Negligence Towards the Real Responsibility

Present-day Muslims often neglect their responsibility of conveying the divine message brought by the Prophet of Islam and instead, focus their energy on creating an uproar and agitation in response to absurd statements or antagonistic articles. This signifies a significant dereliction of duty on the part of Muslims. In other words, they exhibit restlessness in carrying out the task that God has taken upon Himself, but they lack the urge to actively engage in the work they are required to do through their own efforts, as guided by Shariah. According to the Quran, Muslims are duty-bound to support their Prophet, but this support entails calling people to God and not engaging in a negative campaign against those who criticize him. Muslims need to understand that they cannot earn merit for assisting the final Prophet by launching campaigns against his critics. The credit will be given to them when they effectively communicate the message of the final Prophet to all nations through love, goodwill, and well-wishing, using appropriate etiquette. There is a significant psychological factor behind the current attitude of Muslims. For various reasons, presentday Muslims have developed a mindset of hatred towards other nations, lacking feelings of goodwill towards them. Consequently, they react with anger and violence whenever there is an opportunity to become enraged against other nations. Conversely, they show little interest in demonstrating love, goodwill, and wellwishing towards others.
