If you have been blessed by Allah for speaking a language other than English, then please take this opportunity to volunteer and serve your religion. Thanks to Allah, in the English world we have defeated the missionaries and refuted every major argument that they have launched against Islam successfully. Yes, they still have some arguments floating around here and there, but none of them are threatening. They will be taken care of eventually inshallah. However, we cannot say the same for the other languages. We are lacking proper quality refutations to missionaries in languages such as French, Spanish, Portuguese, etc.
So what can YOU do about it?
You don't have to do any research of any sort. That is already being done for you. All that you have to do is spare 15 minutes of your time every day just simply translating articles. Imagine, a Muslim gets his faith increased or decides to not leave Islam because of an article that you translated? Imagine a non-Muslim converts to Islam because of an article that you translated? Do you have any idea what kind of reward there is waiting for you for doing such a thing with the right intentions?
Shaykh Ibn Baaz passed a fatwa saying:
"If someone writes something that contradicts the pure Shariah, and distributes that material, or if he propagates that view in the media, it becomes compulsory to refute him and expose the falsehood of what he says. Warning people about him if he calls to innovation, shirk, or if he calls people to what Allah has prohibited or to disobedience. Until this day, there are knowledgeable and believing people from the callers to the truth and bearers of the Shariah fulfilling this obligation, sincerely for Allah and for the benefit of His servants, rebuking the wrong, inviting to the truth, warning others against those who propagate falsehood and destructive rhetoric." (Fataawa Islaamiyyah - Volume 4, Page 279)
Don't you want to be one of those "knowledgeable and believing people" that the Shaykh is speaking about?
Shaykh Ibn Uthaymeen issued a fatwa about the innovators who spread lies:
"It is imperative we study their opinions/views so that we know their falseness and know the truth (that we are upon) and refute those (of them) who discourse with us." (Kitaabul-'Ilm - Page 128, Question No.25)
Imam ibnul Qayyim also said:
"Jihad with the clear proofs and the tongue comes before Jihad with the sword and the spear" [Qaseedah an-Nooniyyah]
Sheikh-ul-Islam ibn Taymiyyah said:
"Refuting ahlul-bida' (the innovators) is a Jihad, to the extent that Yahyaa ibn Yahyaa (d.226H) said: 'Defence of the Sunnah is more excellent than Jihad in the path of Allah'" [Naqdul-Mataq wal-Kalaam]
Imagine, our great scholars are talking about how rewarding and honorable it is for us to refute deviant Islamic sects, what then about the missionaries?
