Divide and Conquer: Muslims vs Islam: Volume One - Divide and Conquer

For 1300 years, Muslims had lived under some form of consolidated Muslim rule, first under the Abbasid Empire, from 750 AD to the conquest of Baghdad by the Mongols in 1258, followed by the Ottoman Empire, until its collapse following World War I. The Muslims are entirely to be blame for their own demise, but it was not without some assistance from foreign powers, particularly the expanding British Empire and particularly their devastating strategy of Divide and Conquer. First in Arabia, the British instigated the notorious heretical Wahhabi movement to undermine the Ottoman Empire from within. In India, under the British East India Company, and then the British Raj, Wahhabi influence resulted in a quagmire of internecine strife led by the Deobandis, Barelvis and Ahl-i Hadith. These movements were part of a larger trend cultivated by British agents known as Revivalism, an open attack on the legal foundations of Islam, known as the Madhabs, which had long been protected by the “Closing of the Doors of Ijtihad.” That agenda continues to further distance Muslims from the true basis of Sunni Islam in our time, through the most recent manifestation of the Divide and Conquer strategy, that of Salafis against Sufis, or Traditional Muslims, known as Wasatim, who provide accurate criticism of the other, in order to each recruit dupes to their respective deviations.

POSTSCRIPT 
THIS VIDEO NEEDS CRITICAL REVIEW BUT NEVERTHELESS INTERESTING MATERIAL. 

HOW LOW CAN YOU GO.  WHO SAID THAT THERE IS A MUSLIM DISEASE-WAHN IN END TIMES AMONGST MUSLIMS. WHEN REAL ISLAM BECOMES A STRANGER. THAT WAS A PROPHETIC HADITH















[/url]

MOST MUSLIMS ARE DEAF DUMB AND BLIND TO THIS REALITY AND JUST HAVE NOT GOT A CLUE WHAT's GOING  TO UNFOLD. IS THIS SKYSCRAPER REALLY SYMBOLIC OF PROGRESS ? OR THE MANIFESTATION OF ANOTHER ISLAMIC PROPHECY WHERE THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD PBUH STATED THAT THE ARABIAN PENINSULA ARABS WILL BE COMPETING WITH EACH OTHER TO BUILD TALL TOWERS THE AL ABRAJ IN END TIMES.

THERE IS A NEED FOR SERIOUS NEW THINKING AMONGST MUSLIMS LIVING IN THE WESTERN NONMUSLIM WORLD. WHILST ISLAM IS AN UNIVERSAL MESSAGE FOR HUMANITY IT  IS UNDERSTANDABLE FOR MUSLIMS TO SEEK TO SPREAD ISLAM GLOBALLY PEACEFULLY. ALSO MIGRATION ELSEWHERE TO BETTER ONESELF IS PART OF HUMANITY'S CONDITION OR EVEN ESCAPE FROM OPPRESSIVE SOCIO-POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS. THE PERIOD FROM THE POST WAR ERA WAS ONE OF RECONSTRUCTION OF SOCIETIES DESTROYED OR IMPACTED BY WW2. 

WHAT IS MISSING IN THIS DISCUSSION IS QUITE ASTONISHING FROM AN ISLAMIC PERSPECTIVE. IN THE VIDEO THE IMAM TALKS ABOUT THE ISLAMIC PERSPECTIVE OF HIJRAH( EMIGRATION).  IN ISLAMIC LAW HE IGNORES OR DISMISSES THE FACT THAT SINCE 9/11 IN PARTICULAR IF NOT EARLIER THE WESTERN WORLD CHANGED DIRECTION AND POLICIES WITH REGARD TO THE MUSLIM WORLD. BASICALLY THE GWOT- THE GLOBAL WAR OF TERROR HAS BEEN ATTACKING MUSLIM COUNTRIES AND IS AT WAR.  OCCUPIED FILISTEEN IS BEING SUBJECT TO A LIVESTREAMED GENOCIDE AND ETHNIC CLEANSING. AND IT IS THE ISLAMIC HOLY LAND.   THAT IS THE KEY ISSUE. IN ISLAMIC LAW IT IS FORBIDDEN TO LIVE IN ANY NONMUSLIM COUNTRY AT WAR WITH MUSLIM COUNTRIES. IT IS FOR OBVIOUS REASONS. 

IN THE VAST EXPANSE OF ISLAMIC HISTORY MUSLIMS DIDN'T LIVE IN NONMUSLIM COUNTRIES AT WAR WITH THE ISLAMIC WORLD. WERE MUSLIMS LIVING IN THE LANDS OF THE CRUSADERS WHEN THEY THEY ATTACKED THE MIDDLE EAST?
SOMETIMES ONE REFLECTS ON THIS SITUATION AND ASKS IS ONE TALKING TO THE DEAF, DUMB AND BLIND.
