Short Description
Dear brothers;
In a trial to understand why a big ummah like the Muslim one receives every day a blow or stab from different types of nations.
Why a huge ummah like our ummah has a sluggish reaction to some major events happening to it.
- Palestine
- Bosnia
- Kashmir
- Chechnya
Why this can occur although we have different resources
The resources of human power; one billion and many of them love Islam and they dream with that day when they see Islam dominating this world.
Resources of land with different with different environments, so we have most of the treasures of the earth from oil, iron, copper, and gold
Resources of water
Resources of food
Resources of seas
Resources of wealth
Some countries are among the richest countries of the world, so Muslims are among the richest individuals in the world.
Why an ummah with these resources accept to be defected every day? Why we accept to be followers rather than leaders?
I mentioned in last Friday khutba that our problem is in understanding.
These are some concepts that are misunderstood and finally led to our situation.
This is very critical
We have a lot of gifts, a lot of resources, but we just need to understand.
If you are dreaming with that day n which you will see Islam dominating this world, please concentrate with me
What are the misconceptions?
1- The problem of each country should be solved by its own inhabitants, and we conclude that the boundaries between the Muslim countries are artificial and should have no role in separation between the hearts of the Muslim nation. This is in fact whether we like it or not.
2- Our right can't be gained through the united nation, or USA. Allah says: (the Jews and Christians will never be satisfied with unless you follow their religion)
3- No politics in Islam and Islam is a complete religion, a complete way of life. Islam should govern our politics, our economics, our social life, our morals, etc.
Today, we have another misconception that participates in our bad situation. In fact, this factor alone can kill any nation.
This misbehavior is our belief that the power of the west and Jews is not amenable to destruction.
The belief that whatever we did, we will remain behind them
The belief that no hope of success
The belief that our domination of the world is just a history
And, to my knowledge, this belief is against all the Islamic rules
This belief is killing for any nation and you will never be able to succeed except after we can get rid of this belief
Islamic fact:
Allah says: (but honor belongs to Allah, His Messenger, and to the believers, but the hypocrites do not know)
This is a fact
Whether we are able to achieve or not
Whether we are convinced or not
Whether we have resources or not
However;
The hypocrites are not convinced by this fact
They look only to materialistic power and conclude that the honor will be with enemy of Islam
Not only they believe in that, but they put their hands in the hands of the disbelievers and ask for their support and help.
Allah says: (O you, who believe, do not take the Jews and the Christians as friends and patrons. They are friends and patrons to each other, and who amongst you that turn to them is of them. Verily, Allah does not guide the unjust people)
So, you see these with a disease in their hearts. How eagerly they run about them saying: we do fear a change of fortune bring us a disaster.
Perhaps Allah will give you victory or a decision from Him, then they will regret of the thoughts which they secretly had in their hearts.
So, brothers, it is clear, those who feel that the west or the Jews is the more powerful ummah, so they went to them to ask for their help and loved them, then they are the hypocrites.
So, we should correct our beliefs according to the Islamic concept.
A fact: Allah will bring the victory to the believers whatever the power of our enemy is!
Dear brothers;
The way of Allah is to make the believers weak and few, then after seeing their patience and their belief that their persistence on his way, He will support them and bring victory for them.
The wisdom behind that is to test people, who enters Islam to satisfy Allah and who enters Islam because it is just powerful.
However, Allah always gives glad tidings to the believers and give them the hope of success.
Look brothers;
Allah talks to the believers in Mecca, in a very weak period in Islam.
They are tortured every day, defected every day, in a very painful state, and the disbelievers also were so powerful, yet Allah holds the disbelievers who were defeating Muslims as follows: (do they not travel through the earth and see what was the end of those before them, though they were superior to them in strength)
Allah is never frustrated by anything whatever in the heaven or on the earth, for He is all-knowing and All-Powerful.
Dear brothers:
Power is a relative term
Compare my power to the power of my 1-year daughter, then compare my power to the power of you, then compare my power to the power of the champion of the world, and so forth.
Now, compare the power of the Jews, Christians, united nation, all the world, nuclear power, to the power of Allah. There is no comparison.
The power of Allah is absolute.
People of `Ad did not understand this fact, and they behaved arrogantly through the land against all truth and reason and said: who is superior to us in strength? Did they not see that Allah who created them is superior to them in strength? But they continued to reject our signs.
Dear brother;
The power of Allah is absolute
Allah will never be frustrated
The mighty and power of Allah can't be defeated
This is the question
The answer of this question: how to bring the support of Allah to our side will be the subject of the next khutba inshallah
But let me ask you some questions
Did you ever think why Allah made the Friday prayer 2 rakah while Dhudr is 4? The answer is that the khutba is instead of 2 rakahs, and this is why if you missed the Friday prayer, you pray it 4 rakhas.
Did you ever think why talking is forbidden during khutba, even saying: shut up
Did you ever think why the first line is more rewarded and those who came early as if they gave charity by camel, then by cow, then by sheep, and so on, while those who come after the Imam ascend the pulpit have no reward.
Put all these facts together, you will understand that Allah wants you to attend this khutba from the start to the end with full concentration. So, I hope next Friday we see a completion, peaceful completion on the first line.
