Asalam-o-Alaikum: I am facing severe anxiety anddepression these days.
My problem is that during regular religious discussion with my wife I
was telling her that a lot of people say that non-muslims in western
countries can become much better muslim then us only if they recite
Kalma. I was telling her that one should not say itbecause they don't
accept core Islamic concept i.e. "There is no god but Allah, and
Muhammad is the messenger of Allah." During discussion I gave her
following example: "Lets suppose there is one father and son. The son
refuses to acknowledge his father i.e. he is saying: you are not my
father and I don't believe in it that you are my father but I will be
good to you – but you are not my father." Then Isaid: "now will the
fathercare about his son's rest of acts when he is openlydenying that
he is his father". No I am worried that I have done Kufr by giving an
example of human being while discussing mater of Allah.I did not
intend to compare Allah to His creation. But as soon as I finished
talking I becomeworried that I have done Kufr and because of that my
marriage is now also void. Can you please guide me? I have already
repent so many times. If I indeed have done Kufr then what is ruling
regarding it and marrying again. Kashif
Answer
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify
that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad,
is His Slave and Messenger.
Examples are given to bring the meaning closer to people's minds. They
do not necessarily indicate similarity in all aspects. If someone
gives an example from the real life of the creatures to bring a matter
related to the Creator closer to minds, then this does not mean that
it indicates drawing a similarity between the Creator and the
creatures. The Quran includes some such examples:
Ibn Abi ShaybahreportedthatMujaahidsaid regarding the saying of Allaah
The Almighty )which means(: }Allaah presents an example: a slave ]who
is[ owned andunable to do a thing and he to whom We have provided from
Us good provision, so he spends from it secretly and publicly. Can
they be equal? Praise to Allaah! But most of them do not know. And
Allaah presents an example of two men, one of them dumb and unable to
do athing, while he is a burden to his guardian. Wherever he directs
him, he brings no good. Is he equal to one who commands justice, while
he is on a straight path?{ ]Quran 16: 75-76[, "All this is an example
given of the idol and the True God."
Qataadahalso said regarding the saying of Allaah The Almighty )which
means(: "One of them dumb", "It means the idol." As for the saying of
Allaah The Almighty )which means(: "Is he equal to one who commands
justice", he said: "It means Allaah." ]'Abdur-Razzaaq[
Thus, the matter is not problematic at all. Hence, you are still
Muslim and your wife is still in marriage with you. Do not worry and
forget about those evil thoughts, and think about what can be
beneficial for you in yourreligion and worldly life.
Allaah Knows best./- - - - Tuesday, June 18, 2013
