What if the Israelis are right?
I know many of you go to great
lengths to differentiate between Zionism and Judaism. I think that that is a
discussion to be had, but not today. It is not really that important. You are
more important. For all your fighting Zionism, you have bought into their
system, proudly proclaiming the system and defending the system. On certain points
you will argue that what you do, does not conflict with your Islam and the
shari’ah. What are you not arguing for or promoting? You defended yourself in
relation to your lifestyle while you did not offer Islam as your lifestyle. This
is a warning for me as it is for everyone else. Indeed, many have become
ritualistic Muslims and then even ceremonial Muslims. Your thinking has been
tainted and these views are with which you are painted. It is important and
long overdue that these matters are unpacked because people are losing their
eemaan (faith) and their Islam. As things are unfolding, it is ever
increasingly difficult to talk about making hijrah (migration/emigration) to a
Muslim country as the doors to evil and corruption are opened by their rulers.
In Islam there is permissibility
for societal norms and trends as long as it does not conflict with Islamic law
itself. Thus, it can be argued that the age of marriage is not documented in
Islam except that it is permissible to marry when the age of puberty is reached.
However, the current norm is that the dunya (wordly) life is placed first
before the protection of the youngsters and the community itself. Living inside
the confines of the system must be limited to exactly those matters which are beyond
your control at this moment in time, e.g. schooling finishes generally at the
age of eighteen before you can attend a tertiary institution and gain some
reasonable qualification. But what is at the end of that qualification? Leaving
that aside for now, the age factor dominates our lives. Then that thing called
21st. You have shaped your life and given importance to matters
which does impact your faith. Here’s where you have to do further analysis.
Suffice to say, that while you are constrained by the system, in which you find
yourself, on some matters. Definitely, you have adopted customs that is not of
Islam while it is easy to avoid. To beat the system, you have to at least
forego those practices that are totally “optional” and carry no benefit, but
perhaps harm.
So, how is it that Israel is
possibly right? Well, your actions speak to it. Your acceptance of the system
speak to it. That Zionists are in all strategic positions in the global and
local scenario and are thus able to create and bear influence on the system,
means that your following the system is nothing but following Zionist
philosophy.
The discussion must be had to
extricate ourselves from the system. The start is to reject as much of it as
possible.
