Are They Islamic Radios? un-Islamic and anti-Islamic radio stations. Nevertheless, in pursuance of their nafsaani desires they listen to the evil broadcasting by these media. Ofcourse, there are those who are unable to think for themselves due to lack of sufficient intelligence. Such people are led astray by those masquerading as Ulama and Deeni personnel while in reality they are the agents of Shaitaan-in-Chief, namely, the original and the first Shaitaan (Iblees) who was expelled from Jannat for rebelling against Allah’s Command to make Sajdah to Aadam (alayhis salaam). These ulama-e-soo’ will carry the burden of all those whom they had misled into Jahannum while the listerners will also not escape their punishment for allowing themselves to be misguided into Shaitaan’s den. The answers to your enumerated questions are as follows: Q. Due to the fact that many extremely harmful programmes and some beneficial programmes are all aired in the name of Islam, is it at all permissible to listen to these stations? A. It is not permissible to listen to even the ‘beneficial’ programmes of these stations. Their harm is more than the little ‘good’ they lay claim to. According to the Qur’aan Majeed, liquor and gambling too have advantages. Inspite of the benefits in these evils, the Qur’aan strictly prohibits them. Any form of support for these haraam radio stations is haraam. Q. Should one discourage others from listening to these stations? A. It is Waajib to discourage others from listening to the haraam radio stations. The Wujoob applies when one has some jurisdiction or some influence over those to whom the naseehat is directed. Amr Bil Ma’roof Nahy anil Munkat is Waajib. It is part of this sacred obligation to discourage Muslims from listening to the evil stations. Q. What can be done to combat the un-Islamic aspects emanating from these radio stations? A. Evil is on the ascendancy. This has been predicted by Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). As we approach the confines of Qiyaamah, we shall be the witnesses of tumultuous evil and immorality. And, in the Muslim community this evil will be spear-headed by those known as ulama— the ulama-e-soo’ (evil learned men masquerading as muftis, molvis, shaikhs and khalifas. Whatever is in one’s ability and lawful, one should do to combat the evil of these media. The concerned Muslim will discharged his obligation of Amr Bil ma’roof if he gives naseehat in this regard to whomever he is able to. Allah Ta’ala is the Final Arbiter. RASULULLAH’S GRAVE In the year 557 Hijri, Sultan Nuruddin Zangi saw in a dream Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) saying: “Two red dogs are poised to attack my grave. Pursue them.” In the dream two Yahood were shown to the Sultan. The Sultan set off with his army for Madinah Munawwarah. After arriving in Madinah, the Sultan organized a search and located the tunnel in which the two Yahood were digging towards the Grave of Nabi-e-Kareem (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). They were apprehended and beheaded on the spot by the Sultan. The Yahood also believed that the Mubaarak body of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) was intact and divinely preserved, hence an attempt was made to exhume the blessed body of Nabi-e-Kareem (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) for whatever sinister designs they had in mind. SHAHEED SAHAABAH In 1932, the Sahaabi Hadhrat Huzaifah (radhiyallahu anhu) in a dream instructed king Faisal of Iraq to relocate their graves elsewhere since water from the river was seeping in. The king issued orders for the bodies of Hadhrat Huzaifah (radhiyallahu anhu) and Hadhrat Jaabir Bin Abdullah (radhiyallahu anhu) to be exhumed. The exhumation was done in great style and pomp. Thousands of people witnessed the event. When the bodies were removed, it seemed as if they were buried only a couple of hours ago inspite of the lapse of almost 14 centuries. The bodies were fresh and glittering with Noor.Thousands witnessed the exhumation and many non-Muslims who were present embraced Islam. THE CURSE OF DEFEMINIZED WOMEN Hadhrat Aishah Siddiqah (radhiyallahu anha) nllam) narrates: “Verily, Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) cursed the rajlah among women.” (Abu Dawood) The term rajlah is the feminine of rajul which means ‘a man’.Thus , rajlah means ‘a man-woman’ or a defeminized woman or a masculinized woman. Hadhrat Aishah (radhiyallahu anha) said that such women were cursed by Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). Women who emulate men in their appearance, dress, attitudes, etc., are termed rajlah and the la’nat (curse) of Allah, His Rasool and the Malaaikah perpetually settle on these feminized or masculinized females. A salient feature of such women is that they vie with males in fields which Allah Ta’ala has ordained exclusively or primarily for men. They seek leadership and exposure. They love public platforms and always crave to exhibit themselves in public. They are generally raucous, loud and immodest. They detest domestic work and the home-role which Allah Ta’ala has made Waajib for them. They display the tendencies of lesbians and many of them are in fact lesbians or female homosexuals. They insist to be in the street and out of the home in conflict with Allah’s prohibition: “And remain (glued) inside your homes, and do not make an exhibition of yourselves like the exhibition (of the women of) Jahiliyyah.” (Qur’aan) These specimens of humanity cursed by Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) have taken over from the kuffaar the slogan and concept of ‘the equality of sexes’, but there is no such stupid idea in Islam. While these defeminized women scream the slogan of ‘equality of sexes’, the Qur’aan explicitly and categorically affirms the superior rank of men and that males are the rulers of women. The masculinized women try to push themselves into the forefront of spheres belonging to males inspite of Rasulullah’s order: “Put them (women) behind just as Allah has put them behind.” Women of this kind—masculinized women, defeminized women, women with lesbian tendencies—who crave to stand shoulder to shoulder with men in the public howling slogans, form dangerous marriage partners. Men of Deeni concious should be careful when choosing a marriage partner. It is necessary to watch out for these accursed tendencies and attributes before plunging into marriage. Marriage with masculinized women can last only if the husband buckles and accept the role of a dayyooth (cuckold). Under the domination of the masculinized woman, a man will have to agree to hand over his pants to the ‘he-her’- to the rajlah mal-oonah (the accursed male-woman). All women who compete with men and endeavour to be in public at the helm are women of this ilk. The ideal woman of the Qur’aan and Islam is described by the Qur’aan Majeed in the following glowing terms: “(Such women who are) chaste, Simple and believing..” The attributes of uprighteous Muslim females are Imaan, chastity and simplicity. They are not like the accursed masculinized or defeminized women who love public platforms and who detest the home-role for which Allah Ta’ala has created them. When a woman detests her natural divinely ordained role, then she must necessarily be unnatural and abnormal. Since she imitates and emulates men of her own free accord, Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) cursed her. Such women need to reflect and understand the umbrella of divine la’nat which covers them. AQL—INTELLIGENCE “Mere intelligence is nothing. Intelligence without the fadhl (grace) of Allah adorning it, is nothing. By Allah! To be proud of only intelligence is stupidity and deviation. Banish this stupidity. Great intellectuals hit against obstacles and slipped.” (Hadhrat Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanvi) BASIS OF DEEN The bond of love with Allah, fear for Allah and disinclination from the world are the basis of Deen. (Hadhrat Hakimul Ummat) THE PROFESSION OF FUQARAA Once when someone asked Ibraheem Bin Adham of his profession, the great Saint replied: “The Office-Bearers of Allah are not in need of a profession.” SALF-E-SAALIHEEN “Of great benefit for the Ulama is to understand that (steadfastness) in practising on the Deen is based on honour and respect for the Salf-e-Saaliheen (the Ulama and Fuqaha of the three Noble Ages of Islam). Never allow the slightest vestige of criticism against them.” (Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanvi) BAD-DEENI (IRRELIGIOSITY) A very surprising fact proven by experience is the contagious effect of irreligiosity (Deeni corruption) of a irreligious person. For example, if a religiously corrupt person writes a book on Nahw (Arabic grammar), the effect of irreligiosity will be created in the heart of the person who studies the book inspite of the book being devoid of any irreligious statement.” (Hadhrat Maulana Ashraf Ali Thanvi) WASAAWIS Wasaawis (stray thoughts) which rush into the mind during Salaat are in a way a mercy. It cut the roots of ujub (vanity). No matter how evil the stray thoughts are, they are not harmful as long as one does not brood on them. Therefore, do not become frustrated by wasaawis. On the contrary, be ‘happy’ and ignore these thoughts. Wasaawis do not negate one’s ikhlaas (sincerity). (Hadhrat Hakimul Ummat) SAFETY Safety (Aafiyat)is a great ni’mat (favour of Allah Ta’ala). It aids one’s Deen. On the contrary, abundance of wealth produces forgetfulness. One forgets the Deen. In fact it is akin to a punishment. One is perpetually afflicted with a thousand worries. Then without safety, everything is futile. (Hadhrat Hakimul Ummat) |
