Islamic Revival

The following is the transcript of a circle deliveered by a brother. وَمَنْ أَحْسَنُ دِينًا مِّمَّنْ أَسْلَمَ وَجْهَهُ لله وَهُوَ مُحْسِنٌ واتَّبَعَ مِلَّةَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَنِيفًا وَاتَّخَذَ اللّهُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ خَلِيلاً "Who can be better in religion than one who submits his whole self to Allah, does good, and follows the way of Abraham the true in Faith? For Allah did take Abraham for a friend." Abul al an’biya (father of the Prophets min al ulil Adham min arusl) Ibrahim (as). Ibrahim who was mentioned in 73 places in the Quran. In 25 Surahs of the book of Allah. Ibrahim, was born in Babylon in Iraq, the land of the Chaldeans (Al Kaldanieen), also known as Babylonia. At that time some people worshipped idols of stone and wood; others worshipped the planets, stars, sun and moon; still others worshipped their kings and rulers. Abraham was born into that atmosphere, into a typical family of that ancient time. The head of the family was not even an ordinary idolater, but w...

By Abid Mustafa Hamid Karzai has accused Pakistan of spurring the Taliban to carry out attacks against his fledgling government and the NATO troops that defend it. He is not alone in holding Pakistan responsible for the re-emergence of the Taliban. NATO commanders, the New York Times and the International Crisis Group (ISG) have all pointed the finger at Pakistan for fomenting the Pushtoon resistance that shows no sign of abating. On its part, the Musharraf government vehemently denies such accusations and continues to blame Karzai’s government for its failure to include the Taliban and other militants as part of the national reconciliation drive. It must be stressed here—Pakistan is almost isolated on its present stance—evidence to the contrary shows that Islamabad has actively nurtured Taliban fighters to reassert their authority on towns and villages ceded to US led forces in the aftermath Taliban’s collapse during the winter of 2001. Oddly enough, the Whitehouse instead of holding ...

“For Hajj are the months well known. If anyone undertakes that duty therein let there be no obscenity or wickedness nor wrangling in the Hajj. And whatever good you do Allah knows it. And take a provision for the journey but the best of provisions is right conduct. So fear Me. O Men of understanding.” [TMQ Al-Baqarah: 197] Dear brothers and sisters, the days of Hajj are upon us! May Allah (swt) reward those amongst us who have left and enable those who were unable to undertake this blessed journey to fulfil it in the future. For it is an obligation from the pillars of Islam, the reward of which the Prophet (saw) has spoken about. Abu Huraira narrated that Allah's Apostle (saw) was asked, "What is the best deed?" He replied, "To believe in Allah and His Apostle.” The questioner then asked, "What is the next (in goodness)? He replied, "To participate in Jihad in Allah's Cause." The questioner again asked, "What is the next?" He replied, ...

This is a transcript of a circle given in the past. “The Jews & Christians will not be pleased with you until you follow their way” [TMQ 2: 120] • Christmas – atmosphere everywhere, decorations, christmas trees, xmas gifts, parties, Santa claus even in non-Christian society as it is a celebration of Capitalism, not just a celebration of Christianity On the eve of the mid-winter Christian festival of Christmas in 2002, the leader of the Anglican Church, Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams in UK, bemoaned the decline of religion in Britain and urged that ‘morality’ guide life in Britain: “We are still, in this country, at sea over what concrete moral content we want to see in our children’s education . . . Family continuity is rare, conventional religious practice is minimal, shared public activity unusual.” Christian clergymen regularly vent their frustration at the decay of the family unit and the decline in religious practice in Western Capitalist societies. The frustration is...

The following is the transcript of a circle I have in the past on this subject. • Since the abolishment of Islam, from life, as a ruling system, the state of the Ummah has been declining from one bad stage to a worse one. The Ummah is being ruled by Kufr laws, dominated by Kufr concepts, invaded by the West with its corrupt culture and repugnant promiscuity, and as a result, it has corrupted the Ummah’s Deen, ethics and future generations. The Western beacons, symbols, concepts, and occasions have become those of the Ummah. The West has been aided by the rulers of the Muslims who have devoted themselves to keeping Islam away from life and fighting off its thoughts and concepts, thus moulding the Ummah to the West’s desire. • Celebrating the Christian holidays, such as Christmas and the Christian New Year is part of the Western culture that is imposed on the Muslims. In imposing such culture, the West intended for the Muslims to accept and recognise the Christian rituals, and believe in...

Muslims worldwide aspire for unity and the return of the Islamic Caliphate. As recent surveys show the majority of Muslims in some of the major Muslim countries want a Caliphate. But does a 21st century Caliphate have any chance of being established or are Muslims just dreaming? You can read what the ‘experts’ say here and what a ‘leading journalist’ says here. I have summarised the main points below. The Muslim world is too diverse. Different languages, customs and traditions Nationalism and is too deeply rooted Sunni / Shia differences Muslim rulers prefer to live separately in nation states The Muslim world is too diverse with different languages, customs and traditions It’s true there are multitudes of languages, foods, clothing and other customs prevalent in the Muslim world. But this diversity is meaningless when it comes to the political system ruling the country. Political systems do not develop from people eating the same food or being the same colour skin. They develop from a...
