I CHALLENGE YOU ALL
I have read all three pages rerding the discussion about syeds,caste system, hindu culture.
I have read many statements denoucing all the above. but can tell you with practical experience that this is no more than talk.
Wait till you come up with a practical issue like i pointed out about marriages to non syeds especially a syed girl marrying a non syed man. It becomes a totally different ball game.
All of you may be coz of education or other influences are saying and talking about equal opps but your fathers and mothers may not agree on this.
There view is that syeds are better than all the rest, it does not matter about deeds they will get heaven just by being related, non syeds are less than syeds. (This and other things have been said to me by a person who stated she loved me the most)
All the views you all are stating changed when her and his daughter stated that she wanted to marry me.( i am a non syed but Imam Hussains pbuh wife comes from my Gakhar/Kiani. family)
Wait till you come to a practical issue your views will cahnge.
Or you can all do me a favour by telling all your elders that that every one is equal in Islam.
YOu can change my views by obtaining a Fatwa stating that it is possible.
( Recently a syed girl married a non syed, only the mother gave consent, the family members through influence obtained a Fatwa stating that it was un lawful and any one who does will be killed and also any one who assists. This fatwa was given by a Shia maulvi from Sargodha region of pakistan)
See if you can get a Fatwa to say that it is possible!!
That is my challenge to you who speak of equality!!!!!!!!! from a shia a scholar if possible!!!
Send me an email at [email protected] when you have been succesful.
Proove all of us wrong that the people who are descendants of the Imams are up to the task.
Prooving me wrong will enforce the idea that the caste system does not exist in Muslims
( I hope you can)
BE SUCCESSFUL FOR GOD SAKES
REMEMBER NTHE LAST ADDRESS OF THE PROPHET AND ITS HUMAN RIGHTS CHARTER!!!!!
