I don’t know how I should view that comment? As an insult or??? Who views what I say as wrong? MAN???
Those to whom we gave the Book recite it as it should be recited (Yatlunahu Haqqa Tilawatihi) they are the ones who believe therein. And whoso disbelieve in it, those are they who are the losers.) #Quran 2:121
*WRONG is WRONG*
Even if everyone is doing it
*RIGHT is RIGHT*
Even if no one is doing it
I suppose everyone should re-evaluate why we were Created. Creation were Created for the sole purpose of worshipping Allah and making His law the law we are governed by. Not agreeing with part of what Allah says then discarding the parts that seem intolerable.
So when someone says depending on the culture we live in…ahmm okay then so lets review….Nabi Lut lived among a culture that practiced lewdness openly, as did his followers, did he succumb to that kind of evil??? Did they??? No he was told to leave that place so that SODOM could be destroyed.
Our test today, those that are on the path of truth, is what are we doing about it? Much like you said, we are all tested and this is our test!!! You might not like what im saying, or even view it as WRONG, I could say ‘’to each his own’’ but then I ask myself how does that work in brotherhood???
Narrated Anas:
The Prophet said, "None of you will have faith till he wishes for his (Muslim) brother what he likes for himself." (Volume 1, Book 2, Number 13. Bukhari)
So as a brotherhood it becomes incumbent on me to love for my muslim brothers what I love for myself.
“O you who believe! Keep your duty to Allah and fear Him, and speak always the right word” #Quran 33:70
“And tell My servants that they should always say those words that are the best. Satan verily, sows a state of conflict and disagreements among them.” #Quran 17:53
As for Shia’s…Generalizing hmm…If a people among you practice TAQIYA and hold this in high regard..for those that don’t know taqiya is LYING. As I said in my post, someone telling me they go on hajj does not make them muslim- hypocrites perform hajj?!!! sadly
Heres an extract from the thread
A muslim is one who Submits to the will of GOD...not one who associates partners with GOD...hence shia are not muslim...if Ali(r.a) is held in the same regard with God, if there 12 imams has a higher status than the prophets, if they practise taqiyah (lying is permisable and held in high regard, if they slander the Companions and aylul bayt, yet claiming to be the followers of ahlul bayt (hypocrisy) and lastly the founder of this deviant group is a JEW!!!!!!! so how do you propose to defend them with a clear frame of mind, when their very existance is to mislead man and create mischief and FITNA.
So on a base level they are hypocrites
They have made their oaths a screen. Thus they hinder (others) from the path of Allah. meaning, the hypocrites shield themselves from Muslims when they falsely and sinfully swear to be what they are not in reality. Some Muslims were deceived because they did not know their falsehood, and thus, thought that they were Muslims. Some Muslims believed what hypocrites say and even imitated them in their outward behavior. However, inwardly, hypocrites seek the destruction of Islam and its people, and this is why trusting them might bring great harm to many people.
These people go on hajj, just to spit on the graves of the companions? (witnessed). The recent stampede in Makkah showed them in light of 'falsehood' when clearly the dead Shia's had tattood under their feet slanderous remarks about the Companions (witnessed).
And when you look at them, their bodies please you; and when they speak, you listen to their words. meaning, hypocrites have a graceful outer appearance and are eloquent. When one hears them speak, he will listen to their eloquent words, even though hypocrites are truly weak and feeble, full of fear, fright and cowardice.
They are the enemies, so beware of them. May Allah curse them! How are they denying the right path) means, how they are being led astray to the misguidance, away from the guidance
Now lets talk about their kufr. which nulifies whatever inkling or warped idea they had that they are still bound to the religion of Islam...
ASSOCIATING A PARTNER with Allah...Ali (a.s)
So dear brothers and sisters if after all these facts, given to you, you still persist in calling them your 'brothers' then go ahead, one just has to sit on a shia forum, much like this and read their slander, one just has to converse with them and hear the slander, one just has to witness the day of ''Ashurah'' and see their evil. All of which i have...
