The Settling of Tawheed In This Life May 29, 2008
Posted by Ghuraba in : Uncategorized , trackback“…While living in Afghanistan, I have realized that Tawhid
cannot penetrate into the soul of the human being, nor will
it intensify and strengthen-the way it does in the fields of
Jihad.
This is the Tawhid, regarding which the Messenger of
ALLAH (sallallahu `alayhe wa sallam) said:
“I was sent before the hour with the sword…” [1]
Why?
“…so that ALLAH is worshipped Alone with no partners
with HIM.”
So: The settling of Tawhid in this world, is done by the
sword…not by reading books, not by studying the books
of ‘Aqidah…
Indeed, the Messenger of ALLAH (sallallahu `alayhe wa sallam)
taught us that Tawhid Al-Uluhiyyah-which was the reason why
he was sent ,so that Tawhid Al-Uluhiyyah can be established
in the people, and on the earth…He taught us that Tawhid
cannot be learned by study lessons…
No, it can only be brought up and raised (through Tarbiyyah)
in the souls, through confrontations in battles, and events which
take place from stances taken in the face of the Tawaghit
through sacrifices which the soul of the human puts forth…
Every time the soul of a human sacrifices something for this
Din-this Din will open up its subtle beauties for him, and it will
unveil its treasures for him.
Sayyid Qutb (rahimahuAllah) said:
“Verily, this Din, does not reveal its hidden beauties to a
cold sitting “Faqih” who does not struggle to establish the
Din upon this earth. This Din is not a cake which you can
refrigerate in your brain. Rather, this Din is only understood
through struggling to return it into the sphere of life, and
building its society once more.”
Yes…this Din…you will not grasp it, except according to
what you give for its sake…Give for its sake , then it will
give you…the rule of “Give and Take”…
Sacrifice! Then the Lord of the Worlds will open the
doors for you…
Put forth sacrifices for this Din-ALLAH (Most Glorified)
will teach you HIS Ayat and Ahadith…
As a basic rule, you will not be able to understand many
Verses, except when it is a reality you are going through-
a reality of Jihad.”
[Taken from: 'The Tawhid of Action' by Shaikh Abdullah
Azzam (rahimahuAllah)]
[1] Imam Ahmad and Abu Dawud recorded that
`Abdullah bin `Umar (radiya Allahu Anh) said that
the Messenger of ALLAH (sallallahu `alayhe wa sallam) said:
???????? ??????????? ?????? ?????? ?????????? ????? ???????? ????? ???????? ??? ??????? ????? ???????? ??????? ?????? ????? ???????? ???????? ?????????? ??????????? ????? ???? ??????? ???????? ?????? ????????? ???????? ?????? ???????
I was sent with the sword just before the Hour so that ALLAH
be worshipped alone without partners. My provision was
placed under the shadow of my spear, and those who defy
my order were disgraced and humiliated, and he who
imitates a people is one of them.
