks, if He wishes, or He may not give him what he asks. Third is a person who is present and observes silence and does not step over the necks of the Muslims nor does he harm anyone. For him, there is an expiation from that Friday until the previous Friday plus an additional three days.
One should do his best to fulfill a number of acts and then, upon doing so, the Friday Prayer will be an expiation for him for ten days of deeds.
It is the same with all other matters too. . Are we carrying out the more difficult part?-the spirit of unity, brotherhood, mutual consultation, and collective understanding and action? NO !
Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith
Hadith 4.803 Narrated by
Hudhaifa bin Al Yaman
"There will be some people who will lead (people) according to principles other than my tradition. You will see their actions and disapprove of them." I said, "Will there be any evil after that good?" He said, "Yes, there will be some people who will invite others to the doors of Hell, and whoever accepts their invitation to it will be thrown in it (by them)." I said, "O Allah's Apostle! Describe those people to us." He said, "They will belong to us and speak our language." I asked, "What do you order me to do if such a thing should take place in my life?" He said, "Adhere to the group of Muslims and their Chief." I asked, "If there is neither a group (of Muslims) nor a chief (what shall I do)?" He said, "Keep away from all those different sects, even if you had to bite (i.e. eat) the root of a tree, till you meet Allah while you are still in that state."
C:96 – THE HARDEST STRIVING AND FIGHTING ARE NEEDED
TO COMBAT EVIL AND HYPOCRISY, FOR SIN
CAN REACH A STAGE WHEN THE DOORS OF FORGIVENESS
ARE CLOSED. THE GOOD MUST SHUN ALL EVIL
AS UNCLEAN, AND GLADLY WELCOME ALL CHANCE
OF SERVICE AND SACRIFICE, AS BRINGING THEM CLOSER
TO THE PRESENCE AND MERCY OF ALLAH.
PROPHET MOHAMED’S LAST SERMON
"O People, lend me an attentive ear, for I don't know whether, after this year, I shall ever be amongst you again. Therefore listen to what I am saying to you carefully and take these words to those who could not be present here today.
Beware of Satan, for your safety of your religion. He has lost all hope that he will ever be able to lead you astray in big things, so beware of following him in small things.
O People, listen to me in earnest, worship Allah, say your five daily prayers (Salah), fast during the month of Ramadhan, and give your wealth in Zakat. Perform Hajj if you can afford to. You know that every Muslim is the brother of another Muslim. You are all equal. Nobody has superiority over other except by piety and good action.
O People, no prophet or apostle will come after me and no new faith will be born. Reason well, therefore, O People, and understand my words which I convey to you. I leave behind me two things, the Qur'an and my example, the Sunnah and if you follow these you will never go astray.
We must trust in Allah, and do whatever is possible for us in the interests of the young life for which we are responsible. We must not be frightened by difficulties. Allah will give us relief and provide a solution if we act with honest integrity. Cf. xciv. 5-6. (65.7)
May Allah, Praised and Exalted be He, guide us to His Way, and may He, Praised and Exalted be He, make us eligible for His pleasure, and may He, Praised and Exalted be He, make us worthy of carrying the message of His religion, and worthy of being the followers of His Prophet Mohammed, Peace and Blessing be upon him.
