JUSA’s SG’s Audio Clip – ‘Being Innovative’
Nabi (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said, “Every innovation is misguidance (Dhalaalah).” (Nasaai)
Let us study this statement of JUSA’s SG (secretary general) with our gaze affixed on the words of Rasoolullah (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) – and the teachings of the True Ulama-e-Haqqaani:
“…If it is something that is beneficial, you go and take it. You don’t go and say why must we take it we didn’t do things like this before. And that is something that we as an Ummat for the past 300 years we’ve gone weak, because we have not been able to be innovative…”
Let’s Study This: Note the words ‘innovative’ at the end of the secretary’s statement. The dictionary meanings of the word ‘innovative’ are presented hereunder:
- Tending to innovate, or introduce something new or different; characterized by innovation. (https://www.dictionary.com/browse/innovative)
- To introduce something new; make changes in anything established. (https://www.dictionary.com/browse/innovate)
- To introduce changes and new ideas. (https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/innovate)
In short, the word ‘innovative’ in the statement of JUSA’s secretary general could mean in the following lines, while bearing the dictionary meanings in mind: To introduce something NEW into Deen; To make CHANGES to Deen which is a Divinely Established Religion of HAQ; To introduce NEW IDEAS into Deen.
Is this statement not subtly and slyly purporting modernism, liberalism, westernism and Bid’aat (innovations) into Deen? Is this statement not alluding to the accepting of the accursed Dajjali ‘New World Order’ into Deen, the same Deen which has been innovated – by introducing and altering the 1400 year old Shari’ah – by the Ulama-e-Government in SA and throughout the world in the form of social distancing; masking in Salaah and in the Masjid like fire-worshippers and sanitizing (satanizing) hands? Is this not an attempt to Dajjalize our Deen?
Is this statement not erasing the 1400-year-old Established Sunan (Sunnats) of Deen pertaining to our Masaajid, Salaah, visiting the sick and administering medicine? If one’s Imaani health is sound, one will realize what a dangerous utterance has been made and one’s Imaani conscious will NOT allow one to remain silent on this issue. A healthy Imaani heart will be agitated by such sly and subtle ways of destroying our Shari’ah and of accepting Dajjaliyat in these sentences.
May Allah Ta’ala protect our Imaan, our Deen and keep us always with the Ulama-e-Haq whose company will open up our eyes of the heart to the Haq and to accept the Haq before it is too late. In the same breath, we make Du’a that the scholars are rightly guided who are on Baatil and have become the force and agents of Baatil, who are twisting their tongues by subtly pushing away the Shari’ah to suit the governments and politicians of this temporary world, Aameen.
Now let us analyse the word INNOVATE and BID’AH in the Blessed words of our Rasool (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) and our pious predecessors:
- In this Hadith, ‘being innovative’ is crushed and following the Sunnah is highly encouraged: “Whoever holds on to my Sunnah at the time of corruption of my Ummah, will get the reward of a hundred martyrs.” (many Hadith Kitaabs)
- “Every innovation (Bid’ah) is Dhalaalah (misguidance), and every misguidance is in Jahannam.” (Nasaai)
- “He who innovates in this Amr (Deen, i.e. innovates anything into our System of Deen) which is not in it (i.e. which doesn’t concur with what Islam demands) is rejected.” (Bukhari Shareef)
- “Whoever honours an innovator has certainly assisted in destroying Islam.” (Mu’jamul Awsat, Hilyatul-Awliyaa’)
- “Adopting moderation in practising upon the Sunnah is better than striving and exerting oneself in innovatory practices.” (Hazrat Abdullah bin Mas’ood Radhiyallahu anhu)
- The majority of the Ulama of this age (i.e. the age of Hazrat Mujaddid Alf-e-Thaani which is approximately four centuries ago) are engaged in establishing Bid’ah and eliminating Sunnah. (Mujaddid Alf-e-Thaani Rahmatullahi alaih)
- “How is it possible (that) the Bid’ah be a cure for the indisposed when it (Bid’ah) is the eliminator of Sunnah?” (Mujaddid Alf-e-Thaani Rahmatullahi alaih)
- “The Salf-e-Saaliheen always stressed the imperative importance of being confined to the Qur’aan and Sunnah. They would emphasize abstention from Bid’ah, and acquit themselves with exceptional harshness in this matter. When Ameerul Mu’mineen, Hazrat Umar Bin Khattaab (Radhiyallahu anhu) contemplated doing something, and if someone would say that Rasoolullah (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) did not do this act in this manner nor did he instruct doing it, he (Hazrat Umar) would then refrain from it.” (Hazrat Allaamah Sha’raani Rahmatullahi alaih)
- “O my Brother! Follow the Sunnah of Muhammad (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) in your words and deeds. Do not contemplate doing any act as long as you have not ascertained if it complies with the Sunnah.” (Hazrat Allaamah Sha’raani Rahmatullahi alaih)
- “Elimination of Bid’ah should be in the very inception.” (Hakeemul Ummat, Moulana Ashraf Ali Thanwi Rahamatullahi alaih)
Thus, ‘being innovative’ is not at all an Islamic deed, or virtue, nor is it something encouraged as understood from the above selected quotes out of hundreds of verdicts we have penned. Being innovative in evil ways and Dajjali ways as in the current virus and jabbing era, are far worse than anything else is.
However, perhaps JUSA’s secretary general has seen how lewdly dressed Musallis attend the Masaajid in the sense of some wearing burmudas, skinny tights and tops thereby exposing the shape of their buttocks when in Sajdah, tight-fitting trousers and jeans which have the risk of slitting and splitting, spiked hair resembling roosters’ heads and other weird and funky hairstyles and dyes, pencil-lined beards, etc., etc., etc. Do these also fall under his call of ‘being innovative’? The acceptance of the Salaah of these Musallis is at stake, due to them ‘being innovative’?
