Allah sees best, Allah is Great, Allah knows best, Allah judges best. They must face Allah.
Stupid Mufti
subhanallah
Removing books from mosques and libraries doesn’t remove the truth from people’s heart.
يقول الله تعالى: ويمكرون ويمكر الله، والله خير الماكرين
Let them do what ever they want to do. Allah has knowledge over everything
Hasbunallah, Then remain is there anything bad in there books?
we are against there arbitrary judge.
[…] Country of Jordan is under pressure to remove the books of Ibn Taymiyyah, and Egypt has already done that. This goes against the freedom of speech, we cannot undo the books that are […]
Wallahi it won’t works well with them and inshaallahu time will tell the truth.
I’m sure the power that be ie As-Sisi is behind all these supposedly reform of Islam in Egypt.
The hadith of the ignorant scholars giving fataawa yaa ikwaan! الله مستعان
this decision is not from the ulamah of the egypt but the order it was from the government of egypt.
even the ulamah of egypt are sad for this order but they can’t do nothing they don’t have a power to stop the government of egypt.
One of greatest threat Islam is facing in d world is presdent El-Sisi of Egypt. Coz his body language toward Islam is questionable. In fact d very first day I saw him in Aljazeera news tryn to position himself as d military-democratic presdent of Egypt he irritates my feeln. True Islamic teacn is not advocating extremism or fanatism rather humility, humbleness, love n caring for d entire human race. El-Sisi u have not spoken for d Bama muslim , kashmier muslim, palestinian muslim but u busy ur self limiting Islamic books of reputable and noble positive impact to Islam. Most of d aggression d world is seeing with muslim is d level of oppressn n subjugatn they r put tru n eventually turns unbearable n retaliates. Example palestin ok.
that is stupid decision.
May Alllah (swt) destroy this regime and remove them power. And protect those books and knowledge from their Shaytanic hands.
The regime is either Yahood, Shia, or Munafiqoon. May Allah destroy and remove them from power!
Lol thwy will have to remove yhe quraan eventually as theybobviously dint k ow what is stated in it.
They are ruled by the jews and protecting them.
Clearly, the solution of the world’s growing disorder remains ISLAM. To remove the books from the shelves in Egypt and any other country would not change anything. The knowledge has already been internalised and being practiced openly. It is common knowledge that Islam is peace and can never be associated with EXTREMISM.
This has convinced me that El-Sisi is a jew. May Allah treat him in the same manner Ariel Sharon was treated, amin ya Qahhar.
Subhanallah. This is a wrong decision. Allah shall protect the truth, just as he had protected it right from the beginning. They should remember that pharon is from Egypt and he could not found it easy, when he fought against the truth.
No doubt about this, this is the handwork of yahood and moonafikin.may Allah’s rath be with them. Ameen
But Why?! and also the deletion of all these books can never ever destroy the teaching and reforming of ibn Taymiyyah’ ibn baz and ibn uthaimeen as you all knows the Egyptians, or u sahall elucidate in detail the reason of doing all these!
omg, hw cn a Muslim country remove such gr8 theologeons frm their library. Undoubtedly Egypt is ruled by jews.
And yet these are wulaat ul-amr?
No, the truth is that the Zionists are at war with true Islam.
This is a stupid idea and they won’t succeed anymore. Removing books of Salafi is not a solution cause the truth still shall remain the same in the hearts and minds of righteous people. What about salafi websites? What about memorization in their hearts? Shall they ban them also? Or
This is ahate speech and ignition to Jihad.
in fact end time is near. may Allah see us through these fitna
