STATEMENT FROM ALHAJI OUSMAN M. JAH; THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE ISLAMIC CENTER OF HARMONIZATION OF SCHOOLS OF THOUGHT- THE GAMBIA

Dear Muslims,

Today, the most significant concern of  Islam, the religion of Allah Almighty and His noble messenger (S) and of course Muslims living in the world is accessing Islamic solutions and strategies to unify the ummah of Islam as well as defending it against harmful ideas and seditious thought emanating from pseudo-intellectuals’ thought and deceitful propaganda from the enemies of Islam.

In this way, the Islamic center for Harmonization of Schools of Thought (ICFH) was established and began its activities with an embracing manner of all schools of thought and sects in Islam with an objective of providing a conducive atmosphere for interaction, dialogue, tolerance and understanding among the different schools of thought and their adherents with a spiritual and intellectual needs and approach that will facilitate the capacity building of harmony, unity and understanding among Muslims.

This site, indeed, intends to grant such resources by means of communicational tools such as symposium, dialogue forum, conferences as well as intellectual and scientific research within the framework of the center’s goal and available valuable potentials.

It is therefore worth mentioning that ICFH is an independent non-profitable institution that wishes to go on its way through the spiritual supports of Muslims, Islamic scholars, Imams and Islamic researchers and intellectuals,  people of faith and knowledge in order to bring about a systematic change in the Islamic ummah.

All Muslims are witnesses that today the Muslim ummah of the Holy Prophet (S) is passing through a significant period of human history. A period, wherein Allah and His messenger (S) are looking for believers to rise up and fill the gap of struggle against infidelity,

 

 extremism, domination, exploitation and arrogance being the plagues that have hooked the Muslim ummah for decades in our contemporary world. 

Therefore,  ICFH is calling all Muslims to consider the words of Allah the Almighty when warning Muslims against disunity. He says: “And hold fast all of you together the rope of Allah and do not be disunited………” Qur’an 3: 103. 

If today, Muslims do not join hands together in unity and brotherhood and do neglect in extending help and defend one another, then the influences of the enemies will forever remain and the most devastating disease on hatred and disunity will continue to plague the Islamic ummah. 

It is of no doubt that Sunni and Shi’ah schools are well aware that the enemies have for so long investing a great deal to create friction and division among Muslims. They must know that in order to subdue the Islamic and national interests of Muslim, the enemies will leave no stone unturned. If all Muslims become aware and alert and unite, they can neutralize the propaganda operations and strategies of the enemies.

Muslims should know and be more aware that they can exalt Islam and their status if only they maintain unity and brotherhood more firm than ever before and eventually will be able to squeeze the exploiters and domineers out of the Muslims countries.

 

 Today, Islam is in dire need of Islamic unity and brotherhood as it was established by the Holy Prophet (S) in order to defend the integrity and honor of Islam and of the Muslims.

Verily, if those objectives and purpose of Islam are to be fully recognized, Shi’ite and Sunni Muslims would come to an acceptable unity based on related decrees and by such harmony Muslims all over the world will be masters of their own affairs.

On a final note, whether Sunni or Shi’ah, all Muslims should know that the Muslim ummah is undergoing a great range of difficulties, although the dimension of the difficulties is so wide and painful but is a proof and criterion for the last time to distinguish the line of pioneers and standard bearers of Islamic unity and the emancipation of the Muslim ummah’ dignity and the grandeur of Allah’ religion from those false claimants who say they are supporters of Islam. May Allah the Almighty grant the Islamic ummah of His noble Prophet (S) victory, unity and prosperity.
