Unity of Muslim in this last era?

I found out that Islam have 2 or 3 denominations. The different of the denomination due to the different understanding of Al-Qur’an, but not the central theme of the Islamic faith ( Tawheed ).

I saw many people against each other in Islam. For examples,“ you are Kuffar!” or “you are lost!”. And this will broken the unity of Muslim. We need to tolerance because God only knows the best. Although the intrepretion of Qur’an and Mazhab are different, we need to be unite regardless of Islam denominations because we are believe that there is nothing in the heavens nor on earth that deserves worship except Allah.

For now,we must defend the concept of Tawheed to keep the purity..Waiting for the great Imam lead Muslim to guide us to the right path ..There is a time for people to accept the truth before the Sun rise from the west.

However, there is a failure on the part of some Muslim faithfuls in addressing legitimate concerns that humans have. There are many practices which Islam doesn't advocate but are blindly adopted in the Muslim world. No doubt we need to have an honest discourse amongst ourselves (Muslims) and chart a new way forward. As a timeless message, Islam must and indeed is flexible enough to accommodate the ever-changing global landscape but it is up to Muslims rise up to the challenge and make known to the world what we have to offer.

    t is a fact that Muslims today, are divided amongst themselves. The tragedy is that such divisions are not endorsed by Islam at all. Islam believes in fostering unity amongst its followers.

    The Glorious Qur’an says:

    “And hold fast, all together, by the rope which Allah (stretches out for you), and be not divided among yourselves;”

    [Al Qur’an 3:103]

    Which is the rope of Allah that is being referred to in this verse? It is the Glorious Qur’an. The Glorious Qur’an is the rope of Allah which all Muslims should hold fast together. There is double emphasis in this verse. Besides saying ‘hold fast all together’ it also says, ‘be not divided’.

    The Qur’an further says:

    “Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger”

    [Al Qur’an 4:59]

    All the Muslims should follow the Qur’an and authentic ahadith and be not divided among themselves.

    2. It is prohibited to make sects and divisions in Islam

    The Glorious Qur’an says:

    “As for those who divide their religion and break up into sects, thou hast no part in them in the least: Their affair is with Allah: He will in the end tell them the truth of all that they did.”

    [Al Qur’an 6:159]

    In this verse Allah (swt) says that one should disassociate oneself from those who divide their religion and break it up into sects.

    "For now,we must defend the concept of Tawheed"

    ?

    The prophet pbuh said in many hadith

    "I dont not fear shirk for my Ummah"

    So why do all the wahabis fear it ? Do they have a bad opinion of our Prophet ? They know something he didnt know ?

    They are inflitrating Islam - have destroyed many of the Islamic Historic Sites in Mecca

    And are working to divide the muslims in a cultish fashion...

    "You are Kuffar" - is their favorite motto...

    Most are under 30, you dont meet many wahabis over this age

    Its easy to confuse the youth you see.

    "There are many practices which Islam doesn't advocate "

    This is a ruse, a diversion, a red herring

    WE DONT MAKE TAKFIR OF MUSLIMS !!!!

    WE ARE NOT ROBOTS

    LIFE IS NUANCED

    THERE IS LEGITIMATE DIFFERENCE OF OPINION

    PLEASE dont fall for the wahabi rhetoric akheee

    It is the OPPOSITE of the wahabi opinion, which will elevate the muslims

    as Mercy will engender between muslims, and Allah will grant them victory on the basis of their character...

    It is because OF THE WAHABI position and its reaactionary popularity amongst the youth, that we are in this position of abasement.

    We are not reactionary peoples, we are PROACTIVE in good deeds and encompassing as many people as our hearts can, into the fold of Islam.

    NO. Holy Quran clearly says " Alaikum anfusokum ". Let us not indulge

    in criticizing each other's beliefs and let Allah decide who was right on

    the day of Judgment. Allah has clearly forbidden us to make sects. He

    liked the name of "Muslimeen" given to us by prophet Abraham. So any

    other name, shia, sunni, hanafi, shafei, malki or salafi is haram. I am

    Alhamdo Lillah a Muslim and that is enough for success in this world

    and in the hereinafter!

    Salam I do agree with you that all Muslim people should be united as has been stated in the Qur'an By uniting we will be stronger in this era.

    confident. The Holy Prophet became the 1st interpretor. The huge Hadith textual content cloth is the translation evidence. there's a superbly better artwork of Interpretation, studied as a self-discipline of awareness in Muslim seminaries, the place, interpretation to respond to the questions of the age have been made and presented as Fiqh. the activity keeps to this age.
