Maulana Wahiduddin Khan

Why do ISIS converts become sympathizers of Muslims only?

“It seems that a lot of fighters of ISIS are converted Muslims. What is the reason that these new Muslims who entered into the fold of Islam after reading Quran and other Islamic books do not become sympathizers of humans but become sympathizers of Muslims? What is the reason and how do we counter this trend?”Asked by Maulana Farhad Umri, Delhi

maulana, agla sawal dilli se aaya hai maulana farhad umri ka aur unhon ne likha hai it seems that a lot of fighters of isis are converted muslims. what is the reason that these new muslims who entered into the fold of islam after reading quran and other islamic books do not become sympathizers of humans but become sympathizers of muslims? what is the reason and how do we counter this trend? dekhen, is ko main ne, yani kafi is pe socha, study ki hai. asal cheez yeh hai ke dekhen, yeh jo nسلم hain, woh mutasir hue quran ko padh kar ke, quran ko padh kar mutasir hue.

lekin jab islam mein dakhil hue to phir aa gaye musalmanon mein. quran ka apna koi muashra to hai nahin, koi aisi society nahin hai jis ka naam quran society ho. society to musalmanon ki hai, wahi musalman. to baad ke jo un ki zehan banta hai, un ke baad ko woh sab muslim society banta hai. to goya ke un ka do daur hain: ek pre islam, ek post islam. pre islam mein to unhon ne quran ko padha, is se mutasir hue, lekin post islam mein woh aa gaye musalmanon ke mahaul mein. to yeh musalmanon ke mahaul ki wajah se aisa hua.

yeh bahut bada masla hai ke musalman jo hain, un ka haal wahi ho raha hai ke har cheez ke dar kaan namak rakhna, raft namak chhodna. ab is ka hal yahi hai ke aap hamara jo adab hai, is ko padhaya jaye aur is ka koi hal nahin. maulana, unhon ne ek aur comment bhi bheja hai jis pe woh aap ka bhi view chahte hain. unhon ne likha hai ke haal hi mein ek pakistani writer ne ek survey ki buniyad par yeh likha hai ke pakistan mein ek namazi masjid jate hue darta hai. in logon ka kehna hai ke dunya mein kahin bhi itni insecurity nahin hogi, hatta ke israel mein. aap ka is pe kya comment hai?
52:33
haan, yeh sahi hai. is ki wajah dekhen, yeh hai ke musalman jo hain, woh reh gaye apne hi gheton mein. yeh gheton ki zehniyat hai. yahudiyon ka muamla yeh hua ke woh diaspora mein chale gaye, europe, america mein. modern taleem liya unhon ne. is se un ka woh yeh pehle yahudi waise hi the, un ka zehan badal gaya. to main kehta hoon ke musalmanon mein agar roka na hota inhon ne, yani modern taleem se hamare ulama ne, to aaj musalman qaum mein bahut islaah ho chuki hoti.
53:24
ulama ne modern taleem se musalmanon ko rok kar ke bahut bada zulm kiya musalmanon ke upar. aur yahudi qaum, chuki woh chali gayi diaspora ke baad europe, america mein, to apne aap un ki deconditioning ho gayi. modern taleem musalmanon ki deconditioning karne wala tha, lekin is se ulama ne roka un ko. yeh hai, is lihaz se yeh farq hai. modern taleem jo thi, woh sach poochhen to deconditioning ka bahut achha zariya thi. yahudiyon ki modern taleem ke zariye deconditioning hui aur musalmanon ki nahin hui. maulana, agla sawal professor fareeda khanum ne bheja hai dilli se aur unhon ne likha hai maulana, you faced several situations in life and underwent interactions of different kinds.
