One Worshipping Method
Believers
will SURELY be Superiority over
other nations:
So lose
not heart, nor fall into despair: For you will surely be
Superior if you are true
Believers. (Al_Quraan_003.139)
Non-Believers
will NEVER be
Superior over the Believers:
…And
Never will Allah Grant to the Unbelievers a way (to
triumphs) over the believers. (Al_Quraan_004.141)
Granted
Victory over
non-believers:
And
whoever takes Allah and His messenger and those who believe for
a guardian, then surely the party of Allah are they that
shall be Victorious. (Al_Quraan_005.056)
If
the Unbelievers should fight you, they would certainly turn
their backs; then would
they find neither protector nor helper. (Al_Quraan_048.022)
Granted
Inheritance (of power) in the Land:
Allah has Promised, to those among you who believe and
work righteous deeds,
that He will, of a Surety,
Grant
them in the land,
inheritance (of power), as He granted it to those before them; that He will
establish in authority
their religion - the one which He has chosen for them; and that He will
change
(their state), after the fear in which they (lived), to one of security
and
peace: 'They will worship Me (alone) and not associate aught with Me.
'If any
do reject Faith after this, they are rebellious and wicked.
(Al_Quraan_024.055)
Allah’s
Help to True Believers only:
Verily
We sent before thee (Muhammad) messengers to their own folk.
Then we took vengeance upon those who were guilty (in regard to them). To Help believers is ever incumbent
upon Us. (Al_Quraan_030.047)
We
will, without
doubt,
Help our messengers and
those who Believe, (both) in this
world's life and on the Day when
the Witnesses will stand
forth, (Al_Quraan_040.051)
Allah
and His Angels darrood-o-salaam over True Believers:
He
it is Who sends Blessings on you (momineen),
as do His angels, that He may bring
you out from the
depths of Darkness into Light: and He is Full of Mercy to the Believers.
(Al_Quraan_033.043)
No
fear and no grief on True Believers:
Verily
those who say, "Our Lord is Allah," and remain
firm (on that Path),- on them shall be No Fear, nor
shall they Grieve.
(Al_Quraan_046.013)
Do
we (Muslims) have any of the above?
An
honest answer is, NO
We do
not have superiority over nations.
We do
not have a way over the non-believers
We are
not victorious over non-believers
We do
not have power in the Land
We do
not have Allah's help in this world
We are
not free from fears and grieves
Why?
Because
we are NOT True Believers
Has
Allah brought another nation in our place?
O
ye who believe! if any from among you turn back from his
Faith, soon will Allah produce a people whom He
will love as they will
love Him,- lowly with the
believers, mighty against the rejecters, fighting in the way of Allah,
and
never afraid of the reproaches of such as find fault. That is the grace
of
Allah, which He will bestow on whom He pleaseth. And Allah encompasseth
all,
and He knoweth all things. (Al_Quraan_005.054)
…
and if you turn back He will bring in
your place another people, then they will not be like you. (Al_Quraan_047.038)
