Re: Question to conservative Muslims
Walaikum Assalam USresident brother. JAzak Allah khair for the kind words of encouragement.:)
@ravage. I learned them a long time ago, would inshAllah quote after I get the source.
I would like to share something related to my last post.
Except prophets no one can be "The Wisest" in "every" matter. Few might be wise in some matters while others might be wise in other matters. So always better to consult possible sources before making a decision.
Few times in my life I decided to do something, my intentions were sincere, and my knowledge of Islam was saying that you must do that, as you are doing it only for Allah But later on the result of that action was not good. BUT when I read in detail from different sources and shared with alot of people I was able to see the matter from "many dimensions" after knowing the perspectives of different people and was in a better position to make a better decision.
Like Islam says that the best way to stop a bad act is to stop it with hand, if not possible than with tongue if that is also not possible than just think of it to be bad in oyur heart.
^ The above hadith seem to support that we should physically stop the matter if we want maximum sawab BUT ISlam also says that we should do it at the "right" time, you should be in a position that it you have been given the authority to do so, with "Hikmah" and in such a way that we might not hurt the feelings or violate the rights of anyone.
