Sick heart:Re Ariana

Submitted by Nura (United States), Nov 15, 2008 at 14:56

Nura seriously I dont care what the Christians did in those times. The British have apologized for what they did to India. Did the Muslims ever care to do that.

I knew you wouldn't because you are a hypocrite. Your only concern is to degrade Islam despite logic. Why should Muslims apologize? I guess you would charge a collective religious responsibility for the actions of a regime?

Personally I find the idea of God sickening.

A great exemplifier of your personality; sickening.

All I was trying to say is that Islam is a silly bigoted Religion

No, what you are trying to do is misrepresent the truth. To say the Islam is simply "silly" is a gross misrepresentation. I did not choose this religion because it is silly and certainty not bigoted. Islam has people of all nations.

Now you will not believe when I tell you that I was once a Muslim. No problem. I donot want to prove some out over here, nor do I want to write a testimony of how I was abused by my Muslims parents. Because that would be Hog wash.

You know this statement does not surprise me. I am always dealing with chameleons with forked tongues in this forum. Islam is a choice, and if you never chose it than you stop being Muslim a long time ago. There are many parents who abuse their children; It does not have religious or racial boundaries so I am not sure why that is relevant to this discussion.

My parents are extremely loving and caring people who happen to be Muslim by default. However that does not absolve Islam of what it actually is.... A hatefull philosophy.

I'm confused? How are loving parents abusive? There is no default in this religion, being loving and caring are aspects in Islam that are supported by both the Quran and Sunnah.

The truth here is that yes Christians did kill Indians. Muslims did the same same. But the irony is that though Christians have mended their ways and live peacefully for most of the time. Muslims are still following the same 7th century philosophy which is useless in the modern times.

I usually don't say the word stupid, but how stupid is this statement? People who have called themselves Christians have the greatest history of tyranny and bloodshed in the past. Presently, it is Christian's nations who are responsible for the bloodshed of hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians. WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT??? I guess invading occupiers should be greeted with flowers and candy. It's really not that hard. Take a look at history, how many past wars were started from Muslims?

However Muslims are inspired by the Quran which tells Muslims to hate those who donot believe in Islam.

This is not true! I don't hate people who don't believe in Islam and I don't know any Muslim that does. I hate the actions of people and ideologies such as yours who attack my religion.

Nura you know in your heart that What I am saying here is true, but you will never accept what I am saying.

No one held a gun to my head and said "become Muslim". If I believed what you said in my heart, than I would have never accepted this religion in the first place. Your arrogance is irritating. My family and Friends who chose this religion obviously have a different perception which is based on knowledge not bigotry. You missed something somewhere.

I know very well that your heart ios full of hatred, you thirst for vengence, perhaps even spent sleepless night just wondering how to get back to the posts of non Muslims.

My heart is full of love for my creator. There is not enough room for hatred, unlike you who has nothing in your heart. Justice is a pulse that everyone's bodies beat to. Vengeance can be misinterpreted for justice and we see in the Iraq war, but I'm not worried. I believe in the hereafter and Allah will be the true judge and source for vengeance for those who were wronged. This is what people like you will never understand. Muslims have a firm belief is the hereafter. Our faith does not rely on complete justice in this life. Perhaps you have sleepless nights over this forum LOL, I have more pressing issues to loose sleep over.

So Nura next time do try to have some sort of self introspection before you level charges at others. It might not get you Paradise, but it will make you a better human being.

Introspection is an application that caused me to become and remain Muslim. My goal is paradise, so you can take your perspective of what a good human being is and shove it. You don't know me, so how would you know if my actions are that of a "good human being"? This is where your bigotry comes in. To be a Muslim is to be a bad human being, parents and all? You have no idea what a heart is. There is a Hadith that if the heart is sick, then the entire body is sick; your chronic. I am thankful, however, for this correspondence because I believed once that if I were born to Muslim parents I would have had a greater advantage in learning Islam earlier and would have not made some mistakes that I made in my life. After listening to you, I am convinced that being born to Muslim parents is no guarantee at all! How spectacular is it that I, from an entirely different background and country, would not only find the religion, but come to love it wholly in true faith, where someone like you who have had it in her home, cannot recognize it and distains it. Al-humdulilah, I am so fortunate, I could be you.

What would you parents say to your posts?
