The One Who Prefers Secular Law Is A Kafir - Shaykh Salih Al-Fawzan

[Omar del Sur]

very informative talk by Sheikh Fawzan

 

[Ayubi]

Somalia and all other Muslim nations should be ruled by Islamic law, not secularism.


Allah, may He be exalted, has told us in the His Book that legislative authority belongs to Him alone, and that He is the wisest of those who issue rulings and judge. He has forbidden the association of anyone with Him in His authority, and no one is better than Him in ruling.

Allah, may He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):

“So the judgement is only with Allah, the Most High, the Most Great!”

[Ghaafir 40:12]

“The command (or the judgement) is for none but Allah. He has commanded that you worship none but Him (i.e. His Monotheism), that is the (true) straight religion, but most men know not”

[Yoosuf 12:40]

“Is not Allah the Best of judges?”

[at-Teen 95:8]


Allahs Law is better than man made laws therefore we should only judge by what he has revealed in his book and obey his messenger (SAW)

Secular law only brings degeneracy and sin to the general population

The problem is what is the definition of Islamic law?

Your interpretation will be diameteracly opposed to someone else also Muslim also Sunni.

You might package your tribal traditions and a childish understanding of fiqh as Islam and fight to impose it on everyone else.

There is no problem. Islam is perfect.

If someone does something incorrectly, that's a problem with them, not with Islam.

There is no problem with Islam and everything it says should be followed.

«So here is the issue that needs to be clarified:Many people use the abbreviation “SAW,” “SAWS,” or “PBUH” to fulfill this obligation in their writing. Is this something that fulfills the obligation of sending the salaah and salaam on the Messenger? Let us look now to some of the statements of the scholars regarding this practice. The Permanent Committee of Scholars in Saudi Arabia headed by ‘Abdul-‘Azeez ibn ‘Abdillaah ibn Baaz issued the following verdict when asked about the validity of abbreviating the salaah on the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam): “The Sunnah is to write the entire phrase “sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam,” since it is a kind of supplication, and supplication is worship, (in one’s writing) just as it is in one’s speech. So to abbreviate it using the letter SAAD or the word SAAD-LAAM-‘AYN-MEEM is not a supplication nor is it worship, whether it occurs in speech or writing. For this reason, this abbreviation was not used by the the first three generations, those that the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam) testified to their goodness.” [8] “SAAD” and “SAAD-LAAM-‘AYN-MEEM” are often used in some Arabic books. The English equivalents of these abbreviations would be: SAW, SAWS, SAAWS, PBUH, and the likes. Al-Fayrooz-Abaadee said, “It is not appropriate to use symbols or abbreviations to refer to salaah and salaam, as some of the lazy ones do, as well as some ignorant people and even some students of knowledge – they write ‘SAAD-LAAM-‘AYN-MEEM’ instead of writing ‘sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam.'” [9] Ahmad Shaakir said, “It is the absurd tradition of some of the later generations that they abbreviate the writing of ‘sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam.'” [10] Wasee Allaah ‘Abbaas said, “It is not permissible to abbreviate the salaams in general in one’s writing, just as it is not permissible to abbreviate the salaah and salaam on the Prophet (sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam). It is also not permissible to abbreviate either of these in one’s speech.” [11] And Allaah knows best. May the most perfect and complete salaah and salaam be upon our beloved Messenger, and upon his noble family and companions.»

How?

typo should have typed might be instead of will be.


i am referring to understanding of aqeedah and fiqh by ahlu sunna wa al jamaaca.
there has been consensus for centuries, there still is..

the three aqeedahs of ahlu sunna ( dahiri, ashcari, maturidi) and the 4 madhabs( maliki, shafici, hanafi and hanbali)

for centuries various interpretations of the above formed the basis of the beliefs of ahlu sunna wa al jamaaca.

There are allot of tiny and divergent groups( like cults, sects) but they have been too small to make an impact.

but 2 divergent movements one comming from najd were supported by the colonialists in this case the British, and worse the najdi group found themselves sitting on top of a giant lake of oil
and we have today's Salafi/wahabist movement.
they have had a huge impact on the muslim world, even people who have never heard of them
adopted allot of the ideas and behaviour without knowing the source...

even today more than 9/10 of all arabic language publishing houses are either directly owned by the Saudi government or indirectly by individuals close to government, or a controling share of the stock if it is big enough . You think i am joking i dare you to go to an islamic book shop, and randomly pick up lets say 20 books , you will find the ercentage is closer to 100% every single book will most likely be printed by a publishing house that is either based in saudia or owned.
The same with TV stations , sattelite brought competition and the internet exposed everything.
