If I could jus...Jazakallah very well put Moulana. <br /><br />If I could just weigh in with my opinion. It is exactly as you say it is, I think one of the biggest issues at the moment is that no one seems to know what to do, nobody was expecting this to happen and neither in the history of Islam has there not been a Khalifat and then the emergence of one.<br /><br />If possible could you point out what the conditions are for a Khalifa himself as well as for a Khalifat? <br /><br />According to my understanding the split between the jihad it's in the world at the moment has come mainly from the war in Syria with one group(jahbat an nusra/aq) saying the need of the time was to fight the regime(Bashar) and not to focus on creating a state as well as that ISIS or IS now to stay in Iraq and not go over to Syria. That was essentially the first difference.<br /><br />The next difference that came about was that IS essentially are a law unto themselves and are not willing to listen to the opinions of other scholars or leaders, personally I feel they have proven themselves correct in this regard as can be seen by the gains made and meticulous planning that has gone into making all of these conquests. <br /><br />The third issue aimed at ISIS is the lack of popular support amongst the more mainstream scholars.<br /><br />The fourth would be labelling them as having a takfiri mentality which may be true for some of the foot soldiers though I have not seen any of this from the senior leadership and where certain governors have overstepped boundaries I've seen those governess immediately removed from their positions.<br /><br />The fifth issue brought up has been that this is not the time for a Khalifat as it cannot be securely established and can essentially be destroyed quite quickly though to a degree I think IS have shown what level of security is available for the Sheikh Abu Bakr to go to the largest masjid in the second largest city in Iraq for half an hour and be able to deliver a khutbah. <br /><br />Another issue which I assume would come up would be from those that make taqleed as I think it is quite clear that IS are essentially salafi and would oppose sufism as well as I assume those that follow ashari/maturidi aqeedah, though would this really be an issue? <br /><br />But ya those are just some of my thoughts and I do thank you Molana for tackling this issue, may Allah reward you for all the work that you do and I'll be looking out for any future posts insha Allah.<br /><br />Was SalaamAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
