You are entrenching the plot

 


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.

Days of our lives

 


Wagging tongues definitely make for days of our lives. And how? The social and personal lives of others make for much juicier topics than the many real issues in the world, even crime. This is how social norms are often formed by the opinions expressed in circles of gossip. Can people who are divorced remarry their previous spouses or can a divorced person marry a person who was not married before?

These are the details discussed and analysis are made of the parties to such marriages. Divorce happens. Sometimes the parties are too hasty and do not give reconciliation a chance or it is just a decision that works for them at the time. Circumstances can change afterwards and there is a mutual understanding and agreement to remarry the ex-spouse. What is there to talk about except others may learn from it. Nevertheless, a prayer is welcome. Many-a time these marriages are better than their first stab at marriage. Of course, there are a few that go exactly like the first time they were married to each other. And that is life. There is no problem getting back with your ex-spouse, so negative chatter about it is uncalled for and problematic. People make mistakes in marriage for a number of reasons and marriages fail. These people have not given up on the sanctity of marriage and later remarry someone who may not have been married before. Why is the divorcee’s status important beyond the few that really matter. It may matter to the inner circle if there are children from the previous marriage. Other than that, the normal background check on the prospective spouse is in order. Outsiders should only contribute if they have pertinent information for either party to the marriage. Otherwise, there is no need for talk to be about the previous status of either party. Why must you be like that?

Now let them getting married and pray for them.

Should you boycott?

 



You know when you chat to someone on the phone and the conversation goes something like this:

Person 1: “Where are you?”

Person 2: "I am here, where are you?”

person 1: "I am also here, but I don’t see you”

Person 2: "strange, we are both ‘here’ but not at the same place”

This in reality becomes a mockery and confusion sets in. Now when someone, who is not happy with themselves, tell you to accept them as they are while they themselves don’t accept who they are or if they had some medical intervention, then who they were. Are you confused yet? You have to accept something in place of what they are not accepting. So, what if you accept something that you think they should accept? The world is turned on its head and the perception of reality has been skewed for too many. Marriage has always been between a man and a woman, until fairly recently but by Allah, it is always between a man and a woman. However, only females gave birth to every person currently living and that birth had to have male intervention. Thus, the reproduction of humans happens because of males and females and not males and males, neither females and females. Morals and ethics have been redefined but the nature with which we were created cannot be redefined. The accursed one, satan, is an avowed open enemy to mankind. He has confused some humans to oppose even the very nature with which they were born.

Trade is the financial dealing of goods and services. People are not obliged to patronise a store or a brand and may voluntarily decide how and where to spend their hard-earned money. How can it make sense to spend your money at places which defies even nature and engages in immorality. The sexualisation of innocent children and the messages of confusion from the promoters of LGBT as a means of protecting a minority is unjustified and illogical. Is paedophilia practised by a minority and do they need protection and promotion? Where will this end? It will not end until and unless you follow their way of life. Muslims have rights too and their right is to spend their money at businesses other than the promoters of vice. In fact, Muslims have a duty and moral responsibility to spend their money elsewhere. Muslims have a responsibility to protect their children and to teach them right from wrong.

O Muslim, if you are silent on this matter, then know you will be questioned for your silence on this very matter. O Muslim, supporting the perpetrators and promoters of these immoral people through your economic support will give them a bigger voice and soon it will consume your children. Spread the message and let us be firm on the teachings of Quran and Sunnah.  Know that Allah is the ally of the believers.
