Dears,
So this was the point which I wanted to bring to the attention of all. I am thankful to Shoaib for highlighting it.
Forebearance is the only solution for Muslims to make a change. There is no other way out.
Changing one's ownself is a very good concept but it has never served the purpose on this very topic. Every one feels he is on right path and feels his-self to be corrected. This also gives rise to the feeling that others are not corrected. Ultimately this again lead to creation of sects instead of reducing it.
Therefore, the only way out is to bear the belief and faith of others. We should concentrate on what we do instead of concentrating about what they do. This has nothing to do with correctness of our deeds or others deeds. The aim is to keep the things intact. Any one's actions, as per his faith and belief, should not affect us and should not lead to so-called " MAJROOH JAZBAAT" which is a very normal feature of our "sensitive" society. Let the people do what they are doing. Only leave the message with others politely without discussing their own faith, if we feel it appropriate (this should also not be felt bad by us or by others) and just don't become the leaseholder of their faith. That's it.
I am not referring it to our case of religious bifurcation, but as an example we can see that in advanced and peaceful countries what not and what not people do even on roads. Even the most immoral things. But this does not affect the others so far as it does not affect them directly. This way they maintain their peace and no issues arise there. I am not talking about such immoral things but as far as religious beliefs and faiths are concerned this is a matter between human and God. Why we feel affected by the faiths of others? Should we do even when our HOLY BOOK says that there is no compulsion or forcibility in religion?
I don't have much religious knowledge but I can openly say that until and unless we bring this change and opt to ignore the things which don't affect us, we cannot change the situation. We cannot be called a followable nation.
Yes, if we don't do this due to whatever reasons, we will never be a peaceful nation.
Regards,
KAMRAN.
