وَسَارِعُوا إِلَىٰ مَغْفِرَةٍ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ
وَجَنَّةٍ عَرْضُهَا السَّمَاوَاتُ وَالْأَرْضُ أُعِدَّتْ لِلْمُتَّقِينَ
“And hasten to forgiveness from
your Lord and a garden as wide as the heavens and earth, prepared for the
righteous”
When the enemies join forces, to
destroy the Deen of Allah, When the Sharia of Allah is belittled, and the
Messenger of Allah sallallahu alaihi wasallam is mocked, when the Muslims are
oppressed, and mischief widespread, when the true callers are imprisoned, and
the word jihad omitted, Oh you who are oppressed by the hands of tyrants Oh you
who are distressed by the situation of the Ummah Know that the Victory of Allah
is near.
For; This is the religion of
Allah the Creator of Heavens and Earth, No doubt Allah will keep sending His
glorious soldiers, the best of His creation to protect & safeguard the firm
Religion of Islam.
This is the Ummah of Muhammad
sallallahu alaihi wasallam which produced Sahabas of Great Caliber most of whom
took their last breath in the battlefields never to give up even when their
limbs were cut off and their bodies mutilated. And no doubt their successors
and grandsons will rise to irrigate the oasis of faith and action with their
blood to aid the Ummah of Islam as time goes by.
This is the Muslim Ummah of Jihad
in which, no doubt mother’s would keep giving birth to heroes and wives would
keep sending their husbands out of comfort of their life into the cross fire of
guns and swords never to return unless in shrouds of lifelessness.
That is when we see the Lions of
Allah moving killing and roaring “Labbaik ya Allah” in the battlefields
beginning from the deserts of Arabia to the horn of Africa over to the torabora
proceeding to open the gate of Ash Sham and finally to al Quds.
That is when we see the
magnificent men who are willing to fasten the bridges of Deen with their bodies
in response to kuffar’s invasion for nothing but the reward of Paradise
responding to the call of Jihad Fi Sabilillahi when it is announced from every
corner of the earth; from north to south and from east to west.
They are the Lions of monotheism
and the moths of Prophethood, standing in the vanguard of the Ummah defending
the Kalimah La ilaha ill Allah. Whose hearts are filled with love of being
killed for the sake of Allah and whose hearts are filled with hatred of enemies
for the sake of Allah.
At one point this very person may
be induced by this world forgetting the hereafter but by the will of Allah
sunhanahu wata alaa, the turner of hearts brings him out of darkness into
light. After true guidance starts to shine through his life, Allah becomes more
beloved than anything else in his life. Tears roll down his cheeks in Salatul
Tahajjad. He feels the pain of Muslims in his heart for Muslims are like one
body, if one limb is hurting then the rest of the body hurts. As he moves he
sees that indigence and indignity has becomes fate of the Ummah. He sees the
prevailing kufr with Wahn submerged in the hearts of Muslims. Realization dawns
upon him that the aid to the religion of Allah is only through Jihad.
He starts to write the history of
sacrifice and devotedness with his heart moving here and there looking for
Hijrah to the lands of Jihad like a fish wanting to be in the water. He would
cry tears of truth and he would not rest until he gets to the lands of Jihad to
help the Ummah to once again raise the banner of Tawheed and eliminate the
Disbelievers.
It may be a journey of trials and
tribulations, prison and torment but he gives the message to every kuffar’s
squadron and leaders that he can slay his neck for the Tawheed of Allah but he
would not submit to the sills of their Thagooth with a single beat left in his
heart. (In sha Allah)
These are the Soldiers of Allah
whose sweat and blood paves the road of the Deen and whose torn bodies become
the brick of it pillars. For you will see them with greed and eagerness for the
everlasting Jannatul Firdawus which is wider than the heavens and the earth.
For they become the Martyrs rushing towards the pleasure of their Lord the true
Lord of the heavens and the earth.”
