Hell is the destination of all suicide bombers, fearless cleric Sheik
Ahmad Mahmud Gumi warned today in a sermon in
New York.
He pointed out that while young men commit suicide, they ought to
reflect that those leaders who send them to their deaths do not commit
suicide or send their children to die in the same way.
Gumi who has been critical of the Boko Haram sect, said in the
sermon: “The prophet – Salawatullahi alaihi- is a mercy for mankind. He
said the way to Paradise is easy for those that follow his path. He
said: “everybody in my Ummah is going to enter the paradise except he
who refuses. They said (the companions): oh messenger of Allah, who will
refuse? He said: whoever obeys me enter the paradise and whoever
disobeys me he has indeed re...fused” Al-Bukhari.”
In an important sermon that has implications for violent Islamic
sects that use suicide bombing as a key tool, Gumi offered the message
that those that agree to use themselves as bombs do more than die in
vain.
“Despite this ease of entering Paradise, those that commit suicide
for whatever reason have guaranteed for themselves the Hell Fire
forever,” he said. He called on the faithful to be aware that nobody should deceive them
to take their own lives, saying that real Jihad is fought to either win
or get martyrdom.
“The shahada is gotten when killed by enemy action,” he said. “Allah
said: ‘Let those Fight In the cause of Allah who sell the life of This
world for the Hereafter to Him who fighteth In the cause of Allah,-
whether He is slain or gets victory - soon shall we give Him a reward of
great (value). ” Q4/74.May Allah continue to guide us all to the
straight path.”
Continuing, Sheik Gumi quoted Anas: “If not for my hearing the
prophet – alaihis Salam- saying: Do not wish for death I would wish for
it” Al-Bukhari. People are forbidden to wish for death talks less of
committing suicide. Islam is a practicable religion. We are required to
do what we can do and leave the rest to the Al-Mighty. “So fear Allah As
much As ye can; listen and obey and spend In charity for the benefit of
your own soul and those saved from the covetousness of their own
souls,- They are the ones that achieve prosperity.” Q64/16.
“Whoever therefore will be taken by fanaticism or sickness or
depression to kill himself, he has condemned himself to eternity in the
Hell fire, May Allah Save us from it. Muslim narrated from Abu Huraira
who said: the messenger of Allah said: “whoever will kill himself with
an iron, then he would be tormented with his iron in his hand injuring
his belly continuously in Hell Fire forever. And whoever will drink
poison and then kill himself, he will continue sipping the poison in the
Hell fire forever. And whoever fall from a rock then kills himself, He
will continue falling in the Hell fire forever”.
He stressed that whoever will explode himself with explosives for
whatever reason or disguise will also continue to be in his explosion in
hellfire forever, stressing that this is what the hadith teaches.
Suicides, he warned, are tormented by the same means they employ to kill
themselves.
“Today we see young men killing themselves with explosives in the
name of Jihad yet they never reflect that those ‘leaders’ that send them
to such adventure never commit suicide nor send their children to
commit it.”
