We have confined religion to mere rituals, yet the most fundamental forms of religion are justice and human rights. Fasting, zakat... all are obligatory upon the Ummah, which is why you conduct research, form beliefs, present evidence, and establish governance. How can one remain silent against the oppressed?
Or simply side with the oppressor through resolutions — that is the question of Muslim moral integrity. We have adopted a point of selective religiosity. Listen, the community owes its honor to justice — take rights as much as they are due, take as many followers as there are.
The community flows with pride.
The Quran says: "O you who believe! Stand firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allah, even if it be against yourselves, your parents, or your relatives." (Surah An-Nisa 4:135) The simple truth is that when we are in need, we turn to Allah for help. Then why do we hesitate to stand for justice when the time for justice comes? Religion is not merely about rituals. It is character under pressure — it is revealed when cracks appear alongside one's companions. But they say that is what true faith is.
