have fear of Allah so that hopefully you will gain mercy. (Surat
al-Hujurat, 10)
Do not envy each other, donot bid against each other,do not hate each
other, do not turn your backs on each other, and let none ofyou sell
upon the sale of another. Be slaves of Allah,brothers. A Muslim is the
brother of a Muslim, he does not wrong him, fail to assist him, lie to
him nor despise him. (Imam an-Nawawi, The Complete Forty Hadith, p.
122)
Many Muslims fail to attachsufficient important to the global reign of
Islam. It really is amazing. They genuinely attach importance to
prayer, and the hajj, but not to the global reign of the faith. They
do not even consider it important for the faith to spread in the
regions where they live. Nor among their own families. Yet this is the
greatest religious obligation. The Qur'an talks about this from start
to finish. (A9 TV, March 6, 2012)
Muslims Who Desire The Oppression In The World To End Should Seek For
The Islamic Union With All Their Hearts
Unity, cooperation, solidarity, friendship, self-sacrifice, support,
and similar other qualities are some of the beautiful attributes which
are the underlying foundation of the Qur'anic morality. This is stated
in many sayings of Our Prophet (saas). One of them reads:
'Believers are like the different parts of a building, each one
supporting the other.' Then he demonstrated what he meant by
interlocking his fingers. (Hadith of Al-Bukhari and Muslim, Words of
the Prophet Muhammad, p. 67)
Allah in many verses of theQur'an states that believers are guardians
of each other. The word"guardian [wali]" means friend, protector,
helper and supporter. According to this, fellow Muslims are obligated
to acquire each other as friends, defend each other and support each
other, because this is a command of Allah to them.
In a verse from Allah, the believers are required to guard one another:
Your friend is only Allah and His Messenger and those who believe:
those who perform prayer and give the alms, and bow. (Surat al-Ma'ida,
55)
In the next verse, Allah reveals that the believers befriending and
guarding each other would definitely be victorious in the intellectual
struggle they wage against the unbelievers:
As for those who make Allah their friend, and His Messenger and those
who believe: it is the party of Allah who are victorious! (Surat
al-Ma'ida, 56)
From this verse and many more verses of the Qur'an it is understood
that whenbelievers love and befriendone another, support each other,
they will surely end all evil that the unbelievers have been
implementing on believersand will establish good morality on earth
ordainedby Allah. Obviously, in order to stop injustices, oppressions
and wrongdoings against all Muslims in many parts of the world today,
they must embrace each other, eliminating the distance between them
and form the Islamic Union as soon as possible. Allah informs us in a
verse of the environment which will occur when believers do not unite:
Those who disbelieve are the friends and protectors of one another. If
you do not act in this way there will be turmoil in the land and great
corruption. (Surat al-Anfal, 73)
There is no doubt that no conscientious Muslim fearing Allah would
want to undertake the responsibility for the disorder and the
oppression that result from their turning their backs on their
brothers and sisters and not uniting. However, everyone who does not
strive for the unification ofMuslims will be responsible for the pain,
suffering, oppression and injustice they witness.
Our brothers and sisters who want to stop the persecution should pray
as"O Lord, bring about the Islamic Union soon"
All Muslims who love Allah,our Prophet (saas), and their Muslim
brothers and sisters, should feel the responsibility and want the
Islamic world to be in unity in order to bring peace and security to
the millions living in captivity, oppressed, persecuted, subjected to
torture, driven from their homes and forced to live in poverty around
the globe. In fact, the shortest, the most efficient and accurateway
to save our brothers and sisters is to ensure theIslamic Union.
Our brothers and sisters who want the Islamic Union in order to save
the Muslim world should pray as "O Lord, bring about theIslamic Union
soon," "establish the Islamic Union now." Allah answersbelievers'
prayers. Our brothers and sisters who pray this beautiful prayer will
soon see that their prayers come true inshaAllah. Persistently engaged
in this prayer andacting accordingly, believers will no doubt be
greatly rewarded.
Sectarian fighting must end; the differences shouldnot be seen as
justificationfor separation.
