13. THE SHARIAH AND ITS
APPLICATION
After going through some articles on
da’wah
by this
author on the internet, one reader sent his strong
reaction by e-mail. He rejected the point of view
expressed in a hard-hitting manner. By citing
certain instances from the article, he wrote that the
point of view advocated by the author was quite
contradictory to the Quran. The following is a part
of what that he had to say:
Maulana Wahiduddin says: Muslims should
exercise patience against atrocities committed
by other nations and engage themselves in
da’wah
work. Whereas in the Quran, in sharp
contrast to this point of view, God Almighty
says:
And fight them until there is no more
fitnah
,
and religion becomes Allah’s, in its entirety
(8:39)
Then, whom we are to pay heed to, Allah or
Maulana Wahiduddin?
