The Signs of Qiyamah- 1
The end of the world and the Day of Judgement, referred to as Qiyamah, is a significant event whose timing is unknown to everyone (except Allah). This knowledge is possessed solely by Allah. However, Allah has allowed the world to perceive its signs; signs indicating its imminent approach.
Approximately seven to
twelve centuries ago from our current era, the world entered a phase of
decline. The universe is changing, the world is changing, and humankind is
changing as well. Consider that when humans have no respect for God the
Creator, the Unique One (Allah), and have no respect for creation and the
provisions Allah has granted them, and begin to consider themselves superior, and
living their lives as if they will never taste death despite knowing that one
day they will die, this is called being in complete denial of the presence of
Allah, of His power as the Creator, and of the fact that one day this very
Creator will reduce them to dust and return their souls to Him for judgement.
These days, we witness
a regression in spirituality and an embrace of full materialism. When I speak
of this, I refer to humans, the creatures to whom Allah has granted free will.
But just imagine! This free will can either be a blessing for humankind or a
curse. If humans use it in the right way, they will progress continuously. But
if they misuse it, they will descend into continuous decline.
Today, mankind has
adopted a way of living that is contrary to Islam, in other words, contrary to
the natural way of life that Allah has created for humans. This natural way
requires humans to submit solely to Allah, their Creator, not associate any
false deities with Him in His worship, and to establish themselves on prayer,
do good deeds, and maintain their ecological system. When I refer to the
ecological system here, it’s not my intention to start a discussion on nature,
but what’s even more important is that humans need to know how to respect
nature and their environment as a whole.
But what do we see
today? Humans are mistreating nature and their environment; in their pursuit of
comfort, they accept to destroy nature with toxic waste. What is even more
severe is that they produce weapons upon weapons to kill fellow humans in the
name of religion, especially when no religion ever advocates killing people
unless others come to attack you. And of course, Allah has given permission to
protect your life and to defend yourselves. But here, we are talking about
limits being exceeded, favours and good deeds of a people who have subsequently
been trampled, killed, and mutilated, solely because of their goodness of
heart.
They had made
conspiracies upon conspiracies to label Muslim Palestinians, and even babies as
terrorists and they stopped supplies of food and drink to reach them, where
they blocked their way from getting water, but they did not realize that when
they closed a door, Allah would open another door for His believing servants.
Allah made another spring of water flow for them. They are (till today) suffering
the afflictions of a thankless, merciless war, but Alhamdulillah, we see
that most of them have not lost their trust in Allah, and parents have
instilled good spiritual education in their children, who despite the war, but
they have not lost their Insaaniyat (humanity) and their Iman
(faith) within them.
Since the allied countries
to the Zionist Jews have established by force the Israeli state in Palestine,
instead of being satisfied with this, the Zionist Jews have sought more. Thus, “tenants”
– in a way of speaking – have sought to become landlords of the houses and
properties “they rented” (Mauritian Expression). They drove Palestinians
out of their homes and took their homes by force and declared themselves the owners.
But everything has an end. Allah watches, and tests the believers with these Zaalims
(mischief makers) until the moment when He will STRIKE. And when Allah takes
REVENGE in favour of His good servants, then the enemies of goodness, truth,
faith and humanism will fly away like corks!
The situation is critical. For the people living on this earth at this present time, it is a pronounced form of Qiyamah that they are witnessing. These signs of destruction, triggered by the hand of man himself, will eventually lead to the ruin of man. Imagine that the end of the world is when both non-believers and believers alike meet their death. However, each will be resurrected by Allah according to the deeds they performed on earth.
In a disguised way,
they have managed to infiltrate Eastern culture, in the midst of Islam. They
have Americanized the Arab countries and changed their mentality so that they
succeed in their plan. But as Allah says in the Quran: Wa makaru, wa makarallah, wallahu khairul makireen
(They make their plan, and Allah also makes His plan, and Allah’s plan is far
better).
The great conspiracies
of the Maghzub and the Zwaleen (Jews and Christians) –the Pagans
(i.e., idol worshipers), as well as the Hindus and other idolaters are included
in this definition – so, they all have united to exterminate Islam because they
know the real power of Islam, as well as what the wealth and power that the
Arab world has can do, and so they have strived – striving upon striving – to try
to weaken the Arab world and make it come closer to their own ideology so that
they can attack Islam and the Muslims even inside their country, their
environment, in order to exterminate their Islam. As for those who do not
conform to their ideology, they cause them to become martyr (i.e. kill them).
And Palestine is one of those countries that, for nearly a century, have lived
hell on a daily basis, but the extent of its people’s faith in Allah shines still
today like a bright sun. For them, it is better to die than to abandon their
Islam and their legitimate country. And they have protected with their lives
the Mosques of Allah in the enclosure of the Al-Aqsa Mosque.
Therefore, the patience you have (O
Palestinians) shown must not wane. The pain they feel must be felt by the
entire body of Islam as a whole. In the last twenty-three years, when the
operation of extermination of Islam has been officially launched at the
international level by the World Trade Center conspiracy, the enemies of Islam
have used all strategies to bring down Islam before the eyes of the world, but
over time – nowadays, the community of Christians and Jews who are not
Zionists, who have a human heart in their chest, who have the fear of God
Almighty in their hearts have recognized the truth of Islam, and deplore the
murderous and Zionist actions of the Zionist Jews of Israel and all its allies.
These are well-calculated plots. A conspiracy that has been established for a
long time and that they have begun to execute, because for them, it is Islam
and Muslims the Antichrist, but the truth is that the Antichrist is the enemies
of the True God, the Antichrist is the enemy of Muhammad (pbuh), Isa (as) and
all the prophets of Allah, who are against Tawheed (the Oneness of
Allah) and who seek to establish the kingdom of Satan in the world.
Today, I do not blame the countries
that support the Palestinian cause, as it is not a cause separate from Islam.
The primary reason for the forced establishment of the state of Israel was to
eradicate Islam from Palestine, to claim Jerusalem as theirs, and to establish
the reign of David (Dawud (as)) on earth. However, they fail to realize that
Dawud (as), Suleiman (as), and even Isa (as), whom the Jews have rejected, were
all true Muslims. Yet, they consider Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh) and his followers
as their enemies. They devised strategies to label Muslims as terrorists and
Islam as a religion that promotes terrorism. But notice something: since Israel
has shattered Palestine - Gaza, Rafa, etc., we no longer hear about ‘terrorist’
groups like ISIS coming to exterminate Israel. They used ISIS as a cover to
claim that Islam is a terrorist religion, but where is ISIS today? Today, a
small group, Hamas, is fighting against a powerful Israeli force backed by
America and European countries.
This very small group, Hamas, provides them with the so-called justification for devastating Palestine and causing the death of more than 40,000 people, and where most of these deaths are women and children. When they kill women and children, they are ensuring the non-continuation of Palestinian Islamic descendants. But while they are bent on being firm in their killing agenda, Allah is opening the innocent hearts of the world, and one day the Western world will Islamize to such an extent that the enemies of Islam will not be able to do anything! One day Islam will witness (will return to) its former glory, and there will be no revenge on that day. There will be rejoicing and thanksgiving to Allah. There will be forgiveness. That Day is coming, and Allah is preparing His army. That is why the Ummah of Hazrat Muhammad (pbuh), if we say we are true Muslims, so we must all unite to see the good of Islam as a whole, to re-establish the Tawheed in the world, and put an end to the plots of the Satans.
The day humanity blows itself up
(self-destructs), it will be akin to a SUICIDE. Their thirst for power, land,
wealth and popularity makes them lose all humanity in them. Future generations
that will rise will rise in a land in ruins, and they will build anew the
kingdom of Allah until Allah says: STOP now, the time has come. And that
hour will be an hour of panic where the soul will tremble because now has come
the moment that Allah promised but for which they did not make any preparation.
On that day, the unbelievers will be in panic, but also the believers, but the
divine mercy will cover the believers, according to the degree of their piety (Taqwah).
So, all of us Muslims, without
exception, must unite to protect the true Deen of Allah and preserve the
heritage of Muslims. The enemies are making their plots, but by the grace of Allah,
millions around the world today are having their spiritual hearts opened by
Allah to perceive true Islam. Allah’s plan is superior. Allah has sent in this
century the Messiah and Mahdi who is praying for you day and night, and prayer
is the best weapon among all the weapons in this universe.
Before the final day arrives, when
Allah will reclaim and fold everything He has created, He will establish His
final reign, and the great victory will certainly come. When this happens, it
will leave the world astonished and surprised. The signs are before you. You
cannot deny them. If you turn a blind eye to them, then you will suffer; not
just you, but your descendants as well, except for those whom Allah will guide
to Islam and strengthen with the Ruh’il Quddus before the final moment
of life on earth comes.
This subject is vast. Insha-Allah,
I will continue on the same subject next Friday.
May Allah have mercy on the Muslims and safeguard Islam from all its enemies, and may He establish a generation of righteous and virtuous people who will know how to wage the war against all Satans, to re-establish the reign of Allah on earth. Insha-Allah, Ameen.
