Read the Friday Sermon Below:
We should understand that women and
money are those basic things which if used correctly will guarantee stability
and progress to any family, community or nation and if these same are used
wrongly they will put that family, community or nation down the slippery road
of destruction.
As we all know the concept of freedom
in the West is quite different from what freedom is actually meant in terms of
one’s own life, choices and especially spiritual life. The freedom of women has
since long been a well-debated subject but the fact remains that the actual
freedom and rights of women were actually bestowed by Allah and His Beloved
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in an era where those rights and freedom were rare, for
only a few among the elite women enjoyed certain rights while all the rest were
deprived of them.
The West claims that it wants to
improve the life of women by:
a)
granting them freedom,
b)
financial independence and,
c)
allowing them to mix freely with men at all levels and in all
departments of life.
Let us just scratch the surface
and peep to analyze these claims. With regard to the freedom of women, a
non-Muslim white woman was employed in a Muslim School but with the condition
of wearing a cloak and even veiling her face. She complied and when asked after
some time how she felt in this garb, since their lifestyle is one of
semi-nudity, her spontaneous reply is an eye opener to reality. She said Islamic
lifestyle has given her freedom from western slavery.
In their culture a person is enslaved
to wearing a certain colour of shoe to match the dress. Then the nail polish,
lipstick, blush, etc., all have to match as well. In Islam simplicity is the rule
and by donning the cloak there is no need for this matching culture. On the
other hand Islam has taught basic hygiene and cleanliness. A medical doctor
writes in a medical journal that the West is 1400 years behind the East in
basic toilet hygiene. He says in the West toilet paper is used to
polish oneself with the excreta while in the East clean water is used to
cleanse oneself.
In the case of bathing in a bathtub,
there is filth which remains. Instead of cleansing themselves, they pollute all
that water with that filth; some of it even enters the mouth in the process.
A famous resort’s swimming pool was moreover
tested for urine which showed it contained 60% urine which just kept sparkling
with chemicals! What filth! O Muslims, are we going to opt for such a
lifestyle?
With regard to financial
independence, if it is worked out what a woman earns and in order to go out and
work what her wardrobe costs her, her travelling and keeping a maid to do her
house duties amongst other things, in most cases there will be no gain but
rather a deficit! Of course there can be no monetary figures that can be put on
the moral, social, religious and feminity losses when a woman leaves her
natural precincts and opts to work in an alien place to her exclusive biological,
moral, social and religious build-up. From a psychological point of view a
woman is not meant to go out and work. When she does she has to impress her
bosses/ superiors with her job. To
achieve this she has to give off more than she has for which she has to draw on
her reserves. Consequently when she returns home she is totally exhausted and
dehydrated, her children run up to her seeking love from their mother but what
can a tired working woman offer them? She gets irritated, pushes one out of the
room, slaps the other into silence and
sprawls on to the bed. The husband returns, also tired and hungry and very
often hunger transforms him into an angry man. Two negatives meet and the natural result is a
dispute.
An Islamic lifestyle is a balanced
one, the husband returns to a ready meal and a fresh family awaiting him. When
a woman has drawn on all her resources and is totally exhausted, she takes some
paracetamols to release her tension. When this does not work, she has to get
medication from a doctor which is nothing else but legal drugs. This in turn
takes its full toll on her with all its side-effects and now the last resort
and the best scapegoat is evil practices, sorcery to resolve her family and
life problems. Thus, false curers come into the picture with their so-called
magic. With such kinds of situations in many families, fraudulent businesses
have increased, robbing the Muslims of their Imaan, money and the women’s
sanctity. They do not really solve any problem but create bitter hatred,
enmity, suspicion, false accusations, etc., in closely knitted family circles. The
biggest of this magic is the Shaitaan box - with the introduction of the
television set, video cassettes, video CD, films contained in pen-drives and the
different channels - and the western lifestyle.
With these Haram weeds in our
lives we can never expect the roses of Islam to grow. Even if we send our most
pious person to the Ka’aba to make dua that we have planted seeds and
that Allah must let roses grow, it is against the Sunnat of Allah! It
does not happen! If someone wants
to send his daughter in a mixed place where there are women and men together –
for example a university where nowadays all evils exist, and one seeks prayers
for the daughter, then he must bear in mind that he is himself sending his daughter
in the rain and seeking dua that she does not get drenched.
I am not saying that seeking education is Haram
and not allowed for the daughter. On the contrary, it is very important to give
one’s daughter education, an overall education which includes not just academic
education but moral and spiritual education as well.
But one should be careful so that
daughters and sons do not let go of the Islamic precepts. As far as the
intermingling of sexes is concerned, statistics suffice to show what results this
produce. Abortions in millions are practiced during a year, of which about most
of them are done illegally, while the rest is done legally as per each country’s
standard. Yet, in the eyes of Islam, all abortion practices are illegal except
when the life of the mother is in danger.
The practice of abortion is most
cruel, yet the West accuses Islam of barbaric practices. Thus, when Islam
commands the taking of a life for a crime committed, it is barbaric. When
millions of innocent infants are killed in the most savage way [by the West],
it is medical advancement, culture and civilization. Oh Allah! In which world
are we living?
Islam’s law of justice guarantees strict
citizen safety and protection. For practical results, look at the Muslim
countries which still adheres to the dictates of the Qur'an for protection of
the life, property and honour of the citizens.
Now, if we look at the West, its
universities teach filthy lies in law, and psychology, which forces innocent
people to live in the prisons of their homes with burglar bars while the crooks
roam the streets freely. Even the mosques in the Western are not safe and need
to have burglar bars and be locked. Little girls are gang-raped and the beasts
are let loose on petty bail, which they skip also. Furthermore, look at the
statistics! More than 227 million women worldwide become pregnant each
year, and roughly two-thirds of them deliver live infants. The remaining
one-third of pregnancies ends in miscarriage, stillbirth, or induced abortion.
There are an estimated 56 million abortions taking place worldwide, out of
which 25 millions are unsafe.
Thus, millions young girls become
pregnant in one year of which one third go for abortions. The single major
factor which causes girls to drop out of schools is pregnancies. A woman
confesses that 90% of girls are first ‘used’ by their own fathers, the majority
of them before reaching the age of 6. She herself was ‘used’ by her father at
the age of 5.
A writer by the name of Jamaluddin
confesses that the only reason for bringing out women into the male
dominated modern merry-go-round (the commercial world) is to satisfy the lust
of men. A Muslim woman writes in the Lenasia Times how her Muslim boss ‘trapped’
her and broke up her marriage. An air hostess confesses that their supervisors demand
sex favours for promotions. The unwritten law of this evil merry-go-round is:
no sex no employment, no sex no promotion. The writer further states that women
are mere flower pots and door mats of this merry-go-round. Modern women are
humiliated, enslaved, dehydrated and dehumanized. When this princess or queen
leaves the palace of the father or husband and goes into the vicious outside
world, she is like a sheep that enters the den of the wolves which pounce on her naivety and
unawareness. It is narrated in a Hadith that when a woman steps out of her
fort, Shaitaan is waiting in ambush for her. It is also narrated that when she
emerges Shaitaan beautifies her in the eyes of other men and she becomes the
cause of driving a wedge between husband and wife.
The open result of this western,
liberated way of life is rape, divorce (leaving in its wake heartache and pain)
and consequently delinquents, drugs, alcohol, incest and child abuse. Their
parliaments have legalized homosexuality where Mr. John marries Mr. Jack,
announces it in newspapers and celebrates it. The animal kingdom of the West!
When a woman leaves her natural precincts she loses her greatest physical
capital: her feminity. A working woman loses her motherhood and her wifehood.
Upon analysing the modern dictates which governs the woman, the modern thoughts
is that when a woman works in her own house she is backward but when she works
for someone else she is progressive. When she feeds her family, she is backward
but when she feeds people in a restaurant or an aircraft, she is progressive.
When she beautifies herself for her husband, she is backward but when she
beautifies herself for other men she is progressive.
Amrandir Bajaj, a gold medallist gynaecologist
after doing thousands of abortions makes a confession. He says that it has been
ultrasonically proven that the body feels pain when being aborted. When the
mother feels life in her womb she feels such a sense of joy and honour that
Allah has used her for this great miracle of bringing a human being into the
world. The child has just gained life, it starts kicking, playing in its mother’s
protection. It is about to put its first step into the world. The mother will
grant it protection at the risk of her own life. The worst
sculptor does not destroy his own creation but marvels at it. But when the
mother or rather the murderer wants to take the life of her own child because
of some petty excuse like an examination, wedding function or holiday, she
realises she cannot commit the gruesome and cruel murder of an innocent life so
she hires an assassin - a gynaecologist. The poor child has no inkling of its impending
doom. It is enjoying itself when suddenly metallic instruments come one after another, then the one-eyed monster
comes with its open greedy mouth, grabs a part of a limb, wrenches it off and
the comfortable protective womb is transformed into a sea of blood. The child
sends signals of fear to the mother? Murderer!
Like a fish out of water it is
opening and closing its mouth, screaming in silence, gasping for life. Everything
fights for life - why not this little wonderful being? But it is condemned to
die by its own mother. The one-eyed monster strikes again and again taking limb
after limb. Finally the head is grabbed by a bigger sinister
monster which crushes it and the brains
ooze out and finally those beautiful little eyes follow like pearls. The gynaecologist wipes his hands on his white coat,
money changes hands and the most
gruesome, cruel and brutal murder, worse than burying alive or necklacing has taken place which goes down in the
flowery medical terminology as an MTP (medical termination of pregnancy). Is
this any culture or civilization? Is this medical advancement??!! The Quran
asks (to highlight the innocence of the child) “For
what sin were you killed?”
If we follow in their footsteps we
must expect their evils to follow.
This is just the tip of the iceberg
of the corrupt evil life of the western women and their culture. We must make
sure that this evil does not corrupt our Muslim women, be it in the Western
world and the Muslim World wherever they are found.
May Allah protect the Muslim women and all women from the evils of this world. May all of you realise that your true worth will reflect in your respecting the limits of Allah and never overstepping them. Insha-Allah, Ameen.
