failure to distinguish the true from the false by using the criteria

and principles in Revelation and Prophetic Wisdom (Al-Qur'an was-

Sunnah);

compounded by their obsession in borrowing un-Islamic standards

from known enemies of Islam;

naiveté lack of hadzar (holding to precautions) in many Muslims;

easy astonishment to things foreign and disliking own traditions;

attraction to forms & systems which they favour more than

principles and truth of Islam (such that they even dare to

compromise these, just to be accepted as being 'progressive &

modern'); All Rights Reserved © Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail (2011)

loss of Adab and inability to know the true from the bogus

amongst leaders and scholars;

inherent ignorance of the general masses amongst Muslims, which

compounded the disunity and in-fighting amongst the various

Muslim groups;

some of which seemingly seen as promoting Islam but in reality

preferring worldly gains and self-promotion in the world-stage (using:

political, economical, social or other jargons as their concern and

consideration rather than continuing the mission of the Prophet in

spreading Islam to all);


love of this world and fear of others rather than being sincere

upon the Deen-ul-Islam, as Allah s.w.t. Clarified and commanded:

“... to be sincere upon this Deen (to the extent)

even though unbelievers do not like it"


These factors, couple with other external factors - of forces

inimical towards Islam with their own strategies to weaken and

undermine Muslims; their lending support and assistance to these

munaafiquun, instigating intra-conflict amongst Muslims - makes

the situation to be even worse.

In this state of affairs of the Muslims, institutions like 'masjid

dhiraara' could easily be started, planted, or even through

infiltration by infusing their personnel into existing Islamic

institutions.


Allah s.w.t. gave us a prototype, a model of what a true mosque

(or any Islamic institution), requiring three important criteria. They

should possess the following:


““Only a house of worship founded, from the very first day, Only a house of worship founded, from the very first day,

Allah s.w.t. uses the word "abada" which stresses the

injunction "never" to become "never ever." Such is a strong

commandment. We must realise that, when foundation of a

mosque, or so-called 'Islamic' institution, is not Taqwa, and it

shows intent to cause mischief and even leading people away

from Islam, obviously towards infidelity. For Muslim to be

associated with it is forbidden.All Rights Reserved © Zhulkeflee Hj Ismail (2011)

“ “Never set foot in such a place!”Never set foot in such a place!”


This "masjid dhiraara" actually aims at using unwary Muslims

to support their agenda, to give credence to what they are

doing, as though it is Islamic or claim to be advancing the cause

of Islam.

So do not be easily deceived by labels and slogans. Beware!
