Is it halal to take a knee to show your support for black people ?

Recently, footballers do kneel down in support for black people. Black Lives Matter.

Such kneeling is prohibited for any reason as it is imitating the disbelievers.

Muslims have their identity and would not imitate the disbelievers because our prophet said: whoever imitates a people, he is considered from amongst them.






The religion of Islam provides a complete code of law and guidance. In this chapter, you will find a brief summary of the basic teachings and explanations of some terms.

ISLAM

Islam (an Arabic word meaning “peace and submission”) is the name given by God Almighty (Allah) to the religion revealed by Him to the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be on him) through the Holy Qur’an. It means the attainment of peace through the surrender of one’s will to the Will of Allah. One who so submits and follows the laws of Islam is called a Muslim.

OBJECT OF HUMAN CREATION

Allah says in the Holy Qur’an:

“And I have not created the Jinn and men but that they may worship Me.” (51:57)

The true purpose of a human being’s life is the worship of God, the attainment of His understanding and complete devotion to Him. He should follow Him perfectly as a slave follows his master. Allah has created human beings with the faculties that are appropriate for this aim, and revealed the Qur’an so that he may seek Allah through it. Thus, a Muslim’s first duty is to His Creator; to worship Him and to follow His commands. This is known as “Haqu-Allah.” His second duty is to serve humanity, “Haqul-Ibaad,” for this is part of worship. A Muslim can show his love for His Creator by expressing love and compassion for all His creation.
