The Ten Vices of the Evil thought of Al-Harooriya

Dr Tariq Abdelhaleem

We praise Allah and pray that His peace and blessings be upon His messenger and all those who follow him. It is most beneficial to always remind our readers of the deviant flaws and defects in the innovative ideologies so that it’s always clear and present in the minds of Ahlul Sunnah, especially those who are specialists [in the field of Islamic groups]. This has been our practice for over 35 years with the ideology of Irja’a (الإرجاء) as represented by the Muslim Brotherhood specifically in the past three years that followed 25 January 2011 revolution in Egypt. We used to publish one to two articles daily to expose their policies which were based on a flawed ideology of Irja’a over multiple generations.

Time after time, we exposed the vices of the Harooriya thought in different forums. However, as Allah commands his messenger: “وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ تَنفَعُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ” (And remind, for indeed, the reminder benefits the believers - 51:50).

The ten vices of Harooriya:

Making Takfir of Muslims and using general Shariah rules to claim that Muslims are apostates without proper justification. Only those with proper knowledge and are just and fair have deep understanding of Shariah rules with its intricacies, complexities and particulars; not those who are oppressors and ignorant.
The wide-spread use of killings and slaughter and rejoicing in such actions based on rules that are NOT applied correctly from Shariah by false-students of knowledge and pretend-judges; if they only knew the punishment of Allah for such actions, they would have cried tears of blood instead of enjoying and rejoicing in them. The vast killings by Harooriya have made those fighting for Allah’s sake from Ahlul Sunnah and making true Jihad fear their treachery more so than the Syrian regime or at least as much.
Glorifying the entity that they proclaimed a “State” so much so that it has become an idol they worship in every sense of the word. In fact, their worship of their idol-state has at least equalled if not surpassed those who idolize democracy and worship their parliaments.
Contempt for scholarly knowledge and scholars as well as allowing ignorant laymen to judge and decree in matters of blood and property so they can gain popularity with other laymen and become their leaders.
Replacing scholars with Rowaybidhat (رويبضات)[1] when they couldn’t find a scholar to agree with them and all the well-known names swayed away from them. They installed ignorant people, with no previous experience in scholarly matters or writings or matters of Jihad, only because they supported, agreed and justified their ways.
Their dreadful manners and vulgarity and absolute arrogance and unjustified self-conceit which Shaytan uses to vail them from the truth. This arrogance is nothing more than foolishness and is the “Rann” (الران)[2] or the stain that covers their hearts
The use of lying, treachery and deceit under the guise that those Muslims are apostates and are at war with them so it is permissible to lie, cheat and deceit in times of war!!!
Dealing and cooperating with pillars of former Baath party members under the pretence that they have repented. In fact, they are now in positions of leadership which allows them to manipulate this entire entity. Of course the Baathi members don’t care what banner is raised as long as they are manipulating its course and direction.
Declaring war against international powers which have real power regardless of what anyone says. These powers must be dealt with based on a clear strategy, not based on reckless actions especially one that don’t have justification in Shariah. Such is the killing of journalists which was foolish and used as a justification to lure the big powers in the region.
Last but not least, promoting this ideology and thought among ignorant and laymen Muslims who don’t have the knowledge or sense to see its deviance. This is the most dangerous and destructive vice because this disease of making Takfir and killing of innocent Muslims causes the most harm to this Ummah, for this generation and other generations to follow. Our Ummah has many diseases that are tearing it apart in addition to the Taghoots of Arab and Foreign Rulers who are suffocating the Ummah. But this cursed cancer hits it from where it least suspects and from where its scholars have failed to stand against it and provide the right cure allowing this disease to spread without proper resistance as we shall explain in our next article insha Allah.

[1] Rowaybidhat is plural for Rowaybidha which mentioned in the Hadith of the Prophet: “Rowaybidha will start appearing and people will start following them. When he, peace be upon him, was asked about Rowaybidha. He, peace be upon him, responded: laymen people who have no Islamic knowledge talking in religious matters which people would like to know.”

[2] Raan is mentioned in verse 83:14 “كَلَّا ۖ بَلْ ۜ رَانَ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبِهِم مَّا كَانُوا يَكْسِبُونَ”
