I need a reality check.

Brother, I have no quarrel with what you write. Please note my join date and the number of times I have posted. SOME people here expect all Muslims to act a certain way and are not not afraid to issue fatwas (when they're hardly qualified), so my comment was directed towards those people.

As for what "I" do, it was a personal post, so I am not going to be arguing the merits of Hazrat Ali's lifestyle. I am a sinner as much if not more than my fellow Muslims. However I am not going to come out here to say generic things when Cat made thread about the challenges she has faced - challenges I have been navigating as a single 20s, Muslim Pakistani, Male who wants to do well in deen and duniya.

Like I said, my comment applies to less than 1% of gupistan's membership, rest of you guys are cool :D
