THE DUBIOSITY & DEVIANCE OF THE ULAMA
Regarding the stances of the Ulama – of those perceived to be Ulama-e-Haq – we reproduce the following letter by Qalamul Haq:
Respected Maulana Ebrahim Pandor saaheb
Taking into account your relationship and khilafa from Mufti Mahmood saaheb and your seniority we would like to enquire:
What exactly is holding you in the organization of JUSA?
What exactly would it take to call it quits?
Everyone knows you are a deputy president in name sake. You may or may not be gaining the perks of the position but you are definitely not playing the role.
Is Omar sulaiman the water ritual modernist someone you look up to? Does he fit into the line of the akabireen you know?
If not how can you be part of an organization that is actively corrupting Deen and aiming to corrupt the Ulama by bringing him as a role model?.
Claiming un-involvement does not absolve one. One can respectfully not be part and parcel of a cartel and more so one of the formal leaders but claim to be uninvolved in the actual operations of the cartel when the police arrive.
(end of letter)
We have reached the point where we genuinely feel that ALL should callout these sellouts and the senior/junior matter must not silence young Ulama nor the laypeople. We are calling the Ulama out and the public as well on this.
Just recently as you published regarding Isipingo Haj program, Al ansaar, the filthy organisation involved in every kind of filth (may even put jusa in the shadow with their filth) had Wifaq Aalim Mufti Emraan Vawda, Mufti AK hoosen who is using their platform to stream markaz Sahaaba daily and Moulana Ahmad Muhammady of JUKZN as speakers and they attended and gave their speeches or talks.
Is the fraternity of Haq becoming partisan! Are we not supposed to call out all deviance (notwithstanding our own sins and frailties)?
Kindly proffer some naseehat if we are wrong in our anger at what is going on around us.
May Allaah Ta’Aala keep you with Aafiyat.
With request for duas

Our Comment
It is just sad that Ridha Ilaah (The Pleasure of Allah) is no longer of paramount importance for the Ulama. Other imaginary ‘meritorious’ objectives are proffered to justify participation in baatil and with baatil. This is to be expected since we are in the era designated Aakhiruz Zamaan in which the Signs of Qiyaamah are materializing in swift succession and in abundance.
We are in the era in which pursuit of the dunya and fulfilling nafsaani objectives have become the norm. And, this is in fulfilment of the Hadith:
“The dunya shall be pursued with the amal of the Deen.”
“Ilm of the Deen will be acquired for purposes other than the Deen.”
Your anger is valid. It is termed Bughd fillaah (Anger for the sake of Allah). When the ‘fraternity of Haq becomes partisan’, then the Ulama of the fraternity cease being Ulama of the Haq.
Yes, all Muslims have the duty of offering Naseehat on these issues regardless of their sins. Indulgence in sin does not mean that the obligation of Amr Bil Ma’roof has to be abandoned. No one is free of sin.
