Re: i dont believe.
Since I’m in the west, I don’t know exactly what the imams in your area talk about. My experience with them has been completely different. I find that most if not all of what they talk about here is interesting and useful too. Same with the tablighis. By the way, it’s not their job to get into economics and healthcare.
As for what nadz is going through, perhaps when I was much younger though nowhere near that level 
I was all over that by the time I got through high school.
Re: i dont believe.
Subhan Allah u worried about losing faith ..thats what faith is..
Think how blessed u are ..did you watch those videos on yt in which people converting to islam and reciting kalma for the first time ? Watch them you will feel the blood running through ur veins. … there is nothng wrong with you there are people who are not even worried or concerned about losing faith .think how raheem our Allah how rehman he is. Faith lies in the cocern of losing faith.
Re: i dont believe.
Sounds like you just haven’t met a level-headed scholar yet and it isn’t surprising considering you live in Pakistan, they must be scarce in a society that’s so torn apart because of a bazillion issues. Hanson, being an American himself, has also condemned the US foreign policies but he also believes that the US way of living is more close to the Muslim way, there’s less corruption, less injustice etc and this is something I agree wholeheartedly with despite not being a fan of America’s role in world politics. Also, Hanson is not only well-travelled but well aware of other cultures too having lived, studied and taught in the Middle East and Africa for many years. He’d definitely know a thing or two about the problems you face in Pakistan.
You tell me. Which is more damaging out of anarchist terrorism, state-sponsored terrorism, religious terrorism, left-wing terrorism, right-wing terrorism, nationalist terrorism etc? From what I understand, you blame the majority of the world’s ugliness on the rightists. As far as I’m concerned, neither group is all that masoom and it depends on what society you’re talking about. In Afghanistan, it is religious terrorism that has resulted in the most damage. In Ireland, it is nationalist terrorism at the hands of IRA that has resulted in more innocent people being killed than any other form of terrorism. Just because you don’t hear masaladar news on the international media about bombs being planted across Ireland doesn’t mean it isn’t happening as we speak. Hillary aunty visited Northern Ireland last week and the IRA welcomed her with a bomb plot which thankfully was foiled just hours before she arrived otherwise the consequences would have been extreme.
There’s such a thing as the “Huma approach”?
Re: i dont believe.
Maybe. Hope I meet one who can convince me or at least get me interested. Because right now, I just zone out whenever someone talks about religion. I’m not even concerned about it like nadz. That’s got to be dangerous.
Re: i dont believe.
The Huma approach to communication is being demonstrated in our exchange today!
I was actually not referring to terrorism. I was referring g to extremes defined as Fundamental Right vs Secular. (I am not referring to any specific religion and am an equal opportunity critic of Fundamental Right wing from all countries. I think you know that - but just wanted to reiterate).
You ducked my bonus question!
Re: i dont believe.
I wish you knew more before commenting like this.
Just for your information this is what they do to protect themselves. You are free not to believe what they believe but i just want to update you on this.
There are many jamaats in raiwand who are called zikr jamaats, they just sit at each corner(there are rooms for this) of the markaz and continously do masnoon aamal of hifazat including recitation of surah baqarah.Each jamaat has taskeel(duty) of 8 hrs, then other jamaat takes their place.
One month before raiwand or other tablighi ijtimaats there are students of tablighi madressa who walk from one corner of ijtimah gah to another reciting surah baqarah and other masnoon aamal, this contunous for one month then jamaats sit at corners during each corner of ijtimah during ijtimah.
I heard shaikh abdul wahab (present amir of TJ) said that these aamal are nothing just a sabab, actualy it is fazl of ALLAH subhanwataalah. I know it is very hard for many to digest, but that is how TJ people work, depend on what sunnah and masnoon aamals.
فَمَنْ يَكْفُرْ بِالطَّاغُوتِ وَيُؤْمِن بِاللّهِ فَقَدِ اسْتَمْسَكَ بِالْعُرْوَةِ الْوُثْقَىَ

my comment-
For those who consider amerika as taghut(basic defination for you is any one trying to implement kufriya regime) it is required by my religion.

Re: i dont believe.
I never said I believed in these theories. It was one of my religious colleagues who said the terrorists aren’t really terrorists, they’re just regular Muslims getting rid of the social ills, the government isn’t taking care of, hint Shias and Shrines.
Re: i dont believe.
nadz123! Look at you, how beautifully you are designed. Do you think how come you came into existence?
Do a simplest thing; wave your hand in the air, look at a best-invented robot waving its hand in the air, this robot cannot generate aesthetics even through a simplest action.
Just think, why are you here? Why are you created? Use your best of intellect to counter atheistic ideas.
Re: i dont believe.
Perhaps you are living in the wrong part of the town, try DHAs, Baharia Towns, and Cliftons of the city. They certainly do not reject* Amrika* and certainly have not revoked their pakistaniat. You can also certainly practice any faith you please and dont have to listen to the so called bearded bogeymen called the Mullahs.
Re: i dont believe.
Haha. I live where I live. Don’t have the money to relocate to any of these snobby neighborhoods. I have nothing against Mullahs, and calling them names is just plain rude. Some of my best friends have proper beards, and I myself kept one for quite some time. So please don’t rip on them just cause they choose not to shave.
Re: i dont believe.
if “he” ask you “nadz123 how can I show you my self” what would you want him to do for you??
I am really interested to know.
Re: i dont believe.
You do realize that there was a bit of sarcasm in my post.
No offence, but you come across as a confused person, maybe frustrated at the society and culture where you live. Thats ok. Whether you want to believe in God or not is entirely up to you. Some sound advice has been given to you in this thread. The choice is yours. The ball is in your court. The other option would be to move to those snobby neighborhoods?
Re: i dont believe.
Very nicely said.
Re: i dont believe.
The sarcasm, if there was any, got lost in the text.
Re: i dont believe.
i do have a couple of things that help you out, regain faith but i need to more about you generally. comeback and write to your hearts content, not about faith but about you generally. i dont read life1 so i dont really know what your circumstances are. do you walk around with a clear head or is it fuzzy?
the only faith related question is when you were reading the religious text, was it a translation, what were you hoping to come from your reading? examples could include i was looking for the halal and the haram, i was seeking nearness to Allah, i wanted to see increase my knowledge and learn spiritually the themes, i wanted blessings from it, or even, i was just reading, init
Re: i dont believe.
Everyone goes through this phase of skepticism and introspection. Most people disregard these questions and doubts coming from within because they are ingrained with fear and guilt. They just go with the flow to gel in with the crowd . Majority of Muslims are like this.
Belief and knowledge are 2 different things. You can never KNOW if God exists or religion is the truth. You can only believe in it. Knowledge is absolute - you either know something or you dont. Its either Yes or No. Its 100% or 0%.
Belief, on the other hand, exists on a continuum. You can have a weak belief, a moderate belief or a strong belief and so on. Belief can lie anywhere between 0% and 100%, but it can never be 100%, because 100% belief can only be ‘knowledge’.
So dont feel guilty because even the staunchest of believers and Muslims will have their belief lying between 0 and 100 and will always be less than 100%. They’d be lying if they told you otherwise.
.
In this age there is only one thing that separates the believers from the non-believers…and that is **willingness to believe. **There are more than enough arguments to support either view. No one can guilt trip you by saying *“How come you not believe, when XYZ ‘evidence’ exists?” *It all depends on the lens though which youre looking.
Finally, its also helpful to distinguish between agnosticism and atheism. You might believe that religion is man-made, but still believe there might be a higher power out there who designed this universe.
