Introduction

Since the attack of September 11, 2001, the United States and its allies, as part of their war on “terror”, have been working rigorously to promote and establish an Islam which is compatible with Western/modern values, idea and ideals, as one of the several ways to fight the “ideology” of those who attacked the United States on September 11, 2001. As a result, the vast majority of masajid (mosques) in the West and elsewhere have joined this effort, which has turned the vast majority of masajid into frontline organizations dedicated to fighting the Islam of those who strive to adhere to the of Islam of the Prophet Muhammad (saws) and the first three generations of followers. As such, these so-called masajid should be considered the harmful masajid which are referred to in the Quraan. Allah says:
"And (there are) those (hypocrites) who took for themselves a mosque for causing harm and disbelief and division among the believers and as a station for whoever had warred against Allah and His Messenger before. And they will surely swear, “We intended only the best.” And Allah testifies that indeed they are liars." [9:107]

Therefore, it is prohibited to attend or support in any way the masajid promoting and establishing a Western/Modern Islam, which is a distortion and rejection of the purest form of Islam of the Prophet Muhammad (saws) and the first three generations of followers.

Judging by what is Apparent: A trait of the Takfeeri ?

How do we judge if someone is kaafir? Can we judge someone's heart, to see if he is kaafir? Is that possible? If we look to the example of someone who comes and says Assalamu 'Alaikum to us, we would undoubtedly say that he is Muslim. Do we need to check his heart ? No, we know his Islam from his sayings and his actions. We do not need to check his heart, so why if someone's sayings and actions are kuffr, should we need to check his heart? Rather when we see someone who is clearly in kuffr and shirk, or we see people competing with Allah, i.e. that they are Taghout, there is no need for us to check his heart, we must make Takfeer on him - that is the Haqq of Allah. We have a principle in Islam, that: "We consider only the apparent in regards to Imaan and kuffr, we do not consider that which is concealed."

Usama bin Zaid was sent in an expedition, he spoke about one man in the battlefield, he said: "… I saw one of them, he said "laa ilaaha illallah". I stabbed him, and after that I felt bad and so told Muhammad (saws) what I did. The Prophet (saws) asked: "did he say laa ilaha illallah, and you killed him?" I said: "He said it, but only out of fear for my sword." He (saws) asked "did you check his heart to see if he believed it?" he kept on repeating that question until I wished that I was not Muslim yet until that day." [Sahih Muslim]
Imaam an-Nawawi repeated another narration where the Prophet (saws) continued: "(the Prophet (saws) said) …did you kill him?" I said: "yes" he said "what will you do about that laa ilaha illallah if it comes to you on the day of judgment?" I asked "ask forgiveness for me o Rasulullah." and every time he saw me after that he (saws) would ask me "what will you do if laa ilaaha illallah comes to you on the day of judgment?""
Usama bin Zaid was dispraised by Muhammad (saws) strongly because he judged someone's intention i.e. what is inside his heart, though his APPARENT i.e. his sayings and actions was showing Islam.

Furthermore, Al Mikhdaad ibn Aswad asked: "If I found someone who came to me and he fought me, and he cut off my hand, then he went to a tree and I overpower him, and he said 'laa ilaaha illallah,' shouldn't I kill him?" the Prophet (saws) said: "do not kill him, if you kill him, he will take your place, before you killed him. And you will become in his position before you came to fight him." [Sharh Muslim - V-2 P -106]

A Muslim man cannot marry a christian or jewish woman unless she is chaste.  A marriage to an unchaste christian or jewish woman by a Muslim man would not be valid. Allah says:

الْيَوْمَ أُحِلَّ لَكُمُ الطَّيِّبَاتُ ۖ وَطَعَامُ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ حِلٌّ لَّكُمْ وَطَعَامُكُمْ حِلٌّ لَّهُمْ ۖ وَالْمُحْصَنَاتُ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنَاتِ وَالْمُحْصَنَاتُ مِنَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ إِذَا آتَيْتُمُوهُنَّ أُجُورَهُنَّ مُحْصِنِينَ غَيْرَ مُسَافِحِينَ وَلَا مُتَّخِذِي أَخْدَانٍ

"This day (all) good foods have been made lawful, and the food of those who were given the Scripture is lawful for you and your food is lawful for them. And (lawful in marriage are) chaste women from among the believers and chaste women from among those who were given the Scripture before you, when you have given them their due compensation, desiring chastity, not unlawful sexual intercourse or taking (secret) lovers." [5:5]


Furthermore, a Muslim man is forbidden from marrying a christian or jewish woman in a predominantly disbelieving society, for the following reasons:


Gems from the Treasury of the Quraan...

The Messenger of Allah (saws) said: "The best amongst you are those who learn the Quraan and teach it.” [Bukhari]

What is the Quraan?

The Quraan is the Book of Allah, which He chose to be the Final of the Heavenly Books. He, the Merciful and Most High, revealed it to Prophet Muhammad (saws) as the source for the Last Religion and a guidance for mankind. Its revelation was a turning point for humanity; it was the power that changed the world, shifted the flow of history, saved and reformed humanity, so much so that the entire existence appeared as if it had been recreated anew.

The Quraan is the strongest evidence in support of Prophet (saws) and his greatest sign. It is the proof of his prophethood and trustworthiness. Allah says in the Quraan: “They (unbelievers) want to extinguish Allah’s light with their mouths. But Allah will perfect His light, even though the unbelievers may detest it. It is He who has sent His Messenger with guidance and the Religion of Truth, so that he may exalt it over all religions, much as the pagans may dislike it.” [61:8-9]

The Quraan is the guidance that mankind needs to achieve freedom, happiness and success, in this life and the next

Islam advocates educating women and enlightening them about the teachings of religion, as this greatly influences the life of women as well as that of their children in the future. As Hafiz Ibrahim, the Poet of the Nile said, "The mother is a school; if she is well-prepared, a noble nation is prepared."
Besides, the Prophet (saws) addressed women saying: "O womenfolk…." He even specified a day on which he used to address them; when some female Companions said to him, "Men are always with you. So, specify a day for us." He indeed specified a day on which he met them, admonished them and commanded them… [Al-Bukhari and Muslim]

Moreover, the Prophet (saws) used to urge women to teach each other. For example, he said to Ash-Shifaa’ bint ‘Abdullaah Al-‘Adawiyyah, "Teach Hafsah the Ruqyah (protective and healing supplications) for Namlah (Namlah literary means ant. It is a skin disease where pustules appear on the side of the body and they are swallowed like ants), just as you taught her writing." [Ahmad and Al-Haakim]

The Mothers of the Believers, such as ‘Aa’ishah and Hafsah used to explain and teach matters of the religion to women. This was also the guidance of other male Companions for they were keen on teaching their wives and informing them about the teachings of the religion, especially rulings that are specific to women, such as those related to ritual purification, menstruation, post-partum bleeding, prayer, marriage, divorce, breastfeeding, and so on. Some Companions used to hold gatherings of knowledge in their homes in order to teach their children and daughters.


The Foundation of Islam & its Principle, PART-1.

Insha’Allah this is the first lesson we’ll start with ‘Aqidah, we had the Fiqh lesson for about a month, and you asked for something on ‘Aqidah. So, insha’Allah this will be a little bit different than the Fiqh, Fiqh is very long and we’re not really rushing to get through anything, and it’s one book, and we’ll stick with that book. For this topic, it’d be better to pick different small books or mutun, to go through one here and one here and to pick topics about different issues and start our way up. So, we’ll start from the bottom and it’ll take be very quick, and we’ll work our way up, and the more detail we get, the longer we’ll spend on the topic, but I think this will work better for the ‘Aqidah lessons.

When we’re studying ‘Aqidah, there’s many many topics that we would have to go through. Obviously, there’s the basic issues of Tawhid and Shirk, and what is considered Tawhid and what if considered Shirk, and what actually makes someone enter Islam, or what are the conditions for someone to be Muslim.

As well as, how does someone leave Islam, because we need to know that as well. Just as important, to first of all to stay away from it ourselves, and also know who was actually considered Muslim, and who isn’t considered Muslim, because this is also something that’s from the Ahkam of our religion, so this is something that we’ll also go into as well.

Included in that, is the or in the issues of ‘Aqidah is talking about the pillars of Iman, which is belief in Allah, which would be related to the shirk and the tawhid, but also talking about what we believe about the Angels, the Prophets and the Messengers, the Books of Allah that He revealed and everything that’s included in that.

So, what are the rights of the Prophets, and what do we believe about what their abilities, and what the rulings are related to them, and likewise with the Angels, what are there powers, and what are their Sifat, and what don’t we give them, because many people may go too extreme with the Angels, and too extreme with the Rasul, so likewise those issues go into ‘Aqidah. Also, going into the Akhirah, and what we believe about the Adab, and the Na’im and the Qabr, also the Day of Judgement and Jannah wan-Naar, and the Sifat of these things and what are the rulings of people who reject certain aspects of the Din, all of these things come into the topic of ‘Aqidah.
