Re: Problems In The Ummah
The Ummah currently is a rut...there are so many divisions within our Islamic society it makes me want to cry...
I am quite aware of the situation regarding Terrorism and i kno that the media and Uk/Us leaders are very biased however why is Islam being portrayed in such a manner? do we even ask ourselves that?...Okey fair enough the situation with the cartoons depicting the Prophet were a low-graded henious vile act carried out a being..but how did the Muslims react? were they Islamic ettiquetes?? burning down the Danish embassy, burning stores in several countries those whom sell Danish products etc would the Prophet have done that?...do people not understand that when defending the Prophet you MUST implement his words and actions given in hadeeth etc?...
It was only a little while ago i was reading in the papers about people who ran in the streets of Pakistan (currently a LEDC) and burned down shops that sold Danish proudcts but do they not understand that the people running them shops are MUSLIM? and it is MUSLIM'S livings that are being destroyed??!...what did they do do deserve that??...it angers me that such incidents occur

...Yes its not fair that these charicitures were produced then published and neither about the horrendous toture happening currently to our own Muslim brothers and sisters in these prisons (Guantanamo, Abu Ghraib, Belmarsh etc) but we MUST unite and tackle such situations in an Islamic manner and remember the Prophet's saying and actions...verily he was the best of creation ...Attend protests but in a peaceful manner inshAllah...i have read in hadith that The Prophet (Pbuh) said that a time shall arise when holding onto your religion will be like holding onto hot coal

May Allah guide us all...
Moreover i think another problem is our communties and the leaders....basic Islamic knowledge like the celebrating of birthdays being prohibited classified as an act of biddah is not widespread

...i am aware that each madhab has different opnions concerning such topics but we must look into hadeeth and the Prophet's example...we cant just read one dhaeef hadith and jus make our decions based on that inshAllah...
Youth problems are on a rise....the amount of youth that are returning to the West's yobbish manners is both scary and saddening...these generation are our future and if they go and carry out stupid acts forgetting Islam then what are we left with?...I think there should be youth clubs set up teaching them about Islam and give them dawah to being them closer to the religion inshAllah...
Well thats me dont for now...WalaykumAsalaam x
