FB Q&A: Why Didn’t the Prophet (saw) Ask Nusra (Material Support) from Quraish?

Question: To clarify the question, was the Messenger’s (saw) refusal to ask Nusra (material support) from Quraish because they were not qualified to provide it in the first place, or just because they rejected Islam, and I mean the leaders of leaders of Makkah? If that is the case, didn’t the Messenger (saw) ask Nusra […]

Indeed, Khalid ibn Al-Walid (ra) is a Model for the Muslim Military Officers in Siding with the Great Deen of Islam and its Noble Ummah

The entry of Khalid ibn Al-Walid ibn al-Mughirah (ra) into the fold of Islam, and his unflinching support for Islam and the Muslims, was nothing but a wise choice from a brave warrior.

It is Time for the Islamic Khilafah to Resolve the Civilizational Conflict with the West, Ending the Affliction upon Humankind (2)

Modernist secular Western thinking began as a reaction to the oppression of the Church, clergymen, tsars and monarchs, a reaction of so-called humanism and humanitarian thinking against theological thinking. This humanism marginalized every religious matter attributed to God, placing Man as the center of the universe. It was upon the flimsy claim that his “mighty” […]

In the Seeking of Nusrah and Power, why is Nusrah Sought from the Army, whilst Revival is Sought from the People of Power?

Muslims are living in desperate circumstances under rulers who went far beyond in their dealings with the Western disbelievers, who betrayed Allah (swt), His Messenger (saw) and His Deen to their core and bartered away the issues of the Ummah. We see that the idea of change has ripened amongst the Ummah, which has become […]

[أَفَحُكْمَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ يَبْغُونَ وَمَنْ أَحْسَنُ مِنَ اللَّهِ حُكْماً لِقَوْمٍ يُوقِنُونَ] “Then is it the judgement of [the time of] ignorance they desire?

The Ruling on Participation in the Republic Presidential Elections

Participation in the presidential elections on October 24 is forbidden for Muslims. And the evidence is: the system ordained in the Shariah is the Khilafah (Caliphate) system. The republican system that is based on the democratic system is not the system of government in Islam. The person who will be at the head of the […]
