A Thought

[Aapa]

Salam,

I have come across many posts and feelings are being hurt. I was thinking why. We Muslims are under attack. That is no lie. I believe we air our frustrations on this site. This is a safe haven for us. We are amongst our own kind. In a sense this allows us to vent. Let us be grateful we have a place that is safe for us. I do not think we are attacking each other. We have been subjected to so many lies about us...sometimes even I get confused. In other words we are batteling the devil at all times. Just because I do not agree with you does not take away the love I have for you. This is a treasure. Personally to know there are so many who want to learn and grow and communicate...is a blessing. Let us allow each other to vent and slowly the Truth will lead us in the right direction. Inshalla.

I agree with you about us feeling safe at this site. To many of us its like a home where all family members are of different personalities with different opnions. We disagree,we argue but still go on as one unit. But if you really think about it its not a safe haven as you described it, because here lots of people log in to learn about islam and muslims. Some non muslims and some new muslims and some are born muslims but just recenly thier hearts are aching for knowledge and muslim company. So we have to be on our grards every time we post something.
We should always double check and tripple check before posting anything.
Maybe we should ask ourselves these questions
Am I representing islam and muslim the way I should?
Am I too angry to post anything now?
Should I relax and think about it first?
Am I being humble,gracious sincere and kind or do I come accross as rude?
We should remember that muslims all over the globe are being presented in negative way, here at this site is our chance to set them right.
May Allah help this ummah and keep us united. Ameen

Assalamu Alaikum brothers and sisters,

To brother justoneofmillion you are actually one of a million because of your genuine heart and feelings. As I read your post I felt I need to reply and tell you that I exactly felt what you're feeling when i was offended by someone but everyone seemed to ignore me and support the other person. Even when I post something I hardly get any replies but it's fine as I'm determined to be part of this community. The thing is because writing is different from face to face conversations words can be interpreted differently that is why I urge everyone to be careful when choosing their words so as to avoid offending a person or a culture.
Anyway I ask forgiveness from anyone I offended and allah is ghaforon rahim

"i am sincerly starting to feel discouraged you can go and ignore my post i will not complain i`de rather leave in silence.wassalam"

We can not afford to ignore you as we want to learn from you as much as we can so please cheer up because as muslims we're lucky enough to have a spirit as high as the mountains.

Salam,

Asalamu Alykum,

Brother Justone, considering you have been here longer than me, its difficult for me to say anything, but the only real comment i can make is you have not offended me or discouraged me from posting, although it is difficult for me to say that, considering i missed a month worth of threads. Inshallah we will all reunite, could it be a user's post count that influences someone's reply?

Just a thought as some individuals may have the thought that just becuase so and so has 500 posts he will know more. I dont know if that makes sense, Inshallah it does.

Alhamdulilah

Wasalam

Salam,

Please keep in mind..it takes time to understand the totality of the onslaught that is going on. Remember it took Hazart Noah almost 600 years to get 72 people on the Ark.
We have to fight years and years of sublte attack of our values. Keep your courage and pray..Inshalla, the path is filled with the soilders of Allah. Please watch the posted youtube video. It will give you courage.Our brothers are alone in jails and being tortoured...how can we sleep...how can we sleep..they sleep like babies because they know they are doing right by Allah.

woah there, young one(older than me but hey).

Your post is probably gonna get deleted, akhee keep your emotions in check ok. Do you know how many times i and probably a whole load of people refrain from saying stuff that isnt all too great, if you get what i mean.

i dont think ive ever been the voice of reason or the mature one, however you KIDS as i can only see it, must learn to respect one another as muslims and as practising muslims. Whatever has been said and whatever has upset you people can be sorted out, Will you stop running away? I am not talking to justoneofamillion alone.

 

[justoneofmillion]

i ASSALAMU ALEIKUM(don`t forget next time)im glad that you can see that but not when your sunna is called heavenly minded!!!!!!! akhi may allah swt bless you inschallah

wassalam

Bro justoneofmillion, i'd ask you not to leave. We've spoken before and I greatly admire your good intentions and would not like to see you leave this community.

When opinions get out of hand, or people feel that they are being put down, we have to get rid of those things. Sometimes, what to one person is nothing, maybe very offensive to another. Cultures, Languages, heritages, countries are different, and so people on one hand must be understanding that everyone here just wants what is best for one another even thought something may seem strange in the way it was posted. We should not dispute amongst ourselves. If anything is wrong, we should go back to the Quran and Sunnah and check it out.

This is for all of us, placed earlier: Smile you're @ TTI

lol... like many times Bangladeshi people (relatives) come over to my house and after a bit of chit chat they ask "Have you gotten fatter or skinnier?"

That, is something you DO NOT ask in America. A girl's weight is a very personal matter, but in other places it's just a regular question.

Some people see things differently and express them accourding to they way they were brought up to think. We have to go with the flow and be understanding.

AND, back on topic. Many of the scholars differed on some points... but they were still close. They never let these differences get between them (unless it was matters of Tawheed or Aqeedah). We're an Ummah ya'll, everyone gets mad at thier brothers and sisters sometimes, but at the end of the day, they still end up playing together... or you get my drift.

Smile and slice up this tense cloud

I was talking about the fact that a sincere piece of advice had turned into people quarelling.

Anyways i will NOT turn this into an argument.
So im sorry to everyone who does not share my sick sense of humour.
