"The………….. (Country name) visit has again reminded me that Muslims are not concerned about actual issues.
Maslaki ikhtalafat (Fiqh Dispute e.g. placing hand in salat, Ameen loud or silent etc.) organizational and group affiliations has made them unaware from actual issues and dangers that ummah is facing. (He is mentioning actual issues and dangers later in the article) The Ulema are the real leader of ummat but their intellect is becoming outsourced on small issues of Fiqh. (Not all but a good number,All Muslims are responsible for this trend as we support and favour those ulema who talks about controversial issue, become popular very easily, No one cares about real and good Ulema who are soft spoken knowledgeable)
Their too much involvement in trivial issues has also damaged their credibility among general muslim and has increased the differences …….this situation is prevailing throughout the Muslim world……….In difference of opinion there is no point of stressing on a particular position…….But alas this has become an ego issue.…………..There are many work…urgent need of Islamic conditioning of youth future generation (to make muslims who are namesake as practicing muslim) removing misconceptions against Islam, Inviting fellow countrymen to the way of Allah........
