Our Problem

Yesterday after my normal teaching at Musollah, me and Marko went for a Kebab at Broadway. It was his treat. The competition goes as to who can memorise Juz Amma first will get a treat. I spent the rest of the night at his place. Marko,Reza,me and later came Hakim and Iman were discussing about the issue of Muslim now. As usual Marko will have his own point of view. The problem with Muslim now is unity. It has sort of been ingrained in us that we just cannot unite. Tribalism has occured since the time of Prophet S.A.W. Killing and hurting each other has occured since the creation of Adam. Does that mean we can't change? I believe that those are God's given examples so that we can take lesson from. They say that all the problems that occur now result from the act of Muslims themselves and of course we do not discount the fact the greed of the Western world.



Tribalism and disunity in Iraq has resulted in what Iraq has become now. We sholud learn how the Prophet unite the Ansar and the Muhajirin. The Ansar and the Muhajirin have been fighting ever since they could remember. When they accepted Islam, they were brothers that would help each other and so much so would die for each other. These are the ways of uniting people. We just don't go to people's country to offer 'help' when they do not even ask for the help. In the name of justice, they invaded the country in order to so-called rescue the people from a tyrannical regime. More damaged was done.

Being in a non Muslim country somehow makes me feel more prone to know about my own religion. May be because of the environment that I am in. I know a lot of Sheiks here and I believe their way of communicating the idea of Islam is better simply because they are more outspoken. When you are the minority, the spirit to strive is stronger.

Muslim needs to switch their mindframe now to focus on the thing that befallen upon them. The Arabs have to forget(for a while at least!)their tribalistic manner. If we hold steadfast of the true teaching of Islam, all these things can be solved not true violance. We always tend to take the only culture but not the values from the West.
