Your post is a typical example of misinterpretation of ahadith and the Quran Verses.
Can you imagine one of the Sahaba sitting comfortably in a land of kuffar listening to them decide to attack Muslims and not do anything about it? Can you imagine them just going around talking to people expressing words of anger and telling people to pray for those Muslims and then going back to their homes to sit? Can you? Never!
Yes absolutely. The conflict in Middle East is not of a Muslim VS Non Muslim, it is of a global nature, Muslims and Non Muslims fighting each other over regional and political ambitions. Unfortunately the ground is Middle East and its a majority Muslim region. When the first Fitnah struck the Ummah after the murder of Uthman Ibn Affan (R.A), many companions stayed away from the conflict that was taking place among the Muslims. They stayed aloof completely and led a life of seclusion. They didn't want themselves to be killed nor did they want any innocent blood on their hands. Thousands of Muslims died when fighting each other..... so you miss the point, that the Sister opened this thread for i.e. Muslims Killing Each other and acting crazy.... in such times you stay home, whether we're in the West or East, you don't join Fitnah....
Quran and Sunnah is what the Prophet SAW left behind, so aren’t we governed by it? The first thing the Nabi SAW done after his hijrah is the establishment of the khilafah in Madina? Isn’t? It was vital infact. So how many would say that the Quraish wasn’t impressed with that? To clarify, the Quraish being the enemies of Islam. You think they sat ideally saying ''oh Muhammad, is starting an Islamic state, how nice for him and his believers, lets leave him in Madina to do what he wants, and we can stay here in Makkah and live our lives. No on the contrary they were irate by that.
The Prophet (SallAllahu Alaihi Wassallam) never established or enforced Islamic State on people of Madinah, the majority of whom weren't even Muslim. Rather he created the democratic constitution of Madinah State. He was in fact the 1st person in the history of mankind to teach the world how to establish a state with Human Rights for all communities which the West learned and today calls a democracy. The following should be understood very well by Muslims and Non Muslims:
The Constitution of Madinah ﺻﺤﻴﻔﺔ , ﺍﳌﺪﻳﻨﻪ Sahīfat al-Madīna, also known as the Charter of Madinah, a political-constitutional document, was drafted by the Holy Prophet Muhammad . The most widely read version of the Constitution is found in the pages of Ibn Ishaq's 24 ﺍﺑﻦ ﺇﺳﺤﺎﻕ Sīrah Rasūl Allāh ﺳﲑﺓ ﺭﺳﻮﻝ ﺍﷲ (Life of the Messenger of God. It is the first written constitution in the world for the multi-religious ten thousand-strong citizens of the city-state of Madinah. The claim that it was the first written constitution in the world is not a biased exaggeration. Aristotle's 25 (384 BC – 322 BC) Constitution of Athens, written on papyrus, discovered by an American missionary in Egypt in 1890 CE and published in 1891 CE, was not a constitution, but an account of the constitution of the city-state of Athens. The Madinah Charter is the first, and in this it preceded the American Constitution of 1787 CE, by more than a thousand years! It also preceded the English feudal bill of rights, the Magna Carter of 1215, by almost six centuries! It constituted a formal agreement between Muhammad and all of the significant tribes and families of Madinah, including Muslims, Jews, and pagans. The document was drawn up with the explicit concern of bringing to an end the bitter inter tribal fighting. To this effect it instituted a number of rights and responsibilities for the Muslim, Jewish, and pagan communities of Madinah bringing them within the fold of one community—the Ummah.
(Madinah to Karbala - Chapter Constitution of Madinah - Sheikh Irshad Soofi)
...I have all 62 Articles of that Charter which I'm sure if you don't find online (thru Sheikh Google) then I can certainly list them here. They are clear evidence of how a democratic government was formed back then. Obviously later the pagans accepted Islam and Jews violated the constitution which led to their expulsion and naturally the majority being all Muslim, enforced the Islamic Law Shariah.
The Prophethood will remain amongst you for as long as Allah wills it to be. Then Allah will raise it when He wills to raise it. Then there will be the khilafah upon the Prophetic methodology. And it will last for as long as Allah wills it to last. Then Allah will raise it when He wills to raise it. Then there will be biting kingship, and it will remain for as long as Allah wills it to remain. Then Allah will raise it when He wills to raise it. Then there will be tyrannical (forceful) kingship and it will remain for as long as Allah wills it to remain. Then He will raise it when He wills to raise it. Then there will be a khilafah upon the Prophetic methodology.
Reported in the Musnad Imaam Ahmad, by at-Tirmidhi, Musnad Abi Ya’laa, and Ibn Hibbaan. Saheeh al-Jaami’ as-Sagheer (no. 3341) declared Saheeh by Imam al-Albaani (rahimahullaah).
So we went through every phase of the hadith…yes/no? We have the tyrannical kings among us, or are you going to deny the hadith?
When you quote complete hadith, then we can easily understand whether this Foolish Man called Baghdadi and his so called Euphoric Islamic state is even an actual one?...
“The period of Prophethood will remain among you so long as Allah wills, then He shall cause it to end. After that, there will be Khilafah among you on the pattern of Prophethood, and this will last as long as Allah wills, and then He shall cause it to end. After that, there will be a reign of oppressive monarchy/tyrants, and this will also last as long as Allah wills, and then He shall cause it to end.
After that there will be a period of enslavement, and this will last as long as Allah wills, then He shall cause it to end. Finally, there will again be Khilafah on the pattern of Prophethood.” (Musnad Ahmad on the authority of Nauman Ibn Bashir)
...you missed the underlined part of enslavement. The Tyrant Kings were the Kings of Mughal Empire, Seljuk Empire, Safwi Dynasty, Ottoman Caliphs. Abu Bakr Baghdadi's so called Caliphate is in times of when entire Ummah is in enslavement. The refugees fleeing from his Caliphate are fleeing for their lives and it is an Islamic Caliphate?? Are poor supposed to be protected and helped by the Caliphate or flee from it?
The Caliphate of Imam Mahdi has not been restored. It would be ignorant to consider this lunatic's 'Caliphate' to be a part of Imam Mahdi's rule.
You pay jizyah to your governments to Fight the war on terrorism, you actually contribute to the killing of Syrians, Iraqis, Libyans etc etc then you start a thread and say ‘’no to the war on Syria’’? Im left baffled…Do you think your tax money is for the building of roads, schools bridges etc in your countries? Either you naïve or you clearly upon kufr. You justify why you pay these taxes, yet you will slander the Islamic state for implementing jizyah, or completely say that they are not an Islamic state…either way, you justify your governments attack on them…So again you don’t fear Allah?
When you live in a country, you pay taxes, you don't dodge and cheat and corrupt. A Muslim never dodges and cheats. A Muslim is a man of principles.... he or she pays the government you live under, especially if they're providing you food, safety, security, education, health, etc etc. A Muslim is honest in all his or her dealings. Regardless of what that government does to that money is their problem. If we cheat them of their taxes and call it Islam then we're treacherous.
What you fail to realize as muslims is, they are slowly making you disbelievers, you stand for kufr and deny Islam
Allah reminds us in the Quran that the disbelievers will never be satisfied with you until you follow their way. Infact it’s a stern warning…
And never will the Jews or the Christians approve of you until you follow their religion. Say, "Indeed, the guidance of Allah is the [only] guidance." If you were to follow their desires after what has come to you of knowledge, you would have against Allah no protector or helper. #Quran 2:120
Alhamdulillah....All Praise is due to Allah (swt). That is absolutely correct. It is a warning for Muslims so that they remain steadfast on Islam and not fall for some other way of life. This life is full of tests. Just like every other test such as wealth, children, fighting each other, Jews and Christians will also test us and we need to hold on to our faith. Allah (swt) does not forbid us to make friends with them...He (swt) is just warning us to be aware and not copy them....
(60:08)Allah does not forbid you from those who do not fight you because of religion and do not expel you from your homes - from being righteous toward them and acting justly toward them. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly.
(60:09) Allah only forbids you from those who fight you because of religion and expel you from your homes and aid in your expulsion - [forbids] that you make allies of them. And whoever makes allies of them, then it is those who are the wrongdoers.
