Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,

As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh.  (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)

One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

Assalamualaikum brother Burhan Please guide those guys at www.submission.org . They are indeed in great trouble and they need guidance. From my point of view, you are quite knowledgeable in Qur`an and Hadiths and could you please tell them the truth about Islam. They are exagerrating and misinteprating Allah`s words.Im asking you as a brother to guide them and give them proofs from the Qur`an that we must follow the prophet`s Sunnahs. Thank you.

Jazak Allah

Answer:

Guide the moderators of submission.org

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person, no grave, no prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad(saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

My beloved brother in Islam, we have written several articles regarding the misguidance and misrepresentation of the deen of Islam by the moderators of the site ‘submission.org’. Allah Subhanah guides only those people who wish to be guided aright. But if one does not wish to be guided aright, or is adamant in his views regardless of the Teachings and Guidance of the Quran and Sunnah; then it is not within our power as human beings to bring them to the Right Path by force!

The All-Knowing Lord is well-aware of the mischief makers, and whenever He Wills, He has the Power and Might to take them to account. Allah Subhanah has made it the obligatory duty of every believer to guide mankind to the Truth in the best and most polite manner. If one accepts the invitation to the true deen of Islam, he does so for his own good; and if one rejects the invitation, he shall be responsible for his own deeds in the Just Court of Allah Subhanah.

The administrators of the ‘submission.org’ site are extremely opinionated people, and are absolutely against the idea of following the Sunnah of the Messenger of Allah (saws). We have tried to convince them giving them clear and manifest Aayahs from the Glorious Quran, but to no avail!

In our humble opinion, we believe it is better to focus our energies and efforts on the brothers and sisters who are sincerely seeking the Truth from the Quran and Sunnah, rather than pursue people who have decided and determined to follow a path of error.

May Allah Subhanah guide them to the Straight Path of Islam before the Day comes when no repentance and excuse will be accepted for their rejection of faith.

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

Your Brother in Islam,

Burhan
