Sheikh Muhammad Ashraf originally shared: **Why some people can’t accept
the truth? (some of the reasons)
1) Hero worship:
In the past the people did not accept the truth because it went against the teachings of their forefathers:
﴿ﻭَﺇِﺫَﺍ ﻗِﻴﻞَ ﻟَﻬُﻢُ ﺍﺗَّﺒِﻌُﻮﺍ ﻣَﺎ ﺃَﻧﺰَﻝَ
ﺍﻟﻠَّـﻪُ ﻗَﺎﻟُﻮﺍ ﺑَﻞْ ﻧَﺘَّﺒِﻊُ ﻣَﺎ ﺃَﻟْﻔَﻴْﻨَﺎ ﻋَﻠَﻴْﻪِ
ﺁﺑَﺎﺀَﻧَﺎ ﺃَﻭَﻟَﻮْ ﻛَﺎﻥَ ﺁﺑَﺎﺅُﻫُﻢْ ﻟَﺎ ﻳَﻌْﻘِﻠُﻮﻥَ
ﺷَﻴْﺌًﺎ ﻭَﻟَﺎ ﻳَﻬْﺘَﺪُﻭﻥَ﴾
{When it is said to them: “Follow what Allah has sent down.” They say: “Nay! We shall follow what we found our fathers following.” (Would they do that!) Even
though their fathers did not understand anything nor were they guided?}
[Surah al- Baqarah (2): 170]
Nowadays, the forefathers have been replaced with “celebrity speakers”. View full size (450x321) http://dlvr.it/8nMn44
