IT IS NOT CHANNEL ISLAM—IT IS CHANNEL SHAITAAN It is time that Muslims open their eyes and display some vestiges of shame and fear for Allah Ta’ala.The calamities which have befallen and are befalling Muslim communities elsewhere in the world should serve as eye openers and warnings for us. Similar fates are awaiting the Muslim community in this country. If this process of flagrant and disgraceful violation of the Shariah ushered in by Channel Shaitaan will gain momentum and spread in the community, then be assured of the athaab of Allah Ta’ala. May Allah Ta’ala save us from the misfortunes and from His punishment which have overtaken other segments of the Ummah. When Allah’s Athaab descends, nothing will stop it. But it will be too late for opening eyes. SHAITAANI TABLEEGH T here is absolutely no room for the evil activities and opinions which Channel Shaitaan has undertaken to propagate. This radio station is undoubtedly engaging in “tableegh” of shaitaaniyat, haraam and baatil. Much intelligence is not required to fathom this conspicuous reality. We are certain that innumerable ordinary Muslims are shocked and appalled on account of the flagrant haraam, fisq and fujoor which this miserable radio station with its miserable molvis are peddling and propagating. When ‘ulama’ have stooped to the basest levels of moral degradation, only Allah Ta’ala can safeguard the Akhlaaq and Imaan of the community. In terms of the Hadith of Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) such ulama-e-soo are the worst of Allah’s creation on the surface of the earth. We say, they are worse than even the gays whose views and conduct Channel Shaitaan has promoted.“MUSLIM” PERSONAL LAW — AN ATTEMPT TO INTRODUCE A NEW SHARIAH SPECIAL EDITION In a Special Edition, The Majlis has explained in detail the danger which the confounded “Muslim” Personal Law measure poses for the Shariah and the Muslim community. Those who have not received the Special Edition, may write to The Majlis for a copy. Send stamps to the value R3 to cover postage. PROJECT COMMITTEE A committee dubbed, the Project Committee, has been formed by the South African Law Commission at the request of the handful of persons who are eager for a new-shape shariah. This committee has presented a paper which they call a ‘draft bill’ (sic) to the Law Commission. The draft bill is cluttered with un-Islamic and anti-Islamic proposals which the Project Committees prays would become law to be shoved down the throats of Muslims. Almost every proposal in the miserable paper called ‘draft bill’ is an attempt to change laws of the Qur’aan and Sunnah. The Shariah is being undermined in a subtle way by Muslims who profess to have the interests of the community and the Deen at heart. Either they are collaborators with the enemies of the Deen or too dense in the mind to understand and see whither they are drifting. INTERPOLATIONS The following are some of the changes which the committee has proposed be effected to the Shariah:
In exceptional cases if under 18 year olds want to enter into nikah, they will require the express permission of the non-Muslim Minister of Home Affairs. While under 18 year old A man may not marry a second wife without the consent of the non-Muslim Minister or the kaafir court. Yet this same man may enter into a limitless number of illicit and adulterous relationships. If a man marries a second wife, he commits a grave offence and is liable for a fine of R50,000 or a long term of imprisonment. But there is no fine or imprisonment if he commits adultery or flirts around with dozens of women and destroys his time, money and life of this world and the hereafter in brothels. If a husband does not register the Talaaq he has issued, he is liable for a fine of R50,000 or The father’s right of custody of his children is completely cancelled. The ex-wife can claim for maintenance far in excess and for extremely long periods which the Shariah does not allow. The kuffaar court is entitled to distribute the estate of a man in terms of kuffaar law. It may award half of a man’s estate to the divorced wife. During the subsistence of a Nikah, a man may not enter into another nikah. The non-Muslim Home Minister is given the power to override the authority of the Wali of a minor. This is such a serious breach of the Shariah , which leads to zina because according to the Shaafi Math-hab, the con sent of the Wali is imperative for the nikah. Without such con sent the nikah of a virgin is not valid. Yet in terms of the Project Committee’s proposal, the ‘nikah’ will be valid if the non-Muslim Home Minister consents. A nikah entered into by adults of under 18, can be declared null and void by the non-Muslim Home Minister, while according to the Shariah this is never permissible nor does such a minister have any jurisdiction over Muslim Deeni affairs. Nikahs which have been performed even long ago have to be registered with the government within 12 months of the proposed haraam act becoming law. But the Shariah does not require such registration. LOOK AT THIS KUFR The Project Committee proposes: “No spouse in an Islamic marriage recognised in terms of this Act may, after the commencement of this Act, enter into a marriage under the Marriage Act, 1961 during the subsistence of such Islamic marriage.” But what does the Shariah say? A man is free to marry a second, a third and a fourth wife during the subsistence of one or more nikahs. CANCELLING THE QUR’AANIC PERMISSION The Project Committee proposes: “A husband in an Islamic marriage who wishes to enter into a further Islamic marriage with another woman after the commencement of this Act must make an application to the court for permission to do so, and to approve a written contract which will regulate the future matrimonial system of his marriages,” In suggesting this measure, the Project Committee is seeking to override the unfettered and free permission which the Qur’aan gives a man to marry again and again up to four wives.The Project Committee in this proposal desires to attach matrimonial property systems to marriages. But this is in conflict with the Shariah. Marriage does not give rise to such systems. Marriages produce the consequences of huqooq (rights and obligations) only. But in its proposal the Committee has conspired to interpolate the Qur’aanic Law. The proposal to gain the permission of the kuffaar court for Nikah is also baatil and extremely repugnant. When permission from even an Islamic Court is entirely unnecessary for Nikah, it is Islamically inconceivable that Ulama should propose that the permission of the kuffaar is necessary for Nikah. The aforementioned are some of the baatil and un-Islamic proposals which the Project Committee has made under its facade of “Muslim” Personal Law. But their is nothing Muslim about this confounded MPL which is an attempt to wrought changes in the Divine Shariah.
