It does not consider any value for outward obedience avoid of any love and internal respect and emotion. According to the holy Quran it is not enough that relations with prophets and obeying them be confined to a kind of relation being practiced between the party leader and the party members, the ruler and the subjects or the army chief and his soldiers. It also does not content with only paying tax and abiding by laws as it clearly says: &#8221; \u2026unless ] you people[ believe to God and his messenger and support his ]religion [ and believe to his greatness) (Surah Fath:9)<br \/>In fact, complete and sincere obedience, adoption of prophetic ethics and preferring Islamic Sharia over norms, customs and sensual desires, and sacrificing with life and property for Islamic Dawah is not possible without a deep- heartened real love that is dominant over rationality and emotion.<br \/>It was on the basis of this emotion and true love that the companions of the holy Prophet (PBUH) sacrificed their life; and leaving motherland and family members as well as martyrdom in the way of God became easy and charming for them.<br \/>It is to be explicitly cleared that no nation no matter how much it is powerful, intelligent and well equipped, can reach to prosperity and success unless it follows the path of the prophet (PBUH), love him and support his mission.<br \/>Any nation that wants to get success and prosperity through making political alliance with super powers without adopting the prophets\u2019 style of life, sooner or later will face\u00a0 defeat and internal disintegration.<br \/>The present situation of Islamic world in general and the Arab world in particular is the best proof in this regard. Arab countries following and obeying political leaders has more importance than obeying the holy Prophet. As result, inclination to materialism, nationalism, socialism and other new philosophies is the dominant trend over there though till now they have reached to no stage of success.<br \/>I explicitly say that the Arab world is politically fragmented and till now it\u00a0 has not even been able to solve the Palestine issue and reach to an appropriate conclusion regarding the leadership of Muslim world. It is not making any significant effort in this regard, so that,\u00a0 as days\u00a0 pass, new crisis\u00a0 and problems are appearing before them.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #888888;\"><strong>By: Sayed Abul Hassan Nadvi<\/strong><\/span><br \/><span style=\"color: #888888;\"><strong>Translated by : Mufti Qasem Bani Kamal (Qasmi)<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The holy Quran calls for obeying the prophets and adopting their way of living;
