Mu' meneen Brothers and Sisters,

As Salaam Aleikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh. (May Allah's Peace, Mercy and Blessings be upon all of you)

One of our brothers/sisters has asked this question:

AssalamAlaikum. Respected Burhan Bhai,

I am interested in knowing whether Dr.Farhat Hashmi ( founder of the Al-Huda Islamic Organization for Women ) is a member of your team of scholars ?? actually i have been a member of this organization for sometime and since Dr.Farhat too is a learned female scholar so i thought your team might have contacts with her as well. I am asking this just out of simple curiousity and i won`t mind at all if you want to keep the names of your team members confidential.

Jazak Allah.

Salam,Respected Brother Burhan,

Can you take any of your subscribers as your team member ? If yes ,what are the conditions, qualifications,rules and regulations to be a part of your team ?

Waiting for your response.

Allah Hafiz.

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is no one (no idol, no person,  no grave, no prophet,  no imam,  no dai,  nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad(saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

Your Question: I am interested in knowing whether Dr.Farhat Hashmi ( founder of the Al-Huda Islamic Organization for Women ) is a member of your team of scholars??

Although Dr. Sister Farhat Hashmi (may Allah give her a long life to serve the Cause of Islam) is not directly related to our forum and is not physically a member of our team of scholars;  we have immense respect for her knowledge, and the service she so selflessly provides in the Cause of Allah Subhanah and the propagation of Islam.  May Allah Subhanah accept her efforts in the Cause of His Deen,  and grant her the best in this world, and honor her with the highest grade in Paradise.

Your Question: Can you take any of your subscribers as your team member ?

The Truth of the matter is that whoever truly serves the Cause of Allah Subhanah has one and the same mission: to propagate the Truth of Al-Islam to whoever is willing to listen to good caution from the Quran and Sunnah,  and earn the Pleasure and Good-Will of the Merciful Lord.  All the brothers and sisters who are dedicated to this noble cause are working towards the one same mission: to earn the Pleasure of our Merciful and Forgiving Lord of the Worlds.

And when the Mission of earning the Pleasure of the Merciful Lord is so noble and so great in its essence,  it matters very little to us whether our subscribers are counted as our team members,  or we are counted as their team members;  for all those who truly believe in Allah and His Messenger (saws) are united in the team or membership of the Universal Brotherhood of Islam.   Our one and only mission is to invite anyone,  whether he be a believer or a non-believer, who is willing to listen to good caution from the Quran and Sunnah, to come closer to the obedience and worship of his/her Creator. 

Your Question: If yes ,what are the conditions, qualifications,rules and regulations to be a part of your team ?

One condition, one qualification, one rule, and one regulation would join anyone to be a team member of this team;  and that is ‘the fear of Allah Subhanah’.   Anyone and everyone who truly fears Allah and the Last Day,  and sincerely wishes to serve the cause of the propagation of the Truth from the Quran and Sunnah, is automatically a part of our team,  and we would be honored to be considered as a part of their team.

For if the mission and the goal of each team is one and the same: that is to serve the Cause of Allah Subhanah and earn His Good Will and Pleasure;  then truly they all belong to one and the same team! 

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 23 Surah Al-Mu’minun verse 52:And this ‘Ummah’ of yours is one ‘Ummah’,  and I (Allah) am your Lord, so fear Me Alone!

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 3 Surah Ale Imran verse 110:You (muslims) are the best community which has been raised for the guidance of mankind.  You enjoin what is right,  and forbid what is evil and you all believe in Allah Alone.

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 58 Surah Mujadalah verse 22:They (the believers) are of the Party of Allah.   Truly it is the Party of Allah which will achieve True Success.

Beloved sister in Islam, whatever you do in your capacity and ability to serve and help this noble Cause of Allah Subhanah;  whether it be the distribution of the cassettes of Sister Dr. Farhat Hashmi,  or forwarding our humble question/answer articles to the people you know, etc.,  you will be considered in the sight of Allah Subhanah as a part of the team whose mission is to serve the Cause of Allah Subhanah, and propagate the Mission of Truth from the Quran and Sunnah;  and your reward will Insha Allah, be due from the Merciful Lord of the Worlds!

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 47 Surah Muhammad verse 7: O ye who believe!  If ye will help (the cause of) Allah,  He will help you,  and plant your feet firmly (on the path of Islam).

The best way you can help and serve this noble Cause of Allah Subhanah is to truly apply the commands and teachings of the Quran and Sunnah in your life; and propagate the Truth of Al-Islam to anyone who is willing to listen to good caution from the Quran and Sunnah.  That will automatically enroll you in the teams of all the brothers and sisters whose mission is to propagate the Truth of Islam to all mankind, Insha Allah.

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me.  Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

Your Brother in Islam,

Burhan
