The Infiltration of the Enemies of Islam into the Lands of the Muslims
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: The enemies of Allah strive to infiltrate the lands of Islam by all means. What effort do you see as necessary to stand against this current that threatens Islamic societies?
A: This is not strange for the callers to Christianity or Judaism or any of the other religions of disbelief and schools of destruction; for Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, has informed us of this in His clear revelation: [al-Baqarah:120] and He, Glorified and Exalted is He, said: [Al-Baqarah 2:217] the verse [al-Baqarah:217].
Therefore, they exert everything they can to penetrate the lands of Islam, and they have various methods in this, including: casting doubt and shaking ideas. They are persistent in this without weariness or boredom, driven by the church, hatred, and enmity through direction, pushing, and provision.
The efforts that must be exerted are the awareness and guidance of the children of Muslims, from leaders and scholars, and countering the efforts of the enemies of Islam with opposing efforts. The Ummah of Islam is a community that has carried the trust of this religion and its conveyance. If we strive in Islamic societies to arm the sons and daughters of Muslims with knowledge, understanding, and jurisprudence in the religion, and to accustom them to applying it from a young age, then we will not fear for them anything, by the permission of Allah, as long as they hold fast to the religion of Allah, revere it, follow its laws, and fight against what contradicts it. On the contrary, the enemies will fear them; for Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, says: [Muhammad:7] and He, Mighty and Majestic, says: [Al-Imran:120] and the verses in this meaning are many.
So the most important factor in standing against this current is preparing a generation that knows the truth of Islam. This is achieved through guidance and care in the home and family, educational curricula, media, and community development. Added to this is the role of care and guidance from Islamic leadership, persistence in beneficial work, and constantly reminding people of what benefits them and grows faith in their hearts: [Ar-Ra'd:28].
There is no doubt that heedlessness is one of the reasons the enemies of Islam penetrate the lands of Islam with cultures and sciences that gradually distance Muslims from their religion. Consequently, evil increases among them and they are influenced by the ideas of their enemies. Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, commands the believing group to be patient, to persevere, and to strive in His cause by every means in His saying, Exalted and Majestic is He: [Al-Imran:200] and He, Glorified and Exalted is He, says: [Al-Ankabut:69] I ask Allah by His beautiful names and His exalted attributes to rectify the conditions of the Muslims, to give them understanding in the religion, to unite the word of their leaders on the truth, and to rectify their inner circle. Indeed, He is Generous and Bountiful. And may Allah send prayers and abundant peace upon our master and our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and his companions.
A: This is not strange for the callers to Christianity or Judaism or any of the other religions of disbelief and schools of destruction; for Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, has informed us of this in His clear revelation:
And never will the Jews or the Christians approve of you until you follow their religion. Say, "Indeed, the guidance of Allah is the [only] guidance." If you were to follow their desires after what has come to you of knowledge, you would have against Allah no protector or helper.
وَلَنْ تَرْضَى عَنْكَ الْيَهُودُ وَلا النَّصَارَى حَتَّى تَتَّبِعَ مِلَّتَهُمْ قُلْ إِنَّ هُدَى اللَّهِ هُوَ الْهُدَى وَلَئِنِ اتَّبَعْتَ أَهْوَاءَهُمْ بَعْدَ الَّذِي جَاءَكَ مِنَ الْعِلْمِ مَا لَكَ مِنَ اللَّهِ مِنْ وَلِيٍّ وَلا نَصِيرٍAnd they will continue to fight you until they turn you back from your religion if they are able
وَلا يَزَالُونَ يُقَاتِلُونَكُمْ حَتَّى يَرُدُّوكُمْْ عَنْ دِينِكُمْ إِنِ اسْتَطَاعُواTherefore, they exert everything they can to penetrate the lands of Islam, and they have various methods in this, including: casting doubt and shaking ideas. They are persistent in this without weariness or boredom, driven by the church, hatred, and enmity through direction, pushing, and provision.

وَإِنْْ تَصْبِرُوا وَتَتَّقُوا لا يَضُرُّكُمْ كَيْدُهُمْ شَيْئًا إِنَّ اللَّهَ بِمَا يَعْمَلُونَ مُحِيطٌSo the most important factor in standing against this current is preparing a generation that knows the truth of Islam.

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اصْبِرُوا وَصَابِرُوا وَرَابِطُوا وَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَAnd those who strive for Us - We will surely guide them to Our ways. And indeed, Allah is with the doers of good.
وَالَّذِينَ جَاهَدُوا فِينَا لَنَهْدِيَنَّهُمْ سُبُلَنَا وَإِنَّ اللَّهَ لَمَعَ الْمُحْسِنِينَ
