What is the solution to the ummah's problems. (OP)
i wanted to start a really active healthy discussion on an important issue, and to do so i would like to ask whoever reads this, 3 questions :
1. Define the problems of the ummah.
2. What are the solutions to the ummah's problems.
3. How do you fit into that solution
It is hypocritical to provide a solution which you do not fit into yourself, i will reply soon inshaAllah im kind of writing this quite lazily (because its day) and maybe at night when i am slightly more philosophical i will come back to reply with my answers.
Nuh uhhh.... unity in the hearts, then physical unity will come. The salaf as-salif did not need inventions and theorems to unite. What we are lacking is iman, and the initiative.
Totally with you on that. Complete agreement.
Notice the subtle difference between "unity so that we can be good people" and "being good people so that we can unify". And by "we" I mean "you" of course. Unification by any means first means oppression and war. You can hope that you all will be better Muslims at the end of it, but it is more likely that you will simply be oppressed. Also it is a "waiting for Godot" situation - if you have to wait for a Leader with Perfect Iman, you will be waiting a long time. It really means doing nothing. You have passed the buck to someone else. But being good Muslims first so that all other Muslims will want to join you without being forced to is different. For one thing it means you have to be good Muslims in order to attract other Muslims. You have to go on being good Muslims all the time or the other Muslims will desert you. Above all else it is something you can do now. You do not have to wait for the Mahdi or some lesser but still impressive figure. You can do it yourself. All you have to be is better Muslims and nicer people.

Bingo! I'm with totally with you too. But nobody expects you to be infalliable. I don't expect to become the Caliph (that's not even halal), but I have to set an example to other Muslims. The best kind of Da'wah is self-example.
get rid of Christian evangelists.sorry to hell with freedom of expression.No hang on ,I have my freedom to kick out the evangelists out of my country right?
Allah knows best, but i think one of the big problems is the muslims themselves, what i mean is, most of us are muslim by name but our actions contradict our faith, we're so far from the true worship of Allah, Allah says in the qur`aan "fa laa ya'manu makraAllahi illal gawmul khaasiruun" and none are safe from the plots of Allah except the destroyed nation"
This aayah is 3aam, includes everyone that commits a sin, and does so without fearing Allah, feels safe and comfortable with commiting his/her sins.
Allah also says in the qur`aan "wa la yansuranna Allaha man yansuruh" verily Allah is sure to help those who help him, how do we do this? It`s simple holding on fast to our deen, and the kitaab and sunnah.
Today sadly we just want to be like those without deen and the prophet sallalahu alayhi wassalam has already told us that we would, he said "and if they entered the hole of a lizard, you would enter it"
We need to go back to the qur`aan and sunnah definately, without it we're lost!
another solutions is having love for eachother as muslims and the prophet sallalahu alayhi wa alaa allihi wassalam said, "shall i not tell you something, if you did it, would make you love eachother, the companions said "of course o messenger of Allah" he said "spread the salaam between yourselves."
Allahumma a3izz al islaam wal muslimeen wa adhill alshirka wal mushrikeen!
I can fit into the solution by giving salaams to my fellow muslims, improving my own akhlaaq (manners/ettiquttes) and holding on fast to the kitaab and sunnah, and none can advise his brother to do something without him doing it himself first , so imagine if each one of us did this subhanaAllah and acted upon our knowledge?, "iiinal 3izzata lillahi jamee3an" verily all victory is for Allah.
