Are We Real Muslims?
By: Kayhan Int’l Staff Writer
Almost all Muslim countries celebrated the birthday of the Prophet of Peace over the past day or two with heads of states, ulema, politicians, cultural figures and the public reaffirming their allegiance to the ideals of the person who rid the Arabian Peninsula of polytheism and fratricide and transformed a sizeable part of Planet Earth into the monolithic Islamic Ummah.
Were their expressions of joy for Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) mere words bordering on hypocrisy or real commitment to his behaviour and practice that warrant solidarity among brethren of faith and united stand against the enemies of humanity!
Do the Arab and other Muslim countries follow these dynamic teachings to help each other in times of crisis in order to defeat the stratagems of devilish powers?
The answer is a big “NO”.
Look at the present condition of Muslims worldwide. Glance at the genocide in Gaza by the illegal Zionist entity. Observe the situation in and around the Persian Gulf that the terroristic US has turned into a catastrophic zone for all West Asia through its war and economic sanctions in complicity with Israel.
Have the littoral and regional states, as well as the Muslim countries of Asia and Africa, rallied behind the victim Iran against the terrorism of Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu?
Did they close the American military bases on their soil and provided the necessary support to the Iranian people in their hour of need?
Are they prepared to help Iran break the American naval blockade that is badly hurting their economy as well?
What prevents them from mobilizing money and military means to enable the long persecuted Palestinians for a mass uprising to liberate Islam’s former qibla Bayt a-Moqaddas?
Is it Islamic to hope that some mediation efforts would make peace possible between an unnecessarily aggressed Iran and a criminal aggressor the US that does not respect any humanitarian principled and is clearly trying to impose its hegemony the Islamic Republic and all the region.
In view of the negative answers to these questions, the regimes of Muslim states, their political and economic experts and others scared of the satanic US and have no fear of Divine Wrath, should do real soul-searching these days while doing lip service to Islam, to take stock of their faith in Prophet Muhammad (SAWA) and the Holy Qur’an?
