    In this article I have written about Hadith Regarding Enjoining Good Manners, Hadith Regarding Virtues of Friday, Two Hadith Regarding Virtues of Jihad, Sahih Hadith Regarding Honouring guests, Hadith Regarding the one who has tasted sweetness of Faith, Hadith Regarding Reciting Shahada after Wudu(Ablution), Sahih Hadith Regarding Supplication during Prostration. In addition to this I have written about Qatar's former Emir Hamad bin Khalifah Al-Thani's death, Iranian Supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei's funeral, Hamas's decision to end their government in Gaza, NATO summit in Türkiye and America's recent attacks on Iran.

Hadith Regarding Enjoining Good Manners

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

Verily, Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, would say on the Day of Resurrection: O son of Adam, I was sick but you did not visit Me. He would say: O my Lord; how could I visit Thee whereas Thou art the Lord of the worlds? Thereupon He would say: Didn't you know that such and such servant of Mine was sick but you did not visit him and were you not aware of this that if you had visited him, you would have found Me by him? O son of Adam, I asked food from you but you did not feed Me. He would say: My Lord, how could I feed Thee whereas Thou art the Lord of the worlds? He said: Didn't you know that such and such servant of Mine asked food from you but you did not feed him, and were you not aware that if you had fed him you would have found him by My side? (The Lord would again say: ) O son of Adam, I asked drink from you but you did not provide Me. He would say: My Lord, how could I provide Thee whereas Thou art the Lord of the worlds? Thereupon He would say: Such and such of servant of Mine asked you for a drink but you did not provide him, and had you provided him drink you would have found him near Me. [Sahih Muslim 2569]

Hadith Regarding Virtues of Friday 

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) (p.b.u.h) talked about Friday and said, "There is an hour (opportune time) on Friday and if a Muslim gets it while praying and asks something from Allah, then Allah will definitely meet his demand." And he (the Prophet) pointed out the shortness of that time with his hands. [Sahih al-Bukhari 935]

Two Hadith Regarding Virtues of Jihad

Usman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "One day of Jihad is better than a thousand days without Jihad, so every person should reflect upon himself." [Mustadrak Al-Hakim 2381]

** This Hadith is Sahih (authentic) according to the criteria of Imam Muslim (may Allah have mercy on him), but it is not narrated in Sahih Sittah. 

Imran bin Husain (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "A man's standing in the ranks of Jihad is better than sixty years of worship." [Mustadrak Al-Hakim 2383]

** This Hadith is Sahih (authentic) according to the criteria of Imam Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) but it is not narrated in Sahihain (Bukhari and Muslim).

Sahih Hadith Regarding Honouring guests

Abu Shuraih al-Ka’bi reported the Messenger of Allah(ﷺ) as sayings:

He who believes in Allah and the Last Day should honour his guest provisions for the road are what will serve for a day and night: hospitality extends for three days; what goes after that is sadaqah(charity): and it is not allowable that a guest should stay till he makes himself an encumbrance.

Abu Dawud said: Malik was asked about the saying of the Prophet: "Provisions for the road what will serve for a day a night." He said: He should honor him, present him some gift, and protect him for a day and night, and hospitality for three days.. [Sunan Abu Dawood 3748]

Hadith Regarding the one who has tasted the sweetness of Faith

Narrated Anas:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Whoever possesses the following three qualities will taste the sweetness of faith:

1. The one to whom Allah and His Apostle become dearer than anything else.

2. Who loves a person and he loves him only for Allah's sake.

3. Who hates to revert to disbelief (Atheism) after Allah has brought (saved) him out from it, as he hates to be thrown in fire." [Sahih al-Bukhari 21]

Hadith Regarding Reciting Shahada after Wudu(Ablution)

'Uqba b. 'Amir reported:

We were entrusted with the task of tending the camels. On my turn when I came back in the evening after grazing them in the pastures, I found Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) stand and address the people. I heard these words of his: If any Muslim performs ablution well, then stands and prays two rak'ahs setting about them with his heart as well as his face, Paradise would be guaranteed to him. I said: What a fine thing is this! And a narrator who was before me said: The first was better than even this. When I cast a glance, I saw that it was 'Umar who said: I see that you have just come and observed: If anyone amongst you performs the ablution, and then completes the ablution well and then says: I testify that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is the servant of Allah and His Messenger, the eight gates of Paradise would be opened for him and he may enter by whichever of them he wishes. [Sahih Muslim 234a]

Sahih Hadith Regarding Supplication during Prostration

It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbas said:

"The Prophet (ﷺ) drew back the curtain when the people were in rows behind Abu Bakr, may Allah be pleased with him, and said: 'O people, there is nothing left of the features of Prophethood except a good dream that a Muslim sees or is seen by others for him.' Then he said: 'Verily, I have been forbidden from reciting the Qur'an when bowing or prostrating. As for bowing, glorify the Lord therein, and as for prostration, strive hard in supplication for it is more deserving of a response.'" [Sunan An-Nasai 1045]

Political Situation of the Ummah

In this part of my article I would discuss about Qatar's former Emir Hamad bin Khalifah Al-Thani's death, Iranian Supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei's funeral, Hamas's decision to end their government in Gaza, NATO summit in Türkiye and America's recent attacks on Iran.

Qatar's former Emir Hamad bin Khalifah Al-Thani's death

   The first thing I would discuss is the Qatar's former Emir Hamad bin Khalifah Al-Thani's death. On 12th of July Qatar's former Emir Hamad bin Khalifah Al-Thani passed away at the age of 74. He led the country from 1995 till 2013 when he handed power to his son Tamim bin Khalifah Al-Thani who has been the Emir of Qatar ever since. He oversaw rapid economic development in Qatar which was largely backed by his investments in developing Qatar's LNG reserves. This transformed Qatar into a key LNG supplier of the world and a very wealthy nation. Hamad bin Khalifah and his successor Tamim bin Khalifah Al-Thani have used Qatar's wealth to do perform actions which have been quite beneficial to the Ummah like supporting Hamas financially for which they must be appreciated. However both of them have also performed which have caused a lot of damage to the Ummah like housing American military bases in their own country. I pray to Allah to forgive Hamad bin Khalifah Al-Thani's sins and grant him a high status in paradise. I also pray to Allah that his successor Tamim bin Khalifah Al-Thani who is the current Emir of Qatar to not repeat his father's mistakes and I also pray that he will be a better leader than his father.

Iranian Supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei's funeral

‎   The second thing I would discuss is the Iranian Supreme leader Ayatollah Khamenei's funeral. A couple of days ago Ayatollah Khamenei's funeral took place. Delegations from more than 100 countries also attended the funeral which includes neighbouring countries such as Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Türkiye, Russia and China etc. The leadership of liberation organizations such as Hamas, Palestine Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah and the Houthis of Yemen also attended the funeral. Indeed this was one of the greatest funerals of this era not just of modern Muslim history but the world history as well. According to Iranian officials approximately 9 million people attended the funeral. Khamenei's funeral was a testament that how loved he was among the Iranian public which proved America and Israel's claims of the Iranian public hating Khamenei or the Iranian regime to be wrong. The presence of delegations from more than a 100 countries at Khamenei's funeral proved that he was a great political leader who has left an impact on world politics and that his legacy will be hard to remove. I pray to Allah to forgive Khamenei's sins and also pray that the next Iranian Supreme leader will be better that and he will not commit the same mistakes that were committed by Ayatollah Khamenei.

Hamas's decision to end their government in Gaza

   The third topic that I would discuss in this article is the decision of Hamas to dissolve its government in Gaza. According to latest reports a Palestinian technocratic governing authority will govern Gaza from now on. This is an indication that Hamas is abiding by the peace deal brokered in Gaza earlier this year. Eventhough many Western countries label Hamas as a terrorist organization but it is abiding by the peace deal whereas Israel still continues to violate this peace deal by killing innocent civilians in Gaza. I have said in my previous articles and I will say it again that Israel has a habit of breaking or violating peace deals that it signs. It has also violated its peace deal with Lebanon multiple times by conducting air strikes in resulting in deaths of countless innocent civilians. As Israel doesn't care about any so called International law so it is a must for Israel to violate the peace deal in Gaza. Infact it already is violating this deal. As far as International laws are concerned then these laws have been made by Western countries to colonize weak nations but that is a separate topic which I would not discuss in this article. Despite knowing all this some Muslim countries were still signatories of this deal. Muslim countries did this so that so they can please America inorder to secure their own national interests. The Muslim countries that were signatories of this deal include Türkiye, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. All these Muslim nations should be ashamed of themselves especially Pakistan and Türkiye because despite having powerful armies and weapons they do not use this to help their own Muslim brothers fight oppression. Türkiye is helping Syria to strengthen itself for which Türkiye should be appreciated. Türkiye along with Qatar should also be appreciated for supporting the Syrian rebels that were fighting the tyranny of Bashar al-Assad, Russia and Iran but incase of Palestine both Türkiye and Qatar's role has been quite disappointing. Just recently Türkiye hosted a NATO summit. Whilst Türkiye presents itself as the protector and the leader of the Ummah but Türkiye didn't mention anything about the Israeli genocide of the Palestinians and even the Chinese oppression of Uyghurs. Eventhough many of those countries that attended this summit want to counter China's growing influence but still Türkiye didn't mention anything about the Uyghurs facing oppression in China. Pakistan was also silent for most of the time in the last three years of Israeli genocide but during the recent war between Iran and the USA it very happily presented itself as the mediator. It also signed defence agreements with Saudi Arabia and Qatar but not Palestinians. I am not saying that Pakistan shouldn't have presented itself as the mediator in the recent Iran-US war or it shouldn't have signed defence agreements with the Saudis and Qatar. These moves are for which Pakistan should be praised but why didn't it do anything for Palestine? Why didn't it arm Hamas against Israel? Similarly Saudi Arabia which is a wealthy country and champions itself as the guardian of the Holy cities of Makkah and Madinah but rather than helping their Muslim brothers by supporting them financially so that they can fight oppression they instead invest billions of dollars in the USA and also indirectly in Israel. The Saudis along with the UAE can bomb Yemen and support rebel groups in various Muslim countries they but won't even bother to help Hamas fight Israel. The same can be said about Iran. Iran was silent for most of the time in the last three years of Israeli genocide in Gaza and Lebanon. Most of the resistance against Israel was being carried out by Hamas, Houthis and Hezbollah while Iran watched and provided only limited support to them. It only attacked Israel and American military bases in the region when it was directly attacked by America and Israel. Iran does claim to hold the banner of resistance against imperialism but Iran itself has pursued imperialist policies in Iraq and Syria by killing innocent Muslims. In this regard it is no different than Saudi Arabia or the UAE who have done the same in many Muslim countries in the past or are still doing so. Allah says in the Quran regarding those who do not fight to help the oppressors;

And what is it with you? You do not fight in the cause of Allah and for oppressed men, women, and children who cry out, “Our Lord! Deliver us from this land of oppressors! Appoint for us a saviour; appoint for us a helper—all by Your grace.” [Surah An-Nisa Verse no.75]

In short Hamas's decision to dissolve its government in Gaza is not their failure but it is the failure of the entire Ummah. It is due the cowardice of the leaders of the Ummah that it has to take this decision.  It is not Hamas and the Palestinian resistance that have failed but rather it is the rest of the Ummah that has failed. Allah says in the Quran;

If you have suffered injuries ˹at Uḥud˺, they suffered similarly ˹at Badr˺. We alternate these days ˹of victory and defeat˺ among people so that Allah may reveal the ˹true˺ believers, choose martyrs from among you—and Allah does not like the wrongdoers. [Surah Al-Imran Verse no.140]

However the good thing is that Hamas has not laid down its arms which means it will continue to face oppression with bravery and one day by the will of Allah defeat Israel. This is the lession which the Ummah especially the leaders of the Ummah need to learn from Hamas. This is Hamas's success that when many Muslim countries were ready to sign the Abraham Accords with Israel they blocked this by attacking Israel. Now it has become difficult for Muslim countries to establish diplomatic relations with Israel but also for Western countries especially USA to support Israel. Hamas has exposed Israel and those countries that have backed Israel and this is the reason that large protests have been held in various Western nations against the Israeli genocide in Palestine. May Allah grant success to Hamas and to all those fighting Jihad against oppression and injustice around the world. Allah says in the Quran regarding those fighting Jihad and those who embrace martyrdom fighting oppression:

Those believers who stay at home except those with valid excuses are not equal to those who strive in the cause of Allah with their wealth and their lives. Allah has elevated in rank those who strive with their wealth and their lives above those who stay behind ˹with valid excuses˺. Allah has promised each a fine reward, but those who strive will receive a far better reward than others. [Surah An-Nisa verse no.95]

Should you be martyred or die in the cause of Allah, then His forgiveness and mercy are far better than whatever ˹wealth˺ those ˹who stay behind˺ accumulate. [Surah Al-Imran Verse no.157]

Never think of those martyred in the cause of Allah as dead. In fact, they are alive with their Lord, well provided for. [Surah Al-Imran Verse no.169]

So their Lord responded to them: “I will never deny any of you—male or female—the reward of your deeds. Both are equal in reward. Those who migrated or were expelled from their homes, and were persecuted for My sake and fought and ˹some˺ were martyred—I will certainly forgive their sins and admit them into Gardens under which rivers flow, as a reward from Allah. And with Allah is the finest reward!” [Surah Al-Imran Verse no.195]

NATO summit in Türkiye 

  I would also like to discuss briefly about the NATO summit that took place in Türkiye. All the deals and agreements that were signed during this summit were for the purpose of strengthening Europe and America's defence against Russia and China. This summit had very little to do for the benefit of the Ummah. However their was one thing that could be beneficial for the Ummah. This is America's sale of F-35 fighter jets to Türkiye. These jets are one of the most advanced fighter jets at the moment. These jets will strengthen Türkiye's air force. However the delivery of these jets to Türkiye can take a lot of time and it is possible that America can use any lame excuse to stop the delivery of these jets to Türkiye. Anyhow Türkiye does posses a very capable and thriving defence industry so if it acquires these jets then it can reverse engineer or conduct research on them to learn about the technology of these jets to create it's own and even more advanced version of these jets. This will strengthen Türkiye's defence and it can also sell those jets to other Muslim countries. Even if Türkiye is unable to acquire these F-35 which is quite likely then as I said before that Türkiye has a very capable defence industry then it can work with Pakistan which also has a thriving defence industry to create even better jets than F-35. This could be quite beneficial for the Ummah. Allah says in the Quran;

Prepare against them what you ˹believers˺ can of ˹military˺ power and cavalry to deter Allah’s enemies and your enemies as well as other enemies unknown to you but known to Allah. Whatever you spend in the cause of Allah will be paid to you in full and you will not be wronged. [Surah Al-Anfal Verse no.60]

 America's recent attacks on Iran

  The last thing which I would discuss briefly here is America's recent attacks on Iran. The new waves of attacks come as America seeks to open the Straight of Hormuz which was closed a few days ago by Iran. America has conducted airstrikes in Iran targeting various military facilities and critical civilian infrastructure. In response Iran has also targeted American military bases in the Gulf countries. America has also conducted strikes against various Iranian ships. In retaliation Iran has also targeted American naval vessels in the region. American President Trump said that America will control the Straight of Hormuz and will also charge tolls. Even though Iran and Oman are more entitled to control the Straight of Hormuz abd charge tolls on it. It will not be wrong to say that America's actions fall in the category of war crimes but no one has the power to utter a word against America for these actions. I pray to Allah that whatever the result of this conflict is it brings betterment to the Ummah and Iran is able to defeat America and Israel just like it has defeated them in the past. While doing so Iran should be cautious and should refrain from targeting civilian infrastructure in the Middle East because the people of the Middle East have nothing to do with the cowardice of their leaders. Iran should prove that it is not a genocidal entity like America and Israel and so it should only attack American military bases, naval vessels and Israel. 

O Allah guide the rulers of the Ummah and if their is no guidance in their fate then replace them with those who are worthy to rule the Ummah. O Allah grant Muslims courage to stand up to their rulers if they do something unlawful. O Allah unite the Ummah and eradicate the differences that are present between different Muslim countries. O Allah grant patience, strength and steadfastness to our Muslim brothers fighting oppression in Palestine, Kashmir, East Turkistan, Yemen, Myanmar, Iran, Sudan and elsewhere. O Allah give the Muslim Ummah the strength, courage and faith to help those who are being oppressed around the world.

Hadith Regarding Prohibition of cutting nails and hair in the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah for a person who wants to Sacrifice an Animal on Eid Al-Adha

Umm Salama, the wife of Allah's Apostle (ﷺ), reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) to have said:

He who has a sacrificial animal with him whom (he intends) to offer as sacrifice, and he enters the month of Dhu'I-Hijja, he should not get his hair cut or nails trimmed until he has sacrificed the animal. [Sahih Muslim 1997g]

Hadith no.388

Hadith Regarding equal punishment for individuals belonging to higher and lower status for breaking the law

Narrated Aisha:

The Quraish people became very worried about the Makhzumiya lady who had committed theft. They said, "Nobody can speak (in favor of the lady) to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and nobody dares do that except Usama who is the favorite of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ). " When Usama spoke to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) about that matter, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Do you intercede (with me) to violate one of the legal punishment of Allah?" Then he got up and addressed the people, saying, "O people! The nations before you went astray because if a noble person committed theft, they used to leave him, but if a weak person among them committed theft, they used to inflict the legal punishment on him. By Allah, if Fatima, the daughter of Muhammad committed theft, Muhammad will cut off her hand.!" [Sahih al-Bukhari 6788]

Hadith no.389

Sahih Hadith Regarding types of Animals disliked by Prophet Muhammad SAW for sacrifice

Ubayd ibn Fayruz reported: I asked al-Bara' ibn 'Azib what (types of animals) the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, disliked for sacrifice. He said, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: 'Four are not permissible for sacrifice: the one-eyed animal whose defect is obvious, the lame animal whose limp is obvious, the sick animal whose sickness is obvious, and the broken one that cannot walk properly.'" [Sahih Ibn Hibban 5922]

Hadith Regarding Virtues of First 10 days of Dhul Hijjah

Narrated Ibn `Abbas:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "No good deeds done on other days are superior to those done on these (first ten days of Dhul Hijjah)." Then some companions of the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Not even Jihad?" He replied, "Not even Jihad, except that of a man who does it by putting himself and his property in danger (for Allah's sake) and does not return with any of those things." [Sahih al-Bukhari 969]

Hadith no.392

Hadith Regarding Fasting on the Days of Arafah and Ashura

Abu Qatada reported that a person came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said:

How do you fast? The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) felt annoyed. When 'Umar (Allah be pleased with him) noticed his annoyance, he said: We are well pleased with Allah as our Lord, with Islam as our code of life, and with Muhammad as our Prophet. We seek refuge with Allah from the anger of Allah and that of His Messenger. 'Umar kept on repeating these words till his (the Prophet's) anger calmed down. Then Umar said: Messenger of Allah, what is the position of one who fasts perpetually? He (ﷺ) said: He neither fasted nor broke it, or he said: He did not fast and he did not break it. 'Umar said: What about him who fasts for two days and does not fast one day? He (ﷺ) said: Is anyone capable of doing that? He ('Umar) said: What is the position of him who fasts for a day and doesn't fast on the other day? Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: That is the fast of David (peace be upon him). He ('Umar) said: What about him who fasts one day and doesn't fast for two days. Thereupon he (the Messenger of Allah) said: I wish I were given the strength to do that. Thereafter he (ﷺ) said: Fasting three days every month and that of Ramadan every year is a perpetual fasting. I seek from Allah that fasting on the day of 'Arafa(9th if Dhul Hijjah) may atone for the sins of the preceding and the coming years, and I seek from Allah that fasting on the day of Ashura(10th of Muharram) may atone for the sins of the preceding year. [Sahih Muslim 1162a]

Current Situation of the Ummah

      The situation of the Ummah is quite devastating. The Ummah is divided into sects and 57 countries which pursue their own national interest most of the time and care very little about the sufferings of Muslims around the world. Most of the leaders of the Ummah are not competent enough to lead the Ummah or are just greedy of power and wealth. They only care about pursuing their own worldly desires so they are devoid of any sort of desire for the upbringing of the Ummah. Many Muslim countries are so poor that they can't even give jobs or feed their people and many are too weak to even defend themselves militarily. All this is because all Muslim states do not think as an Ummah but as separate countries. At times the interests of some Muslim countries can even coincide or go against the interests of other Muslim countries.

The Ummah is in a very dire situation not only politically but economically, militarily, intellectually and ethically as well. It is due to these and many other problems that the Ummah is facing due to which our brothers in Palestine, Kashmir, East Turkistan, Myanmar, India, Yemen, Africa and elsewhere are suffering from oppression, poverty, illiteracy and genocide etc. It would not be justified to blame entirely the leaders of the Ummah or the Muslim governments for this dire situation as we ordinary Muslims can also be blamed to a certain extent for this pathetic situation of the Ummah. However more blame would still be on the leaders of Muslim countries because they are at the position of authority and have got the power to change the current situation of the Ummah but as I said earlier either they are incapable to do so or do not want to take any sort of concrete action for the betterment of the Ummah. Most of the leaders of the Muslim countries are either held hostage by their own worldly desires or fear the enemies of Allah more than they fear Allah. In this situation when all the Muslims around the world are suffering it is up to us 1.8 billion Muslims around the world to do something. Now many of you must be thinking that what can we do? You must also be wondering that if our rulers are not willing to do something and if our enemies are powerful than what can we do to stop them? Yes I admit that the enemies of Islam who spread injustice around the world are powerful but are they even more powerful that Allah the Almighty? We must trust Allah and try our best to change this current situation. The enemies of Islam who are oppressing our Muslim brothers and sisters around the world are powerful indeed but that doesn't mean that we should allow our Muslim brothers and sisters to be oppressed. Think of it this way would you allow all this to happen to your own brothers, sisters, parents or children? Would you leave them at the hands of tyrants and oppressors saying that they are powerful and your power is unmatched in front of them? No you wouldn't infact you would try your best for their freedom. Similarly you should also help your Muslim brothers and sisters because according to the Prophet Muhammad SAW Muslims are brothers to one an other and that a Muslim should help his brother if he is being oppressed. Another thing which I would like to mention is that their are about 1.8 billion Muslims around the globe so if we combine our efforts we can achieve this task of uplifting the Ummah. 

 Hajj and Sacrifice of Animals as sources of unity and uplifting of the Ummah

   The month of Dhul Hijjah is about to arrive. The first 10 days of this month are quite precious so we must worship and pray to Allah as much as we can about the forgiveness and the betterment of the Ummah. It is the month where Muslims who are capable enough act upon the Sunnah of Prophet Ibrahim A.S and sacrifice animals according to their own financial capabilities. Prophet Ibrahim was willing to sacrifice his most precious thing which was his son Ismael in the cause of Allah Almighty so that he can please Allah. Allah was so pleased with his effort that he put a ram in place of Prophet Ismael as a reward for his effort. Now I call upon all the Muslims around the world and the leaders of the Muslim countries in particular to sacrifice their worldly desires while acting upon the Sunnah of Prophet Ibrahim A.S so that we can stand up to the injustice happening around the world in a much better way because as long as we are held hostage to our own Nafs or our worldly desires we would remain cowards and would never be able to stand against injustice and tyranny. 

   The month of Dhul Hijjah is also the month in which Muslims from all around the world go to Makkah to perform Hajj for the sake of Allah. I will not go in the details of the method of performing Hajj because I am not a scholar and I do not have expertise in these matters. Anyhow as Muslims we all know that Hajj is a very special type of worship in Islam. Infact Hajj is one of the five pillars of Islam. Hajj is also a great opportunity where about 2 million Hajj pilgrims from various backgrounds, ethnicities and races join in Makkah to worship Allah Almighty. Think of it this way about 2 million Hajj pilgrims arriving in Makkah in order to worship Allah. If our Allah who we worship is one if our Deen which is Islam is one if our Kaaba which is also our Qibla is one then how can we be so divided into sects, races and nationalities? Muslims who have got so much in common should be the most united nation in this world but unfortunately that is not true. So all Muslims who are going to perform Hajj should realize this and work in their own respective capacities to unite the Ummah. The Khutbah which is one of the most important part of Hajj can be a great way to educate Hajj pilgrims regarding the Problems of the entire world and the possible solutions to these problems according to Quran and the Sunnah because Quran and the Sunnah are the only source of guidance for mankind. Unfortunately this doesn't happen because the Saudi government only allows a scripted Khutbah to be spoken by the Imam of the Kaaba which significantly limits the impact the Khutbah can have on the Hajj pilgrims. This opportunity should also be used by Muslims to pressure the Muslim leaders to take concrete steps for the betterment of the Ummah. It should serve as an opportunity for Muslims to signal the enemies of Islam that Muslims are not weak, coward or disunited and that Islam has not been defeated. They should know that despite the obstacles Muslims are united and will not bow down infront of injustice and tyranny. The global world order which has been led by America is collapsing and a vacuum of power is emerging. In this power vacuum new powers such as Russia and China etc are rising. In this situation it is very important for the Muslim Ummah to carve out a space of their own so that they can also emerge as the new centres of power. The Ummah has got the manpower, resources, geography and opportunity etc. to revive past glory and lead the world just like they have led in the past. What can we do to achieve this? For this we need to strengthen our ties with each other both on state level as well as on individual level. Hajj can serve as a very good opportunity for this for ordinary Muslims to form and strengthen brotherly bonds with each other. Whilst this world order is collapsing Muslims instead of allying themselves with China, Russia or America must ally with themselves and with Allah Almighty. Of course temporary alliances can be created with these world powers but that should not be at the cost of damaging the collective interest of the Ummah and neither should it be at the cost of our brothers who are being oppressed by these world powers. Allah says in the Quran;

Your only guardians are Allah, His Messenger, and fellow believers—who establish prayer and pay alms-tax with humility. [Surah Al-Maidah Verse no.55]

Whoever allies themselves with Allah, His Messenger, and fellow believers, then it is certainly Allah’s party that will prevail. [Surah Al-Maidah Verse no.56]

As for the disbelievers, they are guardians of one another. And unless you ˹believers˺ act likewise, there will be great oppression and corruption in the land. [Surah Al-Anfal Verse no.73]

These verses are quite clear that Muslims must ally themselves with each other to establish justice and to end corruption and oppression in the land. If all of us 1.8 billion Muslims are united on individual level then this could push the leaders of the Ummah as well to unite. If all of us are united then we could stand up to the injustice and tyranny that is taking place around the globe not just with Muslims but with Non Muslims as well. We have to be united for the sake of our oppressed brothers and sisters, to establish justice, for the upbringing of the Ummah and especially to please Allah Almighty because Allah has forbidden Muslims in the Quran from dividing themselves into sects. Allah says in the Quran;

And hold firmly together to the rope of Allah and do not be divided. Remember Allah’s favour upon you when you were enemies, then He united your hearts, so you—by His grace—became brothers. And you were at the brink of a fiery pit and He saved you from it. This is how Allah makes His revelations clear to you, so that you may be ˹rightly˺ guided. [Surah Al Imran Verse no.103]

Indeed, you ˹O Prophet˺ are not responsible whatsoever for those who have divided their faith and split into sects. Their judgment rests only with Allah. And He will inform them of what they used to do. [Surah Al Anam Verse no.159]

One major obstacle in the unity and strength of the Ummah are our own leaders. The reason why I once again like to call out the leaders of the Ummah is that I also mentioned earlier that they are at the position of authority and can work together to stand against injustice and for the unity of the Ummah but they choose not to do so. They have got the power to change the fortune of the Ummah and of the rest of the world. Not all but most of the leaders of the Ummah are slaves to their own worldly desires, their own greed and they are so slaves of the major world powers who spread injustice, tyranny and oppression around the globe. Yes I admit that at many instances Muslim leaders do some good things for which they should be applauded but at many instances they make decisions that are not beneficial to the Ummah. Apart from this there are many Muslim governments and leaders who oppress their own people. We must unite and stand against these sort of Muslim governments as well who instead of fighting against the enemies of Islam fight and oppress their own people. This could be one of many reasons why leaders of the Ummah do not stand against injustice committed by the major world powers and another reason could be that most of the time they fear the enemies of Allah more than they fear Allah. I call upon the leaders of the Ummah to sacrifice their worldly desires and your wealth just like how Prophet Ibrahim A.S willingly sacrificed his own son Prophet Ismael A.S. Similarly I call upon the Muslim rulers who oppress their own people to stop oppressing your own people and fear Allah. Do not forget that Pharaoh was also a tyrant but he faced Allah's wrath due to his wrongdoings.

   When we ordinary Muslims from different ethnic, racial and cultural background unite and stand against the enemies of Islam then this would be a strong message to them that despite the odds and despite their oppression, tyranny, corruption and injustice Muslims are united and strong and would never bow infront of them. We should also give a strong message to the Muslim rulers who serve their own individual interests instead of the interests of the Ummah and ally themselves with the enemies of Islam that if they do not do something to end this oppression and injustice then they should hand over their power to those who fear only Allah and are worthy to lead the Ummah. To achieve all this Muslims need to be united and throughout this article I have iterated that there is no better occasion to be united than Hajj and also Umrah. This is because these are the occasions where Muslims from all races, ethnicities, sects and background unite to please one Allah infront of the same Qibla which is the Kaaba underneath one sky. At last I would like to congratulate those who are performing Hajj and sacrificing their animals this year. May Allah accept their Hajj and their worship. May Allah give those people the opportunity to perform Hajj who couldn't do so this year. Those Muslims who will be sacrificing Animals this year May Allah accept their sacrifice. May Allah Almighty give all Muslims and the Muslim leaders the opportunity to sacrifice our Nafs and our desires with the same valour with which we will sacrifice animals on this Eid al-Adha. At last I want to congratulate Eid al-Adha in advance to the entire Ummah.

O Allah guide the rulers of the Ummah and if their is no guidance in their fate then replace them with those who are worthy to rule the Ummah. O Allah grant Muslims courage to stand up to their rulers if they do something unlawful. O Allah unite the Ummah and eradicate the differences that are present between different Muslim countries. O Allah grant patience, strength and steadfastness to our Muslim brothers fighting oppression in Palestine, Kashmir, East Turkistan, Yemen, Myanmar, Iran, Sudan and elsewhere. O Allah give the Muslim Ummah the strength, courage and faith to help those who are being oppressed around the world.

Hadith Regarding the Reconquest of Constantinople(Istanbul) and the Release of Masih Ad-dajjal(Anti-Christ)

Abu Huraira reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

The Last Hour would not come until the Romans would land at al-A'maq or in Dabiq. An army consisting of the best (soldiers) of the people of the earth at that time will come from Medina (to counteract them). When they will arrange themselves in ranks, the Romans would say: Do not stand between us and those (Muslims) who took prisoners from amongst us. Let us fight with them; and the Muslims would say: Nay, by Allah, we would never get aside from you and from our brethren that you may fight them. They will then fight and a third (part) of the army would run away, whom Allah will never forgive. A third (part of the army) which would be constituted of excellent martyrs in Allah's eye, would be killed and the third who would never be put to trial would win and they would be conquerors of Constantinople. And as they would be busy in distributing the spoils of war (amongst themselves) after hanging their swords by the olive trees, the Satan would cry: The Dajjal has taken your place among your family. They would then come out, but it would be of no avail. And when they would come to Syria, he would come out while they would be still preparing themselves for battle drawing up the ranks. Certainly, the time of prayer shall come and then Jesus (peace be upon him) son of Mary would descend and would lead them. When the enemy of Allah would see him, it would (disappear) just as the salt dissolves itself in water and if he (Jesus) were not to confront them at all, even then it would dissolve completely, but Allah would kill them by his hand and he would show them their blood on his lance (the lance of Jesus Christ). [Sahih Muslim 2897]

Al-A'maq is a place in southern Türkiye and Dabiq is a place in northern Syria.

My Analysis on the American and Israeli attacks on Iran

   Before expressing my thoughts on this topic I want to share an update that a temporary ceasefire has been agreed by Iran, America and Israel. Both stakeholders have agreed to halt attacks on each other for two weeks during which talks will be held in Islamabad to find a permanent solution to this conflict  I pray to Allah that this ceasefire is source of blessing for the Ummah. Pakistan played a very crucial role in this ceasefire for which they should be appreciated. Pakistan playing a positive and active role at world stage is a very good thing for the Ummah.

    Now I would like to express my thoughts on this war. This article was written a couple of days so many parts of it might not be updated according to the current situation. First of all I would like to make it clear that I have got huge differences with the Iranian regime and I have often often criticized Iran for its wrongdoings but in this dire situation I pray for Iran to be victorious victorious over the US and Israel. Those Muslims who have got any sort of sectarian, ideological differences with the Iranian regime must bury those differences and must side with Iran. No matter how bad Iran is it is still way better then the US or Israel. Iran is a Muslim country and it has got a rich Islamic history and tradition so if Iran is defeated then this history and tradition will also be erased. Many great Muslim empires like Seljuks, Ghaznavids, Safavids, Ottomans and various Muslim empires in the Indian Subcontinent were very much culturally Persian although most of them were ethnically non Persian. Many great Muslim scholars like Imam Bukhari, Imam Abu Hanifah, Imam Ghazali, Ibn Sina, Ibn Rushd, Al Farabi, Nasiruddin Al-Tusi, Nizam al-Mulk etc were also Persian. Infact many great Muslim scholars have been buried in Iran. The fall of Iran to the US and Israel would mean the loss of all this rich cultural, historical, scholarly and philosophical tradition that Iran is home to so we as Muslim Ummah can not allow a part of the Ummah like Iran that has such rich Islamic history and tradition to be defeated. The victory of Iran would mean the victory of the Ummah and Iran is part of the Ummah. Allah says in the Holy Quran;

Obey Allah and His Messenger and do not dispute with one another, or you would be discouraged and weakened. Persevere! Surely Allah is with those who persevere. [Surah Anfal verse no.46]

So in these testing moments all the Muslims should bury the differences they have with each other and must support Iran in its resistance against the US and Israeli imperialism. In his latest statement Trump has once again threatened to attack Iran and destroy its civilian infrastructure if Iran does not open the Strait of Hormuz. While this shows Trump's frustration from the losses that have been inflicted by Iran on the US and Israel it also shows that Trump would do something quite evil if he doesn't get his desired evil ambitions. It also shows his criminal mindset. Let's pray to Allah that everything goes right and Iran is victorious over the America and Israel. I also wrote in my previous article and I would write it again that if the Ummah doesn't stand up for Iran then this US and Israeli imperialism will not stop infact it is highly likely they could target other powerful Muslim countries like Pakistan or Türkiye. This is the pattern that we have observed for the last three decades when America and its allies have invaded various Muslim countries like Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Yemen, Somalia and Syria etc. The leaders of the Ummah have not done anything at all to support the Muslims suffering in these countries or to stop America and its allies from invading these countries. They either remained silent or in most cases they were complicit in the sufferings of these Muslim states. The reason is that most of the leaders of the Ummah do not have the courage to stand up and challenge the West. The second reason is that the leaders of the Ummah care more about their wealth then the sufferings of the Ummah. They do not use their wealth to support Muslims resisting oppression but they use this wealth to buy expensive properties or to invest in Western countries. The disunity within the Ummah is also an important factor which has weakend the Ummah. Let us not forget the fact that the leaders of the Ummah have also disappointed our Muslim brothers who are suffering in Palestine, Kashmir, East Türkistan and elsewhere by not taking any concrete steps to help them. These reasons have emboldened the Western imperialist states and also China and Russia to kill our innocent Muslim brothers because they know that the leaders of the Ummah will not do anything to stop them. Some people would argue that it is wrong for Iran to block the Strait of Hormuz. My response to this is that why were you silent when both Europe and America have over the years imposed brutal sanctions and embargos on various countries which do not bow down to American or European imperialism? These sanctions have resulted in the deaths of Millions of people in those countries and gave also devastated their economies. Now when Iran has taken the control of the Strait of Hormuz and is charging fares on ships that are passing through you come and finally Europe and America starts to taste the medicine of what they have been doing in the past you guys come and  cry about the closure Strait of Hormuz. In fact all of you should be ashamed of yourself for this hypocrisy.

   Now I would also like to address the monarchies of the gulf states. I am not saying that Iran is doing a right thing by bombing the gulf countries but their are some important things which we should not forget. I am not in favor of Iran attacking civilian infrastructure of the gulf states even if America and Israel bomb Iran's civilian infrastructure. Iran should show that they are morally better than Israel and America. In my opinion Iran's attacks should be only limited to targeting Israel, American military bases and Economic interests. All the gulf states have called upon Iran not to violate their sovereignty by attacking their countries. Eventhough most of the attacks by Iran have been carried out against American military bases present in their countries. Well the real question here arises that are these Gulf countries truly sovereign? I mean how can you be sovereign if you have a foreign Military base in your own country? I would also ask them that why did they violate the sanctity and sovereignty of the Ummah by allowing American military bases in their own countries? These bases have also been used by America to attack Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Syria etc. which has resulted in the deaths of Millions of innocent Muslims. Now these same bases are also being used to attack Iran so it is Iran's right to attack these military bases. Similarly these Gulf states have criticized Iran for bombing the energy infrastructure of the gulf countries but I need to ask them a simple question that why didn't they condemn Israel's genocide in Palestine or the invasion in Lebanon? Infact many gulf states were complicit in Israel's genocide in Palestine. They also didn't do anything when America violated the sovereignty of Iraq and Afghanistan by invading them infact the military bases present in these Gulf states were used to attack Afghanistan, Iraq and other Muslim nations. Why have these Gulf countries not criticized or threatened Israel and America for attacking Iran's energy infrastructure?

    All the oil that exists in these rich gulf states belongs to the entire Ummah. The money earned by selling this oil should be used for the betterment of the Ummah. It should be used to help those who are resisting oppression against imperialism or to eradicate poverty that exists around the world but instead all this money that is earned by selling this oil is used by these monarchies of the Gulf states to build lavish palaces or to instigate violence in other Muslim countries etc. Apart from this the money that these Gulf states earn by selling this oil is invested in various Western countries which is then used by them to fund wars against our Muslim brothers. All the tall buildings that are present in various Middle Eastern or Gulf states have been built by importing cheap labour from countries such as Pakistan, India or Philippines etc. In reply not only are these labourers paid poorly but they are treated as slaves. Those Muslim countries who think that Israel will stop after removing the Iranian regime are wrong because Israel can not stop as it has to instigate chaos in other Muslim countries for its survival. Infact at this very moment Israel is invading Lebanon but Hezbollah is fighting quite impressively to resist Israel. When all this is happening Israel is still busy murdering our innocent Palestinian brothers. I call upon the Ummah to stand up to this injustice and to mobilize in order to put pressure on the leaders of the Ummah to break the shackles of slavery and end this humiliation that the Ummah is going through. It is for the first time in the last two centuries that Muslims have a chance to be actually independent and break free of Western slavery. O Muslims remember the Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad PBUH in which he said that all Muslims are brothers to each other. At the moment your brothers are facing oppression around the world so you should not be silent. You should stand up to all this oppression and give a strong message to the enemies of Islam that the Ummah will not allow this to happen. We must give a strong message to the leaders of the Ummah as well who are actually hostage of the Western countries that if they can not do anything to end all this oppression then they must step aside and allow those people to lead the Ummah who are actually worthy of leading the Ummah. I call upon the Ummah especially the leaders of the Ummah to not fear anyone but Allah because only he is the one worthy enough to be feared and not to be be held hostage by your worldly desires. We should not abandon our Muslim brothers who are facing oppression around the world and we should support them in their resistance against oppression. The Western countries especially America and Israel are at war with Islam so the Ummah mush prepare to face them.

While Israel is bombing Iran it is also invading Lebanon. Israeli airstrikes in Lebanon have resulted in the deaths of more than thousand innocent civilians. It is doing so because it is frustrated that it has failed to eradicate Hezbollah which was previously thought to have been weakend significantly. Hezbollah is fighting quite bravely and they have inflicted heavy blows on Israel. I know I have criticized Hezbollah's wrongdoings in the past but in their fight against Israel I will support them. Similarly the Houthis in Yemen are also doing a good job. They have also attacked Israel by launching missiles at Israel. I pray to Allah that both Hezbollah and Houthis are victorious over the enemies of Islam. As far as the talks to finalize a permanent peacedeal between Iran and America are concerned I pray that Iran remains steadfast while finalizing a deal just like how it remained steadfast during this war. Iran must not agree upon anything which goes against the interests of the Ummah. It must also not forget those Muslim countries that helped it during this conflict. The rights of our brothers in Palestine, Yemen and Lebanon must also be protected and included in this deal. Their rights must not be abandoned. If Iran abandons the rights of our Muslim brothers who are also facing oppression at the hands of America or Israel then their wouldn't be any difference between them and the gulf states who have also abandoned the rights of the Ummah. I still pray to Allah that everything goes right because you can not trust America or Israel.‎

O Allah guide the rulers of the Ummah and if their is no guidance in their fate then replace them with those who are worthy to rule the Ummah. O Allah grant Muslims courage to stand up to their rulers if they do something unlawful. O Allah unite the Ummah and eradicate the differences that are present between different Muslim countries. O Allah grant patience, strength and steadfastness to our Muslim brothers fighting oppression in Palestine, Kashmir, East Turkistan, Yemen, Myanmar, Iran, Sudan and elsewhere. O Allah give the Muslim Ummah the strength, courage and faith to help those who are being oppressed around the world.

Thoughts on US and Israeli attacks on Iran

   

  The US and Israel launched an unprovoked attack on Iran which has resulted in the killing of many innocent Iranian civilians. It was expected that Israel can do such an attack because this was what happened last year as well when Iran and US were having talks and Israel attacked Iran. There are some important things which we need to focus here. The first thing is that it is very clear that the US and Israel want the Iranian regime to fall because if the Iranian regime falls then there would be no one to challenge Israel in the entire Middle East. The second important thing is that Israel doesn't want Iran to aquire Nuclear weapons because a Nuclear state like Iran can challenge US and Israeli ambitions. In my opinion one of the biggest mistake of Khamenei was to issue a fatwa which prevented Iran from acquiring Nuclear weapons which is quite surprising because to fight someone like the US and Israel who are themselves Nuclear armed states you must have Nuclear weapons yourself. This is also what I spoke about in one of my previous articles as well. The third important thing is that if the Iranian regime collapses and it is replaced by a regime which is Pro Israel or Pro American then it would be dangerous for the region especially for Türkiye and Pakistan which is the only Islamic Nuclear state in the world. Out of all the Islamic countries it is only Iran, Türkiye and Pakistan that have the capacity to counter Israel so it is quite probable that after a regime change in Iran the Israelis could target Türkiye or Pakistan as well. Infact many Israeli defense analyst already say that Türkiye is a big threat to Israel. Despite knowing this all of the Muslim countries are doing nothing except for condemning US and Israeli attacks on Iran. There are some people who are happy that Iran has been struck by Israel because the Iranian regime in the past have committed atrocities against them. Yes I admit that in the past Iran has conducted many atrocities across in Syria and elsewhere. I have always criticized Iran in my articles on conducting these atrocities but now the situation is different. Iran at the moment is facing oppression against an enemy which is even more oppressive then Iran. The Prophet Muhammad SAW also faced many atrocities by the disbelievers of Makkah but at the time of Conquest of Makkah the Prophet Muhammad forgave all of his enemies. So Muslims who have been oppressed by Iran in the past should forgive Iran and move forward. They should also do what the Prophet Muhammad SAW did with his enemies. Those who have been oppressed at the hands of Iran in the past must forgive Iran for the sake of Allah. If you think that Israel and Americans are your friends and they will stop after changing the regime in Iran then you are wrong. This was the same mistake which Iran made when the US invaded Iraq to finish Saddam's regime. Iran indirectly supported the US saying that 'Saddam was an enemy of Iran who killed millions of Iranians so his removal from power is justified' but now if you do the same which is to support or be joyful of American attacks on Iran then you would also regret it after twenty years just like Iran is regretting today. There are also some Muslims who are happy that Iran is under attack because of the sectarian and ideological differences that they have with the Iranian regime. Allah says in the Quran;

Indeed, you ˹O Prophet˺ are not responsible whatsoever for those who have divided their faith and split into sects. Their judgment rests only with Allah. And He will inform them of what they used to do. —[Surah Al-Anam Verse no.159]

It is quite clear from this verse that Allah forbids us not to be divided so I ask the Ummah and especially its rulers that why don't you act on this verse of the Quran? Why don't you act upon the saying of the Prophet Muhammad SAW in which he says that help your brother when he is being oppressed. Regardless of the differences the Ummah must help Iran because it is our brotherly Muslim nation. Is it nice to leave your brother alone when he is being oppressed just because you have some differences with him. Iran has conducted retaliatory strikes by attacking American bases in the gulf states and they have also launched missiles against Israel as well. Infact there are many Muslim countries that are condemning Iran for conducting retaliatory strikes against US bases in the gulf states but why aren't they condemning those gulf states for hosting US bases in their own countries. It is these bases from which the US has conducted strikes against Iran so it is completely justified for Iran to strike these bases. All those Muslim countries whether it is Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, the UAE etc. should be ashamed to host US bases in their own countries. These bases have also been used in the past to kill our brothers in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Palestine as well but like always all of these wealthy gulf states will not even bother to do anything to help their oppressed Iranian brothers infact they will do what their Lord which is the US tells them to do. They are stupid to believe that after finishing Iran the US and Israel will leave their respective Kingdoms alone. It is a pattern that has been repeated by the US to get rid of every regime that opposes American interests or which is against Israel's ambitions to create Greater Israel so today it is Iran tomorrow it will be your turn as well. All the Islamic countries must decide fast what to do. I have some questions from the leaders of the Ummah. Do you want to delay the inevitable of the US finishing your regimes as well which they eventually will or do you want to fight in the path of Allah and help your Iranian brothers? Do you want to live like cowards as slaves of America and Israel or do you want an honorary and respectable death in the path of Allah? Do you want to bow infront of the US or do you want to bow infront of Allah? O leaders of the Ummah How would you face Allah and his messenger on the day of Judgement? You were also silent when our brothers in Palestine, Iraq, Afghanistan, Kashmir and East Turkistan were being murdered and if you remain silent now then this silence will be the cause of your demise as well. O leaders of the Ummah if you think that sitting idle in your Palaces will save you from death then you are wrong. Allah says in the Quran;

Wherever you may be, death will overcome you—even if you were in fortified towers.” When something good befalls them, they say, “This is from Allah,” but when something evil befalls them, they say, “This is from you.” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “Both have been destined by Allah.” So what is the matter with these people? They can hardly comprehend anything! [Surah An-nisa Verse no.78]

Another important thing which I would talk about is the role of Russia and China in this conflict. I admit that Russia and China have provided logistical support to Iran and they have good relations with many countries but they use Muslim countries merely as buffer zones against the US. They would never provide any meaningful help besides providing little bit of logistical support. They are not our allies. China is conducting a genocide against our Muslim brothers in East Turkistan and they are also oppressing Tibetans. Russia has been also involved in killing out brothers in Dagestan, Syria and elsewhere. All I am trying to say is that Muslims must unite with themselves rather then allying with the enemies of Islam and kill our brothers. The Muslim countries must form a bloc among themselves to challenge the West and play an active role in global politics. This bloc shouldn't be a dummy bloc like the OIC which does nothing. Allah says in the Quran;

Your only guardians are Allah, His Messenger, and fellow believers—who establish prayer and pay alms-tax with humility. [Surah Al-Ma'idah Verse no.55]

Whoever allies themselves with Allah, His Messenger, and fellow believers, then it is certainly Allah’s party that will prevail. [Surah Al-Ma'idah Verse no.56]

In regards to Iran acquiring Nuclear weapons then I think if a country wants to maintain its sovereignty then it must have nuclear weapons otherwise it would be very difficult for it to survive. This is one of the biggest mistakes that Iran made by not acquiring Nuclear weapons and wasting time conducting talks with the US on not acquiring Nuclear weapons. Pakistan is the only Muslim country to have nuclear weapons so all the Muslim countries should sign a Nuclear pact with Pakistan and also must acquire Nuclear weapons themselves as well. If our enemies who are definitely conspiring to eradicate us and Islam from this world have nuclear weapons then we a must also have them. Allah says in the Quran;

Prepare against them what you ˹believers˺ can of ˹military˺ power and cavalry to deter Allah’s enemies and your enemies as well as other enemies unknown to you but known to Allah. Whatever you spend in the cause of Allah will be paid to you in full and you will not be wronged. [Surah Anfal Verse no.60]

At last I would like to express my condolences to the Iranian people and our Shia brothers on the martyrdom of Ayatollah Khamenei. Although I had many differences with his policies and I have never shied away from criticizing Khamenei in my articles but I pray to Allah to forgive his sins and grant him a high status in Paradise. Indeed his loss is a huge loss for our Shia brothers, for Iran and for the Ummah and it would be difficult to fullfil his loss.

Conflict between Pakistan and Afghanistan 

   Indeed it is sad to see two brotherly Muslim nations fight each other in this blessed month. The grievances that both Pakistan and Afghanistan have from each other must be taken seriously by both of them. These grievances must be resolved by both sides. Afghanistan shouldn't become a puppet at the hands of India against Pakistan and Pakistan should also not go to far in bombing terrorist sanctuaries in Afghanistan which can result in the collapse of the Taliban regime which could be disastrous for Pakistan and the entire region. Afghanistan should also stop support terrorists against Pakistani. At a time when our brotherly Muslim nation Iran is being attacked the two countries should focus on protecting Iran rather then fighting each other. Other Muslim countries must work to resolve this conflict.

O Allah accept the fasting and the worship performed by the Ummah during this Holy month of Ramadan. O Allah guide the rulers of the Ummah and if their is no guidance in their fate then replace them with those who are worthy to rule the Ummah. O Allah grant Muslims courage to stand up to their rulers if they do something unlawful. O Allah unite the Ummah and eradicate the differences that are present between different Muslim countries. O Allah grant patience, strength and steadfastness to our Muslim brothers fighting oppression in Palestine, Kashmir, East Turkistan, Yemen, Myanmar, Sudan and elsewhere. O Allah give the Muslim Ummah the strength, courage and faith to help those who are being oppressed around the world.

Hadith Regarding Virtues of Fasting for the sake of Allah

Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (Allah be pleased with him) reported Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

He who observes fast for a day in the way of Allah He would remove his face from the Hell to the extent of seventy years' distance. [Sahih Muslim 1153c]

The Prophet (ﷺ) used to recite the Holy Qur'an to Gabriel, and when Gabriel met him, he used to be more generous than a fast wind (which causes rain and welfare). [Sahih al Bukhari 1902]

Sahih Hadith Regarding Reward of Fasting 

Yahya related to me from Malik from Abu'z Zinad from al-Araj from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "By the One in Whose hand my self is, the smell of the breath of a man fasting is better with Allah than the scent of musk.' He leaves his desires and his food and drink for My sake. Fasting is for Me and I reward it. Every good action is rewarded by ten times its kind, up to seven hundred times, except fasting, which is for Me, and I reward it.' " [Muwatta Imam Malik 691]

Hadith no.353

Hadith Regarding Being Successful

It is reported on the authority of Talha b. 'Ubaidullah that a person with dishevelled hair, one of the people of Nejd, came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). We heard the humming of his voice but could not fully discern what he had been saying, till he came nigh to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). It was then (disclosed to us) that he was asking questions pertaining to Islam. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

Five prayers during the day and the night. (Upon this he said: Am I obliged to say any other (prayer) besides these? He (the Holy Prophet, ) said: No, but whatever you observe voluntarily, out of your own free will, and the fasts of Ramadan. The inquirer said: Am I obliged to do anything else besides this? He (the Holy Prophet) said: No, but whatever you do out of your own free will. And the Messenger of Allah told him about the Zakat (poor-rate). The inquirer said: Am I obliged to pay anything else besides this? He (the Holy Prophet) said: No, but whatever you pay voluntarily out of your own free will. The man turned back and was saying: I would neither make any addition to this, nor will decrease anything out of it. The Prophet remarked: He is successful, if he is true to what he affirms. [Sahih Muslim 11a]

Hadith no.354

Sahih Hadith Regarding Obeying the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad PBUH

Abu Hurairah narrated that:

The Prophet said: "Leave me as I have left you (Don't ask me the minor things that I have avoided to tell you). For those who came before you were doomed because of their questions and differences with their Prophets. If I commanded you to do something, then do as much of it as you can, and if I forbid you from doing something, then refrain from it." [Sunan Ibn e Majah 2]

Message to the Ummah Regarding Ramadan

        Happy Ramadan to the entire Ummah.  This is the Holy month in which gates of Hell are closed and the gates of Paradise are opened. In this Holy Month Muslims in general do as much good deeds as they can so that they can please Allah Almighty. This is the month in which Muslims worship Allah more than they usually do all year around so that they can seek Allah's forgiveness and blessings. When Muslims around the world are doing good deeds, worshipping Allah, seeking Allah's forgiveness they should not forget their Muslim brothers around the world who are either poor or facing  oppression. The entire Ummah should pray to Allah and should take practical steps to help their brothers and sisters who are suffering from poverty, oppression and injustice. As per the Hadith of Prophet Muhammad PBUH the Ummah is like a body if one part of the body is in pain the entire body suffers. This means that Muslims no matter in which part of the world they are should feel the pain and suffering of each other and should work to help each other out. This is because all of the Muslims regardless of their ethnicity or race etc are one Ummah which resembles a body and a body can not be relaxed if one part of it is suffering. Another thing which I would like to mention regarding this Holy Month is that this is the month when it is the best time for Muslims to redefine their character as per the Quran and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad PBUH. We all know that at the moment the Muslim Ummah is going through a crisis and the only way to go pass this crisis successfully is by redefining our characters both as individual Muslims and collectively as an Ummah. We should also work to correcting our mistakes. Since Quran and the Hadith of the Prophet Muhammad are the only source of guidance for mankind so Muslims during this Holy Month should read the Quran and the Hadith and should try to act according to them. This will be beneficial for us not only in this life but in the life hereafter as well. May Allah except the prayers, worships, and fastings of the entire Ummah in this Holy Month of Ramadan and May Allah grant Muslims the opportunity to use this Holy Month to improve themselves individually and collectively so that we can be a source of guidance for Non Muslims as well.

Board of Peace

‎A few days ago a meeting of Board of Peace was held in Washington presided by Trump. This board should be called board of war and oppression rather than board of peace. I have written in my previous articles that this board of peace has nothing to do with peace or with the rights of the Palestinians but rather it has been made to legitimize Israel's genocide of Palestinians particularly Gaza. Although this so called ceasefire has been established but that ceasefire hasn't stopped Israel from murdering our Palestinian brothers. The worst part of this is that leaders of the Ummah are also complicit in this ethnic cleansing. Except for Iran most of the other Muslim countries were either silent or just issued pragmatic and bold statements that were devoid of any concrete steps to help the Palestinians. Many Muslim countries continued to do trade with Israel even supplying them with trade routes as well so that Israel can trade freely. Many Western countries like UK and France who are one of America's biggest allies also didn't volunteer to be a part of this so called board of peace but many important Muslim countries volunteered themselves and accepted Trump's invitation to be a part of this board of peace. The leaders of the Ummah should be ashamed of themselves. They fear that if they stand up against the US then they will face severse consequences. I ask the Muslim Ummah especially the leaders of the Ummah that who do you fear more Allah or the US? If you fear Allah then have faith on Allah because only he has the power to grant success or failure. What Muslim countries are doing at the moment is that they are trying to avoid the inevitable of going against the US. They think that by doing this or allying their policies with the US the US will leave them alone and won't attack them or won't put tariffs and sanctions on them. Another fear of the Muslim countries is that they fear that by going against the US can have severe consequences on their economies even though it is not the US that grants wealth and strength to people but it is Allah Almighty. This is just rubbish because whenever the US would get the opportunity it will betray the very Muslim countries that are allied with the US at this moment and have willing volunteered to be a part of this so called board of peace. In this regards I would like to mention couple of Verses of the Holy  Holy Quran in which Allah says;

Similarly, when your Lord brought you ˹O Prophet˺ out of your home for a just cause, a group of believers was totally against it. [Surah Anfal Verse no.5]

They disputed with you about the truth after it had been made clear, as if they were being driven to death with their eyes wide open. [Surah Anfal Verse no.6]

 ˹Remember, O  believers,˺ when Allah promised ˹to give˺ you the upper hand over either target, you wished to capture the unarmed party. But it was Allah’s Will to establish the truth by His Words and uproot the disbelievers; [Surah Anfal Verse no.7]

to firmly establish the truth and wipe out falsehood—even to the dismay of the wicked [Surah Anfal Verse no.8]

˹Remember˺ when you cried out to your Lord for help, He answered, “I will reinforce you with a thousand angels—followed by many others.” [Surah Anfal Verse no.9]

 And Allah made this a sign of victory and reassurance to your hearts. Victory comes only from Allah. Surely Allah is Almighty, All-Wise. [Surah Anfal Verse no.10]

˹Remember˺ when He caused drowsiness to overcome you, giving you serenity. And He sent down rain from the sky to purify you, free you from Satan’s whispers, strengthen your hearts, and make ˹your˺ steps firm. [Surah Anfal Verse no.11]

˹Remember, O  Prophet,˺ when your Lord revealed to the angels, “I am with you. So make the believers stand firm. I will cast horror into the hearts of the disbelievers. So strike their necks and strike their fingertips.” [Surah Anfal Verse no.12]

Indeed, it is Allah who is the (continual) Provider, the firm possessor of strength. [Surah Adh-Dhariyat Verse no.58] 

And indeed, it is Allah who is the best of providers. [Surah Al-Hajj Verse no.58]

O Allah guide the rulers of the Ummah and if their is no guidance in their fate then replace them with those who are worthy to rule the Ummah. O Allah grant Muslims courage to stand up to their rulers if they do something unlawful. O Allah unite the Ummah and eradicate the differences that are present between different Muslim countries. O Allah grant patience, strength and steadfastness to our Muslim brothers fighting oppression in Palestine, Kashmir, East Turkistan, Yemen, Myanmar, Sudan and elsewhere. O Allah give the Muslim Ummah the strength, courage and faith to help those who are being oppressed around the world.
