Islamic prophet warned of ISIS terrorists and Muslim extremism

From Saudi Arabia taking military action in Yemen to the Islamic State terror group killing people en masse in Iraq and Syria, these current developments of Muslims fighting other Muslims should be seen as a shame, but not a surprise. Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, warned 1,400 years ago that murder would become very common all over the Earth and that Muslims in Iraq would learn the Qur’an and then stray far from Islamic teachings.

The global chaos that is ravaging the Middle East and threatening the lands of America, Europe and Australia is something that the Prophet of Islam had guaranteed would happen. While his statements indicate that Muslims, Christians, Jews and people of other religious traditions would play a role in the escalation of violence, the Prophet of Islam had made clearly worded remarks that Muslims would definitely be at the forefront. the mess we see. today.

As human beings, we don’t know what’s inside another person’s heart, but we do know evil when we see it, because we’ve been blessed with the innate ability to discern right from wrong.

The violence that we see in the world, the widespread murder, all of this is a serious transgression that nobody likes but that nobody can stop. Violence begets more violence, and fighting feeds mistrust. Everyone claims to be on the so-called Straight Path, but most people clearly do not take the truth into account when making general judgments about others. As such, injustice flourishes and people become more filled with hate and rage.

From the Islamic perspective, Iraq was destined to become a problem, as evidenced by the following authentic hadith narration of the first devout Muslims who lived alongside the Prophet of Islam:

Leaving Islam does not necessarily mean that a Muslim adopts another religion or becomes an atheist. A Muslim can leave Islam simply by committing acts of evil, such as murder, rape, and robbery. Allah in the Qur’an advises Muslims not to die except in the state of Islam, which means that Muslims should always behave as doers of good. We don’t know when or where we will die, but we know that death is inevitable, so when death calls us, we would be wise to be upright human beings when that time comes.

Allah is the Arabic word for God, and Muslims believe in an eternal life in the afterlife in which Allah will judge people based on the good and bad deeds they have done from the cradle to the grave. In an authentic statement, Prophet Muhammad, upon him be peace and blessings, had said that the first person to be thrown into the Hellfire will be a jihadist Muslim who died on the battlefield.

That Muslim will claim that he died as a martyr in a jihadist mission for the sake of Allah. Allah will call that Muslim a liar and tell him that he only fought in the name of Allah so that people would call him a brave man. Indeed, when that jihadist Muslim died, his allies had boasted that their comrade was a brave man who died for the cause of Allah.

The fighters of the terrorist group Islamic State, ISIS, ISIL have declared a jihad, thinking that it will guarantee them Paradise. The truth of the matter is that these fighters are on shaky ground, and I’m afraid they are running straight into Hellfire faster than a bull charging at a matador waving a red cape.

In Islam, Muslims are required to express appreciation for the Prophet Muhammad, so we ask Allah to honor him and grant him peace. Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, had many enemies in his life who harassed him and insulted him with the worst kind of insults imaginable. The Prophet of Islam had practiced patience and had finally forgiven his enemies once he became embroiled in an armed conflict that ended with the conquest of Mecca.

Fast forward 1,400 years later, and we see a faction of modern Muslims throw patience out the window and immediately resort to unwarranted tactics involving killing and maiming when people mock the Prophet of Islam in the 21st century.

The problem is not Islam. Islam is the religion of patience and good conduct. The problem is that there are Muslims who do things that go against the Koran, the holy book of Islam, and against the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him. In terms of the broader issues in the Middle East related to the Muslim-fuelled bloodshed there, the Prophet of Islam had said that some of the people in his ummah The Muslim community would kill each other or imprison themselves in large numbers.

Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, said the following revealing statement:

Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, did not call himself a sunni Prayed shia; he called himself a Muslim. The Sunni and Shia paths have different interpretations of how the religion of Islam is best practiced, but nonetheless, they are all Muslim. Part of the current problem is that some Muslims dress up as extremism and throw around big words like avoid Y kufr while declaring themselves the only true Muslims in the world and accusing everyone else of being hypocrites or disbelievers.

No one, especially Muslims, should be surprised by the world we live in today, in which the tradition of killing Cain has become a common practice throughout the world. None of it makes sense anymore, and even that is a sign that human civilization in general is becoming more uncivilized as time goes on. Monitoring hadith The narrative, which is well accepted by Muslims, puts it all in perspective:

Some of the barbarity we see in the form of beheadings is shocking indeed, but a simple look at Islam’s sources of truth reveals that no one should be surprised that these heinous acts are taking place in our lifetimes.

May the Lord of the Worlds protect us from this savagery that hangs over us. Amen.
