Answer |
Wa `alaykum As-Salamu wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.
In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
All praise and thanks are due to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon His Messenger.
Dear brother in Islam, we would like to thank you for the great confidence you place in us, and we implore Allah Almighty to help us serve His cause and render our work for His Sake.
Allah Almighty created this life and laid down for it certain fixed laws. He has ordained that the believers strive against their enemies and prepare all they can for that purpose. They are to follow the ways that bring about victory. This is to say, they are to believe in Allah, prepare as much force as they can, be always on the alert, take prompt action on hearing the call to jihad, have a sincere wish and enthusiasm to participate in jihad in Allahs cause, unite and join hands with one another, obey the Muslim leader and keep order, be courageous and steadfast in fighting, and have confidence that Allah will grant them victory.
The late prominent Muslim scholar, Sheikh Ahmad Ash-Sharabasi, professor of `Aqeedah and Philosophy at Al-Azhar University, stated:
There is no doubt that the first way to victory is to believe in Allah, the Creator of the universe, and the Only One Who can revive nations and breathe life into souls?. Almighty Allah says: Lo! Allah defendeth those who are true. Lo! Allah loveth not each treacherous ingrate. (Al-Hajj: 38) He also says:
To help believers is incumbent upon Us
(Ar-Rum: 47) and Lo! We verily do help Our messengers, and those who believe, in the life of the world and on the day when the witnesses arise
(Ghafir: 51)
Belief in Allah does not mean only to utter the Shahadah (the Testimony of Faith) and words and expressions in remembrance of Allah. True belief in Allah is to have unshakeable, firm belief that Allah is the Supporter of all in the heavens and the earth; to follow all His teachings; to obey His commands regarding the necessary measures to preserve our honor and (national) sovereignty; and to join efforts with one another as believers to hold fast to Allahs law. He who does so is guided to the Straight Path.
The second way to achieve victory is to prepare as much force as we can to confront our enemies, without underestimating the force of the enemies and the treacherous intrigues they may plot against us. We should also not be deluded regarding our ability to gain victory while we have no firm bases for that. Allah Almighty says: Make ready for them all thou canst of (armed) force and of horses tethered, that thereby ye may dismay the enemy of Allah and your enemy, and others beside them whom ye know not. Allah knoweth them. Whatsoever ye spend in the way of Allah it will be repaid to you in full, and ye will not be wronged. (Al-Anfal: 6)
Whatsoever ye spend in the way of Allah
in the above Quranic verse indicates that every Muslim can contribute directly or indirectly to the cause of jihad. He who is able to fight directly in the battlefield is to do so, and he who cannot may support the cause in other ways. Whatever the individuals position in society, he can contribute to the cause of his nation, and each will be rewarded by Allah according to his contribution. Allahs Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), said: Anybody who equips a warrior (going to fight) in Allahs cause is like one who actually fights. And anybody who looks well after his (the warriors) family in his absence is also like one who actually fights. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would also send some of his Companions on missions in the interest of the nation at times of battles. He (peace and blessings be upon him) would regard those Companions as fighters in Allahs cause and would give them shares of the booty equal to that of those who fought in the battlefield, though they had not actually participated in fighting. He (peace and blessings be upon him) would regard them all as fighters in Allahs cause, for they had contributed directly or indirectly to the cause of jihad. May Allah be pleased with them all.
The third way to victory is to be always on the alert so that the enemy cannot deceive us. We are to bear always in mind the hadith: War is deceit. We should also remember always that our enemy is treacherous and may use every cunning way to dominate us. Hence, we are to take into consideration Allahs words: Obey Allah and obey the Messenger, and beware
(Al-Maidah: 92) and Those who disbelieve long for you to neglect your arms and your baggage that they may attack you once for all
(An-Nisa: 102) We are also to take into account the Hadith: The best among people is the one who holds the reins of his horse (ever ready to march) in the cause of Allah, flies on its back whenever he hears a fearful shriek or a call for help, flies to it, seeking death at places where it can be expected.
The fourth way to victory is to be ready to take prompt action on hearing the call to jihad to fight against the enemies, without delay or recoil from participating in fighting. Allah says: O ye who believe! What aileth you that when it is said unto you: Go forth in the way of Allah, ye are bowed down to the ground with heaviness. Take ye pleasure in the life of the world rather than in the Hereafter? The comfort of the life of the world is but little in the Hereafter. (At-Tawbah: 38-39)
The fifth way is to unite, join hands with one another, obey the Muslim leader, keep the order, and face the enemy courageously and steadfastly. Almighty Allah says: O ye who believe! When ye meet an army, hold firm and think of Allah much, that ye may be successful. And obey Allah and His Messenger, and dispute not one with another lest ye falter and your strength depart from you; but be steadfast! Lo! Allah is with the steadfast. (Al-Anfal: 45-46) and Lo! Allah loveth those who battle for His cause in ranks, as if they were a solid structure. (As-Saff: 4)
The sixth way is to fight sincerely in Allahs cause, which includes fighting to defend ones freedom, honor, dignity, homeland, family, sacred places, property. Allahs Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is reported to have said: By He in Whose Hands Muhammads soul is, he who fights against them (the enemies) today patiently and courageously for Allahs sake and is killed (while doing so), Allah will admit him into Paradise. He (peace and blessings be upon him) also said: He who is killed while protecting his property is a martyr; and he who is killed while defending his family or his blood or his religion is a martyr.
The seventh way to victory is to have sincere wish and enthusiasm to participate in jihad in Allahs cause till we either gain victory or are martyred, depending heart and soul on Allah, after taking all preparations in that regard. Almighty Allah says: Say: Naught befalleth us save that which Allah hath decreed for us. He is our protecting Friend. In Allah let believers put their trust! Say: Can ye await for us aught save one of two good things (death or victory in Allah's way )? while we await for you that Allah will afflict you with a doom from Him or at our hands. Await then! Lo! we are awaiting with you. (At-Tawbah: 51-52)
These are the true ways that can bring about victory. It is not beyond Allahs power to bestow on the true believers, who fight sincerely in His cause, resounding victory.
and in that day believers will rejoice in Allah's help to victory. He helpeth to victory whom He will. He is the Mighty, the Merciful. (Ar-Rum: 4-5)

And sometimes I get a good laugh out of them.
Dear scholars, As-Salamu `alaykum. My son bought a house with his money. Then, he rented this house and bought another house through a bank dealing in interest. Even though I told him it is haram, he took out the bank loan that entails interest. So, I disavowed him, and I do not speak with him any more. Should I reconcile myself with him? Jazakum Allahu khayran.

'We Need People Who are Capable of Fearlessly acknowledging that Terrorism Nests within Us'
MEMRI ^ | September 22, 2004 | Mundir Badr Haloum
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1223104/posts
Posted on 09/21/2004 10:28:06 PM CDT by Stoat
Syrian Professor: 'We Need People Who are Capable of Fearlessly Acknowledging that Terrorism Nests within Us as Muslims and that We Must Exorcise It'
Mundir Badr Haloum, a lecturer at a Syrian University, wrote a column in the Lebanese daily Al-Safir stating that Muslims today are responsible for terrorism around the globe, and calling for Islamic religious reform in order to bring Muslims back onto the stage of history not through suicide attacks, but rather by other means. The following are excerpts from the column: [1]
'Ignominious Terrorism Exists, and One Cannot but Acknowledge its Being Islamic'
"Twelve Nepalese citizens are slaughtered Islam. A metro station is bombed Islam. Civilian aircraft crash Islam. A school is taken and the souls of 50 children [are lost] for the soul of [each] terrorist Islam. A bus is bombed here, a railway train there, and before that there were hospitals and theaters, etc
all of them Islamic acts. [Behind] the color green are exposed rivers red with blood, flowing in the streets and public squares. And Muslims everywhere.
"Islam is in the names of all of the organizations that decapitate using knives, all the while saying the Fatiha [the first chapter of the Koran, said as a prayer] before the slaughter. The victims are butchered in the Islamic way
Christians, Buddhists, and Jews
After all, they are only infidels, fuel for the blaze, enemies, or potential enemies, or the friends of enemies, or their neighbors, and so on. The soul has no value and the body parts are laid out and displayed on the tables of Islam
Islam
Islam. The Islamic press searches for something that will absolve 'Islam' of the crimes of the Shahada [martyrdom]
It is Islam that adorns television screens with body parts
Islam whether those who praise its mercies like it or not is the foul odor of the putrefaction of Islamic history and its stench, as well as [being] other things that are honorable, which some people like and others do not
Immigrants Raise Voices for Democracy(Mid Eastern American Convention for Freedom and Democracy)

Immigrants raise voices for democracy
Oct. 10, 2004
Since World War II, nearly every Middle Eastern nation has been under the smothering vise of ruthless tyrants, autocrats and monarchs.
Only since 9/11 has American foreign policy begun to show it understands there is a definite connection between Middle Eastern despotism and Islamo-fascist terrorism.
Yet, the ones most familiar with these systemic human rights abuses in the Middle East have been silent for years. Those Americans who escaped Middle Eastern tyranny during the last 40 years have until now been incomprehensibly silent.
Sept. 11, 2001 woke up America to the dangers of theocracy and despotism in the Middle East. It has also awakened the slumbering community of Middle Eastern immigrants.
The reasons for our past silence are manifold. Some Middle Eastern Americans have feared retribution to family in their ancestral lands. Some fear for their own safety. But many have simply not seen any viable alternative to the secular dictatorships, because the Islamo-fascists are waiting in the wings.....

Allah or Jesus? by Rick Mathews
No matter what the Islamic say, we don't worship the same God.
Last month I attended my annual training session that's required for
maintaining my state prison security clearance. During the training session
there was a presentation by three speakers representing the Roman Catholic,
Protestant and Muslim faiths, who explained each of their belief systems.
I was particularly interested in what the Islamic Imam had to say. The Imam
gave a great presentation of the basics of Islam, complete with a video.
After the presentations, time was provided for questions and answers.
When it was my turn, I directed my question to the Imam and asked: "Please,
correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that most Imams and clerics of
Islam have declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the infidels of the
world. And, that by killing an infidel, which is a command to all Muslims,
they are assured of a place in heaven. If that's the case, can you give me
the definition of an infidel?"
There was no disagreement with my statements and, without hesitation, he
replied, "Non-believers!"
I responded, "So, let me make sure I have this straight. All followers of
Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith so they
can go to Heaven. Is that correct?"
The _expression on his face changed from one of authority and command to
that of a little boy who had just gotten caught with his hand in the cookie
jar. He sheepishly replied, "Yes."
I then stated, "Well, sir, I have a real problem trying to imagine Pope John
Paul commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith or Dr. Stanley
ordering Protestants to do the same in order to go to Heaven!"
The Imam was speechless.
I continued, "I also have problem with being your friend when you and your
brother clerics are telling your followers to kill me. Let me ask you a
question. Would you rather have your Allah who tells you to kill me in order
to go to Heaven or my Jesus who tells me to love you because I am going to
Heaven and He wants you to be with me?"
You could have heard a pin drop as the Imam hung his head in shame.
Needless to say, the organizers and/or promoters of the 'Diversification'
training seminar were not happy with Rick's way of dealing with the Islamic
Imam and exposing the truth about the Muslim's beliefs.
I think everyone in the US should be required to read this, but with the
liberal justice system, liberal media, and the ACLU, there is no way this
will be widely publicized. Please pass this on to all your email contacts.
This is a true story and the author,
Rick Mathews, is a well known leader in prison ministry.
