in which God speaks directly to Muhammad] which is in the Sahih Muslim: "I created all of
my servants as adherents of the true religion. Satans come to them and turn them away
from their religion and forbid them (to do) what has been made lawful for them and
command them to associate with Me that which I have not sanctioned." He [Muhammad]
(peace and blessings be upon him) said in the same hadith, "Verily, God commanded me to
burn the Quraysh. I said, Lord, they will crush my head, calling it bread.” [ie. “They will
crush my head like bread.” It is as if he (peace and blessings be upon him) is saying, “O
Lord! I am weak and those around me are not able to defend me against that.” He
(powerful and glorfied is He) said, “Turn them out as they turned you out, fight them and
We shall aid you, provide and you shall be provided for. Send an army and We will send five
of its like. With those who obey you, kill those who disobey you.”
The prerequisite and the path which we must walk until we arrive at that stage and the things
we must do to return the wayward flocks among the unbelievers to their original state—
which the satans corrupted by stirring up dust, doubts, and base desires until they prevent
the unbelievers from seeing the signs in the universe and in themselves—is to work to burn
the homes and countries of the unbelievers and to fight alongside of those who obey God
against those who disobey. Whether they are eradicated and God delivers the earth and its
human inhabitants from them or God shows them signs and proofs in order to guide them,
we cherish both, as happened with the Quraysh.
Any delay, retreat, or diversions in this matter in particular or holding back the youth who
must carry it out will diminish five times its equivalent in (the sending of) angels and the
divine miracles that accompany them.
