Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: What is the methodology that a Muslim must follow in such trials?
Answer:
He should increase his supplication, increasing his supplication and humility to Allah (Mighty and Majestic), asking Him to protect Islam and the Muslims, and to repel the schemes of the enemies and the disbelievers. He should prepare the people, for they have no[At-Tawbah 9:51]. And this is not new from the disbelievers; they always threaten the Muslims, but Allah is with the Muslims.
So the Muslims should have good expectations of Allah, hold fast to Allah, repent to Allah, and rectify their affairs. They should rectify their affairs and take care of their households, those under their authority, and those around them.[At-Tawbah 9:112] Until Allah lifts what is upon them. No calamity descends except by a sin, and it is not lifted except by repentance. They must repent. As for them merely blaming each other, saying "the evil is on so-and-so" and "the evil is on so-and-so," with no rectification of affairs, no supplication, no admonition, and nothing else, this is not permissible. This causes punishment from Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). As for discussing solutions and binding matters, that is for the rulers. It is the rulers who have the authority to look into these matters. May Allah assist them, guide their steps, and grant them success, if Allah wills, in what brings rectification to Islam and the Muslims and repels the schemes of the enemies. We supplicate for them. Supplicate for the rulers, for Allah guides them, Allah protects them, Allah assists them, and Allah grants them success in getting out of these difficulties. Supplicate, supplicate for the Muslims, supplicate for the rulers, and supplicate against the disbelievers. And rectify yourselves as well. Allah is near and responsive, (Glorified and Exalted is He).
