Prophet Muhammad (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) said,
“Whenever sexual permissiveness spreads among the people until it becomes declared, infections and killing diseases, as well as illnesses not previously found in their ancestors will spread among them”
(Narrated by Ibn Majah)
World Aids Day is observed today by the non muslims who dedicate this day for raising awareness about the deadly disease of Aids. Aids has killed more than 25 million people and more than 33.2 million people worldwide live with HIV, making AIDS one of the most destructive epidemics in the history of mankind. But just raising awareness about a certain thing is not the solution, but finding the root cause is. The Prophet (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) warned us about this and it is a clear sign for the whole world that if we move away from the teachings of Islaam than more deady plagues will occur.
In another Hadith which is reported by Malik, the Prophet (sallallaahu ’alayhi wa sallam) said, “Whenever adultery becomes a widespread phenomena among certain people, death will spread among them.” Islaam blocks all the roots that will lead to the problem of such deadly diseases. Allah says in the Qur’aan : “And come not near to Zina (fornication). Verily, it is a Fahisha (i.e. a great sin) and an evil way.”
(The Holy Qur’aan 17:32)
In the “so called modernization” we have left the teaching of Islaam but can we tihnk that we can get away with anyting, no we cannot! It will only invite the wrath of Allaah, “Verily, the punishment of your Lord is severe.” (The Noble Qur’aan 85:12)
Therefore let us learn from the pain and devastation of AIDS the lesson that the Hudood (limitations) set up by Allaah, the Almighty must be followed strictly.
Doesnt it hurt you that so many Non Muslims are dying daily because of Aids? Have you ever invited them to the Path of Allaah and shown them its benefits?
Please share this Hadith will everyone Non Muslim you can, Jazak’Allaah.
