Some Muslim leaders keeping in mind political reasons, garland the idols in public. This act of theirs totals up to Kufr (denial of Allah SWT) and shirk (making someone partner to Allah SWT). It is necessary to avoid such things. It has been mentioned in the Hadith:

When Imamat and leadership go to those who are not suitable for it, then wait for the Qiyamah.

In the past when Muslims would encourage people to spend money for some good cause, they would do that only among the sincere Muslims, but would never take any help from the non-Muslims.

In one Ghazwa (a war in which the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) participated, a non-Muslims wanted to participate, he was not included although he only wanted to participate as an attendant. We live in the same place, so we should not fight and quarrel with each other. We don’t have sense of honor.

 

Any how, the Prophets (peace be upon them), the Sahabah and the Auliya never wanted this world for their Deen

Hadhrat Ahmad Ali Sahab Saharanpuri (May Allah SWT shower His Mercy on him) once went to the market to buy something. The shopkeeper said I will not take any profit from you. He said to his friends: Let us go. I don’t want to buy anything from here. If this man is truthful, then I don’t want that this man should not get even those 4 pice for which this man sits here. If he is not, then he wants to make a fool out of me and take extra money from me.

Nowadays, the situation is reversed. If something is brought from a friend, then we say: O slave of Allah SWT! You will take profit from us too?

Do not take the benefit of this world in exchange for Deen.

The love of Allah SWT and the Holy Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) should be greater ..
