Freemasons
bismillah
assalamu alaikum
I was just watching on the Sharjah channel a religious program called Safwatul Safwah. The sheikh giving the lecture is ٍٍSheikh Umar abdul Kaafi. Usually the lectures revolve around the Quraan and its tafsir and some other spiritual aspects of this deen. I watched several of his talks and mashallah he is quite good. Today, however, he decided to enter the field of politics.
He was speaking about the story of Moses and banu Israaeel. About halfway through the lecture he started talking about freemasonry and the Illuminati and the protocols and some other garbage about the great plan in the shadows to take over the world.
First of all I will not even try to show the idiocy of such a theory and I honestly don't care about the signs, the books and what leaked documents say. Whether such a theory is true or not is also none of my concern. I honestly do think the sheikh is a good scholar, but my request to him is to remain within the field of spirituality and I will whole heartidly listen to him. But once he entered politics he showed his complete incompetence and absolute ignorance in the state of the ummah.
There are Muslims in the Muslim world who cannot find food to put on their plates. Jobs are difficult to find and education is in the garbage, nay even the Islamic education is not taught to its full capacity. Go to any of those Muslims in the street and ask them how much do they see the effect of Freemasonry on their lives. In fact, did ANY of us saw any effect of freemasonry in our lives? The fact of the matter is, whether we "expose" Freemasonry or not it still wouldn't give food to the hungry man in the street. It still wouldn't give me the opportunity to have a decent education in my home country. The fact of the matter is, our problem is a problem within our society and could only be solved if we look within our own circles and solved it. If there is a party in the US that is trying to take over the world (for the past several hundred years may I add) then so be it. IF such a theory is infact true, what exactly are you going to do about it? What? What's the plan? Or are these people who believe in such conspiracies just looking for something to read and kill time in?
Once you find a method to feed the people, give them security and the ability to live by Islam, THEN we turn to such talk and see what we can do about it. But don't go to a starving nation and start yappering on about some evil shadowy organisation that is aiming for world domination when not only do you not tell us what we should do about it and how we could defeat it, but you also cannot tell us how IF we ever defeat it, could we change the sorry state the ummah is in!
Walaah nothing makes me angrier than Muslim scholars selling lies and ignorance. The prophet (pbuh) had a duwaa which said; "may Allah keep us away from ilmin laa yanf3 (useless knowledge).
Ameen
