Maulana, agla sawal Chennai se hai, Maulana Iqbal Umri ka. unhon ne likha hai: "Maulana, hadith mein aaya hai ke zamanay ko gaali mat do. mera sawal yeh hai ke kya is ka matlab hai ke negative ko positive mein badlo, na ke negative remark do?" is ke baray mein kuch batayein. woh hadith hai ke "la tasubbu al-dahr " to yeh is se kuch logon ne is mein yeh bhi hai ke "anta al-dahr". to is se kuch logon ne wahy wajood ka maslak nikal liya, woh bilkul galat hai.

sach poochhen to is zamane mein jo musalman jo chala rahe hain, politics, woh woh woh hai bura hadith se ke doosron ke khilaaf shikayaten karna, doosron ke khilaaf protest karna, logon ko zalim bata kar hangama karna, un ke khilaaf is ki is ki is ko mana kiya gaya hai. Yani politics of opposition, sari duniya mein musalman politics of opposition chala rahe hain. negative hangame opposition ki politics jahan bhi dekhen, chahe muslim mulk ho ya ghair muslim mulk ho, har jagah hangame hain. to main samajhta hoon ke is se mana kiya gaya hai aur wahi is ka matlab hai ke tareekh mein positive item talash karo, waqeyat ke darmiyan positive ai

tem talash karo. Kyun ke agar negativity mein phanse rahoge to to negativity khatam hone wali nahin hai. Kyun ke aap achhi tarah samajh lena chahiye logon ko ke jo yani nakhushgawar waqeyat ho rahe hain, jis ko aap zulm kehte hain, woh insan woh kisi zalim ke navy se nahin hai. is liye hai ke Allah ke kesh plan ke mutabiq insan ko azadi azadi di gayi. Azadi ko misuse karta hai, woh misuse kar ke woh paighambar ko qatl karta hai, woh khalifa ko qatl karta hai, woh jangain chhedta hai. To jab tak insan ki azadi na chheen li jaye, tab tak yeh sab baqi rahega. to chheen ki azadi chheegi sirf qayamat mein. To yeh waqt yeh west of time hai. Mere khayal se aisi aisi sahafat, aisi leadership, aisi tehrikein, yeh sab time ka west karna hai.

logon ko yahi karna chahiye ke woh jin yani is duniya mein jo jannat ka item hai, us ko talash karen, us ko talash kar ke us se positive food len apne liye. yeh yahi karna hai har ek ko. Maulana, agla sawal Jammu Kashmir se Junaid Hassan sahib ka hai. Unhon ne likha hai: "In Bukhari Book of Faith, it is mentioned that Prophet Muhammad had said: 'I will fight with people till they testify that God is one.'" Maulana, please elaborate and explain this hadith.
