[rant warning ]
Alright, i have been thinking for a while on this whole “america vs muslims” issue
Now, let me start by stating some basic things first:
- I do NOT support Bush, American war in Afghanistan or Iraq.
- I do NOT support Musharaf on some of his decisions
- I am a Muslim
Alright, in my opinion we Muslims should stop blaming others for our problems. Yes the American’s have a lot of political control over other countries. Yes the American foriegn policies dictate the political outcome of governments in 3rd world. But have you guys ever thought about WHY? Why is it like this? coz we Muslims are pathetic when it comes to do something.
Let me assure you, that we are coward muslims now. All we do is blame others for everything that is going wrong. This whole Lal Mosque issue should be a lesson that Islam does NOT allow you to disobey the local rules. All these articles saying that whatever the Gazi’s followers were doing was just restoring Islam then give me ONE example from the time of Prophet when he ordered sahabs to do civil disobedience to claim Islamic rules?
Lets get our act together. Things don’t change over night. Take positive steps. Know your own religion and then learn about other religions. Learn to live together first. Accept the fact that there are other religions and we need to help them see why Islam is the best religion to follow. We need to educate ourselves. We need to work to build socities. Just like our Prophet did, build a medina. He (pbuh) showed the ppl of medina the true colors of Muslims, got the ppl living in medina to understand what Islam is.. He (PBUH) didn’t order sahab’s to commit suicide bombings no matter how hard it seemed to survive in non-muslim rule.
On suicide bombing: I think its the coward’s way out to kill himself. I think that by the rate we are killing ourselves non-muslims don’t have to do anything. hell we kill our own brothers and sisters (case in point palestine) ..
Taking over the world: Why why why? do we feel like taking over the world and making every nation a muslim nation when our own nations are disturbingly skewed? What is a muslim identity? WE ARE FACING IDENTITY CRISIS!!!
and plz stop using the names such as “Allah’s Army”, “Muslim Fighters”, etc etc.. if you are fighting for palestine then your organization should be known as “Palestine Fighters” .. simple. Learn from the Prophet.. its simple .. He never killed an innocent person for land or pride. Show you face when you fight and fight with knowledge not swords!
this rant will continue from time to time.. feel free to add your own rant in this thread..
