30 Why do you not speak against
atrocities committed against Muslims?

T he Prophet is enjoined thus in the Quran:
Arise and give warning…shun uncleanness.
(Quran 74:2-5)

Here ‘uncleanness’ means negative thought arising from
others’ negative behaviour towards the Prophet. This
injunction therefore implies that even the Prophet was
required to only perform the duty of conveying the
message of Islam and was enjoined by God to ignore
atrocity and unpleasantness from others. God had
directed him to focus solely on his work.

31 How do we bring back our enthusiasm

his is not a problem; fluctuation is part of human
Tnature and will always be there. The feeling that my
enthusiasm has fallen low re-energizes the mind and
motivates one to carry on work with renewed vigour.
