Hijra from the Individual to the Community and from the Community to the State

Turkish original: Fert’ten Cemâât’e, Cemâât’ten Devlet’e Hicret

This work was written by our Ustad in four chapters in early 1990. The first chapter of the work was also published in the July 1990 issue of Davet Magazine.

The realization of the Islamic Revolution, which takes as its basis the establishment of Allah’s order on earth and the destruction of all human and taghuti systems and ideologies that are its opposite, and which constitutes the common cause of all the prophets, is possible only through the event of hijra. For the process of passing over, being transformed, changing and moving — from falsehoods to the truth, from wrongs to the right, from darknesses to light, from oppressions to justice, from crookedness to uprightness, from multiplicity to unity, from shirk to tawhid, from disbelief to acknowledgment and affirmation, from misguidance to guidance, from rebellion to obedience, from transgression to worship, from wretchedness to felicity, from savagery to familiarity and affinity, from downfall to exaltation, from decline to progress, from disintegration to salvation, from perishing and cessation to permanence, from calamity to peace and tranquility, from denial to faith, from Dar al-Harb to Dar al-Aman and to Islam, from death to life, from sickness and ailment to health and well-being — in other words, all of these transitions and becomings that take place during the realization of the Islamic Revolution, is called “Hijra”.
