Many Ulama and the people of the Tabligh Jamaat place much emphasis on hikmah.

Question

Many Ulama and the people of the Tabligh Jamaat place much emphasis on hikmah. What is this 'hikmah', and how should it be observed?

Answer

The molvis and the Tabligh Jamaat people have a peculiar, incongruent conception of 'hikmah'. Whilst the meaning of hikmah is wisdom, in the conception of the molvis and Jamaatis, it means to compromise the Haqq. Concealing the Haqq of the Shariah, misinterpreting masaa-il to appease people, even abandoning ahkaam of the Shariah and general bootlicking the people of baatil are the ingredients of their concept of 'hikmah'

Their 'wisdom' is dubious haraam diplomacy – bootlicking diplomacy which compromises the Haqq of Allah Ta'ala. Compromising any aspect of the Deen only leads to a greater drift away from the Deen. This type of 'hikmah' is a ploy of shaitaan. Shaitaan has entangled in his tentacles innumerable molvis and sheikhs with his 'hikmah' trap.
