Re: Sects of Islam
Dear muqawwee, you stance if I may explain seems not very useful because it by its very nature seems self destructive. Why? It is because the world does not work that way. Human history is full of struggles for survival. Unless you fight for what you think is right things are not going to get better for you no matter what you try to do to stop this struggle for survival.
Because humanity is split and each group is struggling against the other therefore it is not possible for us not to be part of the side that struggles for our side as opposed to all other sides.
Since we must struggle because we have no choice therefore the real question is, what to struggle for? This is where islam comes handy because struggling for islam=peace for humanity has to be the ultimate goal that will benefit humanity as a whole.
This means getting everyone of us to start thinking so that we could see what is wrong with us so that we could get ourselves rid of that wrong and see what is right with us so that we could promote that right and gain support for our ideas. In so doing we will help each other become aware of our wrongs and rights and that will help us get rid of harmful and destructive divisions from among us.
This is the way to go ie get to know the right way and promote it till all are aware of it and come together to live as one.
So called muslims are not reading the quran in the right context and that is why we have problems between us. We do not think the quran is manifesto and constitution of islam for humanity to base their humanity upon. Once we realise this and follow it we will no longer be divided.
