Fuel of the Zeal

[شــ *الو رد* ـــذى]

The vanguard of man’s defeat is the fall of his well in fear and intimidation that what drags his zeal behind.

However the remedy of that defeat is the Noble Verses and honorable prophetic tradition, understanding and reflecting upon their meaning.



When one is put in a situation to prove his courage, the light of certainty rises up in the darkness of whispers.



When the Muslims were getting ready to confront the trinity worshipers on the battle field, their brothers gave them the farewell saying “May Allah accompany you & protect you and bring you back to us as righteous”.



Abdullah Bin Rawaha said in a poem that he longs for a strike of a spear that penetrates his abdomen or a strap that finishes his life hoping for a reward of forgiveness so that when they pass by his grave may Allah forgive him of a worrier!!



O Allah, … take from our blood for your sake until you are pleased

O Allah, ….make our sayings and actions sincere to you and set strait our affairs, Make your pleasure to be our ultimate goal

O Allah, …. use us to support your religion, your book and your prophet’s tradition.





The Nation is in need for a motivation



All praise be to Allah alone and peace & blessings be upon his last messenger and prophet.



The Nation is in need for a motivation, every member of our Nation; young or old, male or female, healthy or ill, ... every one needs that motivation.

Work is incumbent on every one, no one is being exempted, and that is the work which encompasses all energies according to what Allah loves.



For example, in the migration of the prophet (May the best peace and blessing be upon him) along with his companion and deputy … a young female was preparing their journey provision, a shepherd was covering up their footsteps, and a young boy was collecting the intelligence for them.



Another example; on the day of the Trench Battle, Ali was striking the head of any one dares to penetrate their rows, Jaber’s wife was fixing the food, Ibn Alzubair’s little son was monitoring the scene on top of the fence, Safeiya finishes up any one sneaks to their camp, a Persian was engineering the battle and the blind man Ibn Um Maktoom was running the affairs of Al-Madeenah. All of them recognized the fact that working to support the religion will continue until the Day of Judgment.



The origin of the motivation comes from realizing the calamity and rushing to rising up to make a way out.



And indeed Allah doesn’t change the condition of a people until they change it themselves.

O Allah, …. use us to support your religion, your book and your prophet’s tradition.





For the strength of our Nation



All praise be to Allah alone and peace & blessings be upon his last messenger and prophet.



The Muslim Nation roars if the truth is being violated, it becomes a hurricane.

Allah says: “Don’t you dispute among yourselves lest that you fail and lose your strength”, one hand doesn’t clap.



During hardships we need to be united, the hearts & efforts should be lined up together.



Also we need to be careful while using the words of dispute to be in line with the right rules and etiquettes of disagreement.



We need to hold strong and fast to the rope of Allah, to be united for the Truth, we are brothers, so why our voices get louder while our brotherhood decline?



And what our souls desire is not worth of our dispute and fight.



Elevation over accusing one another



We shouldn’t split our unity by accusing each other.

We shouldn’t reject others’ opinions just because they have done the same to us, we have to give up on ( I ) the singular and ( WE ) the prejudice, we should be aware of the poisoned spears directed to our brotherhood, and we should close all the doors of suspicion.

A poet says:

And an evil talks that my ear didn’t hear while there is no deafness with it



We were given glad tidings of highness, support and authority on earth.

Our brothers on the path, no matter how long it takes affliction will be relieved, so remain steadfast and affirm others, light up lamps for those who are lost and kindle zeal in the souls. Raise up your youth rightly for victory and authority on earth; and flee to Allah since, indeed, He is the Best Protector and the Best supporter.





Our life ones …. Our dead ones



All praise be to Allah alone and peace & blessings be upon his last messenger and prophet.



Our life ones are the best of those who step on earth.

Our dead ones are the best of the dwellers of the graves.



O’ Servants of Allah … Remain steadfast as your prophet (May the best peace and blessing be upon him) cried out on his followers on the day of Uhud and Hunayn battles.

Haven’t we learned that fire smith continues to expose the gold to fine until it gains its shine and brilliance?



During situations of the truth, the true men will become lions, the remembrance of the Most Merciful echoes in their hearts with certainty.



“And when the believers have seen the allied against them they said: this is what Allah and His Messenger have promised us. Allah and His Messenger have spoken the truth and it (that situation) increased them nothing but faith and submission”



When the evil gang of disbelief plotted to assassinate the leader of the prophets and the Last Messenger (May the best peace and blessing be upon him) , While the Prophet (May the best peace and blessing be upon him) being chased on top of the mountain, he said to his companion: “don’t you be sad, Allah is with us. What do you think of two people Allah is their third?”

The trial of Fatwa … Imam Ahmad was tried concerning his famous fatwa of (The creation of the Quraan) when a Bedouin met him and said to him supporting him: “O Ahmad, if you die you die as a martyr and if you live you live praiseworthy” . A Bedouin with a camel lace hanging around his neck strengthens the belief of the Imam, a weak, poor unknown person can do that !! Glory be to Allah.



O Allah, …. use us to support your religion, your book and your prophet’s tradition.





Those who see Allah by their hearts



All praise be to Allah alone and peace & blessings be upon his last messenger and prophet.



Those who see Allah by their hearts keep in their mind that above the difficulty of the trial there are two eases. They struggle against Satan and work hard to strengthen the roots of brotherhood by treating the double standards in their hearts.



O’ our loved brothers of faith, … in the trench of the plain Truth as much faith you have you will be able to resist falsehood, as much goodness you have you will gain the support of the creator, as much certainty you have you will be given the victory of your Lord.



The easiest and the nearest way to be in your Lord’s company is to inter into Prayer, as our beloved prophet (May the best peace and blessing be upon him) used to do when he seeks the guidance of the All-Mighty Allah.

Finally, I would love to mention that the forgiveness and tolerance are the keys for solidarity and unity that enables our Muslim Nation to stand strong as one body against all challenges.
