THE REQUIREMENTS OF IMAN FOR THE CARRIER OF THE CALL
Belief in Allah obliges the correct dependence (Tawakul) on him, and to seek assistance from Him,because it is Him alone who knows the secrets, and what is hidden, and he gives success to the carriers of the call, and guide them to the successful path, and the path of guidance. That is why Iman should be strong, and should have complete dependence on Allah, and to consistently seek assistance from Allah Tall.
Iman necessities the believer to believe in the ideology, i.e. to believe in Islam, because it comes from Allah Tall. This belief must be well established, and definite, containing no doubts; and there shouldn’t even be the possibility of doubt creeping into it, because every doubtful thought regarding the ideology will lead to failure, indeed it might lead to kufr and disobedience, we seek refuge to Allah from such a thing.
This strong belief in which there is no doubt is a must for the carrier of dawah. Allah Tall says: (TMQ)
“That book, in which there is no doubt, and is a guidance for the God-fearing”.
For it is Allah who guarantees the continuity of the advancement of the dawa in quick steps in its straight path.This belief obliges that the dawa should be blatant, challenging everything, challenging the customs, traditions, the defective ideas and the incorrect concepts; challenging even the public opinion if it was wrong, even if it means undertaking struggle with it, challenging the doctrines, the believes (religions) even if it means being exposed to its followers partisan attitude.
That is why the Islamic dawa, which is based on the Islamic aqeeda, is distinctly characterized with frankness, boldness, strength and thought, and challenges anything which contradicts with the thought and method.
The Islamic dawa exposes its falsehood regardless of the consequences, or the circumstances, whether the majority of the people agreed or disagreed with it, accepted or rejected and fought it. That is why the carrier of the call does not sweet-talk the nation, or adulate, or go with the ones who hold the power such as the rulers and others; does not flatter them or but holds tight to the ideology taking nothing account other the ideology alone.
This belief necessities that sovereignty should just be given to the ideology alone, i.e. Islam and nothing else, and to consider the other ideologies to be kufr, regardless of their diversity and differences. The only deen acceptable for Allah is Islam, and everybody who does not believe in Islam is a kaffur in the Islamic viewpoint.
That is why it is absolutely forbidden for the dawah carrier, to say to the ones who bear other than Islam whether it was a deen or an ideology to hold on tight to your deen or ideology, but must call them to Islam using wisdom and beautiful preaching so that they embrace it. This is because the dawah necessities that the carriers should work to make the sovereignty belong to Islam alone.
This means that we do not force people to embrace Islam, and to leave them and leave what they worship, and belief in., as long it is individual not communal, and as long as it does not have an entity inside the entity of Islam, and that is why parties and political structures based on other than Islam are not allowed to exist, but it is allowed to have Islamic parties and groups inside the boundaries of Islam. This means that ideology alone will live in society, and sovereignty of the ideology for the dawah carrier necessities that the loyalty is for the ideology alone not to himself, or to his interests, desires, home land or nation, For sovereignty to the Share in the behavior of the Daai, in his thoughts, speech and actions, and to Allah is the success.
