Rebellion by Khawarij Taliban & Shari’ah

Read eBook as WebDoc or PDF

Introduction:

Three decades after introduction of the religious militancy by USA to defeat USSR in Afghanistan and later US invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan after 9/11 many armed groups have resurfaced in Afghanistan to resist US lead NATO occupation. As fallout some groups have rebelled against the state of Pakistan on the pretext of establishing Shari’ah rule. Known as Taliban, they consider the rulers and other Muslims to be disbelievers, apostates who must be killed unless they returns to the rule of “their brand of extremist ideology”, the claim rejected by Muslim scholars on the grounds of heretic extremist Takfiri doctrine of Khwarij of early days of Islam. It is considered as a doctrinal deviation [bid’at], heresy. Leaders such as Hassan al-Hudaybi (died,1977) and Yousf al–Qaradawi reject ‘Takfir’ as un-Islamic and marked by bigotry and zealotry. Dr.Tahir ul Qadari has issued a comprehensive edict (fatwa). Such narrow mindedness has exacerbated the evil of sectarianism and the resulting intolerance among the masses has led to a dangerous trend towards sectarian militancy. Recently even the Saudi, Salafi scholars also condemned and strongly rejected the ‘Takfir’ doctrine.
The Muslims have always been ruled by the Islamic law [Shari’ah] in the empires and Caliphates till end of Ottomans in 1918. Even the Moghul in India known for their tolerance of non Muslims adhered to Shari’ah. In the book, ‘The Fall and Rise of the Islamic State’, Noah Feldman, a Harvard Law professor, writes: “The scholars exercised control over meaning of Shari’ah, interpreting the divine law and acting as a restraint on the caliph’s power. The caliph relied on the scholars for legitimacy and divine sanction, which created an institutional balance of power that gave stability and longevity to the Islamic state’. Feldman argues that this institutional balance of power is what ensured justice in the Ottoman Empire, and that it is also exactly what is lacking in today’s Islamism”.
After the fall of Abbasid Caliphate, the Tatar (Mongols) abided by the law that they inherited from their king Genghis Khan who wrote Al-Yasiq, for them. This book contains some rulings that were derived from various religions, such as Judaism, Christianity and Islam. Many of these rulings were derived from his own opinion and desires. Later on, these rulings became the followed law among his children, preferring them to the Law of the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger (pbuh). This was opposed by the Muslim scholars like Imam Ibn Taymiyah and Ibn Kathir. During four centuries most of Muslim countries were colonised by Christian West who introduced their law based upon Roman law. On independence, the rulers under influence of West continued the same practice. The people’s desire to be governed by Shari’ah is ignored, the Islamic provisions introduced in the constitution have not been implemented in true spirit, which have been exploited by extremists to declare others as apostate, creating anarchy which only helps the enemies of Pakistan and Muslims. Islam does not preach extremism and violence. Allah says: “We have made you (true Muslims) a moderate nation” (Quran;2:143). Here effort has been made to analyse this extremist ideology in the light of Quran and Sunnah of Prophet (pbuh) and to ascertain the religious legitimacy of their armed revolt against Islamic Republic of Pakistan on the pretext of implementation of Shari’ah, its relevance vis-à-vis, Islamic concept of Disbelief, Apostasy Major & Minor Sin, Crime, Repentance, Mercy, Forgiveness & Punishment here and hereafter. At the end rebuttal to the ‘illogical logic’ of Taliban, published in a renowned Urdu newspaper have included.

Conclusion:

The doctrine of Takfiri Taliban Pakistan is not based upon any direct clear commandment or Ayah of Qur’an, it is derivative, based upon analogy (taweel), which can have more than one opinions. “The fact is that most of them follow nothing but mere conjecture and conjecture is in no way a substitute for the truth. Surely Allah is well aware of all that they do.”(Qur’an;10:36). However through their violent terrorist acts, Taliban are violating the clear verses (Ayahs) of Quran and Hadith. No Muslim worth the name will ever dare to even think of rejecting or violating the unambiguous commandments of Allah, clearly mentioned in Qur’an and Hadith, summarised here:
·       Disregarding the Ayahs, which annuls good deeds: Qur’an;18:104-105.
·       Killing a believer, major sin: Qur’an;4:93. “A Muslim is the one who avoids harming Muslims with his tongue and hands.”(Sahih Bukhari Hadith: 1.9)
·       Killing of innocent human not permitted: Qur’an;5:32, 17:33.
·       Mischief on land rejected: Qur’an;28:77,2:11-12,  2:60, 206, 3:63, 7:56, 5:33-34.
·       Creating disorder and anarchy on land . (Quran; 5:33 & 4:59)
·       Fighting permitted in defence with in limits – No Transgression: Qur’an;2:190.
·       Kindness to Non Combatants: Qur’an; 60:8.
·       Suicide is not permissible in Islam: Qur’an;2:195,4:29,  Sahih Al Bukhari Hadith Numbr:8.126, Sahih Muslim Hadith. Number.486.
·       Killing by burning not allowed: Sahih Al Bukhari, Hadith, Number.4.259, Sahih Al Bukhari, Hadith, Number.4.260. Bombing & explosions burn the victims.
·       Safety of mosques, monasteries, churches, synagogues & worshippers:  Qur’an;2:114, 22:40).
·       Mutilation of the dead bodies is prohibited: Sahih Muslim Hadith.804.
·       Prohibitions-of killing religious people, women, children, aged, sick people, animals and cutting trees in military expeditions: Sahih Al Bukhari, Hadith, Number.4.257,258, Al Muwata Hadith, Number;21.10.
·       Freedom of faith-no compulsion: Qur’an;2:256,88:21-24, 45;50,109:6.10:100.
·       No sectarianism :  (Quran;3:105, 6:159).
·       Rebellion against Islamic state and Muslim rulers not allowed: Quran; 4:59
·       Fatwa by scholars is just a non binding opinion, which has no value against clear cut commandments of Quran and Sunnah, specially where it involves lives and unity of Muslim Ummah.
·       Creating mischief [disorder] on land: “..do not spread mischief in the land.”(Qur’an;7:74. 5:33)
In an Islamic order the injunctions of God and the way of the Prophet (peace be on him) constitute the basic law and paramount authority in all matters. Whenever there is any dispute among Muslims or between the rulers and the ruled the matter should be referred to the Qur'an and the Sunnah, and all concerned should accept with sincerity whatever judgement results. Taliban should adhere to the Hadiths forbidding armed rebellion against Muslim ruler as along as they offer prayer and does not manifest open infidelity. The Qur’anic command not to create disorder on land (4:59) should be practiced. Any weakness shown in non implementation of Shari’ah by rulers does not make them infidel, till they openly reject it, which they don’t. Normal relations with non Muslims not hostile to Muslims are permitted by Allah (60:7-9). Government of Pakistan is bound to honour the international treaties as moral and religious obligation (17:34, 7:32, 23:8). Our beloved Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) has told us to resist the wrong practices of tyrant Muslim rulers peacefully, not through rebellion. Change of governments earlier in Turkey and  in Tunisia & Egypt through peaceful means are recent examples, while in Malaysia, Indonesia and other democratic Muslim countries it is regular practice . Pakistan being democratic country offers peaceful method of change of rulers through power of free media and vote. No group like Takfiri Taliban can be allowed to create disorder in Pakistan on the name of Shari’ah through rebellion. This will only benefit enemies of Islam. Over 35000 innocent Pakistani women, children, young and old & soldiers have been killed by Takfiri Taliban and US drone attacks. The Takfiri Taliban and their sympathisers are requested to use the intellect to discern the truth from falsehood:
إِنَّ شَرَّ الدَّوَابِّ عِندَ اللَّـهِ الصُّمُّ الْبُكْمُ الَّذِينَ لَا يَعْقِلُونَ
 یقیناً خدا کے نزدیک بدترین قسم کے جانور وہ بہرے گونگے لوگ ہیں جو عقل سے کام نہیں لیتے
Verily, the worst of all creatures in the sight of God are those deaf, those dumb people who do not use their intellect.(Quran;8:22)
 لِّيَهْلِكَ مَنْ هَلَكَ عَن بَيِّنَةٍ وَيَحْيَىٰ مَنْ حَيَّ عَن بَيِّنَةٍ
جو ہلاک ہو، دلیل پر  ہلاک ہو اور جو زنده رہے، وه بھی دلیل پر زنده رہے
Who would perish might perish by clear proof, and he who would live might live by clear proof(Quran;8:42)
 قَالَ رَبِّ انصُرْنِي عَلَى الْقَوْمِ الْمُفْسِدِينَ
پروردگار! اس مفسد قوم پر میری مدد فرما
“My Lord, aid me against these mischievous people.(29:30)

Challenges to Faith & Peace


Islam leads the believers towards the attainment of spiritual and ethical peace through total submission to will of God. Any deviation though it may appear to be minor is not acceptable. However while guarding own faith and preaching to others, the Devine Design of Creation must be kept in view: 

“If Thy Lord had so willed, He could have made Mankind one people: but They will not cease to dispute.”(Qur’an;11:118),“The One Who created death and life, so that He may put you to test, to find out which of you is best in deeds: He is the All-Mighty, the All-Forgiving.”(Qur’an;67:2). 
  
Many modern scholars have written on the challenges faced by Islam and Muslims.

The followers of Islam have been facing many challenges, right from the beginning like the hazards of polytheism (shirk), deviations (bid’ah), sectarianism, extremism, militancy and intolerance. At times these threats can be recognized but mostly it is difficult to identify them, hence hard to deal with. Consequently understanding of threats to the faith are very important to guard against falling pray to them inadvertently. Keep reading >>>>>  WebDoc,  PDF

Takfir- Doctrine of Terror



Read online/Download: 

After 911 the world is in state of permanent turmoil, unending wars involving religious extremist groups using Islam to justify their brutalities and heinous crimes against humanity which have no link to Islam. The West is using all propaganda tools to defame Islam. The Muslims world is just paying lip service with few words of condemnation. The political, military, economic strategic and other aspects of this highly bloody oppressive war on religious extremism & terrorism are highlighted in news, media and also deliberated at various forums. However their heretic religious doctrines, the main motivating force of the extremist like ISIS, Taliban, Boko Haram and similar terrorist organizations is given cursory treatment only. An endeavour is being made here to analyze their ideology and see its relevance vis-à-vis established Islamic doctrines and practices.

Background:

USA through CIA created Mujahedeen (Jihadis), who were recruited from around the world to fight in Afghanistan during the Afghanistan war against the Soviet Union in eighties. The CIA and its Saudi and Pakistani and other allies were working with a certain type of Muslim, and in particular especially in Saudi Arabia, they were dealing with people whose style of Islam which has been frequently referred to as Salafi or Wahabi (Deobandi, a subcontinent offshoot), some extremist elements of those people are now being referred to as Takfiris & Khawarij (literally "those who went out"). Later these Jihadis gave birth to al-Qaeda, Taliban in Afghanistan and later in Pakistan titled as TTP “Tehreek Taliban Pakistani”, presently being exterminated by Pakistan Army. The Boko Hahram in Nigeria and ISIS [Islamic States of Iraq and Syria] now called IS also follow same Takfiri ideology.
The self-declared Islamic State (IS; al-Dawlah al-Islāmīyah), which previously called itself the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) or the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS al-Dawlah al-Islāmīyah fī al-ʻIraq wa-al-Shām), and is also known by the Arabic acronym Daʿesh, is the deadliest Takfiri Khwarij Jihadist unrecognized state in Iraq and Syria in the Middle East. In its self-proclaimed status as a caliphate, it claims religious authority over all Muslims worldwide, and aims to bring most Muslim-inhabited regions of the world under its political control, beginning with the region of the Levant which approximately covers Syria, Jordan, Israel/Palestine, Lebanon, Cyprus, and part of southern Turkey.
Takfiri refer to a very extreme brand of Islam, a deviation from Islam. Though an old phenomena but in recent times it goes back historically to the reformer Abdul Wahab about 300 years ago, and that brand of Islam has always – the good side of it is that it is opposes corruption emphasizing purity of early days. The problem is that it basically says everybody who doesn’t think the way they do is corrupt, some go to the further extreme to declare them infidels and so deserves to be killed.
These extremist among Wahabis did engage in a lot of massacres of Shia and Sufi Muslims and made an alliance with the House of Saud about the beginning of the 19th century, and the British encouraged that alliance. The House of Saud, and it’s kind of Wahabi extremists then became a thorn in the side of the Ottoman Empire, and the British used this extremist wing to bring down the Ottoman Empire. The most famous episode of this is when the British secret agent T.E. Lawrence was sent over to Arabia to open up a new front against the Ottoman Turks. As a British secret agent his job was to rally these extremist Wahabi Arabian Muslims against the Ottoman Empire, and to help bring down that Empire. And that effort of course succeeded. Post World War I the Europeans completely took over the Ottoman Empire and basically owned the entire Islamic world at that point.
The partitioning of the Ottoman Empire (1918–1922) was completed after World War-I. The huge conglomeration of territories and peoples that formerly comprised the Ottoman Empire was divided into several new states. The partitioning brought the creation of the modern Arab world and the Republic of Turkey. The League of Nations granted France mandates over Syria and Lebanon and granted the United Kingdom mandates over Mesopotamia (later Iraq,) and Palestine, (later divided into Palestine and Transjordan). The Ottoman Empire's possessions on the Arabian Peninsula became a number of independent states. In 1916 Hussein bin Ali, Sharif of Mecca, established the Kingdom of Hejaz, while the Emirate of Riyadh was transformed into the Sultanate of Nejd. In 1926 the Kingdom of Nejd and Hejaz was formed, which in 1936 became the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The Mutawakkilite Kingdom of Yemen became independent in 1918, while the Arab States of the Persian Gulf became de facto British protectorates, with some internal autonomy.

The British and French partitioned the eastern part of the Middle East (also called "Greater Syria") between them with the Sykes–Picot Agreement. Other secret agreements were concluded with Italy and Russia. The Balfour Declaration encouraged the international Zionist movement to push for a Jewish homeland in Palestine. The Treaty of Sèvres formally acknowledged the new League of Nations mandates in the region, the independence of Yemen, and British sovereignty over Cyprus. The Ottoman Empire had been the leading Islamic state in geopolitical, cultural and ideological terms. The partitioning of the Ottoman Empire led to the rise in the "Middle East" of Western powers, such as Britain and France. Resistance to the influence of these powers came from the Turkish national movement and became more widespread in the post-Ottoman states after World War II.
