Understanding Worship in Islam
The lesions of Islamic society
The prophet (May the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) determined the lesions of Islamic society at this age and any age as they are three:
1 – Excessiveness.
2 – The stray creeds.
3 – The ignorant interpretations.
This is from what he said (May the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) as narrated by our sir Abu-Horayra:
"This knowledge will be carried out at every generation by its fair people; they banish the distortion of extremists, the interpretation of ignorant people and the embracement (adoption) of liars."
Extremists are those who go to the extreme in something and exceed moderation, like some of those who concern outward features of the religion without consideration to the spirit and the essence and discord one another. Also among the Sufis' lovers, there are some who go to the extreme at expressing their love to their Sheikhs and narrate stories and myths in this respect and say that they are karamat (miracles), but they aren't, they are legends, imaginations and hallucination. Miracles should match those miracles mentioned in the book of Allah about the Virgin Mary, the people of Kahf (the cave) and others. Those are whom the prophet described as the distortion of extremists.
"The embracement (adoption) of liars" They are those who believe what is not in the religion for political aims as satisfying leaders, doctrinal aims, worldly aims or psychological aims. Those are opposed by men who are fighting in the Way of Allah, and never afraid of the blame of the blamers, the prophet says about them:
"This knowledge will be carried out at every generation by its fair people."
The fair people are those about whom Allah said:
"Thus We have made you, a Wasat (just and the best) nation, that you be witnesses over mankind and the Messenger (Muhammad) be a witness over you." (Surat Al-Bakara, verse 143)
The prophet indicated that the witnesses here are the fair people; the fair people are those who judge by the right even if it is bitter and give the legal opinions beginning with themselves and their relatives. They never order others by the harder and order themselves by the easier and find interpretations for themselves, but they follow Omar Ibn Al-Khattab and Abu Bakr Al-Sed'deek and the other good companions of the prophet (May the blessings and peace of Allah be upon him).
"This knowledge will be carried out at every generation by its fair people."
The prophet didn't say: its scholars, but he said: its fair people, because the fair people are scholars who apply what they say, there is fear in their hearts from Allah, Allah says about them:
"Those who convey the Message of Allah and fear Him, and fear none save Allah." (Surat Al-Ahzab, verse 39)
"This knowledge will be carried out at every generation by its fair people; they banish the distortion of extremists, the interpretation of ignorant people…"
The ignorant are those who occupied people at this time by the nominal, and side matters and made them the basic elements of the religion, they only speak about matters people differ about, as if they are the whole religion, like the two prostrations before Jomaa, the two Athans of Jomaa, Al-Tasyeed (saying Ashhadu Anna Sayedona Mohammed Rasool Allah) in Athaan and so on. These are all nominal and side matters, a believer shouldn't be totally occupied by them.
"The interpretation of ignorant people and the embracement (adoption) of liars."
They are people who believe things in the religion of Allah which are not from it, like the creeds appeared at this time, like Al-Baha'Eya and Al-Ba'Beya , these are creeds attach themselves to Islam, but we should refute and refuse them and correct the facts for people and explain to them the reality of Islam.
