A BARRIER TO THE DEEN !!
Rasulullah (Sallallahu Alayhi Wasallam) said,
“Soon there will dawn an age over mankind when nothing of Islam will remain but its name; nothing of the Qur’aan will remain but its script. Their Musaajid will be lavish (beautifully adorned structures) while completely devoid of hidaayat (Deeni guidance). Their Ulama will be the worst (of creation) under the canopy of the heaven (and on the surface of the earth). Both (corruption) will emanate from them and rebound on them.”
(Baihqi in Shu’bul Imaan)
In this day and age we find the Ulama causing more damage to Islam than even the Kuffaar. Corrupt and Power hungry these scholars for dollars only propagate that which suites thier pockets and nafs.
It is an era in which there is a noxious glut of ulama-e-soo' termed , 'Al-Aimmatul Mudhilleen' by Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam). For these 'scholars' who mislead and deviate the masses, Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) expressed profound fear. In our day we are observing the materialization of Rasulullah's prediction in which he said: "The worst of the people under the canopy of the sky will be their ulama. From them (these vile, miserable scholars for dollars) will emerge Fitnah, and the Fitnah will rebound (boomerang) on them (hemming them into the mess and corruption they spawn and disgorge)."
It is not possible to entertain husn-e-zann (a good opinion/good thoughts) about these wolves in sheep's skin. It is not valid to cherish good thoughts about shayaateen in human bodies. These miscreants are described in the Qur'aan Majeed as "dogs" and "donkeys." The Qur'aan Majeed brands the ulama-e-soo' and the al-aimmatul mudhilleen as "dogs which puff and pant", and as "donkeys" which carry loads of kitaabs.
The molvies whom you have referred to are not Ulama of Islam. They are evil scholars for dollars. They are the 'aimmah' who mislead the Ummah.
The Ahaadith warn the Ummah against these marauders who pillage and plunder the Akhlaaq and the Imaan of the masses. The Hadith warns: Beware and see from whom you acquire your knowledge or your guidance. Instead of Knowledge, the Al-Aimmatul Mudhillen impart jahl (ignorance), and instead of guidance, they administer dhalaal (deviation) which casts the unwary Believer far, very far off the track – far from Siratul Mustaqeem.
They are Habaailush Shaitaan – Snares of Iblees, the Devil in Chief. Relative to the dajjaaliyat and shaitaaniyat of these Al-Aimmatul Mudhalleen, the fisq and fujoor of the masses appear like 'ibaadat'.
While it is extremely lamentable, it is not at all surprising. The Warning for the community is to be alert and to stay far from the poisonous fangs of the "Scholars for Dollars" who pave the path of Jahannam.
Rasulullah (sallallahu alayhi wasallam) said: "Verily, I fear for my Ummah the 'aimmah' (molvies, sheikhs, reverends, pundits, quack spiritual guides and scholars for dollars) who (will mislead my Ummah)."
