So far i have seen a lot of abuse towards muslims, the prophet and even (i still can't believe this) Allah staghfirulah. Anyway i wanted to see all those who are still faithful to Allah and his messsenger. I want to make a group with the most serious and knowledgable muslims. Insha allah i will hear from you.

Sallam 3alaykom wa rohmatilllah wa barakatu Imam Abdul, may i ask you two questions? Inshallah you will answer.
Was the prophet Muhammad (s) fallible or infallible?
Who frowned at the poor blind man in verse 2 chapter 80 Abasa (He frowned)?

Salam alaikum, brother!
Mashallah, it is a noble effort to make a point of answering the misconceptions people have about Islam. There are many people here trying to do that, hamdullah.
I feel that I should give you a small piece of advise and I sincerely hope that you won't be offended or hurt by it. I say it only in hopes of increasing the practical benefit of your efforts, inshallah.That is, if you are going to use a screen name with the word imam, and even for others reading this who are not, please be careful of the manner in which you respond.
Specifically, try to write in standard English. Maybe really young people won't lose respect for what you are saying if you use lowercase letters, slang terms/abbreviations, and don't pay attention to grammar and syntax, but older people will. It looks bad for an "imam" to write in a way that seems childish to the average adult. I wouldn't be saying this so openly, but I don't allow email because I don't want a lot of wackos writing me, so I can't email you. I'm sure some of you think I'm being mean, but I'm just trying to help our young imam reach out to people in a more successful way.
I wish you all success in this life and the Hereafter. Please forgive me if I have hurt any of you in any way.

I hope you are a Muslim who seeks the truth and who seeks to teach that truth to fellow Brothers and Sisters. By Truth I mean the Real Islam that follows the Quran, Gods words and nothing else...
Being an Iman means you will hold the attention of your fellow Muslims, so you must be certain you always expel the truth, stand up for terrorism, terrorists and fellow Muslims who try to lead others astray....An Iman is an important person in Islam, you have the ability to change what is so wrong with things today by helping your brother and sisters see the truth and follow it according to Gods words.
I believe and strive for Unity between Muslims. No Sunni or Shiia only Muslims like it says in the Quran...I will add you in hopes of succeeding in my task of ensuring All Muslims realise that the Quran is all the truth we need and if we followed that we would be a peaceful nation of people like the Prophet wanted...

Insha Allah brother your quest will be successful. I hope while you are studying to be an imam you remember one important thing...people will look up to you simply because you have the title Imam in front of your name...that is a powerful title in the Muslim world and unfortunately many Muslims today will blindly follow an Imam without caring or knowing a thing about what he believes or if he is qualified to teach and lead. For those Muslims that need guidance...guide them with a straight heart and fear of God...for those that need answers... answer them with truth and fear of God...if you dont know the answer tell them so and then try and find the answer for them or point them in the right direction. For those that need counselling...counsel them with fairness and understanding and with fear of God always....people with power often abuse that power and end up hurting innocent those that depend on them most. I pray brother that you will remember that our prophet was the best of leaders, the best of teachers, and the most fearful of God ...so much so that even his enemies could not find complaint with him.

I am not the best Muslim. Far from it but I still have faith in Islam and the all the prophets. God is great, Most Merciful, Most Gracious.
Salams and good luck.

Assalamu Alaykuum brother
Happy to see someone announcing their highlighted goal in life here. I also added you. Thank you
Because of my willingness to learn and craved for truth, I did much research and so, I converted to Islam, April 2003. Yes, there are many who curse Islam and ALLAH (swt). Im on yahoo Answers almost every day to try to help clear any misconceptions and misunderstandings of Islam and Muslims. I whole-heartedly and faithfully defend Islam and GOD.Bismillaah ir-Rahmaan ir-Rahiim, Al-Hamdulillaah iRabbil Aalamiin.
GOD will see Just on each of them. Inshaa ALLAH
Im also GOD's slave and hope to be one of ALLAH's defenders in one of the heavens.

Great Idea. I am with you. But Islam has no policy of attacking word to word what others accuse. We only have to practice the true message of Islam in ourselves and walk upon. Light will eradicate the darkness. But how can we do if we are in darkness. Yes, you are true, we need to work together and bring light in us and that will guide others too. May Allah reward you the best.

Yes brother I am with you.
I am much of a muslim by choice even though my parents are also muslim. I have started my life out of ideas concerning secularism but am now strongly following Islamic ways for almost every aspect of my life.....
May Allah guide you....

Asalamu-Alaikum brother.
Yes. There are a lot of people who are abusive towards Islam. But Allah is all mighty and Just. He will surely ask for their actions to be accounted.
Jazakallah Khair.
