The importance of understanding these times that we live in
|
|
|
|
Indeed this time that we and you are in is a time from which Allaah’s refuge is to be sought from. For indeed the fitan (trials) within it are not like the fitan of previous times – such as the fitnah of the issue of the Qur’aan being created and issues of ta’weel (misinterpreting the meanings) and tahreef (distorting/changing the meanings) and ta’teel (denying the correct meanings) and other than that from innovations. Rather in your time the fitan have indeed begun departing the people from the fold of Al-Islaam – with complete departure. So it has then left them oscillating between that; neither towards Al-Islaam and neither to other than it – and Allaah’s aid is sought.
The world in which we live in, it is impermissible that you live in it whilst you do not understand it.
