THE CONCEPT OF UNITY AMONG MUSLIM

Who are Ahl’l-Sunnah wa’l-Jamā‘ah or “the People of Sunnah and Community”?

The characteristics of Ahl’l-Sunnah wa’l-Jamā‘ah or “the People of Sunnah and Community” meaning “those that follow the way of the Prophet (sallallāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam), and stick close to the community of Muslims upon the way of his Companions and the rightly guided Imams after them” as expressed by many of our scholars in their books on ‘aqīdah, manhaj and usūl’l-dīn (tenets of belief, methodology and the foundations of the religion) .

Complete-balanced-moderate deen(ahle sunnat wal jamaat)  V/S  social- political -religious -economic  -military -reformist movements in islam .

Weakness of the Islamic movements:

1. Partisan mentality-they have allowed themselves to turn into groups at odds with the higher interest of Islam.

2. Confused- about distinction between the sacred texts with human interpretation and jurisprudence of ijtihad based on these texts.

3. Claim- claiming that they are the sole possession of the Truth, thus conferring on their own human thought and ijtihad the sanctity of fundamental texts.

4. Deluded— into believing that they could do without intellectual effort or ijtihad so long as they had the Quran and the Sunnah to hand.

5. Failed – to link the Islamic text with the real world and lost the ability to actualize the faith.

6.Reforming – launched themselves as full-fledged organization well before determining or reforming the world of their thoughts.

7. suiting their requirements- haphazardly select notions from the real world and Muslim tradition in order to respond to the requirements of their organizations and everyday activities instead of proceeding in the light of sound and rational judgment.

8. Claimed to embody, through organization and membership

9. intellectual immaturity and  fondness for exclusiveness and theatrics.

10. failed to draw up appropriate programmes for themselves, thus reflecting a poor grasp of the methodological foundations of Islamic doctrines and Shariah.
