I ask you.
I work from 8 to 3, means I have time to permanently do imamath in my masjid for 4 prayers.
I can teach deeniath to Children and elders, asar to late night, without any salary. Donate Fee collected to scholar. Keep him as consultant over the phone. He will open a pan and cigarette shop and earn.
No sir! You have misunderstood what I am trying to say.
1. Ulema who are capable of becoming Muftis, Shaykh ul Hadith, Mufassireen can pursue the deeni part.
2. Ulema who have the potential to become professional journalists must specialize in that field.
3. Ulema who can become software engineers or programmers should pursue that part.
4. Ulema who have interest in digital and social media must pursue that path.
They can pursue their respective fields, can earn halal and decent living and yet do khidmat of deen as well. The only thing which is needed is a change of mindset and a likeness of taking interest in worldly affairs and become leaders of the world in this aspect as well.
Why is there only one sincere deen oriented journalist in Pakistan named Orya Maqbool Jan? Can you guess? The secular and naughty element of the society has overtaken media and is manipulating the minds of the masses. Who is to blame? The religious folks are to be blamed? They neglected and the others took advantage of that neglect.
For my children I need Shariah complaint ready made clothes without cartoons and animate images. Guess what! I can't find any. Why? Because the practicing folks think that the only khidmat of deen is building madaris and masajid or investment on food banks or donating in some charity organization and that's it. Why didn't the practicing ones take interest in Islamic Garments industry? Why can't the practicing ones manufacture Islamic toys at massive scale? Why can't the practicing ones produce Islamic art without animate images so that they could educate kids in an Islamic but fun way?
People don't want to establish khilafah and yet they also don't want to create a parallel Islamic reality in this kafir system. What should I call them? Lazy...
Some time back, there were no exclusive burkha shops. Today there are exclusive markets for burkhas. Hundreds of shops, sea of black clothing. We change the market follows us.
It is not problem with ulema, they do what we assign them.
We must change. And we can't wait for khilafat, we can act today also, no one stops us.
You create the demand, then, you need not search for the shop.
Today even the so called deendaar like to see a Bollywood hero or a heroine in their children. Abhi Bacha hai sab, kya umar hai uski.
I buy cloth and get Stitch sharaee dress for children.
We are not living in pious times. The deendar ones have to change their attitude.
When some ulema said to Maulana Ilyas RH that why should ulema go to the awam. The thirsty has to come to the well and not the other way around. He replied "Don't be a well but a cloud".
Otherwise don't complain when Dr.Zakir Naik and Dr.Israr Ahmed RH take the cake.
We are not complaining about zakir naik & co. It is the awwam which is getting fooled. Many get fooled by qadianis etc. Ulema do their best through their academics to silence many baatil groups . They would have silenced zakir naik also if it was one to one academic debate.
And regarding Mol Ilyas Sab RA, it is "dawah of amal" not ilm which has to reach awwam. to get ilm, awwam have to go to aalim. A aalim need not go to awwam and say, "ilm le lo bhai", "ilm le lo bhai". But to bring to masjid, or to give dawah of basics of islam they have to meet masses.
A aalim need not go to awwam and say, "ilm le lo bhai", "ilm le lo bhai". But to bring to masjid, or to give dawah of basics of islam they have to meet masses.
No doubt about it but the ulema have to digitize the essential ilm for the awaam because not everybody has the luxury to go to madaris. Satan is educating the masses through media. Where are the ahlul haq?
Seven Steps Of Highly Effective Muslims - lecture By Shaikh Hamza Yusuf
Pointers on the Sphere of Influence and Circle Of Concern:
Circle of concern -
As Muslims we need to be concern about what is happening to Bosina, Iraq, Egypt, Palestine. As the one who is not concern about the affairs of the Muslims is not from among them - Hadith.
We have a wide circle of concern, it even transgress the ummah because we are concerned about the kuffar as well - because it is our duty to spread the deen to them, hence Muslims have a huge circle of concern.
Sphere of Influence -
Our circle of influence is limited, each one of us has a limited amount of work we can do, we need to recognise our limitations. All of us have something which we are in charge of and we would be responsible only for our circle of influence, Allah will not take us to account for things outside our responsibility.
It is our circle of influence to effect that greater circle of concern. If we focus on our circle of influence and not on our circle of concern, the effect is that our circle of influence increase by the nature of it. But, if we are always focusing on our circle of concern and forget what we can actually do, the circle of influence decreases.
. All of us have something which we are in charge of and we would be responsible only for our circle of influence, Allah will not take us to account for things outside our responsibility.
If I deliver honestly my responsibilities, that surely will influence and affect the solution for bigger problems.
in dawa o tablig it has always been taught to bring awam towards the masjid then give dawa there
there is an environment to do dawa
now what happened with dr naik (h) or dr israr ahmed (r)?
it is not easy look at muslim brotherhd they came when vacuum was created what happened?
u know who was their biggest competitor? they were the salafist party who threaten them
we lack unity
one prson in nikkah of his sibling brought his peer who was deobandi and also brelwi imam who was his local imam
later the prson thought his peer may not be happy but his peer said you did a really good thing by calling him it brings unity
the brelwi imam himself was so happy and praised and said i see this nikkah one in thousand
this prson was not aalim no hafiz just a normal young man
all he did was act as a neutral person bringing both parties together
why can we not do this first before going to social media?
lets solve our own issues just like we have our own limits
Okay Make dua for me that may Allah make it easy for me. I am already doing by the way what I can do. Please pray for istiqamat and correct intention and righteous ending for me as well as the whole ummah.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
