VILIFY or NOT VILIFY

Journal Entry: Sat Jan 28, 2012, 11:48 PM



Sadly, there is one kind of people who, in order to prove they are right, they go and vilify the others. thinking that by doing so, they will stand out as 'better' or 'correct'. this way of thinking is wrong in so many levels:
first, proving the other to be wrong doesn't immediately prove that you are right. you still need to prove yourself right through evidence. if you have no idea how to prove yourself right, then don't go around trying to prove others are wrong.
second, linking 'the truth of your religion' with 'the falsehood of the others' does not help you. if you wanna prove your religion to be truth, use your religion ALONE to prove it. it your religion can't do this, then you better look for one that can.
third, vilifying the others makes them less interested to hear your opinion. if you want people to listen to you, be kind, patient and say only what represent your true religious teachings.
fourth, When you ask some people a question regarding their religious doctrine, (I said doctrine), they go all around to tell you 'Mohammed was a desert thief'!!!! I don't get how Mohammed being a thief is gonna explain religion X or Y's doctrine to be true. linking the proof of your religion with Mohammed being a bad guy is the worst argument ever any person could use. believe me there are some ignorant people who are doing so (and even making websites for that).


Every human being is a messenger. a messenger of his ideas and opinions. when he speaks or acts, he is delivering a message of what he is. know that this can be very serious and grave when someone doesn't use his gray matter very well. you could find yourself a messenger of hate instead of love. a messenger of lies instead of truth. by being such a kind of messengers (even unknowingly) you would be wronging yourself and other people around you.

If whenever you say something, it's either an insult, an attack to vilify somebody or a comment that's aimed to offend someone, then even if you claim to be a messenger of love, only hate comes from your mouth, only hate will remain in the minds of people who see you, listen to you and deal with you. if your words and statements do not represent what you believe or the message you want to deliver, then you better think twice before you express them. or keep silent better than to speak.


he, whose only way to express his opinion is vilifying people, is very pathetic and deserves pity.
we are living in a world full of darkness of hate... but there is love... it's a small light coming from a small candle. you can choose to feed that light to make it grow into a big sun, or feed the darkness and try to cover that light. but know that you'll fail if you choose the latter. as the light of love will never end. because it's fed by the light of the heavens and the Earth, who is Allah, the God Almighty.




I hope this was beneficial for you

Wassalaamu alaikum

I have heard the same thing. People want to say that Islam is a bad religion because "they worship a pedophile."

I try to clear it all up (Muslims worship God, Mohamed was not a pedophile anyway) but some people don't want to see.

you know, when people keep hearing the same things over and over since their childhood, they believe it's the truth even if it's not. and then, it's hard for them to change and believe otherwise. it's like the one who is addicted to smoking. when you tell him cigarettes are bad for his health, even if you explain to him with evidence and proof, he doesn't want to see it. people are always afraid of "change".
As for me, I am not greedy. I don't dream to change the whole world. if I can only give a little information to a single human being and they start seeing the truth, or at least, they start considering what I say, that's already enough for me to be happy. :D

Some people are equally difficult to deal with. The new wave of atheists, for example, who were raised very religiously but had a falling-out with their religion, so that religion becomes the enemy (usually all organized religion, it seems like.)

Even in the Quran it says that Christians, Jews and others are blessed if what they believe and do are still in accordance to the will of God, even if Islam is the true faith.

It saddens me that politicians here in my country try to make themselves look better by smearing their opponents.
