Imam Jamil on Rally for Iraq May Allah(swt) grant him Justice In The Name Of Allah the most Merciful, the most Gracious. The Prophet Muhammad, Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him has said: Never Pray for War, and when it comes be Patient. O People! There is a coming storm from which no one is exempt. The present is now the future. And the future will (must) change what we know as "forever". We come in masses, in countless numbers, like the rain. But they count us as helpless and weak. They offer the old adage: "Shepherds may change but sheep will always remain the same. They make "terrornoia" our master. Evil is as evil does. How often does fear of an evil lead us to one worse. Huey P. Long, who was once governor of Louisiana was asked, will fascism come to America? He said yes, fascism will come to America but it will be called PATRIOTISM. The lack of Faith will crush you far more thoroughly than defeat ever could. The proof of Faith is in struggle, Struggling in Word and Deed, In Body and Spirit. We must bare our chest to the sword, Throw ourselves into the teeth of history. Remember, the wind howls because it can't keep up. Indeed the Spirit is the superior. If we allow them Iraq, then one more for the howling wind. "By the token of time through the ages, Verily Man is the loser, Except those who believe, And do good deeds, righteousness deeds, And who counsel each other to the Truth, And who counsel each other to Patience." (Holy Quran Chapter 103 Verses 1-3) May Allah's blessings be upon those who do good. Amin. JAMIL ABDULLAH AL-AMIN Statement at the Rally Aganist the War on Iraq Washington, DC October 26, 2002 |
