One Ummah : This is Our Identity

 

There  are so many debates among Shi'a,Sunni,Ahmadiya,Salafi,Sufi,Barelvi, Deobandi etc. But the thing is, these religious divisions are just like the branches of a tree, name "Islam". So, which branch is strong and which branch is weak ,which branch is beautiful and which is less is only known to Almighty Allah ,who are you to judge? Choose the branch you like to adopt,give your opinion about the rest of the branches if necessary; but that does not mean you got the right to cut or hit all the branches which is not yours! Nor that  means that they do not belong to this tree! Moreover, if one branch gets burned,then rest of the branches will catch fire too if not the action is taken in time.

 We believe in one and only God , Allah . We are the followers/ummah of Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam).We are Muslim.This is our Identity.

Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) has said in his last sermon, "All mankind is from Adam and Hawa (Eve), an Arab has no superiority over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab has any superiority over an Arab; also a White has no superiority over a Black nor a Black has any superiority over a White except by piety and good action. Learn that every Muslim is a brother to every Muslim and that the Muslims constitute one brotherhood. Nothing shall be legitimate to a Muslim which belongs to a fellow Muslim unless it was given freely and willingly."

So, what stops us to unite,unite like a one soul? In addition, nowadays, we are seeing the arisen of a concept like " Land of Ancestors"  here and there. If so, then according to their logic, as descendants of adam and hawa(eve), all the lands belongs to none but one and only Allah,because adam and hawa(eve) worshiped one and only Allah. But we the Muslims already know, 

Al-Quran, 24:64 Unquestionably, to Allah belongs whatever is in the heavens and earth. Already He knows that upon which you [stand] and [knows] the Day when they will be returned to Him and He will inform them of what they have done. And Allah is Knowing of all things.( English - Sahih International)
