November 01, 2023, 03:44:32 pm Zainab_M: Allahhuma ameen .. ameen.
November 01, 2023, 03:43:43 pm Ruhi_Rose: Yes .. making lots of dua everyday ..... watching those real life video clips, my face feels wet with tears all the time.  May ALLAH grant the best to these wonderful, brave & steadfast martyrs,  Ameen ya Allah.
November 01, 2023, 03:38:26 pm Zainab_M: Keep praying, praying a lot for Gaza. It's worse than a prison .. it's a concentration camp.  Children as young as 10 or 11 are having to care for their younger siblings ages 2, 3 and 4 becoz many have lost both parents.  It's a very, very, very tearful situation there.
October 26, 2023, 03:40:19 pm N. Truth Seeker: Don't forget to look up MV Blog Zainab's Lounge for our Gaza updates.
October 20, 2023, 04:24:44 pm Zainab_M: Right sister Heba.  Gaza hospital bombing has the fingerprints of Israel all over it.  For Israel this is no big crime.  They have done this and much worse many times in the past and intend to do the same and worse many more times in near future.
October 20, 2023, 04:20:20 pm Heba E. Husseyn: Catching Zionist lies isn't hard. Soon after Gaza hospital bombing killing and maiming hundreds, Israel was quick to accuse Islamic Jihad of a misfired rocket.  That didn't sound plausible because IJ does not have such sophisticated bombing devices.  Zionist lie was fully exposed when anglican archbishop of Jerusalem,Hosam Naoum,  said today that 3 or 4 days prior to boming Israel had warned Gaza hospital to evacuate. Yet CIA claims in its flawed analysis that the rocket did not come from Israel.  But conveniently does not explain how Israel could have known 4 days earlier that a "misfired" rocket from IJ was coming.  Yet on the basis of this flawed & bias analysis of CIA, Biden is comforting Israel he believes Israel didn't do that war crimes bombing.
July 29, 2023, 03:02:07 am Zainab_M: Yesterday was Ashura, Muharram 10, 1444 (July 27, 2023).  Read about this very tragic day and details of the world's greatest 7th century revolutionary: WHO WAS HUSSEIN.
June 28, 2023, 09:48:39 am Zainab_M: Walaikum As Salaam.  This was the first Hajj open to all after the pandemic. It was attended by 2.6 million Muslims.

Amazing thread ..  Smiley  sounds just spot on.   The discussion group at our Islamic community center had a lengthy discussion on this last week.  It wasn't a chosen agenda but the topic somehow just arose, don't recall how.  Just my cousin and me against 8 Hadithists at the table Cheesy   So you can imagine the pandemonium.  Though very calmly and amicably, we made our point clear.  They kept refuting but from the inside they felt sheepish .. was showing on their faces  Grin

Here is what we told them.  Hadithists hold a core traditional belief taught to them since childhood by their elders, based on social customs and old traditions.  That core belief becomes very strong by the time they reach adulthood and is ignorantly connected with Faith.   Then, when they are presented with truthful evidence that works against that core belief by exposing its cracks and holes, that truthful evidence cannot be accepted by them.  It creates a feeling of being duped by their "spiritualists" that's often accompanied by emotional discomfort and anger on those who have exposed the faults of that core traditional belief.    Protecting that core belief becomes their life's mission.   For the sake of protecting it, they will forcibly rationalize, ignore and even deny anything that does not fit with it.  For this reason, evidences straight from the Noble Quran on the discrepancy of Hadith contents and the violation of annexing it with the Quran falls on deaf ears of the Hadithists. 

It's a condition of the mind referred to as 'cognitive dissonance' or a kind of mental discomfort or mental irritation caused by conflicting values.  In a state of dissonance, people experience surprise, dread, guilt, anger or embarrassment.  It is a result of being inclined toward a certain decision even though the evidence against it distinctly appears more truthful and suitable.  A simple practical example of this would be the conflict in a smoker's mind between wanting to smoke and knowing that smoking is unhealthy.  The truth about the harmful affects of smoking keeps flashing into the smoker's mind, dissuading him from smoking.  But the desire to smoke getting the better of him, forces him to shut his mind to the truth and instead focus on the temporary pleasures of smoking.   Another interesting example - the children's story "Fox and the Grapes."  When the fox fails to jump high enough to reach the grapes on the branch of the tree, he decides he does not want them after all.   Similarly, even if the Hadithists perceive the violations of the Hadith and its total incompatibility with the Noble Quran, they are unable to abandon that core traditional belief instilled in their minds since childhood by their elders and teachers.  Subsequently, they secretly experience emotional discomfort involving anger, fear and disappointment.  To overcome this discomfort they forcibly dispel the truthful evidences that expose the faults of that core traditional belief - the Hadith.
