Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah. - Dear brothers, imagine what will happen if the difference in people's eyes between health and sickness, wealth and poverty, security and panic weakens. - What will happen if this gray feeling spreads? The feeling of not distinguishing between things? Everything is gray...neither white nor black. What do people work for at that time? What is the effort and struggle for? If everything is "all the same" as they say?! - The biggest problem is if this gray thinking moves to the world of faith, the difference in the hearts of Muslims between the true religion and false religions weakens. If the difference weakens, what will drive the Muslim to sacrifices, patience, perseverance in good deeds, and avoiding evil if everything is "all the same"? When the Muslim sees how many disbelievers and polytheists live in blessings while thousands of Muslims die in Africa from famines...when the Muslim sees that the world stops and starts if one of the subjects of the "advanced" countries is harmed, while the blood of Muslims is spilled by the hundreds daily, lightly, no one cares...when the Muslim sees a Jewish prisoner exchanged for more than a thousand Muslim prisoners, some imprisoned just to increase the number and send a psychological message with this exchange...when the Muslim sees all of this, messages reach his subconscious that make the difference between the Muslim and the disbeliever seem insignificant, especially if he forgets that this world is a place of trial, not a place of reward. - All of these are reasons that have led to the spread of the gray feeling, so that the Muslim no longer feels a big difference between right and wrong. And this is a disaster, brothers, because the gray feeling is a virus that attacks the will of the Muslim, discouraging him from adhering to good deeds, avoiding evil, and striving with enthusiasm and activity to spread the religion of Allah the Almighty. Therefore, you will find that the Quran and the Sunnah focus greatly on combating the gray feeling, and clarify that the difference between the Muslim and the disbeliever in belief, value, status with Allah, and fate on the Day of Judgment is a very big difference, like the difference between white and black. And the verses that clarify this difference are many, to the extent that I think this concept (They Are Not Equal) is the most dense and focused concept in the Quran after the concept of monotheism, and it is no wonder, for it is the first fruit of faith in monotheism. Indeed, many verses show the difference between the obedient and the disobedient among Muslims, what about the difference between the obedient believer and the disbeliever?! Listen to some of these verses. Allah the Almighty says: - ((Are those who believe equal to those who are corrupt? They are not equal)) (As-Sajdah 18)... They are not equal. - ((Shall We treat the Muslims like the criminals? How do you judge?)) - ((Do those who commit evil think that We will make them like those who believe and do good deeds, equal in their life and death? Wretched is the judgment they make)) And many more...a very strong focus on this meaning! These verses and others establish the rule: There is no equality in religion, no equality in principles, no equality in value, no equality in reward, and no equality in fate. In the upcoming episodes, God willing, we will review the difference between the obedient Muslim and the hypocrite or polytheist in the light of His saying: ((They Are Not Equal)). Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah.
