Khalid came and he was upset while saying: “All of what we are in today (ie; the state we are today) of lowliness and humiliation is because of these oppressive, corrupted rulers who have destroyed Islam.” Muhammad said to him: “I did not see you today for the fajr prayer. So why weren’t you present for it? Did the rulers prevent you from performing it?” He said: ‘No’ Muhammad said: “and why do I see you shaving your beard while you know that it is a sunnah of your Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم? Did the rulers force you to shave it?” He said: ‘No’ Muhammad said: “And the western clothing I see you wearing, did the rulers order you to wear it?” He said: ‘No’ Muhammad said: “And this sign of the cross in which I see hanging across your chest and on your shirt, are the rulers the one who made you wear it?” He said: ‘No’ Muhammad said: “Your garment exceeding pass your ankles which is disobedience to your Lord, did the rulers order you with this?” He said: ‘No’ Muhammad said: “And that box of cigarettes which you are holding in your hands and trying to hide from me, did the rulers buy them for you?” He said: ‘No’ And then suddenly Khalid’s phone began to rang with the tone of music so Muhammad then said to him: “This music tone on your phone, did the rulers put it (on your phone) for you?” He said: ‘No’ Muhammad said: “And before all of this do you know the categories of tawheed with which you worship your Lord with?” He said: ‘No’ Muhammad said: “Did the ruler prevent you from learning your belief?” He said: ‘No’ Muhammad said: “This is what is apparent and what is hidden is greater, but I hope by this you have come to know that you ARE THE REASON for the debasement/lowliness of your ummah. Khalid say: “yes you have spoken the truth.” Then he stayed for a little then he said: “But the rulers ?!!” Muhammad said: “Contemplate the statement of Allah the Most High: “thus we make some wrong doers companions of others for what they earned (what theu used to do)” (6:129) So Khalid said: ‘Yes! But what is the solution?!’ Muhammad said: “Allaah سبحانه informed us in His statement: “Indeed Allah does not change the condition of people until they change what is within themselves” (13:11) And Allah did not say until they change their rulers” End of conversation
