Dealing with Arrogant Muslims

[youthofislam]

Jazaa-Kallah...

I appreciate your advice. How do I respond to the nonesense he sometimes says about Islamic Issues. Whenever we discuss Islam we end up debating for lengths of time sometimes arguing about it. We are normal after the debte cools down but they tend to get heated sometimes because of the things he says and refutes. And I am supposed to correct a person when they say something wrong about Islam.

I try over and over to talk to him in a calm and collective way... but it's like he doesn't take it on; pays no heed.

He has an attitude that he is always right and this I believe is his major downfall. He will never accept that he is wrong about any issue.

He still justifies looking at bad movies. Not the Rated X kinds but the norm today with all the indecent exposeure and he says that there is nothing wron with this because it's the love story that he pays attention to.

He made a statement once that he fears what paradise will be like because too much bliss is bad and he's afraid! I couldn't believe this!

He thinks Hadith is hear say and that the quran is not to be taken literally but as a guide... a book of stories he says...

So talking nicely to him doesn't seem to work... I've known him for about 4 years and I am seeing him getting worse rather than better.

I need a strategy.... I make Duaa and I pray for him and his family as well...

HELP !
