Thanks mate... thats good to know... I agree with everything mentioned in the post... We take a lot of things literally and forget the real meaning behind things. People are more worried about whether the paincha is above the ankle or the daarhi is 2.5 muths, but forget the basics and the reasoning behind it. We also give these mullah too much credit sometimes and blindly trust whatever they come up with. God gave people common sense... that isnt used a lot of the times unfortunately.
Khair.... I've been keeping my eating to strictly non porky... everything else is OK, because I know Allah isnt putting someone in hell because they ate meat from the supermarket and not from almadina meats.
