Tolerance is for people not for the acts of harm … We don’t give compassion to cigarettes - we give it to smokers who are imprisoned by their addictions and/or eclipsed by their own desires to continue taking it.

If we stop a heroine addict from taking his hit - we will kill him … some Muslims actually believe this is right … but what is correct here is to take him away from that environment and administer morphine to him gradually reducing it until his dependency wanes and he is strong enough to cope without it.

If an onlooker see us “giving” an addict drugs - he may conclude we are invoking the right to ignore the teachings of the religion under the guise of tolerance … But this matter should not be judged by our immediate actions … but by our longer term strategies. Society has a similar type of addiction to all things the desires want that oppose the religion.

The “orientation” should be towards baby steps of improvement towards our ideals - not necessarily a cutting off in an attempt to correct society overnight.

Those who claim to be “tolerant” however and allow the forbidden things and partake in them with no greater strategy for improvement and eventual purification and “weaning off” they are the ones who are doing such things in “a guise” …

Bella, Psyah has perfectly and clearly explained to me and in this you will find what I meant by “under the guise of tolerance”
