Islam in Pakistan

Re: Islam in Pakistan

Bhai, are you handicapped or unable to find the way on your own. Your problem is that you might never have sincerely read the Quran complete with its tafsir and the Sirah of Prophet SAW from front to back on your own. There is no shortcut here, you will always stay in the same confused state as long as you run away from doing it yourself. How long will you hide your own lacking by using interpretations of others?

If you were sincere you would have done this by now than rather be trigger ready here all the time to grill some Mullah.

A sensible person who has honestly studied the Quran and Sirah genuinely can easily figure out the answer to the question in the blink of an eye.

Bhai, I WOULD LOVE TO SUBMIT TO THE WILL OF GOD… But the problem is, that with MANY aspects of Islam, the Will of god is NOT clear!

Hence, since we DONT understand the exact will of God, we must do our best to understand it for ourselves…

Those of us who submit to the interpretations of Mullahs and other beards, are commiting the same sin that you speak of (submiting to someones interpretation.) There are MANY grey areas within Islam, that dont always work in the modern world…

For example, do we as men have a right to hit our wives? Do we stone to death someone who commits Adultery? Do we suddenly stop listening to all music?

The problem is that you SAY we should Submit, but you dont DEFINE how and to what we should submit! You people try to make it so simple without taking into account any of the the complexities of Islam or of Human nature…

Some would argue that they ARE submiting, but because there is no one true interpretation that fits everywhere, we have to find a way to interpret our faith so as to allow us to find our own way towards submission.
