MOROCCO'S ISLAMIC GROUPS FAIL TO REFER TO ISLAM

There is currently a plethora of 'Islamic' groups who are ironically failing to refer to Islam. For example in a recent interview granted to the weekly "Al Ousbouya Al Jadida", Nadia Yassine shamelessly called for a republican regime to replace the monarchy in Morocco. Daughter of Abdessalam Yassine (leader of the 'Islamic' movement Al Adl Wal Ihsane in Morocco), she is now suffering a backlash from other so called 'Islamic' groups within Morocco. Unfortunately their stance has been equally ridiculous as they subserviently defend the monarchical system. Up until now not one of these 'Islamic' groups has referred to Islam and the necessity for Morocco to adopt the Islamic ruling system, in fact they have openly contradicted it.


Firstly the framework of the Islamic ruling system is not monarchical and nor does it have anything in common with it.


1) The monarchical system of government adopts a hereditary rule; sons inherit the throne from their fathers, and they inherit their legacies.


- In Islam, there is no hereditary rule; the rule is performed by who the Ummah gives her bayah of allegiance to willingly and selectively.


2) The monarchical system allows the monarch special privileges and rights exclusive to him. He is above the law and is answerable to none while at the same time is the symbol of the country. Thus monarchs such as the kings of Saudi Arabia, and Jordan as well as Morocco make themselves the source of law, while abandoning the Islamic Shari'ah and torturing and imprisoning those who struggle for it. This is categorically forbidden in Islam.


- The Islamic system does not allow the Khaleefah or the Imam any special privileges or rights. He has the same equal rights and duties of every single individual of the Ummah and is not their symbol. He is forbidden from running the people’s affairs as he pleases; rather he is a trustee (representative) of the Ummah in rule and in authority. It is the Ummah that select him and give him the bayah of allegiance to implement upon her Allah SWT's Shari’ah. The Khaleefah is guided and restricted in his actions by the Islamic Shari’ah unlike the monarchs in the Muslim world who use 'Islamic' slogans to manipulate the Ummah and serve the interests of their master, the United States of America.


The Islamic ruling system is not republican either as the republican system is based on the democratic regime, where the sovereignty is to the people.


1) In the republican system the people have the right to rule and legislate, they reserve the right to appoint the ruler and depose him. They reserve the right to adopt a constitution and enact new laws, abolish, alter or modify them.


- This is in complete contradiction to the Islamic ruling system which is based on the Islamic Aqeedah and gives the sovereignty to the Shari’ah of Allah SWT and not to the people (Ummah). Neither the Ummah nor the Khaleefah have the right to legislate, rather the sole legislator is the Allmighty Allah SWT. The Khaleefah has only the right to adopt the rules which are derived from the Qur'an and the Sunnah. In addition while the Ummah have the right to appoint the Khaleefah they don't have the right to remove him; what removes him is the Islamic Shari’ah. Indeed he is removed only if he violates the Shari’ah in such a way that the court of Unjust Acts deems it deserving of his removal. Therefore in Islam the authority belongs to the Ummah, who is represented by a Khaleefah who she selects and gives the bayah to.


2) In the Presidential framework of the Republican system, the president of the republic takes up the mandatory powers of the head of state and prime minister. His cabinet is without a prime minister, but instead secretaries of state, as in the U.S. In the parliamentary framework, the president has a prime minister, and the mandatory ruling powers are in the hands of the ministerial cabinet not the president of the republic as in France and Germany.


- In the Islamic System there are no ministers or council of ministers working with the Khaleefah. Unlike the democratic system, where ministers have special portfolios and mandatory powers of their own, Islam determines that the Khaleefah has assistants who work and assist him with the executive duties. Thus the Khaleefah heads them in his capacity as the head of state and not as a prime minister or head of an executive body. The Khaleefah has no council of ministers working with him and has all the mandatory powers whereby his assistants help him to execute those mandatory powers.


3) In the republican system, whether it is presidential or parliamentary, the term of the presidency is fixed and cannot be exceeded.


The Islamic system on the other hand does not determine the Khaleefah’s term of office. The term is determined by the implementation of the Shari’ah, for as long as the Khaleefah is implementing the Islamic rules to the full, he remains a Khaleefah in office, regardless of how long his Khilafah term lasts. If the Khaleefah violated the Shari’ah, and deviated from implementing the Islamic rules, his term in office would be terminated even if it were for one month, or one day; he must be removed.


We sincerely ask the Islamic Ummah and her 'representatives' to be aware of the Islamic System and to avoid referring to anything that violates it. It is imperative that we are not supporting or calling for that which is in line with the Kufr American agenda i.e. the Republican system, or that which aids our treacherous, tyrannical rulers i.e. the Monarchical system. The only suitable system for the Islamic Ummah to live and die for is the system revealed to us by Allah SWT, the Islamic System – the only system capable of truly salvaging mankind from its current misery and enslavement.

How many of us are Muslim, yet have never read the Quran in our native language?


How many of us are Muslim, yet have yet to open a book on hadith or sunnah?


How many of us defend Islam to non-Muslims, but do not follow it ourselves?


Each of us needs to decide. Is Islam right or not? Why don't we take the time, just once, once in our lives to find out if Islam is right. Is the Quran from God or not? We can't see God, but is there a maker to all this? We need to study nature, and the world. We only live once, if Islam is wrong then we should leave it, but if it's right we shouldn't go halfway. We shouldn't go to a club thinking we are only going to 'hang out and are not doing anything wrong' then feel guilty about it later. We shouldn't go on a date or drink, then feel guilty about it, worrying about hellfire. If Islam is right, we should follow it.

ASALAMOALAIKUM,


i found the following fatwa from Dr Ahmad kutty(www.islamicinstitute.ca) .. plz give your views that wot do u think .... JAZAKALLAH


Answer:


Music is an issue that has been hotly debated by scholars of the past and the present. While many of them have been generally inclined to condemn all forms of music—with the singular exception of al-dduff (tambourine) in weddings--, quite a few of them have taken a more positive approach of considering only music containing sensual, pagan, or unethical themes or subliminal messages as being categorically forbidden.


The latter view seems to be more consistent with the general nature of Islam, which is undoubtedly a complete way of life that caters to all of the genuine human instincts and needs within permissible limits. Thus to say that all music is forbidden in Islam does not seem to agree with the balanced approach of Islam to issues of human life and experience.


Traditions often cited by the first group scholars to justify condemnation of all musical instruments and music, according to some scholars, are considered as either spurious, or phrased in such way solely because of their associations with drinking, dancing, and sensuality.


While everyone agrees that all forms of music that contain pagan, sensual themes, or subliminal messages are clearly forbidden, the latter group of scholars considers all forms of music free of such themes and messages as permissible.


As a matter of fact, we know from the authentic traditions that the Prophet, peace be upon him, not only allowed music in the weddings but also listened to girls singing: While listening to girls singing on such an occasion, he interrupted them only once when they sang the following verse, “In our midst is a prophet who knows what will happen tomorrow”; whence, the Prophet, peace be upon him, told them, “Cut this sentence out, and continue singing what you had been singing earlier.”


There is nothing in the sources to indicate that the above permission is limited to the occasion of wedding, as some people tend to think.


In light of these, according to the last mentioned group of scholars, music that is deemed to be free of un-Islamic and unethical themes and messages—the same is true of musical instruments so long as they are not used for the above—have been considered as permissible.


A final word: Islam clearly prohibits mixed dancing of males and females.

If scrutinized in terms of cosmic, physical, mathematical and bio-chemical aspects, from micro level to macro level, the Universe proves to be supplied with the most suitable design for human life.


From the expansional rate of the Universe to the location of Earth in the Solar System, from percengates of athmospheric gases to properties of sunlight, innumerous equilibriums are sustained each second and each hour. Not even one of these arrangements may occur by chance. All obey the infallible wisdom of God exhibiting His might and art.This web site displays the evidence for the creation of the Universe and it reveals the eternal might and wisdom of God, who created this great universe from nothingness.

DURING THAT AUTUMN I was living in my uncle Dorian's house just inside the Old City of Jerusalem. It rained almost every day and, not being able to go out much, I often sat at the window which overlooked a large yard behind the house. This yard belonged to an old Arab who was called hajji because he had performed the pilgrimage to Mecca; he rented out donkeys for riding and carrying and thus made the yard a kind of caravanserai.


Every morning, shortly before dawn, loads of vegetables and fruits were brought there on camels from the surrounding villages and sent out on donkeys into the narrow bazaar streets of the town. In daytime the heavy bodies of the camels could be seen resting on the ground; men were always noisily attending to them and to the donkeys, unless they were forced to take refuge in the stables from the streaming rain. They were poor, ragged men, those camel and donkey drivers, but they behaved like great lords. When they sat together at meals on the ground and ate flat loaves of wheat bread with a little bit of cheese or a few olives, I could not but admire the nobility and ease of their bearing and their inner quiet: you could see that they had respect for themselves and the everyday things of their lives. The hajji, hobbling around on a stick -for he suffered from arthritis and had swollen knees -was a kind of chieftain among them ; they appeared to obey him without question. Several times a day he assembled them for prayer and, if it was not raining too hard, they prayed in the open: all the men in a single, long row and he as their imam in front of them. They were like soldiers in the precision of their movements- they would bow together in the direction of Mecca, rise again, and then kneel down and touch the ground with their foreheads; they seemed to follow the inaudible words of their leader, who between the prostrations stood barefoot on his prayer carpet, eyes closed, arms folded over his chest, soundlessly moving his lips and obviously lost in deep absorption: you could see that he was praying with his whole soul.


It somehow disturbed me to see so real a prayer combined with almost mechanical body movements, and one day I asked the hajji, who understood a little English :


<b>'Do you really believe that God expects you to show Him your respect by repeated bowing and kneeling and prostration ? Might it not be better only to look into oneself and to pray to Him in the stillness of one's heart ? Why all these movements of your body ?'</b>



As soon as I had uttered these words I felt remorse, for 1 had not intended to injure the old man's religious feelings. But the hajji did not appear in the least offended. He smiled with his toothless mouth and replied :


<b>'How else then should we worship God ? Did He not create both, soul and body, together? And this being so, should man not pray with his body as well as with his soul ?</b> Listen, I will tell you why we Muslims pray as we pray. We turn toward the Kaaba, God's holy temple in Mecca, knowing that the faces of all Muslims, wherever they may be, are turned to it in prayer, and that we are like one body, with Him as the centre of our thoughts. First we stand upright and recite from the Holy Koran, remembering that it is His Word, given to man that he may be upright and steadfast in life. Then we say, "God is the Greatest," reminding ourselves that no one deserves to be worshipped but Him; and bow down deep because we honour Him above all, and praise His power and glory. Thereafter we prostrate ourselves on our foreheads because we feel that we are but dust and nothingness before Him, and that He is our Creator and Sustainer on high. Then we lift our faces from the ground and remain sitting, praying that He forgive us our sins and bestow His grace upon us, and guide us aright, and give us health and sustenance. Then we again prostrate ourselves on the ground and touch the dust with our foreheads before the might and the glory of the One. After that, we remain sitting and pray that He bless the Prophet Muhammad who brought His message to us, just as He blessed the earlier Prophets; and that He bless us as well, and all those who follow the right guidance ; and we ask Him to give us of the good of this world and of the good of the world to come. In the end we turn our heads to the right and to the left, saying, "Peace and the grace of God be upon you" -and thus greet all who are righteous, wherever they may be.


'It was thus that our Prophet used to pray and taught his followers to pray for all times, so that they might willingly surrender themselves to God -which is what Islam means -and so be at peace with Him and with their own destiny. .


The old man did not, of course, use exactly these words, but this was their meaning. and this is how I remember them. Years later I realized that with his simple explanation the hajji had, opened to me the first door to Islam; but even then, long before any thought that Islam might become my own faith entered my mind, I began to feel an unwonted humility whenever I saw, as I often did, a man standing barefoot on his prayer rug, or on a straw mat, or on the bare earth, with his arms folded over his chest and his head lowered, entirely submerged within himself, oblivious of what was going on around him, whether it was in a mosque or on the sidewalk of a busy street: a man at peace with himself.

<i>- The Road To Mecca</i>

Hey all,


I bet you've all heard this story many times before, but here it goes.


I came to this forum from Wel Me 2, after i told him i was considering converting or reverting as he told me to call it. Right now i'am christian, but i haven't yet abandeded it. The things that brought me to question christianty were the bibles many contradtions and scientific absurtites. On another forum that Wel Me 2 belongs to, their all faithless (odd i know) and they easily attack christianty. When Wel Me 2 came to the forum annocuing he was a muslim, and when we all got in a debate of islam, i attempted to prove the Koran was not correct and could be easily attacked like the bible. But Wel Me 2 easily came up with a logical answer to everything. It was very hard not to be intersted. I did some research, and the scientific facts in the Koran blew me away. Then, i went to some sites comparing the Bible and Koran. There are some scientific facts in the bible that i was as well impersesed with, but the Koran just made more sence. I always thought the 6 day creation story was just a leap of faith, a simple explanation for a simple people back then, but then the Koran had it right on the money. I haven't read it yet, but i will. I havent convertered or reverted, but i would be lying to you all if i say im not considering it. Also, iam not an american, and it might be hard to convert to, well, a non-main stream religon here. Even though i know there are parts in which many muslims are. I have a few questions though,


If i convert, christianty condems me to hell, whereas if i stay a muslim, islam says i can remain in heaven.


And, why would god reveal himself to only one man? Also, i;ve heard the claims that the Koran is perfect, is there a koran from the 6th century that matches the koran of today to prove that? And, would i have to call god allah? In christianty, god's true name is Yaweh, but we do not call our creator that out of respect. Wel Me 2 has told me that Mohammed has performed miracles, but did the angel gabireal show himself to anyone else? Thank you all for helping, well, a very confused and soul-searching person.


Thanks in advance,


Alfredo

Assalamo ALikum.


This thing happened in OMAN. One girl was watching music channel on T.V. While the girl’s mother was, reciting QURAN. The girl said to her mother you disturbed me you go to another place. The mother decided to stay in her place where she was reciting QURAN.





Immediately the girl took the QURAN and throwed it on the ground. Her mother collected the QURAN and put the QURAN on her chest. And immediately the girl fell down on the floor and got converted to the above animal. And now she is available in AL- Sultani Hospital Masqat/OMAN.

the prophet mohmed S.A.w) has said that aAllah most high will say on the day of judgement''where are thosepeople who used to keep goodrelationin the world.


To day there is no shadow except my shadow. iwill keep them under my shadow''(Bukhari)


IN another hadees it is said that'' the strongest link (iman)is'Tohelp for Allahs sake, to love for Allahs sake, to keepenimity for Allahs sake''(Baihaqi).


what is the condition today?every man instead of thinking of others concern


first of all think what about me, how much benifit will i gain?The seed of this evil has gone so deep even for doing evenreligious work the ques of personal interest comes first,&this is one of reasonwhy muslim community has fallen on bad days


prophet mohamed S.A.W,)said that when two men keep good relation with each other for Allahs sakeAllah the most high will honour such aman.(Ahamed)


we must learn from such hadeesthatthe relations should be kept for Allahs sake ¬ for selfish ends.when relation are kept for personal ends they snap quickly.relations of years are breaking for,trifling, insignificient reason.&instead Allahs help,man is opening the doors of misfortunes for himself.he himself creating the causes for being awayfrom Allahs mercy*&for receiving His curses.man lie ,abuse ,creat enimity etc just for the sakeof wordly meterialsfrom which the shadow of Allahs mercy is withdrawn.


Relations must be mainted for Allahs sake and then only u will deserve andreceive compense for it.MAY ALLAH GUIDE US ONTHE RIGHT PATH
