Peace, patience and levels of faith
“Maulana, as you suggest, the best formula for universal peace is to have patience and forbearance for anything wrong happening around. It means we should avoid to react and retaliate against anything which is wrong. But this kind of act comes under the third lowest level of Iman, as the third level of Iman is to feel bad in the heart about anything wrong happening in front of our eyes. I understand that level one of Iman will be applicable in the case of Islamic rule. That is you stop the thing forcefully which is wrong, but can't we at least speak and tell the people in a peaceful manner?”Asked by شاہنواز ظفر, دلی

1:05:46maulana, agla sawal aaya hai dilli se mr. shahnawaz zafar sahib ka. unhon ne likha hai: "maulana sahib, as you suggest, the best formula for universal peace is to have patience and sabr for anything wrong happening around. it means we should avoid to react or retaliate against anything which is wrong. but this kind of act comes under the third lowest level of imaan, as the third level of imaan is to feel bad in our heart about anything wrong happening in front of our eyes. i understand that level one of imaan will be applicable in the case of Islamic rule. that is you stop the thing forcefully which is wrong, but can't we at least speak and tell the people in a peaceful manner that what you are doing is wrong, and it comes under level two of imaan. similarly, any peaceful protest for a valid reason of wrong activity comes under the level two of imaan.
1:06:58can you please explain how to fit ourselves in imaan categories in today's scenario? we should scale our imaan, keeping in mind the result of what. kindly advice. is hadith ka is se koi ta'alluq nahin jis zamanay mein liya hai aap ne is ko. yeh political protest aur political hungama is ka kya ta'alluq is hadith se? dekhiye, daily life jo hamari hai, is se ta'alluq hai. daily life is ka kuch bhi party se koi ta'alluq nahin hai.
1:07:34yeh jo hungaame ho rahe hain muslim mulkon mein parties ko le kar ke, woh to bilkul haraam kaam hai. haraam, is mein koi shakk hi nahin. yeh jo hai daily life mein, kya agar is mein yeh yeh unhon ne galat kaha hai? yeh ke force kar diya, is ko khatm karte hain. hum matlab nahin, is bi-ghair-e-istita'at humein is mein koshish karna chahiye. is mein istita'at to daily life mein aap jab kahin dekhen, koi cheez
1:08:11burai ki, daily life mein chahe ghar mein ya ghar ke bahar, to wahan humein yeh karna hai ke agar hum mana karte hain, ba-qadar hon to mana karen. lekin mana karne par jhagda barhta ho to hum is ke liye dua karen. dil mein is mein hai ke fa-bi-qalbi ke ma'ani hain ke is ke liye dua karna. is ka harghiz yeh matlab nahin hai ke aap is ke burai khatm karne par khare ho jaayen, protest karne aur naya blood shed ho, naya khoon kharaba ho.
1:08:54jo kehte hain counter productive, wo to haram hai. islam mein haram. sab se pehle aap ko dekhna parega ke jo situation hai, kya wo situation mere qabu ki hai? wohan positive role kar sakta hoon mein? nahi to chup chap ja ke masjid ja ke dua kijiye. yeh to bilkul haram hai ke aap karne ki position mein nahi hain. aap jhanda le ke khare ho jayen aur is ke baad goliyan chalen aur bomb barsen aur log maren kathen. yeh yeh is ka is hadith se is ka koi talluq nahi. wo to super haram hai, bilashuba. jo aaj kal ho raha hai musalmanon mein jagah jagah, yeh sab haram hai.
1:09:31haram, is ka is ko hadith se koi talluq nahi. hadith mein hai ke peaceful tareeqe se, result oriented tareeqe se, baqt istitaat aap agar kisi burai ke bare mein kuch kar sakte hain to kijiye. nahi to chup chup chap ja ke masjid mein dua kijiye. aur political protest ka to hergiz hergiz talluq nahi is se. is hadith se bilkul is ka talluq nahi. mein is ko political protest ko haram samajhta hoon. is is liye haram samajhta hoon ke sahaba ne kabhi aisa kiya nahi, rasool Allah ne kabhi aisa kiya nahi.
1:10:05makkah mein wo sab masail maujood the jis ko le kar kaha ke political protest kiya jata hai, opposition kya thi. wo rasool Allah ne aisa nahi kiya. is wajah se mein is ko haram kehta hoon. yani opposition ke jo tareeqe aaj kal chal rahe hain duniya mein, rights ko le kar ke aur political demand ko le kar, wo sab ke asbab maujood the makkah mein. rasool Allah ne nahi kaha is ko. to musalman karte hain to is ko feal haram karte hain. mujhe zara bhi is mein shakk nahi ke haram hai. yeh jo hadith mein hai, wo sirf yeh hai ke rozmarra ki zindagi mein, ghar ke andar, ghar ke bahar, aap logon ko naseehat karen.
1:10:45koi baat dekha hai to naseehat karen, bashart ke aap ko wohan par baat aur bigadne ka andesha na ho. misaal ke taur par dekhiye, masjidon mein ek ek ek imam phat ke masjid mein aa gaya. aap ka khayal hai ke imam jo hai galat imam hai? to kya karte hain? muqtadi is ka hungama khara karte hain. is ke phir namaz najayaz hai. yeh bilkul galat kaam hai. yeh
1:11:12aap ko sirf yeh haq hai ke muqtadiyon se kahin ke yeh imam sahi nahi hai to aur hum imam ko badal len. narmi se kahin, agar muqtadi tayar is ke nahi hain to chup chap se aap namaz parh ke chale jaiye. aur kuch aap ko haq nahi kuch karne ka. to khamosh aur result oriented naseehat is se murad hai. bas is se zyada kuch nahi. result oriented naseehat, is se zyada kuch nahi. yani result oriented counseling. is hadith mein
1:11:47result oriented counseling ki baat kahi gayi hai, na ke protest ki. protest bilkul haram hai islam mein. Maulana, agla sawal Miss Naghma Siddiqui ka hai Delhi se.
