Re: 'Meet the Press' Tim Russert Dead at 58
why are some people so insensitive? Do they not remember that our Holy Prophet(peace be on him) stood up in respect while the funeral of a jew passed by? Was that jew a friend of the muslims? was it possible that the deceased was an enemy of the muslims and might've plotted against them while he was alive, as so many other jews of madina did at the time? Yet did it matter to the Holy Prophet(peace be on him)? When someone is dead, their case is with God so let God do what He wills. Why should it matter if a lot of people are praising him. Does their praise take anything away from us? Islam itself tells us to remember people's good deeds when they are dead.
