Islamic Revolution, Prophets and the Meaning of Success

I will say again, who promised you an Islamic revolution?

Who made that promise? Allah made it. His Messenger made it.

Maulana Maududi made it. No, he did not.

No one made a promise. “And upon us is only clear conveyance.”

It is obligatory upon you. You will be questioned about this.

If the revolution does not come, what will you do?

Have we failed? No, we have not. Maulana Maududi himself, in his writings, wrote that there were many prophets such that because of whom worldly governments were not established.

Rather, for most of them, they were not.

There are a few whose rule, in worldly terms, you could say, was established over countries or over nations.

There were many prophets who were killed, crucified, and sawn apart. There were many prophets whose communities consisted of very few people.

So what does this prove, that they failed? No. The real thing is this.

That you spend your entire life living by the truth, and that you when death comes, remain steadfast in the truth.
