It is an old saying amongst scholars who have been working for many years; trying to achieve unity within the Muslims Ummah, that it would take a miracle to unite the Muslims.

Some say they are waiting for the Mahdi, others say they are right and everyone else is going to hell. There are many people living in a false hope that everything will be fine by itself without trying. It maybe something to take no short than a miracle to solve, but this does not mean, we throw away the truth completely and hope that one day Mahdi is going to come and all the Muslims will join him as one Ummah; and will defeat falsehood.

One step that many sectarian Muslims are taking against unity is throwing away knowledge; or at least trying their best to stay away from it. Whenever anyone tries to speak the truth about what should be common knowledge; such as Islamic History, they are silenced. This anti-Islamic attitude of sectarian Muslims is one of the majors factors keeping the Muslims from uniting.

Those of you who wish to unite should try to get off the net for a while, get Islamic History books, get Islamic Shariah books and any other to study. Always start off with the History, before jumping ahead; that way will help you understand ahadeeth better as well as which people (narrators) to trust and who you cannot trut. All this idea about people seeking unity online seems to have become a joke to those in authoritative positions on those so called unity seeking sites.

:sl: it is strange that when ever someone posts false claims againsts the Prophet (pbuh) or his family, it is never against anyones rules. but when you post truth about history, it becomes insulting. now before anyone says anything about bans and warnings, before leaving i just want to say to those who do want unity to study history and get help on issues from sheikh abdul hakeem and ahmed waheed, i do not see anyone else with that knowledge willing to tell the truth here.

I explained why your posts were deleted, but we are still accused of acting 'anti-islamic' as you put it, in your initial post. No matter what myself or other staff members say, it will have no effect, as you're convinced that we are 'against the truth'.

I have nothing against you brother, on the contrary I respect you for your knowledge and understanding of the deen. I'd appreciate it if you would stop acting as if we are against you, because we are not.

If someone's posts are deleted, or if they are warned for whatever reason, it's simply because it's against the forum rules and nothing personal.

Regarding sectarian issues, I think it is a very good idea to restrict their discussion. Why? Look around the forum, there is a large number of youngsters, many of whom perhaps know little about different sects, their history etc... If they want to learn about the different sects, there is plenty of information in the respective sub-sections and on the internet in general.

The point is, sectarian issues should be discussed by those who have knowledge (deep knowledge). It shouldnt be discussed by youngsters and teenagers (even they might have an excellent understanding of the deen and history of Islam etc...) because its not our place to discuss it.

What benefit could come from allowing sectarian discussions?

It is about what you are willing to do to get unity. I'm not a Sunni or Shia myself either. I'm just a Muslim, but there is still alot of division to remove; unless people are willing to do something, we might get only worse.

if people want to talk about different sects there are many such forums which welcome these discussions, or the way it goes most of the time there are many such forums who welcome these arguments. plus it causes rift between members as they debate like they think they are scholars or whatever.
this forum doesnt want such a thing so i think its only fair members accept the decision of the admins and assist them. its not like theyve totally blanked out sect talk as there is a whole section dedicated to such, only thing blanked out is the fighting of a group of teenagers who will defend what they believe is right

Bro, although I completely agree that unity is something we should strive for, I don't exactly see the point in this thread nor the poll.

There is no benefit in this, no one is learning anything from these pages and the poll is never going to be a true indication of peoples thoughts and opinions (i.e. what does 'as long as we dont have to agree with history books' actually refer to? its such an ambiguous statement that every person could read it differently).

Perhaps if you have any ideas on how we can unify, then share these ideas. However I don't see this thread going anywhere atm, and I fear it'll do more to divide the ummah then unify.

I only just understood what was being said here, and so I apologise for the late reply, but I am quite surprised. Why should we disregard "history books" as you called them, when they were written by some of the greatest scholars in our past?

If anything, we should be learning from such books of knowledge as a step towards increasing our understanding of Islaam and uniting the Ummah thereby.

Have you actually read the first poat in this thread? It is not about disregarding the books, it is about getting people to actually start considering them, because at the moment all that can be seen is people teaching eachother lies to cover up the truth. To cover up one lie, many lies are told; until what people are taught becomes currupt.

If people do not wake up and read what these books say, then there will be more problems when it comes to history and hadeeth.

The poll is there to get people to think, not merely to just see what people might vote for. They might actually at some point see the importance of picking up the book and reading what it says. There is still plenty of knowledge stored in those books, we just have to read them.
