Don’t Take The Bait!
Fascists Spread Fear, Hate
And Islamophobia To
Control Your Lives!
They Want To Divide And Rule
Mankind Is One Nation
Part 2/2
(M. Javed Naseem)
No religion promotes hatred, bias, racism or sectarianism.
Anybody engaged in promoting and preaching that, is an enemy of mankind. He’s
the Devil’s disciple, no matter what he claims to be (a Jew, Christian, Muslim,
Hindu, Buddhist or anything else). Jesus Christ called such preachers ‘The
Miserable Ones’ (Les Miserables).
Addressing the selfish priests and scribes – the hypocrites
and the corrupt preachers – Jesus, the son of Mary, said:
“Hypocrites! You do this to fill your purse, and therefore
you tithe rue and mint.”
“O miserable ones! For to others you show the most clear
way, by which you will not go. You scribes and doctors lay upon the shoulders
of others weights of unbearable weight, but you yourselves the while are not
willing to move them with one of your fingers. Truly I say to you, that every
evil has entered into the world under the pretext of the elders. Tell me, who
made idolatry to enter into the world, if not the usage of the elders? For
there was a king who exceedingly loved his father, whose name was Baal.”
“Whereupon, when the father was dead, his son for his own
consolation, caused to be made an image like to his father, and set it up in
the market-place of the city. And he made a decree that every one who
approached that statue within a space of fifteen cubits should be safe, and no
one any account should do him hurt. Hence the malefactors, by reason of the
benefit they received therefrom, began to offer to the statue roses and
flowers, and in a short time the offerings were changed into money and food,
insomuch that they called it god, to honour it. Which thing from custom was
transformed into a law, insomuch that the idol of Baal spread through all the
world.”
(From the Gospel of Barnabas, Chapters 32 & 38)
Today, we see the same in the Muslim world. People gather at
the tombs with offerings and ask for good luck. The graves are being worshipped
and people beseech the dead to solve their problems. This is the real ‘Shirk’.
Last fortnight was the festive season of Christmas and Eid-Milaad.
Now we are passing through the New Year festivities. I saw plenty of strange,
funny, even ridiculous Fatwahs (decrees) from different schools of thoughts who
all claim to be the ‘true’ Muslims.
The “Fatwah factories
of Islam”, run by
ignorant (Jaahil)
Mullahs, come up with
new products every month, even every
week sometime! If
you don’t buy their
product (ideology),
they offer you what
you need to
support your ideology and
reject what others
promote. So, what do
you need? A
Fatwah, a Hadith or a story
decorated with
Arab names that can
sell your (pro or
con) argument?
In the West, Muslims have become the victims of prejudice
called ‘Islamophobia’. But what is this ‘Fatwah-mania’ in the Muslim world?
Both groups are actively promoting hate and discrimination; bias and prejudice;
intolerance, division and anti-freedom behavior. This is against the teachings
of the prophets like Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad (may peace and
blessings be upon all of them).
We need unity, not division; we need compassion and love,
not hate and bias; we need to take care of each other, not condemn and kill
each other!
Despite all
Fatwahs, I wish you all a
very happy,
peaceful and prosperous
new year –
2016! My only hope is that
love, peace and
justice would spread,
the sanity
prevails, the wars and the
games of
bloodshed stop, ande we
finally learn
how to live and let live.
May God protect
you from all evils.
Mankind is one community and that community can survive only
on love, compassion, sympathy, cooperation, tolerance and peaceful co-existence.
We need those virtues badly now, more than ever!
What’s going on in Syria ,
Iraq , Afghanistan , Libya ,
Yemen
and other Muslim countries is horrible, to say the least. Is that bloodshed not
enough to wake us up? Let’s be humane and talk about humanity! Let’s try to
solve the problems of the suffering mankind! Let’s stop the hand of aggressor!
Let’s get together and stand up united against injustice, oppression and
persecution! Let’s promote justice, peace, harmony and goodwill! Let’s help
each other!
The Bible Says:
1-John 3:14
“We know that we have passed out of death into life, because
we love the brethren. He who does not love abides in death.”
1-John 4:20
“If a man says, ‘I love God’, and hates his brother, he is a
liar; for he that loves not his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God
whom he has not seen?”
1-Peter 2:17
“Honor all (men)! Love the brotherhood! Fear God! Honor the
king!”
John 13:35
“By this shall all (men) know that ye are my disciples, if
ye have love one to another.”
Hebrews 13:1
“Let brotherly love continue!”
John 13:34
“A new commandment I give unto you, that ye love one
another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.”
Philippians 2:2
Fulfill ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same
love, (being) of one accord, of one mind.”
Ephesians 4:29
“Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but
that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the
hearers.”
The Quran Says:
وَٱعْتَصِمُواْ بِحَبْلِ ٱللَّهِ جَمِيعاً وَلاَ تَفَرَّقُواْ
وَٱذْكُرُواْ نِعْمَةَ ٱللَّهِ عَلَيْكُمْ إِذْ كُنْتُمْ أَعْدَآءً
فَأَلَّفَ بَيْنَ قُلُوبِكُمْ فَأَصْبَحْتُمْ بِنِعْمَتِهِ إِخْوَاناً
وَكُنْتُمْ عَلَىٰ شَفَا حُفْرَةٍ مِّنَ ٱلنَّارِ فَأَنقَذَكُمْ مِّنْهَا
كَذٰلِكَ يُبَيِّنُ ٱللَّهُ لَكُمْ آيَاتِهِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَهْتَدُونَ
“And hold fast, all
together, by the rope
which Allah
(stretches out for you), and
be not divided among
yourselves; and
remember with
gratitude Allah's favor on
you; for you were
enemies and He joined
your hearts in love,
so that by His Grace,
you became brethren;
and you were on the
brink of the pit of
Fire, and He saved you
from it. Thus does Allah
make His Signs
clear to you, that
you may be guided.”
(al-Quran 3:103)
وَٱلَّذِينَ
جَآءُوا مِن بَعْدِهِمْ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا ٱغْفِرْ لَنَا
وَلإِخْوَانِنَا
ٱلَّذِينَ سَبَقُونَا بِٱلإِيمَانِ وَلاَ تَجْعَلْ
فِى
قُلُوبِنَا غِلاًّ لِّلَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ رَبَّنَآ إِنَّكَ رَءُوفٌ رَّحِيمٌ
“And those who came
after them say: Our
Lord! Forgive us, and
our brethren who
came before us into
the Faith, and leave not,
in our hearts, rancor
(or sense of injury)
against those who
have believed. Our Lord!
You are indeed Full
of Kindness, Most Merciful."
(al-Quran 59:10)
وَٱلَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ
وَهَاجَرُواْ وَجَاهَدُواْ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ
وَٱلَّذِينَ آوَواْ
وَّنَصَرُوۤاْ أُولَـٰئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنُونَ
حَقّاً لَّهُمْ
مَّغْفِرَةٌ وَرِزْقٌ كَرِيمٌ
“Those who believed
and left their homes
and strove for the
cause of Allah, and those
who took them in and
helped them – these
are the believers in
truth. For them is pardon,
and a bountiful
provision.”
(al-Quran 8:74)
Allah is talking about those believers who became victims of
aggression, suppression, tyranny, torture and persecution. Today, they are
known as the suffering humanity or the ‘refugees’. Now, for one second, think
about “those who took them in and helped them”!
Those are the words of Allah from the Quran! There is no
mention of the Jews, Christians or others. There’s just one category – ‘those
who took them in and helped them’. That’s a noble cause and the Almighty is
going to reward them for this act of kindness (whether they are Germans,
Swedes, Americans, Canadians, Turks, Saudis, etc.). He promised ‘pardon’ to
them with a ‘bountiful provision’ as bonus. So, who wants it?
We can promote love and compassion; we can combat hate,
prejudice and division; we can thwart apartheid and bias; we can unite the
mankind by helping each other. The choice is ours!
Now, there is one question about the role of Muslim nations
in this situation: What are they doing?
The answer is: Nothing, as usual. The Muslim countries are
ruled by hypocrites (the ‘Munaafiqeen’) who neither follow the Quran nor the
teachings of the Prophet (s.a.w.). Because, if they did, they won’t be entitled
to the positions they hold today. They are just puppets.
We need direction and it comes through true guidance. And
the true guidance comes from the Quran. We should avoid jumping to Fatwahs.
Just do your best to help others and let Allah be the True Judge!
The irony is that there are people who believe in the Day of
Resurrection and they know that they would be held accountable for everything
they did on this earth. Still they keep walking on the wrong path ignoring all
warnings. They would be the real losers.
ٱلَّذِينَ يَنقُضُونَ
عَهْدَ ٱللَّهِ مِن بَعْدِ مِيثَاقِهِ
وَيَقْطَعُونَ مَآ
أَمَرَ ٱللَّهُ بِهِ أَن يُوصَلَ وَيُفْسِدُونَ
فِى ٱلأرْضِ
أُولَـۤئِكَ هُمُ ٱلْخَاسِرُونَ
“Those who break the
covenant of
Allah after ratifying
it, and sever that
which Allah ordered
to be joined, and
(who) make mischief
in the earth;
those are they who
are the losers.”
(al-Quran 2:27)
In the battle between the ‘good’ and the ‘evil’, it is the
‘good’ that is bound to succeed as the ‘evil’ is bound to lose – that is the
law of nature. Allah narrates that the dwellers of the Heaven will ask the
dwellers of the Hell about their plight:
فِى جَنَّاتٍ
يَتَسَآءَلُون عَنِ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ مَا سَلَكَكُمْ فِى سَقَرَ
قَالُواْ لَمْ نَكُ
مِنَ ٱلْمُصَلِّينَ وَلَمْ نَكُ نُطْعِمُ ٱلْمِسْكِينَ
وَكُنَّا نَخُوضُ
مَعَ ٱلُخَآئِضِينَ وَكُنَّا نُكَذِّبُ بِيَوْمِ ٱلدِّينِ
حَتَّىٰ
أَتَانَا ٱلْيَقِينُ َ
“(They will be) in Gardens (of Delight);
“(They will be) in Gardens (of Delight);
they will question
each other, and (ask) of
the Sinners:
"What led you into Hellfire?"
They will say:
"We were not of those who
prayed; nor were we
of those who fed the
indigent. But we used
to talk vanities with
vain talkers; and we
used to deny the
Day of Judgment, until
there came to
us (the Hour) that is
certain."
(al-Quran 74:40-47)
So, disobedience to God (not praying, not thanking and not
glorifying His name; and not following His commands); not feeding the hungry;
not helping the poor/needy; and denying the Day of Judgment are the main causes
of our downfall. If we don’t change the course, we are bound for Hell.
