A wonderful conversation worthy of being spread.
Khalid came and he was upset while saying:
"All of what we are in today (ie; the state we are today) of lowliness and humiliation is because of these oppressive, corrupted rulers who have destroyed Islam."
Muhammad said to him:
"I did not see you today for the fajr prayer. So why weren't you present for it? Did the rulers prevent you from performing it?"
He said: 'No'
Muhammad said: "and why do I see you shaving your beard while you know that it is a sunnah of your Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم? Did the rulers force you to shave it?"
He said: 'No'
Muhammad said: "And the western clothing I see you wearing, did the rulers order you to wear it?"
He said: 'No'
Muhammad said: "Your garment exceeding pass your ankles which is disobedience to your Lord, did the rulers order you with this?"
He said: 'No'
Muhammad said: "And that box of cigarettes which you are holding in your hands and trying to hide from me, did the rulers buy them for you?"
He said: 'No'
And then suddenly Khalid's phone began to ring with the tone of music so Muhammad then said to him: "This music tone on your phone, did the rulers put it (on your phone) for you?"
He said: 'No'
Muhammad said: "And before all of this do you know the categories of tawheed with which you worship your Lord with?"
He said: 'No'
Muhammad said: "Did the ruler prevent you from learning your belief?"
He said: 'No'
Muhammad said: "This is what is apparent and what is hidden is greater, but I hope by this you have come to know that you ARE THE REASON for the debasement/lowliness of your ummah.
Khalid say: "yes you have spoken the truth."
Then he stayed for a little then he said: "But the rulers ?!!"
Muhammad said: "Contemplate the statement of Allaah the Most High:
And thus We do make the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers, etc.) Auliya' (supporters and helpers) one to another (in committing crimes etc.), because of that which they used to earn. [6:129]
So Khalid said: 'Yes! But what is the solution?!'
Muhammad said: "Allaah سبحانه informed us in His statement:
"Verily! Allah will not change the good condition of a people as long as they do not change their state of goodness themselves (by committing sins and by being ungrateful and disobedient to Allah)." [13:11]
And Allaah did not say until they change their rulers"
