Shari’ah Law recipe of Disaster by so called Ismael Hasan was not worthy of rebuttal.

It is evident apostasy but unfortunately as the well-known statement goes: Apostasy without Abu-Bakr- Riddatun Laa Abaa-Bakara Lahaa (The blessed first caliph who put an end to temporary apostasy spun by heretics and idolaters). One insults the best of all creation Muhammad salallahu alaihi wasallam, another pokes his nose in the grandeur of divine law. Etc. Alas, over the dead body of Waa-mu’tesmaah!.

The matter of the fact is that these Islamophobes are equal or even much less, to talk against the Shari’ah, than the fly which landed on the back of an elephant to reach its destination; on getting off, it said to the elephant: Please keep yourself firm, lest you jerk and fall when I disembark. The elephant replied: I did not notice when and where you landed on me, how come I feel when you leave me. Were you more than a very tiny and trivial fly!.

Carrying same finger-prints and landmark of the apostate Islamophobes, Ismael Hasan spoke of nonsense. I of myself can have no other third explanation to his deplorable and nauseating status than these two:

1. Ignorant of what Shari’ah is and the dangerous consequences of his statements
2. Deliberate attempt of renegade infidel with hidden Islamophobic agenda

What is Shari’ah?

Sharia is the body of Islamic religious law. The term means "way" or "path to the water source"; it is the legal framework within which the public and private aspects of life are regulated for those living in a legal system based on fiqh (Islamic principles of jurisprudence) and for Muslims living outside the domain. Sharia deals with many aspects of day-to-day life, including politics, economics, banking, business, contracts, family, private family life, hygiene, social issues, etc.

Shariah implementation in Muslim world rendered great thinkers like George Bernard Shaw doting over its leader Muhammad: “He must be called the Saviour of Humanity.  I believe that if a man like him were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world, he would succeed in solving its problems in a way that would bring it much needed peace and happiness”.

Thomas Carlyle in his (Heroes and Hero-worship), was simply amazed as to: “How one man single-handedly, could weld warring tribes and wandering Bedouins into a most powerful and civilized nation in less than two decades.”

Lamartine, Histoire de la Turquie, Paris 1854, Vol II, pp. 276-77: “If greatness of purpose, smallness of means, and astounding results are the three criteria of human genius, who could dare to compare any great man in modern history with Muhammad?

W. Montgomery, Mohammad at Mecca, Oxford 1953, p. 52: “His readiness to undergo persecutions for his beliefs, the high moral character of the men who believed in him and looked up to him as leader, and the greatness of his ultimate achievement – all argue his fundamental integrity.  To suppose Muhammad an impostor raises more problems than it solves.  Moreover, none of the great figures of history is so poorly appreciated in the West as Muhammad.”

Whenever we deal with our internal problems, it is always wise to be aware of giving loopholes to these external Islamophobes who camouflage in our identity. The socio-political situation in Somalia is at its peak of turbulence. We supplicate to Allah the Almighty to bring peace and prosperity to it. It is sheer manifestation of the verse:

30:41 Mischief has appeared on land and sea because of (the meed) that the hands of men have earned, that (Allah) may give them a taste of some of their deeds: in order that they may turn back (from Evil).

There are two negative factors dominating the whole scenario:

1. Ignorance
2. External influence

For the first, reckless killings of innocent Muslims and non Muslims have no place in our religion. The sanctity of the Muslim blood and dignity per se is more valuable than the Kaabah. Ibnu Abas radhiyallahu anhu is very adamant in interpreting in Surah Annisaa on the eternal abode of hell fire for the killer of a believer, that there is no repentance for the killer. Imam Tarmidhi reports that the prophet salallahu alaihi wasallam said: “Even if all the creation on earth and in heavens plotted and killed a Muslim, He (Allah) would have thrown them all in hell fire, not caring about them”. A matter so complicated to this extent should be taken extremely serious.

For the other, most of the heinous crimes committed against innocents have either external accomplice or culprit. In Afghanistan, many Taleban look-alike groups were formed, who perpetrated on purpose abominable crimes in front of the camera. As one commentator said, unfortunately these pseudo-Taleban groups forgot to wind their turban as genuine Taleban do. This article in BBC says it all on opium growth under Taleban rule: Under the hardline Islamic government of the Taleban, which ruled from the mid-1990s till deposed by the US-led coalition in late 2001, opium production declined sharply. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/3343279.stm

This is a global phenomenon. When the FIS party in Algeria democratically won the election, the Algerian people rallied behind it. Support for Shairi’ah mounted dramatically nationwide. No sooner was it alarmed as a sign of coming danger (Islamic Shari’ah) than FIS look-alike secret elite commandos started to massacre the public overnight, carried out explosions, accusing FIS party. The public anti-FIS sentiment was set to culminate to its opposite.

I wonder why not similar groups in our country take lesson and precaution from previous events?!. Yet give no chances to these disgraced Islamophobes.

O’ my Lord, bestow peace, prosperity and everlasting blessings to our people.
