Holy Quran tells us about Ummah. Have you read it?
“Thus have we made of you an Ummah justly balanced, that you might be witnesses over the nations, and the Messenger a witness over yourselves…..” (2:143)
“Verily, this brotherhood of yours is a single brotherhood, and I am your lord and cherisher. Therefore, fear me (and no other).” (23:52)
The word used here is Ummatikum
“You are the best Ummah raised up for people: you enjoin good and forbid evil and you believe in Allah.” (3:110)
Where is the ummah? Get 10 random people off the street and ask them to pray toghter behind one of them as imam. Majority will refuse and say, sorry I am Brelvi, I'm Deobandi, I', Ahle Hadees, I'm sunni, I'm shia, etc etcAnd verily this Ummah of yours is one Ummah and I am your Lord and Cherisher, therefore fear Me and no other." (Quran 23:52)
First there has to be an ummah for one to be part of it. "La tafaruqa feha" And do not make any divisions in it and today 99% of Muslim belong to one division or the other and follow this imam or that mullah. No one follows the Quran and Sunnah Al Ambiya. They all follow their own babas and mullahs.
How many of you say just Muslim when asked what are you?
