Man with a bat tries to rob a store in NY, but he changed his mind.......
While watching this very video, a myriad of thoughts and ideas flooded and overwhelmed my brains dam. Islam doesn’t need big words or long discussions to unveil its greatness, sometimes a simple honest kind word or action saves lots of speeches. This man for example, with his modest knowledge about Islam did what maybe tens of our imams didn’t.
I remember when I watched in Al-Jazeera a show about Muslims in Malaysia and how do they behave. I was astonished by the answer of one of the folks out there. He said: “we don’t know Islam as much as Arabs do, but we apply what we do know”! I halted, and said to myself, how many Islamic books have I read before –Hundreds since I passed from the illiterates to literates’ zone- and didn’t apply what were in? I guess it won’t surpass a 1/10 at the best. This is our problem as Arab Muslims, we are just like the cock that knows the prayers’ time and doesn’t pray…

ReplyDeletei think the solution is to learn more about our Islam by making more '3ibadat' then the simple honest kind word or action that you talk about it came spontaneously.
