Why Should We Organize Obligatory Charity Today?

Throughout history the believers oscillated between unorganized Obligatory Charity and organized Obligatory Charity:

  1. Unorganized Obligatory Charity happened during the time of Adam, Idris, Noah, Hud, Saleh, Abraham, Lot, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Jesus.
  2. Organized Obligatory Charity happened during the time of Moses, Aaron, David, Solomon, Elijah, Elisha, the Disciples of Jesus after Jesus, Muhammad.

But why did these two groups of messengers do their Obligatory Charities differently?

It all has to do with their circumstances in which they preached:

First circumstance: If they happened to live within a disbelieving community where an insufficient number (less than 20) independent strong men believed them, then they did not manage to create a separate independent community of believers.

Second circumstance: If more than 20 strong believers supported them, according to the Quran, that was sufficient grounds for them to separate themselves from the community of disbelievers and have their own separate community of believers.

And because this second group managed to have a separate community of believers which was independent from the disbelievers, that automatically meant that they had their own established rulers of the community (4:59). And when believing rulers are established, the Quran obliges them to establish (enforce) the Obligatory Charity (22:41). And then because it is enforced by the rulers, it becomes more efficient to do it in an organized way, for efficiency purposes, and to avoid chaos, and help distribute the charity better where it is needed (9:58-60).

Now, since the time of Muhammad, when Muhammad re-established organized Obligatory Charity when he moved to Medina, we have clear historical evidence that the Obligatory Charity continued to be organized by the rulers of those communities, who were called “Caliphs”. The Caliphs enforced the Organized Obligatory Charity throughout the Muslim World during the Rashidun Caliphates (632AD-661AD), the Umayyad Caliphates (661AD-750AD), Abbasid Caliphates (750AD-1258AD), Fatimid Caliphates (909AD-1171AD), Mamluk-Abbasid Caliphates (1261AD-1517AD), and finally the Ottoman Caliphates (1517AD-1924AD). Then the last Ottoman Caliph, Abdulmecid II, was dethroned (defeated) by the democratic/secular government of Turkey lead by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk. This ended the enforced worldwide Organized Obligatory Charity in the Muslim Word. And it actually made sense, because the believers of the world once again became mixed with disbelieving communities within democracies, just like in the cases of the first group of messengers mentioned at the beginning. And this was the correct way to do the Obligatory Charity in democracies from 1924 until the 2020s. Then in the 2020s internet and all its monetary payment features were adopted worldwide, making it once again possible for the believers to have their separate community which is independent from disbelievers, while still continuing to live within democracies. And this again made it mandatory for the believers to organize their charity.  So, the submitters today organize their Obligatory Charity because internet has enabled them to have an online community of believers which is independent enough from the communities of disbelievers.

Facebook Awareness Campaign

To help spread the message on Facebook, please take the following steps:

Step 1:

Follow this Facebook page:

Step 2: 

Join these Facebook groups: Group 1, Group 2, Group 3, Group 4, Group 5, Group 6, Group 7.

Step 3: 

Once admitted, go to those groups and click “People” if you are on your computer, or tap “members” and then “See all” if you are on your phone. A list of people who are in that group will show. Start adding them as friends, one by one. Be careful not to send more than about 50 friend requests per day so that Facebook does not block your ability to do that for a while.

Step 4:

“Unfollow” all those friends so that you do not see their posts, but you still remain friends, and they can potentially see your posts. The purpose is to spread the message to them and not to bring their message to us, or to distract or misguide yourself with their messages.

Step 5: 

Try to accumulate at least about 2000 friends with this method. About 2 minutes of doing that everyday, consistently, can help you achieve this goal in a few weeks.

Step 6: Congratulations! You helped us spread the message. So, what we will do then, God willing, is post Awareness Ads in our Facebook page, which invite people to check our website. Here is one of those Ads as a start:

Then when we boost the posting of this video on Facebook, Facebook will tend to show them to your friends as well, without you having to post it. Simply the fact that you are friends with those people will help us spread the message directly to them.

Important Note:

Don’t waste your time to pay attention to what is being posted in the Facebook groups where you join. The leaders of those groups have already blocked us and excluded us, and they are a bunch of anachronists mislead by Satan. But because they have blocked us, the majority of people in those groups have not seen our website. So, through this method, we can reach all the individuals in those groups without going through their leaders or their groups.
