Re: QUESTIONS TO A SHIA
I would not give any such sites any credence!!!
Well Jan did u know that christian religious leaders are saying that the prophet is a terrorist! and that Muslims are all barbaric! Sunni's specially as per Bush's recent speach! Also a while back it was aired that Namaz hurts ppl's joints! so they more you prey the more you hurt your joints? that muslim women wearing hijab are oppressed? do u like it that in france they have banned women from wearing hijab!?! and niqab is considered backwards?!! do u like hearing that about your faith?
I am curious what are your thoughts on that?! do u like it when someone tells you that the people you hold in esteem are wrong, or the practics and the faith you believe in wrong - unethical! barbaric whatever! - do you like htat?
but yet even though people like you would want everyone to love and accept you for who you are, you are so intolerant of others!
why?!
Sweeti.f. you one of these bigots?
So... that justifies matam and barbaric cutting of yourself? What you posted, what does it have anything to do with matam, etc.?
I don't want your answers... ask your self and answer in your heart:
Did the Prophet perform this ritual? He could have a lot of brave and young sahaba died when he was alive... DID HE DO IT? Ask your self and answer in your heart.
Did Hazrat Ali do it? He could have when many Muslims died during war.. Did he DO IT? Ask your self and answer in your heart.
Did Sahaba perform this ritual? Same thing...
Did whatever was left of Hussan and Hussain, did they perform this ritual like it is being performed today? They mourned... not cut and beat your self and get drunk and cut yoru children...
Did Tabi'een perform this ritual?
Did taba-tabi'een perform this ritual?
Answer to all these questions if you are honest to your self is NO.
Then you may want to trace the history of this satanic ritual and come to your own conclusion.
So, did she go out and rip her clothes and cut her self? No. At least follow what she did, MOURN not beat your self and cut your self and cut your children like animals. It does no good to those who died in Karbala...
