There is no God but Allah
The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community (AMC), a rapid growing Islamic movement, condemns the offensive movie 'Innocence of Muslims' by Sam Bacile on YouTube that was publicized last year.
The Khalifa or the Spiritual Leader of the community says to respond with the pen, with your words, not with swords and violence.
Here is the video of the AMC response to the movie. [youtube]ilEtsaJu9WA[/youtube]
Ahmadiyya Muslim Response to Anti-Islam Film (Ahmadiyya Islam) - YouTube
Message to ALL Muslims, Ahmadi or not: There are two sides of fault in this situation of the world of Islam. The first are the evil people behind the movie. But that is insignificant, because people insult the Holy Prophet (saw) every day, but Rasool Allah (saw) is FAR above those insults, they do not affect him.
The second fault, and the biggest one, is the reaction of the Muslims in the Middle East.
This is NOT the right way to approach this. Congratulations, you have just given the entire Muslim world a bad name. Why must you resort to violence and killings? Stop listening to the Mullahs and understand the teachings of the Holy Prophet (saw)!
The Prophet (saw) said to NEVER get angry if someone insults anything relating to Islam or a religion. Rather, feel SORRY for the people who insult you or your faith and your beliefs, because they have not received the gift of mercy and forgiveness of God.
The Prophet (saw) cried for the people who insulted him EVERY day, he TRULY felt sorry for them. You know HOW sorry he felt? I'll give you a story.
-One day, Muhammad (saw) was walking in the city of Mecca, and on came a few Meccans who were against Islam. Since the Muslims were the minority living in Mecca, the majority of the population of the Meccans were against the Muslims.
A few Meccans approached the Prophet (saw) and started throwing rocks at him. Some of the rocks missed, but a few got him in the stomach, and Muhammad (saw) got a cut and started bleeding very badly.
You know what he did? He felt sorry for them, and how did he show it? As he was scratched, the blood was coming out and dripping. The Holy Prophet (saw) KNEW that ONCE those few drops of blood touch the ground of the Earth, then God will punish those men who threw rocks at him. So Muhammad (saw) tried to save every little drop of blood that was falling to the ground, because he did not want God to punish those men who hurt him.
See how merciful Muhammad (saw) was?
Why cannot we Muslims follow in HIS footsteps and NOT retaliate?
If you made it this far, just remember. If someone insults the Holy Prophet (saw), then do not, and I repeat, do NOT go start transgressing. Who were the worst people who insulted Muhammad (saw)?
The people who lived in his life time of course. They had the opportunity to insult him at his FACE and on top of that, hurt him PHYSICALLY and EMOTIONALLY. But still, he NEVER got angry, he got SAD...VERY sad. And he prayed to God every night in his home, crying and weeping, because he felt so SORRY for those people who were not guided in the light.
Muhammad (saw) told Abdullah ibn Mas'ood (ra) to recite Sura An-Nisaa from the Qur'an for him. (Chapter 4)
As Abdullah (as) was reading, he got to verse 42 of Chapter 4 and read it out loud.
فَكَيۡفَ إِذَا جِئۡنَا مِن كُلِّ أُمَّةِۭ بِشَهِيدٍ۬ وَجِئۡنَا بِكَ عَلَىٰ هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ شَہِيدً۬ا
"How (will it be) then, when We bring from each nation a witness and We bring you (O Muhammad SAW) as a witness against these people?"
Then Abdullah (ra) heard the Holy Prophet (saw) say, "Enough, Enough." And he looked up upon at the Prophet's (saw) face. Muhammad's (saw) eyes were filled with heavy tears, he was crying.
---
Now why do you think the Prophet (saw) started crying after Abdullah (ra) recited that verse? The verse is talking about the disbelievers, and God will question every disbeliever, and God will ask that disbeliever why didn't they believe, and the disbeliever will say that (insert Prophet here) did not guide them.
This is why the Prophet (saw) cried. He felt sorry for the people, extremely. He NEVER got angry, his character was not like that.
THIS is why Muhammad (saw) needs to be our direct role models. Only through following his actions, will we ALL retain to righteousness.
I hope now that you've finished reading this post, ponder over the point of getting angry. There is no reason to get angry, only God has the right to be angry. Why should you be angry for something that GOD created? Only God has the full right to be upset with the people who mock and ridicule, you have no rights. Forgive, this is the best you can do. And forget, make peace with everyone.
This is true Islam, this is true Submission.
Assalamualaykum.
