ISLAM DEFAMED BY ITS OWN FOLLOWERS BY AVOIDING THE COMPREHENSION OF THE QURAN IN DAILY LIFE AFFAIRS (Part One)

There is always a debate between orthodox, ignorant religious followers who takes religion on hear-say of their elders, and the modern, educated, liberal-minded person about the faith. In this respect, both remains the groups are on the extreme measures.?Despite the authentic holy book Quran), no one try to get guidance by studying it with meaning in the daily practices. So, the solution is there but they give preferences to worldly affairs and never like to teach and train the young ones who just get away from the religion and keep name as a symbol of religion. Therefore, whenever they are cross-questioned about the basis of religion, they are unable to answer as they are influenced by social media and foreign western thoughts that propagate for liberalism and capitalism just as mission of life. Even if they are taught holy book in traditional manner without the meanings, they repeat it without any comprehension of the subject to apply it in practical life. As a result of it, they avoid even the basic obligation, monotheism and moral-ethical values but just celebrates rituals, festivals as a fun and pleasure.

As narrated above Islam is a simple, practical, humanistic religion based on the key point of having deep devoted submission to One Allah (God), last prophet Muhammad (PBUH) as a model and to follow the revealed book Quran for guidance to straight path in life. Its translation for non-Arabic speaking people is available for the local communities throughout the world in printed and media on the internet. As the common person does not care for the religion, therefore Mullahs/Imammas interpret it with their own intentions which is the root cause of sectarian rivalries and bifurcation in the societies to such an extent that in every mohalla/street has its own sect mosques and the preachers get benefit of the situation in socio-political system. For the guidance of a common person Allah stresses in the Quran to use wisdom, observation and apply senses with reasoning to comprehend the ayahs revealed for the mankind. It is even stated for all the intelligent Muslims in V-25:71-73,” And whosoever repents and does righteous good deeds, then verily, he repents towards Allah with true repentance.?And those who do not witness falsehood, and if they pass by some evil play or evil talk, they pass by it with dignity. And those who, when they are reminded of the?Ayat?(proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) of their Lord, fall not deaf and blind thereat.”

So, if the facts are revealed then there is no excuse to accept the interpretation with logic and reasoning and not to fabricate it which is called Bidaha. Unfortunately, this phenomenon has created a negative image in the non-believer who is scared to enter to Islam whereas the political powers have benefitted it to create further misunderstanding and rivalries among the Muslim states. Another point of worth consideration is that it is easy to waste time in debating on minute issues and differences in various sects but people use it to avoid the basic obligations of Islam (towhead, praying, Zakat, fasting, hajj) and social responsibilities and kill time in criticizing or reducing each other which is just a scape-goatting else nothing. It is repeatedly warned to mankind about individual accountability process will be done about the of deeds according to law of justice, in V-28:84-86,”Whosoever brings good (Islamic Monotheism along with righteous deeds), he shall have the better thereof, and whosoever brings evil (polytheism along with evil deeds) then, those who do evil deeds will only be requited for what they used to do.?Verily, He Who has given you (O Muhammad) the Qur'an (i.e. ordered you to act on its laws and to preach it to others) will surely bring you back to the?Ma'ad?(place of return, either to Makkah or to Paradise after your death, etc.). Say (O Muhammad): "My Lord is Aware of him who brings guidance, and he who is in manifest error."?And you were not expecting that the Book (this Qur'an) would be sent down to you, but it is a mercy from your Lord. So never be a supporter of the disbelievers.”

People, who by Muslim name alone are considered enough to enter paradise, perform activities alike Hindus or Christians through rituals of polytheism. Some modern Muslims with fake concept of Islam apply it for just social gatherings, fashion and parties by passing a care-free and self-coded life pattern. Such Muslims interpret the religious code to meet their personal needs. In this process, they adopt those sects which provide them loop holes to meet their goals. Even if they follow others’ paths, they copy the non-believing, wealthy foreigners by ignoring the practicing of the obligatory duties and just following rituals, visiting shrine, bowing to Pirs, etc., to claim that their fertility is proof they will get paradise too. It is a reminder for such people in V-10:34-36,?Say: "Is there of your (Allah's so-called) partners one that originates the creation and then repeats it?" Say: "Allah originates the creation and then He repeats it. Then how are you deluded away (from the truth)?" Say: "Is there of your (Allah's so-called) partners one that guides to the truth?" Say: "It is Allah Who guides to the truth. Is then He, Who gives guidance to the truth, more worthy to be followed, or he who finds not guidance (himself) unless he is guided? Then, what is the matter with you? How judge you?"?And most of them follow nothing but conjecture. Certainly, conjecture can be of no avail against the truth. Surely, Allah is All-Aware of what they do.”

It is not true that the curse of Allah is only for the non-Muslims. Whichever person (race, gender, caste, region, etc.) betrays the Authority and deviates from prescribed direction is liable to the same punishment as a traitor to the Master. So, there is no written stamp or Islamic version that without practicing the compulsory obligatory duties and following the monotheistic principles by following the Prophet’s model, a person is on a right path. Certain present day self-claimed preachers have created their own version of religion and claim that only those who follow their version will go to paradise. (Against the verdict for a nation, caste or class proven for prescribed deeds with submission to Allah‘s set principle criteria). So, law of nature is fixed for all. Therefore if someone betrays, prophet reminded them that he is not responsible of other’s fate, V-10:41-44,” And if they belie you, say: "For me are my deeds and for you are your deeds! You are innocent of what I do, and I am innocent of what you do!" And among them are some who listen to you, but can you make the deaf to hear, even though they apprehend not??And among them are some who look at you, but can you guide the blind, even though they see not??Truly! Allah wrongs not mankind in aught; but mankind wrong themselves.
