After confirming the Existence of #Allah Almighty, His Oneness, and the greatness of His many blessings which cannot be counted or enumerated, and the first of which is guidance: that He (Glorious & Exalted) graced us with the blessing of true monotheism and Islam, we are required to:
3. Defend Allah (Mighty & Majestic) and champion His religion:
Allah Most High has said, {Oh you who believe! If you help (in the cause of) Allah, He will help you, and make firm your foothold.}[Muhammad 47: 7]
Allah (Blessed & Exalted) bestowed His grace upon us by making us believe in Him and in His Oneness, and in His prophets and messengers. Therefore, it is our duty to defend Him (Mighty & Majestic) by:
A. Judging by His Book (the Holy Quran), abiding by His laws, and following the example of His prophet (pbuh).
B. Following His commands (Noble & Sublime) and avoiding His prohibitions.
C. Keeping His limits (Noble & Sublime) and honoring His covenants.
D. Championing His slaves, the true believers in Islamic monotheism, in every place against their enemies—the enemies of the religion—not taking into account the national alliances of the Days of Ignorance or artificial geographical borders. There is no difference between an Arab Muslim and a non-Arab Muslim. All are equal in Islam.
E. Championing His slaves, the true believers in Islamic monotheism, by advising them and reconciling between them.
Allah Most High has said, {The believers are nothing else than brothers. So make reconciliation between your brothers, and fear Allah, that you may receive mercy.}[Al-Hujuraat 49: 10] in addition to other methods of helping Allah (Mighty & Majestic).
It is also our duty to champion the religion of Allah (Mighty & Majestic) by:
a. Adhering to it, and inviting others to it using all different methods of preaching which are available to us in this day and age.
i. By printing books of preaching, Islamic law, Sirah (the Prophet's, pbuh, biography), and the Prophetic Sunnah, in all different languages: Arabic and foreign, and distributing them to Oriental Studies centers, public libraries, and university libraries all over the world.
ii. Starting websites on the Internet devoted to Islamic preaching, in different languages, and especially in English.
iii. Starting satellite channels, radio broadcasts and magazines that discuss Islam and invite others to it, in all different languages, especially English.
b. We raise the banner of beneficial knowledge as our motto. We strive to be serious in spreading and raising the level of religious knowledge of individuals in the Muslim World and beyond, in various forms, from doctrine to scriptural exegesis, jurisprudence, biography, and Islamic history.
We counteract the Western and communist opposition media, refuting the false accusations they stir up.
We resist fake websites of the enemies of Islam on the Internet that claim to belong to Islam in order to attack it, and we raise awareness about them among the Muslims and others.
c. We follow the methodology of the Pious Predecessors. We follow their path, for it is the path that the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and his noble companions walked. We avoid misguided and misguiding sects and innovating Sufi groups who make things up about the religion that appear over and over again, every day.
d. We know the reliable scholars of the religion—those that are agreed upon and trusted—their esteem and the greatness of their stature, and we defend them and come to their aid.
e. We defend this great religion—Islam—with everything of value: life, wealth, effort, etc.
f. We praise Allah (Blessed & Exalted), day and night, for this great blessing which He has bestowed upon us—that He made us true monotheists, Muslims, true believers, devoted to the best religion, none other than Islam, which the Seal of the Prophets, Muhammad (pbuh) came with. All praise be to Allah for the blessing of Islam, and all praise be to Allah for the blessing of faith.
Oh Allah, send Your blessing and peace upon our faithful messenger, the Seal of the Prophets and Messengers, Muhammad (pbuh). Give him the highest place in Paradise, a rank above the rest, and send him to the station of praise and glory which You have promised him.
Oh Allah, send peace and blessing upon his household, his pure, elect companions, and on those who have been guided by his example, who walk in his footsteps, and who follow his Sunnah until the Day of Judgment.
And all praise belongs to Allah, Lord of the Worlds.
