Those, ‘who’ are guilty for splintering from Islam as a sect whatsoever & who are believing in those sects and who are corrupting the GOD Gifted Name; ‘Muslim’ with a sectarian prefix or suffix e.g. sunni Muslim, shia Muslim, deobandi Muslim or barelwi Muslim and so forth are the real adversary against the Lone Divine Universal Religion; Islam and we must shun them all for the unity among Muslims!
‘They’ estranged us & set us inter se at loggerheads rather at each other throats. They cut up Islam into Shariat & Tariqat. Even so they went further and replaced Islam with Shiasm, Sunnism, Deobandism, Barelvism & so forth. ‘They’ strewn the Divine Houses; ‘Masajid-allah’ among them or seized and converted them into ‘Shia Mosque’ - ‘Sunni Mosque’- ‘Deobandi Mosque’ - ‘Barelwi Mosque’ and so forth. Before ‘them’ a Muslim alone is no qualification for invoking Allah & His Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) therein.
The Shias, Sunnis, Deobandis, Barelvis & so forth are allowed instead correspondingly. ‘They’ have converted us into shias, sunnis, deobandis & barelwis etc. They are out for divergence among Muslims.’They’ has molded us anything but Muslims.
And here too deceitfully they are taking refuge under the Scholastic Dissention among the True Muslim Scholars; Imam Abu Hanifa, Imam Abu Yusuf, Imam Al Marghinani, Imām Tahawi, Imam Ash-Sha’fii, Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal & Imam Mālik ibn Anas & others, who were out for convergence among Muslims.
‘They’ have been curse for Muslim Ummah, whereas true Muslim Scholars have been blessing for Muslim Ummah. ‘Their’ disagreement has been selfish, egocentric and for ulterior motives, whereas the true Muslim Scholars dissention has been selfless, noble & for the go-ahead of Muslim Ummah.
Unlike you, I cannot condemn the Muslims for placing on themselves group names. For sure it will identify them by what they wish to be identified by. True unity is not achieved by names and titles all being the same. True unity in Islam is in the heart and love for fellow Muslims whatever they/we wish to call ourselves/themselves by. I have seen Muslims who go to the same masjid profess to the same title - and are still disunited.
The irony in calling them quacks doesn't prove you can offer a better solution for the issue of disunity. I would say let's concentrate on the common ground first and leave these harsh words behind us.
^^ well ..the Prophet SAW did say there would be 73 .. one on the right path .. ^^ with this thread ... and the concept of it .. how else are we gona get 73 ... :@:
^^ Faris Brother .. DO not fear .. as the FBI is here :D
Just a comment .. NEVER doubt your your faith and where your loyalties lie .. its with the one who follow the Prophet SAW and the way of the Sahaba e Kiraam Ridwaanulla hi ta aala alaihim ajmaeen ...and those who defame the charactar and status of the companions or those who beleive that the Prophet SAW ..na oozubilla min zaalik .. that He is 'Like' our older brother .. those are the ones that need to reconsider ...

That is what I was going to prove dear psyah that unity not only of muslims but the whole world is possible if we follow the principles islam has given us. Islam does not require people to be muslims for unity rather it requires that people share common grounds like social justice, fair play, goodwill towards humanity, peace, progress and prosperity.
Please read the thread pakistan, tribalism, islam and secularism, when you have time and judge it on what it contains.
People can unite only and only on sharing what is good for human beings individually and humanity as a whole. So long as all peole do not accept this islamic principles there is no way people can ever unite or be free of wars between them.
This needed detailed explanation that is why I posted some long texts. I did not mean to flood the forum with useless information but help educate fellow pakistanies regaring what islam really is about.
Friend when it comes to following islam, true scholars gather information on islam from everywhere they can get and then try and put it together the most sensible way they can so that it all makes a lot better sense for them and for a lot more people.
The prophet said something like gather information even if you have to go to china. Also something like knowledge is heritage of momin so he should own it wherever it is found.
We cannot get all knowledge from a single person but all wise human beings contribute to this ocean and those who swim in this ocean get some from there.
The only way you get unity is when the Ummah becomes educated in Islam and learns to read and understand for themselves. In Pakistan anyway, the majority of the population seem to follow pirs more than any scholar which is a massive issue.
