Following are some DOs and DON'Ts
to help in building the unity of Muslim Ummah.
DOs;
* Whenever we discuss a disputed matter we must be civilized,
open minded and kind to other Muslims.
* Whenever we discuss a disputed matter we should acquire
in-depth knowledge of both side's point of view.
* We should be positive and respectful towards other Muslims
regardless of difference in opinions.
* We must be preaching and spreading Islam not our own
sectarian beliefs.
* If a dispute arises on the interpretation of a verse in
Qur'an OR Hadith OR about a certain action we must follow the
consensus of the scholars of Islam. If we find that the
scholars are split on the issue then one can follow who ever he
/ she likes to follow but must not consider the others as
wrong.
* Friday's Sermons of our Imams should be on the common issues
and teachings. The Imams must try to bring Muslims together.
They must stay away from the disputed topics.
* Muslims must love, respect and follow Muhammad (peace be upon
him) as the companions of the Prophet (peace be upon him) did.
* Muslims must adopt all those ways which increase the love of
Allah, His Prophet (peace be upon him) and His book, Qur'an.
* Muslims must be very careful in listening, reading and
following of those scholars of Islam who were responsible for
the destruction of KHILATFAT-E-ISLAMI during 1800 and later.
* Muslims must focus on the major issues of Muslim Ummah such
as Palestine, Al Quds, Chechnya, Kashmir, Indonesia,
Philippines, Burma, Macedonian, Albania, etc.. rather than
wasting time on minor issues.
* Muslims must focus on education, technology and science,
moral and spiritual vales, economical and political stability
in Muslim countries.
DON'Ts;
* Imams in mosques and scholars of Islam must not interpret
verses of Qur'an from their own opinions and preferences. They
must follow the consensus of Islamic scholars about an issue.
* Imams and scholars should not be condemning Muslims of other
sects in their speeches and Friday sermons.
* Muslims should not be spreading hate for other Muslims who
disagree with them as long as both groups follow the
interpretation of Qur'an and Hadith from an authentic scholar
of Islam.
* Muslims should not follow those Imams and scholars who
undermine the honour of Allah's Messenger (peace be upon him)
and consider themselves as the final authority on Islam.
* Muslims should not follow those Imams and scholars who are
disrespectful towards the consensus of scholars of Islam.
* Muslims should not follow those Imams and scholars who ignore
their own innovations in Islam but keep Muslims busy in small
disputes.
* Muslims should not follow those scholars who are very eager
to issue Fatwa against Muslims and declare them KAFIR, MUSHRIK,
JAHANNAMI, BID'ATEE, etc.
* Muslims should not follow those self claimed Imams and
scholars who spread nothing but hate against those Muslims who
do not belong to their sect.
* Muslims should not follow those Imams and scholars who
intentionally dual on minor differences among Muslims.
* Muslims should not follow those Imams and scholars who divide
Muslims rather than uniting them.
