The Sunnite Religion and the Loss of Islamic Acts of Worship
Published in November 5, 2008
Translated by: Ahmed Fathy
Introduction:
1- In the 1990s, we once visited Tunisia upon receiving a formal invitation from the Tunisian Minister of Religious Endowments at the time, and we delivered a speech to the attendees of a conference who were scholars and sheikhs of Al-Zitouna University (their Azhar-like institution), and we could not help but notice that most of the clergymen in this conference smoked cigarettes. At the time, we used to assume that smoking is against Islamic teachings; this is before we get to know the Quranic methodology regarding prohibitions and permissible items. We condemned their smoking and attributed it to the secular nature of Tunisians as opposed to Sunnite extremism that opposes the regime there. When we narrated this matter to a friend in Cairo, who was a heavy smoker, he told us that there is nothing in Islam that prohibits smoking at all; if we to prohibit things harmful to one's health, one would not eat or drink anything! We talked to him about his wasting his money by burning them when he smokes, and he gave up smoking, only for a while! Later on, we are convinced that smoking is NOT prohibited as per Quranic sharia laws regarding the prohibited items and the permissible items; since smoking is never mentioned at all in the Quran, it is permissible. When we have written about this, we have been persecuted and until now, we receive verbal abuse via emails.
2- We are not to hide the Truth to seek to please people; it is insulting to God and His Quranic sharia to add to it a notion never mentioned; i.e., by imagining that smoking is prohibited. It is a bad habit that people in Egypt utter the word (haram) (i.e., prohibited) in their daily life without thinking about it in various silly situations! The matter is serious when a husband utters this world to his wife; this is a form of divorce mentioned in the verses 58:2-4 that must be atoned for by fasting for 60 consecutive days; it is just like the atonement for manslaughter in the verse 4:92.
3- The above points are directly linked to our topic ofthe loss of Islamic acts of worship by the Sunnite religion; piety is the keyword here. We do not mean to praise ourselves – heaven forbid! – but we analyze the situations in the above points to reach a conclusion; this is the intelligence of research and reaching results. Sadly, there are those people with high IQ but they use their intelligence in evil ways and deceive people; we mean Sunnite and Wahabi clergymen who deceive millions of gullible persons. Within researching the Quran, not only IQ is needed, but also piety so as not to misuse, twist, and misinterpret Quranic verses deliberately and conceal true meanings of them to serve evil purposes and accommodate and incorporate myths of earthly religions. If we were an evil person who seeks $ millions, we'd have surpassed other thieves of Al-Azhar among our contemporaries inside and outside Egypt and clergymen outside Al-Azhar as well, as they never read or understand anything and any one with low IQ may surpass them in swindling. Wahabis in Egypt at first lay great hopes on our person as our PhD thesis debunks Sufism, as Sufis are the arch-enemies of Wahabis/Salafists. In the 1980s in Egypt, we used to move from one mosque to another in many Egyptian cities (in Nile Delta and Upper Egypt, in Cairo, and in Alexandria) to deliver lectures and sermons against Sufism, helped by Salafists who received funding from the KSA, who made me supervisor of the Salafist magazine in Cairo titled (Al-Huda Al-Nabawi) i.e. Prophetic Guidance. We refused to take money from those Salafists who helped us to enter into these mosques. So that we would be free in saying whatever we want in our lectures and sermons. We were a 'moderate' Sunnite at the time. Later on, with deeper research, we have discovered that the Sunnite religion has nothing to do with Islam and that it poses a veritable danger on Islam. We could no longer succumb to Sunnite falsehoods or spread them in our sermons and to confine our refutations to Sufi and Shiite religions. We decided to attack and refute the Sunnite religion with all our might; we have declared our rejection of all hadiths and Sunna, proving how they contradict the Quran. we knew that the evil agents of the KSA in Egypt would not leave us in peace; we were – and still are – bent on reforming Muslims by Qurnaism and we were ready to face harm and persecution for God's sake. If we were to choose to side with Sunnite/Wahabi falsehoods to gain $ millions from the KSA, we would not be safe from God's revenge in this world and the next. Ailment and death might have come to us sooner to prevent us from enjoying these ill-gotten millions, and then we would dwell in Hell for eternity for ascribing lies to God and His religion. As a true believer, we choose to reject Wahabi/Saudi money offered to us and decided to be vociferous and outspoken in spreading the Quranic Truth and debunking the Sunnite religion of Satan, which is posing as if it were Islam. Life is a series of stances, situations, and choices, and only pious people pass the test of life successfully, seeking Paradise of the Lord God in the Hereafter. We have made revisions and sifting processes of all our beliefs, tenets, and notions till we formulated Quranism as True Islam as we learn every day from the Quran rules we have not notice before; we are bet on declaring the Quranic Truth so that we would not be cursed by God and the angels and people: "Those who suppress the proofs and the guidance We have revealed, after We have clarified them to humanity in the Scripture – those – God curses them, and the cursers curse them." (2:159).
4- If Muhammadans were really Muslims who adhere to piety, they would have been indeed the best nation seen by other nations; if Sunnite fiqh scholars were pious, they would not have lost and wasted Quranic sharia laws in prohibitions and permissible items as well as in acts of worship. Loss of piety is behind the loss of acts of worship.
Firstly: the loss of piety since 1400 years until now:
(A)
After our previous articles about prohibitions and fasting and how that smoking never spoils the fasting, we have received hate mails and verbal abuse that we overlooked as usual, but some people choose to mock us by sending silly and illogical questions to us, and we provide examples below.
1- Someone has chosen to ridicule us by posing this question: is gay sex never spoiling to fasting since it is not mentioned in the Quran as such like conjugal sex with one's wife?!
2- A homosexual person told us that he can bear not to smoke during days of Ramadan while fasting, but he cannot refuse his 'boyfriend' in bed during the hours of fasting, and he asks us if he is allowed to have sex while fasting with his 'friend'!
3- Other silly, sex-obsessed people and sex-maniacs asked us if masturbation never spoils fasting during Ramadan and posed the same question about lesbian sex, drugs, wine, and smoking hash! All these people asserted that these practices must not spoil the fasting since the Quran specifies that fasting is spoiled only if one drinks, eats, or have sex with spouse(s). These silly questions aims to mock our person, of course, as homosexual and lesbian practices are prohibited all the time and so is wine-drinking. Piety is the conscience of a fasting person who fears God and never spoils the fasting even when being alone. Most people overlook that piety is the legislative purpose of fasting and that we do not need these sully questions posed to fiqh scholars about the social habit/custom of fasting while disregarding piety, as habitual and typical of Sunnites and some Quranists still influenced by Sunnite books! This is why we add the following to what we have already written about fasting.
There is a huge difference between right fasting in terms of ostentatious behavior and appearance and the one deemed rewarded by and acceptable to God. within earthly, man-made religions, the focus and emphasis are on appearances of religiosity of rituals and how people seem to appear outwardly. This is typical in Sunnite fiqh that never focuses on piety and fear of our Lord God. as for real Islam, piety in the fear of our Lord Allah is part and parcel in all acts of worship ordained by God, not the ones invented within man-made sharia laws. All acts of worship must be devoted and dedicated 100% to God and are reflected in good manners and good deeds with other people without waiting to be rewarded by them, while only expecting rewards from Almighty God. In light of this, we assert the following points about fasting people and we answer the questions some persons posed as we have mentioned above.
1- There are those who overtly, during Ramadan days, stop having sex with spouse(s) and stop consuming food items and all beverages, and inwardly seize the opportunity of Ramadan to attain piety by avoiding sins and even small mistakes, so that their past sins may be forgiven, and they spend days and nights of Ramadan in good deeds to atone for their previous sins. These are the really pious ones provided that they are monotheists and NOT polytheists who worship books, items, mausoleums, or mortals. Thus, these people observe fasting and piety inwardly and outwardly and God will reward them for this on the Last Day.
2- There are those who overtly, during Ramadan days, stop having sex with spouse(s) and stop consuming food items and all beverages, but they are entrapped in corrupt religiosity of polytheistic, earthly, man-made religions of the Muhammadans as they; e.g., spend nights of Ramadan in worshipping mausoleums in mosques, assuming that they this way please ad gratify God! this fasting persons are polytheists, and this applies also to those who praise and glorify Muhammad alongside with God, thus deifying Muhammad and assume he would own and control the Last Day by the myth of intercession. Thus, they invent and utter devoutly words and phrases that praise and glorify Muhammad as if he were an infallible deity. Those fasting persons will never get rewarded for their fasting as polytheism annuls all good deeds, and if they die as polytheists without repentance, they will certainly enter into Hell for eternity on the Last Day.
3- There are those who overtly, during Ramadan days, stop having sex with spouse(s) and stop consuming food items and all beverages, but they never hesitate or think twice about committing crimes/injustices/sins against people and major sins against our Lord God, as they are never observing piety at all, and their fasting will avail them nothing at all, and if they die as aggressive hypocrites and polytheists without repentance, they will certainly enter into Hell for eternity on the Last Day.
4- There are those who overtly, during Ramadan days, stop having sex with spouse(s) and stop consuming food items and all beverages, but they use fasting as a pretext for lack of good manners, verbally abusing people, and negligence of work and responsibilities, and they never stop sinning during Ramadan; their fasting will avail them nothing at all, as they never attain piety this way.
5- There are those whose ill health prevents their fasting, but they observe piety all the time and do more good deeds to compensate for their having to eat and drink, and they are rewarded by God though they did not fast, as they observed piety indeed; they are better that those who observe fasting out of social habit and celebration without this resulting in high morals and piety and devotion in acts of worship dedicated only to God.
(B)
The loss of piety for 1400 years made people lose the merits of fasting during Ramadan; Muhammadans in that holy month keep their eyes glued to the TV screens and they overeat till their stomachs are on the verge of bursting, this is apart from gullible ones visiting mausoleums and 'holy' tombs in many cities, esp. in Yathreb to worship at the one ascribed falsely to Muhammad as his tomb. All such bad deeds are being committed by Sufis, Sunnites, and Shiites, who lost all piety and turned acts of worship into mere mechanical meaningless movements.
Secondly: the loss of piety is caused by Sunnite fiqh scholars in their invented, earthly sharia laws:
1- The same loss of piety by Sunnites is also related to all other acts of worship such as prayers and pilgrimage, and for more details, we refer our readers to our books on prayers and pilgrimage. The book on pilgrimage titled "Pilgrimage between Islam and the Muhammadans" (in English) is found in this link (http://www.ahl-alquran.com/arabic/book_main.php?main_id=90). In that book on pilgrimage, we mention that Muhammadans made hajj as an act to annul all sins of a lifetime, so that they go on with their corruption and sins when they return home! In our book on prayers, we mention that prayers and all acts of worship by the Sunnite Muhammadans are devoid of piety and never lead to high moralistic level and they assume their sins are forgiven once they pray the five prayers regularly, and this made them commit more sins! The blame for this Satanist notion is on Sunnite imams and authors who never feared God. Quranists aim to introduce reform to save souls of as many persons as possible.
2- God gave us but one Clear Book; there is no room for any other 'revelations' after Muhammad died. As for Quranic sharia laws, one cannot add to them within the field of prohibited and permissible items and acts of worship, but there is room for regulating permissible items and values of justice, etc. as we have explained in a previous article. Really pious ones cannot disregard the Quran in favor of man-made rules of Sunnite imams. Let us assume that a university professor gave students a book to study to pass a test, would these students study other books instead?! If so, they will fail the test, and Sunnites (and all Muhammadans) will fail the test of life if they go on disregarding the Quran and focusing on man-made books with rules never ordained by God but issued by self-deifying imams who rejected and disobeyed God's Word. There is no room to add man-made legislations in Islamic acts of worship; there is room for competition and vying for making as many good deeds as possible. For instance, as for fasting, one may fast despite one's illness or traveling if one physically is able to do so, and one can fast days outside Ramadan, and one can observe piety and the fear of the Lord God all one's lifetime as much as one can. In Zakat, one can pay and donate as much as one can afford all year long, and in prayers, one can pray additional prayers after night prayers while reading the Quranic verses, as per the Quran. one may perform pilgrimage more than ones and observe piety in Mecca. Thus, one this way does not add new sharia laws but attempts (within equal opportunity) to be among either parties in Paradise: the forerunners or those on the right, as per the Quranic Chapter 56. Sunnite authors and imams had no piety as they invented their own sharia laws and ascribed them by force to Islam, under the silly names of Sunna and hadiths.
3- It is strange that Sunnite hadiths and fiqh rules are contradictory and have ample rooms for discrepancies within the endless chattering and blabbering in their books, and they even have a hadith that annuls all hadiths: the one regarding the grave sin (punishable in Hell) of adding 'new' things to religion, this means that Al-Shafei, for instance, was sinful for inventing hadiths not authored by his tutor Malik! Or that Al-Bokhary was sinful for inventing hadiths not authored by previous imams of Satan! What about the rest of Sunnite imams of all eras?! The Sunnite religion rules now are like a bottomless, shoreless ocean filled with lies and falsehoods; Satan/Iblis never tendered his resignation; his mission goes on to misguide most human beings till the end of days.
Thirdly: the topic of prayers as an example of the loss of Islamic acts of worship:
The Quran was made to descend on Muhammad to be recited to people who assume wrongly they adhere to the religion of Abraham as they are descendants of his son Ishmael, and some of Arabian men were Jews who read Torah of Moses and scrolls of Abraham; see 53:36-37. Thus, in the religious life of Arabian people in Arabia in the 7th century, there were true, divine notions and false, corrupt ones. The religion of Abraham was twisted and distorted and the Quran came down to correct it within new sharia laws that does NOT mention what is already known (like prayers' timing and movements), as the focus is on correcting deviations, distortions, and errors, beside introducing some new legislations (e.g., ablution). The descendants of Abraham (Israelites and Ishmaelites) knew about prayers and their timings, but they performed them as movements without piety; this is why God in the Quran commands them to observe piety in prayers without discussing how to pray; see 2:238, 2:45, and 4:142. God rebukes them for being lazy about prayers in 9:54, as their lack of piety and their polytheism will make them enter into Hell in case of their death without repentance. Indeed, the five daily prayers are five meetings a day with God and preserving the link between us and Him all day long; this must result in piety and to avoid sins and mistakes; how come that a sinner is expected to attain piety through prayers since he/she insist on sinning?! When Muhammad was once preaching within a Friday sermons, many people left him to get to see a caravan of merchants, and God has rebuked them in the verses 62:9-10, without mentioning how to perform Friday congregational prayers, as they were known before the birth of Muhammad. New sharia laws of ablution, Tayammum, and complete ablution are introduced in other verses: 4:43 and 5:6 and about fear prayers (e.g., in times of wars and being chased) in the verses 4:100-103 and 2:238 as a new notion. Piety in prayers is asserted within monotheism by never mentioning names of anyone but God during prayers in mosques and at homes; see 20:14, 72:18, and 24:39. Thus, real Muslims must obey and follow ONLY the Quran; nothing else was ever given to Muhammad as part of Islam; other books of Sunnites are written in the Abbasid Era and such books of fiqh and hadiths have nothing to do with Islam, and prayers of the Sunnites lack piety and contain polytheism of mentioning names of Muhammad and 'saints' in them as immortal deities. Ostentatious behaviors supplant and replace piety: loud Azans and keenness on praying on time behind any bearded person even if he was an ignoramus! When the Egyptian State Security Apparatus men used to interrogate us, we noticed how they interrupted interrogations to perform prayers and then go one torturing citizens with zeal and enthusiasm! Thus, prayers of Sunnites are empty and never result in piety and fear of our Lord God, but they result in more corruption and injustices. This was also the state of affairs during the Mameluke Era of Egypt, as sultans build spacious, ornate mosques and prayed inside them while eating ill-gotten money and massacring and torturing innocent people! This is lack of piety that goes on until now in Egypt, as we mention in our Sufism encyclopedia within stories of unjust, tyrannical sultans who were keen on showing religiosity and hypocrisy all the time before eyes of their subjects. Thus, prayers of the Mamelukes led them to commit grave sins and injustices, and the dominant Sufi-Sunnite religion at that time made people succumb and submit to such evils as if part of Fate and as if human creatures were part of God and the divine will! This is according to Sufi polytheistic notions of the communion with God and being united as one with Him! This is as per Al-Ghazaly in his seminal book titled (Ehiaa Olom Eddine) or ''revival of religious sciences''. Such evil notions of Satan made all piety and all acts of worship lost for centuries.
Lastly:
The aim of this article is to make young Quranist researchers be aware of how to analyze Sunnite fiqh balderdash within books of Malik, Al-Shafei, and Al-Bokhary, and we provide in the ANNEX below titles of chapter of their books on subjects/topics of prayers, purity, and ablution to give examples of their endless details of useless nonsense and balderdash that they made as if part of God's sharia, not man-made views as they are, as there is no room for additions in acts of worship in real Islam. We desire to sensitize our young Quranist researchers regarding the features of man-made, earthly religious sharia laws and legislations of the Muhammadans below.
1- Adding sharia laws never mentioned in the Quran and providing for them new terminology fabricated by them.
2- Adding myriads of details about (im)purity, while disregarding the topic in Quranic Chapters Four and Five
3- Adding useless details about Friday congregational prayers and mentioning discrepancies and contradictions within even the one book by one author.
4- Inventing payers and acts of worship never ordained by God like feasts prayers.
5- Adding the glorification, sanctification, and deification of Muhammad in all acts of worship, especially prayers.
6- Preventing menstruating women from performing prayers and preventing all people from praying at certain times for no reason at all.
7- Allowing for no reason to combine prayers while traveling and this contradicts the Quran.
8- Casting doubts on the five daily prayers by Al-Bokhary.
These are but few examples, and we mention in the following ANNEX some tittles of chapter of these books of Talmud-like countless details, to show to our readers and to our young Quranist researchers how silly these Sunnite topics/titles are. Silly Sunnites who hate Quranism ask us until now: how would we know purification and prayers if we are to reject Sunna hadiths?! As if cleaning oneself needs endless Sunnite rules of Malik, Al-Shafei, and Al-Bokhary, and as if how to perform prayers given down from Abraham's generation till today's generation need to be explained. May God curse polytheists who never care to read our articles and books, and May God help Quranists to spread the Quranic Truth.
