THE ANTI-MUSLIM RIOTING IN THE UK
An Aalim from the UK, commenting on the current rioting against Muslims in the U.K., writes:
We request duas for our situation in the UK. We would like to offer a brief explanation to the background as well as current events.
For a number of years we have drifted further and further away from Deen. Just to give an idea, in the UK during the Covid Plandemic prominent UK Molvies met and issued a corrupt fatwa asking Masjids to close their doors before the Government had issued any such directive. To this date not a single Molvi has apologised.
The Molvies themselves participate in venues of Fisq and Fujoor. To give a recent example: an event was held in which Muslim men and women rubbed shoulders together while inappropriately dressed. As if this was not bad enough, a prominent Molvi, a so-called Sheikhul Hadeeth attended this venue of vice and encouraged them to continue holding it.
Since October last year hundreds of protests have taken place in which every imaginable command of Allah Ta’ala was violated. Again the Molvies gave these marches their full blessings and approval.
We have been privately warning our friends, family, neighbours and Musallees for some years now that such behaviour is inviting the Athaab of Allah Ta’ala, but we were scoffed at and told we were paranoid.
Last week on Monday a criminal attacked a school in the UK murdering 3 small girls. Even though the perpetrator was not a Muslim, but because he was a foreigner, the British non-Muslim population has for the past week taken to the streets, rioted, attacked Muslim property and Masajid.
Please make dua that Allah Ta’ala eases our situation. We fear this is the beginning the Athab for our sins. We are requesting all to resort to tawbah and to mend our wicked ways.
We have also started making arrangements for defending our Masajid and homes. The issue we have is that due to the high number of Munafiqeen and bootlickers in our midst we are unable to collectively organise the defence of our areas. We remember the riots in South Africa only three years ago very well and it was only going to be a matter of time before it started here.
Is there anything else we could do to rectify our situation here, especially in light of the many Munafiqeen in our midst? (Only Inaabat Ilallaah is the solution. Nothing else will avail – The Majlis)
A dilemma we have is that on the one hand we are having to condemn our community for their fisq and fujoor and instruct all to turn to Allah Ta’ala but do we then encourage these same people to defend themselves? (Give them naseehat to resort to Taubah, Taa-at, Ibaadat and to defend themselves. But without Taubah, they will not gain the taufeeq to defend themselves. – The Majlis)
(End of the Aalim’s letter)
Referring to situations and upheavals of this kind, the Qur’aan Majeed states:
“Fasaad (anarchy) has appeared on the land and ocean as a consequence of the perpetrations of people, so that Allah gives them a taste of what they have perpetrated for perhaps they will return (to Siraatul Mustaqeem).”
The rioting against Muslims is undoubtedly a portion of the Athaab of Allah Ta’ala to warn and jolt us into the reality of understanding and reforming our treacherous conduct. The initial punishment is to create in Muslims the realization of reforming and returning to the Path of the Deen. That is what the Aayat states, viz., “Perhaps they will return.”
If the warning of Allah Ta’ala is not heeded, then will follow the greater Athaab. The lesser punishment (the current rioting) is the prelude for the greater Athaab regarding which the Qur’aan Majeed states:
“We shall most certainly give them to taste of the lesser punishment, not the greater punishment for perhaps they may return (to obedience).”
Let them understand that the Athaab-e-Akbar means DERACINATION – PULVERIZED AND UPROOTED, RIGHT AT THE ROOTS.
