"As a matter of doctrine, the Muslim conception of tolerance is one in which non-Muslims have been politically and economically subdued, converted, or put to sword." -- Sam Harris

https://quranx.com/9.29

Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture - [fight] until they give the jizyah willingly while they are humbled.

https://quranx.com/Tafsir/Jalal/9.29

Fight those who do not believe in God, nor in the Last Day, for, otherwise, they would have believed in the Prophet (s), and who do not forbid what God and His Messenger have forbidden, such as wine, nor do they practise the religion of truth, the firm one, the one that abrogated other religions, namely, the religion of Islam — from among of those who (min, ‘from’, explains [the previous] alladhīna, ‘those who’) have been given the Scripture, namely, the Jews and the Christians, until they pay the jizya tribute, the annual tax imposed them, readily (‘an yadin is a circumstantial qualifier, meaning, ‘compliantly’, or ‘by their own hands’, not delegating it [to others to pay]), being subdued, [being made] submissive and compliant to the authority of Islam.

https://quranx.com/Tafsir/Kathir/9.29

Paying Jizyah is a Sign of Kufr and Disgrace Allah said, (until they pay the Jizyah), if they do not choose to embrace Islam, (with willing submission), in defeat and subservience, (and feel themselves subdued.), disgraced, humiliated and belittled. Therefore, Muslims are not allowed to honor the people of Dhimmah or elevate them above Muslims, for they are miserable, disgraced and humiliated.

https://quranx.com/Hadith/Bukhari/USC-MSA/Volume-1/Book-8/Hadith-387

Narrated Anas bin Malik: Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.' And if they say so, pray like our prayers, face our Qibla and slaughter as we slaughter, then their blood and property will be sacred to us and we will not interfere with them except legally and their reckoning will be with Allah."

Narrated Maimun bin Siyah that he asked Anas bin Malik, "O Abu Hamza! What makes the life and property of a person sacred?" He replied, "Whoever says, 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah', faces our Qibla during the prayers, prays like us and eats our slaughtered animal, then he is a Muslim, and has got the same rights and obligations as other Muslims have."

Islamic scripture and doctrine is openly hostile toward, and overtly contemptuous of, non-Muslims, regarding them as lesser, not equals, and deserving of nothing but Islamic subjugation.

Al-A'raf - 7:167

English - Ibn Kathir

Eternal Humiliation placed on the Jews

Allah reminds;

وَإِذْ تَأَذَّنَ رَبُّكَ لَيَبْعَثَنَّ عَلَيْهِمْ

And (remember) when your Lord declared that He would certainly keep on sending against them,

تَأَذَّنَ

(Ta'dhdhana) means

`declared', according to Mujahid, or

`ordained', according to others.

This part of the Ayah indicates a vow,

لَيَبْعَثَنَّ عَلَيْهِمْ

(that He will keep on sending against them) against the Jews,

إِلَى يَوْمِ الْقِيَامَةِ مَن يَسُومُهُمْ سُوءَ الْعَذَابِ

till the Day of Resurrection, those who would afflict them with a humiliating torment.

on account of their disobedience, defying Allah's orders and Law and using tricks to transgress the prohibitions.

It was reported that Musa required the Jews to pay the production tax for seven or thirteen years, and he was the first to do so.

Also, the Jews fell under the humiliating rule of the Greek Kushdanin, Chaldeans and later on the Christians, who subjugated and disgraced them, and required them to pay the Jizyah (tribute tax).

When Islam came and Muhammad was sent, they became under his power and had to pay the Jizyah, as well.

Therefore, the humiliating torment mentioned here includes disgrace and paying the Jizyah, as Al-Awfi narrated from Ibn Abbas.

In the future, the Jews will support the Dajjal (False Messiah); and the Muslims, along with Isa, son of Mary, will kill the Jews. This will occur just before the end of this world.

Allah said next,

إِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَسَرِيعُ الْعِقَابِ

Verily, your Lord is quick in retribution,

with those who disobey Him and defy His Law,

وَإِنَّهُ لَغَفُورٌ رَّحِيمٌ

and certainly He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

for those who repent and go back to Him.

This Ayah mentions both the mercy, as well as, the punishment, so that no despair is felt. Allah often mentions encouragement and warning together, so that hearts always have a sense of hope and fear

[ahlulhaditht]

Covering the Jews in Humiliation and Misery

Allah said,

 

وَضُرِبَتْ عَلَيْهِمُ الذِّلَّةُ وَالْمَسْكَنَةُ

And they were covered with humiliation and misery.

This Ayah indicates that the Children of Israel were plagued with humiliation, and that this will continue, meaning that it will never cease. They will continue to suffer humiliation at the hands of all who interact with them, along with the disgrace that they feel inwardly.

▪︎  Al-Hasan commented,

"Allah humiliated them, and they shall have no protector. Allah put them under the feet of the Muslims, who appeared at a time when the Majus (Zoroastrians) were taking the Jizyah (tax) from the Jews."

▪︎ Also, Abu Al-Aliyah, Ar-Rabi bin Anas and As-Suddi said that; 

misery' used in the Ayah means, poverty.'

▪︎ Atiyah Al-Awfi said that;

misery' means, paying the tilth (tax).'

▪︎ In addition, Ad-Dahhak commented on Allah's statement,

 

وَبَأوُوْاْ بِغَضَبٍ مِّنَ اللَّهِ

and they drew on themselves the wrath of Allah,

"They deserved Allah's anger."

▪︎ Also, Ibn Jarir said that the Ayah means,

"They went back with the wrath.

▪︎ Similarly, Allah said,

إِنِّي أُرِيدُ أَن تَبُوءَ بِإِثْمِي وَإِثْمِكَ

(Verily, I intend to let you draw my sin on yourself as well as yours), (5:29) meaning,

You will end up carrying my, and your, mistakes instead of me'.

Thus, the meaning of the Ayah becomes,

They went back carrying Allah's anger; Allah's wrath descended on them; they deserved Allah's anger."'

Allah's statement,

ذَلِكَ بِأَنَّهُمْ كَانُواْ يَكْفُرُونَ بِأيَاتِ اللَّهِ وَيَقْتُلُونَ النَّبِيِّينَ بِغَيْرِ الْحَقِّ

That was because they used to disbelieve in the Ayat (proofs, evidences, etc.) of Allah and killed the Prophets wrongfully.

means, "This is what We rewarded the Children of Israel with:humiliation and misery."

Allah's anger that descended on the Children of Israel was a part of the humiliation they earned, because of their defiance of the truth, disbelief in Allah's Ayat and belittling the carriers of Allah's Law i.e. the Prophets and their following. The Children of Israel rejected the Messengers and even killed them. Surely, there is no form of disbelief worse than disbelieving in Allah's Ayat and murdering the Prophets of Allah.

▪︎ Imam Ahmad recorded, Abdullah bin Mas`ud saying that the Messenger of Allah said,

أَشَدُّ النَّاسِ عَذَابًا يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ رَجُلٌ قَتَلَهُ نَبِيٌّ أَوْ قَتَلَ نَبِيًّا وَإِمَامُ ضَلَلَةٍ وَمُمَثِّلٌ مِنَ الْمُمَثِّلِين

The people who will receive the most torment on the Day of Resurrection are:a man who was killed by a Prophet or who killed a Prophet, an unjust ruler and one who mutilates (the dead).

📜 Tafsīr Ibn Kathīr رحمه الله

(Surah al-Baqarah (2):61)

[lifeofresulullah]

The Life of The Prophet Muhammad(pbuh): The Conquest of Makkah and Afterwards

The King of Bahrayn Becomes a Muslim

(8th year of the Migration, the end of the month of Dhulqada)

The Prophet sent Ala’ b. Had­ra­mi to Mundhir b. Sawa, the king of Bahrayn.  Abu Hurayra also went to Bahrayn with Ala’ b. Had­ra­mi.

Bahrayn is the name given to the countries on the coast of India, Basra and Umman. The people of Bahrayn consisted of fireworshippers, Jews and Christians.  

Ala’ b. Hadrami went to Mundhir b. Sawa and gave him the letter of the Prophet. The following was written in the letter:

“Bismillahirrahmanirrahim!

Peace be upon those who follow guidance!

I invite you to Islam! Be a Muslim so that you will attain salvation. God will let you be the king of your land.

Know it very well that my religion will rule and go as far as camels and horses can go.”

After a short conversation with Ala’ b. Hadrami, Mundhir b. Sawa became a Muslim together with Sibuht, the religious leader of the fireworshippers. Thus, Mundhir had the belief that would bring him the sultanate of the hereafter along with the sultanate in the world.  

Many people became Muslims together with the king and the religious leader.

Mundhir, the king, sent a letter to the Prophet. After stating that he became a Muslim and that he approved the prophethood of the Messenger of God, he asked how he should treat the fireworshippers and Jews in his country.    

The Messenger of God replied the letter of Mundhir as follows:

“Bismillahirrahmanirrahim!

From Muhammad, Messenger of God to Mundhir bin Sawa.

Peace be on you!

I praise God, who has no associates, for giving you the bounty of guidance.

I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger.

I received your letter, had it read and listened to what you wrote.

I remind you to act in accordance with the orders and prohibitions of God. A person who advises others definitely advises himself, too; and he will gain rewards.

A person who follows my messengers and acts in accordance with their orders, in fact, is regarded to have obeyed me.

My messengers have highly praised your behavior and told me good things about you. I accept your intercession and recommendation regarding your people. Give the new Muslims full chance to practice their religion. Pardon the previous offences of the offenders; do not hold them responsible for what they did in the past.

Know it very well that as long as you do good things, you shall continue in your present office; you will be our deputy there.

As for the people who want to go on in their Jewish or fireworshipping faith, they have to pay you jizyah.

Peace and mercy of God be upon you!”

We should state that the Prophet sent several letters to Mundhir b. Sawa on different dates and that Mundhir answered them.

Ala’ b. Had­rami stayed there as the Messenger of God had ordered him and continued to collect tithe from Muslims and jizyah from non-Muslims.

During the 8th year of the Migration, many delegates from the tribes around came to Madinah and expressed that they became Muslims in the presence of the Messenger of God.

JALAN KEMENANGAN Bag. 1

Oleh: Syaikh Abu Hamzah al-Muhajir (Taqobbalahullah)

Aku berlindung kepada Allah dari Syaitan

yang terkutuk.

Dengan nama Allah Yang Maha Pengasih

lagi Maha Penyayang.

{Sungguh Allah telah menolong kalian dalam peperangan Badar, padahal kalian adalah orang-orang yang lemah. Karena itu bertakwalah kepada Allah, supaya kalian dapat bersyukur pada-Nya. (Ingatlah), ketika kamu mengatakan kepada orang mukmin: “Apakah tidak cukup bagi kalian Allah membantu kalian dengan tiga ribu malaikat yang diturunkan (dari langit)?” Ya (cukup), jika kalian bersabar dan bertakwa, dan mereka datang menyerang kalian dengan seketika itu juga, niscaya Allah

menolong kalian dengan lima ribu malaikat yang memakai tanda. Dan Allah tidak menjadikan bantuan itu melainkan sebagai kabar gembira bagi (kemenangan) kalian, dan agar tenteram hati kalian karenanya. Dan kemenangan itu hanyalah dari Allah Yang Mahaperkasa lagi Mahabijaksana}

[QS. Ali Imran: 123-126].

Segala puji bagi Allah Sang Pemilik Kemuliaan dan Rabb semesta alam, Penjamin kemenangan Dien ini, tiada yang berhak disembah kecuali Dia, yang memenangkan kebenaran sekalipun setelah beberapa waktu. Shalawat dan salam atas penghulu para rasul, semoga Allah meridhainya dan para sahabatnya kaum muhajirin dan ansar.

Amma Ba’du,

Allah 'Azza wa Jalla telah berfirman: {Mereka berkehendak memadamkan cahaya (agama) Allah dengan mulut (ucapan-ucapan) mereka, dan Allah tidak menghendaki selain menyempurnakan cahaya-Nya, walaupun orang-orang yang kaf i r tidak menyukai. Dialah yang telah mengutus Rasul-Nya (dengan membawa) petunjuk (al-Quran) dan agama yang benar untuk dimenangkan-Nya atas segala agama, walaupun orang-orang musyrik tidak menyukai} [QS. at-Taubah: 32-33]. Maka hendaknya setiap muslim yakin bahwa kesempurnaan kemenangan pasti datang, bahwa Allah pasti memuliakan Dien ini, bahwa masa depan adalah untuk Dien ini walaupun seluruh umat mengeroyok kita, dan bahwa kita pasti akan menguasai bumi dengan kehendak Allah Yang Mahakuat lagi Maha perkasa. Siapa yang meragukan hal itu, dia termasuk golongan para penyebar berita dusta lagi kaf i r.

Allah Raja Yang Maha benar lagi Jelas berfirman: {Sungguh telah kami tuliskan di dalam Zabur setelah (kami tulis) di Lauh Mahfuzh, bahwa bumi ini akan diwarisi oleh hamba-hamba-Ku yang shalih. Sesungguhnya dalam (apa yang Kami tulis) ini benar-benar menjadi peringatan bagi orang-orang yang beribadah (pada Allah)}

[QS. al-Anbiyā: 105-106]. Rasul yang jujur

lagi dipercaya Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam bersabda: “Perkara ini benar-benar sampai pada tempat yang dijangkau malam dan siang. Allah tidak membiarkan satu rumah di perkotaan dan di gurun, kecuali Allah masukkan Dien ini ke dalamnya dengan kemuliaan orang yang mulia atau dengan kerendahan orang yang hina. Kemuliaan yang dengannya Allah memuliakan Islam dan kehinaan yang dengannya Allah menghinakan orang-orang kaf i r.”

Tamim ad-Dari radhiyallahu 'anhu berkata sebagaimana dalam al-Musnad: “Hal itu terjadi pada keluargaku, yang masuk islam mendapat kebaikan, kemuliaan dan kejayaan, sedangkan yang kaf i r mendapat kehinaan, kerendahan, dan jizyah.”

Oleh karena itu, hendaknya seorang muwahid mengetahui bahwa akidah yang dibela hingga darah yang suci tertumpah, yang para syuhada berperang hidup mati untuk membelanya, pasti akan menang. Panahnya akan melesat menembus leher setiap kaf i r dan menerangi hati setiap muwahid. Namun hendaknya kita semua mengetahui bahwa kemenangan itu tergantung pada sejauh mana kita mengikuti Nabi Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam, terlepas dari sebab-sebab materi, sebagaimana dikatakan oleh ahli ilmu. Ibnul Qayyim rahimahullah berkata: “Kemenangan dan dukungan yang sempurna hanya untuk orang yang memiliki iman yang sempurna. Allah Ta'ala berfirman: {Sungguh kami akan menolong rasul-rasul kami dan orang-orang yang beriman di dalam kehidupan dunia dan juga di hari berdirinya para saksi (hari kiamat)} [QS. Ghafir: 51].

Juga kalam-Nya: {Maka kami tolong orang-orang yang beriman dalam melawan musuh mereka sehingga mereka menjadi menang} [QS. as-Shaff: 14]. Maka siapa yang imannya berkurang, jatah kemenangan dan pertolongan juga berkurang”. Demikian perkataan beliau rahimahullah.

Nabi Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam telah menunjukkan pada kita dengan sempurna sebab-sebab dan penghalang datangnya pertolongan. Syaikhul Islam Ibnu Tamiyyah rahimahullah berkata: “Demikianlah Nabi Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam mengenalkan pada mereka tipu daya perang, bagaimana berhadapan dengan musuh, dan jalan meraih kemenangan serta keberuntungan, yang jika mereka mengetahui, memahami, dan menjaganya dengan sebenar-benarnya, musuh tidak akan lagi sanggup melawan mereka selama-lamanya”.

Diantara sebab pertolongan Allah adalah:

Pertama: TAUHID

Allah Ta'ala berfirman: {Mereka senantiasa

memerangi kalian hingga mereka dapat

mengeluarkan kalian dari Dien kalian jika mereka sanggup} [QS. al-Baqarah: 217]. Juga kalam-Nya: {Mereka tidak menyiksa orang-orang beriman itu kecuali karena mereka beriman pada Allah Yang Mahaperkasa lagi Terpuji} [QS. al-Burūj: 8]. Inilah hakikat yang seharusnya dipahami oleh mujahidin.

Sesungguhnya peperangan antara para

muwahid dan orang-orang kaf i r pada dasarnya dan pada akhirnya adalah pertempuran karena akidah. Allah juga telah mempersempit dan membatasi permusuhan ini lantaran karena Dien saja. Maka orang

kaf i r, baik dia seorang sekuleris, komunis, Yahudi, maupun Nashrani, tidak memusuhi para muwahid kecuali lantaran keimanan mereka yang bersih dari kotoran. Slogan apapun selain slogan Dien yang diusung pada pertempuran apapun yang berlangsung

antara kita dan mereka adalah murni dusta. Permusuhan orang kaf i r asli atau murtad atas mujahid muwahid selamanya tidaklah bermotif politik atau ekonomi, pertempuran yang terjadi adalah antara kekafiran dan keimanan, pertempuran akidah dan persoalan agama.

Kita tidak memerangi Salibis penjajah atau Arab murtad hanya demi sejengkal tanah, pertempuran kita ini adalah demi meninggikan kalimat Allah di bumi. Mereka juga tidak memerangi kita karena perselisihan dalam urusan materi. Jika urusannya seperti itu, tentu amat mudah baginya dan bagi kita untuk mencari titik temu yang mungkin bisa dikompromikan. Namun, sungai susu yang mengaliri hati dan urat nadi kami tidak akan mungkin kita kotori dengan lautan dan tetek bengek kotoran najis akidah mereka.

Dahulu, kolonialisme adalah wajah asli salibis, seperti juga saat ini menjadi wajah asli Yahudi dan Nasrani. Berkali-kali sang Kaisar Romawi Bush mengumumkan hal itu dengan kata-katanya: “Sesungguhnya ini adalah Perang Salib”. Lalu, ada apa mereka berdusta, dan mendustakan?

Jika engkau mengetahui hal ini wahai mujahid, maka wajib bagimu agar tidak terkacaukan dengan bermacam-macam panji, atau tertipu dengan bermacam-macam nama mentereng, sebagaimana juga wajib engkau bersihkan hati dan barisanmu dari segala macam kotoran. Jangan sampai ada syirik atau orang musyrik di hati atau barisanmu. Engkau harus tahu bahwa adanya kesyirikan dalam barisan dan hati kita adalah penghalang kemenangan terbesar dan pembawa kekalahan tercepat. Allah Ta'ala berfirman: {Orang-orang zalim tidaklah memiliki pelindung dan penolong}

[QS. as-Syūrā: 8]. Allah juga berfirman: {Orang-orang zalim tidaklah memiliki penolong} [QS. al-Baqarah: 270]. Tafsirnya adalah dalam firman Allah Ta'ala: {Wahai anakku, janganlah kalian menyekutukan Allah. Sungguh syirik adalah kezaliman yang besar} [QS. Luqmān: 13].

Kemudian, sesungguhnya memurnikan niat hanya pada Allah adalah faktor kemenangan dan tamkin yang paling penting. Allah Ta'ala berfirman: {Maka Allah mengetahui apa yang ada dalam hati mereka lalu menurunkan ketenangan atas mereka dan memberi balasan kepada mereka dengan kemenangan yang dekat (waktunya)} [QS al-Fath: 18], maksudnya, Allah mengetahui kejujuran, loyalitas, dan

kemurnian niat mereka karena Allah dalam baiat ini. Ayat ini menunjukkan bahwa ikhlas adalah salah satu syarat tamkin yang jika terpenuhi maka Allah akan memberi balasan berupa futuh, kemenangan, dan kekuasaan. Allah Ta'ala berfirman: {Barangsiapa mengharap perjumpaan dengan Rabbnya, maka hendaklah ia mengerjakan amal shalih dan janganlah ia mempersekutukan seorang pun dalam beribadat kepada Rabbnya}

[QS. al-Kahf: 110]. Nabi Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam bersabda: “Sesungguhnya apa yang

paling aku takuti pada kalian adalah syirik kecil”.

Oleh karena itu, Nabi Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam sang pemimpin adalah manusia yang paling bersungguh-sungguh menyucikan hati para sahabatnya dari bencana ini, khususnya dalam berjihad, sabdanya: “Sungguh demi Allah kami tidak akan memberikan pekerjaan ini pada orang yang memintanya, tidak pula pada orang yang sangat menginginkannya”.

Dari Abu Sa’īd Abdurrahman bin Samurah

berkata, Rasulullah Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam bersabda: “Wahai Abdurrahman bin Samurah, janganlah meminta jabatan. Karena jika engkau dibebani jabatan itu tanpa meminta, maka engkau akan dibantu. Sedangkan jika engkau dibebani jabatan itu karena permintaanmu, maka jabatan itu akan dipikulkan padamu”.

Imam an-Nawawi rahimahullah berkata:

“Para ulama berkata, ‘Hikmah tidak diberikannya kekuasaan bagi yang memintanya adalah kekuasaan itu dipikulkan padanya tanpa mendapat pertolongan dalam menjalankannya,

sebagaimana yang telah jelas dalam hadits Abdurrahman bin Samurah tersebut. Jika tidak mendapat pertolongan, orang itu tidak akan memiliki kapabilitas, sedangkan orang yang tidak memiliki kapabilitas tidaklah diberi kekuasaan”.

Terkadang seseorang telah lebih dahulu

berjalan menuju Allah dan berjihad Fisabilillah, dan dia juga memiliki banyak kebaikan yang diketahui oleh Allah. Akan tetapi bisa jadi ia tidak layak memikul kepemimpinan sekalipun dia menyangka dirinya mampu memikulnya. Dari Abu Dzar radhiyallahu 'anhu: Saya berkata: “Wahai Rasulullah, tidakkah engkau menugasiku? Maka Rasulullah menepuk kedua pundakku seraya bersabda: “Wahai Abu Dzar, sesungguhnya engkau adalah orang lemah, sedangkan ini adalah amanat, yang merupakan kehinaan dan penyesalan di hari kiamat”. Tapi terkadang kekuasaan itu menjadi Fardhu ‘Ain bagi orang yang kapabel ketika melihat darah ditumpahkan dan harta dicuri sedangkan dia mampu untuk mencegahnya, orang mulia putra

orang mulia berkata: {Berikanlah perbendaharaan bumi padaku, sungguh aku terpercaya dan memiliki ilmu} [QS. Yusuf: 55].

Kedua: PERSATUAN

Allah Ta'ala berfirman: {Dan berpeganglah

kamu semuanya kepada tali (agama) Allah, dan janganlah kamu bercerai berai, dan ingatlah akan nikmat Allah kepadamu ketika kamu dahulu (masa Jahiliyah) bermusuh-musuhan, maka Allah mempersatukan hatimu, lalu menjadilah kamu karena nikmat Allah, orang-orang yang bersaudara}

[QS. Āli ‘Imrān: 103].

Abdullah bin Mas’ud radhiyallahu 'anhu berkata: “Wahai manusia, wajib bagi kalian

untuk taat dan berjamaah karena keduanya adalah ketentuan yang Allah perintahkan. Apa yang kalian benci dalam berjamaah dan ketaatan adalah lebih baik dari apa yang kalian sukai dalam perpecahan”.

Bagaimana tidak, sungguh telah tetap dari

Rasulullah Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam sebagaimana tercantum dalam al-Musnad, sabdanya: “Tiga hal yang hati seorang muslim tidak terkena dengki karenanya; ikhlas beramal karena Allah dan menasihati para pemimpin”. Dalam riwayat lain disebutkan: “…taat kepada para pemegang urusan dan komitmen pada jamaah, karena doa mereka meliputi siapa saja yang berada dalam tanggung jawab mereka”. Ibnul Qayyim rahimahullah berkata: “Siapa yang mengikhlaskan seluruh amal perbuatannya untuk Allah, melakukan amalnya secara totalitas dan penuh integritas, komitmen terhadap jama’ah dengan bersatu dan tidak berselisih, hatinya akan menjadi bersih suci dan ia menjadi wali Allah. Namun, siapa yang menyelisihi hal ini, hatinya akan dipenuhi keburukan yang membinasakan”.

Pada dasarnya, kaum muslimin wajib untuk berjamaah bukan berpecah belah, dan berpegang pada tali Allah bukan menyempal serta saling berselisih. Hidup berjamaah itu di dunia berbuah kemuliaan, kemenangan, dan tamkin, dan di akhirat mewariskan wajah yang bercahaya serta derajat yang tinggi, sebagaimana perkataan Ibnu Abbas radhiyallahu 'anhuma dalam tafsir kalam Allah Ta'ala: {Pada hari beberapa wajah menjadi putih dan beberapa wajah (lainnya) menjadi hitam} [QS. Āli ‘Imrān: 106], katanya: “Wajah ahlus sunnah wal jamaah menjadi putih, dan wajah ahli bid’ah dan perpecahan menjadi hitam”.

Dalam perpecahan tidak ada kemuliaan

dan kemenangan sama sekali, meskipun amir kita adalah sebaik-baik dan seberani-beraninya makhluk Allah di muka bumi. Inilah Amirul Mukminin Ali bin Abi Thalib radhiyallahu 'anhu, ketika menjabat sebagai khalifah tidak ada yang lebih baik daripadanya. Meskipun demikian, ketika umat menyelisihi nya, sekelompok orang memberontak padanya, dan kemudian muncul Khawarij, beliau sama sekali tidak bisa menyiapkan satu pasukan pun untuk memerangi orang-orang kaf i r.

Syaikhul Islam Ibnu Taimiyyah rahimahullah berkata dalam pembicaraannya mengenai dua belas imam menurut Rafidhah: “Tidak ada seorangpun dari mereka yang mempunyai kekuatan selain Ali bin Abi Thalib. Sekalipun demikian, selama masa khilafahnya beliau tidak mampu menggempur orang kaf i r, atau menaklukkan kota, atau bahkan membunuh satu orang kaf i r. Sebaliknya, kaum muslimin malah sibuk saling memerangi, sampai-sampai orang-orang kaf i r di Timur dan di Syam baik kaum musyrikin maupun Ahli Kitab mendapat kesempatan menyerang mereka, sampai dikatakan berhasil merebut beberapa negeri kaum muslimin”.

Perang Jamal adalah contoh paling menyakitkan akibat perpecahan barisan dan menyelisihi persatuan. Sebaliknya, ketika umat bersatu dibawah kepemimpinan Mu’awiyah dalam ‘Ām al-Jamā’ah (Tahun Persatuan), beliau bisa mempersiapkan dan mengirim pasukan demi pasukan, menaklukkan berbagai negeri, mengumpulkan zakat, dan menggelontorkan harta.

Tidak ada seorang pun yang menentang bahwa Ali itu lebih takwa, lebih berani, lebih adil, dan lebih bijak daripada Mu’awiyah radhiyallahu 'anhu, akan tetapi semua perselisihan adalah buruk. Nabi Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam bersabda sebagaimana dalam Shahih Muslim: ”Siapa yang keluar dari ketaatan dan meninggalkan jamaah lalu mati, maka matinya jahiliyah, dan siapa yang berperang di bawah panji fanatisme, marah karena fanatisme kelompok atau menyeru pada kelompok lalu terbunuh, maka matinya jahiliyah”. Begitu juga sabdanya: “Siapa yang melihat suatu hal yang dia benci pada pemimpinnya, maka hendaknya bersabar, karena siapapun yang memisahkan diri dari jamaah kemudian ia mati, matinya Jahiliyah”.

Sesungguhnya kami, dengan pertolongan

Allah, selama hati kita bersatu dalam satu

pimpinan yang kita berbaik sangka dan menepis segala tuduhan serta keraguan yang ditudingkan padanya, maka Demi Allah, sekalipun Amerika datang dengan seluruh kekuatannya, dengan seluruh laki-laki dan wanitanya untuk memerangi kita, niscaya kita tetap akan menang. Maka, wahai tentara-tentara Allah, halangilah setiap orang yang hendak memecah belah barisan kalian.

if i see any posts that are supporting hamas, i am going to instantly report the blog to tumblr as glorifying terrorism. i dont expect anything to be done, but im sick of the one sidedness of the goyim of this website, and at least theyll be blocked from me.

i will not stand for anyone supporting a group that forcibly makes jews, hindus, druze, buddists, atheists, zoroastrians, sikhs, jains, and christians pay a jizyah, convert, or die.

thats what hamas is. go learn about arab colonialism.

"Because antisemitism is the godfather of racism, and the gateway to tyranny and fascism and war, it is to be regarded not as the enemy of the Jewish people alone, but as the common enemy of humanity and of civilization. And it has to be fought against very tenaciously for that reason. Most especially in its current, most virulent form, of Islamic jihad... We must make sure our own defenses are not neglected. Our task is to call this filthy thing, this plague, this pest, by its right name, to make unceasing resistance to it, knowing all the time that it is probably ultimately ineradicable. And bearing in mind that its hatred towards us is a compliment. And resolving, some of the time at any rate, to do a bit more to deserve it." -- Christopher Hitchens

People don't get that this isn't just about Jews. That's just the thin edge of the wedge.

https://quranx.com/9.29

Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture - [fight] until they give the jizyah willingly while they are humbled.

https://quranx.com/Hadith/Bukhari/USC-MSA/Volume-1/Book-8/Hadith-387

Narrated Anas bin Malik: Allah's Messenger said, "I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.' And if they say so, pray like our prayers, face our Qibla and slaughter as we slaughter, then their blood and property will be sacred to us and we will not interfere with them except legally and their reckoning will be with Allah."

I'm embarrassed for being associated with Islam - Ex Muslim via /r/atheism

I'm embarrassed for being associated with Islam - Ex Muslim Grew up in Pakiland. Met Jihadis to Mullahs from the Red Mosque and even saw Hafiz Saeed. All my life growing up I kept seeing Muslims killing Muslims in Pakistan. Taliban doing suicide blasts daily. I remember we were averaging more than one terrorist attack per day for a whole year. Then came ISIS and Bin laden. Then Boko Haram & the list keeps ongoing. Now we have Hamas. It always bugged me why we can't state the obvious that one specific religion is causing worldwide grief. From beheading cartoonists to Lynching blasphemers, what are these people drunk on? The prophet is a 50 yo man & married a 6 yo child when his own daughters were teens. He married the equivalence of his grand daughter. Ended up marrying 18 women & divorcing many others. This sex obsessed maniac endowed upon the world big titted houris in heaven, a psychotic belief at best inspiring jihadis to blow themselves up for imaginary pussy post humous. What else do we get? Chopping hands, stoning people, veiling women, flogging people & a butt load of ancient bullshit encoded in 7th century poetry such as shooting stars chasing genies or Angels descending from heaven to fight wars. Oh yes Jizyah & being told how unbelievers are deaf, dumb, blind, donkeys, cattle, pigs, animals or filth etc. It is so EXTREMELY embarrassing to be ever associated with such a brain numbing ideology. Muslims are not realizing that Islam is hurting their society's and progress. More Islamic extremists keep killing themselves as Islam is no longer evolutionary stable. It's imploding. The world is suffering Stockholm syndrome as the west tries to resuscitate that 2 billion chunk of homosapiens stuck with the Islam meme. We all recognize the deep problem of Islamic extremism yet are scared to say it out load. They tell us Islam is a religion of peace whilst being the single religion that outshines every other faith in religious violence.

▶️ Bukan Kemiskinan Yang Aku Takutkan ◀️ ㅤㅤ Dari Amr Bin ‘Auf al-Anshari radhiyallahu ‘anhu bahwasanya Rasulullah ﷺ mengutus Abu Ubaidah Bin Jarrah radhiyallahu ‘anhu ke Bahrain untuk mengambil jizyah (pembayaran yang harus diserahkan kaum kafir yang berada di bawah kekuasaan dan jaminan keamanan oleh kaum muslimin) dari penduduknya. ㅤㅤ Rasulullah ﷺ telah menerima permintaan damai dari penduduk Bahrain dan beliau mengangkat al-Ala’ Bin al-Hadhrami untuk menjadi ‘amir (pemimpin) di sana. ㅤㅤ Ketika Abu Ubaidah datang dari Bahrain dengan membawa harta jizyah itu, para sahabat kaum Anshar mendengar kedatangan Abu Ubaidah ini. Maka merekapun berkumpul untuk menghadiri shalat shubuh bersama Rasulullah ﷺ . ㅤㅤ Ketika telah selesai shalat, Rasulullah ﷺ langsung keluar. Namun mereka berusaha merintangi beliau. Ketika melihat mereka, Rasulullah ﷺ tersenyum kemudian berkata, 📗 “Saya mengira kalian telah mendengar kedatangan Abu Ubaidah membawa sesuatu dari Bahrain?” ㅤㅤ Mereka berkata, “Benar wahai Rasulullah.” ㅤㅤ Rasulullah ﷺ bersabda, 📗 “Kalau begitu, bergembiralah dan berharaplah memperoleh sesuatu yang melapangkan diri kalian. Demi Allah, bukan kemiskinan yang aku khawatirkan akan menimpa diri kalian. Akan tetapi, aku khawatir jika dunia ini dibentangkan untuk kalian sebagaimana ia dibentangkan untuk orang-orang sebelum kalian sehingga kalian berlomba sebagaimana mereka berlomba, dan akhirnya kalian hancur sebagaimana mereka hancur.” — HR. Muslim (2961), al-Bukhari (6425), dan Ibnu Abi ad-Dunya dalam kitab tentang Zuhud hal. 73. ㅤㅤ 💡Harta dan perhiasan dunia bisa saja melalaikan. Kebebasan finansial membuat kita lupa siapa sebenarnya diri kita. Nikmat sehat dan nikmat waktu luang membuat kita terpedaya. Apakah kita pernah mau menyadarinya? ㅤㅤ https://instagr.am/p/Cq66JzhIfjd/

Tafsir Ibn Kathir: Surah Al-Tawbah Ayah 32-33

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

9:32 They want to extinguish Allah's Light with their mouths, but Allah will not allow except that His Light should be perfected even though the disbelievers hate (it).

9:33 It is He Who has sent His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth, to make it superior over all religions even though the idolators hate (it).

People of the Scriptures try to extinguish the Light of Islam

Allah says,

They (the disbelieving idolators and People of the Scriptures) want to extinguish the Light of Allah with their mouths,

They try through argument and lies to extinguish the guidance and religion of truth that the Messenger of Allah was sent with.

Their example is the example of he who wants to extinguish the light of the sun or the moon by blowing at them! Indeed, such a person will never accomplish what he sought. Likewise, the light of what the Messenger was sent with will certainly shine and spread.

Allah replied to the idolators' desire and hope,

but Allah will not allow except that His Light should be perfected even though the disbelievers (Kafirun) hate (it).

Linguistically a Kafir is the person who covers something.

For instance, night is called Kafiran (covering) because it covers things (with darkness).

The farmer is called Kafiran, because he covers seeds in the ground.

Allah said in an Ayah,

thereof the growth is pleasing to the (Kuffar) tillers. (57:20)

Islam is the Religion That will dominate over all Other Religions

Allah said next,

It is He Who has sent His Messenger with guidance and the religion of truth.

`Guidance' refers to the true narrations, beneficial faith and true religion that the Messenger came with.

`religion of truth' refers to the righteous, legal deeds that bring about benefit in this life and the Hereafter.

to make it (Islam) superior over all religions, even though the idolators hate (it).

It is recorded in the Sahih that the Messenger of Allah said,

Allah made the eastern and western parts of the earth draw near for me (to see), and the rule of my Ummah will extend as far as I saw.

Imam Ahmad recorded from Tamim Ad-Dari that he said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah saying,  

This matter (Islam) will keep spreading as far as the night and day reach, until Allah will not leave a house made of mud or hair, but will make this religion enter it, while bringing might to a mighty person (a Muslim) and humiliation to a disgraced person (who rejects Islam). Might with which Allah elevates Islam (and its people) and disgrace with which Allah humiliates disbelief (and its people).

Tamim Ad-Dari (who was a Christian before Islam) used to say,

"I have come to know the meaning of this Hadith in my own people.

Those who became Muslims among them acquired goodness, honor and might.

Disgrace, humiliation and Jizyah befell those who remained disbelievers.''

Britain needs to be under Sharia Law and pay the Jizyah for the horrendous fucking food they make. Infidel behavior

[survivingcristero]

Nah, pretty sure that's our land. Remember the war, when we kicked your ass? Kinda settled it. What, do you wanna go again, and we can take the rest of your "country" too? Or maybe split it down the middle with Brazil?

You mean the war where the actual officers and even Sandy Woodard in his biography admitted that they almost lost WHILE the other side was sabotaged at every instance by its highest command and the war effort was entirely supported by Pilots and Concripted Infantry ? .The fact that you faggots keep masturbating yourself to that demonstrates you have no national identity .How is the Sheffield , bitch ? .How does it feel to feel to be the country with the most embarrassing string of military defeats ? .

Makes sense that you are hiding behind Anon , your worthless country censors every embarrassing defeat you ever had .Like La Coruña and Cartagena de Indias .Go back to your Caliphate , go pay the Jizyah .

The Life of The Prophet Muhammad(pbuh): The Conquest of Makkah and Afterwards

The King of Umman and His Brother are invited to Islam

(8th year of the Migration, the month of Dhulqada)

The Prophet returned to Madinah with the joy and peace brought about by the conquest of Makkah and the victory of Hunayn with his Companions. The polytheism was defeated badly and the tribes started to enter Islam in groups. The Muslims virtually had a new excitement and spirit of jihad. The fact that the honorable flag of Islam started to wave almost everywhere in Arabia made them peaceful and happy.

However, there were still some kings who had not received the invitation of Islam yet. When the Messenger of God returned to Madinah, he sent Amr b. As to Umman. His duty was to give Jayfar, the king, and his brother Abd the letter that was given to him and to invite them to Islam.

Umman was a big city on the coast of Yemen-India Sea where the Persian Gulf narrows. Azdis ruled this city, which was famous for its date groves and crops. There were also some people of different races there.

Amr b. As arrived in Umman as he was ordered and gave the letter to the king and his brother. When they opened the letter, they saw that the Messenger of God addressed them as follows:

“Bismillahirrahmanirrahim!

From the Messenger of God Muhammad b. Abdullah to Jayfar and Abd, sons of Julanda!

Peace be upon those who follow guidance!

After greeting you, I tell you this:

I invite both of you to Islam. Be Muslims so that you will attain salvation.  

I am the Messenger of God that He sent to the humanity so that I will warn them about the torture in the hereafter and to apply the decrees of God about the unbelievers.

If you embrace Islam, you will remain as the rulers; if you do not embrace Islam, you will definitely lose your sovereignty; cavalrymen will invade your land and my prophethood will beat your kingdom and sultanate.”

At first, Jayfar and his brother hesitated; then, they overcame their hesitation and became Muslims, affirming the prophethood of the Messenger of God. They also invited the people to Islam. When the people heard their invitation, they accepted Islam readily.

Thereupon, Amr b. As undertook the duty of administrative affairs of this city as the Prophet had told him. Amr was ordered by the Prophet to collect zakah and sadaqah from the rich and to give them to the poor; he was also ordered to collect jizyah from fireworshippers and settle the cases among the Muslims.

Amr stayed in Umman to carry out these tasks until the death of the Prophet.
