Ignoble Laureate and the Armageddon

In 1964, when Jean Paul-Sartre refused to accept the noble prize for literature his rejection letter which has now been published said a spectacular line about the ethics of an author. He wrote to the Swedish Academy, “The writer must, therefore, refuse to let himself be transformed into an institution, even if this occurs under the most honorable circumstances, as in the present case.”

Previously he had refused the award as well as the money associated with the most prestigious of the french awards, legion d’honneur in 1945. While there are no prizes more controversial and politicized than noble each year its frivolity becomes more apparent.

From totally undeserved prizes like the one given within six months of Barack Obama’s election to the office without having done anything to obvious Swedish bias against Russian intellectuals it has become a manipulation tool for imperialist governments.

With all the blood in its name, probably the one history will never forget is Aung San Suu Kyi. Like all privileged pillaging elites of a cosmopolitan society, she studied from top institutions in India and then went on to Oxford. Upon her returned she quickly becomes involved in politics and rose to a conspicuous position through a tough stance against military might in her country. Without her clout in the western world she gained a position of strength gradually and in 2015 won a landslide victory in elections to become the unprecedented leader of Myanmar.

Buddhist warmongering against the Rohingya Muslim minority in the country recently took off with Aung San’s complete support and has turned into a genocide. As Times reported these are the messages Muslims receive “F — g kalar,” a slur that Burmese ultra-nationalists like to apply to Muslims or others of South Asian appearance. “Why don’t you stop your work?”

2012 massacre of Rohingya Muslims living in the western part of the country under the pretext of spying for Bangladesh forced many to live in miserable camps. Recently intoxicated by the promises of far-right leader Narender Modi of India, Bangladesh’s prime minister Haseena Wajid, the notorious daughter of Sheikh Mujib has refused to accept the refugees. UN could not be expected to behave differently as US mouthpiece on foreign policy and Ban Ki Moon refused to call this genocide a genocide.

Muslim genocide around the world isn’t coalescing at a slower speed either. Far right governments in Europe, US, India and elsewhere have started whetting out Muslims. None of this should come as a surprise, though. Have we not been told by Prophet SA that end of times will dawn soon upon his Ummah and its clear signs can still be found in the books of Hadith. Some of them go like this:

“There will come to the people years of treachery (deceptions), when the liar will be regarded as honest, and the honest man will be regarded as a liar; the traitor will be regarded as faithful, and the faithful man will be regarded as a traitor; and the Ruwaibidhah will decide matters.” It was said ‘Who are the Ruwaibidhah?’ The Prophet replied: “Shallow and worthless men who will speak about the affairs of the people.” (Narrated by Ibnu Majah) Allah’s Messenger (saas) said: “The Harj (will increase).” They asked, “What is the Harj?” He replied, “(It is) killing (murdering), (it is) murdering (killing).” (Bukhari) Great cities will be ruined and it will be as if they had not existed the day before. (Al-Muttaqi al-Hindi, Al-Burhan fi Alamat al-Mahdi Akhir al-Zaman) The poor will grow in number. (Amal Al-Din Al-Qazwini, Mufid Al-’ulum Wa-mubid Al-humum) Gains will be shared out only among the rich, with no benefit to the poor. (Tirmidhi) The Last Hour will not be established until they (wicked people) commit adultery on the roads (public ways). (Ibn Hibban and Bazzar) People will indulge in homosexuality and lesbianism (Al-Muttaqi Al-Hindi, Muntakhab Kanzul Ummaal) Near the establishment of the Hour there will be days during which (religious) knowledge will be taken away (vanish) and general ignorance will spread… (Bukhari) A time will come when a man will not care about how he gets things, whether lawful or unlawful. (Bukhari) Allah’s Messenger (saas) said, “In the End Times men will come forth who will fraudulently use religion for worldly ends and wear sheepskins in public to display meekness. Their tongues will be sweeter than sugar, but their hearts will be the hearts of wolves.” (Tirmidhi) When the old have no compassion for the young, when the young show no respect to the old … when children grow angry … Judgment is at hand. (Reported by Omar (r.a.)

The end of time has gotten near and the promised battle of Ghazwa Hind, which western world calls the Armageddon is looming upon us. All religions are convinced of this final battle which isn’t hard to predict even for the ones who don’t believe in monotheist religions. I wish there was a better way for the mankind to have solved its problems but Allah’s decrees are meant to happen and happen it will.

In Hadith it is narrated by Abu Hurraira RA that Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H.) told him: “Definitely, one of your troop would do a war with Hindustan, Allah would grant success to those warriors, as far as they would bring their kings by dragging them in chains / fetters. And Allah would forgive those warriors (by the Blessing of this great war). And when those Muslims would return, they would find Hazrat Isa Ibn-e-Maryam(A.S.) in Syria (Shaam)”.

Let us all give our last and hope that Allah accepts us among the righteous ones who fought in his way to end the oppression, tyranny, and rampage.
