Cooperation on Falsehood –
Once the Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon, was making a circumambulation of the House of Allah, the Exalted, the Kaaba. During his act of worship he was obstructed by some of the non-Muslim leaders of Mecca who claimed that it was best for everyone if they cooperated with each other by compromising on their beliefs. They would worship Allah, the Exalted, if the Holy Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, accepted to worship their idols. This way everyone would get along with no hostilities. After this, Allah, the Exalted, revealed chapter 109 Al Kafirun, verses 1-6:
“Say, “O disbelievers. I do not worship what you worship. Nor are you worshippers of what I worship. Nor will I be a worshipper of what you worship. Nor will you be worshippers of what I worship. For you is your religion, and for me is my religion.””
This incident is recorded in Imam Ibn Kathir’s, the Life of the Prophet, Volume 2, Pages 35-36.
Muslims are not expected to make huge sacrifices like those made by the Holy Prophets, peace be upon them, and the Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, but they should not compromise on their faith for the sake of people or to gain worldly things. It is important to understand that no matter what worldly success a person gains through compromising on their faith eventually this success will become a curse and great burden for them in both worlds. It is quite evident when one observes the media that those who compromised on their moral values and faith ended up sad and depressed irrespective of how much worldly success they obtained. So a Muslim should instead remain steadfast on the teachings of Islam and firmly believe, sooner or later, they will be blessed with worldly success beyond their expectations let alone the blessings which await them in the next world. Chapter 41 Fussilat, verse 30:
“Indeed, those who have said, “Our Lord is Allah” and then remained on a right course – the angels will descend upon them, [saying], “Do not fear and do not grieve but receive good tidings of Paradise, which you were promised.”
