Re: A disappointing Dr Zakir Naik

Truly, Allah :swt: was pleased with each and everyone of those who lived and aided the Holy Prophet :saw: and Yazid was one of them…

And the reason it is reduced to a status of a political war is simply because it is better that what happened 1,400 years ago rmeains a political issue as Sunnis believe rather making it into a religious issue such as Shias would have us believe…That would give the issue rest…

However, Sunnis do not believe in mourning the martyrs or grieving endlessly over past issues as what happens happens with the will of Allah :swt: and a Muslim finds repose in that thought otherwise the life is spent in eternal misery…

Prophets of Allah :swt: have been killed and hanged and martyred and who deserves more of our grieving then they? However, as Muslims we find rest in the fact that what happened to them happened with the will of Allah :swt: and what He does, does not merit wet eyes…He does what He does in the best of knowledge…

After almost 1,500 years, I wonder what further ‘doors of investigation’ would open and what would be unearthed that shake the very foundation of Islam, Wallahoalam…

For Sunnis, not only the lives of Hz. Ali and Hussain but the life every Sahaba was dedicated to Islam and they too lost their lives and had their blood spilled, much before Hz. Ali and Hussain …Isn’t it degrading that we don’t take their sacrifices into account? How degrading is it when many Shias curse them in the face of Sunnis? How do you think it makes Sunnis feel?

As you know, I used to be a Barelvi…Barelvis in essence are half Shias and half Sunnis in belief and are very influenced by Shia beliefs…So, they tend to belittle some Sahabas as well…In ignorance I too used to do that and used to shout ‘Ya Ali’ ‘Maula Ali’ e.t.c…That’s what I was taught and I believed it as well…

But, once knowledge is gained, it clears a lot of misconceptions…

Peace Bro. Hyperactive

Interesting comparison … Barelvi = (Shia + Sunni)/2
