Allāh gives victory to the Muslims when they fulfil the conditions of victory and authority.
Allāh, the blessed and most High, said:
{Allāh will surely support those who support [His cause]. Indeed, Allāh is powerful and mighty. They are those who, if We give them authority in the land, establish ṣalāh, give zakāh, enjoin what is right, and forbid what is wrong. And to Allāh belongs the outcome of [all] matters} [20:40]
The context of this blessed āyah contains five causes – if the people of Imān fulfil them – they will be deserving of victory and authority.
1st matter: Establishing tawḥīd and ikhlāṣ
Making all actions sincere for Allāh, the exalted. This includes jihād and all other acts of ‘ibādah (worship). This is taken from the saying of Allāh:
{Allāh will surely support those who support [His cause]} [20:40]
i.e. a person seeks the Face of Allāh through his acts of obedience, he does not desire pride, fame, showing off or to be heard. Rather, he only desires the help and victory of Allāh, the majestic, and to aid the religion
Ikhlāṣ (sincerity) is the greatest cause of authority and victory. Allāh, the blessed and most high, said:
{Allāh has promised those who believe among you and do righteous deeds that He will surely grant them succession [to authority] upon the earth just as He granted it to those before them and that He will surely establish for them [therein] their religion which He has preferred for them and that He will surely substitute for them, after their fear, security, [for] they worship Me, not associating anything with Me. But whoever disbelieves after that – then those are the defiantly disobedient} [24:55]
2nd matter: Establishing ṣalāh.
This is by being diligent regarding them and fulfilling them along with their pillars, obligations, and conditions, within the legislated times, as Allāh, the blessed and most high, ordered us.
Ṣalāh, O believers, is also from the greatest causes of victory and authority. Allāh, the most high, said:
{Seek help through patience and ṣalāh} [02:153]
3rd matter: Giving zakāh
Zakāh is given to those deserving of it as Allāh ordered it to be given with goodness from a person’s heart. Through it, souls are purified, and the needs of the poor and needy are fulfilled. zakāh is a cause for the Ummah to be honoured, gain authority, become established and materialistic strength is acquired. Only Allāh knows the amount of evil that is prevented due to giving zakāh, and how much victory and authority is gained due to it.
4th matter: Calling to goodness
This is calling to everything that Allāh and His Messenger commanded, including the obligations of Islām as well as the various voluntary acts of worship. This rectifies people and is an avenue of sincere advice, protecting their honour and authority, which is only attained by them obeying Allāh, and abiding by His laws.
5th matter: Warning against evil
Evil actions bring about harm upon the Ummah, and severe calamities; evil actions are a reason for more evil to become widespread. Therefore, by prohibiting all evil and warning against it, the Ummah is protected from adversities, and a painful ending.
[Conclusion]
We should reflect upon these five great matters that Allāh, the blessed and most high, has combined within one āyah. The Ummah implementing them is the greatest avenue for it attaining authority and becoming victorious, along with success in this life and the Hereafter.
خمسة أمور تنتصر بها الأمة
المرجع:islamek.net/play.php?catsmktba=1745
نصرهم جل وعلا لقيامهم بأسباب النصر وموجبات التمكين
قال الله تبارك وتعالى :
﴿ وَلَيَنْصُرَنَّ اللَّهُ مَنْ يَنْصُرُهُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَقَوِيٌّ عَزِيزٌ * الَّذِينَ إِنْ مَكَّنَّاهُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ أَقَامُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَآتَوُا الزَّكَاةَ وَأَمَرُوا بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَنَهَوْا عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ وَلِلَّهِ عَاقِبَةُ الْأُمُورِ﴾ [الحج:40-41] .
وقد تضمَّن هذا السياق المبارك العظيم ذكرٌ لخمسة أسباب عظيمة إذا حققها أهل الإيمان- استحقوا بذلك النصر والتمكين :
أولها: تحقيق التوحيد وإخلاص
العمل لله جل في علاه في الجهاد أو غيره ؛ وذلك مستفاد من قوله: ﴿ وَلَيَنْصُرَنَّ اللَّهُ مَنْ يَنْصُرُهُ﴾ أي يبتغي بعمله وجه الله لا يريد به فخرًا ولا شهرةً ولا رياءً ولا سمعة ، وإنما يبتغي بذلك نصر الله جل وعلا ونصر دينه ؛ وهذا الإخلاص -عباد الله- هو أعظم موجبات التمكين والنصر، قال الله تبارك وتعالى :
﴿ وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِنْكُمْ وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ لَيَسْتَخْلِفَنَّهُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ كَمَا اسْتَخْلَفَ الَّذِينَ مِنْ قَبْلِهِمْ وَلَيُمَكِّنَنَّ لَهُمْ دِينَهُمُ الَّذِي ارْتَضَى لَهُمْ وَلَيُبَدِّلَنَّهُمْ مِنْ بَعْدِ خَوْفِهِمْ أَمْنًا يَعْبُدُونَنِي لَا يُشْرِكُونَ بِي شَيْئًا ﴾ [النور:55]
والثاني : إقام الصلاة
بالمحافظة عليها بأركانها وواجباتها وشروطها وأوقاتها كما أمر الله تبارك وتعالى ؛ فإن الصلاة -يا معاشر المؤمنين- أعظم أسباب النصر وأعظم موجبات التمكين ، والله يقول : ﴿ اسْتَعِينُوا بِالصَّبْرِ وَالصَّلَاةِ﴾ [البقرة:153] .
والثالث: إيتاء الزكاة
لمستحقيها كما أمر الله بذلك طيبةً بها النفوس ؛ لتزكو بذلك -عباد الله- نفوس العباد ، ولتُسد حاجة الفقراء والمساكين وذوي الحاجات ، وليكون ذلك -عباد الله- سببًا لعز الأمة وتمكنها وثباتها وقوة لُحمتها ؛ فإن في أداء الزكاة من دفع الشرور وتحقيق النصر وحصول التمكين ما لا يعلمه إلا الله جل في علاه .
الرابع : الأمر بالمعروف
وهو ما أمر الله تبارك وتعالى به وما أمر به رسوله صلى الله عليه وسلم من فرائض الإسلام وواجبات الدين ورغائب الطاعات المتنوعات ، إصلاحًا للعباد ونصحًا لهم وحفظًا لعزهم وتمكينهم ؛ فإن ذلك إنما يكون لهم بطاعة الله ولزوم شرعه جل في علاه .
الخامس: النهي عن المنكر
فإن المنكرات شرورٌ على الأمة وبلاءٌ عظيم وشرٌ مستطير ، وفي النهي عنها والتحذير منها صيانة للأمة وحفظ لها من عواقبها الوخيمة ونهاياتها الأليمة.
لنتأمل هذه الأمور العظيمة الخمسة التي جمعها الله تبارك وتعالى في هذا السياق ؛ فإن تحقيق الأمة لها أعظم موجبات تمكينها ونصرها ، وعزها وفلاحها ، وسعادتها في دنياها وأخراها
