Gangguan mistik dalam perjalanan ?


Solat hajat diadakan semalam bagi mendoakan keselamatan pengguna lebuh raya LPT2.

BAGI mana-mana masyarakat termasuklah orang Melayu, cerita-cerita mistik adalah sesuatu lumrah dan amat diminati. Tetapi jika ia dikaitkan dengan sesuatu yang menyebabkan kematian maka ia menjadi sesuatu yang bertambah nilai kegerunan.

Isu kalimah Allah

Kecoh, terguris bila aku dengar keputusan mahkamah - kesemua hakimnya adalah bukan Islam - yang membenarkan penggunaan kalimah Allah oleh penerbitan Kristian.
Semua orang sekarang tengah sibuk list down kan punca dan cara penyelesaian masalah itu.  
Ada yang berpendapat:
1-politik melayu lemah, melayu pecah belah
2-mana peranan raja?
3-mahkamah tak adil
4-politikus mula menikus
5-..... etc

Pendapat aku, nombor 1 - 4 ialah akibat manakala punca masalah ini adalah kerana rata-rata umat Islam sudah tinggalkan kerja dakwah dan tidak jadikan dakwah sebagai maksud hidup.
Antara contoh mudah, bagaimana umat Islam hendak mempertahankan kalimah Allah, sedangkan bila azan yang melaungkan kalimah Allah Maha Besar, umat Islam sendiri buat tak dengar, tak dituruti, tak hormati, kalau faham tentu lah masjid penuh solat berjemaah.
Dalam perintah Allah yang lain atau amalan sunah Nabi SAW, kita boleh lihat bagaimana sikap umat Islam.
Umat Islam menjadi lemah kerana lemah mengamalkan agama. Lemah mengamalkan agama kerana lemah iman.
Kerja kita usaha tingkatkan iman, untuk tingkatkan amal, tingkatkan agama.
Salah siapa? salah saya... belum jadikan dakwah maksud hidup. Istighfar.

Pertanyaan daging korban

Gambar hiasan

Dalam sehari dua ini, ada beberapa kawan-kawan pejabat dan di luar pejabat yang bertanya kepada aku soalan yang sama. Ada juga saudara mara yang bertanya.
Yang peliknya, walaupun orang berlainan, berasal dari negeri berbeza tetapi soalan tetap sama. Seolah-olah persoalan ini berlegar-legar dalam masyarakat. (Diharap tidak, kerana ia dianggap perkara basic oleh sesetengah pihak). Hikmahnya, soalan-soalan itu membuatkan aku lebih teliti dan terus bertanya kepada yang ahli.
Soalannya berbunyi lebih kurang begini:

SOALAN 1
Kawan: Daging korban, orang yang buat korban tu boleh makan ke tidak?
Aku: Siapa cakap tak boleh makan?
Kawan: Dengar ada orang cakap tak boleh.
Aku: Main dengar-dengar (hearsay) ni lah yang payah ni.


SOALAN 2
Kawan: Daging Aqiqah tak boleh beri bukan Islam, daging korban boleh ke tidak? Tulang daging aqiqah ditanam, tulang korban macam mana?
Aku jawap: tulang korban buat sup gear box sedap.


SOALAN 3
Saudara mara kata: "Orang nak korban seekor lembu, tapi AJK masjid suruh ikut bahagian yang dibahagi kepada 7 bahagian. Mana lebih baik? Tak boleh ke seekor terus?"

Sebelum mengulas lanjut, perlu dinyatakan di sini bahawa aku bukan 'ostat' ataupun ustaz, walaupun nampak macammm osstaatt baru nak start.
Yang kedua, persoalan fiqh adalah daerah yang perlu berhati-hati. (Bayangkan kalau tersalah, lalu orang mengikut perkara yang tersalah itu, siapa nak tanggung tu?).
Jadi, yang terbaik jika ada kemusykilan, adalah lebih baik saudara saudari pergi berjumpa dan merujuk sendiri kepada ustaz-ustaz dan guru agama yang
mursyid. Dapat jumpa face to face lagi baik.
Bagaimanapun, untuk tidak menghampakan 'penyoal' tadi dan mengelakkan kekeliruan berlarutan berlegar di kepala jemala mereka, maka terpaksa jugak dijelaskan secara ringkas mengenai soalan itu (sikit je) selepas aku merujuk lanjut (utk lebih berhati-hati) kepada seorang ustaz yang 'berpangkalan' di Kubang Bujuk. Beliau merujuk terus kepada kitab asal dan menterjemahkannya dari bahasa Arab kepada Melayu satu persatu kepada aku.
Kitab yang dimaksudkan ialah kitab Mahalli karangan Syeikh Jalauddin Muhammad bin Ahmad al-Mahalli merupakan syarah kepada kitab Minhajut Tholibin karangan Imam Nawawi. (Mahalli adalah antara kitab syarah yang tertinggi dalam mazhab Syafie rah.)
Dan tujuan menulis secara ringkas di sini, semoga, ia dapat memberi manfaat kepada aku (iaitu direkodkan dlm catatan di sini) dan sesiapa sahaja boleh mengambil manfaat daripadanya jika mahu, insya-Allah.

JAWAPAN SOALAN 1
Disebut dalam kitab itu:
1) Qaul pertama, ialah orang yang membuat korban boleh memakan satu pertiga (1/3) daripada daging yang dia korbankan, yang baki disedekahkan.
2) Qaul kedua, ialah orang yang membuat korban boleh memakan separuh (1/2) daripada daging yang dia korbankan, yang baki disedekahkan.
3) Qaul ketiga, ialah orang yang membuat korban boleh memakan 1/3 daging korban manakala 1/3 lagi disedekah dan 1/3 lagi dihadiahkan.
Disebut juga, daging korban boleh diberikan kepada orang kaya tetapi dengan syarat tidak boleh bagi milik, yakni hanya boleh untuk sekadar dimakan si kaya itu tetapi tidak boleh dijual dan sebagainya.
Daging korban yang disedekahkan kepada orang miskin, terserah kepada orang miskin itu untuk dibuat apapun.
Walau bagaimanapun, kesimpulannya:
1) Wajib mensedekahkan sebahagian daripada daging korban itu.
2) Yang paling afdhal ialah mensedekahkan semuanya kecuali satu suap untuk dimakan oleh orang yang mengorbankan daging itu bagi mengambil berkat. Satu suap itu disunatkan kerana Nabi Muhammad SAW berbuat demikian.
3) Sedekah daging ini hanya daging manakala kulit dan tanduk tidak termasuk.
4) Hukum membuat korban adalah sunatun mustahabatun (sunat yang digalakkan) dan satu lagi Qaul, hukumnya adalah sunat muakad (sunat yang ditekankan).

JAWAPAN SOALAN 2
Daging Aqiqah dan korban sama sekali tidak boleh diberikan orang kafir.
Tulang aqiqah ditanam, tulang daging korban tak perlu ditanam.
Pembahagian daging aqiqah adalah sama seperti daging korban sebagaimana di atas.
Perbezaan lain antara daging aqiqah dengan daging korban pula tentu sudah sedia maklum dan diketahui umum maka tidak perlu dinyatakan lagi.

JAWAPAN SOALAN 3
Korban yang afdhol mengikut turutan keutamaan, untuk korban:
1) Paling afdhol seorang buat korban seekor unta;
2) seorang buat korban seekor lembu;
3) seorang buat korban seekor kambing;
4) tujuh orang buat korban tujuh ekor kambing masing-masing
5) tujuh orang buat korban seekor lembu yang dikongsi kepada tujuh bahagian. (yang ini banyak dilakukan di masjid-masjid di Malaysia).
(Maknanya, dari segi keutamaan, yang no. 1 lebih afdhal dari no. 2, yang no.2 lebih afdhal dari no.3, yang no.3 lebih afdhal dari no. 4, yang no. 4 lebih afdhal dari no. 5)

Sekian, waallahualam bissawab
Info tambahan:
**Pagi tadi, duduk bayan suboh malam markas, semasa bayan, pembayan memberitahu, beliau telah bermuzakarah dengan Imam Besar Masjid Sri Petaling dan maulana itu memberitahu, umat Islam di Malaysia disunnahkan mengikut mazhab Syafie.

Alhijrah tahun depan disokong

Ingat tak, dulu kita pernah bincangkan soal TV dlm blog ni dalam posting di sini dan di sini. Rata-rata bersetuju bahawa siaran TV di negara kita ni agak merbahaya terutama kepada anak-anak kita jika ia tidak dikawal.
Mungkin pertimbangan stesen TV adalah antara soal profit iaitu disebabkan hendak menghidangkan rancangan yang menarik untuk menarik penonton hingga sanggup mengetepikan soal moral dan nilai-nilai agama.
Memang ada rancangan yang ok, tapi banyak yang tak ok. Itu lah antara kesimpulan yang boleh dipersetujui semasa berbincang dalam bab ini pada posting lepas.
Justeru, rancangan kerajaan untuk mewujudkan Stesen TV Alhijrah adalah amat dialu-alukan. Secara umumnya idea untuk itu adalah baik, sekurang-kurangnya keluarga Islam ada alternatif untuk menonton. Walaupun sebenarnya, kalau boleh hidup tanpa TV agaknya lebih baik, tapi realiti sekarang ia amat sukar dilakukan bahkan kalau ada yang berjaya berbuat demikian tentu lah boleh dibilang dengan jari jumlahnya.
Apapun, berita Siaran TV Alhijrah mula tahun depan amat disokong dan dialu-alukan demi kebaikan masyarakat Islam negara ini.
Lebih parah sekarang ni masyarakat dah tak dapat dinafikan menuju ke arah hedonisme, bersuka ria semata-mata dalam pelbagai sudut kehidupan.
Bagaimanapun, kita tunggu dan lihat lah bagaimana pengisian TV itu nanti, kalau ia diselitkan dengan unsur politik kepartian maka sudah tentu ia tak mencapai maksud. Sewajarnya ia perlu menjadi stesen yang tulus mulus, ikhlas dan benar-benar dapat membantu masyarakat Islam dalam pelbagai sudut terutama dalam pendidikan.
Apapun kita tunggu dan lihat lah bila beroperasi tahun depan. Sebenarnya, lebih cepat lebih baik.


Siaran TV Alhijrah mula tahun depan
PUTRAJAYA 20 Nov. - Saluran televisyen Islam pertama negara, TV Alhijrah dijangka memulakan siarannya pada pertengahan tahun depan.
Menteri di Jabatan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Jamil Khir Baharom bagaimanapun berkata, Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak akan menyempurnakan majlis prapelancaran TV Alhijrah lebih awal iaitu pada hujung tahun ini.
Beliau berkata, rancangan TV Alhijrah sesuai ditonton oleh seisi keluarga tanpa mengira latar belakang agama penontonnya.

Qaradawi shocked by the ban of niqab, purdah

Students of Al-Azhar University wearing niqab to class.
.
By now, almost everyone has heard of the recent statement by Sheikh al-Azhar Sayyid Muhammad Tantawi regarding the banning of purdah or niqab. It has caused a great shock not only to the ordinary muslims but also to the ulamas. Below is Yusof al-Qaradawi's latest statement concerning this issue where he expressed his shock with the ban of niqab. He said:
"No Muslim scholar, whether among the predecessors or contemporary scholars, has ever been reported to have regarded wearing niqab as forbidden except in the case of ihram for women. The scholarly difference regarding the issue of niqab is only over whether it is obligatory, recommendable, or merely permissible.
Thus it is untenable that a Muslim jurist would regard niqab as prohibited or even merely undesirable in Islam. Hence, I was really shocked to learn that the writer Baha' published an opinion attributed to some Al-Azhar scholars to the effect that they believe that veiling the woman's face falls under prohibiting what Almighty Allah has originally permitted. In fact, the advocates of this view cannot be said to be of firm knowledge about the Qur'an or the Sunnah or fiqh
."


Qaradawi's full statement as below:
(source http://www.islamonline.net/)


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.
.
There is an opinion that niqab is a bid`ah that is alien to Muslims and that it has nothing at all to do with the religion of Islam, having penetrated Muslim society during the ages of extreme deterioration. This is neither a scientific nor an objective view. It is an oversimplification of the issue, which deviates people from scrutinizing the subject as it really is.
Any person learned about the sources of knowledge and scholarly views cannot argue about the issue being controversial among scholars. I mean here the issue of whether it is permissible to uncover the woman's face or whether it is obligatory to veil it and the hands too.
Muslim scholars of the predecessors — including jurists, exegetes of the Qur'an, and scholars of Hadith — have differed over this issue. Their difference was due to their various understandings and attitudes towards the religious texts about the subject at hand, especially that there is no definitive clear-cut text about it. Had there been any, there would have been no scholarly difference regarding it.
Among the texts they have differed over is this Qur'anic verse: [ And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their zeenah (charms, or beauty and ornaments) except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof] (An-Nur 24:31).
Ibn Mas`ud was reported to have said while commenting on this verse, "[Except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof] here refers to the clothes and cloaks (women are wearing)." This means the outer garments that cannot be hidden.
Ibn `Abbas was also reported to have said while explaining this verse, "[Except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof] refers to kohl and rings." A similar view was also reported to have been adopted by Anas ibn Malik and `A'ishah. Sometimes Ibn `Abbas would add to "kohl and rings" "henna with which hands are tinted, bracelets, earrings, and necklaces." He might even refer tozeenah as the places where ornaments are worn, by saying "the face and palms of the hands." This was also reported to have been the opinion of Sa`id ibn Jubair, `Atta', and others.
Some scholars also included part of the woman's arm in what is referred to by [what (must ordinarily) appear thereof].
Furthermore, Ibn `Attiyah explained these words by saying that they refer to the parts of the woman's body that are unintentionally unveiled by means of wind and the like. (See the exegesis of the verse as explained by Ibn Jarir, Ibn Kathir, and Al-Qurtubi; and see also its explanation in Ad-Dur Al-Manthur, vol. 5, pp. 41-42.)
Scholars have also differed concerning the explanation of the words [draw their cloaks close round them] in the verse [O Prophet! Tell thy wives and thy daughters and the women of the believers to draw their cloaks close round them (when they go abroad). That will be better, that so they may be recognized and not annoyed. Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful] (Al-Ahzab 33:59).
Ibn `Abbas was reported to have said, commenting on this verse, an opinion contrary to what he was reported to have expressed as comment on the first verse referred to above! It was also reported that `Ubaidah As-Salmani, one of the Tabi`un (Successors) explained [drawing their cloaks] practically by covering his head and face and unveiling his left eye only. A similar example was also reported to have been set by Muhammad ibn Ka`b Al-Qardhi.
But `Ikrimah, servant of Ibn `Abbas, differed with them, saying "The woman is to cover the unveiled part of her chest by a cloak that she draws round her." Sa`id ibn Jubair said, "It is not permissible for a Muslim woman to be seen by a man lawful for her to marry unless she puts on a face veil in addition to the hijab which extends from her head to her chest." (See Ad-Dur Al-Manthur, vol. 5, pp. 221-222 as well as the sources referred to above for an explanation of the relevant verse.)
As for my point of view on the issue, I see that the woman's face and hands are not part of her `awrah (parts of her body that should not be exposed in public), and hence, it is not obligatory for her to veil them. I also believe that the evidence supporting this opinion is stronger than that supporting the opposite opinion. Many contemporary scholars agree with me in this view, like Nasir Ad-Din Al-Albani (as shown in his book Hijab Al-Mar'ah Al-Muslimah fi Al-Kitab wa As-Sunnah), the majority of the Al-Azhar scholars in Egypt, the scholars of Az-Zaytunah University in Tunisia, the scholars of Al-Qarawiyeen University in Morocco, and many Pakistani, Indian, and Turkish scholars as well as others.
However, it is not right to claim that there is unanimity among contemporary scholars that it is permissible to uncover the Muslim woman's face and hands, as there are many scholars in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, a number of the other Gulf countries, Pakistan, and India, who believe that veiling the woman's face and hands is obligatory. Among them are the late eminent Saudi scholar Sheikh `Abdul-`Aziz ibn Baz, and the late well-known Pakistani scholar Abu Al-A`la Al-Mawdudi (as shown in his book Al-Hijab).
Living contemporary scholars who also believe that veiling the face is obligatory include the famous Syrian writer Dr. Muhammad Sa`id Ramadan Al-Buti, who published a letter in this respect, "To Every Young Woman Who Believes in Almighty Allah." There are also other letters and fatwas published from time to time that condemn women who uncover their faces and adjure them in the name of religion and faith to wear niqab and not to listen to the modern scholars who want to subjugate religion to modernism. The advocates of this view may even refer to me as one of those modern scholars!
But never do I hold that this opinion — that covering the woman's whole body except the face and hands is the obligatory attire for the Muslim woman — be imposed on the woman who believes in the other opinion, according to which veiling the face is obligatory and uncovering it is forbidden. I will only blame the advocates of the latter opinion if they attempt to impose their attitude on the proponents of the former one and accuse them of being sinful and wrongdoers for adopting it. It is agreed upon that, with regard to the controversial issues on which scholars have given different personal legal opinions, there is no blame to be placed on a person for following a certain personal legal opinion to the exclusion of others.
The advocates of my opinion and I, in turn, do not have any right to censure the supporters of the counteropinion for believing thatit is obligatory for women to wear niqab. For, first, this counteropinion is a scholarly one within the framework of Islamic jurisprudence, and, second, had we criticized them, we would have committed a mistake which we are originally against, that is, denying others the right to differ with us.
Moreover, there are some women who see that, to be on the safe side, wearing a face veil is not obligatory, but, rather, desirable, and draws its wearer closer to piety and fear of Allah. There is nothing wrong in so believing, and no one has the right to blame the proponents of this opinion for following it, so long as this would not be of any harm to others or contradict either public or personal interests.
No Muslim scholar, whether among the predecessors or contemporary scholars, has ever been reported to have regarded wearing niqab as forbidden except in the case of ihram for women. The scholarly difference regarding the issue of niqab is only over whether it is obligatory, recommendable, or merely permissible. Thus it is untenable that a Muslim jurist would regard niqab as prohibited or even merely undesirable in Islam. Hence, I was really shocked to learn that the writer Baha' published an opinion attributed to some Al-Azhar scholars to the effect that they believe that veiling the woman's face falls under prohibiting what Almighty Allah has originally permitted. In fact, the advocates of this view cannot be said to be of firm knowledge about the Qur'an or the Sunnah or fiqh.
Suppose even that wearing niqab is merely permissible — as I do myself believe — not obligatory or desirable. Even in such a case, any Muslim woman may wear it, and no one has the right to prevent her from doing so. It is her personal right, and in practicing it she neither falls short of her duties nor causes others harm. Even man-made laws and the conventions of human rights advocate the personal rights of people.
It is ironic that freedom of dress is given to those who choose to uncover parts of their bodies without encountering any objection, while severe censure is launched against the wearers of niqab who consider it a teaching of their religion that they cannot neglect!

Tantawi haramkan purdah
KAHERAH 9 Okt. - Imam besar Mesir, Mohammed Sayyed Tantawi (gambar) berkata, para pelajar dan guru-guru tidak lagi dibenarkan memakai purdah di dalam kelas dan asrama institusi pengajian Islam terulung, al-Azhar sebagai sebahagian daripada usaha kerajaan untuk menangani amalan radikal dalam Islam.
Tantawi yang juga merupakan ketua al-Azhar mengumumkan perkara itu, beberapa hari selepas beliau membuat kenyataan: purdah atau niqab 'tiada kena mengena dengan Islam'.
Tindakan beliau itu telah mencetuskan bantahan kuat daripada golongan yang menganggapnya sebagai satu serangan terhadap Islam serta beberapa pertubuhan hak asasi yang menganggap pengharaman niqab mencabuli kebebasan berperlembagaan.
Isu sebanyak mana tubuh wanita Islam perlu ditutup telah menjadi isu yang kerap dipertikai antara tokoh Islam.

Tantawi digesa letak jawatan
KAHERAH 8 Okt. – Seorang anggota Parlimen pembangkang mendesak ketua sebuah institusi pengajian agama terkenal dalam dunia Islam, Syeikh Mohammed Sayyed Tantawi supaya meletak jawatan selepas beliau mengarahkan seorang pelajar membuka purdah yang dipakainya.
Desakan tersebut dibuat ketika puluhan pelajar yang memakai purdah atau niqab, mengadakan demonstrasi di hadapan Universiti Kaherah, yang mengharamkan purdah di kawasan kampusnya.

Riba Incident - over 20 years ago...
Once he ruled "haram" on "riba", later said the exact same type of transaction was "halal" (permitted).
When asked why he changed his opinion, Dr. Tantawi said, "Riba is a mystery of mysteries surrounding in a mystery"
(Looks like Tantawi is the 'mystery')

Berjayakah Amerika dan Zionis diboikot?

Participation in haraam rallies not permissible

A GOOD friend of mine sent this email to me and I'm totally agree with the content about the issue of rally/demonstration long time ago, even before Gaza strike occured. The original letter as mentioned below:

-----------------message forwarded---------
From: Jamiatul Ulama of South Africa J.U.S.A
Sent: Monday, 12 January, 2009 5:14:35
Subject: Rally, not permissible


15 MUHARRAM 1430 – 12 JANUARY 2009
JAMIATUL ULAMA OF SOUTH AFRICA (JUSA)
.................................................................................
Assalamu Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakaatuhu

Address correspondence in this matter
to our Port Elizabeth address or our e-mail address

PARTICIPATION IN HARAAM RALLIES
NOT PERMISSIBLE

Question
On Wednesday 14 January 2009, a 'mass rally' has been organized to protest against the Israeli massacre of the Muslims of Gaza. The rally will ofcourse be a mixed event of males and females, and of different religions. From the pamphlet being circulated, the person whom The Majlis has dubbed Reverend Abraham will be participating on behalf of Muslims. Is it permissible for Muslims to join this type of rally? (Brother from Gauteng)

Answer
There should be no difficulty for Muslims to understand the impermissibility of participating in the haraam rally. The Reverend Abraham does not represent any segment of the Muslim community since he had reneged from Islam several years ago. Let us therefore not delve on this redundant entity.
Every Muslim with even a little intelligence and a very cursory understanding of Islam knows that this type of rally is haraam for the following three main reasons:
Intermingling of sexes
Interfaith event
Haraam photography

Besides these fundamental haraam elements, there will be considerable drivel and futility taking place. For example, the Reverend Abraham will speak much rubbish in the name of Islam. Such rallies are the methods of non-Muslims. Islamic culture precludes such rallies. Muslims have a Sunnah culture to follow. The ways and methods of non-Muslims suit them. Their methodology and culture are inappropriate for Muslims, in fact haraam.
There is no ambiguity in Islamic teaching. The Qur'aan commands greater Inaabat illallah (turning to Allah Ta'ala in repentance, obedience and supplication) in times of calamity and disaster. Thus, when Bani Israaeel complained to Nabi Musaa (alayhis salaam) about the persecution, torture and their massacre by Fir'oun, the Nabi of Allah did not organize a futile, stupid rally at which toothless resolutions are passed and hollow slogans clamoured to the satisfaction of the participants – Full of sound and fury, signifying nothing – absolutely nothing. What Hadhrat Musa (alayhis salaam) did, was to instruct his people:
"Seek aid from Allah and adopt Sabr. Verily, the earth belongs
to Allah. He grants its sovereignty to whomever He wishes, and
the ultimate victorious end is for the Muttaqeen."
In Islam there are only two ways: (1) If Muslims have power and the capability, then Jihad.(2) In the absence of such capability, are only Sabr (patience) and Dua (supplication). The solution for Gaza is the Battlefield, not shouting slogans and prancing like monkeys in streets thousands of miles away from the arena of the massacre.
Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) has warned us that when the Ummah turns its back to Allah Ta'ala, then He will appoint brutal enemies (such as the Israeli murderers) to dominate and brutalize us. Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: "They (the appointed barbarians) will show no respect for your elders and no mercy for your little ones. (At that time when the
massacring is taking place), your pious people (your Buzroogs) will supplicate to Allah for aid, but their duas will be rejected." In other words, the Divine Athaab will run its full course.
While our hearts cry and while we have to supplicate to Allah Ta'ala for succour and to save the Gaza Muslims from this horrendous punishment which has befallen them, and while we should assist them financially to the best of our ability, we should not deny the reality which Allah Ta'ala and Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) had announced to us. The reality is that what is happening today in Gaza is Allah's Decree which no one can thwart. No about of stupid and hollow howling and pretentious and preposterous slogans will avail. Nothing will save the Ummah, but Nusrat-e-Ilaahi (Divine Aid), and this in turn pivots on Inaabat Ilallaah.
Muslims are required to make dua – much dua, individually and in seclusion – in the dark hours of the night and early morning (Tahajjud time). Supplicate to Allah Ta'ala to destroy the Israeli Butcher whose products SANHA has made 'halaal'. Make dua and implore Allah Ta'ala to save the Gaza Muslims from two oppressions: (1) The oppression of the Israeli Butcher, and (2) Their own oppression on their own souls –the oppression which they inflict on themselves with their total transgression and abandonment of the Deen.
It is only when Muslims understand the causes for them having become the scum of mankind, will their eyes open and a new lease of honourable life will begin with sincere Inaabat Ilallaah.
"If you aid (the Deen of) Allah, He will aid you
and plant your feet firmly." (Qur'aan)

PARTICIPATION IN THE HARAAM RALLY IS HARAAM.
