Who do you emulate?

 

Everyone has a choice even though, at some point, it may appear not to be the case. The proof that everyone has a choice is your belief, or not, in a God and the belief in paradise and hell in the afterlife. If everyone believed the same, then chances are it is because there was no choice in the matter, or rather the ability to choose.

That you have a say in a matter directly related to God, Allah, and you choose a path other than the faith and belief in Allah, is such a big decision. It shows your ability to challenge even your Creator. How then do you not, too, challenge your government and other authorities when they implement mind-boggling laws and regulations and engage in acts of mass deception with other governments? How is it that your governments support the oppression and genocide of a people? But more importantly, it is the Muslim who needs to be challenged, the Muslim who accepts the worship of One God, Allah, accepts the Prophethood of Muhammad ﷺ and the last divine revelation from Allah, viz Quran. After that, when Quran tells us that man will be placed on earth as His, Allah’s, representative, meaning that he (man) is to encourage with good and prohibit the sin, then how are Muslims are not at the forefront of implementing justice and peace? Rather, they are dependent on the United Nations and its organs. As for health, they implement WHO directives which does not have the best interest of people at heart. As for government loans, they look to the International Monetary Fund and World Bank which has interest, usury, as its cornerstone. As for education, more and more of the primary education is eroded of its good values while sexualisation and sexual education is being forced on young innocent minds. A genocide is happening in Palestine while our support of the oppressed leaves much to be desired. In the hijri month of Rabi-ul-Awal, people justify celebrating the birth of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ in a way that he did not teach us, nor did his companions engage in these practices in the manner his birth is celebrated today. While you go to great lengths to motivate this, the actual teaching and religious obligations are not that vociferously supported and implemented, but rather excuses are sought as a defence for your disobedience.

“Verily by time man(kind) is lost”. When will you and I rectify ourselves and contribute positively to the ummah and mankind at large. Who do you emulate when you say, “we hear, and we disobey”? Imagine living back at the time of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, would you and I have been his companions? Would we have been of the fortunate ones back then? We have been blessed with eemaan (faith in Allah and the clear and open rejection of the worship anything or anyone else). May we die upon that and may our last actions be our best actions.

Don’t stop talking about khilafat.

Your reality is the Test

Al Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza, the largest hospital in Palestine, is now out of service after the Israeli army destroyed almost all its buildings and killed or arrested most of its medical personnel.

 Sometimes I wonder what our situation would have been like had we lived in the time of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ or even Yeshu or Moshe (peace be upon them both). Today, many have the full truth of their, the Prophets’, teaching but opt to dilute it or reject it outright. There is a need to understand the reality in the sight of Allah versus the deception of this world while the latter is painted and presented as reality.

You have been sucked in by the system. Consequently, you struggle to join the dots, if you are even trying at all. You are looking for solutions through and within the system while the reality is that which is in the Deen (religion) of Allah, Islam. This modern-day system has been long in the making from the time Satan became the accursed. Over time, he had many minions and today it seems likely that the world is ready for self-destruction. A genocide is taking place and, like the viewing of a movie or a sports event with worldwide audiences, there is no concrete reaction to it. The organs and institutions set up for world peace and the protection of people was set up by the very same people who created a new country with new people in a land where people have always lived and was living at that time. A country was formed on the displacement of a people. That not being enough, a genocide is taking place before our very eyes. Have you exerted enough of yourself to say that you are fully supportive of the people of Palestine? Unless you start to think differently from the indoctrination (that so-called education) from your schooling, your exposure to movies and television, even reading of books, to the politics (including the political system), to the laws governing us, to the economic system, and much more, then you are still using their system to find solutions to play a meaningful role. Even religion has been changed that few know the pristine religion of Islam while they defend every innovation into the religion and spend little time to emulate Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and his companions (Allah be pleased with them).

You cannot abrogate responsibility. You cannot find ultimate solutions within the system. The democratic system will seemingly give you wins in some areas but, overall, it carries more harm than good, if any good really. There are people dying. The world is in chaos. Muslims ought to command with good and forbid evil and it requires action. Allah will not change the condition of a people unless and until they change themselves. A caliphate awaits and it will not be based on democracy. See the signs? You cannot wait for that time. You must act now. Allah guides the sincere.

You will watch the destruction of Majid-ul-Aqsa in the same way you are watching the destruction of Gaza, its people, its hospitals, its schools and universities. Say it isn’t so.

Will Allah save Aqsa?

 

Every Friday, for a Muslim, is good Friday, because Friday is the best day of the week.  As for other connotations, then that is not from Islam and we say to those people who believe in this “to you your religion and to us, ours” and we leave them be. We continue to worship Allah, who neither begets, nor is begotten, and we worship Him in the manner that He legislated.

The talk of the red heifer is almost reaching a crescendo. However, that ritual in and of itself, has no meaning and no basis in Islam. What may concern us rather is what happens after the sacrifice of the unblemished red heifer. While the general understanding from Quran is that the Jews will enter Masjid-ul-Aqsa again, the question of its destruction is not necessarily implied by it. They will cause destruction as they have already done in Gaza. But will this destruction eventually include Al-Aqsa? The rulers in the Muslim world are “steadfast in their condemnation” of the brutality meted out to the Palestinians. As for action, that is not forthcoming. The masses are told to be patient and obey their rulers. Should the scenario become reality in the short-term where Aqsa is stormed by the Jews, who will defend Aqsa. Is it that perhaps Allah will save Aqsa, the first Qiblah of the Muslims, like He saved the Ka’bah from Abrahah* and the elephants? There is a tendency for people to interpret Quran to suit their argument. The same applies to weak hadith and sometimes even fabricated hadith. You will need to avoid this and avoid sensationalism. Of course, if you do this for acts of worship, then you will have deviated from the straight path. Some people are genuinely researching current affairs and will come across information which may lack credibility. These should be discarded, and you must be patient until information reaches you from a worthy source. Indeed, leadership and guidance are lacking. The least you should do is to incline yourself, your family and general lifestyle to that which please Allah. You cannot be concerned about a possible world war or just the dire situation in Palestine and not seek ways to draw closer to Allah. It is easy to march, but more difficult to boycott businesses and products while reforming yourself is far from easy. But what outcome do you want in all of this? And is paradise not your goal? You have been more than tapped on the shoulder as a reminder.

The matters in Palestine must be of concern. These are difficult times. The red heifer is big news. The intended actions thereafter will impact Muslims and possibly the world. What are we to do then?

 

 

*Abrahah is not to be confused with Abraham. He is Abrahah al-Ashram, the Ethiopian governor of Yemen.

Final Wake up Call

Stop it  ---- stop it ----- stop it 

Five red heifers were found in Texas, USA and taken to Jerusalem. At least one must be sacrificed. Why?  Before we answer that question, you also need to know that the heifer must be totally unblemished. There must not be even one hair which is maybe white.

If you read the last blog then you know that the idea was always to weaken Muslims and to sow division between them. Hajj is a major stumbling block for the enemies of Allah – another discussion on its own. As per these enemies indoctrination, Muslims have been clamouring for democracy which is a system foreign to Islam. Where did democracy originate? As for medicine, Allopathic or modern medicine is the antithesis of tibb-un-Nabawi (Prophetic Medicine). In terms of  justice, what about these great international organisations like the UN and it organs like the ICJ and ICC? Can one country really hold the world to ransom and use its veto against the demands of the entire world, against morality? How then do you struggle to join the dots, thinking that there is any good in the UN while its existence is one of evil. Is evil not the opposite of good? Victory of truth over evil is inevitable but what will your role be in this victory, while you are duped at every turn. Have a good look at the top of the US administration then you see a state that was captured a very long time ago. Likewise, every major organisation in the world has been established or captured by the same group of people. You can hardly drink bottled water or eat cereal without realising that you too have been captured. You have been funding the ge   no   cide. The last four years should still be fresh in your memory. If you don’t realise that you were duped into believing what came from the WHO and WEF because it is the same people who is bringing you the G eno cide. But they have done a good job in your “education” and right now South Africa is facing another bill that take away your rights, as parents, in educating your children or as caregivers and guardians of your children. You are failing and as such you will be doing a disservice to your children.  

Oh yes, the red heifers. According to the Jews, once sacrificed, it will lead to the appearance of their messiah. There are some events in between – on that, another time. Suffice to say, that their messiah is Ad-dajjal, the antichrist. The point is that unless you wake up, you may end up liking the antichrist – may Allah guide and protect us all.

 

PS! There is no evidence yet that the red heifers are still unblemished and ready for slaughter. Importantly, Allah knows best when will the be the “hour”.  We merely try to join the dots.

Important dates on the calendar

 

How focused are you? Have you been a little distracted?

Painting the town red on Valentine’s Day. That is how it works, isn't it? These types of days are, at best, distractions from what really matters and how you should really live your life. In reality, it is such a lie that you should feel disgust at it. Of course, there are things like Mother’s Day and Father's Day, and many others. Introducing these matters, commercialised at that, is part of a system that takes you away from the truth. The truth can only be called the truth when it is pure and untainted. Islam is a complete way of life. When you make things important in your life, which is not from the religion of Islam, then you have fallen into the trap. There are things which you may find important but are permissible and therefore not a problem. However, the trap is far and wide, and few can claim to be free from it. How do you counter the influence of the Zionists and the minions of the antichrist when you, almost willingly, if not totally willingly, fall into their trap. The system of Islam is clear, and it is a way of life which Muslims must enter into completely. The more you engage in those matters which are foreign to Islam and which aim is to corrupt you, the weaker you become in fighting the enemy of Allah.

To those who wish to change Valentine’s Day to Palestine Day, have lost the plot. You cannot change a wrong by redressing it in the hope that it becomes something good. The truth must be untainted by wrong and sinful speech and actions. Such attempts to redress falsehood as truth must be rejected outright. As for the red heifer, according to the Jews, it is a sign of the coming of the Antichrist. Thus, it is important to clearly be in the right camp when the antichrist does appear. Will he appear soon? Allah knows best. What you and I should do, is make sure that we and our families are firmly rooted on the truth and that this will continue for generations to come. What an awesome legacy to leave.

The belief in Allah is incomplete without the disbelief in falsehood.

Red Heifer

The story of the red heifers is real interesting and rather important. Do you know what this is all about?

Before we get to talk more about that, you need to understand that they have you fairly much where they want you. You are likely enslaved to their system. Of the greatest sins is partaking in Riba (usury/interest) and hardly anyone can claim to not, at least, have the dust of Riba on them. So, if you are not committing shirk (making partnership with Allah), then probably the biggest sin you are engaged in right now is dealing in riba. The system spares no one. You are beholden to the system from medical practices to schooling to banking and finance and then, of course, entertainment. We will go down this road where you hide behind ulama (religious scholars) for certain rulings and claiming ignorance where no ruling suits you. It is pretty much clear that music is forbidden. Let’s do it the long way and not go into the detail now so that you can actually do some research, proper research. Don’t blame the older folk or hide behind those who passed on. The only way to hide behind them is to get in their graves which is surely not going to happen while you are alive. Pray for them rather and, you too, repent. But the easy part of this is to point out those matters which are clearly forbidden. Those matters that appear good and in order, is where the real deceit lies.  

This next line or two may need much more explanation but not right now. You and I were created by the most Perfect Creator, Allah. He left nothing out. Of course, He sent children as a blessing and a test (no, no, nor long discussion on this now). In the golden era of Islam, did any of these great Muslim scientists even suggest a baby must get jabbed at birth and then a million times more in the next few years of his life? Why then do we tamper with the creation of Allah when there is no apparent deficiency or ailment in the child? If you only but knew how absolutely amazing your immune system is until you messed with it. We can go on but for censorship. But you get the gist. Then there is the schooling system which is not healthy either. The system itself is detrimental but, more so, the curricula are deteriorating while you cannot be certain that what the children are being taught is factual.

You heard of the age of deception. There are two immediate parts to which you may want to pay special attention. There is a lot more, but two for now. Firstly, look at history, in some detail, over the last 100 to 150 years and then, secondly, learn more about the antichrist and end times. This is in no way a suggestion that we are right at the end, but we do ackowledge deception is ever on the rise. And then there’s the red heifers.

More on that in the next few posts.

CT Muslims - Tradition over everything

There is a right and there is a wrong and then there is a grey area. We have been given a way to discern things but do we do this as our lives evolve in its various aspects.

The many ways of doing things may lead to others not seeing  the benefit of one methodology over another. Many will see this blog only as criticism. The truth is that as Muslims we ought to think and ponder over things. Allah speaks much about the Bani Israeel in Quran and many will read it as mere stories or some may even use these ayaat to point a finger at the Jews. This sort of thinking causes us to fail to remind ourselves when we are drifting away from the laws of Allah because we have failed to realise our shortcomings.

Our community is one filled with tradition and, many-a-time, consumed by it. It is a fact that many times either tradition trumps the Islamic ruling or that at times tradition cannot be separated from the religious practices of the people. We either justify some actions or we avoid the topic in its entirety and we condemn the one for objecting to a certain practice or tradition as a madman. There must be a challenge out there for someone to write a book about the laws of Islam versus the many practices and traditions. Such a book that will shed light on the various matters and that we may all be better informed. Issues relating to birth, to marriage and to death and the very many others traditions and practices in between.

 Of the customs is to comment on religious issues either without knowledge on the subject or without the requisite proofs from Quran and Sunnah. Perhaps as a sign of dwindling respect for parents or perhaps people are better informed, but these days one hears less  "my father did so" or "my father said ..." which of course cannot be used of proof (of validity) in religious matters. The other interesting approach is to say that "my Sheikh/Mowlana/Imaam said ...". It may be that the listener did not fully listen the Imam and thus may have omitted something or the Imam may have passed on something without relating the proof or context. This is something that may cause as issue to be lost in translation or rather transmission. Thus it becomes difficult to present your argument, defense or become a proponent of an issue when you say "my imam said ...". Yet, our community life is driven by this concept. The difficulty is then that when there is disagreement, the argument is raised about "ulama bashing" when in fact it is merely a case of contextualising a ruling or correcting a transmitted statement.

The crux of the matter is whether we profess to be a vibrant Muslims community or whether we can attest to being that type of community. It is a question that we can ask and answer individually and collectively. There must be a benchmark though. Were we to made aware of actions and traditions that do not conform to the laws of Islam, will be discard them. We may at this stage deny that we actually have to come to this sort of analysis. There is an opportunity for us to do introspection and as issues are raised, we may find a way to analyse it and take the appropriate action.

May we of those who uphold the Quran and Sunnah and discard those practices that is not in sync with Islam.

And Allah knows Best
