جFreedom of the word and impudence! by Dr ISLAM ALMAZENY
Freedom of the word and impudence!
Praise be to Allah, the most Gracious, the most Merciful,
Peace and blessings of Allah be upon his prophet, Mohammad and his family and companions.
There were debates concerning the freedom of a writer when the literature handled was conforming with Allah's commands. Some writers accused us for limiting their freedom of expression and hindering their creativity and openness!
I wrote some thing for them, taking into consideration that no particular person is meant by my words but all of them are! All of those writers are accomplices, with different shares!
All of them from blasphemous writers, to the sensual and disgraceful, and even those who think of themselves as respectfully creative! They praised Jerusalem in a poem; but wrote another dozen of lies and false!
They publish stories and lyrics with graphics of girls and boys! Incident the girls with red hearts and flowers.
They exchange 'pure love touches' (committing the adultery of hand)!
Behind the walls of the so called university campus, their poems are almost references to all students!
One who wants to 'love' a student without enduring the punishment of adultery!
Exchange of poems, phone calls, hand touching, looks, words, all is done!
They dedicate to each other the romantic love lyrics and all the small things.
All those things are forbidden because they are unlawful, disregarding the tradition of the prophet, peace be upon him.
As for us our freedom is flawless. But still, there are not enough holders! May Allah bless us with the real guidance. We pray to him and ask to show more people to the right path.
A real Muslim will not feel restricted or suppressed.
A real Muslim will not go and break the rules when the life is wide enough for him/ her.
Honesty is the heartbeat of a truthful Muslim. Love will then mean more abiding and following to be closer to Allah.
For an honest Muslim, being a writer does not only mean to become famous or to just write all that goes on in ones mind.
It does not mean to just write with out a real purpose! A Muslim writer does not make it a priority to satisfy every whim without contemplating the consequences.
Other important matters occupy a Muslim writer's mind is his heart is rather busy with issues that gratify him.
Freedom is just another word, its meaning differ according to the individual's culture and perspective. There will always be a certain amount of common thought.
There will always be however a disagreement among some contents.
The perception of the universe governs ones principle and interpretation of life meanings.
Love, peace, freedom, violence, right and humanity …all are various concepts that differ in meaning according to the context.
Some pagans understood that:
Ghandi once said that correcting words is the first step to fixing ideas.
Despite of being non Muslim, what Ghandi had arrived at is a solid Qur'aanic truth.
Qura'an and sunnah agree that correcting terms will not allow Satan to play around with words.
Wrongdoing is rarely identified with the use of the right designating term, whether an individual or the whole nation are prompted by the devil to use a different term with no different connotation!
Allah the Al-Mighty talked about the worshipped items that are named by different other terms.
In sunnah, the drinker of wine in the last period of time is called by other names.
The wicked mischievous devil swears and pretends to be truthful!
Not all those who act as an honest confident is as what they claimed.
As in surah Al-A'raf, when the devil attempted seducing Adam, our father peace be upon him, and swore to be honest and sincere!
It was then the forbidden tree was named the tree of eternity.
Wine is called 'source of joy'! Following ones desires is called 'average'!
Recanting is called progress!
Obscenity is called art!
Whoever runs out on ones duties has become free and so on.
A true believer can tell the difference between freedom and unaccountability, the difference between being free and being irresponsible.
Understanding the true freedom is crucial.
It is needed for the good of the whole universe, not for just an individual Muslim.
When crazy freedom spreads, the whole universe can suffer corruption, the end will definitely be devastating.
The unreasonable thinkers were not convinced with what I believe!
Difference in opinions will remain between us.
Writers who are pro bad writings will not appear as being indifferent towards freedom.
They are in disagreement regarding the entity of Allah. They however hide behind their liberal masks.
As for us, our freedom is for real, we enjoy it ultimately.
Our happiness is not limited to physical pleasures.
We consider the consequences and our needed freedom is uniquely grand.
It creates inner content so we can overcome obstacles without compromises.
Did you know about Bilal?
He encountered the utmost difficulties, smiled at the burning heat of the desert, disobeyed his non-believer master, he cried, "One god! One god!" and "the Creator of stones and trees…", "to whom my forehead touched the ground in worship…"
Is that what we call as freedom?! It goes beyond the boundaries!
Didn't he rebel against his master by challenging everything?!
He tolerated the pain of the body tortured!
The freedom of Islamic literature is within what Allah has stipulated.
For example is to fight against darkness, to describe the universe, to provoke human thoughts, to enlighten with words and poetry, and to love the one with whom the relation is lawful and so as to praise and philander the spouse.
However words about ones spouse are not to arouse people's lust and desires about that spouse.
To praise the spouse and fly away with the feelings is fine within the allowed limits.
