of the earth's population
“so be not deceived by their
[uninhibited] movement throughout the
land” [40:4]

"They are not EXCEPT like sheep. No, but they are
even more astray." [25:44]
The Messenger (sas) has informed us that
the correct Deen is like a stranger to the
people when he said: Indeed Islaam
began as a stranger and shall return as a
stranger just as it began, so Toobaa (a tree

Concept of secularism
The document discusses several key Islamic concepts: 1. The concept of Allah as the sole sovereign authority and source of all knowledge. 2. The concept of din (religion) as complete submission and obedience to Allah's divine guidance. 3. The distinction between revealed knowledge from the Quran and Sunnah, and conceived knowledge from sciences and human reasoning. 4. How a gradual neglect of revealed knowledge and dominance of Western thought has distorted understanding of Islamic concepts in modern times. This has led to confusion and misguidance.

The rise of false leaders in all spheres of life, rise of false 'ulamma' who restrict knowledge (al-'ilm) to the domain of jurisprudence (fiqh), they delight in endless controversy, disputations and polemics which succeed only in making mountains out of jurisprudential molehills in whose blind paths the gene- reality of Muslims are left guideless and bewildered.

Confusion and error in knowledge lead to the rise of leaders who are not qualified for valid leadership of the Muslim community, who do not possess the high moral, intellectual and spiritual standards required for Islamic leadership, who perpetuate the condition further, ensure the continued control of the affairs of the community by leaders like them who dominate in all fields.

- 27. ANIMAL DEVINE HUMAN HUMAN HUMANITY & HUMANRIGHTS LIBERALISM, FAS HION & ENLIGHTMENT Due To Total Neglect Of Divine Part Religion Just Became The Private Matter And Relation With GOD Not DEEN. Separation From Devine Realm Lead To Change In Meaning Of Ibadah To Just Daily Five Congregational Prayers , Up To Most Nawafil, Reciting Names Of ALLAH On Beads and Making Several Ummrah And Hajj. Lack Of True Knowledge Lead To Change In Meaning Of Islam, Ibadah And Deen. ISLAM Means “TO SURRENDER” , IBADAH Means “TO BECOME ABD OF ALLAH WITH LOVE AND WILL” To Become Ghulaam Of ALLAH Rather Than A Servant Who Serves Him Part Time During His Prayers And To The Most In Other Nafali Ibadah. FROM A RATIONAL VIEW POINT If He is in reality our Creator, Master, and Sovereign and so also of this universe, then it is equally meaningless that His jurisdiction should be limited to the private life of an individual and from the very point from which the contact of one person with another commences, His jurisdiction should cease and come to an end Again it passes our understanding completely that if we do not need GOD and His Guidance and direction in our family affairs, in the affairs of our town and city, in our schools and colleges, in our bazaars and markets, in our parliaments and government houses, in our high courts and secretariat offices, in our cantonments and police lines, and in our battlefields and peace conferences, then what other sphere of life is left in which He should be needed at all? Why should such a GOD be accepted and believed in or worshipped, Who is either so useless that He does not give us any guidance in the affairs of our life or (we seek the refuge of GOD in saying so) that He is so foolish that none of his directions to regulate our affairs appear to us to be reasonable or practicable? In Nut Shell Decrease In Imaan (Faith) Lead To Above Versus Above Lead To Decrease In Imaan (Faith) Is Debatable But DECREASE IN IMAAN IS THE CRUX OF MATTER
- 28. ANIMAL DEVINE HUMAN HUMAN Due To ChangeIn Individual Level, Lead To Separation Of Devine Realm From The Social Level As Well, I.E. Between Individuals, Between Society And Individuals, Between State And Society Leading To Secular Government.
