Jazak Allah brother for your input, however I think that the government of Hosni Mubarak cannot be compared with the rule of Uthman or Ali. I dont share the same thinking as you, and Im not saying I am correct or you are correct, but regardless even if we think that our brothers are astray (and Im not saying they are) its better we pray for them and us and approach them with love and mercy and wish for the improvment of all, rather than celebrate and call for the ruin of any Muslim. We are Muslims first and foremost and maybe the biggest sickness in the Ummah today is that we dont put love between our hearts, but prefer to divide along lines of ideology, social class etc.
As you know the Muslims are as one body, if part is sick than the whole is sick. How can we wish any part of the body to be sick?
May Allah save us from pride and help us to become better Muslims, Ameen.
Love, Jennifer
