The Shaykh's Comment on Hassan al-Banna's Statement
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : For example, take the Islamic Liberation Party, which wants to establish the Muslim state. Look at what Hassan al-Banna says; it is a word as if it were revelation from the sky, yet his group does not apply this word at all. He says to his group: "Establish the state of Islam in your hearts, and it will be established for you on your land." The Islamic Liberation Party does not pay any attention whatsoever to this wisdom. They tell you: We want to establish the state, and then the state will reform the people. Glory be to Allah! This is the opposite of logic and the opposite of the Sunnah. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) lived for many years nurturing the few individuals, until he created the core and foundation of the Muslim community. This research also falls under the topic of: [Al-Ahzab 33:21] And so you find that the individuals of the Islamic Liberation Party, as a group, or rather every group has good and sincere people, and so on; but as a group, they are far removed from applying the Islam that is known to be Islam. I am lenient and tolerant regarding the application of the Islam that is known to be Islam; but as for the application of the purified Islam, where are they and where is it?
There has certainly been for you in the Messenger of Allah an excellent pattern
لقد كان لكم في رسول الله أسوة حسنة
