Historical Speech of Abul Hasan Ali Nadvi RA for Myanmar Muslims in 1961
If you do not work in religion, one day you will be expelled from Burma
This world is mortal. Everything in this world is devastating.
All of the wealth and wealth will end in one day. What is left for all time is that the name of Allah alone, working in the path of Allah and effort and sacrifice for the sake of Allah.
It's going to be big time now. Now, if you can devote time and time to business and business to devote to the cause of preaching and establishing the religion of Allah, Allah will reward you in this world as the reward for this country and in the Hereafter. And if you do not do this, keep in mind! You can not stay in this country. Not only as a political figure, but in the light of the light given by God in the hearts of every believer, I am saying that it will be impossible for you to remain in this country,
If you do not try hard for din. When such a situation arises, your shops, factories, nothing will be preserved. The only way to safeguard Muslims in any country is to work hard to promote and establish religion, and make the religion stronger.
In this country, where we have been from Burma for a while - here is our most intelligent work, the most urgent and the first work, which is the constant demand of time, that is to introduce the work of din here.
To live here, to gain power, to trade and to save the next generation, it is most important that we define 10-20 years for the time to establish and establish our religion and protect the faith and beliefs of the Muslims here. . Lots of your responsibilities Yet this country is normal. God do not! If this country becomes a Buddhist and you do not do the work of religion, then no one will help you.
That is the demand of time. Keep the eyes and ears open and try to understand that you can not live without this country without Islam. For this reason, now spread the whole country to preach and establish religion, go to villages and villages, deliver the message of Allah. Open the Tawheed and the civilization of Islam and say that Islamic culture should be adopted, keep the Islamic name and stay away from the tradition of shirk and mushriki. For Muslims, taking shirk, participating in any shirk or presenting at shirki ceremony - these are equivalent to death for them. Demonstrate the worthlessness of shirk and idol worship.
And if you show indecision in this work, remember, my brothers! You can not survive in this country.
I'm not talking about any people who say 10 years later! This is a public talk; Anyone aware of the environment and the situation can understand. From this perspective, I say, the great bad day is coming to you. Now, to the cause of Allah, you should fully devote your preaching work. Make Tawheed and Islamic Renaissance a whole range of Burma from one end to the other. Emphasize the education of children.
Either the thought of irtidad or apostasy on the head of any Muslim may not come. You still have the opportunity to do this work. I do not know how much time left this opportunity! If you take advantage of this opportunity and dedicate yourself to the preaching of the religion, it will be established by the grace of Allah and will be established in this country and it will be decided to remain in the state of Insha Allah. In this, Allah will protect your business, Izzat-Abrau, wife and children. In this country you can live your head high. It is not impossible that Allah will give you the responsibility of running this country. Because the power of state is essentially a crop of establishment of the religion of Allah.
If I had strength and ability, but not for a few days; For two, four, five years, you could lock your shops, shut down the factories, and throw out everyone from the house and say that now your only work is to spread the whole country for the promotion of religion. If you have finished the meal, you will eat the leaves and if you tear off the cloth you will have to clamp them. Only for 10 years will they be engaged in promotion of religion. Only then Islam and Muslims can be saved in this country. We have been enjoying the harvest even after 1300 years, instead of the 23-year labor of the companions.
The situation in your country is very shocking Now you have no other work. Forget about all kinds of differences in each other. Throw all disagreements between different factions under the feet. Get out of time, take time to talk. Go to shout Apply for weeks or three days. Decide for decision-10 years will be able to reach every village and village in every country and the invitation to din to every household will be reached. This religion has reached us because this Ummah has given all of its possessions for the sake of preaching.
Remember it! Your existence and residence here are not just for food and for trade and commerce. You have been sent here for the promotion and establishment of Islam in this country. Not only for the increase of the number of people, but to save the mankind from the fire of Hell, the creation of God, to bring this folly and the life of an animal away from it.
Today the situation is such that the inflammation of irtidad and apostasy among the Muslims is spreading. I have heard that the Muslim is leaving the mosque and going to Mandapa! Someone is going to become a Christian in the world! So now you have two custodians. One is to protect the faith of their Muslim brothers and sisters, and the second is to invite these non-Muslim brothers and sisters of Islam to Islam. Remember, it will not be said that we are building a mosque here. The work of making a mosque is right, but if a Muslim becomes a apostate or a Muslim is destroyed, then you are responsible for it.
