Tawheed is the key

 Say: “Allah speaketh the Truth: follow the religion of Abraham, the sane in faith; he was not of the Pagans.” [3:95]
 

“Abraham was not a Jew nor yet a Christian; but he was true in Faith, and bowed his will to Allah’s (Which is Islam), and he joined not gods with Allah” [3:67]

Allah [swt] have ordered his prophet [saws] and his followers to follow the Millah of Ibraheem [as].  He was alone against his people but stil he stood up for haqq and he sacrificed everything for the sake of Allah. No matter what Allah [swt] asked of him he did, he was asked to slaughter his son and he obeyed but Allah saved him. How much did Allah test him with but he still followed the commands of Allah, would we do the same?

Think about it, salughtering your own son, leaving your beloved wife and son in the desert etc. But he remained firm and he succeded in the trials. we will be tested aswel, but will we remain firm and stick to the Deen of Allah or will we give up when it becomes tough?

So those who are tested and remain firm are the true followers of the Millah of Ibraheem [as].

“Who can be better in religion than one who submits his whole self to Allah, does good, and follows the way of Abraham the true in Faith? For Allah did take Abraham for a friend.” [4:125]

He understood tawheed and the rejection of every taghoot and he didnt hide that. He destroyed the false gods and called the people to worship Allah alone. and that is the example we are asked to follow in the Qur’an:

“There is for you an excellent example (to follow) in Abraham and those with him, when they said to their people: “We are clear of you and of whatever ye worship besides Allah: we have rejected you, and there has arisen, between us and you, enmity and hatred for ever,- unless ye believe in Allah and Him alone” [60:4]

Some people are afraid of calling kafirs by their name, or telling ahlul bid’ah that they are upon bid’ah etc, but subhan’Allah are we afraid of telling the truth as it is? thats not the sunnah of our beloved messenger or his companions. the prophet [saws] used to curse the gods of quraish and their fathers in front of them he didnt fear loosing followers. so those who claim that its darar for the da’wah, i ask them by Allah are they more guided than the prophet [saws]?

A Question we should ask ourselves, are we among the true followers of the millah of Ibraheem?
