Reasons for the distance from the religion of the new generation / Why do they hate religious scholars?
The new generation of Pakistanis studying in higher educational institutions generally run away from scholars, for several reasons. The first reason is that they are unable to present the concept of Islam to the new generation on a scientific basis. Every age has a common sense and scholars have to present the message of Islam according to the requirements of the common sense of that age.
There is a clear guidance about this in the Holy Quran:
Translation:
(O Messenger of Allah!) Call to the path of your Lord with wisdom and good advice and debate with them (also) in a manner that is very beautiful, surely your Lord knows that person (also) well. He who goes astray from His path, and He knows well those who are guided.”
In the Ayat-e-Kareema, Allah, the Most High, has mentioned three conditions for the call to religion, and we lack all three of them here, except Masha Allah. Whatever is happening to the young generation here is not their fault but mostly the preachers of religion. Those three conditions are:
1. wisdom
2. advice
3. Debate softly
First of all, we lack wisdom. How these three requirements were required to introduce the requirements of Islam by keeping in view the academic, research, scientific, and experimental aspects is not being done justice. This is the age of science, in which everything is judged by the standards of criticism. In this period, a person immediately goes into denial, criticism, why and what, why and what. On the contrary, how Islam is being presented is only the way of fatwa, if the Qur'an and Hadith say it, it should be accepted just because of that. Today's youth asks why the Qur'an and Hadith said this. Now the Qur'an and the Hadith themselves do not tell why they have said this, the scholars have to give the answer. This answer cannot be given by scholars without scientific empirical verification, which spoils the whole matter.
We lack preaching wisdom here. The requirements that should be met for preaching are not being met. The mental retardation of the young generation can be eradicated, provided that Islam is propagated to meet the requirements of the present age. Islam should be presented rationally according to the scientific way of thinking. During preaching, such modern ideas and philosophies that shake faith should be compared to religion.
In other circles of Islam, one hears fatwas of disunity and disbelief. Young people think about which Islam should follow, they do not consider each other as Muslims. This is the lack of wisdom, due to which the young generation is suffering from corruption. The teachings of Islam are less visible in the role of those who give the invitation to Islam. They hear something else in the stage of teaching, and when they approach the teachers and observe their practical life carefully, the contradiction in their own practice has arisen among the preachers of religion, hardly in any other circle. I would have.
Thus, there is a contradiction in every class of society, but the contradiction of scholars is harming religion. The younger generation hates it. Then a particular symbol of the cleric is formed in their mind, which they make fun of. Maulvi is considered an example of ignorance and contradiction of words and deeds. Although Maulvi is a very big name, once upon a time it was the name of a pillar of knowledge. Unfortunately, the concept that has developed in this era has alienated the Maulvi from the common man, the main reason being that the scholars have stopped studying modern sciences and are studying the Madrasah system. They do not have modern sciences, so they are not qualified to discuss the requirements of this era. Apart from this, heart conditions are not changed by the power of knowledge, but heart conditions are changed by love.
Our religious circles are heating up the market for killings in the name of Islam. In universities and educational institutions, Muslims are being called atheists, infidels, infidels, and infidels in the name of religion. The cause of all this behavior is actually political motives. Due to the internal differences of political parties and organizations, the new generation is being harmed. Students who do not agree with their political power and their election program are further alienated by being called Ladin and atheists. The difference is only a point of view, instead, it is called a difference in religion. Ninety percent of university-level youths are not intellectuals, but scattered minds. Their thoughts are not clear, they get confused when they listen to modern philosophies. In such a situation, when the fatwa of disbelief is imposed on them, the reaction starts. This reaction starts with political factions and then it is given a religious color.
The young generation, which was already disgusted with the name of Islam, when they saw all the actions taking place in the name of Islam, they said that if these are the monopolists of Islam and if this is the character of Islam, then we should keep Islam away from us. Peace, Greeting. Thus, even if they were not Ladin, they were made Nahar Ladin.
Sectarianism is not the name of a sect, sectarianism is the name of an attitude and a thought. Sectarianism is a code of practice, a method, and a point of view that you do not consider anyone as a Muslim except yourself, that is sectarianism. Not to give the right to live on one's own, not to consider anyone other than oneself as eligible to work for Islam, to consider Islam as Islam only when it is in our hands and if the work of Islam is left in our hands by other hands. If I go away, that is not Islam, this is the approach of religious circles. This nihilism, violence, and narrow-mindedness have made Islam a scapegoat. These people are using religion for their own political interests. All these things are causing the modern generation and the highly educated class, even the uneducated people who see and feel the situation carefully, to move away from the religion, and the reasons for revolting from the religion are being created.
The responsibility of the new generation to be disgusted with religion lies more with the so-called monopolists and pioneers of religion. However, due to being wise and mature, those people themselves are also responsible for studying the religion on their own and trying to understand its message instead of turning away from the religion after seeing such scholars, but the main responsibility of the religion. There are propagandists. If we manage and adopt in our knowledge, wisdom character, and actions the attitude of the Jadaal-e-Hasan, which has been provided by the Holy Qur'an, then these young people will definitely manage.
