Are we blind? - Mutawakkil - 07-26-2003 Bismillahir-rahmanir-raheem As-salaamu alaykum wa rahmat-Allaahi wa barakaatuhu (Peace be upon you, and the mercy of Allaah and His blessings) to all my brothers & sisters in Islaam..... http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/meast...sons/index.html [b:89f605844f]Did I read that story right?[/b:89f605844f] A six-hour operation at a residence on the northern edge of Mosul to get Uday and Qusay a bodyguard and a kid? Troops who were involved described the fighting as intense, with moments that seemed "like all hell had broken loose," according to CNN correspondent Nic Robertson.

How many hints do we need from Allah?

Anyway I do not need to read it anyway. 400 against 4??...........That seems fair to the 101st. I am sorry Brothers and Sisters for the actions of our government. I am not so proud to be an American. Is there any country that would like a white American Muslim family that does not know Arabic besides for Salat and greetings?? In sha Allah we will find our place in life. Allah hu alim.

I take it you too are a convert? Brother Todd we are both muslim now. They are no longer our 'people'. No need to appologise for the actions of your enemies. [b:554748fb7c]You have an excellent example in Ibraaheem and his companions. They said to their people plainly: "We are clear of you and your gods, whom you worship besides Allah. We renounce you. Enmity and hate shall reign between us forever until you believe in Allah, the One and Only God. Surat Al-Mumtahanah 60.4 Truly, in those there is an excellent example for everyone who puts their hopes in Allah and the Last Day. Surat Al-Mumtahanah 60.6 And who but a fool would renounce the faith of Ibraaheem? We chose him in this worldly life while in the Hereafter he will be among the righteous. Surat Al-Baqarah 2.130[/b:554748fb7c] The point I trying to make was even with all their power etc they're helpless. They can't harm a fly until Allah Subhaanahu wa Taalaa wills. Look back at the evidence I posted. [b:554748fb7c]"It has often happened that a small group, by the grace of Allah, has vanquished a mighty army. Allah is with those who endure with patience." Surat Al-Baqarah 2.249[/b:554748fb7c] ......if we'd only open our hearts and minds and trust in Allah Subhaanahu wa Taalaa.

Almost 2 years Alhumdulilah! Edited by me *BUMP* Are we blind? - Muslimah - 07-26-2003 As Salam Alykom brother Mutawakkil So u r a revert Mash a Allah. Welcome home brother And by the way u don't have to be ashamed of anything. I live in Egypt a Muslim country with a Muslim majority and a Christian minority. I work near the US embassy. Since the war of Iraq, they mobilized security forces and blocked streets, I am not allowed to go through the street to access my work, I have to show my ID, they search my purse. This is Egyptian gov. I really don't like to talk like this. But Mutawakkil, we totally know the difference between people and gov. When I visit the US or work with Americans I just follow the Quran and sunnah in regard to dealing with non Muslims. We must observe these rules very closely, understand their feelings and threats of being different from us. Again, we never judge people by their government action. Didn't see the demostrations during the war? Again it is nice to have u with us Mutawakkil May Allah keep us and u fixed on the correct path ameen Are we blind? - Mutawakkil - 07-27-2003 Bismillahir-rahmanir-raheem As-salaamu alaykum wa rahmat-Allaahi wa barakaatuhu (Peace be upon you, and the mercy of Allaah and His blessings) to all my brothers & sisters in Islaam..... Baarak Allaahu Feekum wa JazakumAllah khairan for your post Ukhtee. However I feel our problem is we are too soft towards the enemies of Allah. Quote:Didn't you see the demonstrations during the war?[/quote:21a6c7b7b6]The majority of those protesters couldn't give 'two hoots' about muslims. They protest because they are scared that a world war will come out of this and they FEAR DEATH. These people are cowards and nothing more. They care not for us. Are we blind? - Muslimah - 07-27-2003 Quote:[ Are we blind? - Muslimah - 07-27-2003 One more point Mutawakil I tend not to put everything on the tyrant rules, Not that they are correct or I agree of any of they are doing. Not but the Quran is very clear, it is our sins due to which Allah assigns on us those who don't fear Him or have mercy on us. We improve Allah Shall certainly remove the test. This is my own understanding.

Baarak Allaahu Feekum wa JazakumAllah khairan for your comments and that link to that Awakening article. Well put. My journey to Islaam is personal between Allah Subhaanahu wa Taalaa and myself. Alhamdulillah, all praise, thanks and glory to Allah Subhaanahu wa Taalaa for guiding this undeserving creature to Islaam. I will be muslim three full Islaamic years next Eid.....in shaa Allah. I will say however that prior to my Reversion I had no contact with Islam whatsoever. While surfing the net a webpage popped opened one night and I read the following.....which abruptly put an end to my life as a kafir.

I fully understand your point of keeping your journey between u and Allah and certainly respect your wish. And all praise be to Allah Who guided us all to this and if it was not for Him we wouldn't have been guided. But once again Welcome back home. One more comment about the post. I also do agree with u about different motives of demostrating between us and Kafirs. It is one of the puzzling issues to them. They see Muslims are crazy when they don't fear death during a battle. Simply they are not aware of our goal. However, what i meant with my comment, is that we still have to adopt a kind attitude with them and not take them by their government actions. We must continue to play a role model Muslim regardless they revert or not. It is our duty to well represnt Islam. This is what I meant Akhi. |
