Question
I received some junk mail (flier-leaflet) in my mail box regarding an Alim Class opening up after Ramadhaan for Brothers and Sisters in U.K. Upon reading it an alarm bell started ringing in my head and I wanted to verify if my concern is true and not paranoia. One of their goals state the following: "Knowledge in comparative religion so dawah can be given with wisdom and light" I am stupid so I had to find out what COMPARATIVE Religion was and this is the answer I got: "The study of different religions and how they relate to each other is called comparative religion. It examines similarities, differences and the way in which different religions interact and complement each other. Comparative religion plays an important role in modern discourse because various religious groups have found themselves coming into closer contact with one another on both personal and social levels". My concerns and questions are: Why would a course teaching the sacred Darse-e Nizaami syllabus want to teach the falsehood of other Religions ??? Why would any Muslim want shaitaan to penetrate their mind with in depth knowledge of false isms?
Answer
The comparative religion study course is a trap of shaitaan. It makes Muslims amenable to kufr acceptance. Shaitaan has many ploys and many human agents. This comparative religion course is one of his traps to desensitize Muslims regarding kufr. It is part of the kufr interfaith plot which operates on a variety of fronts to ensnare ignorant and unwary Muslims into the tentacles of kufr. The direct effect of such interfaith plots is that Muslims, without realising the creeping cancer of kufr, begin to tolerate kufr, putting it on par with Islam.
This is the era in close proximity to Qiyaamah. It is the era of kufr ascendency. Innumerable born Muslims while believing that they are still 'Muslim' are in reality kaafir as a result of their amenability towards the kufr of the kuffaar with whom they associate and frolic.
