Ma Salam

I agree, with u bro. masha Allaah some good points - we shouldn't accuse people of beleiving something when they havnt even actually said it.

At the same time, we shouldn't act like we're perfect, but we can give people da'wah to show them the difference between right and wrong, as long as we dont do it in arrogance insha Allaah.


wa Allaahu a'lam.

I like your post. Do me a favor and cut and paste it on the "How NOT to be emotional" thread?

Do that for a bro will ya? Thanks.

........... 2 days and this threads 4 long pages long, i managed to read up to page 2 and now i think it'll have to be a 'to be continued' since its getting late

Although this thread has some good points i like how its stayed humourous/serious with the touch of sarcasm here and there. With the bootiful imput of brothers takumi and muezzin.........

keep it up dudes.

wa'alykumasalam

Why, thank you.

So far, let us some up some tips for the benefit of newcomers.

(1) Try to make the post humorous to YOU. [I know, I fail to do it sometimes. We learn]
(2) Respond to the post, not the POSSIBILTY how the post MIGHT sound if it were spoken by a real person.
(3) Switch on the Text to speech feature. For Macintosh help, PM me, or PC Help PM Muezzin.
(4) Use commas, question marks wisely. When in doubt, refer to your English Language books under the subject PUNCTUATION or PM czgibson.
(5) Read that hadeeth that Fi_Sabilillah quoted. Nice one!
(6)Post #37, too complicated to summarize. Just read it.
(7) Click SUBMIT at your own risk. If you can't handle your emotions, please don't click submit. You'll end up exposing yourself with your paroxysm of name calling which can be detrimental to your health.
(8) Semantics rocks: Quoting muezzin

Okay boys and girls. If you can, please read. There are some really neat balanced opinion in the thread.

Muezzin has been a gem. Halima showed some real class there, and other contributors like Silver Pearl, Swanlake, Shadow [I like to hang out with you, you're funny! We can get some Cappucino later, MY TREAT!!], Charisma, Fi_Sabilillah [as factual as ever! I salute you1] showed tremendous coolness in their posts. Sorry, no time to write everyone's name.

Wonderful!! .

Me, I've been so like Takumi Nakashima. [Hattori Hanzo can eat my shoe!]

Not being emotional = Being fully logical.

Simple really.

Assalamu Alaikum

hey bro, ur back! welcome back! been a long time.
where u been?

fi aman Allah
w'salaam

Just floating around other forums. I thought i'd wade my way through the immaturity on these forums to find something useful to contribute to

I like that simplicity. Now to convince my comrades...

Who's the comrades?

Salam

Very interesting views everyone

Everyone



And asalaam alaikum, Lateralus, haven't seen you here in a while!

Public advice or PM?

It depends, and the jury is still out there.

Let's see some Guidelines.

(1) Public refutation of a post is needed because the original post is viewed by members publicly. So, if a member has a different opinion and would like to voice it, it's agreeable that he/she refute the opinion publicly. Of course, the caveat is, disagree with the OPINION not the person's way of writing.

(2) Sometimes due to overzealousness of refuting an opinion, we get carried away and JUDGE a person by his opinion. For example, if someone posts without daleel [even though the methodology of Fiqh clearly says that all wordly affairs are MUBAH except when Allah and His messenger had decreed it impermissible], some members are to quick to write "Are you writing from your desires?". What good will it bring to post such a sentence in PUBLIC?

(3) Or, if someone says, "Maybe the mods can find the daleel for me" and suddenly a respond comes in PUBLICLY, "that is laziness!". What good will it bring to that member who asks sincerely if the mods can help him out? Giving him an attribute that the prophet had made dua to NOT to have, is unprofessional and uncalled for.

(4) A very good example is on PM that I got from the member Nazia about my post that was out of line. Rather than crucifying me in public she chose to take the trouble to advise my post through a more confidential manner PM, unless you're on the member's ignore list, you'll be fine. Thanks Nazia.

So, choose the method of posting wisely. If you can live without humiliating a person's personality, then publicly voice your opinion. But, if you give attributes such as lazy, foolish or idiotic than maybe you need to sit down and get a real job, so that you won't have much time to expose your emotional fart.

Thanks.
