"When your lord took their offspring from the Children of Adam's loins, and made them bear witness about themselves: 'Am I not your lord?'; they said: 'Of course, we testify to it!' lest you might say on the on Resurrection Day: 'We were unaware of this;' or lest you say: ' it was only our forefathers who associated previously; we are offspring following them. Will you wipe us out because of what futile men have done?' Thus we spell out signs so that they may repent" [7-172-4]
There is an interesting phenomenon in the modern muslim world concerning arrogance. Everyone in dar-ul-Islam is speaking but no one is listening.
Everyone has its own funny ideas about the Islamic law without even grasping the fundamental pilliars of the Shariia. There is confusion in the Islamic world over every and anything. Everyone wants to express but no one is there to watch and listen. In the preserved tablet we are told over and over again to "observe in the sovereignty over Heaven and Earth and whatever God has created of any sort. "{7-185} According to tradition our Nabi-e-karem(SAW) was a very silent man. He spoke very little and whatever he spoke, he spoke the truth.
This world is not an illusion nor it is a dream. It is very important for muslims to realize and reflect on it. Illusions are not only performed on television they are now embedded into modern human psyche. Muslims should know that this world is no joke, its real, its happening and if your are not ready to meet your Lord right now, then you better start preparing right now. Modern Muslims have been put into a disenchanted state of past glory and nationalism. Most muslims proud themselves of their glorious past or the love they have for their country. But what are they doing right now? what are they doing themselves? Can't they see that we are in a horrific condition. Anyone and everyone is marching into our lands and robbing our resources and mineral and humiliating us and robbing us. But still we fail to realize and reality and fall into the disillusioned state. This is partly due to modern era of bread and circus instead we have movies and McDonalds. The concept are the same but the names have changed. Until we realize that there are political and military powers out to destroy our future, we will be humilated and beaten day after day.
We muslim should commit ourselves, emerge ourselves in the revival of the traditional islamic studies through Quran, Sunnah and traditions as interpreted by the rightly guided servants. Education makes man reflective, honorable, humble and quiet. But truely to whom "God lets go astray will have no guide; He leaves them groping along in their arrogance and that exactly the state modern muslims are in. Its an era when muslims look towards demos or other corrupted, futile and un worthy ideology concepts to solve their tribulations.
