We hope that those who abandon the Friday Sal?t -and indeed they are many- may be aware of this threat and get themselves out of the darkness in which they are diving deeply especially those who busy themselves with: watching football games, guarding those in authority, going on picnics instead, and the bridegroom.

[54] Thousands of football matches fans abandon Friday Sal?t:

The fans of football matches -the number of which may reach hundreds of thousands- crowd in the stadiums and when the ’Ath?n calls them for Sal?t, they respond not to it due to the paralysis in their minds and the blunting of their emotions, for what?! only for being hideously fanatic to this or that team. Even the members of the same family, each cheers a team different from the other. The matter even gets worse when the supporters of the winning team make fun of the loosing one then severe fights follow immediately, the consequences of which are hundreds of casualties and deaths. The whole thing was plotted in order to busy the Islamic ’Ummah with trivials instead of being occupied with its great mission; namely fighting its enemies and solving its serious issues.

Accordingly, the ’Ummah looses its sense of pride and honour due to wasting alot of money and precious time on trivialities. Had these two factors been utilized properly, the Islamic ’Ummah would have been ahead of the developed nations in various domains.

Consequently, great values have been altered, the “hero” these days is the one who plays football professionally and hence makes a fortune (!!) not the one who sincerely defend the ’Ummah’s pride and honour. Indeed, Isl?m does not agree on such unbalanced false values; in Isl?m every human being receives what he deserves with no excessiveness nor negligence.

To conclude, football now has become one of the destructive hoes which our enemies are using in order to destroy the Islamic ’Ummah encouraging other nations to do the same.
