ah, so there was a reason for my suspicion of sarcasm..HeiGou said:so it is clear that a lot of people are going to Hell. I agree we cannot agree on which one out of every thousand will not, but we can be sure that a lot of the people who were saved due to Western aid will go to Hell.
yea, but still it isnt for me or for you to decide, even if it says in a hadith..a word not from Allah btw..
There is still no sarcasm there. I am not asking you to decide. I am asking you whether it is right to run the risk of preventing someone from entering Heaven so that we can feel better about ourselves.
So if sins are increasing you think 99.99 percent of them will go to Hell? Or more? How does a percentage rate to the number of Muslims?wrong again, the population of this world is increasing quickly, sins are increasing as well. We cant take that estimation out of just that group, and according to the hadith in which you have provided, it sounds like the populatin will be a lot bigger than it is now, and also there will be less muslims in the future than there is now, so ofcoarse there will be a lot of ppl going to hell, dont forget about the others that have died in the past and dont forget that for some time on earth, muslims will be extinct.HeiGou said:Yes. So if those children had died with the other victims of the Tsunami or Earthquakes in Pakistan or Iran, they would have died sinless and hence got into Heaven. But the West rushed aid and saved them so that now they will burn in Hell. Or at least 99.9 percent of them will.
Muslims will be extinct? Now that is interesting.
Let me remind you that once again you continue to think to the future as if you are running your own heartbeats, dont do that cuz u arent. When it comes to any situation where you are going to ask yourself, "what is more merciful" think of whether its merciful at all for that very millisecond. stop thinking towards the future. If you were to drop dead the very moment you ud wish you'd got in that one last deed instead of thinking of what would happen in the next second or even worse, the upcoming YEARS.HeiGou said:Do you think that the more merciful thing would have been to let them die?
But should I be thinking about my future in this situation or theirs? Do you think God would reward me for keeping them out of Heaven (at least temporarily)? If that is the goal, why waste time here?
But what is the ultimate goal of that help? Surely Muslims are not afraid of death and are just passing through this life on the way to somewhere better. Why wait if you can go for sure and go now? You say "help" but is it, in Islamic terms, help to stop them entering Heaven right now?You mentioned the word chance, before you think of chance, think of whats 100%, Do they need help?? yes or no? if you can answer yes, then help. The outcome of any chance is not controlled by you, this is completely random in your power and always justified by Allah's will.
ah, the word goal...can we not agree that with each goal there are obsticles? Our goal is not to enter paradise, when you play a game you don't think of the prize, you think of the finish line first and the obstacles before that.HeiGou said:If the goal is not this life but the Next Life, why mess about with this life at all? Why not go for the guarantee for the best of the Next Life?
Your goal is not to enter Heaven? What is it then? It ain't to have a good time now on this Earth without thought of the consequences? In a game you think of the finish line and making it to that finish line - Heaven for Muslims surely?
