The Shaykh : ... and especially since Muslims have many enemies, and every one of these enemies tries to distance Muslims from their religion by all means. Without a doubt, the disbelievers in the present age, in which material power has completely submitted to them, have realized that Muslims are not diverted from their religion by force and weapons, but rather by distorting their religion. Distorting their religion is done through two things: the first is distancing them from the medicine that Islam brought, and the second is testing them with material desires in their various forms and types. If the Muslim is not protected by his Islam and the correct Islam, as we mentioned, the disbelievers can easily lead the Muslims to follow their desires and appetites, because the soul, as Allah the Exalted said, [Yusuf 12:53] Therefore, let the Muslim be in a strong fortress against ideological and material deviation at the same time. He must study Islamic jurisprudence and know its rulings from the Book of Allah and the Hadith of the Messenger of Allah, for that is the jurisprudence for which the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed for his companion by saying: Sahih Muslim 1037a So, studying Islamic jurisprudence is based on the Book and the Sunnah. Very strange things have entered into both, which have nullified this medicine that was a cure for the most deviant of peoples, namely the Arabs in the pre-Islamic age of ignorance. With this medicine, they became noble and were able to dominate the lands that had previously ruled them, even though they were stronger than them in number and greater in number. And as it is said, history repeats itself. Just as Islam was a cure for those Arabs who were oppressed on earth by the Persians and the Romans, and they became the masters of all because of this medicine, which is Islam, if history repeats itself and the Muslims return to this medicine, it will restore to them what they lost of nobility, glory, strength, and power.
