Rang-o-Noor (BY SA'DI)

WORSE THAN BEASTS

May Allah be kind to us! The issue of sketches is again agitating the Muslims. Let us try to perceive this issue.

Why Was Delay In Writing

First of all, I read the news on the BBC that competition for drawing disgracing and degrading sketches is in work on the website "Face Book." I was greatly shocked and injured but did not find courage to read the complete news. Then I came to know that the Lahore High Court had banned the "Face Book." This news appealed to the heart. When "YouTube" was banned, I was beside myself with joy but the babbling Interior Minister could not keep silent and blurted out at once, "This ban will be lifted soon." Then it became known that protests are going on in the country. It is good that the Muslims agitate in love for the Messenger . May Allah bless them with good reward! When some companions demanded permission to take part in those protests, I acceded to it happily. The Muslim Ummah should be united on this issue but I do not know full details nor have the courage to know them nor I shall ask anyone about it. A few days ago, I happened to meet the caretaker of the Internet Department. I thought of asking him the details but the heart began to bleed and the eyes got wet. How do I ask, listen and grasp any insolent disgracing remarks in honour of the Holy Prophet ? It is vey difficult rather impossible. When some news of this kind is published in the newspaper, I turn away. I have come to know only that a Britian lady started this depravity. Then the mad dogs assembled and began to accumulate the sparks of hell. O oppressors, you will be ruined and disgraced in the world and then.   "The torment in the Hereafter is very severe and lasting long."

Beasts Are Better Than They

There is an allegorical parable: There was a meeting of wild beasts to settle which animal was the most immodest, ill-smelling and dirtiest. When the president stood up to announce the result, an old pig stood up and demanded permission to speak. The president allowed. The old pig said, "Your honour, I have spent most part of my childhood and youth in Europe. Some Britishers had caught me from the jungle and then a British family brought me up. Your honour, the immodesty, bashlessness, licentiousness, ill-smell and dirt of the English ladies and gentlemen that I saw there cannot be described in words. I enjoyed more rights in that house than the head of the family but I was fed up with that bashlessness and dirt. There were two dogs also there. They would also often complain the same. When the matter went too far, one night I slipped away secretly." When that old pig told the incident of the British, the whole body began to echo with the voice of shame and repentance, repentances. Then the president announced that the most wicked, immodest, ill-smelling and dirty race in the world is that of the British whereas pig is nothing in comparison with them. It is said that the campaign of insolent sketches was started by an English lady. What else can be expected of an immodest, licentious, wicked, ill-smelling and dirty woman than this?

May Allah Bless with Good Reward!

The heart was injured and the eyes were striving to avoid this horrible news when a Fedai Mujaahid struck his vehicle against a special troop of the NATO forces. In that attack, one Canadian Colonal, three American Colonals and several soldiers were killed and several others were injured and returned to their homelands. This was the attack in which Allah's special Help was clearly discernible from every angle. Allah-o-Akbar! Only one Mujaahid and scattered dead bodies of the ring leaders of the Pagans. This is the actual correct and useful method of "protest" and clear expression of love for the Messenger of Allah . If all the Muslims adopt this policy and way out, all those who make sketches will be wiped out. Then no one will dare commit so heinous insolence. The Afghani Taalibaan have took over the responsibility of this attack. May Allah accept the martyrdom of that Mujaahid and bless him with good Reward from the entire Muslim Ummah! Amin.

Protest But Not Spread Insolence

These worms of the hell have been committing this heinous crime for a long time in the past. "The wicked people" committed insolence even in the age of the Holy Prophet himself. Allah be thanked, most of them were killed and the others repented of this sin in the true sense. We find the names of these wicked people in the books of Life History of Prophet . They included "Ibn Khatal, Ka'b bin Ashraf and Asma Jewess. What insolence did those expressed, is not mentioned in the books of Islamic History. The reason is that no Muslim can express insolence even as mimicry. Hence, none copied nor spread the insolence of those people. It is obligatory to the Muslisms even today not to spread these sketches and issues. No one should look at these sketches nor show them to others nor mention them much. However, sacrifice should be offered to make this protest effective. There will be no use holding processions, meetings and clamouring.

Face Book And YouTube.

The two websites which committed this oppression must be harmed and damaged the maximum. The easiest way is that the Muslims should stop opening these sites. How can a Muslim open such sites where insolence against the Holy Prophet is committed. Stop visiting these sites except in very strict obligation. Normally, computer and internet are enemies to the Belief of the Muslims. How can "Face Book" and "YouTube" be harmed only the computer experts can tell this. May Allah grant us with the power and capacity to do so!

The Muslim Rulers

All the rulers over the Islamic Countries regard themselves as very great Muslims. Our country in these days is ruled by "Peers, monks and Saahibzadas." Do those people have no link with the Holy Prophet ? Their mouths are closed and tongues are silent against every oppression and insolence. They can ban Face Book and all sites like it if they like but they ban the Mujaahideen and the religious people. It is these people who have ignited fire in all the Islamic countries. The Interior Minister has been speaking wildly against the Mujaahideen. If peace could have been restored due to such statements and such steps, it would have been established long ago. Mueen-ud-Din Hayder and Faisal Salih Hayaat would also speak so but now they have gone. Parvez Musharrif also used blind might and foul language well but the situation has been worsening day by day. Both dictatorship and democracy come as a curse for us. May Allah bless the Muslims with the blessings of Caliphate! Mentioning democracy, I have recalled an important point.

Foolishness of the Columnist

In the recent elections of Britain, a lady lawyer belonging to Pakistan has been elected the member of the Parliament. This lady has been living in England with her third husband and is the citizen there. A columnist of Pakistan has written a full column in honour of her. In the beginning of the column, he has written about her private life as how many husbands she has divorced and in which disputes she has been involved. Then he writes that in spite of her personal weaknesses, that lady continued labour and as the route being straight, she reached so great destination. Would that Dr. Aafia Siddiqui had also not adopted the wrong path but had treaded the straight path like this lady, she would perhaps also have been the member of the American Parliament.  

How oppressive, wicked and useless point this is. What connection between a celestial wife and an ape; an angel and Satan; embodiment of bashfulness and the gutter of unveiling; masterpiece of Belief and resolution and pile of slavery and materialism. The life of venerable Aafia Siddiaui is all worship every moment because the Muslim who is captivated by the Pagans; becomes Mu'takif in the way of Allah. What connection between Afia Siddiqui who cannot tolerate her searching out under any compulsion and Barister Shabaana who keeps rolling before common men like a sack of flour. But what can we do? The veils of materialism have blinded the eyes of the columnists of today. These are Muslims but write columns in favour of the Pagans. When Dajjaall comes, these people will perhaps rush to him to join him because Dajjall will be the sole king of technology and materialism. The science and technology before whom these people are prostrating cannot bring youth to an old man whereas Dajjall will turn the dead alive. These poor columnists envy the wealth of Bill Gytes and write columns whereas the wealth of Dajjall will be countless. A columnist wrote a column in honour of an infidelic American university and expressed insolence against Hazrat Syed Ameer Muaawia who is the uncle of the entire Muslim Ummah. I often think that according to the standard of success determined by these columnists, only Pharaoh, Qarun, Namrood and Abu Jahl were successful whereas Hazrat Syed Ibrahim, Hazrat Nuh and many other prophets led their lives in great struggle and difficulties. How would these columnists who call themselves Muslims be studying the Holy Quran? May Allah protect the Muslims against the wickedness of these colourless envelopes! A few of these column writers are colourful. They write four columns in favour of materialism and then one Islamic column and deem that there is no greater modest Muslim is the than they. The wonder is that some columnists lead complete English life and use every imported item in their houses. Then they accept bribe and write columns about boycott of the Multi-national companies whereas the pen with which they write is also the product of some Multi-national company. Actually, these people play with the passions of the Muslims and try to befool the nation. May Allah show us all the right path and grant us with the capacity to follow the Right Path!
