LETTERS FROM MADINAH: LETTER ONE [Letter
1] In the Name of ALLAAH, the Most Merciful, the Most Kind O Muslims here is the Promise of Allah if you believe. Allah says in the Quraan, "O you who believe shall I guide you to a trade that will save you from a painful torment? Believe in Allah and the Messenger and do Jihaad and fight in the Cause of Allah, with your wealth and your lives. That is better for you if you only knew. If you do so, Allah will forgive you your sins and admit you into gardens under which rivers flow. And pleasant dwellings in Gardens of Eternity and that indeed is a great success." [Quran 62: 10-12] A message to the Russians, the West who are supporting them, and all disbelievers generally, Allah says in the Quraan, "Certainly, those who disbelieve spend their wealth to hinder people from the Path of Allah and so will they continue to spend it. But in the end it will become the cause of anguish for them. Then they will be overcome. And all those who disbelieve will be gathered unto Hell." [Quran 8: 8] Here is a true story for those who need some more reassurance to believe in the promises of Allah, read ahead, even a disbeliever must agree to this. As for those who disbelieve, they continue to lie about the truth and Allah says in the Quran, "Certainly, this is the truth from your Lord, but most of humanity does not believe." [Quran 11:17] Here is just one example amongst many of how Allah's promise comes true for the faithful. When our Beloved Prophet, blessings of Allah be upon him and peace, arrived in Madinah, banished by the majority of his pagan tribe, physically under-nourished, homeless, prosecuted as a result of his innocent message, politically weak, he was rudely confronted by the Jews who had temporary residence there in Madinah. They the Jews were conniving, extremely rich and shrewd. They had a lot of power and influence in Madinah and the rest of Arabia as well. When the innocent Prophet, blessings of Allah be upon him and peace, reached Madinah, the Jews quickly took him to be a threat when they saw the importance he was given by his followers, may Allah be pleased with them. Instead of embracing Islaam, as a few from them did, the Jews began to plot to kill him and constantly harassed the Noble Prophet, blessings of Allah be upon him and peace. It was during this time that Allah, the Lord of the Muslims and the Jews, revealed a verse amongst others and discussed the issue with the innocent Prophet, blessings of Allah be upon him and peace, comforting him. Allah said, "...So Allah will be enough for you against them..." [Quran 2:137]. In other words Allah told the innocent Messenger of Allah, blessings and peace be upon him, not to worry about the conniving Jews and their plots, Allah is the protector of the righteous and Allah will suffice the faithful... My dear brothers, this part of the verse is just one miracle of many miracles of Allah given to the Messenger, blessings of Allah be upon him and peace. I swear by Allah, Allah was enough for His Prophet, blessings of Allah be upon him and peace! After the revelation of that verse amongst others, the Jews who did not embrace Islaam not only lost their influence in Madinah and Arabia, not only left Madinah, but instead left the whole Arabian peninsula, completely. More than fourteen hundred years have since passed, our Beloved Messenger of Allah has passed away, however, Allah continues to suffice for him and those who truly believe. Not a single Jew that we know of has stepped into Madinah, nor can a single Jew step into it, by the will of Allah alone. Now I ask you dear brothers and sisters in Islaam, was Allah enough for His Prophet, blessings and peace be upon him, or not? Even today, with all the power and influence they hold in this world today, Banks, Media, Justice systems, Politicians, Scientists, etc., they have managed to snatch a small piece of land in the far corners of Arabia, after fourteen hundred years. With the whole world backing them they still cannot sleep a night in peace and with the will of Allah, they will not till their knees finally begin to visibly tremble and they leave in panic, in masses and in a stampede, with the will of Allah alone. Again I ask the world, was Allah enough for His Prophet, blessings of Allah be upon him and peace, or not? The message is that there are many promises Allah has made to the believers and the disbelievers, read the Quraan, learn them and act appropriately now before the inevitable death creeps up to you from where you least expect it. MA, Madinah, the City of the Prophet, Blessings of Allah be upon him and Peace, the Arabian Peninsula
