Brother xs11ax, what is unfortunate these days is. Anyone who has difference of opinion to us is automatically far away from deen, he doesn't like sunnah, he pleases kuffar and doesn't have emaan. What else can be said.
Dear brother by the Grace of Allah SWT I have reached the action plan that I want to follow myself and I invite all of my brothers and sisters to the same. I mean those brothers and sisters who agree with my assessment and who have got time, energy and other resources to be part to this task, project and mission. And indeed there is no compulsion on anybody of any kind. Plus I do not have any objection, grudge or complain against my brothers adopting other routes towards the solution to the problems that we want to solve. My focus on the main is on two issues - to remove the western encroachment from our life space at the global level and in India to get an equitable deal for the Muslims of India. I am sure there are many other problems that Ummah is facing but with my limited capabilities I can not cover any more points. At the global level I feel that the plan of action will evolve around creating an academic campaign to converge Muslim intellectuals onto the point that indeed west has got near full control of Muslim Ummah by way of encroachment on our life space. Once our academia is with us we have to pool, regroup, organize our sources so as to serve the west a notice to back out. In India the approach will revolve around realizing our democratic potential and then go about solving our worldly problems here. In India even at official level there are 14.2 percent Muslims but our percentage in jobs, business, industry and even politics is meager. Nothing can be done till we realize our political and democratic potential by increasing our representation in the Parliament and the state assemblies to the tune of 14.2 percent. Only then we can think of the ways to bargain for proportionate share in other walks of life.
These two issues are big enough for me and I intend to focus on these. I have been breaking my head on these issues for about a decade by now - both at the Sunni Forum and lately at the MuftiSays. Personally it has been a very excruciating journey for me because by disposition my inclination is towards scientific discipline and the problems that I have been focusing upon are social and political and hence I was not , I could not have been, functioning at peak efficiency. Sadly I did not notice too many people working on the same angles, outside of SF and MS, in spite of the fact there is a large number of Muslims who care for the Ummah and who have been putting valiant efforts for the same cause. Thus it took me a long time to reach the conclusions that I have summarized above. By the Grace of God now I myself can go to the implementation part but there my role is not that crucial except t look for suitable people who can work on the implementation part.
I hope these points clarify my attitude, stand and plan as well as the genesis of the whole process that I have gone through.
Brother Maripat, I agree with you and I am not disregarding your discussion. The problem with our society is there are very very very few people who actually want to change. And the moment you start working practically on something, you get questions like:
1. What is your benefit in this ?
2. Are your intentions correct ?
3. Why would someone do this without personal benefit ?
4. You might be misusing Islam & Sunnah name for your benefit ?
and I can add many more questions. Why not we try to build some practical models on schooling, business, politics and enrol people in these causes. I personally feel, one person is enough to create something, we start with small cause and people will start following gradually. You know like you show them, this is the thing and please join this work and put your efforts.
PS: I am working on few such projects and it's a small effort from my end. Please don't think I am just giving free suggestions to you.
Two days ago a person commented on a video in my youtube channel that (Molvi Sahab lol! Innocent people) I am 26 years old and I don't know how to recite quran. Because of my age I always have been shy to go anywhere. Please make dua for me.
After reading this comment, my resolve for doing dawah work (especially online) became more strong and Insha Allah I will never leave this work till the last drop of blood in me and till I have access to electricity and internet.
We need more knowledgeable Muslims for online dawah because youtube and internet reaches there where even tablighis and others can't reach.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
