That’s right! I’m a Muslim! (any other way is rubbish, obviously)

Stop acting as sinful people and start acting as Muslims

Arrogance

People have accuse me of being arrogant, well there is a difference of between being arrogant and being strong.

-what do you expect people to be who are able to fight and are willing to die in the name of Allah?

-at least no one is going to accuse the angels of being arrogant when they are steadfast in being servants of Allah.


Have you committed any sins?

Even going as far as asking if I committed any sins in the past, when I am simply enjoining good and forbidding evil. If you can’t accept it being done on a Muslim website, over the internet, and you can’t simply type in a good words, then you are proving that you aren’t good at forbidding evil away from the internet. You wouldn’t even cope in a war zone.

I actually had to remind people, when they were asked me if I have committed a sin, they preceded to call me a sinner, but that is for people who do not repent. I told them that what did they think that;-

-Allah said to the angels to go and join the sinners to fight the other sinners in the Battle of Badr??

-Allah said to Prophet Noah peace be upon him to collect the sinners onto the ark and the rest of the sinners will be destroyed??

-Allah said to Prophet Lut peace be upon him to leave with the his sinful daughters and he will destroy the rest of the sinners?/

-Allah is going to say to the successful on the Day of Judgement, that enter sinners, enter into Paradise??

People who claim to know the truth.

This is from the corrupt people, even Allah has said they only have conjecture about when Prophet Jesus peace be upon him departed this world, they killed him not. They have corrupted their texts and reject the truth openly. They have nothing, and they want people to be in their level.

They long that ye should disbelieve even as they disbelieve, that ye may be upon a level (with them). So choose not friends from them till they forsake their homes in the way of Allah; if they turn back (to enmity) then take them and kill them wherever ye find them, and choose no friend nor helper from among them, 4.89

-What do people think, that Allah said to become a Muslim that you “may” be in the right???

-that Prophet Noah peace be upon him said to people to become Muslims so that they “may” become right??

-that Prophet Lut peace be upon him said to people to become Muslims so that they “may” become right???

- Allah has told us that if we do good, to worship him, to remember the Day of Judgement and paradise and Hell we are pleasing him. Yes people bring out stories to remind people of Allah’s mercy, of course we rely on his Mercy, but in the Quran he has stated that we are “earning” our rewards. Allah is not going to be rewarding himself on the Day of Judgement.

So for people who worship Allah (accepting he is Merciful), remember the Day of Judgement, Paradise and Hell will be successful. He will not be changing the rules on the Day of Judgement.

People play being cautious, so they won’t be arrogant, but they forget that Allah provides a fair test. Allah’s words is his promise. A sinful person is never going to be surprised that he ended up in Hell.

Frankly nobody needs to go to heaven to find out what Allah would like them not to do in this world, even if a sinner stood there for a minute and said would Allah like me to be a doing lewd acts, the answer is no. People are already underestimating what Allah has provided. No one in the whole of this world would ever say that Allah is pleased with their sinful acts.

The sinful people can’t even bring themselves to name one person who is better then Prophet Ibrahim peace be upon him. If they were truly did not know about Islam, then why is this a difficult thing for them, if Islam does not mean anything to them??? Why can’t they name one person who is better then the Prophets?? As they can’t see anyone better, again they reject the truth, and there are plenty of people who treat them like if they are stupid, well I don’t as I remember Allah provides a fair test for all.


Being a Muslim does not mean we act as Christians and Jews, do you think Allah would be pleased with you behaving like them, when Allah has already helped you in being Muslims?? Why follow after people who are lower and sending themselves to Hell save a few???


We are strong, steadfast, the best of people in this world. Stop insulting other Muslims and try to bring them down, acting as sinful people. Remember what Allah has taught you first before finding the Christians and the Jewish behaviour as acceptable!”


Allah the Most High said: Let there be among you a community who enjoin good and forbid evil; it is they that shall be successful, [3:104] and: You are the best community that has ever been brought forth for mankind: you enjoin good and forbid evil, and you believe in God, [3:110] and: Those who repent, those who worship, those who praise, those who persevere, those who bow down, those who prostrate, and those who enjoin good and forbid evil, [9:112] and: Those of the Israelites who were unbelievers have already been cursed on the tongue of David and Jesus, son of Mary, for they were disobedient, and transgressed. They did not forbid one another from committing the evil that they wrought. What they used to do was foul indeed. [5:79]


Qur'an 5:51 "O you who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians as your friends, they are but friends to one another. And if any amongst you takes them as friends, then surely he is one of them. Verily, Allah guides not those people who are wrongdoers."

Qur'an 3:118 "O you who believe! Take not as your friends those outside your religion [Jews and Christians] since they will not fail to do their best to corrupt you. They desire to harm you severely. Hatred has already appeared from their mouths, but what their breasts conceal is far worse. Indeed We have made plain to you the revelations, if you understand."

Qur'an 3:119 "Lo! You are the ones who love them [Jews and Christians] but they love you not, and you believe in all the Scriptures while they disbelieve in your Book. And when they meet you, they say, 'We believe.' But when they are alone they bite the tips of their fingers at you in rage. Say: 'Perish in your rage.' Certainly, Allah knows all the secrets in the breasts."




As a Muslim, you are a servant of Allah. Instead of just saying it BE

PLEASE READ THIS WHOLE THING SISTER

Sister,

The issue is that you carry a lot of anger and negativity in your tone.

Let’s be logical about this, it is apparent that you want people to REALIZE the wrong they are committing... right?

So you decide to make threads that are going to voice your concern so you may get through to people ... right? …

Are you failing to see that the methodology you are using to spread this message is not bringing a positive effect to the masses?

The logical thing to do would be to tweak your methodology:, maybe try a more positive approach... one that attempts to relate to individuals and not simply point fingers at them.

There are a lot of converts on these froums, and people looking to convert Insha Allah. Do you think when they read that thier brothers, mothers, sisters are being called sinners, they will be turned on torwards Islam? .... No i think they will possibly turn away and think "what rubbish!" . Regardless of the truth about thier family, that is a hard pill to swallow for anyone, and it is somewhat of a touchy personal subject.

Allah works in mysterious ways; we often really do not know who is a sinner and who isn’t.... really ponder this.

Now I present this article to you, I hope you read it in its entirety as you desire others to read your threads in entirety:




Forgiveness and Tolerance in Islam

It never ceases to amaze me that Allah can inspire so much fear in our hearts when we reflect on His supremacy, yet his mercy is equally as vast as His dominion. Allah tells us in a Hadith Qudsi (sacred narration of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ): “O son of Adam, were your sins to reach the clouds of the sky and were you then to ask forgiveness of Me, I would forgive you” (Al-Tirmidhi). Subhan’Allah (Glory be to Allah) there is no limit to Allah’s forgiveness, even though our mistakes are numerous.

But what’s disheartening is how seldom we are able to forgive each other and how often we are impetuously intolerant toward one another. Islam teaches us that the strongest of servants are those who not only have the strength to suppress their anger when they are tested but also possess an immeasurable capacity to forgive.

The Prophet ﷺ said that: “Whoever suffers an injury and forgives (the person responsible), God will raise his status to a higher degree and remove one of his sins” (Al-Tirmidhi). If we can sincerely forgive those who anger us, inwardly and outwardly, then that cleanses our souls from the shaytan (satan) and his negative energy. It is important to disregard vain criticisms and this is the first step toward being tolerant. Of course, this is not done without difficulty because it is hard to understand why those who have caused us grievances wanted to do so in the first place. But this is where the battle with our inner self can take a positive turn and allow us to elevate our iman (faith). This inner struggle is what the Prophet ﷺ called “The Greater Jihad” because it involves tolerance and fighting the evil within ourselves in order to purify our hearts. This is always done for the sake of Allah and to purify our spiritual conditions.

Islam also teaches us that the best kind of forgiveness is answering the oppression of others with kindness. The Prophet ﷺ inspired us with this practice when he said to his followers: “God had ordered me to maintain ties with those who sever ties with me, and to give to those who deprive me, and to forgive those who oppress me.”

The Prophet ﷺ and his companions were so merciful in their conduct that instead of becoming angry with their offenders, they defended them and gave them gifts. What immeasurable acts of compassion. They went beyond human altruism and practiced unmatched generosity. They demonstrated that when we open our hearts and pardon others, we are granting ourselves an inner peace. This is how we can prevent spite from suffocating our hearts, which is crucial because hatred has the ability to make us internally ill. We think that hatred is a means of revenge against those who have harmed us, but by begrudging them we are only harming ourselves. This is because our enemies will never feel our anger, and they live contently as we suffer. When we forgive others, it brings relief to our souls because it is a kind of liberating release. This is because when someone has upset us, they have a power over us because we allowed them to do so.

Life is short. Let us not waste our energy on being angry at our enemies and seeking revenge against them. If we can progressively minimize our spite every day, then soon we will bear no hatred or malice in our hearts, insha’Allah (God willing). This is how we can end conflict amongst ourselves, since it is a day to day issue we face. After all, sometimes our own actions can provoke another person’s wrong doings and we may not be aware of how we contributed to the conflict. We tend to judge the faults of others, while being blind to our own. We forget how we have wronged others, and we only remember how others have wronged us. In the same manner, we forget the good things that others have done for us, and remember only the good that we have done for them. It is an innate human error. But let us try to remember our own shortcomings before we reflect on the shortcomings of others. Let us stop victimizing ourselves and think about how we have victimized others, and then seek their forgiveness. And if they ask our forgiveness, let us always grant it to them. Because the Prophet ﷺ taught us that: “Whoever does not show mercy will not be shown mercy” (Al-Bukhari). And we must keep in mind that however we treat others is how Allah will treat us.

So insha’Allah when someone hurts us, let us try to meet their oppression with kindness and forgive them, even if they are not sorry.

Important quote from post above:

“Whoever does not show mercy will not be shown mercy” (Al-Bukhari). And we must keep in mind that however we treat others is how Allah will treat us.

I'm going to take this one step further. From what I have read, it seems to be that your "identity" is very much defined by the fact that you are different than the non-muslims and are not “sinner” like they are. Rather your identity should be defined simply as a Muslim in the path of god.

Believe me I understand that Allah has made mankind to need an idea or group to be the "enemy". This is how people often come together and unite: against a common enemy.

We all have an idea or group we consider as an enemy, even the concept and the exsistence of shaytan is based on this. It ties into our identity, but consumes our identity, that is when we are not on the straight path. We become prone to corruption of our ideology, as this is what happens when little boys are picked up and trained to become terrorists. We lose sight of what is really important, and the thought of the enemy takes control of our sanity.

I would sincerely consider revaluating where inside your heart you obtain your identity.

I know sister that your intentions are insha Allah good, and I commend you for that. I hope we can see more positivity from you.

I appologize if i was forward or rude in anyway, I really just wanted to lay my opinon out there. I hope the article was beneficial, it really puts things in perspective.


Jazakallah Khair

I am summarising for the Muslims.

We are coming to an end of these countries, so there will be a time were we will not be focused on talking to non-Muslims.

Of course we will not be talking to the Dajjal and having a peace treaty.

THings are coming to an end as per the "Collapse of these countries" thread, so I am not changing anything about myself.

Obviously other Muslims will be changing, as if they are complaining with my threads, how are they going to cope through the Major signs of the Day of Judgement??

At least no-one will be complaining that we are not focused on doing Dawah when we have to join the Mahdi.

Sister, I don´t really see your point with words. Judgement Day and cope sins hasn´t nothing to do with "complaining with someones´ threads" but asking mercy and forgiveness from Allah.

 

[neox297]

I really spent a lot of time typing that up, hoping you would take some advice from it...

You did read everything i wrote , right?

And you say you summrazing for the muslims and dont seem to care for the non muslims? ... you do realize this is a heavily influcned forum from converts, reverts, and people looking to do such things?

[learningquran]

i just want to say that if any body has don sin he should be admitting in front of Allah and ask for forgiveness from him not tell about his bad habits to other people because the day of judgment if there is a (Gwah) (witness) of your sins then that sin will be counted because the witness will say that i am the witness of it he told me about it so always ask for forgiveness from Allah
