Who Will Stand Up For The Prisoners??

There are currently hundreds of thousands of Muslim brothers and sister languishing in the jails of the Kuffar, across the World. Many of them have to undergo unimaginable torture and suffering. Every day brings new hardships and pain. And perhaps one of the most painful things to them is the knowledge that the Ummah- this Ummah of brotherhood, unity and compassion- has almost completely forgotten about them.

But we need to ask ourselves the question- Who are the ones truly at a loss here?

When Allah imprisons Believers, there are two parties being put through a trial- the prisoners…and us. The prisoners are being tried to establish their patience and trust in Allah, and many of them, through doing so, are earning their Jannah. As for us, we are being tried to show who are those who will stand up in aid of our brothers and sisters.

Alhamdulillah, there are a number of sincere Mujahideen who have stepped forward and are giving their lives so that these evil regimes may be toppled and the prisoners may walk free; and others are tirelessly working to raise awareness regardign the prisoners and secure their release. But as for the majority of us, we have somewhat thrown this duty out of our mind and are contented with reading our salah, fasting, and doing a few other acts of worship. But if we have abandoned our brothers and sisters in their time of need, how can we expect Allah’s Help in Our time of need (The day of Qiyamah)??

Let us make a firm pledge to change our focus from the pleasures of the lowly World to that of the Eternal Hereafter, and let us strive to rescue our noble brothers and sisters from the shackles of the kuffar.

They are securing Jannah by overcoming their trials…are you??
