 News Right Now: Obscene Remarks

Welcome to News Right Now: Obscene Remarks

Muslims have come to accept nothing less than vile behavior and outright oppression of Muslims in India. The way Modi government has escalated its Islamophobic agenda, and constantly fanned the flames of hatred and intolerance through its speeches, new laws and policies - and from the communal violence, lynching, and vitriolic propaganda it turns a blind eye. It’s clear that there are no limits to offending and hurting Muslims. It came as no surprise when last week two senior officials from India’s ruling BJP party caused the greatest offence through their disgusting and belittling comments about our beloved prophet Muhammed (saw) and Islam.

Although the governments of Saudia Arabia, the Gulf states, Iran and Pakistan spoke out against the slander of our Prophet (saw), these words already forgotten, are by no means an adequate response and served only to hijack the issue from the real responsibility these global players have in dealing with the matter precisely and according to Islam.

Their collective failure to take stern action against the Indian government is what should be the most poignant issue for us all. Most Muslim governments did not even speak up against the offensive speech. The governments of Turkey, Bangladesh and Indonesia, which together represent the vast majority of the world's Muslims were silent in word and deed – choosing to prioritize the stability of their own relationships with this uncivilized Modi government.

Although the discrimination against Muslims in India over the last 50 years has steadily developed into outright oppression, this Modi government has escalated the harm like none other.

The numbers of violent attacks, lynching and beheadings upon individuals and families accused of eating beef has grown exponentially, and several riots were instigated by right wing Hindu nationalists in which thousands of Muslims were beaten and killed and homes and businesses were torched. This Modi government is also responsible for removing the legal right of Muslims to divorce according to Sharia - and it most recently copied the stale old western narrative of the Islamic dress code being a form of extremism. Therefore disallowing Muslim girls in hijab and niqab from attending school and sitting exams, unless the Islamic clothing is removed; and never to forget or reduce the importance of the 55 yearlong bloodbath that is India’s grip over Azad Kashmir, in which tens of thousands of civilians have been killed, gone missing and been subject to rape as a weapon of war. These innocents have had their homes repeatedly destroyed and land reduced to rubble through bombing, as well as an epidemic of blindness created through the Indian army’s rampant use of pellet guns on protestors.

A proper response to this vile government, its ruling party and those it controls and instigates against Muslims, is twofold. Firstly, the Muslim rulers must fulfil their purpose, which is to defend the believers and uphold Islam by, at the very least immediately by cutting diplomatic ties with Modi’s government, and by putting a halt to trade and all fin-tech agreements with India. Also Indian diplomatic staff should be expelled and embassies shut down. BJP supporters residing in the Muslim countries should be made to leave, and boycotting Indian goods on a national scale not only an individual one should be prioritised. Likewise cutting energy supplies to India would force Modi’s racist regime to alter its course.

Secondly, the rulers of the Muslims are obliged to threaten such an oppressive regime with military consequences in order to meet the standards of true leadership which are clearly manifested in the life of our prophet Muhammed saws, the Khulafaa Rashida and the rulers who followed them. The shariah includes rules for facing tyrants, the enemies of Islam and enemies of the Muslim Ummah - and by making an Ijtihad and Qiyas on this situation can means a lasting solution can definitely be reached InshaAllah.

(يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ اسْتَجِيبُواْ لِلّهِ وَلِلرَّسُولِ إِذَا دَعَاكُم لِمَايُحْيِيكُمْ وَاعْلَمُواْ أَنَّ اللّهَ يَحُولُ بَيْنَ الْمَرْءِ وَقَلْبِهِ وَأَنَّهُ إِلَيْهِ تُحْشَرُونَ)

“O you who have Iman! Answer Allah (by obeying Him) and (His) Messenger when he (Messenger) calls you to that which will give you life, and know that Allah comes in between a person and his heart (i.e. He prevents an evil person from deciding anything). And verily to Him you shall (all) be gathered.” [Al Anfal: 24]
