Freedom of thought... My Foot...! That term is synonymous with shayaateen in todays context.

I like the way Mufti saheb approached the issue. The problem most of the people have a hidden inferiority complex that they accept western standards and their frame of references wholeheartedly. But when someone changes the perspective, its not accepted. It also occurs subconsciously because we are constantly being bombarded with information from biased media. During my jahaliyath I even used to think against the taliban. Only when i started spending time in sunniforum my 'frame of reference' changed. It was like I was sleep walking and someone smacked me on the head and woke me up.
