Say 'NO' to pacifism

[Zainab_M]

Salaams and peace, everyone! 


"And there is life for you in retaliation, O men of understanding, that you may ward off (evil)."  2:179  Al-Baqrah  💚Most Noble Quran💚

"Save those who believe and do good works, and remember Allah much, and vindicate themselves after they have been wronged."  26:227  Ash-Shu'ara 💚Most Noble Quran💚



The most irritating of all hypocrites are the 'goodie goodie pacifists' preaching to communities to sell their "love" at throw-away prices to those who will never pay them back substantially for it.

No matter what splendid headlines they make, beware of these selfish f***** swindlers.   Under cover of 'turning the other cheek' their hidden message to suffering humanity is "enjoy your oppression at the pleasure of your oppressors"  as if there aren't enough injustices and lopsided dealings in this planet already.

The love in our hearts is a very precious piece of gift from Allah Almighty.  It must never be sold dirt cheap to the undeserving who have no appreciation for it.  Thus, let's be careful and rational before we start distributing it, lest we end up being foolishly generous.

'Sabr' (perseverance) is advisable under circumstances that are beyond our means to control, circumstances or situations that can only be controlled by The Almighty such as weather hazards, accidents, illnesses, financial collapse etc.  But suffering in silence with all your pain and grief bottled up within yourself because of the tyrannical conduct of some other person or persons or entity is NOT what we call "sabr" in Islam.  According to Quranic principles, this would be called oppression or injustice or abuse.  It's that simple.

😀  Ahh!  Wallahi sis !!    This beautiful piece is so true that I almost started to feel intoxicated after reading it.   Really couldn't agree more.    Those shitty quotes that often circulate on email and in networking sites such as the cheat mother Teresa's "conquer with love wherever you go" and all that balderdash are so misguiding .. irritating!  And of course, I won't even talk about quacks and shitholes like Gandhi, Dalai Lama, Suu Kyi, Pope etc.  These buggers are the pioneers of violence and paid mercenaries of imperialistic governments masquerading as peace lovers (pacificists).  How terribly the human mind falls into sub-humanity when it loses its shame!

Insh'Allah, I am gonna print this and read it out to those thundering motherf***ers.   The other day, you know what that same ustada said?   "No matter how much anyone upsets you by saying rude things or cynical things or whatever, do not speak to them the same way no matter how hurt you are."  Okay, now sometimes it maybe better to ignore such sub-humans and walk away.  But always letting bullies have their way unconditionally as a policy?   Excuse me, but that's beyond me.

Absolutely, that's quality bullshit .. a recipe for oppression and hurray for the oppressors.   Tell them fair and square, those ass wipes ..
