The Final "JIHAD"
"Muslim
brothers and sisters, in the name of Allah you are called
to jihad."

The age old story, this time in a new more appealing
package. As I read somewhere “ANOTHER PRESCRIPTION OF
WAR FOR THE MUSLIMS”. Striking headline, catchy isn’t
it? Makes newspapers sell and poor Muslims can’t do a
thing about it. Israel & America are tyrants, everyone is
opposing them? Hmm... Isn’t everyone opposing them? I
mean I’m sure everyone feels horrible about it and prays
to Allah for this to stop, but why aren’t there any processions
or why isn’t any immediate and strict action being taken
against this whole situation? The Arab and Muslim Leagues are
gathering and talking about peace talks! When there aren’t
signs of peace anywhere! Israel is doing what it wants, U.S.A
knows that if it attacks Lebanon by itself then even the American
citizens and all of its alliances will leave it do Die... so
it hides behind Israel so it can clear its way of Lebanon and
Syria and get to Iran at which point America will say ok I can
take over now.
This is the 3rd Muslim country on the verge of destruction in
the past 3 years and all Muslims can do is go to the U.N and
ask for peace talks. It sickens me to see that we do nothing
except talk and try to talk... When they give us a chance to
talk Lebanon will have been eradicated. Condoleezza Rice herself
said that ‘they want a new Middle East’. Soon it
will be “We want a new world”. How can Muslims tolerate
anyone saying anything like that? Don’t we have an identity?
Or have we lost all of our culture to theirs. We wear their
clothes, watch T.V like them, we prefer their food over ours,
we write songs like them. First China was addicted to cocaine.
But our addiction is even worse we're addicted to technology!
Technology that is being prepared under our own noses in Asia
exported overseas and sent back to us to buy! Our media is reliant
to such an extent on theirs but we're recovering from that...
We were for so long relying on their media to tell us what was
going on and make it our headlines... they will always only
tell their side of the story, but Muslims aren’t doing
anything!
Coming back to Pakistan; we made Pakistan ALHAMDULILAH but have
forgotten what the base of it stand upon, ISLAM. Islam doesn’t
teach resentment, hatred, bias, distinction etc, yet we have
all of that coursing through our veins, embedded in our brains,
embossed on our foreheads, tattooed into our skin! We should
be raised to be Muslims not Shia’s Sunni’s etc.
I am and will always remain only a Muslim PERIOD! Yet nowadays
even teachers think of it as a responsibility to ask children
whether they are Shia or Sunni or what their cast is etc. Is
this what we want to teach our children? We condemn the behavior
of Israeli children signing autographs on the missiles yet we
knowingly sow the same seed of hatred in the hearts of our own
children!
I have seen so many Pakistani’s condemn Arabs saying that
they are lazy and have shamed the name of Islam, so on and so
forth. But are we any different? We have a problem with politicians,
with the Army, the Arabs, the Foreigners, the Shia Maulanas,
the Sunni Maulanas, our neighbours, our relatives, our friends,
the driver in the traffic lane in front of us, the rich, the
poor, the middle class, the Punjabis , the Pathans, the Sindis,
the Bloch’s, the Kashmiris, the list is virtually endless.
Everyone has faults admitted but is thinking that every person
has a folly except me rational? With so much of hatred in our
hearts for everyone around us how are we ever going to get to
any solution for peace? Are we even trying?
I read a brother wrote that U.N was Impotent because it was
doing nothing and that such an organization should be dissolved
which acts as a mere puppet to the U.S.A. But I wonder who the
real Impotent is?
I ask you where is the Faith in ALLAH. Muslims fear that the
U.S forces are in the Middle East and in Asia; we are scared
that they have their Air force, Naval and Land forces all around
Asia. So incase of war we have no chance? Where is TAWAKAL ALA
ALLAH? Why do we fear anyone when we know that we all have to
die one day and death can’t even come close to us if it
isn’t Allah’s command? What have we to loose? Or
maybe I should say “What more have we to loose?”
Will we wait for another 50 years till the whole of Muslim world
is conquered by the West and it becomes the New world that it
wishes.
We have this horrible habit of pulling each others leg. It has
become common to the extent that nowadays we don’t bother
to pull anyone’s legs we straight away pull away the earth
they are standing on. In the constant struggle to get ahead
people have become morally deprave and will go to any extent
to get ahead. This practice is common in fact customary in Pakistan.
For some unknown and bizarre reason people think that employing
people who’ve completed their education from foreign or
better yet Foreigners are much more credible than even the cream
in our own country. It’s no wonder why our talent keeps
running outside for more opportunity to express itself and then
we think of reasons why we are backward and under developed!
This practice is also sadly common in our Middle Eastern Countries
where people give priority to foreigners over those belonging
to 3rd World Countries especially Muslims.
We’re drowning in comfort! Cozy in the lap of luxury and
all we can do is pay charity and send aid to our needy brothers
in Islam and still wait for more unfruitful talks.
ARE WE BLIND?!
1) U.S.A vetoed against the resolution to stop
unjust war against Lebanon.
2) They say that they would stop war but the threat
has to be eliminated first (was there ever any threat to begin
with? Has the U.S.A eliminated what they claimed to be terrorist
organizations hiding in Afghanistan? NO! Did the U.S.A find
war weapons or chemical war weapons for which they dug out and
destroyed Iraq? NO! Does Israel really need to kill millions
of innocent people for its 2 soldiers?
3) The U.S.A asked Israel if it would like to send
Aid to Lebanon now that there is shortage of medic and other
supplies. Israel is considering the proposal. What is funny
in this scenario is that common sense could point out that if
they didn’t kill any people they wouldn’t need to
consider sending aid!
They’ve killed millions of us, and you know what the irony
of it all is... we’d rather die at home, or sitting in
our homes when a bomb strikes than actually go out there and
tell them to stop unjust attacks and if they don’t then
we could die protecting our identity.
It makes me wonder “who are the unbelievers?” them
or us? Do we believe that if we take a step to eradicate all
evil amongst our nations and everything bad around the world
that Allah would have our back? Do we believe that we have to
do back and face Him and the way we are living our lives ignorant
of the pain and suffering of people all around us will He not
Judge us? Do we really believe that this life is a test? If
yes then why aren’t we picking up our pens and solving
our problems? A thing about MCQ tests is that they are very
similar to our lives. For every right answer we get a point.
(this right answer is our prayer that we don’t have time
for and the good deed that we seldom do), for every wrong answer
there is a negative mark (for every bad deed we will be judged
and punished) and for every question left unanswered we get
a Zero (for the time we waste doing nothing, we will never know
if we could have gotten a plus or a minus mark, an opportunity
wasted nevertheless. Right now in the chart sheet of Muslim
Stand I can see Big ZEROS and there is a column that says for
every zero there were unfruitful talks!
No one asks Muslims to be offensive but defending ourselves
isn’t that basic human nature? Are we waiting to be destroyed
first and then we will wait for American troops to come and
wipe the debris off our lands, debris of our people, our homes,
our civilization! Funny part is we might even pay them to do
this for us because we’re too good to do such low life
work, aren’t we?
Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.S) said that "There is no precedence
of an Arab over a Non Arab, or a white person over a black and
vice versa" are we practicing that?! Looks like even the
simple rules of humanity have deserted us. We fight within ourselves;
we burn our own country, same old story, the age old trick that
still works... DIVIDE AND RULE! Why is it so hard for Muslims
to see that first we need to stop others from killing us, and
then we’ll have enough time to kill amongst ourselves!
Alas, this may look to some as an emotional rampage but it’s
the truth is that it’s not even funny. Sorry for not being
able to inculcate humor which is a necessity because only the
comics nowadays have the guts to say the truth. It’s like
the orthodox ages when only the jesters could mock the tyrant
ruler.
May Allah (S.W.T) open our eyes our minds and our hearts to
the right path, and help us protect our identity and defend
what is righteous! Amen!
