Nationalism is Dangerous

Since the French Revolution, Nationalism has grown into the most divisive tool of our time to create hatred, more so than religion, race, gender, or age.  In the Muslim world it has been expressively dangerous.  With the reckless drawing of borders by the French and British after WWI and then using their imperial prowess to build dividing cultural factors to create hatred between Muslims.  No longer did the European world want a powerful Islamic empire so they had to create hatred and mistrust amongst the Muslims by creating political movements, secular movements, feminist movements, etc.  

Now more than ever Muslims need a Calipha that will represent all Muslims, not just Shia or Sunni or Salafi or astaghfirlelah Qadiri, but all MUSLIMS.  We are MUSLIMS and not Americans, Egyptians, Yemenis, Bahraini, Indonesian, Pakestani, we are Muslims.  May Allah forgive all the self-righteous for their arrogance.

As our most beautiful Maulana, saaws, said, "He who has in his heart the weight of a mustard seed of pride and arrogance shall not enter Paradise."  Calling yourself anything, but humbly a Muslim can lead one to a feeling of boastfulness and pride.  

It is the responsibility of ALL Muslims to help to protect all other Muslims.

Rasul, saaws stated: "He who amongst you sees something abominable should modify it with the help of his hand; and if he has not strength enough to do that, then he should do it with his tongue; and if he has not strength enought to do even that, then he should at least abhor it from his heart; and that is the least of faith." Muslim

Our only nation is the nation of Allah swt.  Live justly with the shariah in your own actions and heart and treat all other Muslims with the dignity our Rasul, saaws has shown us.
