Second Series –The Concept of Worship
The Original Interpretation of the concept of worship is that worship is the following in its all-encompassing forms. Meaning that those who follow Allah’s commands and prohibitions in their entirety, confirming their validity in their own right without other commands or prohibitions from a king, ruler or president, have thereby worshiped Allah. And he who has obeyed a ruler, whether it is a king or a president (such as obeyed any of their economic, social or judicial rulings, that have not come from Allah swt, as is the case now in all of the Muslim countries), or obeyed the rulings of America, Europe or the United Nations and its decisions, such as the acceptance of the nationalities that have been imposed upon Muslims, or accepting the dividing of the Muslim countries, or accepting to enroll in working with the countries they established and imposed upon the Muslims; has therefore (either by doing or confirming verbally or by heart) directed his worship i.e. his following, to other than Allah swt, even if he prayed and fasted.
The Interpretation of the concept of worship in its origin, can absolutely not be taught in schools, even if there are sentences agreeing with the real meaning of worship, these are either taught without meaning, whereby memorized empty of meaning, and if taught in its correct form, looses its importance and value by the student, because it lacks a realistic ground to apply it on in the first place. And if the teacher or someone was to explain the application of worship i.e. the following in real life, he would thereby slander Allah and his Messenger, explaining to the students, that our country is the country that applies Allah’s rules (Sharia), and that the so called ruler is the Guardian as per the Sharia who should be obeyed and followed, even if he ruled as per Kufr, and thereby you would be directing your worship to other than Allah, in this case to the so called ruler.
In the entire Muslim countries, all schools at all levels, whether elementary or advanced, do not teach this origin of origins at all in its correct form, and its an origin of extreme importance in identifying a Muslim’s identity from others. And the reason that it is not taught, is that if worship was taught as per its correct meaning, people would have realized where to direct their worship, i.e. their following, toward, and would therefore have realized that their duty is to disbelief in the current rulers, violate and not follow them, and would therefore have seen it to be their duty to turn against them.
Therefore we find teachers confining the meaning of worship merely towards one thing, which is the prayer, the fasting, the reciting and the good manners, sadaqa (charity) and the refraining from the worshiping of statues, and similar rulings, and this of course contradicts with the meaning or concept of worship in origin and branches. So the Muslim or student is left assuming that he has embraced the characteristics of a true Muslim, and that therefore he is worshiping Allah truly; and the parents are left assuming that they have raised their children well and to the best; and the ignorant teacher is left assuming that he has been teaching his students the method of worshiping at its best, not knowing that he is deceiving them and driving them towards greater deception; so they all end up worshiping other than Allah while assuming they are worshiping him swt, Hasbun Allah wani'am al-wakil "Allah suffices us and He is the best guardian."
Allah swt said in the meaning of surrat Al Baqarah verse 177
It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces towards East or West; but it is righteousness- to believe in Allah and the Last Day, and the Angels, and the Book, and the Messengers; to spend of your substance, out of love for Him, for your kin, for orphans, for the needy, for the wayfarer, for those who ask, and for the ransom of slaves; to be steadfast in prayer, and practice regular charity; to fulfill the contracts which ye have made; and to be firm and patient, in pain (or suffering) and adversity, and throughout all periods of panic. Such are the people of truth, the God-fearing
