Bismi Llāhi r-Raḥmāni r-Raḥīm:

(Qur’ān 22:38). ‘Inna Allaha yudafi’u ‘ani l-ladhina ‘amanu’, ‘Truly, Allah defends those who believe.’ Sadaqa Llahu l-‘Azim. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla defends those who believe. He ﷻ says, “I will defend you” for them. It is the Promise and Word of Allah ‘Azza waJalla. Defending Muslims and Mu’mins is special to Allah ﷻ. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla protects them.

Why are we telling this? Because they are attacking Muslims and Mu’mins everywhere in the world. People think there is no one to defend them. There is, Shukr to Allah ﷻ. The Greatest Defender is Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. We don’t want anyone better than Him ﷻ, as there cannot be.

Therefore, Mu’mins and Muslims should not fall into despair by looking at the condition of this world. They shouldn’t lose hope. Everything is in the Hand of Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla. No one can win against Allah., “There is no Winner but Allah.” Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla is the Winner. And losers are those who are with shaytan. Those who go against Allah ﷻ are losers.

There are ignorant scholars now who are trying to destroy Islam from both inside and outside. Allah ﷻ will not give them any chance. Such people won’t be able to overcome even a single person if Allah ﷻ wants it. Everything has its time. When the time comes, all this Kufr, Nifak/hypocrisy, Shirk/polytheism and oppression will be over with the permission of Allah ﷻ.

Therefore, Mu’mins should be at rest. Allah ‘Azza wa-Jalla defends us. Even though we don’t have guns, their guns and weapons will not affect us at all. As long as Allah ﷻ protects us, we will be protected with the permission of Allah ﷻ. Therefore, Mu’mins should not fall into despair and hopelessness.

Sincere Mu’mins are targeted more everywhere. They are the biggest enemies of shaytan. How lucky are we to be the biggest enemies of shaytan. There cannot be anything better than this. The more you are an enemy to shaytan, the more you are a friend to Allah ﷻ and a beloved person of Allah ﷻ. May Allah ﷻ make us all enemies of shaytan insha’Allah. May He ﷻ give strength to our Iman.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.
