The Difference between A Caller to Allaah and Caller to Something Else, by Shaikh al-'Uthaimeen
Excerpts:  | quote: |
| The Caller to Allaah is sincere, and wants to connect the people to Allaah. The Caller to something else sometimes calls to himself. He calls to truth in order to gain status and honor among the people. You find the Caller to himself angry when the people don't do what he wants them to do. And when the people commit a great sin he isn't angry; at the same time he doesn't prevent them either. |

| quote: |
When the Caller to Allaah invites to Islam and isn't answered, he's angry because the truth isn't accepted and followed - not because his call isn't answered. If the Caller to Allah is angry because of this, it means that he calls to Allaah. When one person answers his call it's enough, and if no one answers then he is free from any burden. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: | quote: |
| There is a Prophet who had no followers. |

Subhanak Allaahuma wa bihamdika ash-hadu anlaa illaaha illa anta astaghfiruka wa atubu ilayk
If I said anything correct, then it is from Allaah (subhanahu wa taa'ala), and if I erred, then that is from me and shaytan.
