Default The Fitnah Of The Dunyaa And The Fitnah Of Women - 05-28-2008

The Fitnah Of The Dunyaa And The Fitnah Of Women

Sourece: http://www.salafitalk.net

''Verily the worldly life is sweet and green, and verily Allaah is going to place you as successors upon it in order to see how you act. So be mindful of the dunyaah and be mindful of women; verily the first trial for the Children of Israa'eel was caused by women.''[(saheeh Muslim: No 2742) (Ibn Maajah: No 4000) (Ahmad: 3:22)]

Imaam Muhammad Ibn Saaleh Al-Uthaimeen (rahimahullaah) commented on this hadith saying:

Regarding his (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) statement:

''Verily The Worldly Life Is Sweet And Green''; sweet in taste and green in image. And when something is green and sweet, the eye seeks it first and then the Nafs. And when the eye and the nafs come together in seeking after something, the human being is drawn close to falling to it. The worldly life is sweet in its taste and green in image, so the human being is deceived and pre-occupied by it, and he places a greater importance upon it than what is due to it (of importance).

However, the Prophet (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) has made it known that Allaah is going to place us as successors upon it in order to see how we act; whether we will be obedient to Him and forbid the nafs from desires, and whether you will fulfil what Allaah has enjoined upon you and not allow the worldly life to deceive you or whether the opposite will take place? That is why he (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) said:

''Be Mindful Of The Worldly Life'', that is: fulfil what you have been commanded with and refrain from that which you have been forbidden, and do not let the sweetness and radiance of this worldly life to deceive you, as Allaah said:

''Let not then this (worldly) present life deceive you, nor let the chief deceiver (Satan) deceive you about Allaah''. 31:33

Then he (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) stated:

''So Be Mindful Of The Worldly Life And Be Mindful Of Women''

That is: be mindful of them. This includes a warning to the woman regarding her plot(s) against her husband and also a warning against women and the trial that can be caused through them; and for that reason he (sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam) said:

''Verily The First Trial For The Children Of Israa'eel Was Caused By Women''. They were put to trail through women; thus they went astray and led others astray wal-iyaadhu-billaah.

And for this reason, we find that presently our enemies (the enemies of our religion, the enemies of Allaah's Sharee-ah) are focused on women issues. (They focus) on adorning women, intermingling them and making them share the same occupations with men, until it becomes as if the people are donkeys having no other concern except for their stomachs and canal desires, wal-iyaadho-billaah. Women are portrayed as if they are mere images, that is: pictures (which) people attached no importance to except that which is connected to the woman's figure (outward appearance).

See how they have decorated and beautified her! See how they have brought about beautifications for her and presented her in a desirable condition, in relation to (her) hair, skin, display of her legs, arms, face and everything else; until they make it the most important issue for the woman to be like a picture made out of plastic.

They neither present to her the importance of establishing ibaadah nor bearing children

asalamalikum
Good post!
I do not understand why would any western men or women think muslim men enjoy putting women behind veil. Muslim men only enforce that law not oppress a women rather to protect her. Another islamic law the non muslims dislike is women should walk with a Maah'rum. Even the west encourages women to walk in groups do not walk alone in dark or in parks. Most of the stalkers come after they have seen a beautiful women walking down the street. Stalkers dont just randomly pick and choose. Among men there are scums who do not respect women rights. Therefore Islam gives women rights so the scum from men cannot harm the women. The rest of the cultural laws mixed with Islam have nothing to do with the religion. Islam does not allow oppression. I heard some where that Allah Swt has forbidden oppression on mankind and Allah himself. < Not sure where but I did hear it from a scholar.
