Q&A: The “Smelting” Process Before and After the Establishment of the Islamic State

By
Question:
Asalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullah Wa Barakatuhu,
What is your vision for the method of carrying out the “smelting” process after taking power? Will it be through group culturing circles (Halaqat) or lectures, or through Media and Education Curriculum? Jazak Allah Khair
From Mustapha El Mawed
Answer:
Wa Alaikum us Salaam Wa Rahmatullah Wa Barakaatuhu
Before answering your question, I would like to quote an extract from the book“At-Takatul Al-Hizbi” (Structuring of a Party) that defines the “smelting” process: “… an ideological Hizb which would progress naturally in two tracks: First, through multiplication it will generate other cells which embrace the ideology with complete awareness and comprehension; and second, through creating and building general awareness about the ideology throughout the Ummah. The general awareness about the ideology will lead to the unification of the thoughts, opinions, and beliefs within the majority if not the whole of the Ummah. Hence the objective of the Ummah, as well as her convictions (qana’aat) and her outlook on life, will be unified. Therefore, the Hizb will serve as a melting pot, which would melt the Ummah and purify her from the impure and the corrupt ideas that led to the decline of the Ummah, or developed during the era of decline. The Hizb should undertake this melting process within the Ummah, thus leading to the revival of the Ummah. This is a tedious process that can only be undertaken by a Hizb that lives its idea, devotes its entire life to the idea, and is aware of its every single step.”
Thus, the party will carry out the “smelting” process in the Ummah, and it uses whatever means and methods accessible for it to do so in the best manner… The party now is carrying out this process with the methods and means available to it … And after the establishment of the state, Allah willing, the party will continue the process, Allah willing … but the difference lies in the following areas:
A-  Islam is what will be implemented after the establishment of the state, and this no doubt will have a strong impact on the acceleration of the “smelting” process … because the system and the actions to take care of the affairs of the people is in line with the “smelting” process carried out by the party, which is contrary to the existing reality, where the Kufr (disbelief) systems are implemented on the Muslims, and they  are governed by rulers hostile to the Ummah and its Deen, which makes the success of the smelting process difficult.
B – The effective means and methods which the party can access to reach the people will be available without restriction, because the State is obligated by the Shariah to allow the work of the political parties based on Islam. It is also obligated to support these political parties in their work … so television, radio, the Internet, mosques and various forums … and all the means and methods such as those mentioned in the question will be at the disposal of the political parties without obstacles or disturbances … And this no doubt will accelerate the process leading to the “smelting” and will lead to its completion and success, by the permission of Allah.
Of course, the party will continue all its work: the individual culturing and group culturing, and ideological and political struggle and adopting the interests of the Ummah …
C – The implementation of Islam by the state will have an effective contribution in creating public awareness in the whole Ummah. This public awareness of the ideology will establish the unification of ideas, opinions and convictions of the Ummah… and this speeds up the “smelting” process, and the revival of the Ummah… and so the work in this area will be easier and faster, Allah willing, after the establishment of the state than before it. …
I hope that the subject is clarified adequately with the permission of Allah سبحانه وتعالى.

Your brother,
Ata Bin Khalil Abu Al-Rashtah

An advice to Muslims working in the financial sector

By
Assalam wa alaikum wa rahmatullah wabarakatahu, Dear Brothers & Sisters, We are saddened to see Muslims today even those who practise many of the rules of Islam are working in jobs which involve haram in the financial sector. They are working in positions which involve usurious (Riba) transactions, insurance, the stock market and the like. Even though many of the clear evidences regarding the severity of the sin of Riba are known, some have justified their job to themselves thinking that they are safe as long as they are not engaged in the actual action of taking or giving Riba. Brothers & Sisters, You should know that the majority of jobs in the financial sector, even the IT jobs in this area are haram (prohibited) as they involve the processing of prohibited contracts. If you work in this sector, do not justify your job to yourself because of the fear of losing your position or having to change your career, fear Allah as he should be feared and consider ...

Authenticity of ahadith on tall buildings in Makkah?

By
Question Are these   ḥadith  sound? Are the references provided correct and accurate? When you see the belly of Makkah will be cleft open and through it will be dug out river-like passages (i.e. tunnels) (or water in the road to Makkah), and you see the buildings surpass its mountains, then take care (or beware, or a variant has: then know that the matter is at hand, or then understand that the time of trial (Judgment day) is near at hand). [Narrated by Al-Azraqi in the Book of reports about Makkah – Kitab Akhbaar Makkah, Hadiyth-1725; A specific Hadiyth (in fact several related-Hadiyths) which prophesizes about this Tower. Itha ra’aitun mecca bu’ijat katha’ima, wa ya-tasawa bunyanuha ru’usa jibaliha, faqad athalati as-Sa’atu. When you see Mecca, its mountain with holes (pierced through them), and its buildings reach its mountain tops, then as-Sa’ah (the Hour) has already cast its shadow. [Suyuti] So when you see in Makkah that channels have already been dug (or tunnels b...

The Shariah rules relating to mixing between the sexes

By
In Islam, the basic principle of the interaction between men and women is segregation. This means that in all areas of life and in all places whether private or public, contact between men and women is generally prohibited. Many evidences establish the principle of not mixing between the sexes, and there are many ahadith which clarify that this is the case in both public and private areas: Abu Hurairah reported that the Messenger of Allah said: "The best rows for the men are the first rows and the worst rows for them are the last rows. The best rows for the women are the last rows and the worst for them are the front rows." The last rows are the best for the women because they are farther away from the men as against the first rows that are nearest to men's rows. [This is related by the group except al-Bukhari]  In Abu Dawud, p.284, Hadith No. 4931, it is narrated upon the authority of Aisha (ra) that she said: "I used to play with my friends and whenever the P...
