(This is a post I failed to publish earlier, for reasons I can't say)
WHAT DO INTELLIGENT PEOPLE THINK ABOUT ISLAM?
Should Islam be #banned ?
What about someone like, the UN Special Rapporteur To #Palestine ?
What does he say? Go to his website Transnational.org to find out...
What did he say about the Quran, for example...
Did he say, like these small-minded idiots with their channels, that Islam is evil?
Or that ppl should burn the "Koran" bc that's permitted "free speech"?
Let me ask this: when has free speech (like that) saved anyone, or changed the world for the better?
These haters of the Quran and Prophet Muhammad don't care about saving people.
If they had, they would have already been on Israel to have mercy on the Palestinians who are killed every day over there.
No, its only #Islam they want to stop, not a terrorist state like Israel.
That's too hot for them to handle... they want views not trouble!
They don't want to get #banned on Youtube or social media platforms, they don't want the ire of Zionists. They just wanna get more subscribers, more views and more anger because they can then also make their little "I react to hate comments" videos.
And because (for views) them getting "hate" is important, but Muslims anger is of no consequence.
Muslims anger, when it boils over, however, into violence will be big news. And many people, Muslims and non Muslims included, can be killed or hurt.
That probably gives them more reason to point the accusing finger at Muslims and their #religion but never do they admit their own fault in the madness.
They draw or print caricatures in the paper, then wait and see. They do this with their #stupid protests, too.
They wonder if they should "burn a Koran" or not (the purpose of which is still unclear to me; there are books of other religions that are far less humane, historically accurate or "scientific".
These books may also tell of killing 'infidels', or promote racism, but hey, we don't see Muslims advocating burning them.
But I think we should realize that there are things which Muslims will never do that the Non believers will do.
Those haters mock Islam unashamedly and with their 'creative' outputs; they think that gives them an advantage!
But the fair minded, intelligent ppl are not fooled by your mean spirited attacks on Islam or your childish games.
There will come a day when Islam will not be the target of hate that it is today, when it can be defended in a court of law, just like the special rapporteur to Palestine wants. Because hate speech against Islam and the "Koran" isn't worth peoples lives or the damage that occurs when some 'nutters' advocate burning a holy book or drawing insults; actions which have no other purpose than to anger Muslims.
A woman like Asia Bibi has bought into the idea that her free speech is so much needed in the world, that she got herself arrested and imprisoned for 8 long years (in solitary).
Does she now realize why what she did was a total loss, and that her free speech has gained herself and the world absolutely NOTHING!?
I hope she has learned that even #freedom has its limits. Yes, you are free to change religions. Maybe not in all countries of the world. Maybe not in your country.
But your country is not going to change just because you think yourself above the law - In your heart you are whatever you believe. So, you are a Christian or a Muslim, or a Hindu or a Sikh...
But the law in #Pakistan doesn't permit hate speech against the prophet of Allah, PBUH. What made you say the things you did, Asia Bibi? Was it God or the devil!? Jesus??
As Muslims we need not react to every time something like this happens. Certainly never with violence. Permitted speech, like video reactions, a blogpost, etc are within our rights.
And why shouldn't we speak out against hate speech? Nothing is accomplished by our own anger at the stupidity of the enemies of Islam or their childish rants, hate speech or incredibly useless protests.
But maybe something will come of speaking out against hate, and the small-minded ppl with tunnel vision who only see Islam as an enemy and Muslims as less fit to rule than they themselves, although they have already proven themselves capable of terrible crimes and even human rights abuses. It is the West that used the A bomb, or bombed Germany to bits. They had no qualms about killing and maiming during the Crusades in Europe before.
Nor did they feel a lot of guilt at killing Iraqis or raping some innocent girls at the time they were in the throes of their insane occupations. Later, when wracked with guilt and PTSD, they did see the
enormity of the violence they had wrought, but too little too late, and only when it was clear that they had hurt themselves far worse (maybe?) in the process than they had hurt the "enemies" they were there to (either kill or) set free.
There will be a day when the haters come to understand that their lives have been, for the most part, an utter waste. They will come to know.
Hitchens is not very much celebrated anywhere. We don't see people embracing the past!
His shoes have been filled by the less capable and laughable, not that I ever liked Hitchens or even thought him extremely intelligent or even gave his many speeches a thorough listen. I have seen more of them over the years than I care to admit but not obsessively or with any compulsion to eradicate his kind, that would be a form of mental illness...
But that other atheists like Abdullah Sameer will now even admit that maybe there is something to redeem the Muslims... well I already know they will not be able to keep saying evil things about Islam as in the past; they have very often ignored the good that Islam brought.
They also have no proofs for what they say about the prophet Muhammad, though they will continue to say those things, thinking that people will always give ear to their obsessive rants and what they believe are very strong and "logical" arguments, that Islam permits rape, or forced marriage! Or the many other insults they hurl at Muslims daily on the internet or other forums of "free speech"!
The Ex Muslims of North America comes to mind. Please see my videos exposing the EXMNA, to know more!
Let the courts decide, I say. As we see, Muslims like the judges in Pakistan are quite capable of independent thought, and also mercy. If anything has come out of Asia Bibi's long ordeal, it isn't that Christians are victims of Islamic fundamentalists, because Muslims are also the victims of hate every day, but that some Christians are extremists! They even enjoy suffering for their religion, apparently!
Most Muslims are not evil monsters and misogynistic haters, who a minority of youtubers with their freespeech want banned from their countries, or to change, sometimes by force - such as when they demand us to change what the Quran teaches, which would mean changing the book of Allah (which is a thought/hate crime in our view).
They know they have tried, Islam has already been challenged many times, different sects popped up, and with disastrous and violent results.
It's only 'true' Islam that can stop violence and hate.
The Muslims who react violently are not the example of independent thought and mercy, but they are mobs of angry protestors and sometimes extremely violent reactionaries.
They may even kill in the name of Islam, but they are not sanctioned to do that by God!
It is up to the mullahs/imams/scholars now to preside over their own flocks and tell them what's what. Muslims for the most part will not listen to non Muslims, "the infidels", or to the people who obviously hate Islam anyway!
They need to learn Islam at the feet of their own respected teachers. Believers who will explain why violence is not a way! Islam is the middle way.
But we know that banning Islam is not going to work. Islam is not going to change to appease Islam's enemies. Those ppl who do not understand true Islam have no right to tell Muslims that Islam must change.
Like a drug addict or anyone who is 'different' or has different 'needs', Christians in Muslim societies may also find themselves feeling 'frustrated' or even 'angry' about Islam.
They are at odds with some of the societal norms, culture or religious teachings. That's life, though, isn't it, for all of us. Nowhere do all the people in society feel they are given a fair shake, or perhaps equal rights.
But those feelings do not entitle them to anything!
The fact that some people feel constrained by the system or society where they live, doesn't mean they are right to do or say what they do.
Asia Bibi is, in fact, an extremist herself. Once we realize this, the context of her 'free speech' is understood better. It is the context that is then blamed for her plight, instead of her own outward and obvious hate and religious fanaticism! Yes, Pakistan is a Muslim majority country, yes it has Sharia laws, and scholars judged her according to her vile speech, which is not freedom!
She was the cause of her own problems, when she blurted out unnecessary and wrong things, which are just her fanciful claims. Whatever hate she harbours towards Islam and Prophet Muhammad, who is not here to defend himself against vile accusations, those things we are always coming up against.
(I do not even want to know what she said, but I can imagine a few things which we are always hearing in the "conversations" online).
Ironically, Muslims are told by Apostates that we can't love someone we have never met, then it also would be (according to their logic) true that someone can't hate someone they have never met!
So why the constant attacks on the person of the prophet, his morality or his character, PBUH??
Oh, because those ppl have nothing better to do with their time than hate on Islam and Prophet Muhammad. :((
Trying to have real conversations with Muslims isn't even on their list of possibilities, though they are always promoting the lie about wanting a dialogue with Muslims, lol.
We won't catch this type of bully apologizing for their behaviour online, their Muslim baiting, etc. but we will find them creating excuses for why they should continue to bait Muslims and hate on Islam.
They say they are merely 'criticizing' Islam (lol, or critiquing the Quran, etc) but what they are doing is hate propaganda, pure and simple. We know the difference between hate and criticism.
If you criticize, you want that person to perhaps reflect, but baiting Muslims is about causing anger not having a constructive conversation.
Anyway, Islam teaches us to steer clear of their 'conversations' which are hate speech. So, maybe we should ban such people and stay away from their toxic channels and videos.
Have a different view or just an opinion you'd like to share, let me know in #comments below!
Have a nice day/evening :)
