Rabbanaa aatinaa fid-dunyaa hasanatan wafil aakhirati hasanatan waqinaa 'athaaban-naar/-
(Surah Al-Baqarah ,verse 201)

The wise Muslim – who is aware of the guidelines onverifying news and
drawing conclusions from it – should not hasten to believe in them,
let alone spread them and call people to glorify Allah in amazement.
But what has happened is the opposite of that; manypeople believed in
these "stories" and they started spreading them and talking about them
in their gatherings, and passing them around on their mobile phones
and in e-mails, then suddenly afew days later they are surprised when
it turns out that it was a fabrication spread by some of those who are
zealous for Islam – in ignorance and naivety – orby some hateful
heretics – in mockery and scorn. Thishas caused confusion for many
people. And Allah is the One Whose help we seek.
What we object to is hastening to believe thesethings and regarding
themas miracles and challenges,telling everybody about them, and
making such stories a phenomenon without end. Every day there is a new
story; the matter has reached such a level of foolishness that noone
of sound mind could believe in these things. Wesee that in the story
of thelion's roar in which some people – by a huge stretchof the
imagination – hear the name of Allah. Much worse than that is what is
happening in one country where people have startedto touch a tree on
the trunk of which the name of Allah appeared, seeking barakah
(blessing) and healing from it. Then uponinvestigation it turns out
that it had been carved by someone who wanted to mislead the people.
The Muslims should refrainfrom propagating such rumours that may cause
people to go astray.
We ask Allah to help us understand our religion.
And Allah knows best.
