How Islam Promotes Brotherhood Practically

Allah

says

in chapter number 5 or number 90.

Oh you who believe in

most certainly intoxicating and gambling. While

Islam dedication of stones, divination of arrows,

Abstain from this handiwork that you may prosper.

You Allah

saying.

That alcohol,

gambling,

dedication of stones, fortune telling. All these are

sent in handiwork. Absent from it that you

may prosper.

All these things,

it disrupts the universal brotherhood.

Alcohol,

gambling, fortune telling, dedication of stones.

If you stay away from all these

evil acts,

which are signs of the devil, it will

increase the universal

Allah says in Surah Isra chapter number 17

verse number 32. Come not close to adultery,

for it is a shameful deed.

And evil opening other roads to evil.

Adultery is prohibited in Islam.

And Allah says in Surah Hujurat, chapter number

49, verse number 11 and 12. Allah says,

let not one group of men

laugh at the other.

You may never know that the latter may

be better than the former.

Let not one group of women

laugh at the other. You may never know

the latter may be better than the former.

Do not call each other with offensive nicknames.

Do not spy on one another.

Do not backbite.

Are you ready to eat the meat of

your dead brother?

Here, Allah says that if you backbite, if

you speak against someone behind his back, it

is as though you're eating the meat of

your dead brother.

Eating the meat of human being is haram,

but eating dead meat is double haram. Even

the cannibals,

they do not eat the meat of their

own brothers.

So your Allah says that if you backbite,

it is as though you are eating the

meat of a dead brother. And Allah says

in chapter number 104 verse number 1.

Woe to every kind of scandal, manga and

backbiter.

These are guidelines given in the Quran

to promote universal brotherhood.

But besides talking about universal brotherhood,

Islam

says, you should exhibit

universal brotherhood minimum

5 times

everyday

in your practical life.

I'm talking about the 2nd pillar of Islam

that is salah.

When we offer salah,

we practically demonstrate universal brotherhood

5 times a day. Our beloved prophet Muhammad

said.

It's mentioned in Sahih Bukhari,

volume number 1. In the book of Adhan,

chapter number 75, hadith number 692.

Where, Hadith Anas, Middle Arab Buddhism said, that

when we stood for salah,

the shoulder of the companions

tied the shoulder of the other companion. And

a feet tied the feet of the companion.

The beloved prophet, the prophet Muhammadu alaihi wasalam

said. It's mentioned,

boy number 1, in the book of salah,

chapter number 245, hadith number 666.

That the prophet,

before starting salah, he said,

that close in your gaps.

Stand shoulder to shoulder, and do not leave

any gap

for the satan.

So when we offer salah, it is compulsory

that the Muslim, we should stand shoulder to

shoulder

and feet to feet.

Irrespective whether you're rich or poor, whether a

king or a popper. When you stand for

salah, you stand shoulder to shoulder. Irrespective whether

black or white, yellow or brown. When you

stand for salah, you stand shoulder to shoulder.

We Muslims

have to practically demonstrate

universal

minimum 5 times a

day. The other very good example of universal

betahood is the 5th pillar of Islam that

is Hajj.

The Hajj is the biggest annual gathering

in the world. And during Hajj,

nowadays,

about 4,000,000 people

come from different parts of the world. From

America,

from Canada, from UK, from Malaysia, from Indonesia,

from India.

4,000,000 people.

And the men, they are dressed up in

2 pieces

of unfun cloth, preferably white. You cannot differentiate

the person standing next to you, whether he's

a king or a popper. When you're in

Aram, the purpose of the Aram is that

all of them,

they wear the

same clothes,

2 pieces of unsown white cloth.

You cannot identify the person standing next to

you, whether he's a king or a pauper.

And you say

the

Here

I come, oh my lord. Here I come

at your service.

More than 4,000,000 people from different parts of

the world of different nationalities, different colors,

they come

only at the service of the Lord. That

example of universal brotherhood.

example of universal brotherhood.
