My Eidul Fitr Prayer Khutbah/Sermon, Call to Boycott
Dear Friends:
It is our Islamic duties and human rights to boycott Muslim Nations and their behind the scene enabling allies that are committing Muslim on Muslim sectarian atrocities. Saudi Arabia the founding center of the Islamic world, for example, is misusing its Muslim contributed public resources in amassing Western-made Muslim killing weapons, even some reports are saying Saudi and Israel are collaborating in deadly schemes to undermine Iran, their “mutual foe”. Subhaanallah!
I’m calling on all Muslims, especially those from poor countries, to use their planned Umrah trip expenses in scholarships for the less fortunate students instead of going to Saudi Arabia. It is Haram to enable Muslim Nations to procure deadly sectarian weapons. Umrah-bounds (after fulfilling their Hajj obligations) will gain more rewards building modern schools than patronizing a sectarian killing machine.
One of my neighbors is a very hardworking Bangladeshi man who is planning to make his elevenths Umrah trip this year and I’m working on his well-intended yet misguided head to use the money to start a school in Bangladesh instead. Please pray for my success so that this man will not contribute to another Western made Muslim on Muslim slaughtering weapons.
We love Ibraheem, Ismael, Muhammad (PBUT)’s Saudi Arabia, not Shia Sunni slaughtering Saudi. Ramadan Kareem and Eid Mubarak!
My justifications for this call to boycott are from Allah and his prophet.
Quran:
- “As for those who divide their religion and break up into sects, thou hast no part in them in the least: their affair is with Allah: He will in the end tell them the truth of all that they did”, 6:159.
- “Let there arise out of you a band of people inviting to all that is good, enjoining what is right, and forbidding what is wrong: They are the ones to attain felicity”, 3:104.
Hadith:
- “Whosoever of you sees an evil, let him change it with his hand; and if he is not able to do so, then [let him change it] with his tongue; and if he is not able to do so, then with his heart — and that is the weakest of faith.” [Muslim]
- “After me there will come some people as rulers. Whosoever supports their lying and helps their oppression, he is not of me and I am not of him.”
- “Whoever pleases a ruler by saying what displeases Allah, he gets out of the religion of Allah.”
- “When people see a wrong-doer and do nothing to stop him, they may well be visited by God with a punishment.”
Please join me in standing up for a peaceful coexistence among all God’s creation, if not, then we are as guilty as barbaric belligerents if we enable them or keep quite about their violent crimes. This is the position of peaceful majority. God bless!
You’re invited!
