THE
MUSLIM YOUTHS ARE GOING ASTRAY
Many of our elders
these days have approached me to share their testimonials about our male and
female Muslim youths. Despite the hard
trials, boycott and persecution upon me and the members of the Jamaat Ul Sahih
Al Islam, but as the Caliph of Allah, I do not have the right to remain passive
and fear them, and thereby letting our youths (boys and girls) go astray.
By
the grace of Allah, come what may, I do not have fear of creatures in me, and
Allah (swt) has sent me to accomplish a mission and I shall do it despite the
palavers and persecutions of the so-called great defenders of Islam. When they
have relinquished, abandoned the works which they were supposed to do, Allah
has raised His Caliph (Khalifatullah) with a Jamaat to do the noble work which
our beloved prophet (pbuh) did. Try as you may, but you shall not be able to
extinguish the light of Allah, and let me tell you that Allah (swt) shall
continue to perfect His light. Allah (swt) does not need the permission of
anybody. When He has to raise His Chosen Servant, He raises him without being
accountable to anyone. As for you (our
opponents) wait for the consequences (of your acts) before Allah (swt).
Coming back to the subject on the Muslim
Youths: Thus, what we see these
days, it is sad to say that our youths are going completely astray. And it is
sad to see also see Muslim girls in all corners of the streets with non-Muslim
boys, and flirting as if they are Bollywood and Hollywood actresses and actors.
What is worst is that the image (and honour) of Islam is being trampled by
them, for in addition to all these, they also display themselves with beer
cans. Where are those so-called Mullahs, those great defenders? Are they blind?
Do they not see which route these youths have taken?
As for you, parents – I
am not judging you (but) – are you talking with your kids these days? Instead of
losing time in vain things and talks, for example, watching vain TV serials or
talking about vain things (palavers) with the neighbours, instead of all these,
talk with your children like parents should so as to know what is going on in
their everyday lives.
The corruption of the Mullahs
Do not count on the so-called Mullahs and so-called great
defenders of Islam, for instead of love, they are creating hatred in the hearts
of Muslims against us, and they are judging the faith of people to decree who
is an infidel (Kafir) and believer (Muslim). Moreover, they are vociferating
all kinds of falsehoods on the pulpits, and now their vocation is to create
hatred in the heart of Muslims against us and to create havoc. Apart from
these, they do not know any other work! They fear that religion which goes by
the name of Islam, a religion which Allah has perfected and wherein He has sent
His greatest prophet (pbuh) with the Holy Quran, a complete book in which there
is no doubt whosoever. It is these people who have trampled the true teachings
of Islam and brought in many innovations. They have closed the doors of the
coming of prophets and revelations. They invent all sorts of things to deviate
thousands and thousands of Muslims, whereby the latter come to believe in their
lies.
We all know that Hazrat
Jibreel (as) is the Angel of Revelation and that it is him who brings the
divine revelations when Allah (swt) raises His Messenger. Now, when these
so-called Mullahs have closed the doors of revelations and prophets, they have
rendered Hazrat Jibreel (as) jobless; according to them he no more has the duty
of giving revelations. Instead now, they are saying that Hazrat Jibreel (as) is
the Angel of Death and takes the souls of people. As if Hazrat Jibreel (as) is
jobless and they have found a job for him to do; by taking the lives of people!
Uh-oh! In which baseness they have fallen into?
Had Allah (swt) not raised this
humble servant as well as with a Jamaat, the Jamaat Ul Sahih Al Islam, what
would have happened to the Ummah of Nabi Kareem (pbuh)? Allah already informed/
prophesised (to) His Messenger (pbuh) about those kinds of so-called Mullahs
and told him also in which category of people He has placed them. And nowadays,
we are witnessing the accomplishment of these prophecies with our own eyes. If
you don’t see this, then you are truly blind and this shall be indeed grievous.
Youth 'Fashion' & Muslim Parents
Thus, coming back to the subject on the Muslim
Youths, it is sad to see that Muslim girls are not covering them properly,
in the Islamic way. Those who go to colleges, universities and the job world
dress themselves in shameful non-islamic clothes and they behave themselves like
non-Muslims also.
Whenever when one
enters an office for a certain work, be it in the public and private sector,
one does not know who among all these workers are Muslims and non-Muslims.
There is no difference between the two. Therefore, the parents, especially the
mother must monitor how her daughter is dressing herself and if that daughter
is married, then the husband must monitor in which way his wife is clothing
herself. If you, husband do not monitor in which way your wife is dressing up,
especially in public and amidst her co-workers where there are men and women
mix together in the workplace, then this is not good at all!
It is sad to see
certain Muslim parents and husbands also who target only the worldly
achievements (duniya) for their
children and wives respectively. College girls, in their tender youths are
dressing up all wrong! One must see what kinds of uniforms (the length of those uniforms) they are wearing! Does that mother
not see in which way her daughter is clothed when she goes to school/ college? Those
kinds of parents turn a blind eye to it, preferring to see only the worldly
targets they have for their kids, seeing only their academic achievements, and
forget to educate them and making them advance in spirituality. So long as
their kids are making progress in the academic field, they are happy!
Parental Duties in Islam
Bear in
mind, that Deen (Islam) education is
also very important. It is indeed more precious before our Rab. You must
prepare your children/ youths in such a way so that they do not become a SHAME for
you neither through their deeds nor through their ugly behaviour, and thus
prevent them from displaying an ugly picture of the teachings of Islam.
Bear in mind that each
of us has to account for all our deeds before Allah (swt) on the Day of
Judgment. Each of you must take his or her responsibility as a parent vis-à-vis
his/ her kids/ youths. These youths think that they have the power to do all
that they want. They are not even conscious of their deeds, and do not ponder
over the consequences of their acts. They are so hard-headed in whatever they
do that they do not realise in which kinds of problems they are getting
themselves into. When they shall realise their mistakes, it shall be too late
for them.
If one analyses the deeds of the Muslim girls whereby they are
letting themselves be overtaken by the image projected by the others (and
imitating them), therefore each parent and each responsible party of their
respective Jamaat must feel ashamed and seek solutions, working together hand
in hand to remove those Muslims girls and boys from the wrong path.
Role of Tarbiyyat in Changing Perceptions
This verily touches
each one of us. We need to make great efforts and prayers (duahs) to stop our youths from imitating the others in all their
way of living, for we know that the others (non-Muslims) are only concerned
with this temporal life only. Thus, we must not let our youths take these
people as models. This demands a good Tarbiyyat
(spiritual education) to be done with them, and the time and opportunity must
be found to give Tarbiyyat classes to
our youths (girls and boys). And they should be motivated to attend those Tarbiyyat classes. It is necessary to
make them understand that it is the Holy Prophet (pbuh) whom we should take as
model, and we need to follow his footsteps and it is our duty also to help the
others.
If the youths are going
astray nowadays, parents also have played a major part in that. Nowadays, after
inspecting Madrassas, then among all those towns and villages, it is sad to see
that the majority of those Madrassas have only few students. Parents are not
interested in sending their wards to the Madrassa to learn our religion, as if
religious education has no value on the surface of this temporal world!
I again tell you, both
are important, be it academic or Islamic. Recall that it is now roughly 5
months since the coming of the month of Ramadan (we are now in the month of Safar of the next year). The presence
in our mosques (for all Jamaats) has returned back to where it was prior to
Ramadan. When we make a survey of the mosques, we find them nearly empty. It
has ceased to be like it was during the month of Ramadan. We cannot afford to
make good deeds only during the month of Ramadan, and abandon the performance
of those good deeds after Ramadan.
Thus, parents are
letting their children exceed all limits. You, parents are today running behind
money but tomorrow this money won’t be able to buy your children’s future; it
shall be too late. The accomplishment of (all the acts of) Ibaadah (Worship) is not reserved for only the month of Ramadan.
You need to continue to follow the path of Allah the Almighty even after
Ramadan. It is therein that there is prosperity and cure for you for all
problems that can touch you in your everyday lives.
Nowadays, we see young
Muslim girls/ ladies (I am not targeting all of them, for there are those who
are attached to Islamic teachings and practices) imitating the fashion sense of
the non-Muslims, and in this midst of imitation, they have lost their own
identity as Muslims and have drifted far away from true Islamic practice. This
entire situation need to be changed, Insha-Allah.
May Allah (swt) forgive
us all for our sins. Allah (swt) is truly the Great Forgiver. Ameen! Summa Ameen.
