THE REAL WORK TO BE DONE

THE REAL WORK TO BE DONE sync with human nature will effectively address the minds of the modern generation. The third prevalent flaw in the literature produced on Islam in contemporary times is the mindset that perceives the world as an adversary of Islam, attributing all conspiracies against Islam to these nations. Such books propagate the idea that these nations are determined to suppress Islam. The literature produced under this mindset becomes literature of hatred rather than literature that appeals to the modern mind. A person who harbours hatred towards the intended audience has already demonstrated incompetence for this task. The creation of useful Islamic literature necessitates a psychology rooted in love for the recipient rather than one driven by hate. Therefore, our writers must rid their hearts and minds of such negative sentiments. Otherwise, their efforts to produce Islamic literature aimed at addressing the modern individual will prove futile instead of being a service to Islam. When confronted with incidents such as that of Salman Rushdie, it is not the responsibility of Muslim leaders to declare him an apostate and impose Islamic punishment upon him. On the contrary, their primary duty is to understand the existence of intellectual dissatisfaction. They must delve into the mindset of such individuals, familiarize themselves with their thoughts and ideas, and, after a thorough study, produce books on Islam that can answer their questions and awaken their dormant nature, drawing them closer to their Creator.
