A Muslim’s Identity…. Does it belong to country, society, or Faith?

آحمد صبحي منصور Ýí 2009-10-21


ding with the Sunnite, this enmity sometimes supersedes the enmity between Muslims and Christians. It is a prolonged deep-rooted enmity renewed by the memories of Karbala and the continuous bloodshed suffered by Shiites at the hands of Sunni extremists, especially in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia and in Egypt, due to the Saudi Wahabi Influence. And when the Shiite are in power or the majority, they persecute the Sunnite as it happened during the Fatimid period, and as it is taking place nowadays in Iran. And in this condition, do not question the allegiance of the Shiite Muslim to the Sunnite Muslim in the frame of same religion, for they are opposing antagonists.</span></strong></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: 15px"><strong><span style="font-family: Times New Roman"><span style="color: red">B</span>- A strict Wahabi, Hanbali, Sunnite minority claiming to speak on behalf of Muslims at large. Equal within its ranks, are the plain terrorists like Bin Laden and Azzawaahri, and the civilian branch of terrorism, the Muslim Brotherhood, united by the common dream of a united Muslim State, ignoring realities of matters. Among them also, are the religious scholars in the service of established corrupt regimes. They direct their enmity towards the Sufi and the Shiite whom they consider to be idolaters, calling to wage wars against them, labeling them as graves and graven images worshippers</span></strong></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: 15px"><strong><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">Hence, to speak of one religion is a waste of time.</span></strong></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: 15px"><strong><span style="font-family: Times New Roman"><span style="color: red">C</span>-An atheist Sufi minority that believes in the unity of existence, incarnation and oneness of every thing in the universe. They dropped rituals from their agenda claiming it hinder reaching God and the Truth, whatever that might be. Based on those convictions, they regard the Muslims&rsquo; creed (There is no Deity except Allah) as intended for low level commoners.</span></strong></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: 15px"><strong><span style="font-family: Times New Roman"><span style="color: red">D</span>- A vast Sunnite Sufi majority, meaning they worship Sunni style, in performing daily prayers, fasting and pilgrimage, in a very superficial form of worship, yet find no qualms in sanctifying graves starting with the one attributed to the prophet (PBUH), then the sacred Shiite graves ( Al-Hussein and Sayyeda Zeineb),then the sacred Sunnite graves (Ash-shaafe&rsquo;ee and Abu Haneefa) and the sacred tombs sanctified by the Sufi (Essayyed El Badawi, Ash-She&rsquo;raani, Ibn Al Faarid, Abul Hasan Eshaazli and Ibraaheem Eddesooqi). This silent majority, succumbs and yields to every tyrannical dictator, its real allegiance is to make a living and to tend to the needs of every day life. It endures the injustice of whoever oppressive tyrant in power, applauds him as long as he is in power , and do the same for the one who succeeds him. Consequently, they are not concerned with real religious identification; they are concerned with themselves, and if any of its members migrate, it is for purely economical reasons and temporary in duration. The oppressor conducts a brain washing method with them, directing their national, pan-national or religious allegiance to him alone.</span></strong></span></div>

Every human being chooses for himself a religion or a way in his life to interact accordingly with his Creator and people around him.

There is the one that believes in Almighty Allah alone as deity, no partner, no counterpart, did not bear an offspring, nor was He borne, and nothing is comparable to Him, believes in the Day of Resurrection, conducts himself in this life according to what Almighty Allah demands from him, obeys Him hoping to be one of the successful on that Day.</span></strong></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt 0.5in"><span style="font-size: 15px"><strong><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">Then there is the vast majority of mankind that worships (DESIRE), any thing that the self desires in this life. All DESIRES have but one way, which is the longing for this earthly life, to gain wealth, power, prestige, glory, influence, pleasure and selfish cravings. Under the title of DESIRES, they differ. Some of them are atheists with their gods they belong to, some of them are followers of man-made religions that allows and permits all means to achieve status, power, wealth by any method, and there are some who consider their god they belong to, mere slogans to deceive people by, like pan nationalism, nationalism and workers&rsquo; rights, their goals is to reach power and wealth, as manifested by politico- religious careerists</span></strong></span></div>

The dominant desire controlling that silent majority is to make ends meet, to secure the basic needs of shelter, guaranteed steady income, health benefits, and security for his children and to live in peace. Towards that end, he sacrifices his strength and his life, and this is his practical religion which never exceeds the requirements of this life. Even when he prays to Almighty Allah, or besieges the saints, holy men, sacred graves and tombs to intercede on his behalf, his aspirations are limited to livelihood, kids&rsquo; success and marrying off the girls and to make it safely out of the hands of the oppressive ruler&hellip;.and the rest of those trivial things, </span></strong></span></div>

Or for the mere uttering of the two phrases of &rdquo; I bear witness&rdquo; (1)-That there is no god except Allah and,(2)-That Mohammad is His messenger,but what is not guaranteed for him in this life is his sustenance, which is exactly opposite what have been mentioned in the Quran. For Almighty Allah has guaranteed sustenance to all creation and mankind regardless of their belief or disbelief.</span></strong></span></div>

We saw the people of Mohammad (PBUH) are the same people until all will come back on Resurrection Day, when the prophet will be their adversary and a witness against them that they have deserted the Quran. The existence of nationalism, its permanence and to recognize it does not mean that a believer belongs to it.

<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: 15px"><strong><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">&nbsp;We said that the prophet employs national ties as a means to summon and call for Truth. He addresses his people derived from his love and concern for them, calls upon them to seek righteousness, goodness and success in this life and the hereafter. He does not coerce them into believing; he returns their abuse with tenderness and kindness and endures it. If peaceful methods fail with them, he has to absolve himself from them, leave them and migrate abandoning them and his home. For here, affiliation and belonging of the prophet and the true believer is to Truth and not to people, he does not ask for compensation or glory, he just calls upon them to follow the Truth and what is good. If they refuse, he respects their refusal, and leaves them to their choice, if they went to extremes in abusing and persecuting him, it becomes imperative upon him to desert them and to declare his innocence of their actions, though they are still his people.</span></strong></span></div>

Migration then is not a choice, but a duty, leaving his home, and his people, despite the fact that they are his people. Migration in this situation is very crucial, for based on his decision; his eternal fate will be decided; if he was capable of migrating and chose not to, holding unto his people and his home, acquiescing to oppression and injustice, his abode will be hellfire.

A believer is certain with this knowledge, how important it is, this short time he is permitted to be in this life, and how important it is to invest it, in doing what is good, to benefit him later on, and to have a genuine faith in Almighty Allah and in the Day After. It would be foolish for a believer to waste his limited stay in this life and the trial period, in being subjugated to religious persecution, that is why it is important for him, due to his awareness of the Afterlife, to leave his homeland of a country that seizes his right for free worship, and to absolve himself of those arrogant among his people who abuse him, trying to force him to go back off the right track. To belong to the Afterlife, fulfils an expectation for the believer to enjoy his freedom in exercising his faith and religion, for the duration of what is left for him on this planet, till the day he meets Almighty Allah on Resurrection Day and succeed in this trial on the Day of Reckoning.</span></strong></span></div>

It is not a train that never stops nor does it go back for any reason but keeps moving forward, and when the station for you disembark arrives-through death-then you must leave the train of life and time, and you become a prisoner to your deeds, good or bad. It is utter foolishness for a believer to waste his life and the time assigned for him on earth in a state of surrender to the one who despises him for his religion, and to the one who prevents him from practicing his faith and his rituals freely. He must migrate to Almighty Allah striving to utilize what is left of his life in attaining belonging to Allah and His religion.</span></strong></span></div>

Then, there is a criminal who murders people in the name of Jihad, plunders their wealth, violates their womenfolk, justifying that by exploiting the religion of Almighty Allah which is based on justice and truth. This criminal commits injustice against people and against their Lord. He is the worst enemies of Almighty Allah. Those man-made earthly religions which hide behind the banner of Islam are the ones responsible for the misunderstandings that caused Islam to stand suspect of extremism, terrorism and injustice to others. Those man-made earthly religions, especially the Sunnite religion, canonized their unjust rulings by distorting the terminology in the Glorious Quran, and applying it to the concepts of Islam and Beliefs, and by slanting Islamic Law through interpolations and interpretations of Quranic verses and the fable of abrogation-(Arabic: Neskh; which means to affirm, to copy and to write, they turned it to mean ,to omit, to abrogate) , in addition to fabricating divine narrations and narrations attributed to the prophet(PBUH), and writing the biography of the prophet(PBUH) to coincide with these lies and fabrications. The masters of these earthly man-made religions used Islam to serve and fulfill their material and political ambitions.

It is the natural right for every peaceful person to migrate with his beliefs and convictions and to practice it in whichever method he prefers.</span></strong></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: 15px"><strong><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">A genuine Islamic state is the one that guarantees freedom of religion, belief, thought and practice. People in it enjoy justice and kindness; they establish practice and enjoy Political Justice: DEMOCRACY.</span></strong></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: 15px"><strong><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">It is not the duty of an Islamic State to bring people into paradise or guide them to Truth, since it is a personal responsibility. Whoever follows guidance, it is for his benefit, and whoever goes astray, the consequence of that falls on him. The duty and function of the Islamic State is to serve its citizens, guarantees their rights and preserve their dignity.</span></strong></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: 15px"><strong><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">By that definition, no Islamic state exists in our times, rather oppressive regimes raising the banners of Ethnicity, Nationality or Religious slogans, all of which to deceive people.</span></strong></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: 15px"><strong><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">Islamic State exist in the West, Europe, America, Canada and Japan, where there is democracy, justice and human rights, that is why Arabs and Muslims migrate to the West, fleeing with their religion or in pursuit of making a living and a free dignified life. You will never find a European or an American migrating to an Arab country, fleeing with his religion. Even Israel, with its secularism and its brand of democracy is better than those unjust oppressive Muslim States. If the doors of immigrations to Israel were open to non-, Jews, millions of Arabs and Muslims would migrate to it. This means, the true belonging for Man is where he finds his freedom, dignity and rights, that is how belonging to Islam coincides with genuine belonging of Man.</span></strong></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt"><span style="font-size: 15px"><strong><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">It is belonging to freedom and justice; but if justice is lost and freedom is confiscated at home, then Almighty Allah&rsquo;s land is very spacious, where you can find equality, justice, freedom and equal opportunity.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;</span></strong></span></div>
