The one who will go to Paradise is a man who knows what is right and gives judgment accordingly; but a man who knows what is right and acts tyrannically in his judgment will go to Hell; and a man who gives judgment for people when he is ignorant will go to Hell.

Zohran Mamdani's victory in New York City Mayoral Election



     Zohran Mamdani contested well in the New York Mayoral Election and won for which he should be appreciated. Although Mamdani's victory is better than any Zionist winning the election but it still doesn't mean that Zohran's victory is the victory of Islam. Before this Sadiq Khan became Mayor of London and many other Muslims won in various elections across the US and Europe so did their victory bring anything beneficial to Muslims? Those Muslims who are happy with Mamdani's victory in this election should not be over excited as this is only Zohran's victory for which he should be appreciated but this is not the victory of Islam. Mamdani does have a Muslim background but he is not different than any other typical secular Muslim living in the West who obeys the rules made by the West. He supports the LGBTQ movement and is a socialist. Yes many of the far right white supremacists in the US are worried about his victory just because he happens to be a Muslim. The White Supremacists in Europe and the US hate Islam and Muslims. No matter how much Muslims become like the Europeans or abide by their rules they will still continue to hate Islam so this is the reason that they don't like Zohran Mamdani winning the election. It still remains to be seen what would Zohran do in New York. Although Mamdani is not even a practicing Muslim but one thing that is for sure is that if he fails to deliver or if some catastrophe breaks out in New York the entire Western Media and politicians from Europe and the US will blame Islam for his failure. I pray for his success because I don't want Islam and innocent Muslims working and living in the West to be blamed for his failure. Muslims should neither be too happy on his victory nor they should be too sad.

Ahmad Al Sharaa's visit to the US


   Syrian President Ahmad Al Sharaa visited the US last week and met with the US President Donald Trump. Many of Ahmad Al Sharaa's fans on social media are happy for this even though I don't see anything in this that we as Muslims should be happy about and many of the Pro Assad regime are now creating a narrative on Social Media saying that Al Sharaa was just an American 'plot' to get rid of the Al Assad regime as if the Al Assad regime were innocent angels who loved the Syrian people. In my opinion only time will decide whether Al Sharaa is a hero or a villain but even if he turns out to be a villain that won't change the fact that Bashar al Assad was a tyrant who had killed millions of innocent Syrians just to retain his grip on Syria. The only thing in Al Sharaa's visit for which we should be happy is that our Syrian brothers have got some relief from the US sanctions that had chocked Syrians. I hope that this visit is beneficial for Syria and that the US doesn't take anything in exchange from Syria that will compromise their freedom for which they fought against the Al Assad regime. It is still quite amazing that Al Sharaa a couple of years ago was designated a terrorist by the US and its allies but now the US has forgotten all that past and is willing to work with the new Syrian regime. It just shows the hypocrisy of the West and Russia as well because the Russians are also willing to work with Al Sharaa even though both of them fought Al Sharaa for almost a decade. The US wants the new Syrian regime to be on their side so that they can use Syria against Russia and China and Russia wants to the same and this is the reason that Russia also hosted Ahmad Al Sharaa in Moscow couple of weeks ago. Now it is up to Ahmad Al Sharaa to use this situation where all the world powers want Syria to be in their camp to leverage his position for the benefit of Syrians and the entire Muslim Ummah. Ahmad Al Sharaa should also learn from the mistakes of other Muslim rulers who did everything what the US wanted them to do but that still did not stop the US from conspiring and over throwing them. Ahmad Al Sharaa should not go so far in pleasing world powers that their reaches a stage where it becomes difficult for him to oppose them in those policies which are against the interest of Syria and the interest of the Ummah. Alongside this I still think that if the Syrian regime can reconcile with Russia and the US than they should also reconcile with Iran. All of these three countries were involved in massacring innocent Syrians so if the current Syrian regime can reconcile with Russia and the US than why not with Iran? Iran should also realize that it was a mistake to support Bashar al Assad and should apologize to the Syrian people. If Iran doesn't apologize to the people of Syria then what would they do when they would be held accountable in front of Allah at the Day of Judgment? Allah does not leave the Supplication of the oppressed unanswered so Iran should fear the time when Allah answers the supplications of those who were oppressed by them in Syria and then the Iranians would have to face the wrath of Allah in this life and in the life hereafter. They should pay reparations and should help Syria rebuild. Iran should not have a problem in doing all this because it also didn't have any problem in supporting the oppression of the Al Assad regime during the Syrian Civil war. Syrians should also forgive Iran and prove that they are much better than the Iranians. Syrians should not hesitate in reconciling with Iran because seemingly they didn't hesitate in reconciling with Russia and the US. Syrians should act upon the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad SAW when he forgave all his enemies at the time of the conquest of Makkah. Iran and Syria should burry the sectarian and ideological differences that they have with each other. Syria and Iran should realize that if they don't reconcile and keep on fighting than it will only benefit Israel which is an enemy of both Iran and Syria. Muslim nations like Türkiye and Qatar can play a crucial role in rebuilding ties between Iran and Syria. O Allah eradicate the malice and the sectarian differences present within the Ummah that stop the Ummah from uniting and strengthening against the enemies of Islam. O Allah grant patience to our Muslim brothers who are being oppressed around the world. O Allah grant strength and steadfastness to those who are resisting oppression in Kashmir, Sudan, Palestine, Yemen, East Turkistan and elsewhere.

Politics, Islam and Justice

    In this article, I have written about the relationship between Politics, Islam and Justice.

     Islam is the religion selected by Allah Almighty for the betterment of mankind. Islam means to submit yourself to the will of Allah Almighty. Islam doesn't only mean to Pray Salah, Fast in the month of Ramada , Perform Hajj, Give Zakat and carry out certain religious rituals. Along with all these rituals Islam also has a complete Political system for the betterment of mankind. Allah sent about Hundred and Twenty-four Thousand Prophets on earth for the guidance of Mankind. The lives of all these Prophets and their rightly guided companions serve as a model for all mankind to follow but the Quran and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad SAW are the best examples among all these Prophets for us to follow as Allah completed. Every Prophet came to guide mankind to the right path and to tell them there is only one God i.e. Allah Almighty. He is the creator and no one is his partner and only he is the one worthy to be worshipped. Here the question arises is this all for which Allah sent his Messengers for? 

   The point on which I am trying to emphasize here is that Allah does not need our prayers. He does not need our Zakat or Fasting. Allah did not send each of His Messengers to any particular nation just to introduce them to Allah but a very important reason for Allah send all his Messengers was to eradicate the evil that was found in their nations. For example, Prophet Noah, Prophet Lut, Prophet Moses and Prophet Isa (Jesus Christ) and rest of the Prophets to their particular nations not only to worship Allah but also to eradicate the evils found in the world at that time.

"And We certainly sent into every nation a messenger, [saying], "Worship Allāh and avoid ṭāghūt." And among them were those whom Allāh guided, and among them were those upon whom error was [deservedly] decreed. So proceed [i.e., travel] through the earth and observe how was the end of the deniers."[Quran 16:36]

  Unlike the typical meaning of Politics where politicians use every tactic to win and crush their opponents and they think only of their own self interests. They do not think of others and forget the distinction between right and wrong to achieve their personal goals. They are power-hungry and have no defined set of rules or morality to do  Politics. Islam does not accept such dirty politics. Rather, in Islam, this kind of politics and political system is called pharaohism. Allah says in the Quran:

"The hypocrites, be they men or women, are all alike. They enjoin what is evil, and forbid what is good, and withhold their hands from doing good. They forgot Allah, so Allah also forgot them. Surely the hypocrites are wicked."[Quran,9:67]


    The Politics of all the Prophets sent by Allah Almighty was against any tyrant that was present at that time. For example Prophet Moses resisted against Pharaoh, Prophet Daud (David) fought against Jalut etc. They all did Politics against tyranny to help the poor, the needy and the oppressed. They did this to establish Justice on Earth and to guide their nations to the right path. This is the reason that in Islam Politics is a Sunnah because to raise your voice against tyranny is what Prophet Muhammad PBUH and all other Prophets did. 

   This is what the companions of Prophet Muhammad SAW did and this is what the four rightly guided caliphs Abu Bakr, Umar, Usman, Ali did. Imam Hussein also did this when he embraced martyrdom while fighting the tyranny of Yazid. These are the teachings and basic principles of Islam. Islam does not allow the oppressor to oppress and the oppressed to be an oppressor. He should fight against the oppressor for his rights and for the rights of others in the same manner Imam Hussein did against the oppression of Yazid. If you see oppression and injustice happening around you and do nothing to stop it. Then you are disobeying the teachings of Islam. In the following verses of Surah-al-Shura of the Holy Quran Allah says:

"Whatever ˹pleasure˺ you have been given is ˹no more than a fleeting˺ enjoyment of this worldly life. But what is with Allah is far better and more lasting for those who believe and put their trust in their Lord;"[42:36]

"who avoid major sins and shameful deeds, and forgive when angered;"[42:37]

"who respond to their Lord, establish prayer, conduct their affairs by mutual consultation, and donate from what We have provided for them;"[42:38]

"and who enforce justice when wronged."[42:39]

     The above mentioned verses of the Holy Quran prove that establishing justice is as important as praying Salah. If their is oppression and injustice taking place and you sit back doing nothing in this situation to help the oppressed then in a way you are also taking part in this oppression. Allah says in the Quran:

"And what is [the matter] with you that you fight not in the cause of Allāh and [for] the oppressed among men, women, and children who say, "Our Lord, take us out of this city of oppressive people and appoint for us from Yourself a protector and appoint for us from Yourself a helper"?"[ Quran 4:75]

   A true Muslim is not the one who is  neutral. He is the one who always stands for truth no matter how bad the situation gets. This is what politics in Islam is. Allah says in the Quran:

“O you who have believed, be persistently standing firm in justice, witnesses for Allah, even if it be against yourselves or parents and relatives. Whether one is rich or poor, Allah is more worthy of both.” [Quran, 4:135]

Prophet Muhammad SAW said:

“Whosoever of you sees an evil, let him change it with his hand; and if he is not able to do so, then [let him change it] with his tongue; and if he is not able to do so, then with his heart — and that is the weakest of faith.” [Muslim Hadith 34, 40 Hadith an-Nawawi]

In another Hadith, he said:

Allah’s Apostle SAW said, “Help your brother, whether he is an oppressor or he is an oppressed one. People asked, “O Allah’s Apostle! It is all right to help him if he is oppressed, but how should we help him if he is an oppressor?” The Prophet SAW said, “By preventing him from oppressing others.” 

[Bukhari]

    In Islam Politics does not mean to only fight for yourself or be selfish. It doesn't mean to fight only to get power. This is what typical Politicians do. They are selfish and only do what suits their interests and do not think of others. In Islam, Politics is to put yourself to the service of mankind. Allah says in the Quran:

"You are the best community ever raised for the good of mankind—you encourage good, forbid evil, and believe in Allah. Had the People of the Book believed, it would have been better for them. Some of them are faithful, but most are rebellious." [Quran 3:110]

Allah says in the Surah An-Nahl:

Indeed, Allah commands justice, grace, as well as generosity to close relatives. He forbids indecency, wickedness, and aggression. He instructs you so perhaps you will be mindful. [Quran 16:90]

  If you fight against injustice and cruelty then this is the true meaning of Politics in Islam. Fighting for the rights of others and your rights is what Islam teaches us. Helping others and Putting yourself in the service of humanity is what Islam teaches us. As Muslims, we must stand up against any injustice that is happening in front of us or in any other part of the world. It is our duty to serve mankind. Then you would be counted among those people who Allah loves the most because Allah loves those who are best to others and establish Justice.
