What is Dar Al-Harb (4) One of the brothers writes: a s-Salaamu Alaikum, Indeed, this is a very true post. I have tried so many times to explain to brothers that no matter what you do, if the Muslim Ummah desired to and they were really in a position of full imaan, there is no way these rulers could have any power over us in any manner. It has been difficult, for these brothers have called to constant violence and the like, but it has not succeeded. We have the re-emergence of the Khawaarij in Algeria with the murder of children, the situation in Egypt and so many other countries. If we just took one example from history, it would suffice. When the Tatars sacked Baghdaad, for years the `ulama were calling to repentance and tawba and not jihaad. It was not until the 4th year that the serious call for jihaad went out. The same was the case with the conquering of Jerusalem by the Crusaders, the calling to repentance was paramount. Then there was the return of the khilaafa and all of these things. And this was when Islam was at its' peak. Now somehow, we think that in the 21st century jaahiliyyah we have a different recipe that will work for the Ummah. Allah reward you for the article. was-Salaam, Brother in Islam |
