  • Silence For Avoiding Problem

    Posted by Abdullah AbdulRahman on January 7, 2022 at 11:07 am

    Assalamualaikum

    If a person with evidences believes that the religious thought of Ghamidi sahab is right but in some cases while talking on some topic with others telling the opinion which he thinks is not right but in our traditional Islamic thought it is believed,so will he answerable to God. For example the first revelation, a person agrees with the Ghamidi sahab but while talking with someone on some topic or telling someone about first revelation, he tells traditional point of view but inside he knows Ghamidi sahab’s point of view is right, so for avoiding tension he says that the first revelation which came was “Iqra”,so will he be answerable to God?

    Silence is better than giving a wrong opinion under societal pressure.

    But if in some situation, under extreme societal or family pressure, one opts a traditional view point but didn’t mean it, just to avoid repercussions, hopefully his excuse will be considered. But one should never himself become a part of such view if it is an innovative/polytheistic ritual or something along the same lines.

    Secondly, it depends whether it is just a matter of application (‘Fara‘)or something which relates to faith/pillars of Islam (‘Usul‘). If it’s the former, then accountability criteria should logically be less severe.

      There is no differences of opinion among the majority of scholars including Ghamidi sahab regarding the pillars of Islam , right?

      Yes, that is correct.
