WHEN IT IS ALLAH’S ATHAAB, NO-ONE CAN HELP
“If Allah helps you (O Mu’mineen!), then no one can defeat you. And, if He withholds (aid) from you, then who is there to help you besides Him? Therefore, the Mu’mineen should trust Allah Alone.” (Aal-e-Imraan, Aayat 160)
While Muslims grieve at the heart-rendng plight of suffering of the Burmese Muslims who are being massacred, raped, tortured and exterminated by the Buddhist idolaters of Burma, Allah’s apprehension and chastisement should not be excised from the equation, nor misread, nor minimized.
True Mu’mineen of intelligence, understand the real cause as well as the only solution for the miseries the Rohingya Muslims as well as other segments of the Ummah are suffering in different parts of the world. The root cause for Allah’s Athaab –and the events of genocide – unfolding in horrendous upheavals, is undoubtedly gross and flagrant transgression and rebellion by Muslims against Allah Azza Wa Jal.
In this scenario of Divine Chastisement, no one can help the suffering Muslims. When a Muslim community has been plunged in the vortex of the inferno of Allah’s Athaab, then not even Duas are accepted.
Sounding a sombre warning, Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said that abandonment of Amr Bil Ma’roof Nahy Anil Munkar (Commanding virtue and prohibiting evil), culminates in kuffaar domination. When the Muslim nation has reached the point of no return in flagrant transgression and rebellion against Allah Ta’ala, then the decree of Allah’s Athaab overtakes the community.
When the Athaab finally descends on the people, then according to Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam), the kuffaar will recklessly and brutally embark on the type of genocide and ethnic cleansing which have overtaken Muslim communities and which are currently the scenario in Burma. And, Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said that at such times of misery, the pious among the Muslims will supplicate, but Allah Ta’ala will not answer their supplications.
The United Nations, the Shaitaanah Kyi and all the Muslim countries together are all impotent and unable to lift a finger to aid the Rohingya Muslims. The solution is only one, viz. Inaabat ilallaah. Muslims have to repent, turn to Allah Ta’ala in obedience, cast off their kuffaar life styles and adopt the Sunnah way of life of Islam.
Minus Inaabat, there will never be any refuge and no aid from any quarter. Besides a lot of hot air being blown, no real aid and succour will be forthcoming. On the contrary, the condition of the suffering will deteriorate as long as they intransigently refuse to understand the root cause of their suffering.
NEVER WILL YOU FIND A CHANGE IN THE SUNNAH OF ALLAH
“Never will you find a change in the Sunnah of Allah.” (Qur’aan)
Among the Sunnah of Allah Azza Wa Jal is to punish Muslims collectively and universally when they have reached the point of no return in their flagrant transgression. A form of Allah’s Athaab is the imposition of kuffaar domination and oppression. Examples of Divine Punishment are the domination, brutality and oppression of Israel, Burma, Russia, U.S.A, India, etc.
In the Qur’aan Majeed, Allah Ta’ala describes the kuffaar forces whom He despatches against Muslims as “Ibaadal lana” (Our servants).
“Thus, when the first of the two Promises materialized, We sent against you (O Bani Israaeel!) Our servants who were powerful in warfare. Then they penetrated the homes (of the Muslims). And that was a Promise decreed.” …
”And, when the second Promise materialized, (it was )in order to disfigure your faces, enter (and defile) the Musjid (Musjidul Aqsa) just as they had entered it the first time, and so that they utterly overrun (and destroy) whatever (and wherever) they overran.” (Surah Bani Israaeel|)
Bani Israaeel was the Muslim Ummah of that time. They had reached the point of no return in their flagrant transgression. The kuffaar “servants of Allah” mentioned in these Verses refer to the army of the Babylonian king, Nebuchanezzar (Bukht Nasr). The city which was destroyed was Jerusalem, and the Musjid was Musjidul Aqsa.
It is Allah’s Sunnah to harness another kuffaar force to destroy the first kuffaar force. This same Sunnah is unfolding in the Middle east today. Allah’s Athaab will continue as long as Muslims perpetuate their fisq, fujoor, bid’ah and kufr.
[By Hazrat Maulana Ahmad Sadeq Desai (Daamat Barakatuhum)]
SYRIA, IRAQ, BURMA, ETC. – THE VERY SAME BLOODBATH AND GENOCIDE WILL STRIKE YOU VERY SOON UNLESS…
Allah Ta’ala declares with great clarity: “Whatever calamity befalls you, is the consequence of your own misdeeds.” (Surah Shura)
“Corruption (strife, hardships and anarchy) has appeared on the land and the sea because of the deeds of mankind so that Allah may cause them to taste the con sequences of some of their deeds. Perhaps they will return (to the path of righteousness.)” (Surah Rum)
“NEVER will you find a change in the Sunnah (Way) of Allah.” (Surah Fath)
Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam), describing one such unchangeable Sunnah of Allah, states:
“You people should continue to enjoin people towards righteous deeds and you should continue to prohibit them from wrong-doing (i.e. breaking of Allah’s sacred Laws as clarified by the Salaf-us-Saaliheen and upheld by the Fuqaha for 1400 years). Otherwise, Allah will place in authority over you the worst of people amongst you (e.g. Bashar Assad, Burmese Monks, Sisi, Modi, Tramp, etc). Then the most pious amongst you will do Du’a, but their Du’as will not be answered.” [Tabrani, Bazzar, and others. Imam Suyuti classed it as authentic. The numerous corroborants raise its authenticity even more.]
Rasulullah (sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) said: “…O People! Indeed Allah commands: ‘Enjoin good and prohibit wrong-doing before [a time comes] you will do Du’a to me but I will not answer you, and you will ask me [for something] but I will not give you, and you will seek help from me, but I will not help you.” [Musnad Ahmad, Ibn Majah, and others. Tirmidhi classed his version of the above Hadeeth as authentic. Numerous other corroborants raise its authenticity]
DOZENS of statements of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) convey a similar meaning. For example, Rasulullah (Sallallaahu alayhi wasallam) said in a Hadeeth Qudsi:
“Allah says:“I, alone, am Allah, and there is no Deity save Me. I am the King of Kings, the Lord of the Lords. The hearts of the sovereigns (kings and rulers) of the world are in my Hands. (And my practice is) that when My servants obey Me [i.e. when Muslims submit to the complete Shariah, adhere diligently to the Sunnah of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) and adopt Taqwa – abstain from Haraam and Doubtful Matters], then I incline the hearts of their rulers with love and compassion towards them. And when they take to the path of transgression and disobedience, I turn the hearts of their rulers with anger and punishment against them, and then, they oppress them severely [e.g. the genocide in Syria, Burma, Iraq, Palestine, CAR, Mali, China etc. which is soon to spread also to the UK, Europe, USA, South Africa, etc.]. Thus, do not engage yourselves in cursing the ruler, but turn to Me in remembrance and earnest repentance so that I may suffice for you in deliverance from the tyranny and despotism of the rulers.” (Abu Na’eem)
Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: “Your deeds are your rulers. [i.e. The Rulership installed in domination over the Muslims will be according to their Deeds]” [Mishkaat Shareef]
The Great Student of the Sahabah (radhiyallahu anhum), Hadhrat Hasan Basri (Rahmatullah alayh) said:“The oppression of the Rulers [e.g. Bashar Assad, Burmese Monks, Sisi, Modi, etc.] is from the punishments of Allah Ta’ala. The punishment of Allah Ta’ala cannot be warded off with swords. Verily, safety (from Allah’s punishment) and warding it off are (possible) only by means of Dua, Taubah, Inaabat (turning to Him with sincere repentance and rectification), and by eliminating sins (abstention from all Haraam and Doubtful Matters). Verily, when the punishment of Allah is confronted by swords (i.e. rebellion against a tyrant ruler who is invariably installed by Allah), it (Allah’s Punishment) becomes WORSE.”
Hadhrat Talq Bin Habeeb (Rahmatullah alayh), another Imam of the Salaf-us-Saaliheen, said regarding the brutal tyranny of al-Hajjaaj:“Save (yourselves) from the punishment of Allah with Taqwa. If you are obedient to Allah Ta’ala, then you can hope for the mercy of Allah. If you abandon disobedience to Allah Ta’ala, Allah’s Athaab [i.e. the Tyranny of Tyrants] will be warded off.”
The verses of the Qur’an, Hadeeth narrations, and statements of the Salaf-us-Saaliheen make clear vividly, without the slightest ambiguity, the ONLY solution for the Muslims today, the ONLY way to avert His Punishment, and the ONLY way to deserve His Mercy and Nusrat (Divine Help).
Muslims are supposed to have Yaqeen (conviction) in the following emphatic guarantee issued by Allah:“And, if you have Sabr (patience) and adopt Taqwa (abstain from all Haraam and Doubtful matters), their (the kuffaar) plots will not harm you at all. Verily, Allah encompasses whatever they are doing.” (Surah al-Imraan)
As soon as Muslims adopt Sabr and Taqwa, and remove the causes of Allah’s Punishment, then Allah WILL turn the tables and change our current state of self-inflicted disgrace and humiliation.“Verily! That is easy for Allah” (Al-Quran al-Kareem)
