Bismillah!
Al Hamdulillah!
Wa AsSalatu AsSalamu A’ala Rasulillah!
Often most people pose these questions,
"Where's Islamic Shariah?""Which land is ruled by Allah's Shariah today?"
Sadly and surprisingly, they pose these questions to validate their stay in the Kuffar’s land, under the Kuffar’s authority, thinking and believing that what they are saying is true.
La Hawla Wa La Quwatta Illa Billah!
But the truth is otherwise.
What if we reverse the questions?
Let’s ask you a set of questions here:
When you live in a Kuffar country, aren’t the Kuffar totally and entirely impose their ‘Shariah’ on you?
How come you choose to submit yourself entirely to the ‘Kuffar’s Shariah’?
Why don’t you move away from entirely submitting to the ‘Kuffar’s Shariah’ to a land where you don’t have to submit to the ‘Kuffar’s Shariah’ entirely?
Why don’t you move away from living entirely under the Kuffar’s authority to a land where the authority are those who believe in Allah?
Does a Muslim-populated country follow ‘Kuffar’s Shariah’ entirely?
Does a Muslim-populated country impose the ‘Kuffar’s Shariah’ entirely on you?
Does living in a Muslim-populated country means living under the Kuffar’s authority entirely?
You know the answer.
And if you’re really truthful to yourself, only understanding this would have been sufficient for you to move away from living under the Kuffar’s authority.
But I know what arguments are boggling into your mind.
“They will put you in jail for saying less than what you can say here”,
“Political corruption crippled the society from top to bottom”,
“You can’t even earn Halal income there which is so easy to do here”,
“There’s no safety and security of life in there”,
“You can’t even maintain a decent life there what comes very easy here”
And the list goes on and on…..
And all these are true.
100%.
I have really no doubt about all these statements.
But then, I must say, these arguments come only when you look at the issue of ‘submitting to the Kuffar’s Shariah’ narrowly.
So, how did you look at the way out narrowly?
You thought about ‘Where to make Hijrah’ before you seriously thought and determined about ‘Why Hijrah?’
And then,
You regarded (implied by your saying, ‘Where’s Allah’s Shariah?’) a land as a ‘Land of Kufr’ which is ruled by a believer as on the same scale as an original Land of Kufr ruled by the original Kuffar.
And for many, the misguidance of misinterpretation of ‘staying for Dawah’
Or,
You thought leaving the Kuffar’s land means only going back to your own country.
Or,
You thought leaving away from Kuffar’s authority means only going to the Arab countries under those dictators and corruptors.
Or
You thought leaving away from obeying ‘Kuffar’s Shariah’ means moving to a land where you will be able to maintain the same luxury, status, comfort and same standard of life.
That’s absolutely a narrow thought.
You didn’t even consider the criteria for choosing a land for Hijrah.
Now, why did you think it so narrowly in the first place?
Only because you didn’t realize the importance of moving away from living under the Kuffar’s authority entirely.
Only because you did not understand the danger of submitting entirely to the ‘Kuffar’s Shariah’.
Therefore, I invite you to read these articles under, ‘Why Hijrah?’ from this site to understand the obligation of moving away from the Kuffar’s authority.
Only then, if Allah wills,
You might look at the issue of moving away from Kuffar’s authority entirely in its proper perspective.
Only then, If Allah wills,
you might look at the issue of Hijrah from the Quranic perspective. Once you understand it, you will be determined to leave.
Only then,
you will come to a point where you will work on finding ways to move away from obeying the ‘Kuffar’s Shariah’ entirely.
Only then,
instead of looking for a ‘Land of Shariah’, you would look to move away
from living under the Kuffar’s authority entirely,
from following the Kuffar’s Deen entirely and
from obeying the ‘Kuffar’s Shariah’ entirely.
Therefore, my brother,
the main consideration is to move away from living under the Kuffar’s authority entirely. This is the mindset and intention that a Muslim must have in the first place.
And here, in this Forum, we are in that quest of searching for such land because we believe in Allah’s word.
And He, Al-A’leem, the All-Knowledgeble, the owner of the land informed us that there is Allah’s land where we can live without obeying and submitting to the ‘Kuffar’s Shariah’.
Why Hijrah? Warning – Allah’s earth is spacious, therefore, you must move away from submitting to the ‘Kuffar’s Shariah’!
And we invite you to join us, and be part of this journey.
And we seek Allah’s help and support.
May our Rabb facilitate our Hijrah.
May Allah Ajja Wa Jalla guide us to His pleasure.
Ameen.
