“Jihad
(holy fighting in Allah’s cause) is ordained for you
(Muslims)
though you dislike it, and it may be that you dislike a thing which is
good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for you. Allah knows
but you do not know ”.
( Al-Baqarah
: 216 ).
Secondly:
the allegation of terrorism.,
Islam is not a creed of war or terrorism as the west falsely claims., It
is a religion that incorporates the plea for love, peace and tolerance
on earth. Some have misinterpreted the Qur’an verse number sixty of Surat
Al-Anfal where Allah says to us :
“And make ready against them all you can of power, including steeds
of war (tanks, planes, missiles, artillery) to threaten the enemy of
Allah and your enemy.”
(
Al-Anfal : 60 ).
This
is not an invitation to practice terrorism. It is in fact an appeal for
peace and disentangling clashes that lead to bloody fighting and wars.
When Allah, glory to Him, order us to be ready, He does not mean the
actual preparation for waging wars. He orders us to prepare our armies,
training them, secure the most updated types of military weapons, and
then to hold a military parade to be watched and heard by the enemies
who desire to usurp our land, souls and honor, so that terror would
strike their hearts and makes them reluctant in their aggression,
thereby avoiding the initiate of war. Is this a plea for peace, or a
call for terrorism and slaughter, then ? Oh! You who have thinking minds,
contemplate in it.
Thirdly: the
status of woman in Islam… We have explained in this book how Islam,
ever since its outset (1400) years ago up till today., dignified woman
and raised her status when she was degraded, even she could bequeath but
not inherit,
