Asalaam Alaikum

MashAllah this is the best thread I have read. May Allah swt bless you and all of those who have shared their views.

I have noticed that there is a definitive problem - almost like a parasite that lurks in most people and I am included in this unortunately - that if we don't agree with someone then we must automatically attack someone or group of people and we have the audacity to call ourselves Muslims!

A Muslim does not attack but defends himself/ herself.

A Muslim does not backbite but asks for Allah's protection from Shaitan the Accursed and his evil whispers.

A Muslim is a shield for another Muslim

A Muslim does dua for the Ummah.

A Muslim loves for the sake of Allah and hates for the sake of Allah.

I have come accross many threads on this forum that have all sorts of attacks, criticisms, refutations and defences and then counter attacks and defences. Is this what is Islam is? Is this the Sunnah?

There is one thing having a difference of opinion and another thing entirely to attack and criticise someone because they don't agree with your point of view. Is this Islam? Where is the tolerance and understanding?

Muslims need to wake up. The Ummah needs to wake up from its slumber and unite. Islam is Peace and we must be a means of peace and understaning and where that peace is threatend then thi can turn into an iron fist. We must remember that Islam was not spread with the sword but through barakah that Sahabah carried which emnated from their very being however they knew how to use the sword and implemented its use where the need arose. They fought tyranny and evil and ignorance and dispensed justice according the Qur'an and the Sunnah. This was all due to the Prophetic blessings and light that they carried in their hearts, may Allah swt be pleased with them all.

One more thing is that real men don't hide behind internet forums causing fitna and ignornace. Real men iron out their differences face to face.

One action will always cause some sort of reaction.

May Allah swt give us all the understanding and hikmah of how to interact with other people! And may Allah give us the true understanding of His Deen! May Allah send His choicest Peace and blessings on his last and final Messenger Muhammad pbuh and his family and companions and all of his pbuh followers. Ameen.
