^^This is not hurting but not right in a sense you are questioning my intentions,something I believe (as a Muslim) should be used(unless a person has already been exposed) as a last resort or the last fire to be shot.
And Allah knows best!
Assalaamu alaikum Signor,
(mildly) I was not referring to you at all when I said this. I was referring to people who make assumptions about a woman because Allah Caused her to be born a certain colour, in a certain place. And who therefore feel it's ok to behave in very unIslamic ways towards her. I apologize that I was not more clear about this. But it is not an easy topic.
I am trying to say that rather than men justifying to themselves (and the people around him accepting such behaviour) the disrespectful, humiliating and frankly cruel treatment of certain women (and their children) due to their belonging to a group they see as "other" than their own… that they should instead be looking to their own behaviour.
(mildly) It is not just Muslim men who do this; I've noticed that men in general tend to flout their social rules when women they see as "not one of us" are concerned. But, it seems to me, that a true Muslim should always be concerned with how he himself is behaving. Because if we look from this angle… then it would never be ok to lie, cheat, seduce, abandon wives and children… no matter who the women (or children) are.
(smile) I hope this clears up this point of confusion. I actually think your trying to intervene to help Lisa is motivated by the best of intentions, and I pray that Allah Bless you for it.
