Many people celebrate April fool day every year and fool each other.
But
how many of us know the bitter facts hidden behind it. It was around a
thousand years ago that Spain was ruled by Muslims. And the Muslim
power
in Spain was so strong that it couldn't be destroyed. The Christians
of
the west wished to wipe out Islam from all parts of the world and they
did succeed to quite an extent. But when they tried to eliminate Islam
in Spain and conquer it, they failed. They tried several times but
never
succeeded.

The unbelievers then sent their spies in Spain to study the Muslims
there and find out what was the power they possessed and they found
that
their power was TAQWA. The Muslims of Spain were not just Muslims but
they were practising Muslims. They not only read the Quran but also
acted upon it.

When the Christians found the power of the Muslims they started
thinking
of strategies to break this power. So they started sending alcohol and
cigarettes to Spain free of cost. This technique of the west worked
out
and it started weakening the faith of the Muslims in particular the
young generation of Spain. The result was that the Catholics of the
west
wiped out Islam and conquered the entire Spain bringing an end to the
EIGHT HUNDRED LONG YEARS' RULE OF THE MUSLIMS in Spain. The last fort
of the Muslims to fall, was Grenada (Gharnatah), which was on the 1st
of
April.

From that year onwards, every year they celebrate April fools day on
the
Ist of April, celebrating the day, they made a fool of the Muslims.

They did not make a fool of the Muslim army at Gharnatah only, but of
the whole Muslim Ummah. We, the Muslims, were fooled by the
unbelievers.
They have a reason to celebrate April fool day, to keep up the spirit.

Dear brothers and sisters, when we join in this celebration, we do so
out of ignorance. If we had known about it, we would never have
celebrated our own downfall.

So now, that we are aware of it, and now let us promise that we shall
never celebrate this day. We should learn our lesson from the people
of
Spain, and shall try to become practising Muslims, never to let
anybody
weaken our faith NOR FOOL ( OR MAKE A FOOL OF ) US ANY MORE.

Please forward this message to as many people you know. Please try to
do
it before the 1st of April, to create an awareness that WE ARE NOT
FOOLS.
