[2] Fighting extremism with extreme negligence! Ed Husain’s Distractive Ruse

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Allaah [The Exalted] said:

وَمَآ أَرۡسَلۡنَا مِن قَبۡلِكَ مِن رَّسُولٍ۬ وَلَا نَبِىٍّ إِلَّآ إِذَا تَمَنَّىٰٓ أَلۡقَى ٱلشَّيۡطَـٰنُ فِىٓ أُمۡنِيَّتِهِۦ فَيَنسَخُ ٱللَّهُ مَا يُلۡقِى ٱلشَّيۡطَـٰنُ ثُمَّ يُحۡڪِمُ ٱللَّهُ ءَايَـٰتِهِۦ‌ۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ۬

Never did We send a Messenger or a Prophet before you, but; when he did recite the revelation or narrated or spoke, Shaitan (Satan) threw (some falsehood) in it. But Allah abolishes that which Shaitan (Satan) throws in. Then Allah establishes His Revelations. And Allah is All-Knower, All-Wise: [Surah al-Hajj. Aayah 52]

Ed Husain uttered the phrase “Private faith and secular government” after referring to a taxi driver who was observed praying in public. However, if not specifically and clearly stated, this generalisation could be interpreted incorrectly. First of all, the taxi driver’s Sujood to Allah is praiseworthy, but more specificity is needed on the statement regarding secular government and private religion because if Ed Husain wants to laud secularism or suggests that separating religion and government is admirable, that is unquestionably a grave crime in the Sight of the Lord of the Worlds.

What is Secularism? Secularism is the belief that religion should not be involved with the ordinary social and political activities of a country. (1) Therefore, this definition establishes the idea that there should be separation between “State and Religion” or between “Siyaasah and Religion”. What is Siyaasah? It refers to governing citizen issues. It has control over both the behaviours of the individual and the entire society. It involves Islamic jurisprudence through which the rulers are provided with knowledge and comprehension of the laws connected to managing the affairs of the state, its structures, and Shariah principles. (2)

Imaam Muhammad Ibn Saaleh Al-Uthaymeen [may Allaah have mercy upon him] said: The idea behind the phrase “Separation between religion and Siyaasah” is that the ruler is free to act however he sees fit in order to carry out his duties, regardless of whether his actions are in accordance with Shariah or not; or even if what he does is dictated by the religion, as the purpose of separation is to distinguish between and define two things. Because of this, even if it conflicts with Shariah, the ruler considers what he perceives to be advantageous. This is unquestionably a false and sinful statement because the religion itself is Siyaasah and Siyaasah is the religion. However, when we use the term Siyaasah, we refer to Siyaasah that is founded on equity rather than oppression (i.e. under the jurisdiction of the infallible Shariah).

Islam’s goal is to rectify people’s relationships with one another and their behaviours towards their Lord. It establishes the rights of Allah and the people, as well as rights for wives, parents, and other relatives. Islam even granted non-Muslims rights that are well-known among scholars. It outlined the terms and procedures for making peace and waging war, as well as the penalties for crimes, some of which are governed by specific texts and others by the ruler’s discretion. This plainly demonstrates that Islam is Siyaasah in its totality. The word “Siyaasah” derives from the word “Saa’is,” which refers to the person who is in charge of taking care of an animal’s needs and warding off threats to their wellbeing. We discover this meaning when we reflect on affairs of the religion of Islam, and that Allah has prescribed for His servants those things without which people cannot establish (a fruitful, stable, orderly, safe) life, and has forbidden those things that will corrupt their state of affairs, whether they affect everyone or just certain people. Consequently, Siyaasah constitutes the entirety of the religion. And we are certain that anyone who isolates Siyaasah from the Religion and builds Siyaasah on what he deems appropriate and what he forbids, then his Siyaasah is undoubtedly corrupt and it will do more harm than good. If it rectifies a matter in accordance with his constrained opinions, it will undoubtedly corrupt things significantly from a different perspective.

This makes it necessary for one to reflect on the situation of those who base their Siyaasah on their desires and opinions and distanced themselves from the religion of Islam. After reflecting, one will discover that either all or most of their Siyaasah is corrupt, and that even when it corrects a situation from one angle, it corrupts it from another. Consequently, based on this, it is required of the person seeking to make amends for himself and others to only do so in accordance with the religion of Islaam. Separating Siyaasah and Religion is a wicked deed. (3)

Our Responsibilities Whilst Living in a Society That Rules By Secular Laws

Shaikh Abdul Waahid Abu Khadeejah [may Allaah preserve him] said: Although Muslims in Britain are subject to British law and the British legal system, Sharī’ah tribunals are allowed in certain areas as an alternative way of resolving disputes. These are aimed at resolving commercial, civil and matrimonial disputes to the satisfaction of both sides. Sharī’ah Law is based upon the Qur’ān and Sunnah, and judgements are made in accordance to these two sources. Only those well-versed with the Religion and jurisprudence (rulings in law) are permitted to judge in Sharī’ah matters. Read more here:  https://www.abukhadeejah.com/educate-yourself-ethics-1-2-shariah-redstone-academy/

One must be fully aware of this reality and maintain a safe distance from Takfeeris and terrorists. The requirement that we protect the lives and safety of our non-Muslim neighbours and uphold our covenants must be given special consideration. Imaam Muhammad Ibn Saaleh Al-Uthaymeen [may Allaah have mercy upon him] stated: Likewise I invite you to have respect for those people who have the right that they should be respected, from those between you and whom there is an agreement (of protection) [i.e. Non-Muslims]. For the land which you are living is such that there is an agreement between you and them. If this were not the case they would have killed you or expelled you. So preserve this agreement, and do not prove treacherous to it, since treachery is a sign of the hypocrites, and it is not from the way of the Believers.

And know that it is authentically reported from the Prophet that he said : “Whoever kills one who is under an agreement of protection will not smell the fragrance of Paradise.”

Do not be fooled by those sayings of the foolish people: those who say: ‘Those people are Non-Muslims, so their wealth is lawful for us [i.e. to misappropriate or take by way of murder and killing].’ For by Allah – this is a lie. A lie about Allaah’s Religion, and a lie in Islamic societies.

O my brothers. O youth. O Muslims. Be truthful in your buying and selling, and renting, and leasing, and in all mutual transactions. Because truthfulness is from the characteristics of the Believers, and Allah – the Most High – has commanded truthfulness – in the saying of Allah – the Most High – “O you who believe – fear and keep you duty to Allah and be with the truthful.”

And the Prophet encouraged truthfulness and said : “Adhere to truthfulness, because truthfulness leads to goodness, and goodness leads to Paradise; and a person will continue to be truthful, and strive to be truthful until he will be written down with Allah as a truthful person“.

And he warned against falsehood, and said : “Beware of falsehood, because falsehood leads to wickedness, and wickedness leads to the Fire. And a person will continue lying, and striving to lie until he is written down with Allah as a great liar.”

O my brother Muslims. O youth. Be true in your sayings with your brothers, and with those Non-Muslims whom you live along with – so that you will be inviters to the Religion of Islam, by your actions and in reality. So how many people there are who first entered into Islam because of the behaviour and manners of the Muslims, and their truthfulness, and their being true in their dealings. (4)

Indeed, either Ed Husain lacks the ability to provide specifics or he consciously wants to spread ambiguity. In fact, his quest for so-called moderation after leaving his prior misguided sect (Hizb tahreer) has lead him to even more misguidance rather than any benefit from his remarks. He must refrain from speaking.

Imaam Ibnul Qayyim [may Allah have mercy upon him] said: “It is obligated to you to provide specifics and draw distinctions since vague, unclarified (statements) have in fact corrupted this existence (i.e. the world) and led people’s minds and worldviews astray in every era”. Al-Allaamah Saalih Al-Fawzaan [may Allah preserve him] said: “The person who lacks the ability to provide specifics should keep quiet because his speech does not yield any benefit. And every time a mistake occurs, it is the result of a lack of a thorough explanation of what is true and what is untrue. Detailed explanation and distinction must be made in order to avoid confusion. Indeed, it may be that an opponent’s statement contains both truth and falsehood, therefore it can’t be assumed that it’s entirely true or false; instead, there needs to be a distinction made between its truth and falsehood. The entirety of it is neither rejected nor accepted; rather, a distinction is established between the truth and the right and the false and error in it. Furthermore, you shouldn’t enter in this affair if you are not good at providing details”. (5)

[1] Fighting extremism with extreme negligence! Ed Husain’s Distractive Ruse

In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful.

Allah [The Exalted] said:

وَلَا تَرْكَنُوا إِلَى الَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا فَتَمَسَّكُمُ النَّارُ وَمَا لَكُم مِّن دُونِ اللَّهِ مِنْ أَوْلِيَاءَ ثُمَّ لَا تُنصَرُونَ

And incline not toward those who do wrong, lest the Fire should touch you, and you have no protectors other than Allah, nor you would then be helped. (Hud: 113)

Al-Allaamah Rabee Bin Haadi Al-Mad’khali [may Allah preserve him] said: Do not incline towards those who oppress the people through murder, bloodshed, theft, and violating their honour; or oppress people in religious affairs through innovated religious practices and other forms of misguidance, as well as through calls that are anti-Islamic and dangerous propaganda. Do not incline towards anyone who fits this description. Don’t support him or help him spread his falsehood. This verse includes all of these types (of oppressors) and all advocates of religious innovation. [An Excerpt from Al-Wasaayaa Al-Manhajiyyah Page 20]

In spite of the fact that Ed Husain claims to be battling extremism and deradicalising extremists in the name of Islam, his words and convictions make it quite evident that he is actually using this fight against extremism as a cover to promote heretical philosophical paths. There is no question that a person who chooses such a course will retain animosity against those who adhere to the sound Salafi Methodology. He jumped from the frying pan and leaped into the fire; he was opposed to Salafiyyah while he was associated with the Khaarijites of Hizb at-Tahreer, and he is now opposed to Salafiyyah while associated with philosophers. In one of his replies to extremists, he said, “There are many such lessons of compassion, kindness, and care in the life of the Prophet that are airbrushed by today’s fanatics. The bigotry of the Salafi jihadis can only be challenged and eventually uprooted by educating them on the Prophet of Islam described in the Qur’an “as a mercy to the worlds”. Many in the world today would be rightly asking “Where is this mercy?” For what we see is beheadings, wars, and suicide bombings in the name of religion. Sadly, we will continue to witness such evil unless we address the motivations of the Salafi jihadist killers. They kill in the name of religion; we cannot respond by citing the virtues of Darwin, secularism, and materialism. The only language these radicals understand is that of religion. It is by mustering the best of religion that we defeat the worst of It”. [End of quote]

By claiming that there is a group that should be classified as “Salafi Jihadists” in the aforementioned statement, he attempts to misrepresent Salafiyyah. Given that the Salafi Methodology is free of the Bidah and destructive methodologies of the Jihadists and all other proponents of Bidah, including Ed Husain and his associates, this is a very serious accusation. Read the article titled “A response to Western academics who categorise Salafis into Quietists, Politicos, and Jihadists – and why this is a false categorisation” by Shaikh Abu Khadeeja- May Allah preserve him. https://abukhadeejah.com/a-response-to-western-academics-who-categorise-salafis-into-quietists-politicos-and-jihadists-and-why-this-is-a-false-categorisation/

Also, see the article titled “Salafi Shaikh Fawzaan on Jihad in our times and the guidelines of Jihad according to Islam”:https://abukhadeejah.com/salafi-shaikh-fawzaan-on-jihaad-in-our-times-and-the-guidelines-of-jihaad-according-to-islam/

Ed currently favours philosophy, the appeal for the unity of religions and other false views. InShaaAllaah, future postings will discuss these topics. The knowledge of this man’s previous and present circumstances—from hizb tahreer to philosophy, from one bidah to another—is actually sufficient to understand his misguidance. After previously concentrating on radicalism, he is now considering extreme neglect to be moderation. Al-Allaamah Rabee Bin Haadi Al-Mad’khali [may Allah preserve him] said: “Shaikhul Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah (may Allaah have mercy upon him) said that in their quest for knowledge and religion, people have two innovated paths and one that is prescribed by the Shari’ah. The path of the Shariah is to look at what the Messenger conveyed, use it as evidence, and do what it requires; consequently, knowledge based on what he brought and doing what it requires is both necessary and doing just one of these is insufficient. The Messenger clarified the sound intellectual proofs, whose bounds are set by the (infallible) divine texts, and the Messengers clarified the sound rational proofs that the people are in need of, just as Allaah presented every kind of similitude in the Qur’an, so this path is built upon sound intellectual proofs and sound rational proofs that are based on absolute certainty (in accordance with revelation as understood and implemented by the Messenger’s companions). Allah commanded His servants to ask Him to guide them to this straight path”. [end of quote] (1)

Pay special attention to what comes next since it reveals Ed Husain’s current situation, which is as follows: “Regarding the two innovated paths, one of them is that of the proponents of innovated theological speech and viewpoints, for there is undoubtedly much falsehood in this. Many of its adherents neglect the actions that Allah and His Messenger have prescribed, and as a result, their knowledge and conduct continue to be corrupt. These folks veer off into false Judaism (i.e. distorted after the departure of the Prophets)”. [End of quote] (2)

The same thing is happening to Ed Husain, who began endorsing heretical philosophers like Aristotle, Ibn Sina, Al-Faraabi, and others before finally endorsing other views that are tantamount to clear misguidance.

Let’s finish Al-Allaamah Rabee’s quote by adding the following: “The second is the path of those who use techniques for enhancing the soul, including followers of Soofi paths and new forms of worship. They err towards false Christianity because they claim that if a person cleanses his soul in accordance with what they have said, then the sciences of the religion will flow to him abundantly without learning. Many of these people’s forms of worship are innovated; rather, they contradict what the Messenger conveyed, leaving them with corrupt actions and corruption brought on by a lack of knowledge since they are ignorant of what the Messenger conveyed. Despite the fact that each group purports to be following the Messenger, these people frequently speak negatively about one another. The Messenger’s message, however, does not concur with either of their respective points of view. “Ibrahim (Abraham) was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was a true Muslim Hanifa (Islamic Monotheism – to worship none but Allah Alone) and he was not one who associated partners to Allaah in worship”. [Surah Aal Imraan. Aayah 67] Neither Allaah’s Messenger nor his companions followed the path of the people of Bidah among those who advocated for theological rhetoric and views nor did they follow the path of the people of Bidah among those who advocated for innovative worship and Soofiyyah; instead, he followed that which Allaah sent him with based on the Qur’an and Sunnah”.

Eugenicists were either driven by ignorance or obstinacy in their futile quest to establish a genetically superior class

In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Imam As-Sadi [may Allah have mercy upon him] stated:

The greatest evils of knowledge and its inconsistencies occur as a result of acquainting oneself with the creation without its Creator, acquaintance with effects without the One who created those effects, acquaintance with causes without the One who created those causes, and acquaintance with the paths without its sound goals. The deficiency in this type of acquaintance is numerous and its harm is great, because indeed many atheists and those deceived by them are skilled in the natural sciences, but they confine themselves to it and are blind regarding its association with its Creator and Causer. And with regards to that which is placed in these natural sciences of wonders and secrets, they see themselves as those who know the wonders of the natural sciences – which none knows besides them – and the secrets which Allāh has placed in nature, so it gives them higher status over others and thus they become afflicted with vanity and self-deception. They confine themselves to it, consider it as the final outcome, the purpose, and the goal, and thus occurs great deviation, deficiency in knowledge and intellect. If they knew and affirmed belief in the true Creator and the One Who Controls all the affairs of the Universe- the One who attached the means and causes to His Qadaa Wal Qadr [Footnote a], know that the means and causes are an abode of His Perfect Wisdom – for indeed Allāh [The Most High] is All-Wise, He placed things in their rightful places, gave the subtle affairs and big affairs an amazing orderly system and a firm association; gave everything that is sought after and the goals a means or cause, and a path that will lead to it, and due to this results and outcomes are based on the strength or weakness of the means or causes, and the strength or weakness of the performer of the deed- and then they bound these means, paths and outcomes to Allāh’s Qadaa Wal Qadr, their knowledge would have been perfected and they would have acquired of certainty that which cannot be acquired by those who have not reached their level; but they are glad (and proud) with that which they know of those paths whose tangible worldly outcomes they know and became haughty by way of them, so the statement of Allāh [The Most High] apply to them: [فلما جاءتهم رسلهم بالبينات فرحوا بما عندهم من العلم وحاق بهم ما كانوا به يستهزئون – Then when their Messengers came to them with clear proofs, they were glad (and proud) with that which they had of the knowledge (of worldly things): And that at which they used to mock, surrounded them (i.e. the punishment)]. [Surah Ghaafir. Aayah 83]

Allāh says:

وجعلنا لهم سمعا وأبصارا وأفئدة فما أغنى عنهم سمعهم ولا أبصارهم ولا أفئدتهم من شيء إذ كانوا يجحدون بآيات الله وحاق بهم ما كانوا به يستهزئون

And indeed We had firmly established them with that wherewith We have not established you! And We had assigned them the (faculties of) hearing (ears), seeing (eyes), and hearts, but their hearing (ears), seeing (eyes), and their hearts availed them nothing since they used to deny the Ayat (Allah’s Prophets and their Prophethood, proofs, evidences, verses, signs, revelations, etc.) of Allah, and they were completely encircled by that which they used to mock at! [Surah Al-Ahqaaf. Ayah 26]

This is the greatest evil consequence of self-amazement and arrogance without exception, and the most perilous path through which many people become beguiled and deceived; therefore we ask Allāh to blessed us with sound knowledge that is supported by sound intellect, divine text and sound natural disposition – the beneficial knowledge which the servant knows in all its aspects, and the knowledge which links the subsidiary affairs to its (sound) fundamental principles, and its means, causes, effects and outcomes are ascribed to the One Who originated and created them. It is the knowledge whose possessor does not disassociate the creation from its Creator- neither disassociates its effects from the One Who made them effective, nor disassociates the wisdom, the secrets and the amazing orderly systems in the creation from the One Who Created and Perfected them, organised them in perfect order and brought them into existence prior to their non-existence. This is the knowledge that bears the fruits of certainty and through which tranquillity is obtained, and through which happiness and success is attained. It bears the fruits of beautiful manners and righteous deeds, beneficial to the religious and worldly affairs. [1]

Indeed, every fabricated belief system attracts its group of devoted followers, radicals, and tyrants. It is not unexpected that even those who claim to be enlightened overseers or experts in various fields can engage in criminal behaviour and disruptive actions. A significant number of us, having been educated in primary and secondary schools, as well as colleges and universities, are familiar with Charles Darwin’s “Savages and Favoured Races,” which undoubtedly serves as a foundation for racial prejudice. Similarly, the path that was chosen by the arrogant and opinionated eugenicists led to an increase in oppression and crimes committed against the weak and vulnerable in society. Population eugenics involved urging individuals to procreate to produce desired traits, but the true believers in Allah and His Messengers have always distanced themselves from the hidden motives and ideas of those whose approach to sexual reproduction is solely aimed at advancing their materialistic or racist agendas – whether it is to create future workers for the communists or capitalists or to prevent other members of society from having children in the name of racial hygiene or to discourage them from doing so out of fear of poverty.

The notoriety of the haughty and opinionated eugenicists is well-known and they were those individuals who pursued a futile endeavour to establish a genetically superior class and advocated for the reproduction of solely flawless individuals, thereby marginalising anyone with even the most minor disability. The concept of “Positive eugenics” focused on promoting reproduction among individuals deemed to have so-called “good stock,” while “Negative eugenics” aimed to discourage or prevent reproduction among those considered unfit, such as the poor, criminals, or the feeble-minded. Indeed, it is undeniable that one of the factors that contributed to this inclination was either their lack of awareness regarding the well-balanced approach elucidated in the final revelation or their persistent defiance of it. So, we conclude by citing the insightful words of Imam Ibn Al-Qayyim [may Allah have mercy upon him], who emphasised the importance of achieving this balanced in all aspects of life.

He stated:

Akhlaaq [or moral character] is bounded by limits. Transgression takes place when these limits are exceeded, while deficiency and humiliation arise when one falls short.

The commendable aspects of anger lie within its boundaries of bravery and a distaste for despicable and inadequate behaviour. These boundaries represent the pinnacle of anger’s expression. However, when one surpasses these limits, they cross into transgression and oppression. Conversely, if their anger is lacking, they will exhibit cowardice and fail to abhor despicable behaviour. The scope of eagerness lies in acquiring what is necessary for one’s worldly pursuits and employing suitable means to attain them. Insufficient eagerness leads to humiliation and wastage of valuable time or opportunities while exceeding its limits breeds intense greed and unworthy desires. The boundaries of envy lie within the realm of praiseworthy competition, where individuals strive for perfection and aim to surpass another competitor. However, once these limits are exceeded, envy transforms into jealousy characterised by animosity and oppression. In such instances, the envious person desires the deprivation of blessings for the one envied and is eager to cause harm. Conversely, if one lacks (what is required of jealousy), it leads to a diminished sense of worth and a weakened drive to achieve. The Prophet [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said, “There should be no envy except in two (people); a person whom Allah has given wealth and he spends it in the right way, and a person whom Allah has given wisdom (i.e. religious knowledge) and he judges by way of it and teaches it to the others”. This form of envy (requires commendable) competition among individuals, and the Haasid (the one who is envious of their competitor) strives to resemble the person they envy, without (harbouring) the detestable envy (which makes one) wish that the blessings bestowed upon the envied individual should cease.

The boundaries of desires provide a means of relaxation for the heart and intellect after exerting oneself in acts of obedience and striving to accomplish virtuous deeds. However, when one exceeds these limits, it gives rise to intense and barely controllable emotions, as well as lewdness, ultimately causing the person to descend to the level of animals. On the other hand, lacking desire and not utilising it as a means to pursue perfection and virtue leads to weakness, impotence, and humiliation. The boundaries of relaxation lie in its ability to replenish one’s energy and enhance their mental capacity, thereby enabling one to carry out acts of obedience and accomplish virtuous deeds. This safeguards against the detrimental effects of exertion and exhaustion. However, when an individual exceeds these limits, it leads to a lack of enthusiasm, laziness, wastage of time and opportunities, and many beneficial endevours are missed. Conversely, insufficient relaxation hampers one’s strength and may even result in debilitation.

The boundaries of generosity are marked by two extremes, where surpassing these limits results in extravagance and wastefulness. Conversely, a deficiency in generosity leads to avarice and a reluctance to give freely. The boundaries of courage lie in the fact that exceeding them results in recklessness while lacking courage leads to cowardice and weakness. Its limit is to act when necessary and abstain when it is not. Jealousy has its limitations, as crossing them leads to false accusations and (unjustified) evil suspicions against blameless individuals. Conversely, the absence of jealousy leads to heedlessness and a lack of regard for one’s honour. When humility is exceeded, it gives way to indignity and humiliation, whereas the absence of humility gives rise to pride and boasting. There are limits to honour, and if someone exceeds those limits, it will inevitably result in pride. On the other hand, when someone lacks honour, it leads to humiliation and a loss of dignity.

Justice provides a precise balance to these affairs and requires that a person follow the path set by Islamic legislation – the path is free from both exaggeration and negligence. The foundation of all beneficial matters, whether in this worldly life or the hereafter, rests upon this; rather, physical well-being can only be achieved by adhering to it, for any disruption in the proper balance of the human body’s elements – whether due to excessive indulgence or negligence – leads to a deterioration in its health and strength, proportionate to the extent of this (imbalance). Similarly, engaging in natural activities such as sleep, staying up late at night, eating, drinking, sexual intercourse, movement, recreation, seclusion, and socialising, in a moderate manner – without excess or deficiency – is considered to be upright, appropriate, and balanced; however, when an individual veer towards either extreme, it is deemed to be a deficiency and will yield deficient outcomes. One of the noblest and most beneficial sciences is the knowledge of the boundaries (within which affairs are confined), particularly the divine limits – the commands and prohibitions (outlined in the Qur’an and Sunnah). Those who possess more understanding of these divine limits are the most learned individuals, so they neither include anything outside of these limits nor exclude anything that falls within them. Allah [The Exalted] says:

ٱلۡأَعۡرَابُ أَشَدُّ ڪُفۡرً۬ا وَنِفَاقً۬ا وَأَجۡدَرُ أَلَّا يَعۡلَمُواْ حُدُودَ مَآ أَنزَلَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ رَسُولِهِ

The bedouins are the worst in disbelief and hypocrisy, and more likely to be in ignorance of the limits (Allah’s Commandments and His Legal Laws, etc.) which Allah has revealed to His Messenger]. [Surah At-Tawbah. Ayah 97]

Thus, the individuals who remain within the confines of the moral values and actions outlined in the Islamic legislation, both in their understanding and implementation, are the most just, balanced, and upright. [2]

It bears the fruits of beautiful manners and righteous deeds, beneficial to the religious and worldly affairs. [1]

Indeed, every fabricated belief system attracts its group of devoted followers, radicals, and tyrants. It is not unexpected that even those who claim to be enlightened overseers or experts in various fields can engage in criminal behaviour and disruptive actions. A significant number of us, having been educated in primary and secondary schools, as well as colleges and universities, are familiar with Charles Darwin’s “Savages and Favoured Races,” which undoubtedly serves as a foundation for racial prejudice. Likewise, the path that was chosen by the arrogant and opinionated eugenicists led to an increase in oppression and crimes committed against the weak and vulnerable in society. Population eugenics involved urging individuals to procreate to produce desired traits, but the true believers in Allah and His Messengers have always distanced themselves from the hidden motives and ideas of those whose approach to sexual reproduction is solely aimed at advancing their materialistic or racist agendas – whether it is to create future workers for the communists or capitalists or to prevent other members of society from having children in the name of racial hygiene or to discourage them from doing so out of fear of poverty. Shaikh Abdul Waahid Abu Khadeejah [may Allaah preserve him] said, “According to scientists, another cause of poverty is population growth in countries that cannot afford to feed the extra mouths. Most rich countries have a stable population with roughly as many babies born as people dying. However, in poor countries, the populations seem to be increasing. Muslims, as a rule, are not allowed to use contraception due to fear of not being able to provide for their children – they learn from the Quran that Allah will enrich them from Himself from the ways and means that He provides. Population control measures are not from the Islamically legislated means to remove poverty – this is proven by the fact that there is sufficient food and resources in the world to feed the poor many times over daily! Added to that is the reality that large populations are a tremendous resource for a nation. Countries with large populations are quite often the wealthiest and have the fastest-growing economies. Note: In certain situations, contraception is permitted and I have discussed that elsewhere. Islam teaches that poor people must be helped with education, skills, charity, better infrastructure, and better health care. In this way the poor are not neglected and the wealth of the rich is purified in the sight of Allāh through the giving of charity. People have large families because the family unit helps each other and they care for their elders. Death of young children is much higher in poorer countries due to sicknesses and disease. So, Muslims have to help the poor, even if they are non-Muslims. The Prophet said, ‘Give charity to people of other Religions'” (Shaikh Al-Albānī said it was an authentic Hadīth, in As-Saheehah). [2]

The notoriety of the haughty and opinionated eugenicists is well-known and they were those individuals who pursued a futile endeavour to establish a genetically superior class and advocated for the reproduction of solely flawless individuals, thereby marginalizing anyone with even the most minor disability. The concept of “Positive eugenics” focused on promoting reproduction among individuals deemed to have so-called “good stock,” while “Negative eugenics” aimed to discourage or prevent reproduction among those considered unfit, such as the poor, criminals, or the feeble-minded. Unfortunately, some politicians and government officials embraced this sinister notion, placing the well-being of vulnerable members of society in the hands of individuals whose scientific knowledge lacked the compassion, mercy, and moral character prescribed by the Creator of the universe.

Francis Galton, born in 1822 and passed away in 1911, is recognized as the pioneer of the eugenics movement. His ideas were greatly influenced by Charles Darwin’s dubious idea of “The Origin of Species.” Galton’s primary focus was on the concept of heritability, particularly concerning intelligence. He aimed to address society’s perceived lack of talent and character by exploring the hereditary nature of these traits. He also believed that poverty, vagrancy, and crime could be attributed to the transmission of degenerate traits from parents to their offspring. His diabolical notions had a profound impact on certain intellectuals in the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany, and various other nations during that era. Indeed, all praise and thanks are due to Allah, as this is not how true believers tackle societal issues, rather, this approach was merely an attempt to find scapegoats to rationalise the neglect of the vulnerable members of society. Some of these arrogant and opinionated eugenicists believed that preventing the impoverished from procreating would safeguard society by preventing the birth of individuals resembling them. Throughout the twentieth century, thirty-two American states enacted eugenic sterilisation laws, resulting in the sterilisation of approximately sixty to seventy thousand individuals. Nonetheless, despite the concerted efforts of contemporary writers and politicians to address numerous societal issues, their endeavours have proven futile in fostering moral rectitude, as Imam As-Sadi [may Allah have mercy upon him] aptly pointed out, “It is truly remarkable that while they approach the problem from various angles, they have neglected to address the fundamental issue of deviating from the path of Allah. This deviation, which has ensnared the majority of young individuals, has not been curbed by a return to sound faith and unwavering certainty. Instead, these individuals have been left to wander aimlessly in their misguided beliefs and vacillate in their deception. Consequently, the very social problems they seek to remedy give birth to further social ills because it is imperative to acknowledge that unless the solutions to these societal maladies are grounded in sound faith and a righteous religion, they will only exacerbate and deteriorate”. [3]

The Imam also stated: “It is undeniable that the mere pursuit of worldly sciences cannot bring about the purification of souls and the acquisition of virtue. This fact is supported by experience and evident circumstances, which demonstrate that despite the progress and extensive knowledge offered by these sciences, they have failed to foster spiritual growth and moral rectitude. (Rather) what Islam propagates is entrusted with this rectification, and it is what steers individuals towards truthful and authentic sources of knowledge while encouraging them to engage in good deeds and deterring them from evil. Islam serves as the rectifier of beliefs and manners, cultivating righteous thoughts and preventing depravity. The essence of what religion advocates for in terms of believing in the Unseen, which includes belief in Allah and His possession of Names, Attributes, and Actions of perfection; belief in Angels; belief in the consequences of one’s actions in this life and the hereafter, which can only be known through the Messengers, is what acquaints a person with the undeniable fact that genuine rectification can only be achieved through sound belief and the religion of Islam. Hence, despite the worldly sciences being able to rectify certain matters based on what people know in detail, they will never attain the same level of perfection and excellence as the knowledge possessed by the Messengers. The knowledge of the Messengers surpasses what can be achieved through worldly sciences and has a profound impact on the souls, unlike any other. This is because the souls only submit willingly through belief in Allah, belief in His Angels, belief in His Books, belief in His Messengers, and belief in the hereafter. Without these beliefs, voluntary submission is simply not possible, as it is widely recognised in human nature”. [4]

 

The Islamic Ruling On Limiting The Number of Children and Contraception

Imam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz [may Allah have mercy upon him] was asked regarding a husband and wife who agreed to refrain from having children, and whether such a decision is permissible. In response, he stated that their agreement is not permissible. Under Islamic legislation, it is forbidden for them to do this as long as the woman is physically capable of bearing children and making the Ummah numerous. The Prophet [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said, “Marry the childbearing, loving woman for I shall outnumber the peoples by you on the Day of Resurrection”. In another wording [of this narration the Prophet said], “Outnumber [i.e. the followers of the other] Prophets on the Day of Judgement”. That is because by way of this [i.e. having many children] those who worship Allah among the Muslims will be numerous, and the Ummah will be numerous and strong in opposing their enemies. It is impermissible for a man to abandon having children out of fear of either fatigue from seeking a livelihood, facing hardships, incurring expenses, or simply desiring to enjoy one’s wife and so on. It is also impermissible for a woman to engage in this act; instead, it is incumbent upon both of them to pursue the means to have children. They should be enthusiastic in their pursuit of offspring, aiming to increase the number of the Ummah and fulfill what the Prophet has stated. However, if the woman experiences significant pain as a result of a uterine illness or is only able to give birth through surgical means, it is permissible for her to refrain from having children. If the surgical procedure poses a potential risk to her well-being, or if she already has multiple children born closely together and finds it challenging to raise them, she may consider using contraceptive methods or taking preventative measures for a year or two – the period during the breastfeeding, to regain her strength and be better equipped to care for both her existing children and any future newborns.

Responsibility of Muslim Doctors and Health Practitioners

A doctor must fear Allah when dealing with matters for which they are consulted, particularly those that involve the rights of individuals. This includes situations where a patient seeks a medical certificate, or when they require a note to confirm their fitness for employment. It also applies to consultations regarding specific medications, whether a woman’s health permits the use of contraception to avoid pregnancy, or if her condition necessitates the removal of her ovaries. Abu Hurairah [may Allah be pleased with him] reported that the Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said, [الْمُسْتَشَارُ مُؤْتَمَنٌ – The consultee is in a position of trust]. [6]

[الْمُسْتَشَارُ مُؤْتَمَنٌ – The consultee is in a position of trust]. [المستشار -The Consultee]: That is the one whose viewpoint is sought after in matters concerning Maslahah (an affair that promotes benefit and prevents harm). He (or she) is in a position of trust concerning what is asked and it is not permissible to deceive the one who consults by concealing the affair that would bring about benefit. [7] This hadith serves as proof, indicating that the consultee must consider the same course of action and opinion that they would choose for themselves. It is not permissible for them to guide their fellow Muslims towards something that they would not find pleasing. [8]

In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Allah [The Exalted] said:

وَإِذَا قُلۡتُمۡ فَٱعۡدِلُواْ وَلَوۡ ڪَانَ ذَا قُرۡبَىٰ‌ۖ
And when you testify, be just, even if (it concerns) a near relative. [1]

When you testify by way of a statement to judge between people, differentiate between them in a discourse, and speak regarding matters and circumstances, be just in your speech, adhere to truthfulness regarding those you love and those you hate, be fair and do not conceal what needs to be made clear because it is forbidden and tantamount to injustice to divert (from justice and fairness) when speaking against the one you hate. [2]

Therefore, we remind ourselves of the fact that not all Jews are engaged in the plots of the Zionists, as Shaikh Abu Iyaad [may Allah preserve him] stated, “It is important to note that not all Jews are involved in these intrigues and the Jews as a population have, throughout history, been subject to the whims and desires of their religious and political leaders, and have been made to undergo much persecution as a result”.

Christian Coalition Conference (Path to Victory)

The “Christian Coalition Organisation” organises this yearly conference. In 1997, on September 13th, it convened in Atlanta, Georgia, under the theme “Road to Victory”. The conference mobilised the hawks of the American right, such as Speaker of the House of Representatives Newton Leroy Gingrich and the Republican candidates for the 1996 presidential elections, namely: Steve Forbes, Commander Alexander, and Allan Katz, as well as Reverend Pat Robertson, founder of the coalition and president of the conference, who ran for the Republican Party’s presidential nomination in 1988. Many seminars and talks were held throughout the conference, with the majority of them centered on America’s role as a “Christian nation” and its obligation to stand up for “Christians” who are being persecuted abroad. Following the conference, attendees addressed a letter to Congress expressing support for the proposed legislation to impose sanctions on nations that Congress feels are persecuting Christians for their religious beliefs, speaking on behalf of 25 million Americans.

Third, there is no question that if Christians ever face persecution in any Muslim country for reasons other than their professed religion, it will be owing to the lack of implementation of what the Sunnah has legislated with regard to protection for religious minorities. The Prophet [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said, “Whoever wrongs a person (non-Muslim) protected by a covenant, violates his rights, burdens him with more work than he can do, or takes something from him without his consent, I will argue on his behalf on the Day of Resurrection”. [Sunan Abu Dawud 3052]

Lastly, all allegations of persecution need to be thoroughly investigated lest it’s a scheme to infiltrate the lands of the Muslims and corrupt their beliefs, as Al-Allaamah Rabee Bin Haadi Al-Mad’khali [may Allah preserve him] stated, “So it is not permissible for the Ulamaa to remain heedless of their plans (i.e. the enemies of Islaam), their actions, their publications, their missionary activities and their various calls (to the Muslims). And also the various poisons they are infusing – which are in opposition to the Qur’an and the Messenger (sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) and his Sunnah. And nor of what plans they have for (the destruction of) the beliefs and methodologies of Islaam. It is not permissible either, to remain heedless of their concentrated efforts to Christianize or secularize the Muslim youth. And along with that, the Muslim youth and the students are not able to oppose this plan and strategy. Rather it is necessary that the distinguished Ulamaa – those who are experienced and shrewd – it is for such people, in all the places to undertake this duty. So it is obligatory for some of the intelligent and ingenious people from the field of Aqeedah to be mobilised for opposing these plans. And likewise, it is a must that the intelligent and distinguished from amongst the specialists in the Sunnah – that they be mobilised for the refutation of these and similarly the eminent and distinguished from amongst those in the fields of Orientalism for the refutation of the plans of the Orientalists.” [2]

The Shaikh also stated: “I myself believe that it is a benefit – rather it is of necessity – that we know what the enemies are planning for us, and that it is necessary for us to prepare (ourselves in strength) to destroy their plans. However, I do not exaggerate in this matter, rather my view is the view of our Ulamaa and they have all agreed upon this – that amongst the obligatory matters, there are some that are Fard Ain and others that are Fard Kifaayah – and even if knowing the state of the enemies is harmful – it is still necessary for us to know it – but it is treated as Fard Kifaayah. When some attend to it, then the harm is removed from the rest” up until he said: “So I consider that there is no criticism for the Ulamaa and the students of knowledge who take great concern for preserving the Sharee’ah of Allaah – in terms of the Book, the Sunnah, and its understanding – for this is one of the duties of the Kifaayah actions. And I believe that these people are more superior, noble, truthful and of more benefit to Islaam than those who are weak in their knowledge of the religion of Allaah or those who have no share in acquainting themselves with it.” [3]

Freedom House Conference (Global Persecution of Christians):

On January 23, 1996, Christian Zionists in America launched a campaign to save Christians around the world from “persecution,” as they said. The campaign was launched by a Jewish man named “Michael Horevitz” in a Wall Street Journal article titled “The new fanaticism between the cross and the crescent” on July 5, 1995, drawing attention to the “growing and increasing persecution of Christian missionaries,” he said, and urging the American Christian Community to face this challenge. Then he wrote a letter to 150 leaders of boards of directors of Protestant organisations and churches, beginning his message by saying, “As an American Jew, I am very grateful for the Christian community’s brotherhood in the face of opposing anti-Semitic movements.” As a result, evangelical fundamentalists founded the “Freedom House” organisation for this purpose, as requested by that Jew. The “Freedom House” organisation then organised a conference named “Global Persecution of Christians” to defend and protect Christians. At this conference, the “Freedom House organisation” distributed a statement titled “A Statement to Arouse Conscience,” in which they stated that the “National Association of Evangelicals” is responsible for “Freedom House,” and that it includes 42,500 American evangelical groups. The following are the most important points from the conference statement:

[I] Introduction, demonstrating the interest of American evangelicals in the religious freedom of Christians, and demanding that the government take action to curb religious persecution of Christians around the world.

[II] The facts: The statement examines the conditions of Christians and how authorities in various nations subject them to persecution and terrorism.

[III] Principles: It is a set of fundamental ideas and ground rules for defending the rights of Christians around the world.

[IV] The call to action, which specifies the policies that the government of the United States of America may adopt to protect the rights of Christians, and among those policies advocated were:

– Informing the international community about governmental and terrorist persecution of Christians.

-A new anti-persecution law

– Issue directives to ambassadors to hold periodic meetings with church movements in countries where there is persecution.

-Appoint a Special Advisor to the President on Religious Freedom, whose job it will be to prepare a report and provide policy recommendations on religious persecution by taking firm action.

-Linking international trade and negotiations to situations of religious persecution.

-Providing diplomatic assistance and asylum to persecuted people

-Release documented reports on religious persecution by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Human Rights Office and other government entities.

-Develop the role of embassies with regard to pursuing religious freedom.

-Distinction between various Christian groups in periodic reports, as well as the state of religious freedom for each of them.

-Establish rules for processing pleas from those fleeing persecution.

-Setting a deadline for the cessation of aid to countries that fail to take decisive measures to end the persecution, and the return of aid is not permitted unless the American President makes a written pledge that this country or countries have begun to take Practical steps to end the persecution.

Conclusion: The statement ended with the assertion that religious freedom is a gift from God to humanity and that it is “a basic pillar that distinguishes trait our audience and our people are known for. [1] [Footnote a] [End of quote]

Regarding trying to use aid to subjugate nations, this is an old practice of the Neo-colonialists and globalists regardless of whether the nation in question has a history of oppressing minorities.

“The Second International Christian Zionist Conference”: This was held in occupied Palestine in 1988 under the auspices and organisation of the “International Christian Embassy”, and was opened by Jewish Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir. In his opening remarks, he urged the audience to “support the state of Israel”. The conference’s main focus was on two issues: the primary concern was Israel’s relationship with God, and secondly, the return of Jews to Palestine and the building of their state there, as well as its impact on hastening the second coming of Christ. Several lectures were delivered; meetings, interviews, and public and private sessions were held, the majority of which focused on Christ’s millennial rule and the Kingdom. In his conference speech, John William stated that “after the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE, the Lord directed him to the nations, devouring peoples other than the Jews in order to establish a relationship with them, and that now that the time of the nations has passed, the Lord has returned to turn to Israel and establish a state for it in its greater land”. Glorified and Exalted is Allah above (the great falsehood) that the polytheists, the Christian Zionists, and Jewish Zionists utter about Him!

Christian Zionist John William also argued that the return of Jews to Palestine and the founding of the State of Israel is a sign of the end of the time of nations. Then he stated that the destiny of Christians in the world is determined by militarily, materially, and intellectually backing the State of Israel, proving its existence with power, and fulfilling the Will of the Lord with utmost security. Then Christ will return, and Israel must be assisted and supported with whatever man possesses. It is worth noting that this conference was held in Jerusalem on the occasion of Israel’s forty-fifth anniversary. In his final statement, he mentioned his love for Israel and the Jewish people, the sacred right of the Jews to live freely in all of the Land of Israel, including Judea and Samaria, encouraged the return of the entire Jewish people from the diaspora in response to the Lord’s call, urge all countries to recognise Israel and establish embassies in Jerusalem, and call on nations to support and invest in Israel.

وَإِذَا قُلۡتُمۡ فَٱعۡدِلُواْ وَلَوۡ ڪَانَ ذَا قُرۡبَىٰ‌ۖ

And when you testify, be just, even if (it concerns) a near relative. [1]

When you testify by way of a statement to judge between people, differentiate between them in a discourse, and speak regarding matters and circumstances, be just in your speech, adhere to truthfulness regarding those you love and those you hate, be fair and do not conceal what needs to be made clear because it is forbidden and tantamount to injustice to divert (from justice and fairness) when speaking against the one you hate. [2]

To begin with, the mass murder in Gaza is not an accident; rather, it is the result of the actions of a Zionist/far-right administration that takes joy in annihilating innocent civilians in the name of collateral damage and self-defence. Likewise, no sane person would condone Hamas’s crimes against the civilians who live under the authority of the Zionists. Read the article by Shaikh Abu Iyaad [may Allah preserve him] https://abuiyaad.com/a/amalekite-genocide-doctrine-gazay

Second, Benjamin Netanyahu’s Zionist army has recently been accused of using white phosphorous in Gaza; however, they’ve responded to this by saying “Currently we are not aware of the use of weapons containing white phosphorus in Gaza, but rather such a claim is unequivocally false”.

Description of White Phosphorus:

Whoever researches will come across the following:

Toxic and wax-like, white phosphorus burns at temperatures above 800 degrees Celsius (about 1,500 degrees Fahrenheit), hot enough to melt metal. White phosphorus is the material of choice for militaries to construct smokescreens because of its capacity to start quickly spreading fires and produce thick smoke over large distances which usually lingers for seven minutes. Weapons carrying white phosphorus are hard to put out; they will keep flaming until the phosphorous is completely burned or removed from contact with oxygen. White phosphorus contains compounds that, if absorbed by the body, can burn skin all the way down to the bone and cause malfunctions in the liver, kidneys, and heart, among other organs. There are two effects of the burns: the burn itself, which is typically quite deep and severe, has a local effect, and the second effect is metabolic, which can be fatal for the patients. Heart failure can be caused by abnormal potassium levels, which are a symptom of metabolic diseases. White phosphorus can rekindle if it comes into contact with the skin again since it is sticky and can adhere to a variety of surfaces, including clothing. Additionally, breathing in the fumes can be fatal, and they can cause significant eye irritation and light sensitivity.

Therefore, even if a person were to argue that “Phosphorous is no different from petrol reacting to a lighted match, and that what differentiates it from chemical weapons is that its reaction is not directed against the human physiology”, we ask them whether someone can claim not to be held liable if he pours petrol in another person’s house or city district and then throws a lighted match in the area, causing death and destruction?! Therefore, can someone similarly argue that they should not be held accountable if they spread white phosphorous around a person’s home or city district and then set it on fire with firearms?! Rather, even if a person committed an act for which he truly deserves the death penalty under Islamic law, it would not be permissible to punish him through burning or fire. Imam Al-Bukhari [may Allah have mercy upon him] stated: “Chapter: Not to punish with Allah’s punishment”. Ikrimah reported that Ali burnt some people and this news reached Ibn Abbaas, who said, “Had I been in his place I would not have burnt them, as the Prophet [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said, ‘Don’t punish (anybody) with Allah’s Punishment”. [Saheeh Al-Bukhari 3017]

As a result, it makes no difference whether white phosphorous is permitted by anyone regardless of their expertise because only the final infallible divine revelation [The Qur’an and authentic Sunnah] as understood and implemented by the Sahaabah is the source through which what should be considered lawful or unlawful during military conflict is decided, not the views of any war-monger, war-criminal, racist or organisation that seeks victory for its allies at any cost or exclusively on the basis of “the ends justify the means.” Therefore, we wait for a Fatwa from the Senior Salafi Scholars that justify the use of this chemical!

Third, the Zionist military cannot deny the fact that it has used white phosphorous in the past as stated in the Jerusalem Post as follows:

However, as for the recent claims -[the specific events after 7/10/23] -that Netanyahu’s army of Zionists are using it again, this is still being investigated, so we’ll wait for the reliable and unbiased investigators and experts – among Muslims and non-Muslims – to produce a final report. We neither negate nor affirm until the affair is finalised, but what remains a fact is that the Zionists did use white phosphorous in the past.

Finally, every oppressor who uses these barbaric methods reminds us of what has been stated in Surah Al-Burooj. Allah said:

قُتِلَ أَصْحَٰبُ ٱلْأُخْدُودِ
ٱلنَّارِ ذَاتِ ٱلْوَقُودِ
إِذْ هُمْ عَلَيْهَا قُعُودٌ

Cursed were the People of the Ditch, (the large ditch with) the fire, given fuel (in abundance). While they were sat over it (watching those whom they punished by burning). [3]

Imam As-Sadi [may Allah have mercy upon him] said: This is the greatest type of tyranny and heart-heartedness because they combined disbelief in Allah’s Ayaat and wilful opposition to them, waging war against its adherents and torturing them with this torment, which the extremely heart-breaking, whilst they are present and throwing them into it. And the fact is that they did not take revenge on the believers except due to a characteristic for which they are praised, and by way of which they attain happiness (in this life and the next), which is that they believed in Allah. [4]

Imam Muhammad Ibn Saalih Al-Uthaymeen [may Allah have mercy upon him] said, “They saw the fire burning these people while sitting and joking as if nothing was happening, and Allah’s protection is sought (against this behaviour). This is tyranny that a person sees a human being burnt with fire while he reclines on his couch and is distracted by the conversation and does not care”. [5]

[1] Zionism – Conferences and Seminars

In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Allah [The Exalted] said:

وَإِذَا قُلۡتُمۡ فَٱعۡدِلُواْ وَلَوۡ ڪَانَ ذَا قُرۡبَىٰ‌ۖ
And when you testify, be just, even if (it concerns) a near relative. [1]

When you testify by way of a statement to judge between people, differentiate between them in a discourse, and speak regarding matters and circumstances, be just in your speech, adhere to truthfulness regarding those you love and those you hate, be fair and do not conceal what needs to be made clear because it is forbidden and tantamount to injustice to divert (from justice and fairness) when speaking against the one you hate. [2]

Therefore, we remind ourselves of the fact that not all Jews are engaged in the plots of the Zionists, as Shaikh Abu Iyaad [may Allah preserve him] stated, “It is important to note that not all Jews are involved in these intrigues and the Jews as a population have, throughout history, been subject to the whims and desires of their religious and political leaders, and have been made to undergo much persecution as a result”.

Conferences and seminars

Christian Zionists have hosted and continue to hold numerous conferences and seminars in order to achieve their aims of persuading people not to reject it, gathering the largest number of supporters, and justifying its political, economic, and intellectual activities. In this context, I will mention examples of these conferences and seminars to demonstrate what we perceive to be Christian Zionism’s pursuit of goals and objectives. [Footnote a] The following are the most important of these conferences:

[1] American Christian Conference: This conference was held by an American organization, the “Loyal American Federal Organization For Palestine”. It was held in New York City, America, on December 15, 1936, and was attended by more than 200 personalities, including government officials and Zionist Christian clerics. The conference issued a resolution calling on civilised societies [Footnote b] to assist fleeing Jewish refugees from Germany and Eastern Europe to enter Palestine because it is their natural safe haven.

[2] National Christian Leadership Conference for Israel: It is an annual conference held and organised by the “National Christian Leadership Conference for Israel” in Washington, the capital of the United States of America. As is the title of the conference and the organization, it is held to serve Israel and its interests. Members of the US Congress usually attend the conference. The conference, held in June 1982, called for demonstrations in support of Israel’s invasion of Lebanon, and demonstrations have already taken place in many American cities with the demand to support Israel militarily and economically and understand Israel’s need to protect its people from terrorism. [Footnote c] At this conference, a final statement was issued to support the Jews, emphasising the commitment to Israel’s security and protection, and that all the Jewish Holy Lands belong to the people, and that Jerusalem is the unified and eternal capital of Israel, which may not be internationalised, or be a subject of negotiation or compromise, and that the Jewish people anywhere will remain God’s chosen peoplethose who invoke blessings on them are blessed by the Lord, while those who curse them are cursed by the Lord. [Footnote d]

This annual conference includes lectures and seminars by leading Zionist thinkers and Christians, and chaired by Franklin Little, a lecturer at Temple University in Pennsylvania. [Footnote e] It was held in one of the Jewish synagogues in Washington, D.C., under the slogan: “Encounters Between Fundamentalist Christianity and Jewish Leadership”. Following this conference, they held another conference titled “The National Christian Conference”, whose president stated, “The National Christian Conference was established for the purpose of uniting Christians from a variety of names and organisations who have a common shared interest in the safety of the Jewish homeland”. At the conference’s inaugural meeting, which was attended by one hundred people, including fundamentalists and members from the National Conference of Catholic Bishops and the National Council of Churches, Jack Camp, the Republican Party delegate from New York, stated regarding the establishment of Israel in 1948 as the fulfilment of “biblical prophecy,” and that the United States of America’s role is to provide opportunities for the fulfilment of biblical prophecies in Israel.

[3] “Breakfast and Prayer Conference for Israel”: This conference is one of the activities of the “Religious Round Table” organisation, which was held in Washington, D.C. in 1983. Following the conference, the final declaration was released, which contained paragraphs regarding Israel’s religious, political, and military interests, and the most important of them were:

[I] The call for cooperation – in all spheres – between the United States of America and Israel; then they quoted specific texts from the Old Testament affirming the Jewish right to Palestine.

[II] Calling for the relocation of the US Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. The statement recognised that the borders of the Holy Land, as defined by the Bible, could not be altered by evolving political and economic circumstances. This conference is held annually, which is why it is referred to as the annual breakfast party organised by the aforementioned organisation to pray for Israel and support its policies and aims. Following the prayer, those conferred or gathered to celebrate usually make a statement in which Israel is blessed in the name of more than 50 million Christians in the United States of America who believe in the Torah. [Footnote f] Political and religious figures, notable businesses, and members from the American government all attend the breakfast meeting. It expresses unequivocal support for Jewish policies in Palestine. On February 1, 1984, they held a conference to pray for Israel at the Shoreham Hotel in the American capital, Washington, where they distributed a Jewish book about the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in the summer of 1982, which they called “a liberation operation of Lebanon from terrorism,” and images from the invasion were also included in the book. More than 500 people attended the prayer conference, including Jewish Zionist leaders such as Alleck Resnick, head of the Zionist Organisation. US Attorney General Edwin Meese, US Ambassador to the Organisation of American States, William Middendorf, Senator Charles E. Grassley, and Breger Marshall, Special Assistant to President Ronald Reagan, all attended the conference. The conference’s topics revolved around the covenant relations between God and the Jewish people, as well as “the responsibility placed on Christians to stand by Israel in the implementation of this “Biblical Covenant”.

Footnote a: “O you who believe! When you hold secret counsel, do it not for sin and wrong-doing, and disobedience towards the Messenger (Muhammad) but do it for Al-Birr (righteousness) and Taqwa (virtues and piety), and fear Allah unto Whom you shall be gathered. Secret counsels (conspiracies) are only from Shaitan (Satan), in order that he may cause grief to the believers. But he cannot harm them in the least, except as Allah permits, and in Allah let the believers put their trust”. [Surah Al-Mujaadilah. Ayaat 9-10]

Those before them indeed plotted, but Allah struck at the foundation of their building, and then the roof fell down upon them, from above them, and the torment overtook them from directions they did not perceive. [Surah Al-Nahl. Ayah 26]

Imam As-Sadi [may Allah have mercy upon him] said: This is one the best of parables regarding how Allah nullifies the plots of his enemies, for indeed they pondered and reflected on that which the Messengers brought when they belied them, made up principles and rules for it based on falsehood, referred back to them to reject that which the Messengers came with, employed tricks to bring discomfort to the Messengers and inflict harm on them and those who followed them, but their plot became a source of evil against them, so their plan became their destruction because their plot was evil, “But the evil plot encompasses only him who makes it”. [Surah Faatir: Ayah: 43] [An Excerpt from Tafseer as-Sadi]

 

Footnote b: Imaam Abdul Azeez Bin Baaz [may Allah have mercy upon him] said: There is no doubt that knowledge is the mainstay on which the foundations of human life are based. And the knowledge that is most worthy to be given importance and concern is the knowledge of the Islamic Shariah because through it is known the wisdom (or purpose) for which Allaah [The Exalted] created us and sent the Messengers. And by way of this knowledge, we acquire knowledge and awareness regarding Allah and worship Him based on that, as Allah stated:

[وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنْسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ – I (Allah) did not create the Jinn and humankind except to worship me alone]. [Surah Adh-Dhaariyaat. Ayah 56]

Allah [Glorified be He and free is He from all imperfections] stated:

[وَلَقَدْ بَعَثْنَا فِي كُلِّ أُمَّةٍ رَسُولًا أَنِ اُعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ وَاجْتَنِبُوا الطَّاغُوتَ – Indeed, We have sent a Messenger to every nation, saying, “Worship Allah alone and keep away from all false deities]. [Surah An-Nahl. Ayah 36]

Based on these two Ayaat, one knows the wisdom behind the creation of Jinn and humankind and the wisdom behind the advent of the Messengers. Any nation without sound belief or sound religion is an ignorant nation regardless of how advanced and developed it is, as Allah [Glorified be He and free is He from all imperfections] stated: [أَمْ تَحْسَبُ أَنَّ أَكْثَرَهُمْ يَسْمَعُونَ أَوْ يَعْقِلُونَ إِنْ هُمْ إِلَّا كَالْأَنْعَامِ بَلْ هُمْ أَضَلُّ سَبِيلً – Or do you think that most of them hear or understand? They are only like cattle; nay, they are even farther astray from the Path. (i.e. even worse than cattle)]. [Surah Al-Furqan. Ayah 44]

A good life is the life of the people of (Islamic) knowledge and faith, as Allah [The Exalted] said:

[يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اسْتَجِيبُوا لِلَّهِ وَلِلرَّسُولِ إِذَا دَعَاكُمْ لِمَا يُحْيِيكُمْ – O you who believe! Answer Allah (by obeying Him) and (His) Messenger when he calls you to that which will give you life]. [Surah Al-Anfaal. Ayah 24] [Majmoo Fataawaa Wa Maqaalaat Ash-Shaikh Ibn Baaz. 2/316]
