Responding to criticism of Muslim backwardness

maulana, agla sawal lucknow se hai, ayaz khan sahib ne bheja hai. unhon ne likha hai: "maulana, i have many non muslim friends and they often ask me a simple question that why there is so much illiteracy and poverty among muslims. they attribute it to outdated islamic ideology that is mainly quran and say that if muslims would have been more scientific in their thinking then their state would have been much better. but because they follow outdated quran, therefore there is so much of poverty and illiteracy. maulana, how should i address such ques tions?" dekhiye, yeh galat hai. poverty musalmanon mein poverty nahin hai. aap muslim society mein jaiye, khoob kharch karte hain log, marketing khoob karte hain, shadiyon mein khoob kar karte hain, paisa bhi khoob kama rahe hain.

yeh bilkul yeh myth hai, myth yeh baat nahin hai. phir se aap survey ke survey kijiye. isi jis colony mein hum hain, yeh jo colony hai, yeh hindu logon ki colony samajhati thi. pehle hindu logon ki colony, aaj is mein majority musalman ki hai, khoob paisa kamaya unhon ne aur jo ghar hindu logon ke thay, usay khareed liya. to yeh yeh to ek myth hai, aisa kuch nahi hai. Is mulk mein bohat achi baat yeh hai ke sab ke liye mawaqe khule hue hain, opportunities sab ke liye khuli hui hain. khoob kamao, khoob khao, khoob business banao, barhao, taraqqi karo, yeh sab ho raha hai India mein. Yeh myth hai ke nahi ho raha hai.

main ne khud jo ghar hamare sathiyon ne jo building khareedi thi, yeh do building jahan hum hain aur C one, C 29, yeh dono Hindu logon ke paas theen, aaj hamare paas hain. yeh myth hai, bilkul is ka koi talluq Islam se nahi hai, na waqe se hai. Doctor Naghma Siddiqui ne Delhi se likha hai: "Maulana, I understood clearly today the importance of tajdeed or revival from your example of derailment of Islam due to influences of the time and bringing Islam back in its track. I reiterate my commitment to this tajdeedi mission for the rest of my life." Sajid Ahmed Khan sahib, mashallah, mashallah.

Sajid Ahmed Khan sahib ne Nagpur se likha hai: "The best way to remove the darkness is to spread the brightness . Maulana sahib, you have shown the best way to remove the darkness of hatred and complaints by the light of love and well wishing. That's a noble cause. I pray may Allah guide all of us to get the spirit of da'wah and be firm in this path till the last breath." Mashallah. Maulana, agla sawal bheja hai Maulana Iqbal Umri sahib ne. Unhon ne apna comment aur question kiya hai.
