....And the Jews and Christians will never be pleased wit...

[fisabililah]

{"And the Jews and Christians will never be pleased with you until you follow their way..."} [al-Baqarah; 120]

"...so, this is their real problem. They do not lack the clear proofs, nor do they lack convincing arguements from you that you are upon the truth, and that what has come to you from your Lord is the truth. You can present to them whatever you wish, and you can be kind to them as much as you wish, but none of this will please them in the least.

They will be pleased by one thing and one thing only: that you follow their ways and abandon what you are upon of the truth.

It is this eternal 'aqidah whose confirmation we see in every time and place...it is this belief that is the essence and reality of the battle that the Jews and Christians are inciting against the Muslim jama'ah in every land and in every era. It is the battle of belief that has reared its head, between the camp of Islam and these two camps that occasionally differ and quarrel between each other. They differ in the secondary aspects of the same creed that is common between them, but when it comes to fighting Islam and the Muslims, they are always in complete agreement!

Verily, it is the battle of beliefs, in its essence and reality. However, the two camps that are in enmity towards Islam and the Muslims apply various names to this battle, and they raise above it various banners - all out of evil and deceit. They experienced the zeal of the Muslims towards their religion and belief when they faced them under the banner of 'aqidah. As a result, the stubborn enemies changed the banner of the fight. They no longer announce it as a battle in the name of belief - which is what it really is - out of fear of the surging zeal that would be evoked if they did so. Rather, they announce it in the name of land, economics, politics, military bases, etc., and they throw into the minds of the heedless ones among us that the issue of belief has become a thing of the past, having no relevance today, and that it we should not raise a banner and fight in its name! This is the characteristic of these idiotic blind followers.

They do all of this to protect themselves from the surging zeal that would be unleased for the sake of this belief, even though - between themselves - the international Zionists, Crusaders, and Communists all plot this battle first and foremost to destroy this solid boulder that they have been nudging for a long time, and which will destroy them all in the end!

Verily, it is a battle of beliefs. It is not a battle over land, crops, military bases, or any of these other empty banners. They impose these concepts on us out of an alterior motive: in order to deceive and distract us from the reality and nature of the battle. So, if we are deceived by this deception of theirs, and we distance ourselves from Allah's guiding of His Prophet and Ummah in this regard, then we have nobody to blame but ourselves, as He is the most Truthful of speakers: {"And the Jews and Christians will never be pleased with you until you follow their way..."}

So, this is the only price that they are willing to accept. Anything else will be rejected and pushed back."

well, the West is secularized, they don't really believe in God

their view is, "hey if we can fully secularize the Muslim world, the belief in God will dramatically decrease like it has in Europe the past 50 years"

i mean, thats pretty flawed, as a lot of Muslim lands were "secular" if we're talking politics, but Islam has always been the core value of culture and system, no matter what in a lot of places
