Opposition to ITV

ISSUED BY A MUSLIM BROTHER TO JUSA- THE REAL ONE
“ASSALAAMUALAYKUM,
In any profession those who are not competent are not allowed to practice and even have their certificates confiscated if they bring disrepute to that particular profession.
For example, in Dunya, if a doctor or a lawyer is guilty of malpractice, his licence is revoked and his certificate withdrawn by the university and the general public is made aware of and warned through public notices and even the media about not taking treatment etc. from the fraudster.
Similarly and even more so should these precautions be taken with matters of Deen. Any student who qualifies from a Daarul Uloom has the responsibility of propagating and preaching ALLAH TA' AALA'S Deen in its pristine form. If a student commits malpractice by propagating and teaching laymen what is against the Shariah, he is committing a great disservice to his profession and therefore his Aalim certificate should be publically withdrawn and his licences to propagate and teach Deen should be openly withdrawn.
Hereunder please find serious sins and wrongs which some Ulema commit on a personal as well as public level which warrants that they be barred from the position of being Aalims. By committing these evils they bring disrepute to their honourable profession: (These are a few which ALAAH TA'AALAH brings to mind at this moment. There could be more.)
1. Appearing on television.
2. Promoting television openly.
3. Publically encouraging and defending what is clearly Haraam.
4. Committing and encouraging zina by intermingling openly with na¬mahram women
5. Taking and appearing in photographs openly for example in newspapers etc.
6. Encouraging women to display themselves at rallies and marches and laughing, joking and chatting with them freely on radio devil.
7. Violating the Shariah by openly attending Haraam functions eg. Wine and dine functions
8. Openly encouraging people to eat what is Haraam and doubtful.”
