Re: Malaysia deports Saudi journalist accused of insulting prophet

It has affected them - the people who reacted to this - we don’t claim that it affects God … It has affected me to hear those words … they cut me inside - but the best way to show the truth about Muhammad (SAW) is to be like him and show mercy to others even when they show disregard to you.
And yes … Allah (SWT) is known as The Avenger … according to the particular persuasion that I follow - if a person does me wrong then I show mercy not harbour any mallice in my heart towards him - then Allah (SWT) will Avenge on my behalf and who is better at avenging than Him? If I hold a grudge or hatred not only will it soil my heart, but Allah (SWT) will consider my revenge already taken in the form of mallice that I have allowed to creep in to my heart.
With respect to those who claim to speak on behalf of God - well they don’t do that really, they are accused of doing that … all they do is merely show what the scriptures say in context to a given understanding. The understanding should be extruded in context to all possible parameters and then there is confidence that Allah (SWT) is pleased with their efforts to determine the right course of action. Efforts meaning full ability to be sublime, honest and just and true to scripture.
Those who do not even associate themselves to God often blame others who love God and are dutiful to Him as people who are taking the right to speak on behalf of God … which is probably a deception they have put themselves into - that no human is good enough to establish the Will of God and hence when it comes to God we should be completely impartial to it … This is not the behaviour of those who are in love with God, and we must love God more than anything. (That is my inner natural state of justice telling me that and confirmed in scripture).
