Do you enjoin Al-Birr (piety and righteousness and each and every act of obedience to Allah) on the people and you forget (to practise it) yourselves, while you recite the Scripture [the Taurat (Torah)]! Have you then no sense? [Al-Baqarah 44]
It is reported in the same newspaper as follows:
Comment:
There is no doubt that anyone possessing even a modicum of common sense will not endorse the actions of the person who attacked those eight innocent people just as we have constantly denounced the actions of Hamas – without any reservations – against defenseless civilians and non-combatants on October 7th.
However, the narrative regarding this recent attack in America becomes more repugnant as soon as the genocidal Netanyahu, who has been perpetrating a far more heinous crime for over a year, opens his mouth and portrays himself as one who enjoins good and forbids evil, while still carrying on with crimes much greater than the one committed against those eight innocent people in America. No one has articulated this matter more clearly or powerfully than Prince Turki Al-Faisal in his remarks regarding both Hamas and Netanyahu’s administration. You may listen to it here:

Verily! Allah will not change the condition of a people as long as they do not change what is in themselves. [Al-Rad: 11]
Imam Ibn Al-Qayyim, may Allah have mercy upon him, said: The wording of this verse shows that Allah) does not remove His blessings which He bestowed upon His servants until they (abandon) obedience to Him and disobey Him. [1]
And let those who oppose the Messenger’s (Muhammad) commandment (i.e. his Sunnah legal ways, orders, acts of worship, statements, etc.) beware, lest some Fitnah (disbelief, trials, afflictions, earthquakes, killing, overpowered by a tyrant, etc.) befall them or a painful torment be inflicted on them. [Al-Nur 63]
The complainer said:
We were ravaged by merciless conquests, unjust enslavement, and imperial deceit. Whenever a noble leader arose from our ranks to champion the unwavering struggle for our liberation from the mental bondage imposed upon us, the signs of this mental subjugation favour the oppressor, despite the physical shackles of slavery having long since vanished. Yet, the chains of our minds continue to imprison many; not through the savagery of colonialism, but through the weight of debt; not with lashes, but via multinational corporations; not by enforcing compliance through colonial statutes, but through economic coercion, cultural hegemony that seeks to alter Islamic tenets, and efforts to suppress the truth. Those who dare to confront this injustice are met with assassination, conspiracy, or exile, orchestrated by foreign agents and their local collaborators – the betrayers among us.
We stand against our rulers in defense of the outsider, and in this endeavour, we acknowledge our failure to rebuild despite our suffering. We are not turning to the divine texts of the Qur’an and Sunnah for wisdom, even as we endure wounds, nor are we seeking solidarity in all that is beloved to Allah, while resolutely striving to liberate ourselves from oppression. Instead of demanding fairness, fair partnership, and mutual exchange, we find ourselves reliant on handouts.
Those who have been oppressing us did not achieve dominance through persuasion or a superior belief system; rather, it was our separation from the Qur’an and Sunnah that allowed them to plunder our resources and invade our territories. This has led to our demoralisation, destabilisation, discrediting, and the destruction of all our efforts. What they fear most is our unity on the path of the Salaf. They understand that through this unity, the world they aspire to create to keep us subservient will no longer be a comfortable haven for them, and they will be unable to exploit us as intermediaries and brokers of their interests at the cost of our well-being. Anyone who critically expresses concern regarding the neocolonial oppressor and take bold steps for self-determination is labeled a radical and deemed a dangerous anti-Western agitator. In this manner, they monopolisze narratives, utilisng distortions that are clouded by falsehoods. They portray us as beings devoid of humanity, savages existing outside the bounds of civilization, wretches in need of salvation, famished individuals, afflicted by disease, chaos, terror, devoid of hope, success, development, and honor.
Despite the abundance of resources on our continent, we remain the most impoverished. Our land is rich in cobalt, essential for the functioning of cell phones and electric vehicles. This cobalt is sourced from our continent, yet the majority of our population cannot afford such devices. Additionally, our continent boasts extensive reserves of platinum, crucial for electronic gadgets and medical implants. However, even with this platinum originating from our land, we find ourselves paralyzed by rampant unemployment. Our continent is also rich in gold, yet our people are mired in poverty. Furthermore, we possess diamonds that are extracted by oppressors, while our miners struggle to survive on meager wages. Lastly, our continent is endowed with vast quantities of uranium, which powers the nuclear plants of our oppressors and illuminates their cities, while our villages remain shrouded in darkness. [End of quote]
Following this agonising complaint, the reply consisted solely of the particulars outlined in the article below: https://abukhadeejah.com/state-of-ummah-causes-of-weakness-means-of-rectification-ebook/
Kind words and forgiving of faults are better than Sadaqah (charity) followed by injury. And Allah is Rich (Free of all wants) and He is Most-Forbearing. [Al-Baqarah. 263]
Imam Ibn Al-Qayyim, may Allah have mercy upon him, stated:
Allah informed us that kind speech- which all hearts recognise and do not reject; and forgiveness- to pardon the one who treated you badly, are better than charity that is followed by harm. Kind speech is good treatment and charity through speech; and forgiveness is good treatment by way of refraining from retaliation and holding someone responsible. These are two types of good treatments. As for charity followed by harm, it is a good deed that is followed by its nullifier, and there is no doubt that two good deeds are better than a good dead that is nullified. This also includes the forgiveness shown by the person when he encounters some harm and harsh behaviour from the one who he could not fulfil his request; therefore, showing forgiveness to him would be better than giving him charity and then harming him. Speaking kindly to him, refraining (from retaliation) and forgiving him is better for you than giving him charity and then harming him.
Then Allah, The Most High, ended this verse with the mention of two of His Attributes which are suitable for mention in this affair, saying: [وَٱللَّهُ غَنِىٌّ حَلِيمٌ۬- and He is Most-Forbearing]. Indeed, Allah is not in need of you and nothing (from the benefits of) your charity reaches him, rather all the abundant good in this charity and its benefits returns to you and not to Allah [Glorified and Exalted be He]. Therefore, how can one flaunt through his spending and causes harm while Allah is completely not in need of it and everything else besides it. In addition to this, Allah is forbearing because He does not hasten punishment against the one who flaunts. Allah is completely free from need in every way and He is the One described as One with forbearance, the one who overlooks and forgives, alongside the fact that He bestows His vast favours and ample gifts; then how can one of you harm another person by flaunting and offending, even though what you give is little, and you are weak and poor (in the sight of Allah). Then Allah said:
O you who believe! Do not render in vain your Sadaqah (charity) by reminders of your generosity or by injury, like him who spends his wealth to be seen of men, and he does not believe in Allah, nor in the Last Day. His likeness is the likeness of a smooth rock on which is a little dust; on it falls heavy rain which leaves it bare. They are not able to do anything with what they have earned. And Allah does not guide the disbelieving people. [Al-Baqarah 264]
This spender, whose spending has been nullified, is likened to a Safwaan – a rock with a smooth, flat, and slippery surface and with dust on it. Then heavy rain falls on it, washing away the dust and leaving it bare, devoid of any vegetation or growth. This is one of the finest and most profound parables because it draws a parallel between the heart of such a spender, who flaunts and his spending is devoid of belief in Allah and the Last Day, to the rock itself, symbolising hardness, rigidity, and lack of benefit. It demonstrates the impact of charity represented by the fine dust on the rock, and the heavy rain that washes it away, mirroring the nullification and removal of the spender’s charity. Consequently, the spender is unable to reap any rewards from his charity, as it has been nullified and removed.
Another perspective on this is that (even though) someone spends for something other than the sake of Allah, it may seem like they have performed a deed that will be rewarded. So, it seems as if it is made to grow like the grain that is sown in fertile soil and it grows seven ears, and each era has a hundred grains. However, hidden behind this spending there is something that prevents it from gaining anything, just like a rock hidden beneath the soil that stops seeds from sprouting and growing. [An Excerpt from ‘Tareeq Al-Hijratayn. pages 452-454]
The strategy employed by the genocidal Netanyahu and some of his associates involves a constant denial of the starvation occurring in Gaza, which is one of his cruel tactics. When even his allies ramp up their calls for a ceasefire and for sufficient aid to be allowed into Gaza or other areas, a new issue arises. As soon as the Palestinians hear that aid is available at a specific location, they immediately set out in droves to that site. This creates the first hurdle in the aid distribution process, as a starving, terrified, and desperate populace rushes to seize as many supplies as they can. Consequently, this desperation and instinct for survival lead to chaos during the distribution, particularly when aid is left in an area where tens of thousands of people converge to grab whatever they can.
Undoubtedly, this method of distributing aid in such an environment and under these conditions resembles tossing chicken feed to a flock of chickens. Consequently, those who can snatch up more than others will do so, leaving some without their rightful portion. Furthermore, the amount of aid available may be insufficient due to limitations imposed by Netanyahu’s Zionist army. This orchestrated or forced chaos typically does not arise when aid is distributed by organizations independent of Netanyahu’s administration, as it is widely recognized that his Zionist government tends to exploit essential resources while continuing its genocidal actions.
How can one possibly anticipate that aid will be allocated efficiently when every individual in Gaza is deemed a target by the Zionist military, including civil servants? Given that this scenario has become the standard whenever the Zionists meddle with aid distribution, they aim to achieve two objectives simultaneously: they often rationalise their obstruction of food supplies by asserting that the aid would benefit Hamas, thus providing them with a pretext to starve the Palestinians and accomplish their objective of displacing them from Gaza. Concurrently, their media propaganda apparatus, along with numerous supportive writers on websites, Twitter, and various social media platforms, employs diverse arguments to reinforce the notion that Netanyahu’s administration bears no responsibility, which is typically the position of these writers unless they encounter situations where there is no room to obscure the truth or distort its reality.
Every discerning observer understands that the objective of numerous writers within the Zionist Media, along with their supporters, is to manipulate the narrative by utilising various writers who will reiterate the same claims, intertwining some truths with fabrications, exaggerations, misrepresentations, and emotional appeals. This strategy serves to amplify their assertions, undermine the rights of Palestinians, invoke anti-Semitism where it is unjustified, blur the lines of the discourse, distort its realities, and provide cover for the genocidal Netanyahu to perpetuate the slaughter of Palestinians under the pretense of self-defense and retaliation. Those who dare to question this and advocate for an immediate cessation of the killings are labeled as anti-Semites, self-hating Jews, or terrorist sympathizers, yet the slaughter, starvation, and genocide continue unabated. Many Jews, Christians, and others oppose this brutality simply because it is considered repugnant by anyone possessing a modicum of decency, justice, mercy, and common sense.
It is unequivocal that anyone possessing even a modicum of common sense cannot endorse the actions executed by Hamas against defenseless civilians and non-combatants on October 7th. Nevertheless, there can be no justification for Netanyahu’s genocidal measures and the starvation inflicted upon a populace he aims to displace or further subjugate. No one has articulated this matter more clearly or powerfully than Prince Turki Al-Faisal in his remarks regarding both Hamas and Netanyahu’s administration. You may listen to it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3-cWyFcK5w
Any distribution of aid overseen by Netanyahu’s administration, or any organisation that is affiliated with them, is merely a pretentious and deceptive exhibition of compassion, simultaneously inflicting harm and devastation. Allah is all aware of their intentions. Allah said:
And never think that Allah is unaware of what the wrongdoers do. He only delays them for a Day (i.e. the Day of Judgement) when eyes will stare [in horror]. (They will be) hastening forward with necks outstretched, their heads raised up (towards the sky), their gaze returning not towards them and their hearts empty (from thinking because of extreme fear). [Ibrahim 42-43]
It used to be said that whoever perpetrates these three acts will be haunted by them:
Rebellion against Allah’s commandments
Allah [The Most High] said:
يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ إِنَّمَا بَغْيُكُمْ عَلَىٰ أَنْفُسِكُمْ
O mankind! Your rebellion (disobedience to Allah) is only against your ownselves. [Yunus 23]
Evil plotting
Allah [The Most High] said:
وَلَا يَحِيقُ الْمَكْرُ السَّيِّئُ إِلَّا بِأَهْلِهِ
But the evil plot encompasses only him who makes it. [Faatir: 43]
Breaking pledges
Allah [The Most High] said:
فَمَنْ نَكَثَ فَإِنَّمَا يَنْكُثُ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِ
Then whosoever breaks his pledge only breaks it to his own harm.[Al-Fath: 10]
And I did not create the Jinn and Men except to worship Me. I desire not from them any provision, and nor do I desire that they feed Me. (On the contrary), it is Allāh who is the Great Provider, the possessor of mighty strength. [1]
Have you come across this continent that the French neocolonialists deem impoverished, yet they refuse to permit its people to manage their own resources?! This continent is so rich that even after 600 years of exploitation, its wealth remains abundant. It is the second largest continent globally, following Asia, with a total land area of approximately 30.37 million square kilometers, encompassing 20 percent of the Earth’s total land area. This landmass surpasses the combined size of China, the USA, India, Japan, and all of Europe. It boasts the highest number of countries, totaling 54, and ranks second in arable land, only behind Asia. However, from December to March each year, farming capabilities in some regions of Asia diminish significantly, as 30 to 40 percent of its lands are blanketed in snow. In contrast, this continent has less than 1 percent of its land area affected by snow, and sunlight is predominantly consistent throughout the year, ensuring solar energy is perpetually available when required.
The Sahara Desert, spanning 9.2 million square kilometers, holds the title of the world’s largest hot desert. The Congo Rainforest is the second largest rainforest globally, following the Amazon in Brazil. The Nile River, at a length of 6,650 kilometers, is recognised as the longest river in the world. Allah has blessed this continent with a plethora of natural resources, including gold, diamonds, copper, platinum, cocoa, oil and gas, uranium, along with untapped resources. Furthermore, this continent is home to a wide array of diverse medicinal herbs and boasts the youngest populations, with 40 to 45 percent averaging an age of 19 years. This short account pertains solely to one continent; however, what of the others that are also rich in resources? Thus, poverty is not merely the lack of resources. Rather, the core issue lies in the actions of humanity, encompassing both the oppressed and the oppressor.
Evil (sins and disobedience of Allah, etc.) has appeared on land and sea because of what the hands of men have earned. Al-Rum. 41]
Imam Ibn Al-Qayyim, may Allah have mercy upon him, said:
This verse was revealed regarding the circumstances of the world, the relationship between it and the events that occur. You see how the occurrence of those evil actions and defects (of the people) affects the harvest, vegetation and the animals in every era, and the manner in which those evils necessitate other evils. And whenever the people initiate oppression and wickedness, their Lord, The Blessed and Most High, brings about- from those evils and defects – deficiencies and harm in their nourishments, fruits, atmospheres, bodies, outward appearances and manners, as a justification for their deeds, acts of oppression and wickedness. The majority of the illnesses and the general evils are remnants of the punishment afflicted upon the people of the previous nations; then there remained from that what remains, as a surprise punishment against those who remain upon the (evil) deeds of those previous nations. This is a just judgement and decree. [2]
Enjoin you Al-Birr (piety and righteousness and each and every act of obedience to Allah) on the people and you forget (to practise it) yourselves, while you recite the Scripture [the Taurat (Torah)]! Have you then no sense? [Al-Baqarah 44]
The title of Seth’s article may suggest to the unsuspecting readers that there are no significant issues within the ranks of the Zionists. There is no doubt that the Hoothiies and other proponents of Bidah manipulate the youth with their Bidah and superstitions. Likewise, it is undeniable that there are Zionists who indoctrinate their young people through the ideology of Zionism. In the two links that will be provided, there are statements and positions that vividly demonstrate the extremism of certain individuals raised under the ideology of the Zionists. Seth must recognise this as extremism; however, we typically do not anticipate him or others to acknowledge it due to their double standards, biased opinions, and a pronounced sense of self-entitlement. The Zionist extremists mentioned in the links include Yair Netanyahu, the son of Netanyahu, Eli Yishai, Bezalel Smotrich, Tally Gotliv, Itamar Ben Gvir, Arieh King, and the creators of “The Friendship Song.” Additionally, the aforementioned links showcase examples of extremism from the Houthis, the Khawarij, and the far-right. Read:
Regarding Netanyahu, his genocidal remarks are also well-known. Read here: https://abuiyaad.com/a/amalekite-genocide-doctrine-gaza
Furthermore, anyone with a shred of common sense cannot support the actions taken by Hamas against unarmed civilians and non-combatants on October 7th. There has been no clearer or stronger explanation of this issue than the statements made by Prince Turki Al-Faisal concerning both Hamas and Netanyahu’s government. You can listen to it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3-cWyFcK5w
Therefore, O Seth J Frantzman! Tidy up your backyard as well!
Every careful observer knows that the aim of many in the Zionist Media and their blind followers aim to shape the narrative by employing various writers who will echo the same assertions, blending some truths with falsehoods, exaggerations, misrepresentations, and emotional appeals until they inflate their claims, undermine the rights of Palestinians, invoke anti-Semitism where it is unwarranted, obscure the lines of the discussion, distort its realities, and buy time for the genocidal Netanyahu to continue the slaughter of Palestinians under the guise of self-defense and retaliation. No rational individual supports the killing of civilians and non-combatants, whether they are Jewish or non-Jewish, so why has it become acceptable to persist in the massacre of Palestinians in the pursuit of Hamas?! Anyone who questions this and calls for an immediate halt to the killings is branded an anti-Semite, a self-hating Jew, or a terrorist sympathizer, yet the slaughter, starvation, and genocide persist. Many Jews, Christians, and others stand against this cruelty simply because it is deemed abhorrent by anyone with a shred of decency, justice, mercy, and common sense.
In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy
Imam Muhammad Ibn Abdil-Wahhab, may Allah have mercy upon him, said: “They (i.e. the pre-Islamic people of ignorance) carried out worship by whistling and clapping their hands”.
Al-Allamah Salih Al-Fawzan, may Allah preserve him, said:
From the affairs (i.e. practices) of the pre-Islamic era of ignorance which Allah’s Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, opposed was that they carried out worship – seeking closeness to Allah- through whistling and clapping. Allah, The Most High said:
And their prayer at the House (Ka’bah) was nothing but whistling and clapping of hands [Al-Anfal 35]
Meaning, the polytheists did not seek closeness to Allah at the noble kabah, except through whistling and clapping. Al-Mukaa means whistling and Tasdeeyah means clapping with the two hands and palms. They used to do this at the House of Allah and called it prayer- seeking nearness to Allah, Glorified and Exalted be He, by through it. This is from the [matters] that the devils among mankind and jinn made fair seeming to them. This is because worship cannot be (carried out) except through that which Allah has legislated; it is Tawqeefiyyah (i.e. established based on the texts of the Shariah). A person should not initiate anything (i.e. acts of worship) or take it from someone else, while it is not legislated by Allah to be established as worship, nor does it have any origin in the Islamic legislation. And from this, the prohibition of these two traits -whistling and clapping- can be established, even if a person does not intend to perform worship through them, because there is resemblance to the polytheists in that.
And (with regards) to clapping, the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, specifically permitted it for the women when there is a need, such as informing the Imam (i.e. by clapping) if he makes a mistake in the prayer. And that is because of the Fitna – if men are present- that may take place from her voice. It is neither permissible for a man to imitate the unbelievers nor a women by way of clapping. If it the case that clapping is not permissible for men out of necessity with regards to informing the Imam when he makes a mistake in the prayer, rather he informs the Imam by way of Tasbeeh [i.e. saying سبحان الله], then it not being allowed when there is no necessity is even a stronger reason. In this there is rebuttal against those men who whistle in the gatherings in resemblance to the disbelievers.
Source: An Excerpt from Sharh Masaa’il Al-Jaahiliyyah. Page:104-105. Slightly paraphrased
Woe to Al-Mutaffifin [those who give less in measure and weight (decrease the rights of others)], those who, when they have to receive by measure from men, demand full measure, and when they have to give by measure or weight to men, give less than due. Think they not that they will be resurrected (for reckoning), on a Great Day, the Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of the ‘Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists)? [Surah Al-Mutaffifeen]
Allah explained who the Mutaffifeen are in his statement: [ٱلَّذِينَ إِذَا ٱكۡتَالُواْ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ يَسۡتَوۡفُونَ – Those who, when they have to receive by measure from people, demand full measure] -Meaning, they take from them in full what is established to be their due and demand in full without any loss.
[وَإِذَا كَالُوهُمۡ أَو وَّزَنُوهُمۡ يُخۡسِرُونَ – And when they have to give by measure or weight to people, give less than what is due] -Meaning, when they give the people what they are entitled to by way of measure or weight, they give them less- either by giving short measure or weight, or by not giving the full measure or weight, or by not filling the measuring or weighing equipment and what is similar that. This is tantamount to stealing the people’s wealth and not being fair to them. If this is the threat of divine vengeance against those who give short measure and short weight, then those who take people’s wealth by force or by stealing are more deserving of this threat than those who give short measure and short weight.
This noble Aayah shows that just as a person takes from the people what he is entitled to, it is also obligated on him to give them everything they are entitled to – whether related to wealth or mutual dealings; rather included in the generality of this Aayah are proofs and statements, because indeed what usually takes place between those engaged in argumentation and discussion is that each of them is eager to establish his proofs, therefore, it is obligated on a person also to make known the proofs possessed by the other person and examine the proofs of the other person just as he examines his own proofs. In relation to this affair, the justice of a person is known as opposed to whether he is afflicted with bigotry, his humility as opposed to being haughty, his common sense as opposed to foolish behaviour. We ask Allah bestow on us every good.
Then Allah issued a threat to those who give short measure, stated with amazement regarding their state of affairs and their persistence upon what they are doing. Allah said: [أَلَا يَظُنُّ أُوْلَـٰٓٮِٕكَ أَنَّہُم مَّبۡعُوثُونَ – Think they not that they will be resurrected (for reckoning), on a Great Day, the Day when (all) mankind will stand before the Lord of all that exists – Meaning, what makes them dare to give short measure is because they do not believe in the Last Day, otherwise had they believed in it and known that they will stand before Allah to give account – whether related to something small or big, they would stopped and repent. [Tafsir As-Sadi]
The vast majority of what are referred to as Francophone African nations were informed that a condition of their quest for independence was the necessity to continue utilizing a currency established by their former colonizer, which in turn undermines their sovereignty. For instance, the French colonial authorities created two distinct currencies for their former colonies: the XAF for Central Africa and the CFA for West Africa. The deception surrounding these currencies lay in their pegging to the French Franc, which was the previous currency and has now transitioned to the Euro. Furthermore, these fabricated currencies for the African nations were also promised guaranteed convertibility to the French Franc at a predetermined rate. Consequently, for this currency to yield profits for the French government, all these so-called Francophone countries were mandated to deposit 65% of their foreign reserves with the French central bank. Thus, while France was ostensibly granting independence, these nations were compelled to utilize a currency crafted by their former colonial ruler for trade, alongside the fact that the colonial power required 65% of all foreign earnings from the colonized to be retained in the reserves of the colonial master, enabling him to provide the colonized with a fixed foreign exchange rate. Therefore, whenever the colonial master engaged in trade with the ex-colonies, 65% of the earnings that were meant for these African nations would instead be retained within the French treasury. As a result, the colonial master was appropriating the majority of the foreign exchange earnings of others, holding onto 65% until 2005, when this percentage was reduced to 50%.
Furthermore, in the realm of international trade, these nations found themselves unable to engage in buying or selling on the global market without the intervention of the French government, which maintained control over their reserves. Their priority was to favour France for every raw material produced within their borders before considering trade with any other nation. Consequently, the colonial powers amassed billions and trillions by seizing the profits of their former colonies. This is how the colonial rulers profited immensely from the riches of the oppressed, only to label them as impoverished and ungrateful. Additionally, from this wealth that was taken and plundered under the guise of independence agreements, the colonial powers extend loans to their own citizens while imposing interest charges. From this appropriated wealth, they provide loans with Riba to the very nations who rightfully own the wealth. Moreover, whenever these nations require foreign exchange, they are compelled to navigate through the French treasury, which incurs additional fees.
Can anyone point to a single nation that Muslims conquered and treated its inhabitants in such a manner? It is crucial that we do not interpret discussions surrounding these issues as mere nationalism; rather, they represent a pursuit of justice and fairness. On the other hand, we should not frame this issue as one of pan-Africanism, for we are Muslims striving to adhere to the path of the righteous predecessors. Muslims did not establish oppressive systems to exploit and plunder the resources of the indigenous people; instead, they engaged in fair trade. Colonialism was nothing but what our own hands earned, thus we must return to repentance. Read:

In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.
While Palestinians are massacred under the guise of self-defense, Netanyahu quotes abrogated and perverted Scripture as follows: “There is a time for peace and a time for war. Now is the time for war.”
Indeed, some American Evangelists and Christian Zionists are enthralled by this bogus narrative, and their beliefs about Armageddon only fuel their desire to support Netanyahu. As a secular politician, Netanyahu is adept at appealing to and winning over the most gullible and misguided Evangelists and Christian Zionists. He also knows how to use a fabricated religious agenda to deflect criticism of his problems and enhance his reputation both domestically and internationally. In addition some American evangelical groups believe that Netanyahu’s administration is besieged by biblical adversaries, with Magog representing Russia and Persia representing Iran.
They also believe that six of the “seven plagues” that would precede the second coming have already occurred, and that the Earth should be prepared for the seventh, Armageddon, which will occur in the region including Israel and Palestine. As a result, this concept has been used by many to legitimise the colonisation and occupation of Palestinian land for nearly 75 years. It provides an explanation for the thousands of civilian deaths, the senseless killing of infants and young children, the killing of expectant mothers and their unborn children, the targeting of ambulances carrying injured people, the targeting of schools, hospitals, and refugee camps, and the cutting off of basic services like fuel, electricity, water, and internet access. Numerous unarmed people are driven from their homes, and in the West Bank, Palestinians are imprisoned and illegal settlers are complicit in the murder of defenseless people. It explains the thousands of fatalities, missing people, and people who may have been buried alive or trapped under the debris, and the humanitarian crisis, which has reached horrifying proportions, the tens of thousands of injured, and the strain on the medical facilities.
Then, to add insult to injury, some in the mainstream Western media consistently seek to insult our intelligence by claiming that the Zionists are doing their best to avoid civilian casualties, or they subtly identify Hamas as the primary reason for the Zionists’ reprisal. Yes, every rational person recognises that Hamas shares a big responsibility for the murder and kidnap of some innocent citizens of the Zionist state, and they deserve strong condemnation; however, the Netanyahu deserves a harsher condemnation due to his recent war crimes. This is to be expected when political and religious figureheads cooperate to use twisted, abrogated, and fabricated texts – in the name of religion – to justify their positions, beliefs, and behaviours.
Prince Turki Al-Faisal, may Allah preserve him, has elucidated this issue in a manner that no Zionist can contest. Listen below:
At present, even Netanyahu’s allies are beginning to disapprove of his callous behaviour. Read below:
Thus, it is important to understand that the narrative about Armageddon, wars and strife based on texts cited by America Evangelists are not to be given any consideration; rather, this matter is to be determined based on the authentic texts that have been transmitted in infallible final divine revelation [The Qur’an and authentic Sunnah] as comprehended and applied by the Sahabah.
Quote: Allah’s Messenger and what has been revealed to him are the authorities one must study in order to understand the subject of trials and tribulations before the end of time. As a result, one cannot return to the following matters: the narrations of the people of the (abrogated) Scriptures, opinions and dreams, weak and false narrations, analogy, and political, economic, or socialist analysis. That is because the narrations about the trials and tribulations, the signs of the Hour, and the strife that will occur are from the (affairs) of the Religion, and the Religion is Tawqeefee (i.e. its source can only be established from the divine texts of the Qur’an and the authentic Sunnah). So, whatever is reported from the Prophet with authentic chains of transmission about (upcoming events) is necessary for a Muslim to believe, whether it appeals to the intellect or not, and this is the reality of one’s testimony that Muhammad is Allah’s Messenger.
Allah (The Most High) said:
وَمَا يَنْطِقُ عَنِ الْهَوَىٰ
إِنْ هُوَ إِلَّا وَحْيٌ يُوحَىٰ
Nor does he (Muhammad) speak of (his own) desire. It is only an Inspiration that is inspired.
[Surah an-Najm. Ayah 3]
And Allah (The Most High) said:
وَمَا آتَاكُمُ الرَّسُولُ فَخُذُوهُ وَمَا نَهَاكُمْ عَنْهُ فَانْتَهُو
And whatsoever the Messenger (Muhammad) gives you, take it, and whatsoever he forbids you, abstain (from it)].[Surah Al-Hashr. Ayah 7]
Umar [may Allah be pleased with him] reported: One day while we were sitting with Allah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] there appeared before us a man whose clothes were exceedingly white and whose hair was exceedingly black; no signs of journeying were to be seen on him and none of us knew him. He walked up and sat down by the prophet. Resting his knees against his and placing the palms of his hands on his thighs, he said: “O Muhammad, tell me about Islam”. The messenger of Allah said: “Islam is to testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah, to perform the prayers, to pay the zakat, to fast in Ramadan, and to make the pilgrimage to the House if you are able to do so.” He said: “You have spoken rightly’’ And we were amazed at him asking him and saying that he had spoken rightly. He said: “Then tell me about Iman.”He said: ”It is to believe in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, and the Last Day, and to believe in divine destiny, both the good and the evil thereof.” He said: “You have spoken rightly”. He said: “Then tell me about Ihsan.” He said: “It is to worship Allah as though you are seeing Him, and while you see Him not yet truly He sees you”. He said: “Then tell me about the Hour”. He said: “The one questioned about it knows no better than the questioner.” He said: “Then tell me about its signs.” He said: “That the slave-girl will give birth to her mistress and that you will see the barefooted, naked, destitute herdsman competing in constructing lofty buildings.” Then he took himself off and I stayed for a time. Then he said: “O Umar, do you know who the questioner was?” I said: “Allah and His messenger know best”. He said: “He was Gibreel (Gabriel), who came to you to teach you your religion”. [Reported by Muslim. Kitaab al-Eemaan. Chapter: Imaan, Islaam and Ihsaan. Hadeeth Number: 8]
The testimony in this hadeeth is the statement of the Prophet, “He was Gibreel, who came to you to teach you your religion”. Therefore, the principle in the preceding hadeeth is that the Prophet asked a question concerning the Hour and its circumstances, and he established that it is something contained in religion. The trials and tribulations, circumstances, and strife associated with the (portents) of the Hour are from the religion, and it is not for anybody to speak about it based on their own (opinions, views, analysis, interpretations, etc.).” [1]
Abu Hurairah [may Allaah be pleased with him] reported that Allah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said, “The Hour will not be established till two big groups fight each other whereupon there will be a great number of casualties on both sides and they will be following one and the same path, till about thirty Dajjals (liars) appear and each one of them will claim that he is Allah’s Messenger, till religious knowledge is taken away (by the death of Religious scholars), earthquakes will increase in number; time will pass quickly, afflictions will appear, Al-Harj, (i.e., killing) will increase, till wealth will be in abundance – so abundant that a wealthy person will worry lest nobody should accept his Zakat, and whenever he will present it to someone, that person (to whom it will be offered) will say, ‘I am not in need of it, till the people compete with one another in constructing high buildings, till a man when passing by a grave of someone will say, ‘Would that I were in his place’ and till the sun rises from the West. So when the sun will rise and the people will see it (rising from the West) they will all believe (accept Islam) but that will be the time when: (as Allah said) [لاَ يَنْفَعُ نَفْسًا إِيمَانُهَا لَمْ تَكُنْ آمَنَتْ مِنْ قَبْلُ، أَوْ كَسَبَتْ فِي إِيمَانِهَا خَيْرًا – no good will it do to a person to believe then, if he believed not before, nor earned good (by performing deeds of righteousness) through his Faith]. And the Hour will be established while two men spreading a garment in front of them but they will not be able to sell it, nor fold it up, and Hour will be established when a man has milked his she-camel and has taken away the milk but he will not be able to drink it, and Hour will be established before a man repairing a tank (for his livestock) is able to water (his animals) in it, and Hour will be established when a person has raised a morsel (of food) to his mouth but will not be able to eat it.” [Saheeh Al-Bukhaari. Hadeeth Number 7121]
Abu Zaid -Amr Bin Akhtab [may Allaah be pleased with him] reported: Allah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] led us in the dawn prayer and then mounted the pulpit and addressed us until it was (time for the) noon prayer. He then came down the pulpit and observed prayer and then again mounted the pulpit and again addressed us until it was time for the ‘Asr prayer. He then again came down and observed the prayer and again mounted the pulpit and addressed us until the sun was set and he informed (us about) everything (pertaining to turmoil) that lay hidden in the past and what lies in (the womb) of) the future and the most learned amongst us is one who remembers them well. [ Saheeh Muslim 2892]
Imaam Muslim said: Chapter: The Conquest Of Constantinople, The Emergence Of The Dajjal And The Descent Of ‘Isa Bin Maryam [peace be upon him]: Abu Hurairah [may Allah be pleased with him] reported that Allah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said: 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 distributing the spoils of war (amongst themselves) after hanging their swords by the olive trees, 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). [Saheeh Muslim. 2897]
Abu Hurairah [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated that Allah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said, “By Allah in Whose Hands my soul is, son of Mary (Jesus) will shortly descend amongst you people (Muslims) as a just ruler and will break the Cross and kill the pig and abolish the Jizya (a tax taken from the non-Muslims, who are in the protection, of the Muslim government). Then there will be an abundance of money and nobody will accept charitable gifts”. [Saheeh Al-Bukhaari 2222]
Abu Hurairah [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated that Allah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said, “What would you do when the son of Mary would descend amongst you and would lead you as one amongst you? Ibn Abi Dhi’b on the authority of Abu Huraira narrated: Your leader amongst you. Ibn Abi Dhi’b said: Do you know what the words:” He would lead as one amongst you” mean? I said: Explain these to me. He said: He would lead you according to the Book of your: Lord (hallowed be He and most exalted) and the Sunnah of your Messenger”. [Saheeh Muslim 155]
Hudhaifah [may Allah be pleased with him] reported that Allah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] stood before us one day and he did not leave anything unsaid (that he had to say) at that very spot which would happen (in the shape of turmoil) up to the Last Hour. Those who had to remember them preserved them in their minds and those who could not remember them forgot them. My friends knew them and there are certain things that slip out of my mind, but I recapitulate them when anyone makes a mention of them just as a person is lost from one’s mind but is recalled to him upon seeing his face. [Saheeh Muslim 2891]
Abu Hurairah [may Allah be pleased with him] reported that Allah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said: The Last Hour would not come before the Euphrates uncovers a mountain of gold, for which people would fight. Ninety-nine out of each one hundred would die but every man amongst them would say that perhaps he would be the one who would be saved (and thus possess this gold). [Saheeh Muslim 2894]
And when the Word (of torment) is fulfilled against them, We shall bring out from the earth a beast to them, which will speak to them because mankind believed not with certainty in Our Ayat (Verses of the Qur’an and Prophet Muhammad).
Imam As-Sadi [may Allah have mercy upon him] commented: Meaning, when the time comes for the warning, which Allah has decided; [أَخۡرَجۡنَا لَهُمۡ دَآبَّةً۬ مِّنَ ٱلۡأَرۡضِ – We shall bring out from the earth a beast to them] or one of the earth’s beasts, rather than the heavens. This beast [تُكَلِّمُهُمۡ – will speak to them]; Meaning, it would speak to the people about how they did not believe with certainty in Our (i.e. Allah’s) signs due to a lack of knowledge and certainty in Allah’s signs. So Allah will make this beast appear as one of His amazing signs to manifest to the people what they doubted. This beast is the well-known beast that will appear at the end of time, and it will be one of the (major) signs indicating the approach of the Day of Judgement, as mentioned in many Prophetic narrations. [2]
Abu Umaamah [may Allah be pleased with him] narrated that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “The beast will emerge and strike the people on their noses, then their numbers will increase among you until a man will buy a camel and they will say, ‘Who did you buy it from?’ and he will say, ‘I bought it from one of those with a mark on their noses’”. [Reported by Imaam Ahmad 22362 and declared authentic by Imaam Al Albaanee in As-Sisilah As-Saheehah. Number 322]
Anas [may Allah be pleased with him] reported that Allah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said, “The Hour will not occur until ‘Allah, Allah’ is not said on earth.” [Saheeh Muslim 148]
Abu Hurairah [may Allah be pleased with him] said that Allah’s Messenger [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] said, “When three things appear, faith will not benefit one who has not previously believed or has derived no good from his faith: the rising of the sun in its place of setting, the Dajjal, and the beast of the earth”. [Saheeh Muslim. Number 158]
Shaikh Al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah [may Allah have mercy upon him] as follows: “In the Qur’an and authentic Ahaadeeth there are numerous reports regarding that which will take place in the Dunyah and Aakhirah, and affairs that occurred perfectly after the Prophet [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] spoke about them many years prior to their occurrence, such as his statement: ‘The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Turks; people with small eyes, red faces, and flat noses. Their faces will look like shields coated with leather. The Hour will not be established till you fight with people whose shoes are made of hair. [Saheeh Al-Bukhaari. Number 2928]
Those amongst the Muslims – who saw and fought those Turks when their king Genghis Khan appeared, his children and grandchildren, such as Hulagu Khan and other than him amongst the disbelieving kings- could not describe them better than how the Prophet [peace and blessings of Allah be upon him] described them [i.e. even though he did not meet them]. He stated this 600 years prior to its occurrence. [3]
These authentic narrations transmitted from the final infallible Messenger are enough for anyone who is protected from superstition and conjecture. The events before the last day on Earth as transmitted in the authentic divine texts of the final religion are not based on Hypotheses, rather, anyone who believes this to be the case is a misguided fool. Allah [The Exalted] said:
And of them there are some who listen to you; but We have set veils on their hearts, so they understand it not, and deafness in their ears; if they see every one of the Ayat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) they will not believe therein; to the point that when they come to you to argue with you, the disbelievers say: “These are nothing but tales of the men of old.” [Surah Al-An’aam. Ayah 25]
O Allah! Rectify my religion for me, which is the safeguard of my affairs; rectify my worldly [affairs], wherein is my livelihood; and rectify my Afterlife to which is my return, and make life for me (as a means of) increase in every good and make death for me as a rest from every evil.

In The Name of Allah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.
Netanyahu, your assertion of moral superiority has been rejected once more because of your failure to recognize these texts and your disregard for human life
And those who invoke not any other ilah (god) along with Allah, nor kill such life as Allah has forbidden, except for just cause, nor commit illegal sexual intercourse and whoever does this shall receive the punishment. The torment will be doubled to him on the Day of Resurrection, and he will abide therein in disgrace; Except those who repent and believe (in Islamic Monotheism), and do righteous deeds, for those, Allah will change their sins into good deeds, and Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. [Al-Furqan. 68-70]
And whoever kills a believer intentionally, his recompense is Hell to abide therein, and the Wrath and the Curse of Allah are upon him, and a great punishment is prepared for him]. [Al-Nisaa. 93]
If anyone killed a person not in retaliation of murder, or (and) to spread mischief in the land – it would be as if he killed all mankind, and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind. [Al-Maa’idah. 32]
Imam As-Sadi, may Allah have mercy upon him, said:
If a person is bold enough to kill someone who does not deserve to be killed, then this implies that he does make a distinction between the one He killed and other than him; rather he would commit this act whenever his evil calls him to that. Therefore, his bold attitude that led him to kill is as if he has killed all humankind. On the other hand, if a person saves a life and does not kill – whilst his soul calls him to do so – due to fear of Allaah, then this is as if he has saved the lives of all humankind, because the fear of Allaah he possesses stops him killing one who does not deserve to be killed. [Tafsir As-Sadi]
Abdullah Bin Mas’ud, may Allah be pleased with him, said that Allah’s Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said, “The first (thing) that will be decided among people on the Day of Judgment will pertain to bloodshed”. [Sahih Muslim. 1678]
Imam An-Nawawi, may Allah have mercy upon him, said,” This hadith shows the seriousness of bloodshed and that it will be the first thing that will be judged between people on the Day of Resurrection because of its greatness and extreme danger. This hadith does not contradict the well-known hadith in the Sunan that “The first thing a person will be questioned about is the prayer”, because this hadith is regarding a matter between Allah and the person, whereas the first hadith (i.e. judgement in matters related to bloodshed) is between the people”. [Sharh Sahih Muslim. 11/139]
The Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said, “The termination of the world means less to Allah than the killing of a Muslim (i.e. without right)”. [Sahih Al-Jaami 9208]
Amr Ibn Al-Hamiq, may Allah be pleased with him, reported that Allah’s Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said, “Whenever a man promises safety for another man’s life and then kills him, I disavow myself from him even if the victim was an unbeliever”. [Sahih Al-Jami 6103]
Abdullah Bin Amr, may Allah be pleased with him, said that the Prophet, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said, “Whoever killed a Mu’ahid (a non-Muslim granted the pledge of protection by the Muslims) shall not smell the fragrance of Paradise though its fragrance can be smelt at a distance of forty years (of traveling)”. [Sahih al-Bukhari 6914]
Uqbah Ibn Aamir, may Allah be pleased with him, reported that Allah’s Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said, “Whoever meets Allah whilst neither associating anything with Him nor spilling sacred blood will enter Paradise”. [Silsilah As-Sahihah 2923]
The people said to Jundub, may Allah be pleased with him], “Advise us”. He said, “The first thing of the human body to putrefy is the abdomen, so he who can eat nothing but good food [halaal and earned lawfully] should do so, and he who does as much as he can that nothing intervenes between him and paradise by not shedding even a handful of blood [i.e. unlawful killing], should do so”. [Sahih Al-Bukhari 7152]
A man wrote to Ibn Umar, may Allaah be pleased with him and his father, and asked him to write down all knowledge for him; so he replied to him, saying, “Indeed, knowledge is plentiful, but if you are able to meet Allah whilst not shedding people’s blood, not taking their wealth (unlawfully) and violating their honour, then do so”. [Siyar A’lam An-Nubula 3/222]
