The worst crime
In Muslim countries, most of the crimes against Allah Sub’hana wa Ta’ala, Islam and Muslims haven’t been committed by non-Muslims. These are the works of so-called Muslims themselves. The objective of such crimes is not to take Muslims back to idolatry, atheism, or other non-Islamic faiths but to take them away from the Qur’anic guidance and the Prophet (peace be upon him)’s legacy. A man gets physical death if his body is invaded by lethal bugs, poisons, or cancer. He meets the spiritual death if his conceptual premise is infiltrated with the corrosive faiths, beliefs, or ideologies. The physical death doesn’t take one to the hellfire, but spiritual death definitely takes there for a period of infinity. This is why preventing spiritual death is the most important deed in Islam, nothing can be compared to that.
So, healers of spiritual ills get more importance and honour than healers of physical ills. More than hundred thousand Divine prophets were sent to carry out this task. Nothing is more important in Muslim life than execution of this prophetic legacy. As the viceroy of Allah Sub’hana Ta’ala, it is an obligation on every Muslim. But Muslims have badly failed to fulfil the obligation. It is indeed the root cause of all failures of Muslims.
One can save his soul from spiritual death and from the subsequent hellfire only by full adherence to the Qur’anic teaching and the teaching of the Prophet (peace be upon him). It is only possible through understanding of the Holy Qur’an. This is indeed the lifeline for the spiritual health of a man or woman. But now, the Muslims show their ugly defiance against that. As a result, spiritual cum ideological illness overwhelms Muslim lives. The spiritual ill-health exhibits through immorality, division, disintegration, deviation, corruption, and rebellion against the Qur’anic doctrine.
These so-called Muslims boast as proud defenders of divisive national boundaries, national flags, maps, and evil ideologies like nationalism, tribalism, monarchism, secularism, fascism, capitalism. Adherence to the Qur’anic roadmap is no more an objective in their lives. This is why building national, tribal, secular, or other forms of kuffar state become their political objective. And, establishing an Islamic state as per the Prophet (peace be upon him)’s legacy doesn’t enjoy any place in their lives. With an aim for dismantling any effort for an Islamic state, they even make a global coalition with the known infidels. As a result, the Qur’anic Islam with its sharia, hudud, shura, khelafa, jihad, and pan-Islamic brotherhood -as was practiced by the Prophet (peace be upon him) of Islam and his companions survive nowhere in more than 50 Muslim states.
Like any other human, Muslims are also under the All-Knowing Allah’s constant watch. Therefore, such a robust form of rebellion against His agenda and His prescribed deen –Islam, never goes unnoticed. And a rebellion against Allah Sub’hana wa Ta’ala never brings any blessing, rather earns the promised punishment. Hence such a rebellion of Muslims doesn’t go unpunished either. More than 1.5 billion Muslims’ status as the most powerless, defenseless and humiliated people on the earth and the ongoing deaths, rapes, evictions, and destruction in Muslims’ lives tell a lot about the intensity of such punishment. Moreover, such punishment doesn’t end here, this will continue for a period of infinity in the hereafter–as repeatedly told in the Holy Qur’an.
The lost immunity
Immunity against evil faiths, beliefs, or ideologies never grows from good physical health or affluent economy. One gets such immunity only if imbued with the Qur’anic knowledge and possesses fear of Allah Sub’hana wa Ta’ala -called taqwa. There exists no alternative means to build such immunity. Since such immunity is crucial for survival as a true Muslim amidst all forms of toxic ideologies, seeking Qur’anic knowledge was made obligatory from day one of Islam –more than a decade prior to five-time prayers, month-long fasting, zakat, and hajj.
Because of such immunity, the early Muslim could build up perfect moral health amidst all alluring sinful distractions in Makkah. The need for such an immunity is no less even today. Hence, seeking the Qur’anic knowledge is made obligatory for all ages. This is why “iqra” (means read) -a command to access Qur’anic knowledge is made the first word of the Holy Qur’an. It is very significant to note that Almighty Allah didn’t use any other expression to initiate His most important communication with mankind.
Acquiring the Qur’anic knowledge is so vital that any failure in the field leads only to disbelief in Islam and ultimately to hellfire. Hence, for men, women, and children, no other moral, social or educational service is more crucial than the provision of the Qur’anic education. To address such a critical need of mankind, the mosque –the house of Allah Sub'hana wa Ta'ala, was built as the first and the most important institution on earth. In fact, during the golden days of Islam, Muslims didn’t have any other institution apart from the premises of mosques to run mass education. Thus, it shows how the five-time prayer to Allah Sub’hana wa Ta’ala and seeking His Qur’anic knowledge should run side by side in the same Divine premise. Like two wings of a bird, these two twin projects of Islam are vital; a Muslim can’t grow up as a true Muslim if any of these two wings is missing or malfunctioning. Nor can serve the Islamic objectives.
The strategic importance of such twin projects becomes more pronounced even on the first day of the prophet of Islam (peace be upon him)’s arrival in Medina. He didn’t waste even a single day to start constructing this Divine institution there. Five-time prayers as well as educating the Muslims started on the same floor of the Prophet (peace be upon him)’s mosque from day one of the Islamic State in Medina.
The enemies of Islam are not ignorant of the true power base of Islam. Hence, they do not destroy agriculture, homes, highways, or industries of the Muslim countries; rather, they dismantle the mosque-based infrastructure of Qur’anic literacy. Because of the success of the enemy project, millions of mosques in the Muslim World now stand dysfunctional. The vast premises of the mosques are strictly restricted only to hold five-time prayers. This way the most vital wing of Islam now stays almost non-functional. As a part of the same inimical project against Islam, the anti-Islamic rulers of Muslim states allocate more money, manpower, and time to teach even evil ideologies -like secularism, nationalism, liberalism, kufr laws, riba-based banking, dance, drama, and music in state-run schools, colleges, and universities. They have stopped or strictly restricted the premises and resources to teach the Holy Qur’an and the Qur’anic language.
The powerful media organs are doing the same. This way the despotic tyrants and their cronies manipulate the huge state and non-state infrastructures to corrupt Muslim's mind and intellect. Thus, the taxpayers’ money is spent to hide the Qur’anic guidance and to guide people towards hellfire. Because of such corruptive institutions, Muslims now lead a life without the Qur’anic roadmap. As a result, the sovereignty of Allah Subhana wa Ta’ala, as well as the practice of sharia, hudud, khilafah, borderless pan-Islamic Muslim unity, jihad, and other basics of Islam, stand missing in Muslims’ life.
Because of the similar crimes by the Jews and the Christians, the great Abrahamic faith of full submission to the revealed commandments of Allah Sub’hana wa Ta’ala -as was practiced by Prophet Ibrahim (peace be upon him), Prophet Musa (peace be upon him) and Prophet Isa (peace be upon him) now stand almost extinct among the followers. Judaism and Christianity survive only as an archive of massive corruption on the polity of the original Divine faith. Like a Hindu temples, idols of Jesus and Mary are installed inside churches.
Muslims, too, have taken various routes of deviations. As a result, Islam that dismantled the divisive tribal and racial walls and raised pan-Islamic Muslim brotherhood and sharia-based finest civilization on earth, doesn’t exist anywhere in the Muslim World. In a true sense, Muslims now live without the Qur’anic Islam. What they follow are indeed the cultural, racial, tribal, or sectarian perversions of Islam.
Because of such perversion, even the so-called ulama and leaders of the so-called Islamic parties could maintain their tongue-tied silence and inaction even in absence of sharia, hudud, shura, khilafah, jihad, and pan-Islamic Muslim brotherhood in Muslim lands. Such silence matters a lot. It tells a lot about their conceptual corruption and disbelief in Qur'anic Islam. Like the cursed Jews and the deviant Christians, they also keep the Qur’anic Islam in the archive and not in practice. More awfully, most Muslims have even converted to evil ideologies like secularism, nationalism, capitalism, monarchism, liberalism, and socialism. As a result, they could stand shoulder to shoulder with the believers of the kuffar ideologies to resist the resurgence of Islam in any part of the Muslim World. They could even generate protracted wars to kill the passionate followers of Qur'anic Islam. They put a tag of terrorism on Islamists who want to establish an Islamic state on the Prophet (peace be upon him)’ legacy.
The corruptive engineering and the calamity
The corruptive social, cultural, and educational engineering by the secular rulers of the Muslim states has been so pervasive and deep that it could successfully kill the Qur’anic concept of Islam in most Muslims’ minds. As a result, Islamic prescriptions like the sovereignty of Allah Sub’hana wa Ta’ala, sharia, hudud, shura, khilafah, borderless Muslim brotherhood, and jihad in His way stand strange even to Muslims. As if, they have never heard of such Islamic jargons before. The ideological conversion has been so complete that these ideological converts call the Qur’anic Islam that has political, social, and civilizational aims as barbarism, backwardness or terrorism.
So, in opposing the Islamic way of life, the home-grown enemies of Islam look no different from the known kuffar of other faiths. Because of that, millions of such Muslims could be easily recruited by the native tyrannical despots or the invading foreign kuffar as servants to serve their anti-Islamic agenda. In the past, such de-Islamised people were used by the criminal rulers to kill even Imam Hussain –the leader of the youth in paradise and to abuse the family of Ali bin Abu Talib (ra) –the great hero of Islam.
Now, the same de-Islamised Muslims are being used by the imperialists and their local cronies to kill Islamists or dismantle Islamists’ governments in Muslim countries. This way the home-grown enemies of Islam could easily sustain their brutal occupation of the Muslim lands. As a result, the Islamic state that was established by the Prophet (peace be upon him) and his companions -that had sharia, sovereignty of Allah Subhana wa Ta’la, jihad against corruption, Quranic education, pan-Islamic brotherhood and Islam’s socio-economic policies exists nowhere in the Muslim World. This is indeed the worst outcome of the state-sponsored corruptive ideological engineering in Muslim countries.
