BEWARE OF 'DON'T JUDGE' SYNDROME

By

Ibn Abdillah As-sudaisiy Al-Iloori

The "don't judge" syndrome is real and it is growing very high in the Muslim community. Be careful, so that you don't get infected. Allah سبحانه وتعالى revealed the Qur'an and Sunnah for us to judge ourselves. We must keep judging and examining ourselves before the final judgement in the hereafter. This would assist us to change for the better before it is too late. Today, If you say shaitan will dwell forever in hell based on clear verses and hadiths, you will still see Muslims who would say: "don't judge him". This is a consequence of neglecting knowledge and speaking with ignorance.

Allaah says:

(وَمَنْ لَمْ يَحْكُمْ بِمَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ فَأُولَٰئِكَ هُمُ الظَّالِمُونَ)

"....And whoever does not judge by what Allah has revealed (Qur'an and Sunnah)- then it is those who are the wrongdoers" [Surat Al-Ma'idah 45]

May Allaah guide us aright
