In the subconscious of some people, there is a flawed logic which states that one should endure pain for religion, that people should not laugh, should not have fun and that otherwise it would not be possible to go to Heaven. According to this mentality, the flawed mindset claiming that ‘religion should be inextricably difficult for people to advance well in religion,’ prevails among them. In fact, Islam always brings the freedom of Heaven. All true religions, including the religion the Prophet Abraham brought, the one the Prophet Solomon brought and the religion our Prophet (saas) brought bring the spirit, the beauty, the freedom, the quality and the joy of Heaven. The hypocritical systems on the other hand bring the dilemma of hell, the fruitlessness and the torment of hell. With the Qur’an, Our Prophet (saas) brought utmost freedom and preached this to people. God deemed the freedoms people want in their hearts lawful with the Qur’an. He removed all the pressures on people. Commands bringing freedoms came one after the other with the Qur’an. God removed the heavy chains on people. As the freedoms enjoyed by the believers increased, the hypocrites got jealous and imagined that they had thus attained an advantage in front of the public. They tried to influence people by saying ‘we are more conservative, they are (the prophets and the companions) are living by religion easier and are changing our religion.” All the hypocrites talk about is their criticisms about how the Prophet lived religion. They state that they do not trust the Prophet in every speech they make. They regard every command about the freedoms God revealed to our Prophet with suspicion. Those hypocrites with that treacherous and ignoble mentality became stronger after our Prophet (saas) passed away and created the foundation of the Orthodox Islamic understanding. They added their own horrifying interpretations that humiliate women and claim that women are satanic and should be beaten as if they were in Islam. Muslims that came afterwards claimed that false, fabricated interpretations unknowingly as if they were the commands of God. We will insha’Allah correct this error that reached today from those days by preaching the true Islam as explained in the Qur’an.
Even the fiercest opponents have subconsciously accepted the real Islam that brings rationality, love, kindness, beauty and quality to the forefront, as explained in the Qur’an. Everyone is aware of the fact that there is no other livable model other than the real Islam the we are preaching.
Hypocrites are one of the greatest dangers facing the Islamic countries. Hypocrites present themselves as honest, rational people who live by Islam. But it is not Islam that they live by, theirs is a religion they have come up with in their minds. 99 % of the Qur’an doesn’t exist in the religion of the hypocrites.
Religion would not destroy one's life. Religion gives joy to life. When people are religious they become lively, joyous and full of life. Since the traditionalist understanding of Islam preaches the opposite of this, people regard being religious as being introverted and as forfeiting life. When that is the case, they wait to get older to start practicing religion. They think; ‘When I get older I will not enjoy life anyway, so I won’t be losing anything while practicing religion.” Actually religion is practiced both while young and while old. Delaying the practice of religion to one’s old age is a delusion caused by the traditionalist understanding of Islam.
Religion brings freedom to people. Some people got into a panic when they saw that religion brings freedom. Actually, religion is the system that brings the highest level of freedom to this world.
The great majority of the religious conservatives do not even think of preaching religion to women who wear décolleté. It is not right to discard such a great mass. It is the responsibility of Muslims to communicate the message of God to such people as well. We are practically the only community who is able to reach that segment of the society. We have been instrumental for that segment of the society to love religion, to agree with Islam and to see the fact that religion is easy to live by.
