Who represents Muslims?

:salamext:

You don't know what you're talking. Totally confused and lost in idealism. The religious scholars who teach spirtualism to you could be the representatives of the confused and misguided people like yourself.

May Allah forgive you for speaking out your desire and ignorance. Ameen.

But majority of Muslims is still sensible and wise. They don't like the relgious scholars or spirtual thugs to represent them.

can u give me an example of your majority, like is there any particular organization or group who represent the majority you always refer to.

Every man and woman is responsible for representing themselves. Certain members of society however like to have a representative because it removes the weight off their shoulders by reducing responsibility.

There is no single individual who represents muslims and nor should there be.

I wonder why you are voicing your opinion as 'majority'. From you're advice and the number of opposition you are receiving here, you neither represent a 'majority' nor are even in a position to represent a minority. Therefore, if you fully do not understand the religion, you have no right to say which scholars are rogues or thugs.

Once again I'm clearly sorry if I sound very rude, but you keep bringing up the same points.

I disagree. A representative doesn’t eliminate personal responsibilities. To have a collective unity you need a representative. It doesn't reduce anyone's responsibility. It simply places the greater responsibility of establishing a true society on the shoulders of righteous individuals.

There is no single individual who represents muslims and nor should there be.

In these days we may not have a single individual representative, but we did have in the past and we will in the future when Imam Mehdi appears. There is wisdom behind having an individual representative. Every nation was sent a Prophet (peace be upon them) to lead them, to guide them and to organize their society and to perform many other duties. There won't be any more Prophet (peace be upon them) but as Muslims we have to follow our last Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to establish a representative according to the Qur'an and Sunnah.

And Allah knows best.

To squabble among ourselves makes as much sense trying to decide which pebble is the beach. Just like no 2 pebbles on the beach are the same, and no one pebbles represents all of the pebbles, so it is with us.

Many pebbles, each different, but together forming one beach. many muslims each different but together forming one Ummah. It is only when one of us claims to speak for all of the ummah, does the ummah forget to stay together.
