IUML History

And hold fast all of you together, to the cable of Allah, and be not divided among yourselves. – Holy Quran 3: 103

The Indian union Muslim league (IUML), the only representative political organisation of the Muslims of India, has completed 67 years of splendid services to the country and to the community. It has been in the pursuit of socio-political empowerment of the Muslim Ummah and other deprived sections of the people upholding the democratic rights guaranteed by the constitution of our country. IUML has undertaken strenuous efforts to reach out to the grass root level by mobilizing people on secular democratic ideals with a thrust on social justice and communal harmony. IUML calls upon the youth to take stock of the present situation and formulate future course of action in consonance with the lofty objectives of the party.

Let us have a brief overview of the lessons of history. Needless to say, the partition of the country turned to be a setback to the Muslims of northern India. The nation witnessed the unprecedented flow of refugees, millions in number, to and fro. About two million poor people were brutally assassinated in broad day light. Distinguished leaders of Muslim community migrated to the newly formed Muslim nation. Practically there was neither a leader to console the community nor an organization to look after them.

Practice What You Preach

The Prophet (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “A man will be brought forth on the Day of Resurrection and thrown into the Fire. Then his entrails will be spilled out into the Fire, and he will be forced to walk around and around like a donkey in a mill. The people of Hell will gather around him and will say, ‘O So-and-so, what is wrong with you? Did you not enjoin us to do good and forbid us to do evil?’ He will say, ‘I used to order you to do good, but I did not do it myself, and I used to forbid you to do evil, but I used to do it myself.’ Then he will walk around and around like a donkey in a mill.” [Bukhari]

This hadith warns us to practice what we preach. If a person helps to bring others into Allah’s obedience he/she will be rewarded equally for all the good deeds the other person does and all the bad deeds that the other person refrains from. Some people think that with all the credit they might be getting they do not need to bother with their own conduct. The above mentioned hadith describes clearly what the end is of those who neglect themselves. Continue reading “Practice What You Preach”

Mingle because Aloofness Disliked

Bismillah_2

The Prophet (sal Allahu alaihi wa sallam) said: “The Muslim who participates in social matters with other men and shows forbearance if he suffers any pain from them is a far better person than the one who isolates himself from people and is dismayed at the hardships caused by others.” [Tirmidhi]

“Maintain amicable social relations with your friends and relatives. Avoid adopting an attitude of annoyance with them or keeping aloof from them. Continue reading “Mingle because Aloofness Disliked”
