Eid Mubarak to all and the two hadiths


Eid mubarak to all Muslims and may Allah give a speedy victory to the poor Muslims in Syria and give them Blessing in thier brave revolution against the tyrant bashar the duck (Batta).
And may Allah help the Muslims in Mayanmar in their very hard ordeal.

Two hadiths come to my mind:
1)The hadith of the prophet peace be upon him that there muslim ummah will go through 5 phases
1- The phase of prophethood where the prophet will be there
2- khilafah rashida
3- Long Kingship ملك عاض
4- Military Rule (Mulkun Jabri ملك جبري)
5 - Khilafah on the way of prophethood

The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: "The Prophethood will be among you as long as Allah wills, then he will eliminate it if he so wills. Then a khilafah on the model of Prophethood will prevail so long as Allah wills, then he will eliminate it if he so wills. Then there will be a biting monarchy as long as Allah wills, then he will eliminate it if he so wills. Then there will be an oppressive monarchy as long as Allah wills, then he will eliminate it if he so wills. Then a Khilafah on the way of Prophethood will prevail and he kept silent." [Ahmed]

So today we are coming out of military rule phase and going towards khilafah on the way of prophetway ie khilafah rashida again inshaAllah where people elect thier ruler and is not imposed on them and where the muslims unite and where the ruler (khalifah) is there to serve the muslims not to terrorise them. And is there to bring mecry to the world and not harm the world.

2)The other hadith is The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Islam began as a stranger and shall return as a stranger as it began. So give glad tidings to the strangers". [Sahih Muslim]

Connecting with the first hadith it means that Islam is coming back to the earth and that those who bring it back will bring it back via talking (dawa) , not fighting, because that is the way of the prophethood. And that those callers to islam will appear as strangers to the society. So people who speak with new concepts or concepts that seem strange to us are more likely to be those strangers. 

For example there are people who say that Freedom is before Islam ie that people must have free choice before they choose Islam. You cant force them to be muslims at the start. They must have been given free choice. People who say this are Dr Tariq Suwaidan of Kuwait who got attacked by many salafi scholars for making this opinion.

And there are many more like him alhamdulillah eg Dr Adnan Ibrahim, Mustafa Mahmoud (rahimahu Allah), Dhiya al Musawy of bahrain , Amr Khaled who talk on love and mercy, AlHabib Ali Aljefri (sufi scholar but very open). Look them up on youtube and see what else they say.
