Question
The qualifying Ulama, are facing a predicament. The masaajid are being run by modernists and the aalims are feeling uneasy to be under them, as they will have to do as they say even if things are not in accordance with shariah. The same goes for the small madressas or deeni institutes, it's run by mostly modernists or not Ulema-e-Haqq. Those qualifying, don't have the finances to open their own madressas, plus they need to support their wife and children. Someone mentioned that it is not advisable for an aalim to teach as well as open and /or to have a running business. Is this correct? They say their aim is to only teach the deen and not focus on dunya. One should have tawakkul on only Allah Ta'ala and not the business. Please comment.
Answer
The molvis (they are not Ulama) are under the control and domination of the modernists and deviates who run the maktabs and schools, not because they have no finance. They are under the people of the dunya because they (the molvis) are using the deen for acquiring the dunya.
If the molvis inculcate Taqwa and practically implement their knowledge in their daily life, Allah Ta'ala will open up such avenues of Rizq which will make them completely independent. But, due to a total lack of Taqwa they are bartering the Deen for the miserable jeefah (carrion) crumbs of the dunya. They bring disgrace on themselves. Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi
