Have good thoughts as far as possible but when a group comes out clean and clear, expressing their mission to link us up with kufr then it is imperative that you judge such organisations and those associated with them.
Whilst the camp seeks to almost throw Islam under the bus and still play the old “STOP JUDGING GAME”, we find a beautiful statement of a noble individual whereby Rasulullah Sallallahu alaihi wa Sallam described this golden individual as:
“لَوْ كَانَ بَعْدِي نَبِيٌّ لَكَانَ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ”
“If there was a Prophet after me, it would have been ‘Umar bin Al-Khattab.”
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3686
Sayyiduna Hudhayfah Radhiyallahu anhu reported:
We were sitting with the Prophet Sallallahu alaihi wa Sallam and he (Sallallahu alaihi wa Sallam) said,
إِنِّي لَا أَدْرِي مَا بَقَائِي فِيكُمْ فَاقْتَدُوا بِاللَّذَيْنِ مِنْ بَعْدِي وَأَشَارَ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ
“I surely do not know how much longer I will remain with you. After me, follow these two,” and the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa Sallam) pointed to Abu Bakr and Umar (Radhiyallahu anhuma)

Such a truthful personality, Rasulullah Sallallahu alaihi wa Sallam said:
إِنَّ اللَّهَ جَعَلَ الْحَقَّ عَلَى لِسَانِ عُمَرَ وَقَلْبِهِ ”
“Indeed Allah has put the truth upon the tongue and in the heart of ‘Umar.”
Abdullah Ibn Umar Radhiyallahu anhu whilst quoting this Hadith said:
‘No affair occurred among the people, except that they said something about it, and ‘Umar said something about it’ except that the Qur’an was revealed in line with what ‘Umar (Radhiyallahu anhu) had said.”
وَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ مَا نَزَلَ بِالنَّاسِ أَمْرٌ قَطُّ فَقَالُوا فِيهِ وَقَالَ فِيهِ عُمَرُ أَوْ قَالَ ابْنُ الْخَطَّابِ فِيهِ شَكَّ خَارِجَةُ إِلاَّ نَزَلَ فِيهِ الْقُرْآنُ عَلَى نَحْوِ مَا قَالَ عُمَرُ
Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3682
After going through just the tip of Sayyiduna Umar Radhiyallahu anhu’s maqaam (status), we find this beautiful statement which solves all the trauma that the camp of baatil seek to terrorise the Muslims with:
Abdullah ibn ‘Utbah Radhiyallahu anhu said I heard Umar (Radhiyallahu anhu) saying:
إِنَّ أُنَاسًا كَانُوا يُؤْخَذُونَ بِالْوَحْىِ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم، وَإِنَّ الْوَحْىَ قَدِ انْقَطَعَ، وَإِنَّمَا نَأْخُذُكُمُ الآنَ بِمَا ظَهَرَ لَنَا مِنْ أَعْمَالِكُمْ، فَمَنْ أَظْهَرَ لَنَا خَيْرًا أَمِنَّاهُ وَقَرَّبْنَاهُ، وَلَيْسَ إِلَيْنَا مِنْ سَرِيرَتِهِ شَىْءٌ، اللَّهُ يُحَاسِبُهُ فِي سَرِيرَتِهِ، وَمَنْ أَظْهَرَ لَنَا سُوءًا لَمْ نَأْمَنْهُ وَلَمْ نُصَدِّقْهُ، وَإِنْ قَالَ إِنَّ سَرِيرَتَهُ حَسَنَةٌ.
“People were (sometimes) judged by the revealing of a Divine Wahi during the lifetime of Allah’s Messenger (Sallallahu alaihi wa Sallam) but now there is no longer anymore (new wahi/revelation). Now we judge you by the deeds you practice publicly, so we will trust and favor the one who does good deeds in front of us, and we will not call him to account about what he is really doing in secret, for Allah will judge him for that; but we will not trust or believe the one who presents to us with an evil deed even if he claims that his intentions were good.“
