the prophet divided the world in two contending spheres--darul-Islam(the zone of peace where the mulsims were the dominant element) and darul-Harb (the zone of war where the kafirs or non-muslims held sway). I am referring to the prophet's declaration that Allah has made him the Model of Practice for his followers. It has come to mean that the Muslims must copy him in everything, they must eat, drink, walk and talk like him, even must look like him, that is, they grow beard like his, have a similar hair-cut and dress like him. This is what is called followings the Sunnah .i.e., the Prophetic: Model which is the guarantee of salvation. One can easily say that Islam has been designed to induce respect and love for Arabia. There are express commands of the Prophet, which state that a person is not Muslim until he loves him more than his own father and mother. The idea is that people must be weaned from their own nationalities and motherlands, and attached firmly to Mecca. This is the reason that the Muslims of India call their own homeland as the battlefield and Arabia the fountain of peace and celestial glory. Now, it is perhaps, easy for you to understand why the Muslims of India partitioned their own motherland for practicing the Arab cultural values in Pakistan (and Bangladesh)

U r the biggest joker I see in this Forum...It is also mentioned in Quran that the person who died to save his/her own country is shaheed and becomes janatii...(And Shaheed has more rputation than any other true ulemma or another jannatii)...Yes Mecca is Holy place for every muslims that is true......But ur comment that all Muslims are loyal to Mecca and not concern about thier own country is totally baseless...and only foolish like u can say.....what arab culture u r mentioning here....if it is Islam then yes....every muslims of world follow the Islam there is no doubt but base on religion only fool people like u can distrust the muslims.........Indians who got nationality of US, UK or any other country comes here for teerath yaatra and to follow other religional activity...They used to be tie up with India always...are u going to say that these means they are not loyal to thier home country....no........only few people like u can think in that way.......

Sovereignty belongs to Almighty Allah. A Muslims owes allegiance to Almighty Allah and Allah alone. Our life on this earth is finite and temporarily, while Allah is infinate will exit for ever and ever. We, Muslims are neither weaned nor attached to any land, language, country or any region on this plant called earth.
