2 Disintegration of Deen
DISINTEGRATION OF DEEN Majority of Muslims consider Islam as a religion only. And only comply with a few religious traits at an individual level. It has neglected the command of Allah:

And do not be polytheist of those who divided their Deen into sects, each sect is happy in what it has with it. (Rome: 31-32)
… in the light of Ahadees “Islam originated like “A time will come on an alien to the people that Islam people and it will be would be just a like an alien to the people once again; phrase void of its therefore, glad spirit and Qur’aan tidings to those who just a script void of will follow it at that its essence” (Bayhiqi) time.” (Muslim)

Only full entry is acceptable
Partial entry is not acceptable
(Sura Baqra 208)
(Sura Baqra 85)
Surely Deen in the sight of Allah is Islam (Aal-e-Imran 19) Any other Deen is not acceptable (Aal-e-Imran 85)
THREAT ON PARTIAL COMPLIANCE
“Then, do you believe in a part of the Book and reject the rest? Then, what is the reward of those who do so among you, except disgrace in the life of this world, and on the Day of Resurrection they shall be consigned to the most grievous torment.” (Al-Baqarah: 85)

What Ought to be Done?
What ought to be done? Get the real knowledge of ‘Deen’ (Bayhiqi) Give due priority to teaching and learning of Qur’aan (Muslim)
As the awakening will grow deeper it will be realized that ‘Deen’ needs its empowerment Struggle is required to implement the Islamic orders in totality
“Indeed Allahfaces (swt)death will, exalt nations who the trueof “The one who in the process of are acquisition bearers of intending Qur’aan, and Allah (swt) Islam, will, debase the in knowledge, to reinvigorate his place one’s whoa abandon it.” from (Muslim) heaven would be just grade away the Prophets.” (Bayhiqi)
