Judaism, Promised Land, Zionist Israel

The Jews claim the right to have the Holy Land of Al-Quds as their homeland on the basis of holy rights granted by God being the chosen people. The Zionist Israel claim is half truth only and they hide their real motives. The Muslims and even some Conservative Jews don't accept the divine right of Zionist on the Holy Lands of Palestine.

(In the name of Allah, the most Beneficent, the most Merciful)

Judaism, Promised Land, Zionist IsraelThe Abrahamic religions have a great significance in the world today. Hazrat Abraham (AS) is said to be the founder of monotheism in Arabian Lands today who preached the oneness of God some 4000 years ago. Abrahamic religions are usually considered to be Judaism, Christianity and Islam. He had two sons; Hazrat Ismael (AS) and Hazrat Jacob (AS). His grandchild Hazrat Jacob (AS) also called “Israel-meaning slave of God (ALLAH)” fathered 12 sons including the famous Hazrat Joseph (AS).


As per Quran, the prophet’s family settled in Egypt in an exalted position. However, the Pharaoh tribe removed the king and the family of Israel was taken as slaves. The God appointed Hazrat Musa / Moses (AS) as prophet some 450 years later and by that time the 12 sons converted into 12 tribes of Jews. The Quran accounts for the struggle of Hazrat Musa for the liberation of Jews from Pharaoh. After a long period of preaching, finally, the Jews tribes were freed with the help of miracles. However, the tale of Jews becoming a religion gets interesting after liberation.


The Quran says that ALLAH bestowed special honours upon the Children of Israel; so what was the honour?



يَـٰبَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱذْكُرُوا۟ نِعْمَتِىَ ٱلَّتِىٓ أَنْعَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَأَنِّى فَضَّلْتُكُمْ عَلَى ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ ١٢٢


O Children of Israel! Remember My favours upon you and how I honoured you above the others in the world. (Al Baqarah)




ثُمَّ ءَاتَيْنَا مُوسَى ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ تَمَامًا عَلَى ٱلَّذِىٓ أَحْسَنَ وَتَفْصِيلًۭا لِّكُلِّ شَىْءٍۢ وَهُدًۭى وَرَحْمَةًۭ لَّعَلَّهُم بِلِقَآءِ رَبِّهِمْ يُؤْمِنُونَ ١٥٤



وَهَـٰذَا كِتَـٰبٌ أَنزَلْنَـٰهُ مُبَارَكٌۭ فَٱتَّبِعُوهُ وَٱتَّقُوا۟ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُرْحَمُونَ ١٥٥


Additionally, We gave Moses the Scripture, completing the favour upon those who do good, detailing everything, and as a guide and a mercy, so perhaps they would be certain of the meeting with their Lord.


This is a blessed Book We have revealed. So follow it and be mindful ˹of Allah˺, so you may be shown mercy. (Al An’ aam). {The Holy Book “Torah”.}



But the Jews had always been very rebellious as the following verse indicates:-


وَ اِذۡ اَخَذۡنَا مِیۡثَاقَکُمۡ وَ رَفَعۡنَا فَوۡقَکُمُ الطُّوۡرَ ؕ خُذُوۡا مَاۤ اٰتَیۡنٰکُمۡ بِقُوَّۃٍ وَّ اسۡمَعُوۡا ؕ قَالُوۡا سَمِعۡنَا وَ عَصَیۡنَا ٭ وَ اُشۡرِبُوۡا فِیۡ قُلُوۡبِہِمُ الۡعِجۡلَ بِکُفۡرِہِمۡ ؕ قُلۡ بِئۡسَمَا یَاۡمُرُکُمۡ بِہٖۤ اِیۡمَانُکُمۡ اِنۡ کُنۡتُمۡ مُّؤۡمِنِیۡنَ ﴿۹۳﴾



And [recall] when We took your covenant and raised over you the mount “Toor”, [saying], "Take what We have given you with determination and listen." They said [instead], "We hear and disobey." And their hearts absorbed [the worship of] the calf because of their disbelief. Say, "How wretched is that which your faith enjoins upon you, if you should be believers."


YES, ALLAH swt bestowed special honour upon the Children of Israel; but with certain conditions. They were made the leaders of humans so that they do good to others. They were given Holy Scripture and were given status because of the book so that they follow the guide lines and earn award of meeting with ALLAH, The Lord Almighty. However, the Jews went astray from the very beginning because they had love of calf in their heart.


The Story of Promised Land


The Quran accounts for the Promised Land and gives details of that promise as shown in the following:-


وَ اِذۡ قَالَ مُوۡسٰی لِقَوۡمِہٖ یٰقَوۡمِ اذۡکُرُوۡا نِعۡمَۃَ اللّٰہِ عَلَیۡکُمۡ اِذۡ جَعَلَ فِیۡکُمۡ اَنۡۢبِیَآءَ وَ جَعَلَکُمۡ مُّلُوۡکًا ٭ۖ وَّ اٰتٰىکُمۡ مَّا لَمۡ یُؤۡتِ اَحَدًا مِّنَ الۡعٰلَمِیۡنَ ﴿۲۰﴾




ی

ٰقَوۡمِ ادۡخُلُوا الۡاَرۡضَ الۡمُقَدَّسَۃَ الَّتِیۡ کَتَبَ اللّٰہُ لَکُمۡ وَ لَا تَرۡتَدُّوۡا عَلٰۤی اَدۡبَارِکُمۡ فَتَنۡقَلِبُوۡا خٰسِرِیۡنَ ﴿۲۱﴾


قَالُوۡا یٰمُوۡسٰۤی اِنَّ فِیۡہَا قَوۡمًا جَبَّارِیۡنَ ٭ۖ وَ اِنَّا لَنۡ نَّدۡخُلَہَا حَتّٰی یَخۡرُجُوۡا مِنۡہَا ۚ فَاِنۡ یَّخۡرُجُوۡا مِنۡہَا فَاِنَّا دٰخِلُوۡنَ ﴿۲۲﴾قَالُوۡا یٰمُوۡسٰۤی اِنَّا لَنۡ نَّدۡخُلَہَاۤ اَبَدًا مَّا دَامُوۡا فِیۡہَا فَاذۡہَبۡ اَنۡتَ وَ رَبُّکَ فَقَاتِلَاۤ اِنَّا ہٰہُنَا قٰعِدُوۡنَ ﴿۲۴﴾


And [mention, O Muhammad], when Moses said to his people, "O my people, remember the favor of Allah upon you when He appointed among you prophets and made you possessors and gave you that which He had not given anyone among the worlds.O my people, enter the Holy Land which Allah has assigned to you and do not turn back [from fighting in Allah 's cause] and [thus] become losers."They said, "O Moses, indeed within it is a people of tyrannical strength, and indeed, we will never enter it until they leave it; but if they leave it, then we will enter."They said, "O Moses, indeed we will not enter it, ever, as long as they are within it; so go, you and your Lord, and fight. Indeed, we are remaining right here." (Al Maeeda).



Quran, then reflects an eye opening situation that probably was the first democratic decision taken by the Children of Israel; they denounced the order from GOD enblock as per above verse and Prophet Moses (AS) expressed his helplessness as shown below:-


قَالَ رَبِّ اِنِّیۡ لَاۤ اَمۡلِکُ اِلَّا نَفۡسِیۡ وَ اَخِیۡ فَافۡرُقۡ بَیۡنَنَا وَ بَیۡنَ الۡقَوۡمِ الۡفٰسِقِیۡنَ ﴿۲۵﴾قَالَ فَاِنَّہَا مُحَرَّمَۃٌ عَلَیۡہِمۡ اَرۡبَعِیۡنَ سَنَۃً ۚ یَتِیۡہُوۡنَ فِی الۡاَرۡضِ ؕ فَلَا تَاۡسَ عَلَی الۡقَوۡمِ الۡفٰسِقِیۡنَ ﴿٪۲۶﴾ 

Moses] said, "My Lord, indeed I do not possess except myself and my brother, so part us from the defiantly disobedient people."[ Allah ] said, "Then indeed, it is forbidden to them for forty years [in which] they will wander throughout the land. So do not grieve over the defiantly disobedient people."(Al Maeeda).



So after some years, the Jews demanded from their prophet at that time, to seek ALLAH’s guidance and appointment of a King to let them fight and get the Promised Land.



أَلَمْ تَرَ إِلَى ٱلْمَلَإِ مِنۢ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ مُوسَىٰٓ إِذْ قَالُوا۟ لِنَبِىٍّۢ لَّهُمُ ٱبْعَثْ لَنَا مَلِكًۭا نُّقَـٰتِلْ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ ۖ قَالَ هَلْ عَسَيْتُمْ إِن كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلْقِتَالُ أَلَّا تُقَـٰتِلُوا۟ ۖ قَالُوا۟ وَمَا لَنَآ أَلَّا نُقَـٰتِلَ فِى سَبِيلِ ٱللَّهِ وَقَدْ أُخْرِجْنَا مِن دِيَـٰرِنَا وَأَبْنَآئِنَا ۖ فَلَمَّا كُتِبَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْقِتَالُ تَوَلَّوْا۟ إِلَّا قَلِيلًۭا مِّنْهُمْ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَلِيمٌۢ بِٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ ٢٤٦




و

َقَالَ لَهُمْ نَبِيُّهُمْ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ قَدْ بَعَثَ لَكُمْ طَالُوتَ مَلِكًۭا ۚ قَالُوٓا۟ أَنَّىٰ يَكُونُ لَهُ ٱلْمُلْكُ عَلَيْنَا وَنَحْنُ أَحَقُّ بِٱلْمُلْكِ مِنْهُ وَلَمْ يُؤْتَ سَعَةًۭ مِّنَ ٱلْمَالِ ۚ قَالَ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ ٱصْطَفَىٰهُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَزَادَهُۥ بَسْطَةًۭ فِى ٱلْعِلْمِ وَٱلْجِسْمِ ۖ وَٱللَّهُ يُؤْتِى مُلْكَهُۥ مَن يَشَآءُ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ وَٰسِعٌ عَلِيمٌۭ ٢٤٧



Have you not seen those chiefs of the Children of Israel after Moses? They said to one of their prophets, “Appoint for us a king, ˹and˺ we will fight in the cause of Allah.” He said, “Are you not going to cower if ordered to fight?” They replied, “How could we refuse to fight in the cause of Allah, while we were driven out of our homes and ˹separated from˺ our children?” But when they were ordered to fight, they fled, except for a few of them. And Allah has ˹perfect˺ knowledge of the wrongdoers.


Their prophet told them, “Allah has appointed Saul to be your king.” They protested, “How can he be our king when some of us are more deserving of kingship than he, and he has not been blessed with vast riches?” He replied, “Allah has chosen him over you and blessed him with knowledge and stature. Allah grants kingship to whoever He wills. And Allah is All-Bountiful, All-Knowing.” (Al Baqarah).



Nevertheless, the Jews were convinced and accepted the command of ALLAH only after they were shown signs which included return of Taboot e Sakina. They were given more and more tests before the final battle outside the Promised Land.



فَهَزَمُوهُم بِإِذْنِ ٱللَّهِ وَقَتَلَ دَاوُۥدُ جَالُوتَ وَءَاتَىٰهُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلْمُلْكَ وَٱلْحِكْمَةَ وَعَلَّمَهُۥ مِمَّا يَشَآءُ ۗ وَلَوْلَا دَفْعُ ٱللَّهِ ٱلنَّاسَ بَعْضَهُم بِبَعْضٍۢ لَّفَسَدَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ وَلَـٰكِنَّ ٱللَّهَ ذُو فَضْلٍ عَلَى ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ ٢٥١



So they defeated them by Allah’s Will, and David killed Goliath. And Allah blessed David with kingship and wisdom and taught him what He willed. Had Allah not repelled a group of people by ˹the might of˺ another, corruption would have dominated the earth, but Allah is Gracious to all.



So, the Jews won the battle one after the other and the Promised Land was at their feet. Then ALLAH commended them as follows:-


وَإِذْ قُلْنَا ٱدْخُلُوا۟ هَـٰذِهِ ٱلْقَرْيَةَ فَكُلُوا۟ مِنْهَا حَيْثُ شِئْتُمْ رَغَدًۭا وَٱدْخُلُوا۟ ٱلْبَابَ سُجَّدًۭا وَقُولُوا۟ حِطَّةٌۭ نَّغْفِرْ لَكُمْ خَطَـٰيَـٰكُمْ ۚ وَسَنَزِيدُ ٱلْمُحْسِنِينَ ٥٨فَبَدَّلَ ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ قَوْلًا غَيْرَ ٱلَّذِى قِيلَ لَهُمْ فَأَنزَلْنَا عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ رِجْزًۭا مِّنَ ٱلسَّمَآءِ بِمَا كَانُوا۟ يَفْسُقُونَ ٥٩



And ˹remember˺ when We said, “Enter this city and eat freely from wherever you please; enter the gate with humility, saying, ‘Absolve us.’ We will forgive your sins and multiply the reward for the good-doers.”But the wrongdoers changed the words they were commanded to say. So We sent down a punishment from the heavens upon them for their rebelliousness.

(Al Baqarah)


The Jews were in the Holy Land (Jerusalem) was promised to them at the time of Hazrat Moses (AS); which they declined due to their cowardice and only after a lot of troubles took up swords and fought for the cause of ALLAH. They were ruled after that by Hazrat David (AS) and Hazrat Solomon (AS) and they both were the prophets and the kings together at the same time. The Jews, however, lost the patience and the worldly attractions go better of them once again. They fought among each other and divided the Holy Lands into two Parts and then more and more till the Nebuchadnezzar, the King of Babylon, demolished the Temple built at Jerusalem by Hazrat Solomon (AS) and took the Jews into captivity.


However, the next king of Babylon, allowed the Jews to return to their homeland. However, they were again defeated by Byzantine Roman King and the Romans dispersed the Jews from their home land. From then, till 1948, when Zionist Israel established the state of Israel, the Jews remained without a country of their own and this diaspora was the longest in the Jews history. The creation of Israel has been termed as the direction of God given in Torah and Zionist Jews are claiming that they are within the divine right as per Torah to oppress the Palestinians who were living on these lands since the destruction of Jews Temple. They Palestinians are the progeny of those who accepted Islam after the fall of Holy Lands from Christians to 2nd Caliph of Islam Hazrat Umar (RA)


However, has there any divine reference in Torah or other Holy Scriptures about the establishment of Israel? Let’s first look into Quran:


وَ قَضَیۡنَاۤ اِلٰی بَنِیۡۤ اِسۡرَآءِیۡلَ فِی الۡکِتٰبِ لَتُفۡسِدُنَّ فِی الۡاَرۡضِ مَرَّتَیۡنِ وَ لَتَعۡلُنَّ عُلُوًّا کَبِیۡرًا ﴿۴﴾



فَاِذَا جَآءَ وَعۡدُ اُوۡلٰىہُمَا بَعَثۡنَا عَلَیۡکُمۡ عِبَادًا لَّنَاۤ اُولِیۡ بَاۡسٍ شَدِیۡدٍ فَجَاسُوۡا خِلٰلَ الدِّیَارِ ؕ وَ کَانَ وَعۡدًا مَّفۡعُوۡلًا ﴿۵﴾



ثُمَّ رَدَدۡنَا لَکُمُ الۡکَرَّۃَ عَلَیۡہِمۡ وَ اَمۡدَدۡنٰکُمۡ بِاَمۡوَالٍ وَّ بَنِیۡنَ وَ جَعَلۡنٰکُمۡ اَکۡثَرَ نَفِیۡرًا ﴿۶﴾

And We conveyed to the Children of Israel in the Scripture that, "You will surely cause corruption on the earth twice, and you will surely reach [a degree of] great haughtiness.So when the [time of] promise came for the first of them, We sent against you servants of Ours - those of great military might, and they probed [even] into the homes, and it was a promise fulfilled.Then We gave back to you a return victory over them. And We reinforced you with wealth and sons and made you more numerous in manpower.(Sorah Bani Israeel)


In other verses in Sorah Al Anbiya the Quran says and experts consider that these verses are about return of Jews to their city:


وَ حَرٰمٌ عَلٰی قَرۡیَۃٍ اَہۡلَکۡنٰہَاۤ اَنَّہُمۡ لَا یَرۡجِعُوۡنَ ﴿۹۵﴾حَتّٰۤی اِذَا فُتِحَتۡ یَاۡجُوۡجُ وَ مَاۡجُوۡجُ وَ ہُمۡ مِّنۡ کُلِّ حَدَبٍ یَّنۡسِلُوۡنَ ﴿۹۶﴾


And there is prohibition upon [the people of] a city which We have destroyed that they will [ever] returnUntil when [the dam of] Gog and Magog has been opened and they, from every elevation, descend.


The Torah or Bible are no more the Books as revealed by the GOD Al-Mighty; as many changes have been made by followers of the Faith after it was revealed to the Prophets. Therefore, nothing can be said with conformity that which part is correct and which is not. Therefore, it is better to take the statements of Jewish Rabbi in this regards: Here is a clip in which a Jew Rabbi David Wise answers few queries as “How is Israel a state against God? Do you demand the removal of Israel? How is yours vision for Israel's future?

In the following a tweet from “Torah Judaism” is also being shared where from the Satmar Community Speech by Grand Rabbi Aaron Teitelbaum; it is being said that "We have nothing to do with Zionism! We have nothing to do with the State of Israel! The head of the pollution is the State of Israel! We will continue G-d's fight against Zionism!”

The truth of the matter is that Israel is an illegitimate state built on the Holy Palestinian Lands by Western Powers for their vested interests. No one can deny the Holocaust in America; it’s the law there. Similarly, you cannot acknowledge the NAKBA in Israel; its hypocrisy, the real face of Zionism. The Israel- Gaza War, the Israel Palestine Conflict, has now exposed the double face, bigotry and hypocrisy of the civilized world as well as Zionist Jews of Israel and all across the globe. It is concluded that Zionist Jews didn’t have the right to create an illegitimate state and oppress the residents of Palestine. The Holy Scriptures gave them the right centuries ago and they lost the country because of the sins committed by them over and over again. The Holy Books Torah, Bible & Quran has clearly reflected upon their sins and the decree awarded against them by ALLAH Al Mighty.



This also raises a question as per the holy text of all three major Abrahamic Religions; Judaism, Christianity & Islam; and that is “has the Gog & Magog been released? And are these the beginning of End Times?
