HOW THE DEVIL SYAITAN DECEIVE MEN AND HOW MEN CAN PROTECT THEMSELVES FROM THE DEVIL SYAITAN

The Syiah thinks only those who has blood relationship with Prophet Muhammad saw should be made the Caliph and not those who do not have the blood relationship with the Prophet Muhammad saw. This is not Islamic and entirely against the principle of Islam in choosing the leader of the Muslims. In Islam leaders are not selected on the basis of blood relationship. In Islam, Allah orders us to choose the best among the Muslims at any particular time to become the leader of Muslims. The best Muslim is the Muslims who have the most fear of Allah. After the death of Prophet Muhammad saw, the person who is the best in taqwa was Hazrat Abu Bakar. Hazrat Abu Bakar on the other hand wanted the Muslims to choose Hazrat Umar to become the first Caliph but Hazrat Umar told to himself that he could never become the leader of Muslims when Hazrat Abu Bakar was still alive. Hazrat Abu Bakar did not want the power and position but Allah made the power and position to come to him. Hazrat Abu Bakar accepted power and position because the power and position was been forced upon him.

The selection of the supreme leader known as Hadratji in Jemaah Tabligh also did not follow the principle of Islam. In Jemaah Tabligh, they choose their Hadratji not according to the principle of Islam but according to blood relationship. Those who have the blood relationship with Maulana Ilyas will have the chance to become Hadratji. Who teaches Jemaah Tabligh to choose their Hadratji according to blood relationship with Maulana Ilyas if it is not the devil syaitan. Muslims must choose their leaders from among the believer if the Muslims do not want to be deceived by the devil syaitan. In Islam the best person from among the believers should become the leader of the Muslims. Lies about Hazrat Abu Bakar and Hazrat Umar were spread by those who themselves wanted to have power and position but they were unable to obtain the power and the position. They become jealous of Hazrat Abu Bakar and Hazrat Umar and they become syaitan. What is the work of syaitan? Syaitan spread lies about Hazrat Abu Bakar and Hazrat Umar that both of these two eminent companions of the Prophet Muhammad saw wanted power and position. Iblis and syaitan lied to the Muslims that Hazrat Abu Bakar and Hazrat Umar were the two persons who were ready and willing to do anything in order to have power and position.

Muslims with weak iman will believe in the lies spread by Iblis and syaitan. Those Muslims with weak iman who believe in the lies spread by the Iblis and syaitan about Hazrat Abu Bakar and Hazrat Umar become the followers of one sect in Islam known as Syiah. Syiah are led by those who love power and position who are under the control of Iblis and syaitan. Iblis and syaitan deceive the Syiah into practicing many Bid’ah in Islam. The Syiah never think and believe that they are practicing Bid’ah. They think they are practicing the order of Allah and the Sunnah of Prophet Muhammad saw. Many Syiah would not know that the Islamic practices which had been practice by their ancestors since hundreds of years ago are an act of Bid’ah. As for example, on the 10^thof Muharram, the Syiah practice what had never been practiced by our Prophet Muhammad saw and the companions and this practice are known as Bid’ah.

Iblis tell the Syiah that they are practicing the order of Allah according to the Sunnah of our Prophet Muhammad saw. Iblis make the Syiah to believe that they are in the correct path so that the Syiah will never make taubah and Istigfar over their wrong deeds. There are many Bid’ah practices which are done by the Syiah Muslims. There are many groups of Syiah and Iblis makes each group of the Syiah to believe that they are in the correct path so that each group will not make taubah and Istigfar over their wrong deeds. Now syaitan is making the Syiah to have war with other Muslims whom the Syiah call as Sunni. Now both the Syiah and the Sunni are planting the sentiment of hatred towards each other. The syaitan want both of them to go to war with each other so that the non-Muslims will know that Islam is a religion that promotes hatred and war even among their followers and with others. Now Muslims in the whole world are known to the non-Muslims as terrorists. In Syria and Pakistan the Syiah is killing the Sunni and the Sunni are killing the Syiah. Similarly in Iraq and many parts of the world there is constantly enmity and friction between the Syiah and the Sunni and both of them are Muslims. According to the non-Muslims both the Syiah and the Sunni are Muslims and they think Islam or the Quran teaches their followers to have war with each other. Syaitan painted the image of terrorist on Muslims so that the non-Muslims will not become Muslims.

At the same time Iblis and syaitan are trying to plant in the hearts of the Muslims the sentiment of hatred towards the non-Muslims particularly the Jews and the American. Iblis makes the Muslims to believe that their enemies are not Iblis but their enemies are the Jews and the non-Muslims. Iblis desire the Muslims to hate the non-Muslims so that the Muslims will not invite the non-Muslims to recite the Great Kalimah and when Muslims hate the non-Muslims, the non-Muslims will not become Muslims. Iblis deceives the Muslims who are not believers into the believe that to make enemies with the Jews and the non-Muslims and to have war with them is an act of worship and to die on the path of hatred and enmity with the Jews and the non-Muslims is to die as a martyr.

We do not like others to criticize us and to be told by others that we are wrong. It is painful to receive criticism. It is even more painful to be told by others that we are following a wrong path. In actual fact it is good to know that we are following the wrong path before we die so that we can rectify, make taubah and repentance as soon as possible. When we are being told by others that we are following the wrong path we must ponder and make some research on the statements. In case we really found out that we are in the wrong path and we should be ready to make taubah and Istigfar. When we are ready to make taubah and istigfar Allah will be pleased with us and Allah will forgives all our sins and Allah will show to us the correct path. In actual fact even when we are in the correct path and we are told by others that we are in the wrong path, and we bear patients on the statements Allah will reward us. In case we are in the correct path and we are ready to make taubah and Istigfar Allah will become more pleased with us. Our intention to make taubah is because it is the order of Allah and to please Allah.

Our intention to make taubah is not with the intention so that Allah accepts our taubah but for Allah to be pleased with us. When Allah is please with us then only Allah will forgive us and accept our taubah. When Allah accepts our taubah Allah will certainly guide us to even a more correct path. What is the problem to most men is they do not want or refuse to admit that they are in the wrong path and thus refuse to make taubah and istigfar. It is a virtue to admit mistakes and to admit that we are in the wrong path and it is a virtue to make taubah and istigfar. Iblis and syaitan are always trying to prevent Muslims from making taubah and istigfar.

All Muslims love Prophet Muhammad saw but there are Muslims who love Prophet Muhammad saw more than others. As a symbol of their ardent love toward the Prophet Muhammad saw they recite selawat abundantly to the Prophet Muhammad saw and they celebrate the birthday of the Prophet Muhammad saw. Although they love Prophet Muhammad saw but they are not willing to do the work which was loved by our Prophet Muhammad saw, the work of inviting the non-Muslims to recite the Great Kalimah and the work of reminding Muslims about the Great Kalimah and to invite Muslims to do the work which fulfils the right of the Great Kalimah. In my opinion this is not the true sign of love towards Prophet Muhammad saw. I think when we love someone we will try to do whatever that person does. How could we love Prophet Muhammad saw when we are not willing to do the work of Prophet Muhammad saw. It is true that Allah has ordered Muslims to read selawat to our Prophet Muhammad saw and Allah also read selawat to our Prophet Muhammad saw. However Allah has never ordered Muslims to celebrate the birthday of the Prophet Muhammad saw. Some Muslims will argue that it is not wrong to celebrate the birthday of our Prophet Muhammad saw and to celebrate the birthdays of our children. In my opinion it is wrong to celebrate the birthday of Prophet Muhammad saw because it is not the order of Allah and it is neither the practice of our Prophet Muhammad saw nor the practice of the companions to celebrate the birthday of our Prophet Muhammad saw and our children.

When Muslims are practicing something which the Prophet Muhammad saw and the companions did not practice, Muslims are practicing Bid’ah. There are some Muslims who are not only celebrating the birthday of Prophet Muhammad saw but they are also celebrating even the birthday of the so call saints in Islam. Is it an Islamic practice to celebrate birthdays? Nowadays even the so call pious persons are celebrating their birthdays and the birthdays of their children. It looks as if it is not a big deal to celebrate birthdays but when we are practicing something which was not practice by our Prophet Muhammad saw and the companions, we are practicing Bid’ah. Prophet Muhammad saw told us to always remember our death and not our birth and to make preparation for our death and not to celebrate our birth. What is the point to remember our birthday and the birthdays of our children? Is there any verse of the Quran and Hadis that orders us to remember and to celebrate our birthdays and the birthdays of our children? When we continue to practice celebrating our birthdays and the birthdays of our children, a time will come in the future when our progenies will regard the practices of celebrating birthdays as practices ordered by Allah and practiced by Prophet Muhammad saw. Celebrating birthdays is not practices which were done by our Prophet Muhammad saw and the companions of Prophet Muhammad saw. In fact celebrating birthdays is the practice of the non-Muslims and the Muslims who are celebrating birthdays are indeed practicing Bid’ah. As mention in almost every khutbah during Friday prayers that whoever practices Bid’ah is practicing evil deeds and whoever practice evil deeds will enter hellfire.

All the practices which are not done by the Prophet Muhammad saw and the companions of Prophet Muhammad saw are Bid’ah. Muslims must forgo Bid’ah practices. Muslims who practices Bid’ah must not only forgo such practices but they should also do taubah and istigfar. Allah orders us to love Prophet Muhammad saw, his families and all his companions. All Muslims should love all of them because it is the order of Allah. Our intention to love all of them is only to please Allah. All Muslims should love or hate someone, because it is the order of Allah and to please Allah. The members of Jemaah Tabligh should love and obey their elders because it is the order of Allah and only to please Allah. They should obey their elders when their elders obey the order of Allah. They should not obey their elders when their elders disobey the orders of Allah. They must not obey their elders blindly. If they obey their elders blindly, it means they have made their elders to be equal to Allah and Prophet Muhammad saw. Only Allah and Prophet Muhammad saw should be obeyed blindly. Muslims should obey neither their Amir nor their leaders nor their parents blindly.

When anyone irrespective of their position told us to obey the orders of Allah, as Muslims we must obey the order and the order must be done in the way shown by Prophet Muhammad saw. Muslims must not obey the orders of their Amir, leader or their parents when the orders are against the order of Allah or when the order is not done according to the way of our Prophet Muhammad saw. This is the basic thing which all Muslims should know and should follow. Why all members in Jemaah Tabligh obey their Amir when their Amir told them to do something which is against the order of Allah? When their Amir told them not to invite the non-Muslims to recite the Great Kalimah because Muslims are not capable to invite the non-Muslims to become Muslims, all the members of Jemaah Tabligh follows their leaders blindly. One of the syurah of Jemaah Tabligh of Malaysia even said to one of the members of Jemaah Tabligh that you will be saved if you follow the elders in Nizammuddin. According to the members of Jemaah Tabligh to follow their elders in Nizammuddin is the same as to follow Allah and Prophet Muhammad saw. However the companions of the Prophet Muhammad saw said something contrary to the member of Jemaah Tabligh; you will be saved if you follow Allah and His Prophet saw.

We should obey the order of Allah as mention in the Quran. We should follow or obey a person who told us to obey the order of Allah as mention in the Quran and Hadis. We should not look at the status of the person who told us about the orders of Allah but we must examine whether the order is really the order of Allah or not. If the orders come from the Quran we must follow, even though the person who told us about the order is only a vision specialist or optometrist like me. It is very clear in the Quran that Allah has ordered Muslims to invite the non-Muslims to Allah as done by our Prophet Muhammad saw. Prophet Muhammad saw invited the non-Muslims to recite the Great Kalimah and all the companions of Prophet Muhammad saw also invited the non-Muslims to recite the Great Kalimah and all the ulama of the past also invited the non-Muslims to recite the Great Kalimah and all the ulama of recent time except the ulama of Jemaah Tabligh agree with me that Muslims must invite the non-Muslims to recite the Great Kalimah. Jemaah Tabligh who claims to follow Prophet Muhammad saw is not inviting the non-Muslims to recite the Great Kalimah because according to them the present Muslims are not capable of doing the work of inviting the non-Muslims to recite the Great Kalimah. This is a great lie to all the Muslims in the whole world because there are many Muslims in this world who are currently as an individual capable of doing the work of inviting the non-Muslims to recite the Great Kalimah.
