Striving for Janatul firdous
Inshallah, please help me settle a dispute between my long term christian friend that I may or maynot have caused...I often forward msgs to ALL ppl on my friend list, I screen what I may feel to be offensive to the ones that are firm to thier faith, the msgs that I do send usually have a motivational sense to it or like somthing beneficial to the reader of all, however they may have an islamic ground to it....which I myself would jus ignore if I was to recieve it, but read the just of the msg or replace jesus with Allah, if u get my point..The background of our friendship is from childhood, I used to attend ALL church functions with her from bible study, sunday school, and christian camp as well, so ofcouse the family was already quite suprise when I became muslim Alhamdulilah. As adults we only speak through text and email, occassionaly see each other in the neighborhood when I visit my umm. THE PROBLEM.... she claim that I offend her, and her choice of words were kinda off, so I did apologize to her while also confronting the underling msg that I cought, so I offerd to tell her about islam if she had any questions I would be happy to answer her, and I signed "a cure for ignorance is to ask" and that must has mad her pretty upset, becuz she told me her brother has a degree in theology and she would ask him if she had any questions and I can debate with him hes qualified to do so and she is fine until jesus takes her home,....I got alil snidy and sent her a smiling ecard and basically in a nut shell suggested that she needed to smile becus she blew things outa line, hense I now know that she feels that I offened her a few times and she jus decided to address it and that i have become so rightous that I dont realize when Im being judgemental and hurtful....ouch!!!!:astag:.....im lost by this last email of hers and I kinda feel that she maybe right, or not but how many times can I apologize or ???? what can I do? should I respond? how? sorry for the long post.....:shymuslima1:
