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.

Quote from Ruhi_Rose
"Does he know that Shiia Islam has been banned in Malaysia"?
Assalam alaikum sister
Are Shiias within the orbit of Islam? Kindly enlighten me because when I approached the Imam of our Masjid to pronounce the Nikah of my cousin with a Shiia girl,he simply refused and said "Shias are not Muslims" I did not argue with him due to lack of my knowledge and the Nikha was pronounced by a Shia Imam.
Thanks

Walaikum As-Salaam brother Abbotonian.  This Shiia / Sunni hostility has been going on for long.  I do admit that various things the Shiias uphold are unIslamic just the same way as several things the Sunnis uphold are unIslamic too.  They both deride each other yet both commit violations through man-made laws, fabrications, crazy fatwas etc.  It's the usual story, nothing  that we don't already know about them.  Both have deviated from the Quran, there are no doubts about that.  However, inciting sectarianism is a terrible approach.  Officially Shiias are just as much Muslims as Sunnis.  Therefore I would say that it was wrong of that imam to refuse reading the nikah.  Such belligerence only deepens sectarian divide, and as a result of that we can see what has happened to our Ummah worldwide.  It's just getting worse with time.  In the days of our parents and grandparents, Sunni/Shiia marriages were very common.  And it was totally unheard of that the imam would refuse to preside over the nikah ceremony of a Shiia/Sunni marriage.

You also did well by not arguing with him.  I would advise you never to argue with these people.  They aren't educated folks and it's impossible to communicate with them.  The fact that the Shiia imam pronounced the nikah does obviously prove that in this case the Shiia imam was more tolerant and civilized than the Sunni imam. 

What Sister Ruhi apparently meant was that sectarianism in predominantly Sunni Malaysia has gone so far that it has banned Shiia Islam altogether.  This is a very extreme decision.  Like I said, Shiias have made just as many mistakes as the Sunnis have, therefore the Sunnis have no right to take such steps.  Moreover, such decisions disrupt the harmony of a cordial Muslim society and shatter its unity, creating bad relations and resulting in an uptight atmosphere that never lead to success.  As the saying goes, 'united we rise and divided we fall.'  No wonder our non-Muslim enemies are so happy to see us fight. 

May Allah guide this Ummah.  Their first mistake is to drift away from the Quran.  And their second mistake is to spread the sectarian culture.

As we always uphold, Muslims are just Muslims.   No matter who calls themselves Sunni or Shiia, I simply look upon both as our Muslim brethren.  Whatever mistakes they are making, Allah will Judge them on the Day of Resurrection, just as He will Judge everyone on that Day.  Guiding them is not my responsibility.  My responsibility is not to become a party to their practices, and to follow the guidance for the benefit of my soul.  If someone asks for my advise, then I will tell them what I perceive as right and true.
