If a tiny band of Muslims cannot work together as a team for the achievement of our common goals, under a leadership that we ourselves elected and put in place, following a program we wholeheartedly approve and support, then, we should be very afraid to bring the sacred and blessed name of Allah to our lips.
Very afraid.
Even the Bible makes this clear as the Commandment (Exodus I think) clearly states:
Thou shalt not take the name of thy God in vain!
So, let us all make Tawubah and get on with the job of Working for Allah with renewed commitment, vigor and sincerity.
And trying seriously not to use Allah's name in vain -- to cover up our failings and shortcomings.
