Young People Affected by Rebellion and Takfir

Some younger people were affected by the fitna of rebellion and takfir.

Yes, this is an existing reality. What happened in countries is real.

But the remedy is not that we rebel against our societies.

or that we denounce evil rashly and without fiqh in Allah ﷻ's religion.

Denouncing evil may itself be evil.

If denouncing evil is done in the wrong way, it is evil.

And it is greater than the evil at hand.

Keep away from places of evil; save yourself. That is fiqh.

Confusion also befell the students.

Teach the Muslim tawhid.

Surely, a Muslim is worthier to be taught than a non-Muslim.

It is his right to be shown how to follow his creed. It is vital.

I say this is due to weak curricula and weak course materials.

or weak teachers. Both matters must be reviewed.

The curricula should be reviewed and restored to what they once were.

Second, lazy or deficient teachers, or those lacking fiqh, must be replaced.

We must not remain in this state that leads us to dire outcomes. Yes.
