The victory of Allah is near
Since 2012-11-21
Muslims should never neglect seeking confidence in Allah’s victory, during the time of turmoil and calamities especially those who lead the youth of Islamic Jihad (Fighting for the sake of Allah) and Islamic invitation Centers in Islamic countries.
In the Name of Allah the most Gracious the most Merciful
All praise is due to Allah who promised, whoever is obedient to Him and feared Him, victory. And praise, prayer and peace of Allah be upon our Prophet Muhammad Ibn Abdullah, His patient family, His striving companions and whoever follows Him till the day of resurrection.
Muslims should never neglect seeking confidence in Allah’s victory, during the time of turmoil and calamities especially those who lead the youth of Islamic Jihad (Fighting for the sake of Allah) and Islamic invitation Centers in Islamic countries.
Nowadays, humanity is in need for the direct approach of Islam which faced jahiliyyah, like it was in a bad need for it in the pre-Islamic time. Even with the abundance of modern approaches, Islam’s approach is highest of our current needs as it was then.
Thus, we shouldn’t have second thoughts that what happened once in this situation will happen again.
We shouldn’t feel skeptical because of what we see around us, from the brutal attacks on the Muslim generation that returned to Allah Almighty everywhere, and from the enormous foundation that builds the material world… What ends all of this is the strength of truth and the extent of firmness against these attacks.
Islam is in fact too stable, deep–rooted, and great to be mutated or changed, even by the bestial attacks on Muslims. Islam has a great role in this world and it has to perform it whether the enemy likes it or not. The strength of Islam is an inherent factor in its nature. It lies in its genuineness, clearness, comprehensiveness, suitability for the human nature, and its ability to fulfill man's actual needs. Islam is strong because it ascends man from enslavement to other humans to the enslavement to Allah alone. It denies that anyone is to be ordered except by Allah and to be submissive but to Him. It lies, as well, in one’s ascendancy to accidental equivocations, such as feeling the humiliation caused by those in authority, even if they were practicing oppression. Thus, this authority, no matter how strong it is, has no ruling on the Muslim conscience. And that is why the Muslim would not feel any spiritual defeat, as long as Islam inhabits his heart and conscience, although he might sometimes experience ostensible defeat.
The enemies are fighting Islam for these merits, because it hinders their colonial objectives, and prevent the tyranny and deification that they are aiming for.
For these merits, enemies of Islam are leading campaigns for annihilation and repression on Muslims, deforming Islam and deceiving people.
That is why they want to replace Islam's principles and values with different ones, in order to disburden the World Zionist, the International Crusade and the World Imperialism from this giant religion.
It is the Islamic character which stands up to the temptations of the enemies who want to colonize the Islamic world. That is the real motivation behind this conflict and its real motivation, and the fact which believers and the entire Islamic nation must fully apprehend and realize with absolute certainty during their confrontation with these temptations, such as disasters, imprisonment, and getting killed, and they have to believe that the victory of Islam is coming, even though all allies are gathered against it.
{Permission to fight (against disbelievers) is given to those (believers) who are fought against, because they have been wronged; and surely, Allâh is Able to give them (believers) victory –(39) Those who have been expelled from their homes unjustly only because they said: "Our Lord is Allâh." For had it not been that Allâh checks one set of people by means of another, monasteries, churches, synagogues, and mosques, wherein the Name of Allâh is mentioned much would surely have been pulled down. Verily, Allâh will help those who help His (Cause). Truly, Allâh is All-Strong, All-Mighty.} [Surat Al-Hajj 22:39-40]
{أُذِنَ لِلَّذِينَ يُقَاتَلُونَ بِأَنَّهُمْ ظُلِمُوا وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ عَلَى نَصْرِهِمْ لَقَدِيرٌ (39) الَّذِينَ أُخْرِجُوا مِن دِيَارِهِمْ بِغَيْرِ حَقٍّ إِلَّا أَن يَقُولُوا رَبُّنَا اللَّهُ وَلَوْلَا دَفْعُ اللَّهِ النَّاسَ بَعْضَهُم بِبَعْضٍ لَّهُدِّمَتْ صَوَامِعُ وَبِيَعٌ وَصَلَوَاتٌ وَمَسَاجِدُ يُذْكَرُ فِيهَا اسْمُ اللَّهِ كَثِيراً وَلَيَنصُرَنَّ اللَّهُ مَن يَنصُرُهُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَقَوِيٌّ عَزِيزٌ} الحج: 39-40
Transliteration: Othina lillatheena yuqataloona biannahum thulimoo wainna Allaha AAala nasrihim laqadeerun (39) Allatheena okhrijoo min diyarihim bighayri haqqin illa an yaqooloo rabbuna Allahu walawla dafAAu Allahi alnnasa baAAdahum bibaAAdin lahuddimat sawamiAAu wabiyaAAun wasalawatun wamasajidu yuthkaru feehaismu Allahi katheeran walayansuranna Allahu man yansuruhu inna Allaha laqawiyyun AAazeezun (40)
{They (the disbelievers, the Jews and the Christians) want to extinguish Allâh’s Light (with which Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم has been sent - Islâmic Monotheism) with their mouths, but Allâh will not allow except that His Light should be perfected even though the Kâfirûn (disbelievers) hate (it).(32) It is He Who has sent His Messenger (Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم) with guidance and the religion of truth (Islâm), to make it superior over all religions even though the Mushrikûn (polytheists, pagans, idolaters, disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh) hate (it).} [Surat At-Taubah 9:32-33]
{يُرِيدُونَ أَن يُطْفِؤُواْ نُورَ اللّهِ بِأَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَيَأْبَى اللّهُ إِلاَّ أَن يُتِمَّ نُورَهُ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْكَافِرُونَ (32) هُوَ الَّذِي أَرْسَلَ رَسُولَهُ بِالْهُدَى وَدِينِ الْحَقِّ لِيُظْهِرَهُ عَلَى الدِّينِ كُلِّهِ وَلَوْ كَرِهَ الْمُشْرِكُونَ} التوبة: 32-33
Transliteration: Yureedoona an yutfioo noora Allahi biafwahihim wayabaAllahu illa an yutimma noorahu walaw kariha alkafiroona (32) Huwa allathee arsala rasoolahu bialhuda wadeeni alhaqqi liyuthhirahu AAala alddeeni kullihi walaw kariha almushrikoona (33)
Then, those people have to remember the conflicts between the Prophets and their nations, and who was the dominant side?
{ And, verily, Our Word has gone forth of old for Our slaves, the Messengers,(171) that they verily would be made triumphant,(172). And that Our hosts! they verily would be the victors.} [Surat As-Saffat 37:171-173]
{وَلَقَدْ سَبَقَتْ كَلِمَتُنَا لِعِبَادِنَا الْمُرْسَلِينَ (171) إِنَّهُمْ لَهُمُ الْمَنصُورُونَ (172) وَإِنَّ جُندَنَا لَهُمُ الْغَالِبُونَ} الصافات: 171-173
Transliteration: Walaqad sabaqat kalimatunaliAAibadina almursaleena (171) Innahum lahumu almansooroona (172) Wainna jundana lahumu alghaliboona (173)
{Verily, We will indeed make victorious Our Messengers and those who believe (in the Oneness of Allâh - Islâmic Monotheism) in this world’s life and on the Day when the witnesses will stand forth, (i.e. Day of Resurrection)-(51) The Day when their excuses will be of no profit to Zâlimûn (polytheists, wrong-doers and disbelievers in the Oneness of Allâh). Theirs will be the curse, and theirs will be the evil abode (i.e. painful torment in Hell-fire).} [Surat Ghafir 40:51-52].
{إِنَّا لَنَنصُرُ رُسُلَنَا وَالَّذِينَ آمَنُوا فِي الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا وَيَوْمَ يَقُومُ الْأَشْهَادُ (51) يَوْمَ لَا يَنفَعُ الظَّالِمِينَ مَعْذِرَتُهُمْ وَلَهُمُ اللَّعْنَةُ وَلَهُمْ سُوءُ الدَّارِ} غافر: 51-52
Transliteration: Inna lanansuru rusulana waallatheenaamanoo fee alhayati alddunya wayawma yaqoomu alashhadu (51) Yawma la yanfaAAu alththalimeena maAAthiratuhum walahumu allaAAnatu walahum sooo alddari (52)
This fact stated by the Qur`an has not been ignored by the authentic Sunnah as well. It is proven in the authentic Hadith that the Prophet, prayer and peace of Allah be upon Him, said: “This matter (Islam) will keep spreading as far as the night and day reach, until Allah will not exclude a house made of clay or a woolen tent, but will make this religion enter it, by bringing might to a mighty person (a Muslim) and humiliation to a disgraced person (who rejects Islam), in a manner that glorifies Islam and humiliates atheism.” [Al-Albani, on the condition of Muslim]
«ليبلغن هذا الأمر ما بلغ الليل والنهار، ولا يترك الله بيت مدر ولا وبر إلا أدخله الله هذا الدين، بعز عزيز أو بذل ذليل، عزا يعز الله به الإسلام وذلا يذل الله به الكفر» الألباني، على شرط مسلم
If the suspicious people of the hypocrites and their like want to remove this fact from the hearts of Muslims, and some will listen to them and others believe, I will address my speech to them all. I will ask them to look at the massacres and displacement that Muslims undergo in several Islamic countries.
Did it suppress them?
Did it exterminate them?
Did it cease the Islamic expansion?
Hundreds and thousands of them were killed under the cruciferous, zionistic, and secular suppression. However, awakening increases after every massacre, as some of the conscious Muslim youth, who are stronger, braver, more aware, and insisting on walking on the long path, appeared.
If it is predetermined, from the above, that it is necessary to sense the confidence of Allah's victory especially when temptations occur, it should be known that Islam does not work alone. However, it works through the people who believe in it. Muslims, today, who witness their brothers facing temptation in their religion, without reacting or moving a muscle, and fail to support their believing brothers, if those people did not awake from their inattention and remove negligence from their heads, then Allah is able to replace them with other people who are better than them: And {And if you turn away (from Islâm and the obedience to Allâh), He will exchange you for some other people and they will not be your likes.} [Surat Muhammad 47:38]
{وَإِن تَتَوَلَّوْا يَسْتَبْدِلْ قَوْماً غَيْرَكُمْ ثُمَّ لَا يَكُونُوا أَمْثَالَكُمْ} محمد: 38
Transliteration: wain tatawallaw yastabdil qawman ghayrakum thumma la yakoonoo amthalakum (38)
What should be in mind is that the confidence of Allah's victory would be in vain if Muslims fell behind and failed their religion, and followed the current paths of corruption; wines, drugs, crime, creed delusion, different kinds of sex, and the different temptations: football, sex, and satellite channels … etc.
Are Muslims aware that if they took these paths, they will never be triumphed even if they were supported by the entire world since they are not supported by Allah Almighty?
Are they aware that if they triumph Allah Almighty in themselves, Allah the All Powerful and Mighty will triumph them even if the entire world is against them? Are they aware of all that?
One of the things that Muslims should understand, when facing temptations, concerning the confidence of Allah's victory is that the empowerment of the enemies of Allah Almighty happens according to the divine rules, and the perdition of the West happens according to the divine rules as well, in case they did not change themselves.
{And the Word of your Lord has been fulfilled in truth and in justice. None can change His Words. And He is the All-Hearer, the All-Knower.} [Surat Al-`An’âm 6:115]
{وَتَمَّتْ كَلِمَتُ رَبِّكَ صِدْقاً وَعَدْلاً لاَّ مُبَدِّلِ لِكَلِمَاتِهِ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ} الأنعام: 115
Transliteration: Watammat kalimatu rabbika sidqan waAAadlan lamubaddila likalimatihi wahuwa alssameeAAu alAAaleemu (115)
{So no change will you find in Allâh’s Sunnah (way of dealing), and no turning off will you find in Allâh’s Sunnah (way of dealing).} [Surat Fatir 35:43]
{فَلَن تَجِدَ لِسُنَّتِ اللَّهِ تَبْدِيلاً وَلَن تَجِدَ لِسُنَّتِ اللَّهِ تَحْوِيلاً} فاطر: 43
Transliteration: falan tajida lisunnati Allahi tabdeelan walan tajida lisunnati Allahi tahweelan (43)
Hence, those who think that the western civilization is so great that Allah Almighty cannot destroy it, as they own so much means of empowerment, should remember the greatest collapse in history of the greatest autocrat: the communist power represented in the Soviet Union which collapsed as an avalanche.
The West turn is coming. Its financial, military, and political power will not prevent its fate destined by Allah Almighty: {until when the earth is clad in its adornments and is beautified, and its people think that they have all the powers of disposal over it, Our Command reaches it by night or by day and We make it like a clean-mown harvest, as if it had not flourished yesterday! Thus do We explain the Ayât (proofs, evidence, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, laws, etc.) in detail for the people who reflect.} [Surat Yunus 10:24]
{حَتَّىَ إِذَا أَخَذَتِ الأَرْضُ زُخْرُفَهَا وَازَّيَّنَتْ وَظَنَّ أَهْلُهَا أَنَّهُمْ قَادِرُونَ عَلَيْهَا أَتَاهَا أَمْرُنَا لَيْلاً أَوْ نَهَاراً فَجَعَلْنَاهَا حَصِيداً كَأَن لَّمْ تَغْنَ بِالأَمْسِ كَذَلِكَ نُفَصِّلُ الآيَاتِ لِقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ} يونس: 24
Transliteration: hattaitha akhathati alardu zukhrufaha waizzayyanat wathanna ahluha annahum qadiroona AAalayha ataha amrunalaylan aw naharan fajaAAalnaha haseedan kaan lam taghna bialamsi kathalika nufassilu alayati liqawmin yatafakkaroona (24)
Once the western civilization collapses, Islam will be the alternative and Islam only. Are Muslims aware, as they face the temptations of the atheists, of this divine fact and Allah’s rule?
Are they also aware that the West itself admits that they are doomed to failure if they did not change their miserable situation and somber destiny? One of them commented on the ethical corruption that is happening in America:
“I do not think that the greatest danger that threatens our future lies in the automatically directed nuclear bombs and the rockets. I also do not think that our civilization will end that way. However, I think that the American civilization will end and collapse when we become disinterested in what is happening in our society, and when we eager no more to maintain honor and morals in the hearts of the citizens.”
Yes, there are many shouts from here and there that come from confused hearts and tired voices, calling for a rescuer with certain features and characteristics to save them from all temptations. These features and characteristics are only applied to Islam. Do Muslims return really to their religion by which they realize the great divine facts that have been mentioned in the Qur`an and clarified in the Sunnah of the Prophet, prayer and peace of Allah be upon Him?
May Allah grant Muslims' restoration to it and protect us from the failures of life and the torture of the hereafter. Prayer and peace of Allah be upon His Prophet and Worshipper Muhammad, his family, and companions.
