Signs of end times.

Nationalism is haram in islam:


*

We must give up the idea of nationalism because it is exactly what is dividing us. Quran says not to be divided, and several hadeeth talk against the disease of nationalism. Is the word of Allah and the messenger of Allah not enough for us ? If we take a look at current problems of Ummah, among other problems, it is obvious that we're divided, and therefore weak.

*

"And hold fast, all of you together, to the Rope of Allâh (i.e. this Qur'ân), and be not divided among yourselves, and remember Allâh's Favour on you, for you were enemies one to another but He joined your hearts together, so that, by His Grace, you became brethren (in Islâmic Faith), and you were on the brink of a pit of Fire, and He saved you from* it. Thus Allâh makes His Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.,) clear to you, that you may be guided."

Q.3:105

*

"And be not as those who divided and differed among themselves after the clear proofs had come to them. It is they for* whom there is an awful torment."

Q.6:159

*

"Verily, those who divide their religion and break up into sects (all kinds of religious sects), you (O Muhammad SAW)* have no concern in them in the least. Their affair is only with Allâh, Who then will tell them what they used to do."

Q.23:52

*

*"And verily this Ummah of yours IS A SINGLE UMMAH and I am your Lord and Cherisher: Therefore Fear Me* (and no other)."

Q.23:53

*

"But people have cut off their affair (of unity), between them, into sects: Each party rejoices in that which is with itself."

Q.30:32

*

"Those who SPLIT up their religion, and become mere sects each party rejoicing in that which is with itself!"

Q.42:13: ".

*

.....that ye should remain steadfast in religion and make no DIVISIONS therein..... "

Q.49:13

*

*

"O Men, We created you from male and female and made you peoples and tribes that you may KNOW one another*(NOT THAT YOU MAY DESPISE EACH OTHER)."

Q.30:22

*

"And among His Signs is the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the difference of your languages and colours. Verily, in that are indeed signs for men of sound knowledge."

*

Lets analyze, and see what the Quran's verses quoted above are all about.

*

The verses above are ordering and warning us not to be divided, split up, or form sects out of the religion. We're created into so many different beautiful races, and cultures so that we KNOW each other, NOT get divided into many different countries, etc.

*

*

*

Nationalism is also a way of disuniting the UMMAH. As currently seen in the world, we are over FIFTY-FIVE MUSLIM COUNTRIES AND GROWING ! There should only be ONE Muslim country (Khilafah).

* *

*

*Quraan CLEARLY orders us NOT to be Divided

*

Quran CLEARLY orders us NOT to be divided and separated and yet we have REFUSED to do so and decided to live in over 55 countries.

*

*

*

We are too busy being proud Palestinian, Jordanian, Yemeni, Turkish, Iranian, Iraqi, Saudi Arabian, Syrian, Pakistani, Kashmiri, Chechen, Bosnian, Algerian, Libyan, Egyptian, Moroccan, Lebanese, Bengali, etc. How many more nationalities are we going to see in the UMMAH ? How many more divisions? How many more separations ? The Kaffir are killing us one by one, as seen in the "New World Order"

*

(Chechnya, Bosnia, Kashmir, etc). Divide-and-conquer is really working on the UMMAH. Lets all work together to put an end to this nonsense called Nationalism, a completely alien, and forbidden ideology in Islam.

The Hadith Says:

*

Resources From* Messenger of Allah (Salal Lahu Alehi Wasalam)

Nationalism is HARAM because the Prophet Mohammad (saw) said in the following Hadeeths:

"Leave it. It is Rotten*" [Bukhari & Muslim] refers to all forms of Asabiyah, nationalism, racism, and patriotism.*

*

Grouping the Muslims on tribalistic lines is clearly forbidden. It is narrated by Abu Daud that the Messenger of Allah (Salal Lahu Alehi Wasalam) said, "He is not one us who calls for `Asabiyah, (nationalism/tribalism) or who fights for `Asabiyah or who dies for `Asabiyah."

*

" ...People should give up their pride in nations because this is a coal from the coals of hell-fire. If they do not give this up Allah (swt) will consider them lower than a lowly worm which pushes itself through khur (feces)." [abu Dawd and Tirmidhi].

*

In the Hadith recorded in Mishkat al-Masabith, the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, "He who calls for `Asabiyyah is as if he bit his father's genitals" Also, the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, narrated by At-Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud, "There are indeed people who boast of their dead ancestors; but in the sight of Allah they are more contemptible than the black beetle that rolls a piece of dung with its nose. Behold, Allah has removed from you the arrogance of the Time of Jahiliyyah (Ignorance) with its boast of ancestral glories. Man is but an Allah-fearing believer or an unfortunate sinner. All people are the children of Adam, and Adam was created out of dust."*

*

Also, the Messenger of Allah (saw) said, "Undoubtedly Allah has removed from you the pride of arrogance of the age of Jahilliyah (ignorance) and the glorification of ancestors. Now people are of two kinds. Either believers who are aware or transgressors who do wrong. You are all the children of Adam and Adam was made of clay. People should give up their pride in nations because that is a coal from the coals of Hell-fire. If they do not give this up Allah (swt) will consider them lower than the lowly worm which pushes itself through Khara (dung)." [Abu Dawud and Tirmidhi]

*

When the news reached the Messenger of Allah (Salal Lahu Alehi Wasalam), he (saw) said, "O Muslims, remember Allah, remember Allah. Will you act as pagans while I am present with you after Allah has guided you to Islam, and honored you thereby and made a clean break with paganism; delivered you thereby from disbelief; and made you friends thereby?" When they heard this they wept, and embraced each other.

*

This incident clearly highlights how the Messenger of Allah (Salal Lahu Alehi Wasalam) rebuked any forms of tribalism.*

*

It is narrated by Qatada that Ibnu Abi Hathim said that in the verses quoted above Allah (swt) has ordered the Muslims to hold fast to the book of Allah, His Deen, and to his covenant, and He has forbidden the Muslims to divide amongst themselves and to dispute with each other. In another incident, Jabir ibn `Abd Allah al Ansari, narrated what happened at the watering place of al Muraysi which led to the Munafiqun stirring up the traces of `Asabiyah and seeking to destroy the unity of the Muslims. He said: "We were on a raid when one of the Muhajirun kicked one of the Ansar.

*

The Ansar said, `O Ansar! Help me! (calling his tribe) and the Muhajir said, `O Muhajirun! Help me! (calling his tribe). The Messenger of Allah (saw) heard them and said, "Why are you stirring up something which belongs to Jahilliyah?" The Messenger of Allah (saw) did not deal with the situation only by speaking to his men, but he walked with the men all that day until nightfall, and through the night until morning and during the following day until the sun distressed them. Then he halted them, and as soon as they touched the ground, they fell asleep. He did this to distract their minds from what had transpired.*

*

It is transmitted by at-Tabarani and al-Hakim that in one incident some people spoke very lowly about Salman al-Farsi. They spoke of the inferiority of the Persian in relation to the Arabs, and upon hearing this the Messenger of Allah (saw) declared, "Salman is from us, the ahl al-bayt (the Prophet's family)." This statement of the Messenger of Allah (saw) disassociates all links based on lineage and tribal considerations.*

*

It was also transmitted, in two different versions, by Ibn al-Mubarak in his two books, Al-Birr and As-Salah, that some disagreement occurred between Abu Dharr and Bilal and Abu Dharr said to Bilal, "You son of a black woman."*The Messenger of Allah (Salal Lahu Alehi Wasalam) was extremely upset by Abu Dharr's comment, so he (Salal Lahu Alehi Wasalam) rebuked him by saying, "That is too much, Abu Dharr. He who has a white mother has no advantage which makes him better than the son of a black mother." This rebuke had a profound effect on Abu Dharr, who then put his head on the ground swearing that he would not raise it until Bilal had put his foot over it. These incidents demonstrate that tribal ties have no place in Islam. Muslims are commanded to stick together and not to disassociate themselves from each other just because they come from different tribes.*

*

The Messenger of Allah (saw) also said, "The believers, in their love, mutual kindness, and close ties, are like one body; when any part complains, the whole body responds to it with wakefulness and fever." [Muslim], "The faithful are like one man: if his eyes suffers, his whole body suffers." [Muslim], "An Arab is no better than a non-Arab. In return, a non-Arab is no better than an Arab. A red raced man was not better than a black one except in piety. Mankind are all Adam's children and Adam was created out of clay." [Al-Bukhari and Muslim, on the authority of Abu Musa] Meaning that the Muslims, whether they are of Chinese, African, European or Asian origin, are one Ummah and they cannot be separated from each other.*

*

No tribalistic ties should ever break their unity. The Messenger of Allah (saw) said, "The Faithful are to one another like [parts of] a building - each part strengthening the others" and "Every Muslim is a brother to a Muslim, neither wronging him nor allowing him to be wronged. And if anyone helps his brother in need, Allah will help him in his own need; and if anyone removes a calamity from [another] Muslim, Allah will remove from him some of the calamities of the Day of Resurrection; and if anyone shields [another] Muslim from disgrace, Allah will shield him from the disgrace on the Day of Resurrection." [Al-Bukhari and Muslim, on the authority of `Abd Allah ibn `Umar].*

*

Some people claim that the Messenger of Allah (saw) approved of nationalism because during the migration to Madinah, he (saw) said about Makkah with tears in his (saw) eyes, "You are the most beloved land of Allah to me." However, this saying has nothing to do with nationalism, and this can be seen from the full saying which people often do not quote, "You are the most beloved land of Allah to me because you are the most beloved land of Allah to Allah."
The Messenger of Allah's (saw) love for Makkah was based on the noble status that Allah (swt) has given to Makkah, and not because he (saw) was born there. All Muslims should have this love and affection for Makkah because it is the most beloved land in the sight of Allah (swt). After all, the Muslims pray towards Makkah and go there to perform Hajj there as it houses the Ka'ba.*

*

The above saying of the Messenger of Allah (saw) therefore has nothing to do with nationalism. If Rasoolillah (saw) and the Muhajireen amongst the Sahabah (ra) were tied to the homeland (of Makkah), they would have settled in Makkah after it became part of the Islamic State.
Not only does Islam forbid people from grouping on nationalistic ties, but it also prohibits the establishment of more than one state, whether these states are based on nationalism or otherwise. The only state that is allowed for the Muslims is the Islamic State, which is a state that is governed exclusively by Islam.
Allah (swt) addressed the Messenger (saw), "And rule between them by that which Allah revealed to you, and do not follow their vain desires away from the truth which came to you" [Surah Al-Madinah (5): ayah 48].
And, "And rule between them by that which Allah revealed to you and do not follow their whims, and beware (be on the alert) that they may deviate you away from even some part of what Allah revealed to you." [Surah Al-Maidah (5): ayah 49].

[ghumbasa]

And when they meet those who believe, they say: "We believe," but when they are alone with their Shayatin (devils - polytheists, hypocrites, etc.), they say: "Truly, we are with you; verily, we were but mocking." [2:14]

And when it is said to them: "Come to what Allah has sent down and to the Messenger (Muhammad)," you (Muhammad) see the hypocrites turn away from you (Muhammad) with aversion. [4:61]

Verily, the hypocrites seek to deceive Allah, but it is He Who deceives them. And when they stand up for As-Salat (the prayer), they stand with laziness and to be seen of men, and they do not remember Allah but little. [4:142]


Characteristics of the Munafiqeen:

According to Sahīh Bukhārī, the Prophet saww said, "Whoever has the following four (characteristics) will be a pure hypocrite and whoever has one of the following four characteristics will have one characteristic of hypocrisy unless and until he gives it up.*

1. Whenever he is entrusted, he betrays.
2. Whenever he speaks, he tells a lie.
3. Whenever he makes a covenant, he proves treacherous.
4.*Whenever he quarrels, he behaves in a very imprudent, evil and insulting manner.

Might this be a lesson to people who act in this way.

[ghumbasa]

In Turkish "nifak", although used to mean hypocrisy in a religious context, has the general meaning of "discord". I wondered if this meaning developed later, or whether it is/ was the same in Arabic too.


Al-Sagani transmitted three opinions from ibn al-Anbari regarding the reasoning for naming the hypocrite “munafiq.”
1.The first opinion is that he was given that name, because he covers his kufr and conceals it, so he was likened to the one who enters a “nafaq,” tunnel, and hides in it.
2.The second opinion is that he does the action of “naafaqa” like a jerboa (a type of burrowing rodent), because he exits iman from a way different than the one through which he entered it.
3.The third opinion is that he is named that due to his exhibiting other than that which is concealed, likening him to the jerboa (because its burrow is a solid dirt structure on the outside but hollow on the inside), for similarly, the hypocrites exterior is iman and his interior is kufr. The hadith “most of the hypocrites of this ummah are its qurra`” falls under this definition; here, he intended by nifaq riya`, because both of them are the exhibiting of something that is not on the inside.

"Do not back-bite Muslims, and do not search for their faults, for if anyone
searches for their faults, Allah will search for his fault."
(Narrated Abu Barzah al-Aslami, Sunan Abu Dawud, Book 41, Hadith 4862)

"Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or he is an oppressed one. People
asked, "O Allah's Apostle! It is all right to help him if he is oppressed, but how
should we help him if he is an oppressor?" The Prophet said, "By preventing him
from oppressing others."
(Narrated Anas, Bukhari, Book 3, Volume 43, Hadith 624).

"Verily the knowledge of the Hour is with Allah (alone). It is He Who sends down rain, and He Who knows what is in the wombs. Nor does anyone know what it is that he will earn on the morrow: Nor does anyone know in what land he is to die. Verily with Allah is full knowledge and He is acquainted (with all things)."[Al-Qur'an 31:34]

When Gabriel (Jibril),peace be upon him, came to the Prophet saww in the guise of a Bedouin, he asked him about Islam,iman(faith) and ihsan (excellence of faith); and the Prophet saww answered his questions.
But when he asked him about the Hour, he said,"The one questioned about it knows no better than the questioner."Jibril said, "Tell me about its signs." Then the Prophet described them, as we shall see later when we quote this hadith and others in full.

Hudhayfah said:"The Prophet stood up one day to speak to us, and told us everything that was going to happen until the Hour, and left nothing unsaid. Some of the listeners learnt it by heart, and some forgot it; these friends of mine learnt it. I do not remember it completely, but sometimes it springs to mind, just as one might remember and recognise the face of a man whom one had forgotten, when one sees him."[Abu Dawud, Muslim]

(Sahih al-Bukhari)
A Bedouin asked the Prophet saww about the Hour. He said,"It will surely come to pass. What have you prepared for it?"
The man said, "O Messenger of Allah, I have not prepared much in the way of prayer and good works, but I love Allah and His Messenger."
The Prophet saww said,"You will be with those you love."The Muslims had never rejoiced as much they did when they heard this hadith.

[ghumbasa]

Imam Ahmad reported via Abu Nudrah that Abu Sa'id ra said:
"One day the Prophet saww led us in praying the afternoon prayer (salatul-'asr). Then he stood and addressed us until sunset. He mentioned everything that was to happen until the Day of Resurrection, and left nothing unsaid. Some of us remembered it, and some of us forgot it.
One of the things he said was:'O people, this world is full of attractive temptations. Allah has appointed you as vicegerents (khalifah) in this world, and He will see how you will act. So guard yourselves against the temptations of this world and of women.'Towards the end of this speech, he said,'The sun is about to set, and what remains of this world, compared to what has passed, is like what remains of this day compared to what has passed.'"


Hudhayfah ibn al-Yaman said,"People used to ask the Prophet, peace be upon him, about good things, but I used to ask him about bad things because I was afraid that they might overtake me. I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, we were lost in ignorance (jahiliyyah) and evil, then Allah brought this good (i.e. Islam). Will some evil come after this good thing?'
He said, 'Yes'
I asked, 'And will some good come after that evil?'
He said,'Yes, but it will be tainted with some evil'
I asked, 'How will it be tainted?'
He said,'There will be some people who will lead others on a path different from mine. You will see good and bad in them.'
I asked, 'Will some evil come after that good?' He said,'Some people will be standing and calling at the gates of Hell; whoever responds to their call, they will throw him into the Fire.'
I said, 'O Messenger of Allah, describe them for us.'
He said,'They will be from our own people, and will speak our language.'
'I asked, 'What do you advise me to do if I should live to see that?'
He said, 'Stick to the main body (jama'ah) of the Muslims and their leader (imam).
'I asked, What if there is no main body and no leader?'
He said,'Isolate yourself from all of these sects, even if you have to eat the roots of trees until death overcomes you while you are in that state.'"

'Abdullah ibn Mas'ud said: "The Prophet saww said,
'Islam began as something strange, and it will revert to being strange as it was in the beginning, so good tidings for the strangers(ghuraba).'Someone asked, 'Who are the strangers?'
He said,'The ones who break away from their people (literally, 'tribes') for the sake of Islam.'"

This hadith was narrated by Ibn Majah on the authority of 'Anas and Abu Hurayrah.

"Those who immigrate for the sake of God, then get killed, or die, God will surely shower them with good provisions"*22:58


"The day will come when we will raise from every community a 'Shaheed' (witness) from among them."16:89


The Sahaba asked Rasulullah (saw) "How come the Shaheed will not suffer the pain of death or have to go through the horror and the terror of the day of judgement." Rasulullah (saw) said "It is enough that he had to go through seeing the glittering of swords in front of his eyes."

[ghumbasa]

"Think not of those who are killed in the Way of Allâh as dead. Nay, they are alive, with their Lord, and they have provision." [3: 169]

It is also proved in Sahih Muslim that*Masrooq*said:*'We asked*Abdullah Ibn Masoud*about the meaning of the verse, who said: 'We asked about that.
Ibn Masoud*added: The souls of martyrs live in inside of green birds, who have their nests in chandeliers, hung from the throne of The Almighty. They go out freely in the Paradise, then return to those chandeliers.
Once their Lord (Allah) looked down at them and said: 'Do you wish something?' They answered: 'Which thing do we wish since we go out freely in the Paradise'.
He (The Exalted) did that thrice. Then, when they believed that Allah will not leave them unless they ask for something.
They said: 'O Lord! We desire that our souls be returned to our bodies so that we can be killed again. Then, when Allah saw (and He Knew that before) that they had no need, so they were left'*.*al-Qurtubi*said:*'Only to martyrs food and comfort are hastened'*

[ghumbasa]

It is recorded in al-Bukhari and Muslim from Ibn Umar (Radiya Allahu Anhu) who said that prophet saww :"When one among you dies, he is shown his position. If he is one of people of Paradise, he is shown his place in Paradise; and if he is one of the people of the Hell-fire, he is shown his place in the Hell-fire.
Then, it is said: "This is your position until Allah raises you from the dead on the Day of Resurrection"*

You have not created (all) this without purpose, glory to You! (Exalted be You above all that they associate with You as partners)"(3:190,191)

"Do they not look at the camels, how they are created? And at the heaven, how it is raised? And at the mountains, how they are rooted (and fixed firm)? And at the earth, how it is spread out? So remind them (O Muhammad (PBUH)), you are only a one who reminds"(88:17-21)
