SANHA MOURNS THE LOSS OF KUFFAR WHOSE MEMORIAL WAS PERFORMED IN CHAPEL

Question: Dr Aubrey Parsons is a notable figure in the food industry but died on Kufr on the 7th May 2025. Just days after a Muslim organisation who claims to be feeding this Ummah with Halaal sends out a consolation message, “In memory of Dr Aubrey Parsons”. This is can be found on their   Instagram (one could simply just click on the word instagram and it will take you directly to their statement).

Does Islam cater for such actions?

Answer:

Dr Aubrey Parsons left a legacy of Kufr. There is no excuses today and there will be no consideration for Murtaddeen who claim that “we cannot judge how they passed away”. Yes, we will judge. If a person dies on Kufr they will not be buried in a Muslim cemetery, there will be no Janaazah Salaah for them. They will be declared a disbeliever of Allah Ta’alaa.

Now back to Sanha who has been in bed with him for many years. This is not something new. When an organisation promotes beliefs which are in direct conflict with the Qur’aan Shareef then how can we ever place our trust in the food that they claim to be Halaal or Haraam?

Now before SANHA denies and goes in round abouts, you the reader, witness yourself what their poster below says, “In memory of Dr Aubrey Parsons”.

The question to ask was he a Muslim? The answer is no! Look at the direct text from the website : FOODStuff SA | Obituary: Dr Aubrey Parsons reads:

“A memorial service for the late Dr Aubrey Parsons will be held at 10h00 on 13 May at Martin’s Funeral Chapel, 564 Ontdekkers Rd, Florida”

Now look at the verse of the Quraan Shareef:

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لَا تَتَّخِذُوْا عَدُوِّیْ وَ عَدُوَّكُمْ اَوْلِیَآءَ تُلْقُوْنَ اِلَیْهِمْ بِالْمَوَدَّةِ وَ قَدْ كَفَرُوْا بِمَا جَآءَكُمْ مِّنَ الْحَقِّ

0 you who believe, do not take My enemies and your enemies for friends, expressing love with them, while they have rejected the Truth that has come to you
Suratul Mumtahanah, Verse 1

Gaze back at SANHA’s statement: “He leaves behind a legacy of humility….”

The fact that he has disbelieved in Allah Ta’alaa proves he has absolutely no humility. Every Muslim knows humility is only when you first lower yourself to Allah Ta’alaa! Expressing humility to Rasulullah Sallallahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam without lowering oneself to Allah Ta’alaa first is not humility. This is what made Sayyiduna Ka’b ibn Maalik Radhiyallahu ‘anhu’s apology stand out moments after the expedition of Tabuk.

Remember these golden words, Sayyiduna Ka’b Radhiyallahu ‘anhu knew he can present excuses to make Rasulullah Sallallahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam happy but this would be at the expense of making Allah Ta’alaa displeased and this would be resulting eventually in Rasulullah Sallallahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam’s anger in a matter of time.

Thus intelligently and remorsefully he said:

If humility is first to Allah Ta’alaa even in pleasing Allah Ta’alaa’s beloved: the best of creation Rasulullah Sallallahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam then what gives these bootlickers of Kuffaar the right to praise Dr Aubrey Parson’s false humility to his creed of taking a son to Allah Ta’alaa.

When humility is expressed solely for Allah Ta’alaa then it raises a persons status. What is the result when a rejector of Allah Ta’alaa expresses humility? Who is he expressing humility for?

“‏مَنْ يَتَوَاضَعْ لِلَّهِ سُبْحَانَهُ دَرَجَةً يَرْفَعْهُ اللَّهُ بِهِ دَرَجَةً

“Whoever humbles himself one degree for the sake of Allah, Allah will raise him in status one degree” Ibn Majah 4176

Rejecting Allah Ta’alaa is not humility rather this is pride and arrogance:

“وَمَنْ يَتَكَبَّرْ عَلَى اللَّهِ دَرَجَةً يَضَعْهُ اللَّهُ بِهِ دَرَجَةً حَتَّى يَجْعَلَهُ فِي أَسْفَلِ السَّافِلِينَ ”
and whoever behaves arrogantly towards Allah one degree, Allah will lower him in status one degree, until He makes him among the lowest of the low.” Ibn Majah 4176

Thus such individuals and their supporters are reduced to the lowest of the low. Yes, according to the Quraan Shareef SANHA is part of this Kufr circle:

یٰۤاَیُّهَا الَّذِیْنَ اٰمَنُوْا لَا تَتَّخِذُوا الْیَهُوْدَ وَ النَّصٰرٰۤى اَوْلِیَآءَ

O those who believe, do not take the Jews and Christians for intimate friends.

بَعْضُهُمْ اَوْلِیَآءُ بَعْض

They are friends to each other

وَ مَنْ یَّتَوَلَّهُمْ مِّنْكُمْ فَاِنَّهٗ مِنْهُمْ

And whoever takes intimate friends from them, he is one of them

اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا یَهْدِی الْقَوْمَ الظّٰلِمِیْنَ

Surely, Allah does not take the unjust people to the right path. (Verse 51, Surah al-Maaidah)

When Imaam Ahmed b. Hanbal Rahmatullahi ‘alaihi was asked why he would shut his eyes when Christians happened to be in his direction, the great Imaam replied:

لا أقدر أنظر الى من أفترى على الله و كذب عليه
(طبقات الحنابلة)

“I do not have the ability to look at someone who has slandered and placed false allegations upon Allah Ta’alaa”

Now ask your heart, “why do I feel so lethargic when it comes to doing good actions”. Look back at who are you placing your trust on. You are what you eat!
