Ram what are you smoking? You think Saudi royals are loved by Muslims? Sunni and Shia alike come back from hajj with horror stories about the authorities. The fact that there is a friendship between USA and the traitorous Saudis irks most Muslims. It seems that the neo Salaf are the minority that glorify the Ahl Saud. Don't you know that USA keeps those dictators in power until it no longer serves them purpose? Hilary Clinton calls Hosni Mubarak her friend, until the revolution when she suddenly wasn't his buddy anymore..
I don't think you're wrong on your observations but you've got some facts mixed up, and your generalising doesn't help.
I mean, do you know how many Muslims condemned/apologised for the violence that happened, hanging their head in shame? It sucks that those rioting fools have taken over, but idiots are always the loudest.
BritishMuslim, the fact you are referring to non-Muslims as kaffirs shows that you have deep seated prejudice against non-Muslims. Many non-Muslims are believers, they just have different Prophets.
True, but if you think about it, you are either a Christian or an unbeliever, a Jew or a gentile (and the hebrew word also has negative connotations). So it's kind of naive to think Muslims also don't have an Arabic word for unbeliever .
Being a kafir in my eyes is awesome; a lifestyle choice and freedom, but to a Muslim it's wrong. Why does it bother you? (No disrespect to you btw, just genuinely wondering why it bothers you, it's like a Jew calling me a gentile, it's like, yeah I'm not a Jew, and?).
@British Muslim, before Pepe said it, that saying about "fixing something with your hand, your tongue and then hating it with your heart" came to mind.
You seem like a smart well mannered guy, I don't have beef with people like you.
You can't deny that these guys believe they can justify their actions with Islamic sayings whether you knew them or not.
Do you reckon that the problem with Islam is that they have no unity and each sect wants to reign supreme? Eg. I can't remember where I saw this, but there was a Shia group in London calling themselves "moderates" and then it was hijacked by Salafis that were yelling at the "moderates" calling them traitors and so on, and of course, it was all caught on camera, probably confusing the fuck out of everyone.
Who do we listen to? This group wants to assimilate and they are bullied by their own fellow Muslims, and they both don't consider one another "real Muslims". They've had 1500 years to figure their shit out but I assure you, with the way things are, even in another 1500 years, things will be the same unless there is some revolutionary change.
Here...I went to this concert a few years ago. In my interpretation, an injustice was like seeing someone get bullied, or stolen from etc. But I guess the keyword is
interpretationhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n0B0WcdgnRcLyrics:
If you see an injustice, act on it
If you cant do that then speak on it
And if you can't do that then feel it in your heart
It's the weakest form of faith but at least it's a start
