Fellow Muslims, I wanna ask you guys something?

Question

So after a while on Y/A R&S, don't you guys get tired with the anti-islamist remarks? Sure, we're able to debunk every last one of them. But they never listen and they continue to attack us.

99% of the clones currently are the anti-islamists.

And then it's not helping that some of our fellow muslims just copy and paste, give links and answer ignorantly.

Sometimes, I feel like doing the same to them, but..... I have my Christian friends too and friends from other religion, and I think about them before doing anything. In the end, I just want to be on the defending side.

Sometimes I wonder what's up with these anti-Islamist Christians, they kept saying things like "Muhammad is a false prophet". Well according to our religion, Jesus is just a prophet, not son of God, but we don't go around telling Christians that. Whenever we want to state that statement, we'd say "In our religion". It's called respect for others.

When will these people learn that? Respect?

I live in as Islamic country, the country of Malaysia.

Whenever people say "Islamic country", people think of the middle east. Hey, why don't you guys look at my country?

We have plenty of holidays, even though it's an Islamic country, 48% of the people here are non-muslims, and they are proud and happy to be Malaysians.

Here we learn to respect one another's faith and race.

If someone is fat, we don't call that person fat, even though it's true, it's just rude to do so.

Mom and dad taught me manners when I was young, how to respect people, how to be patient.

Some clones called us cowards when we don't answer their stupid question, but what's the point?

If I answer, I'd be wasting my time and that person won't look at my answer even if it was the truth.

If I don't answer, she'll claim that I don't have the answer and defame my religion.

Sometimes I get confused on whether to try to teach them more about my religion, or just ignore the uneducated, they'll never listen.

They're not listening, they're not listening still. Perhaps they never will.

One thing I can take pride of, is that none of my fellow Muslims would resort to foul words when the anti-islamists attacks..........except for me if you count moron as a foul word. But according to dictionary.com, a moron is someone who lacks good judgement so it is true.

But, I don't know, I have my patience and I'm only human.

Answer 1

Hi. I am not Muslim, but I agree with you. I have asked a few questions to Christians about why they can't just accept people and their beliefs. I am Christian, and I just wanted to give you a shout. We are not all judgemental human beings, and some of us are willing to accept that there are many different beliefs. I took a class on religion, which I just finished. It was very interesting the things I learned. Continue your path, and don't let people get you down.

Answer 2

Hey

I posted a question about your religion. I got a lot if interesting answers. My question was " Why don't you speak out?" Most of you in this thread responded. Some called me uneducated. I am educated and I don't feel that all Muslims are terrorist or hate me because I have a different belief.

I don't watch the mainstream media they suck. I asked because I don't hear about it. It seems that there would be a better way to get it out. Public marches with a large amount of people would get some attention. I just think you can do more ( no offense) to voice your opinion on the subject.

Answer 3

I do not believe Muhammad was a prophet does that mean I want to kill you or force you to convert?, no! speaking for myself and all faithful Christians we do not hate anyone and although it is a daily struggle I pray to God I remain a good person. I realize the vast majority of Muslims are admirable people and the minority that give Islam a bad rap are not true to their religion, why do we not just realize that are good and bad in all religions and cultures....pray for the sinner to find the grace of God/Allah. Anti- Islamics? not me, just opposed to the bad guys out there some who call themselves Muslims that are full of hate and want to deny basic human rights to others case in point the grand ayatollah sistani, dictator of Iran a truly bad man who is bent on conquest and dreams of ancient times when Persia ruled the region, sometimes good people have to step up and defeat evil. As a Catholic American you can rest assured you have my respect.

Answer 4

My friend your only job is to convey the message of truth that is Islam.Guidance is in the hands of Allah.Answer to the best of your ability have patience and keep up the good work.Follow the high road.Remember this parable or story a guy made his home or set his tent on the railway track.People came to counsel him and convince him against living on the railway tracks as a train might come and damage him and his home.He would not listen to anyone.Finally one day a train came so the ground started quivering the people told him look the ground is quivering he said its an earthquake.Then the horn of the train sounded he said oh its an owl hooting.So the people left him there and the train did the rest.Morale of the story if someone closes their mind to the truth there is nothing you can do to convince them otherwise.If someone does not want to see the light you cannot force them to see the light.Do your job tell them about The truth and then pray for their guidance from Allah pray He may save all of humanity from the fire of Hell and admit everyone to heaven and guide everyone.Thats the best you can do and your reward is with Allah.Do not fall to the level others fall to,maintain your dignity and decorum.Hope this helps.Please remember me in your prayers,Your brother.

Answer 5

I'm not Muslim, but I thought I would give your question a look over. For the record, I'm not Christian either.

I let the overly emotional, easily threatened Christian types get under my skin from time to time - but I try to remember that they don't represent all Christians, the same way the middle east and terrorism don't represent all Muslims.

Ask yourself this - why is it that they get on here? Real faith is out in the real world - face to face. It is easy to preech over the internet - because then you dont have to live up to the message. What a lot of these people have (certainly not all) is trembling fear and emotional lability cloaked as religiousity.

I have known too many good people of all denomination to denounce an entire group of people. I have considered it a valuable learning experience and a priveldge.


Treat all people kindly, you dont know what internal battles they face.

Answer 6

HEY! I'm Christian, you eeeeveel Muslim!!!! joke!:p well, forgive my fellow Christians I am sure they need a good spanking at times....Ive seen their attacks but please be understanding.. most live in countries that tend to stereotype and have been given a bad image on Muslims.

Our God is soo against other gods that we tend to attack others in a not nice way... most misinterpret His anger for other gods. We are a people who try to defend our faith as we have in centuries.

As for those clones....I suggest no one answers their questions or pay heed coz doing so will only give em what they want right? Hang in there, bruddah!!XD

Answer 7

I am not a Muslim. I am actually an athiest. It makes me sick to listen to people try to spread their hate on any religion. I've heard a LOT of ignorant people say we should just drop a nuke to save money or that you all want your virgins in the after-life so you're all suicidal. It's exactly the kind of negative stigma that is associated with the all-American yankee doodle cowboy. I think mostly the young Americans show the most tolerance. (Sorry old people) The older ones have been watching their friendly news broadcasters too long. I don't think Americans know the word "unbiased" very well.

Answer 8

Assalammualaikum Brother.
I'm new at this, when I first came into R&S I was rather angry with Muslim bashers but kept on answering and reasoning with them, and try telling them the truth is only in Islam and try to guide them into the right path insha Allah our good deeds will come to fruition if we persevere.
I was also frustrated as you do by their ignorance and pride but alhamdulillah Allah gave me patience and insha Allah, I'm optimist and have faith in Allah SWT. water will eventually break the hardest rock.
Patience is half of the faith.
Remember, Al Asr. "By the Time, man is at loss. except those who believe and do righteous deeds and recommend each other to the truth. And those who recommend each other to patience". Sadaqallah hul a'azim.
Insha Allah. You'll be blessed. Ameen.
Proud 2b Malaysian. Alhamdulillah.

Answer 9

You know 1 thing: U and I have a similarthing within us.
I know that muslims are reputed to be Arabs who follow an Arab religion. Little do people know that 24% of muslims are actually arabs and the rest persians, Afghans, Indians (entire subcontinent), southeast asians (like u), whites (bosnians, turks etc.), even some chinese and latinos etc. We are not followers of an Arab religion, we believe we follow one god and his prophets,peace be upon them (most of whom were not arabs). I am proud to be a muslim, and a muslim by choice in that.
Something I have been trying to eradicate out of this Yahoo answers is the meaningless hate, People seem to shout anti Islamic stuff without actually knowing the tiniest bit about Islam. The very reason I turned my life to an Islamic dominated self, i.e. Islamic monotheism, is the very accusation of Anti Islamic fanatics ("islam is a pagan religion") Its disgusting to even see these. These Ideas have been refuted a hundred times and a hundred times over again.
The accusations against Islam however rude, have turned me closer to Islam, and the more I knew about it the more i felt like an educated man and a decent peson. The more I followed it I felt peace, I felt the God who is there, and I felt a better meaning to a life. Your answers were wonderful and there are excellent ideas you share with me.
I know there are good christians and Jews who deserve a place in heaven, and by Allah's mercy they will be I hope. God knows best to treat his servants and we need not worry because the righteous will be rewarded, and the fanatics who insulted us, no power except god's mercy can save them. What we can do is reduce this seemingly endless stream of hate, with the love and peace our God taught us.
Thank you
Arash

Answer 10

Yeah.


I took a two month rest and went to Yahoo 360, now I need a rest from there, so I came back here.

Pretty ironic, huh?


Again... it takes respect to get respect. I just take on the role of answering what people ask about, I don't bother attacking anyone, because I "do as like to be done".

Simple as that.

Just teach those who want to learn, and don't feed the trolls.



Peace.
