Don’t be careless about your loved ones!
Take the time to remind your loved ones about tawhid, even if they study it. And if they don’t study it, then teach them yourself!
To remind you that you can swear only by Allah, and that vows and sacrifices are made only to Allah – it will be better for you! Do not forget to talk about the polytheism of those who believe in omens, horoscopes, predictions and the punishment for this.
Remember Luqman’s admonition to his son: “O my son! Do not associate partners with Allah, for polytheism is a great injustice.” (13:31)
Or Ibrahim’s call to his father:
“So he said to his father: “My father! Why do you worship something that does not hear or see and will not bring you any deliverance? My father! Knowledge was revealed to me that was not revealed to you. Follow me and I will lead you on the right path. My father! Do not worship Satan, for Satan disobeyed the Merciful. My father! I am afraid that you will be punished by the Merciful, and that you will become an assistant of Satan”
(Maryam, 42-46)
Ask your family and friends: “What does the testimony of “la ilaha illa Allah” mean? They will answer you: “This means that there is no one like Allah in creation, control.” The position of the one who says this is terrible, since the polytheists of the first times were of the same belief, not to mention the polytheists of our time.
◟Imam al-Shaukani said:
“The reason for the delusion of these common people is that living among their parents and relatives, seeing them with these beliefs, they adopted these beliefs from them.
People adopt these beliefs from the previous generation – the last from the first… the silence of those who knew the essence of the issue, those who have knowledge, their inaction and refusal to explain this to people, becomes the reason that these people remain in these views.”
See Adab ut-talab” p.16.
Do not be indifferent to yourself and your loved ones, you will not lose anything if you call them to tawhid. Perhaps, by the will of Allah, this will be the reason that Allah will strengthen you in your religion and enter you into Paradise!
