3 Al hamdoulillah wa salaat wa Salaam 3ala Rasoulillah, Salaam Alaikom wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatahu, It's strange to see how Tawheed leads you to the Sunnah of the prophet Muhammad salla Allahu alayhi wa Salam. When you build up the pure Tawheed on al kufr bi thagout wal Imaan bi Allah (reject the thagout and believe in the unity of Allah) and you understand it practice it, automatically you'll end up in the life of the prophet Muhammad salla Allahu alayhi wa salam. We 'all' learned the biography (sierah) of the prophet salla Allahu alayhi wa Salam, so now we wonder our selves, how could you live in his footsteps for Allah's sake if you choose to follow the secular, liberal and democratic form of 'Islam'? Our beloved brother Abu Imran chose to make the Dawah (inviting to Islam) on Tawheed publicly, he said what we were thinking. There are many brothers who advised him not to speak so many about what he was thinking, some brothers even advised him to keep some things in Islam out of the picture. Not out of nifaaq of unbelief more for strategic reasons. Abu Imran always used to say: I Ask you for Allah's sake, if the prophet salla Allahu alayhi wa Salam would be living among us and he was asked about the situation of the Muslims, would the prophet salla Allahu alayhi wa Salam be answering to keep a 'low profile' or would he be speaking openly about the Quran and defend it?! Ask yourself that question and live by your answer...! The answer was clear to Abu Imran because he's still living by it wal Hamdoulillah. When he made that choice, a lot of friends became enemies, in this letter we want to show you a few situations he came across in his daily life, as well as his relatives.

4 There was this day Abu Imran went to pick up a brother at his house in Antwerp. When he arrived at that house and stopped at the door, the father of this brother was standing outside talking to a couple of African men. They came to buy his car. Abu Imran went to them en was greeting everyone and asked for his friend, when his friend came out; he asked to intervene in the car selling. Abu Imran is known for coming from a family of car dealers, he also speaks French fluently. He said that it's okay and sold the car to the customers, he made the selling documents en received the money for the car. After the selling he gave the money and deed of sale to the father of the brother. He was thanking him big time en asked about Abu Imran's background. He said he was just from a small city called Boom (in Antwerp) and said he descended from the Algerian Moroccan lands. Suddenly the father of his friend asked on a firm manner: Are you also part of that group of Abu Imran? (Not knowing he was talking to him). Abu Imran just smiled like he always does when he encounters this sort of things and said: Na'am ya hadj. The father replied: You should have a good word with that man, Abu Imran, send him the message. The father clearly didn't know who was standing in front of him and just heard some rumors. Abu Imran said: Incha a Allah, I shall pass it on. Both saluted each other, Abu Imran went out with his friend. When that brother came home at night he asked his father what he thought of Abu Imran, the man you met before, since he always criticizes and insulted him. His father was shocked and couldn't let a word out. A few days later he bumped to Abu Imran and asked him why he didn't reveal himself, after his harsh speaking about him. His (Abu Imran) answer was that it has no importance who he is, Ghayr incha a Allah. They hugged each other and ever since the father of his friend invites him every Friday for dinner. That man became one of the fathers defending him when someone speaks ill. During a street Dawah in Brussels, Abu Imran decided to visit a friend of his, who has a store there. When he entered his friends store he saw a new face behind the counter. Abu Imran asked about his friend but he was gone for a little while. So he asked the guy behind the counter if he could make a prayer in the store. All of the sudden the salesman answers him very rudely and excited: Why? Aren't we Muslims then? Is the owner the only one to ask and to permit you to pray here or what?! After the prayer Abu Imran decided to set the salesman straight for his rude behavior in the presence van all the brothers there.

5 Abu Imran told him: Akhi, have I done something to you? the salesman answered: No brother, forgive me, you made me think about this man who is causing a lot of fitnah in Holland, he's always on TV and you look like him. There was Abu Imran's smile again, he said: Akhi, I'm the one you re talking about, I'm from Antwerp not Holland! The salesman was shocked and blocked and said: Masha Allah brother, I love you for the sake of Allah; you did a real good lecture about the Moroccan government. Abu Imran told him that mistakes can happen and started talking to him about the Dawah and current things happening. You could call it a blessed turn out One day Abu Imran was invited at a brothers wedding. The family of that brother hated him through and through. The thing is, like most of the time, they heard things about him, but they don't know him witch always leads to 'inconvenient situations.' Abu Imran gave a small lecture at that wedding, they ate some. Almost the entire time the grandfather of the brother who got married kept Abu Imran in a conversation. There was this moment the brother asked Abu Imran if he could tell him who he was speaking to. I'd rather not said Abu Imran, so we won't ruin the mood. The prejudice in this family was huge. After the amusing Waleema (gathering for a feast) Abu Imran left and told the brother that he could tell his family about him after he was gone. When this family got the word that Abu Imran was this sympathetic, good mannered fellow. They were astonished about it. They immediately called him and asked for his forgiveness about their prejudge mental behavior.

6 After Abu Imran's arrest his mother was waiting for her turn in a post office, she heard two Muslims speaking to each other. One of them had a newspaper with Abu Imran shown on the front page. One was wearing a beard and the other didn't. Both where talking bad thing about Abu Imran and they found that the arrest is what he deserved. His mother goes towards these men and asked them if they knew this man on the paper. The man practicing (one with the beard) said that he didn't know him personally nut he heard a lot of things about him in the media. Abu Imran s mother said: This is my son and I am his mother! these men became pale and told her: May Allah give him victory. The proud mother said: No, May Allah give victory over the Munafiqien! She then walked away.

7 A brother who was very far from the Deen got arrested in the Syria file with Abu Imran. Never did they meet before so when this brother saw how much unjust there was from justice department against Muslims, The brother started changing himself. He hated Abu Imran from the deepest of his heart; he admitted this personally to Abu Imran during their jail time together. His brothers were already practicing Islam and followed lectures of Abu Imran. They were always criticizing the western life style of there brother, the main reason for him hating and rejecting Abu Imran. After two weeks of incarceration they met each other again in jail, only this time he started praying and was even reading the Quran. He made sincere repentance and told Abu Imran: Wallahi, I never hated someone more then you en now that I m wide awake; I love you incredibly much for the sake of Allah. Please forgive because I've insulted you, I cursed you and falsely accused you. Abu Imran showed his understanding en hugged him en said: I forgive you, may Allah forgive you. Short after it the brother died, Soebhanallah Rahimullah.

8 Abu Imran entered this mosque in Antwerp to make the Friday prayer, when he entered the lecture already started. To his big surprise, the khutba (Friday lecture) was about himself, so the Muslims around him kept looking at him, waiting for a reaction. Abu Imran kept quiet and acted as if his nose bleeds (a Dutch saying). The imam still didn't know the one who he was giving a lecture about in sitting in front of him. After the lecture and prayer, Abu Imran went to have a word with this imam. He asked him politely: Can I have a word with you ya shaykh? The expression on that man's face looked strong like that of the people who appear in the popular American TVshow called How to catch a predator! the shaykh said Come with me my son, let's go to the office and have a conversation about this. When they went to the office of the mosque, everyone leading this mosque followed. Made me think about what Obama always says: This is a matter of National Security. Abu Imran asked them if he ever made a mistake in Aqeedah or Manhaj, so the shaykh started advising him and Abu Imran rejected this. The old men who have responsibility of this mosque started attacking Abu Imran in words like: Who do you think you are to come to our imam and speak to him in this way, how dare you giving our imam a lecture? and so forth and so forth. The imam stood up and asked Abu Imran to follow him outside so everybody calms down. I Swear on the lord of the Ka'bah, they weren't even outside or the imam started saying: Look ya akhi, I know you are spreading the truth. Wallahi I know you are not one of khawaaridj and I know for sure you re not an extremist, but these munafiqeen gave me the order to have this lecture. Full of amazement Abu Imran answered: Ghayr incha a Allah and then he walked away. Compare all these incidents and much more, start thinking for yourself and ask Allah for guidance. For you know that who ever is being attacked by the masses, he must be speaking something that must be correct en Truth. May Allah show his mercy and forgiveness on all Muslims
