📝 Dr. Eyad Qunaibi: "The Symbols of Islam Shall be Renounced..." The entire world was sinking in darkness in the matters of ʿaqīdah (creedal beliefs) and civilization, at the time when Islam came. Then the world borrowed the light of the civilization which emanated from the light of Islam. Then when the days passed by, and the Muslims turned away from the light of their religion, they ended up with no ʿaqīdah and no civilization. At this time a generation from amongst the Muslims grew up feeling impressed by this “borrowed light” (those things the non-Muslims learned from the early Muslims), and they thought that it was original! And they thought that Islam had no merits and that it did not add anything new for humanity! So they looked down upon the religion of their forefathers (Islam). How accurate is (the speech of) ʿUmar al-Fārūq, may Allah be pleased with him, when he said: “The symbols of Islam shall be renounced one after another when a generation of Muslims grow up upon Islam without knowing what Jāhilīyah (ignorance) is.” Whoever wishes to know what humanity was like before the Prophet ﷺ was sent, they should turn to the second tape of the series “Al-Sirah: The Mecca Period” by Dr. Ragheb al-Sirgani, for it is full of wonders. 🔹 Dr. Eyad Qunaibi 🔹 [Translators' Note: The English speaking audience might instead benefit from “The Life Of Muhammad ﷺ : Mecca Period” by Anwar al-Awlaki ] - كان العالم كله غارقا في الظلام عقيدةً وحضارةً لما جاء الإسلام ثم اقتبس العالم من النور الحضاري المنبثق عن نور الإسلام فلما دارت الأيام وتخلى المسلمون عن نور دينهم، فلا عقيدة ولا حضارة… نشأ فيهم جيل انبهر بالنور المقتبس وظنه أصيلا ! فظن أن لا فضل للإسلام وأنه لم يأت للبشرية بجديد ! فازدرى دين آبائه. وما أحكم الفاروق عمر رضي الله عنه إذ قال: (إنما تنقض عرى الإسلام عروة عروة إذا نشأ في الإسلام من لا يعرف الجاهلية). من أراد أن يعرف حال البشرية قبل بعثة النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم فليراجع الشريط الثاني من سلسلة د. راغب السرجاني (السيرة-المرحلة المكية)، ففيها العجب العجاب! . . . 🌱د.إياد قنيبي @EyadQunaibi1
