Allaah, through his Grace, Generosity,
Bounty and Kindness, granted us the ability to visit our brothers in
England. Mentioning everything that took place there from the beginning
to the end would take a long time, so I will just extract the important
parts from my journey.
Before I begin I would like to remind you
and myself of something important – and it is what Allaah has blessed
the Muslims with generally and the Students of Knowledge with
specifically from the blessing of Islaam. Allaah says concerning it:
“Today I
have perfected your Religion for you and I have completed My Blessing on
you and I am pleased with Islaam as a Religion for you.”[Surah Al-Maa’idah: 3]
“Whoever
takes other than Islaam as a Religion it will never be accepted from him
and in the Hereafter he will be from among the losers.”[Surah Aali ‘Imraan:85]
And He says about it:
إِنَّ ٱلدِّينَ عِندَ ٱللَّهِ ٱلۡإِسۡلَـٰمُۗ
“Verily, the (only true) Religion in the sight of Allaah is Islaam.”[Surah Aali‘Imraan: 19]
This is the Islaam, of which whoever dies upon it, is enacting the Commandment of Allaah, where He says:
“O you who believe! Fear Allaah as He ought to be feared and do not die except while you are Muslims.”[Surah Aali ‘Imraan: 102]
Whoever dies upon Islaam will be from
those who are successful. “Successful is the one who accepts Islaam. He
is granted sufficiency and Allaah makes him content with what He has
given him.” [Reported by Muslim from the narration of ‘Abdullaah bin
‘Amr]
This Islaam, which many people have
abandoned, and which some do not know anything about except the fact
that they call themselves Muslims, is a blessing, O servants of Allaah.
If there were no merit to it other than that the one who dies on it will
be from the people of Paradise, (it would be sufficient). It is a
blessing that will bring you happiness in both this world and the next:
“Whoever
does a good deed – whether male or female – while he or she is a true
believer, indeed, to him We will give a good life (in this world), and
(in the Hereafter) We will surely give them their reward according to
the best of what they used to do.”[Surah An-Nahl: 97]
One cannot be a “true believer” unless he
accepts Islaam. So this is a promise from Allaah, Lord of the Worlds –
that the person that adheres to this Islaam will have a good and
pleasant life.
