There are some who have this idea that once this Lockdown is lifted, all the restrictions will automatically disappear and things will be normal again.
Think again....Especially from a Muslim's perspective.
The major concepts introduced with this Lockdown are Social Distancing, Sanitizing and Masking.
After fear mongering people into submission, how are you going to remove that fear to make society whole again?
In your Masjid, where the signs of Unity and Brotherhood were something you used to take pride in at one time, these signs are now TOTALLY being destroyed.
After weeks of going directly against the Commands and Desire of our Beloved Nabi Sallalahu Alayhi wasallam, do you think musallis are suddenly going to enjoy standing next to each other, unmasked?
Seeds of Mistrust, suspicion, discrimination and hatred is being sowed, do you think the fruits are going to be Unity, Love, Brotherhood and Inclusion?
Are you then going to use the same Ahadith to try and foster true Islamic Spirit, the Ahadith that you dismissed with disdain and regarded as something trivial?
This Devilish Concepts are not of the, "take these tablets twice a day, and call me after 10 days" type. And then u feel better after 2 days, leaving the medication and forgetting to call after 10 days.. (similar to that, "it's only a couple Salaah, then masjids will open" thinking)
These are of the life changing, behaviour altering, mind and heart controlling type. Lifestyle Changing. A new Selfish, Mistrusting, Paranoid Lifestyle.
The Masjid is chosen for this Satanic Lifestyle. From there, this spreads into the rest of your life. Paranoia everywhere. No more eating together on one dastarkhan. No more physical mashwarah. Visiting of the sick, attending janazas and witnessing Nikahs will become mere memories.
Paranoia in the boardroom, paranoia in the bedroom, paranoia in trade, paranoia in even greeting one another.
If anybody thinks that this is far-fetched and an exaggeration, look around you and reflect. That journey has already begun!
When last were you able to bring comfort to a sick relative or friend? Physically. Not a virtual, generic whatsapp message that eases your guilty conscience.
Did the limiting of 30 or 50 people at a janaza grieve you or deep down within, you had a sense of relief?
How painful it is to find immediate family, even sons afraid to carry the janaza of a father or mother!!!
Yes! That journey has begun! Some are afraid to admit it, some are just biding their time, to see what happens next.
Well, what happens next is another fitna, then another, then another...as taught to us by Our Beloved Nabi Sallalahu Alayhi wasallam.
Allah Ta'ala has given YOU a safety net for all these fitan.
The Shariah and Sunnah of our Beloved Nabi Sallalahu Alayhi wasallam.
This Shariah is not some hastily, man-made set of regulations that can be contested, appealed and discarded as we see happening around us.
No! The Shariah has been designed, perfected and ordained by Your Rabb! Every single facet of your life, no matter how insignificant it may seem, has been catered for.
There is no such a thing that a so called pandemic will overthrow the Shariah because it has not been catered for. Allah Forbid.
That Imaan, and all the Pillars of Deen will be amended to cater for the demands of a virus? Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi Rajioon.
Allah Ta'ala forbid that even a fleeting thought of such heresy enters the mind!
Respected Friends, a constant renewal of Imaan and a constant renewal of pacts with your Rabb must be become the order of your day. Your Jannah is in the Aakhirah. Not here. Here, your Imaan and Adherence to His Deen will be constantly tested. And you have to pass that test. And you have the ability to pass the test.
If there is any social Distancing in a Muslim's life, then it is the Distancing of yourself from all those agents of shaitaan and Dajjaal who are hell bent on destroying your Imaan. No matter how sweet their speech may be, no matter how intelligent they may sound, no matter how much knowledge of even Qur'an and Hadith they may have studied....If the Deen they are calling you to is alien to the Shariah of Nabi Sallalahu Alayhi wasallam, when compared side by side, then run far away....put distances of not just 1 and half metres between you and them, but distances of the sky and ground!
If there is any masking to be done, then mask and muzzle those radio, tv and social media shows that are the tools of these agents of Dajjal.
If there is any Sanitizing to be done, then sanitize your life from these Imaan Destroying vermin and viruses in human form!
Rujoo Illallah! Return to Allah Ta'ala.
Allah Ta'ala gave you HIS Deen. Take it. Love it. Protect it. Defend it. Be it!
Your Beloved Nabi Sallalahu Alayhi wasallam rejected every proposal of compromise in Deen. Even He was not spared. He was mocked at, His Mubarak Blood Spilt, Family torn from him and endured the most horrendous of pain and torture at the hands of the enemies. Physical torture, emotional torture, psychological torture.. but never relented! He could have easily given in to save the life of Sumayya Radhiyallahu anha, Hamza Radhiyallahu anhu, Amr bin Jamooh Radhiyallahu anhu.. or even his own daughter Ruqayyah Radhiyallahu anha...
BUT he allowed them all to attain their Shahadat and Pleasure of Allah Ta'ala.
He endured all that so that DEEN maybe protected and defended. So that today, over 14 hundred years later, his Beautiful Deen could be upheld and practiced by you and me, his Ummatees. Not only practiced and propagated but defended and protected by us as well.
May Allah Ta'ala accept us for this while He is pleased with us.
So, today when you stand side by side in Jamaat Salaah, you are not just making Salaah as usual. This Salaah is different. It is Protection of Deen. It is Acceptance of Deen. It is defending the Truth of every Hadith of Nabi Sallalahu Alayhi wasallam. It is Protection of Imaan.
You may be few in number, with very few of this original Jamaat Salaahs around the world, but YOU are that Ummatee chosen by Allah Ta'ala FOR His Deen. Make dua that Allah Ta'ala accept you for every aspect of Deen. Aameen.
Make no mistake, if this is your standing, then this Salaah of yours will, inshaAllah, be far superior than THAT mockery of a Salaah even if it be in front of The Ka'aba Shareef!
May Allah Ta'ala show us the Truth for what the truth is and accept us to follow it.
May Allah Ta'ala expose falsehood for what falsehood is and protect us from it.
May Allah Ta'ala accept us for the Service of His Deen, His Nabi Sallalahu Alayhi wasallam, His Sahaba Radhiyallahu anhum, His Awliyah Rahmahumullah while He is happy and pleased with us.
May Allah Ta'ala keep us, our families, our progeny upon His Deen.
May Allah Ta'ala grant us success in every test we go through. May Allah Ta'ala allow us to taste the sweetness of Imaan in this world and Hereafter.
Aameen
