Who are the Majority; Genuine Believers or Fake Ones?

Most of the people look first for the majority’s opinions to make sure about almost anything and everything including religious issue. While in many cases majority’s opinions might be useful but definitely majority is not an issue on searching the truth and on searching for one and only one God-chosen religion. God almighty confirms us about the futility of majority issue. [The Noble Quran 6:116] If you obey the majority of people on earth, they will divert you from the path of GOD. They follow only conjecture; they only guess. Even majority of believers of God do not believe in God without committing idol worshipping! [The Noble Quran 12:106] The majority of those who believe in GOD do not do so without committing idol worship. [The Noble Quran 16:82-85] If they still turn away, then your sole mission is the clear delivery (of the message). They fully recognize GOD's blessings, then deny them; the majority of them are disbelievers. The day will come when we raise from every community a witness, then those who disbelieved will not be permitted (to speak), nor will they be excused. Once those who transgressed see the retribution, it will be too late; it will not be commuted for them, nor will they be respited. God showed many amazing miracles to prophet Moses and his people. Even though when God wanted to test their faith most of the Moses people failed to pass the test. Therefore miracles do not make huge difference. Those who are genuine believers and genuine truth seekers they can see God’s miracles everywhere in this Universe and those who are hypocrites and disbelievers miracles do not help them. |

[The Noble Quran 5:22-24] They said, "O Moses, there are powerful people in it, and we will not enter it, unless they get out of it. If they get out, we are entering." Two men who were reverent and blessed by GOD said, "Just enter the gate. If you just enter it, you will surely prevail. You must trust in GOD, if you are believers." They said, "O Moses, we will never enter it, so long as they are in it. Therefore, go - you and your Lord - and fight. We are sitting right here." Only two persons were genuine Muslims in prophet Moses’ camp after observing so many amazing miracles! Prophet Moses was annoyed, angered and disappointed so much so that he left those disbelieving and wicked people. [The Noble Quran 5:25] He said, "My Lord, I can only control myself and my brother. So, allow us to part company with the wicked people." He said, "Henceforth, it is forbidden them for forty years, during which they will roam the earth aimlessly. Do not grieve over such wicked people." Therefore, genuine Muslims, genuine servants of God, never care how many people support them, whether they are majority or minority. Genuine Muslims only care the commands of God Almighty and that’s it. Surely, these are the most fortunate people and the eternal winners.
