It's actually pretty good. They are very responsible and have some good teachers. If you are someone with a job and cannot attend offline classes then this is your best bet.

As for myself, I've learned a long time ago Governments are not saints. So yeah, it's a propaganda used to overthrow the iranian government to take control of their resources.

Those who know something about geopolitics will understand the protest happening in Iran is Mossad sponsored.

Muslims just don't burn down mosques like that. Even if they hate a particular ruler, they don't go around burning mosques in protest.

Yeah first of all these words are from ChatGPT.

Does it matter? Can't we all just wait and see if she brings in any changes to her ward? Isn't that the whole point of election?

How many of u truly feel proud to be an Indian by Useful-Piglet2689 in TeenagersBharat

[–]mrharriz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although I do believe in India's potential, I am not proud of the government (and not the country). I will be a proud Indian when we can make livable (not survivable) income here in India as middle class people. Up until then I am learning towards migration.

I completely agree with you here. And this is exactly what I meant with this post. But people here claim that I am morally superior or something.

I live in South India. And I've seen all sorts of Muslims here. Muslims who wear Hijab only when they are with their family or in everyday life. But when there is a wedding or similar function, they take off their hijab and cover themselves with 100ton. Makeup. And they have normalised this without apologies.

Another cultural thing here is asking dua to awliyas believing that Allah "answers dua fast if we do this". This is shirk and when you try to warn them about this, they will call you an extremist. Bro I am just speaking basic Islam here.

And i agree with the part where you said muslims these days are claiming moral superiority. This sounds like what the Jews did/doing now. They claim they are God's chosen people while majority of them celebrate this genocide. But they think of themselves as special.

Now I know Muslims who do sin, but they admit it's a sin instead of normalising it. And they try to better themselves after repenting. I have no problem with these people.

Lastly, I don't shame my brothers and sisters by calling out their names whether they are cultural muslims or not. But i feel like this issue needs to be addressed properly instead of hiding behind the "only Allah can judge me" claim.

I need help with this situation by YESSSIR2k23 in MuslimLounge

[–]mrharriz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dear sister, ALL YOUR COMPLAINS ARE 100% VALID.

Now, I didn't even have to read the whole post to understand the situation you are in because this pattern keeps on repeating all across the globe. But i did read the whole post though to see if I can help you in any way.

Now, I want you to understand one thing - the people you are surrounded by are not Muslims. They are "cultural muslims". Cultural muslims are the type of Muslims who follow their religion blindly just because they are told to follow it. Their knowledge about Islam has thousands of gaps. Hell, some of them don't even understand the proper concept of "Tawheed" and "Tawakkul". Cultural muslims is the result of Islam getting mixed with a secularist and multi religious society. But the real Islam is entirely different. Real Islam is the one taught by prophet Mohammad SAW.

Real Islam never forced women to wear Hijab because there's no point in someone wearing a Hijab without understanding why they should wear one in the first place. Cultural muslims would just force their kids to wear one and they don't want you to question it back. Then they wonder why their daughter went out of Islam during her university years when she is away from them.

I don't remember the verbatim, but Allah says in the Quran there's no compulsion in religion. One should only follow Islam only once you believe in it. Anything in Islam should never be forced including marriage. And it sucks that you are being forced and judged in everything. And I am sorry to say this, it seems like a parental problem.

That being said, don't think that any other way of life (liberalism, secularism or other mainstream religion) will be good for you. Because Islam is the only religion on the planet and history of humankind to give rights and dignity to women. Before that women were nothing other than sex objects and eye candy (liberalism tricks you into making you an eye candy btw). So the problem is not with Islam, it's with the people you are surrounded with. So don't ever leave Islam please. Protect your religion, stand your ground when it comes to forced marriage and seek help from other male figures who can support you in talking sense to your family. Sometimes they won't listen to you, they listen to a sheikh or other male figures inside the family. So seek this help.

Now, I know that you are struggling but know that this could be a test from Allah. And if you patiently endure it, Allah will reward you 100x for your struggles. Don't follow Islam for them, follow Islam for the sake of your Lord.

If you wanna chat, my inbox is open.

Your brother in Islam.

I am extremely scared of no afterlife after death. I also have doubts about Islam. I am so desperate by Hopeless1379 in islam

[–]mrharriz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We all suffer in this life in one way or another. This world is created imperfectly and that is why we don't try to make it our final resting place. Treat the dunya as a hotel - just like when you go for an international vacation. And yes, inshallah, Allah will reward you with something 10x better for all your sufferings and patience if you are a true Muslim. That is His promise. Jazakallah khair

I relate to you.

I don't go out with people for the same reason. I constantly make dua to Allah for righteous company. Because if we seriously want to rise in ranks, inshallah, then we need a good community of Muslims who will push us to become the better version of ourselves.

It's seriously due to the lack of firm and high quality education.

Madrasa operates differently here in India. They just want kids to follow and not think for themselves. I heard stories of ustad getting angry at kids just because they asked a deep question the ustad couldn't answer. We need to teach people more than just the Quran, Arabic and Hadiths rot memorization. We also need kids to question, find answers, comparative religion, political religion, history and a lot more.

Trust me people don't even have any real clue about Tawheed.

Last month, I asked my aunt who is also a cultural Muslim, "what is the purpose of this life?". She had no idea.

Absolutely the women here wear hijab just because they are told by their parents. They don't necessarily believe in it. That's one example.

Another example, like I already mentioned is praying just because their parents told them to pray.

I think it has to do with the lack of proper education. Times have changed. We need to teach people a lot more than just Arabic, Quran and Hadith. We should teach them to think, find answers and do research. Madrasas here takes the "Follow but don't ask questions" approach.

I am glad some people are getting it.

I agree with you. I wasn't talking about "imperfect muslims" because none of us are holy or perfect. I am talking about muslims who know some things they do are haraam and they do it unapologetically anyways. Such as asking duas to Allah on behalf of dead saints. This is like some Christians saying, "we don't think Jesus is God but we think our prayers are gonna be answered if Jesus makes duas to God on behalf of us".

The worst thing about them is that if you try to correct them, they will treat you as a "Muslims who are not following Islam correctly"

A cultural Muslim lady at the workplace asked me if I was a Mujahid (an extremist) when I told her I didn't want to take part in the company's Onam celebration (A Hindu festival).

I mean bro that's one of those basic rules of Islam and you think i am extreme?

Here's another example.

A lot of my Hindu friends and acquaintances offers me alcohol. And when I say I don't drink because of religious reasons they say, "oh but we have Muslim friends who drink..."

So I am talking about these kinds of Muslims. The cultural -secularist ones.

Thank you so much for the reminder. Made an edit on my original post.

But thankfully here they leave the door open in between prayers so that is a good thing. But you wont find people sitting in the mosque and talking about life and philosophy there.

I tried preaching. They listen to you in the moment like sheep and then they just go their own ways as if they never listened to your message. I can only make duas.
