DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaumul Ahad, 23rd day of Muharram (Sunday 22nd September, 2019).
TRIBAL MARKS IN ISLAM. BismilLahir Rahmaanir Raheem.
Tribalism and Nationalism is forbidden in Islam says the Prophet sallalLaahu Alaihi Wasallam so to mark your face to describe your tribe is an insult to what the prophet warned about as it creates division and we are witnessing it today where one tribe will not even offer or accept their daughter or son to marry another tribe AstaghfirulLah.
Tribalism is a concept alien to Islam because tribalism calls for unity based on family, whereas Islam binds people together on the `Aqeedah, that is belief in ALLAH (swt) and HIS Messenger (sallalLaahu Alaihi Wasallam). Islam calls for the ideological bond. Grouping the Muslims on tribalistic lines is clearly forbidden.
It is narrated by Imam Abu Da'wud that the Messenger of ALLAH (sallalLaahu Alaihi Wasallam) said, "He is not one of us who calls for `Asabiyyah, (nationalism/tribalism) or who fights for `Asabiyyah or who dies for `Asabiyyah." And in another Hadith, the Messenger of ALLAH referring to tribalism, nationalism, racism, and patriotism said:"Leave it, it is rotten." [Muslim and Bukhari].
All people are the children of Aadam, and Aadam was created out of dust." "O you who believe! Fear ALLAH as HE should be feared and die not except in a state of Islam with complete submission to ALLAH. And hold fast, all of you together, to the rope of ALLAH (i.e. Qur'an), and be not divided among yourselves; and remember with gratitude ALLAH'S favors on you; for you were enemies and HE joined your hearts in love, so that by HIS Grace you became brothers; and you were on the brink of the pit of fire, and HE saved you from it. Thus ALLAH make HIS signs clear to you that you may be guided." [Surah Al'Imran (3); ayah 102-103].
All Muslims, whether they are of Hausa, Dagomba, Kotokoli, white, Arab Whatever, are one Ummah and they cannot be separated from each other. No tribalistic ties should ever break their unity. Furthermore, ALLAH (swt), says, "The Faithful are but brothers..." [Surah Al-Hujurat (49): ayah 10]. We must marry each other base on religious affiliation not tribal as many parents do today. May ALLAH protect us from any satanic influences and unite us together as Muslims. Aameen.
