and Comment

How can the commission of shirk ever be permissible?

The haraam bootlicking by Muslims of India, including the Ulama, is the effect of gross Imaani deficiency. Abject fear for the Hindus has constrained Muslims to act like Hindus. Their extremely defective Imaani state has made halaal for them even acts of shirk and kufr.

Obviously, displaying the Hindu flag of shirk and kufr is a major sin. But fear has compelled Muslims, including the Ulama, to submit to the evil demands of the ruling Hindu cow and idol worshippers. While they justify their submission to kufr and shirk on the basis of their fear for Hindu oppression and brutality, they remain oblivious of the cause of their Imaani deficiency and the fear which has overwhelmed them. They fear the Hindus more than fear for Allah Ta'ala. In fact, their fear for Allah Ta'ala is practically non-existent.

The inordinate fear they have for the mushrikeen is actually a punishment of Allah Ta'ala for the treachery of Muslims. In this regard, Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said:

"Allah will most certainly eliminate fear for you from the hearts of your enemy and He will instil wahan in your hearts."

The kuffaar will dominate and devour the Ummah. It was in this context that Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) had made this statement. A Sahaabi queried: "O Rasulullah! Will it be on account of our small number on that day?' Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) responded: "On the contrary, you will be numerous, but you will be ghutha (rubbish) such as the rubbish of floodwaters."

The wahan mentioned refers to 'love of the world and aversion for Maut'. It is this love for wahan that has made Muslims bootlickers of the kuffaar. Their focus is totally diverted from Allah Ta'ala. They believe that their honour and safety are ensconced in bootlicking the Hindu mushrikeen and the western kuffaar – the Yahood and Nasaara. That is why they honour the Hindu flag of shirk. They are like the Munaafiqeen who search for honour and protection from the kuffaar.

"Give the tidings (warning) to the Munaafiqeen that for them, most certainly is a painful punishment. They are those who take the kuffaar as friends besides the Mu'mineen.

Do they search for izzat (honour) from them (the kuffaar)?

(Let them know) that all Izzat belongs to only Allah."

(An-Nisaa', Aayat 138, 139)

The day Muslims understand that only Allah Ta'ala is their Succour, Helper and Protector, they will then submit to His Deen. Then all fear for the shadows will disappear like mirages. However, currently the Muslim bootlickers do not have the haziest idea of the meaning of the Nusrat (Help) of Allah Ta'ala. Thus, they come within the purview of the Qur'aanic Aayat:

"You will see those in whose hearts there is a disease (i.e. the disease of kufr and nifaaq), racing into them (i.e. bootlicking them).

(Then they justify their bootlicking), saying: 'We fear a calamity May befall us (if we do not bootlick the Hindus, Yahood and Nasaara)."

(Al-Maaidah, Aayat 52)

This is precisely the thinking of the molvis of Jamiatul Ulama Hind and the molvis of the Darul Ulooms, hence they fear a calamity from the Hindu mushrikeen if they do not bootlick them by honouring their flags of shirk. The only way of eliminating this inordinate fear for the mushrikeen and kuffaar is to revert to the original Sunnah of the Sahaabah.

Then Allah Ta'ala will instil such vibrant and powerful Roohaaniyat in their hearts, which will classify them to come within the scope of the Aayat: "They do not fear the reproach of those who insult (and threaten)."

(Al-Maaidah, Aayat 54)
