[b]WARNING! WARNING!! WARNING!!!

Rise up against the protest proposed for the 5th of February, 2017.

Gathered by Faarooq Bn Ismaa'eel Al-egbaawi

Protest is an act that Islaam greatly frowns at.

It is established from the Messenger of Allaah (Blessings and Peace be upon him) that he said:

** If anyone of you detest anything from his leader, then let him be patient **

In another narration, the Messenger of Allaah (Blessings and Peace be upon him) said:

** A time will come upon my ummah wherein their leaders will be stone hearted as they will deprive them of their rights, bring harm upon then and suffer them; it was asked: oh Messenger of Allaah! What do advise that we do at this intense period? He said: Listen the Leader in Obedience and ask ALlaah for your own rights **

It was reported that the noble Scholar AbduLlaah Bn Mubaarak (May Allaah have mercy upon him) said:

** If you find anyone cursing the leader, then know that he is indeed a person of innovation and falsehood **

It was also reported that he said:

** If I have just one supplication which I know will definitely be answered by Allaah, then I will make it for the leader of the people; they asked: Why the leader? He said: If the supplication is made for myself, then that will benefit only me (and my household) but if the supplication is made for the leader for his correctness; then if he is upright, the entire people will benefit and be upright **

The noble Scholar Shaykh Soolih Al-Fawzaan (May Allaah keep him safe) said:

** Protest is alien to Islaam. It is usually something that brings forth evil and bloodshed. It is known to bring more harm than good. The Muslims should rather employ the admonition given them by the Messenger of Allaah, wherein the guidance and safety of the ummah lies **

I say:

Ask yourself! You who desire to protest! When last did you supplicate for the correctness of the leader of this nation?

Oh! You think your curses will bring a better Nigeria?

Who knows If your curses upon NEPA back then is the major cause of instability of power supply in the country up till now??

Come closer! Leadership is indeed a great task that often overwhelms the veins and muscles of men.

Moreover, how just are you in your own home to start with?

Leadership starts from the family! Are your families safe from your own evil and wickedness?

Have you tried to correct the affairs of your family? How just are you in your home dealings?

Listen to me! Who knows If the next leader of this country will come from your household? So, instead of you focusing on training and upbringing your household, you are busy spreading the article of protest!

A leader of course comes from within us! So, have Nigerians changed to have a better nation

Have you easily forgotten what protest has brought upon the great country Nigeria?

How many death tolls have been recorded in the past?

How many innocent youths and children do fall into the tribulation of a protest when it begins?

How many businesses will be put on hold as a result of the tribulations that do arise from protests?

Shops, Schools, Companies, Institutions will be closed up do the evil that might end up evolving from protest

Have you forgotten what the area boys do by taking advantage of protest to rob people and cause more havoc??

Tell me the protest made in Nigeria that doesn't give birth to unrest, death and loss of property!!!

See! Wrong can never be used to correct wrong?

Don't you believe in the divine effect of prayers

Then supplicate for the country and stop being pessimistic.

The Messenger of Allaah (Blessings and Peace be upon him) was reported to have authentically said:

** Allaah loves the strong believer than the weak one; So, be dutiful towards what will be benefit and never be pessimistic! But If what you never planned for happened, then say: QodaroLlaahu wa maa shaaha fa'ala (Allaah predestines and what He desires is what He does); for indeed If you say: If I had known, I would have done such and such; then you would have opened the door for shaytoon (to mislead you) **

Oh Allaah make Nigeria a comfort and righteous nation for all her citizens, this is indeed easy for you oh Lord of Mankind.
