Does Islam need to be Reformed??

Recommended Posts

Yonis   

Most of the time, we hear that Islam is the religion of backwardness and it needs to be moderated in order to find its way and be compatible in the 21st century. Muslims all over the world have failed in anyway to prove and show that Islam can be adopted in any century whether we live 7th century or this moderate world. As we all know it is easy to hear from people (disbelievers and even some so called Muslims) who claim that Islam needs to be renovated. This is not something new or something that makes us surprise because there are some reasons behind their claim and rumors-

1) Muslims are the least developed countries in the world,

2) The lack of modern technologies and freedom of speech are the key points of their idle speculation against Islam and its society. So, who is the responsible of these problems we have at the moment? What is the difference between a moderate Muslim and a normal Muslim? And should Muslims need to moderate themselves or Islam itself needs to be reformed?

Bismillahi.. salams.. first of all we are responsible for the problems that we are facing nowadays as muslims... no one else is but us.. we have to accept this fact... 'cause our relationship with Allah is just dead or too weak.. we disobey him left and right so let's look into ourselves first and i think the one who does not see this his heart is blind or they are in denial..

 

secondly there is no such thing as a moderate muslim in islam... if anybody calls himself a moderate muslim we have to ask him what do they mean by that... if they deny or ask to change parts of this diin then this could lead to "kufr" Allah knows best.. we have to ask the scholars...

 

Thirldly.. like i said there is no moderation in this diin... the islam that Allah SWA send down 1400 years ago is the same islam today without exceptions... Allah SWA says in the qur'an "Do they seek other than the religion of Allah while to him submitted all creatures in the heavens and the earth, willingly or unwillingly. And to him shall they all be returned".

 

In another verse Allah SWA says:"And whoever seeks a religion other than islam, it will never be accepted of him, and in the hereafter he will be one of the losers"..

 

so neither islam nor it's people need a reform.. the only reform that needs to be taken place is within ourselves...

 

just a question: can something be the cause for advancement and happyness to a people and at the same time be the cause of destruction and corruption and sorrowness to others?

 

to understan this... look the at the time of the companions and what kind of life they led,, they ruled half of this world... and look at us today... the islam then is the same islam today... i hope we all see the point.. "Islam" is not the problem but us...

 

wasalam...
