Re: Women leading Friday mixed gender gathering prayer… Some “Rooh Parwar” highlights..
I have to agree with you on this points - excellent one it is - about giving galiyaN to such people. Islam doesnt allow us so insult or degrade another. We are taught to be patient, and we must teach. I dont see how we will get anywhere if we start attacking. This is a weakness. When we see such things we should voice our opinions, but when we start insulting and degrading other people - thats where we go wrong.
However pcg, a person does not have to be a perfect Muslim to say it is wrong. If a person knows that such things, women leading prayers are wrong, he/she is free to say so. It is wrong to askthem whether they are perfect Muslims or now.because where a person is a perfect Muslim or not, doesnt change how Islam IS.
And pcg calling somebody an ass is alright?
And it is up to Allah who embraces Islam, not people like Amina Wudood.And it might bring one person towards Islam, but it is driving hundreds away - what of that? And this friend of yours thats reconsidering Islam - shes going to end up believing that women in such a gathering, shoes no scarves leading prayers is alright? Hows that spreading Islam? If a person wishes to spread Islam, he/she spread the word that Allah has sent down to us. Not his/her own version of it. If we started changing Islam to suit our ways - all of us would have these sub groups where we could tell people 'hey this is great , come join us."
And those that know what Islam is, those that stand by and let others commit wrongs will also be held responsible.
