Reason for the Weakness of the Muslims

The Reason for the Weakness of the Muslims and the Path Towards Restoring their Honour

By Shaykh 'Abdul 'Aziz ibn Baaz rahimahullaah - Words of Advice Regarding Da`wah.

When the people began to change and split up into groups and became negligent of the issue of jihaad, preferring ease and to follow their desires. Then, evil began to manifest itself in them, except in those people whom Allaah, the Most High, had safeguarded.

So as a result of this Allaah changed their position and gave their enemies power over them, an outcome which the people earned themselves and it is not an oppression from their Lord.

Allaah the Most High says,"Indeed Allaah does not change the condition of a people until they change themselves." [Soorah ar-Ra`d (13):11]

Therefore it is necessary for all Muslims, governments and people to return to their Lord, the Most High, sincerely worshipping and repenting to Him for their shortcomings and the sins which they have committed. They should hurry to fulfil their obligations and distant themselves from that which Allaah has forbidden, and join with one another in co-operation in this.

From one of the most important of these issues is to establish the laws of the Sharee`ah and govern the people by it in everything, so that the people appeal to this Shar`ee law for legal decisions and not to the man-made laws which oppose the law of Allaah, which should be declared void.

What are Muslims waiting for ?!?

Many Arabs wait for the statement of the US President about the Palestinian issue or any Ummah related issues and their state, ignore mockery and deception and think good of him not out of ignorance because they understand the reasons of enmity, but they ignore them. 

After the kuffaar declared their opinion about the Palestinian cause and dictated their impossible conditions, so what do Muslims in general and Arabs in particular wait for?

Has not the time come for Muslims to unite for the word of the truth and leave out disputes which enemies ignited by their fatal war machines, by their prices they absorbed the blood of Muslims, separated them into sects and groups, and claim falsely against them with terrorism to justify their malice, humiliate those who lower their wing to them and terrify those who fear them.

Allah says: "So fear them not, but fear Me, if you are (true) believers." [3:175]

So, all Muslims - Arabs and non-Arabs - should fear Allah, return to Him, and hold firm with the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of the their Prophet Muhammad (saws) because this will lead to glory, honor and happiness in the world and in the Hereafter. Allah says: "O you who believe! Fear Allâh (by doing all that He has ordered and by abstaining from all that He has forbidden) as He should be feared. [Obey Him, be thankful to Him, and remember Him always], and die not except in a state of Islâm [as Muslims (with complete submission to Allâh)]. And hold fast, all of you together, to the Rope of Allâh (i.e. this Qur'ân), and be not divided among yourselves, and remember Allâh's Favour on you, for you were enemies one to another but He joined your hearts together, so that, by His Grace, you became brethren (in Islâmic Faith), and you were on the brink of a pit of Fire, and He saved you from it. Thus Allâh makes His Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.,) clear to you, that you may be guided." [3:102-103]

"We follow and do not innovate in the Deen !"

In the Name of Allah, all praise belongs to Allah, and may the Salaah and Salaam be upon the best of creation, his Sahabah, and those who follow them. As for what follows: Firstly, it is necessary for a Muslim to know that he does not speak a word or give a ruling through a phrase or a sentence in regard to knowledge of this Deen except that he is responsible for it in front of Allah. This knowledge is a trust, so it requires that the one who has the responsibility of possessing it – meaning knowledge – imagines Jannah and the Fire in front of his very eyes. Due to this Imaam ibn Daqeeq Al-‘Īd said that once when he was acting as a judge, and was serving in Egypt. An opponent sin the court once said to him, “You have oppressed me”, and in some of the narrations they state that the opponent said to him, “Your statement is not said seeking the Face of Allah!” or something similiar. He replied, “By Allah, I have not uttered a single word in the part forty years except that I have prepared myself to answer for it in front of Allah.”

So everything a student of knowledge says in debates and dialogues, everything he says when relating rulings, everything he says in matters of knowledge, is fully recorded from him, and he is responsible for it in front of Allah. However, the questioning about knowledge is not like questioning about other matters. Everything someone says is recorded and he is duly responsible for it. But the questioning regarding knowledge is specific and distinct, as you are attributing it to the Deen and to what has been legislated by Allah. You are stating that the ruling of Allah in this issue is such and such, or that this specific matter is obligatory, or that matter is merely permitted without reward or punishment, or that this other matter is only recommended. So it is necessary to imagine the Jannah and the Fire in front of your eyes.

 

You should not give a ruling nor speak a word except that you have with you a portion of knowledge which you had come across or which was transmitted to you from the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah. As Allah says:

"Bring me a scripture prior to this or some trace of knowledge, if you are truthful."

 

Differentiation between Establishing the Hujjah & Understanding the Hujjah

The Scholars of the Najdî Da’wah on the Differentiation Between Establishing the Hujjah (Proof) and Understanding the Hujjah (Proof)

The Scholars of the Da’wah of Najd, may Allâh be merciful to them, spoke about this often. Their Fatâwâ and letters on this issue are also mentioned often, yet they are mentioned unrestrictedly without a clear explanation of what is meant. Below is one of the more famous letters of Imâm Muhammad ibn ‘Abd Al-Wahhâb (rh) on this issue. Included afterwards are excerpts which help clarify what is meant by this issue.

Imâm Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhâb, may Allâh be merciful to him, stated:

“In the Name of Allâh, the Beneficent, the Most-Merciful

To the Brothers... [Is’hâq ibn ‘Abd ar-Rahmân ibn Hasan Âl ash-Shaykh, may Allâh be merciful to them, mentioned that the ones being answered are ‘Îsâ ibn Qâsim and Ahmad ibn Suwaylim. There question was about some statements of Shaykh al-Islâm Ibn Taymiyyah. Look to “Takfîr al-Mu’ayyin wal-Farq Bayna Qiyâm al-Hujjah wa Fihm al-Hujjah” pg. 32-33, with the verification of Shaykh Ahmad ibn Hamûd al-Khâlidî, may Allâh free him]

Salâmun ‘Alaykum Wa Rahmatullâhi Wa Barakâtuh,

And to proceed...

What you mentioned of the Shaykh’s statement, “Everyone who rejects such and such, while the Hujjah has been established upon him” and you are doubtful regarding those Tawâghît and their followers, has the Hujjah been established upon them?

This is indeed strange! How can you have doubt about this when I have clarified it for you repeatedly?!

For indeed, the one upon whom the Hujjah has not been established:
 

The Importance Of Ruling By Islam

This Deen has never been sent down to us as a religion only or merely as a spiritual booster. This is a Rabbani (Godly) way of life that Allah SWT sent down to His Messenger and commanded him to organize and regulate the interests of mankind with a complete law – the Shari’ah.

Before the arrival of Islam, the Mushrikeen and Ahlul Kitab (people of the books) were living in darkness, just as how they are now. They do not have a rabbani way of life and principles to be followed, as they are having a book sent down to the prophets before Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), in which the contents have been corrupted; the consequences are that they are governing mankind with oppression and tyranny (man-made law).

Allah then sent His Messenger, Muhammad (pbuh), to them with a rabbani way of life that would abolish and eradicate the norms, traditions, as well as their religion; also at the same time introduce to them an alternative system of governance that would liberate them from oppressions and corruptions. This is the main objective of why Islam was sent down – to raise mankind out of darkness, who had earlier worshipped fake gods (including man-made law) and to regulate the society with a rabbani law (Shari’ah) which is entirely complete. 

Weeping for your Dead ones?

It was narrated in more than one hadeeth from the Prophet (pbuh) that the deceased suffers because of the weeping of his family over him. For example, Muslim narrated in his Saheeh (927) from Ibn ‘Umar that Hafsah wept for ‘Umar, and he said, “Calm down, O my daughter! Do you not know that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh)  said: ‘The deceased suffers because of his family’s weeping over him.” 

And it was also proven that the Prophet (pbuh) wept for the deceased on more than one occasion, such as when he wept at the death of his son Ibraheem, as was narrated by al-Bukhari (2/105) and Muslim (7/76) from the hadeeth of Anas (ra). He (pbuh) also wept at the death of one of his daughters, whilst she was being buried, as was narrated by al-Bukhari, 1258 from the hadeeth of Anas (ra). 

And he (pbuh) wept when one of his grandchildren died, as narrated by al-Bukhari (1284) and Muslim (923), from the hadeeth of Usaamah ibn Zayd (ra). 

If it is asked, how can we reconcile between the hadeeths which forbid weeping for the deceased and those which permit it? 

The answer is:
