Neturei Karta International (Jews United Against Zionism)
There is a site I believe many Moslems should check out. It gives an insight to the reality of a fraction of the Jews in the world. A positive one actually, or so I see it, http://www.netureikarta.org/
I learned by time not to judge people according to their beliefs. Belief is one's own relationship with God. But what I also learned is we have a duty in life, and that is to be informative and to spread the word of God in the best manner possible. Being informative without mixing up between basic rules and orders in religion and our own personal opinions.
We need to speak of things we understand and have strong basis for, rather than saying things from our own points of views. That is, where religion is concerned. Religions have their respect.
When I was young I had apathy towards Jews in general. I hated "them" for what was happening in Palestine. I did not differentiate between Jews and Zionists. When I did, I felt I was not being fair in my generalization in this aspect in particular.
Some time back, about a year and a half, I also watched an interview of an authentic and active Jewish Rabbi (if i recal properly) called David Wise. I was quite thrilled to know that he and many more authentic Jews shared and agreed to the belief that Palestine is not for the Jews. It belongs to Palestinians.
His exact words were" Israel dawla ded Allah" Israel is a state against the will of God.
In all cases, never mind what I think now, I'd like whoever reads this to check out this site out.

Doshar,
Any time. I felt it was good for us all to know and share the knowlege for purposes of understanding and giving up the generalizations we all fall prey to.
It is a serious problem amongst many people.
I hear things like" WE hate America, We hate Jews, We hate Saudis, WE hate el 3arab! (even though we are Arabs ourself if u think of it, lol) etc etc.. "They" are bad... Why the blind generalization? I never liked or accepted it, and don't believe i will ever!
Yes Thank God for not being wrongly judgemental. Thank God for being open to change to the better. thank God for being tolerent of other people and Religions. Thank God for being amongst those capable of being open minded and not wanting to generalize. Thank God for ne3met el Quraan and Prophet Muhammed, for they taught us well.
By the way ya free soul, when u say old ideas, i reckon u are not referring to the very olden times, because at the Time of the Prophet and the Khulafaa, the moslems were living peacefully with the Christians and Jews and whatever other belifs there were. Moslems were always encouraged to live in peace with others.
I met some jews in Sinai. They love it so much but were against its occupation and the occupation of Palestine. They want to live and let others live, and i believe those who are sensible enough which i am sure there are many also share the same view. Like any other religion, Brain wash plays an important role. They too have that. They are human just like any one else, have their positive sides, and negative. But truely it is this Zionist idea that is destroying those who fall for it. Rabena yehdy banu Adam to the truth. ameen.
you see, i never mean that our religion ever had those wrong ideas, it is something we inhirited from the previous generations, unfortunatley, few decades after the time of the prophet and kholafaa2, ideas changed to a very bad idea on how to treat others and even how to treat your own people, those ideas are the ones inhirited and those ideas are basically the ideas islam was found to attack
I was reading recently in the history of islamic world, I was shocked by the cruel things that started to happen shortly after the best islamic days in the first say 100 years, this cruelty is not a character of islam but a character of a historical period that started shortly after islamic rise and led to the distruction of the great nation we had :(
as you said, al hamd lelah that we have the ablility to uniquely identify each one and don't give general judgements on people, rabena yehdy el gamee3 to a way out of the current madness happenning in this world
Free soul,
Believe me, I understood u clearly, and that is why i wrote "reckon". I didn't have doubts about what u meant to say.
The historcal events after the Prophet and the Khulafaa were a result of abandoing the essences of the Quraan and Prophet Muhammed's (Allahoma Saly 3aleih) teachings. Islam is Islam and will stay so insha'Allah. It is a terrible battle between mankind's weak self (al nafs al 2amara bel sou2) and Satan. Unfortunately many people are giving in to the aforementiond. Their loss i guess, but brings sadness to my heart.
Islam is truely a beautiful religion. If we all try to stick to it's teachings especially those concerned with the Mo3amalat, Wallahi this world would be a peaceful place to live in.
I pray Allah helps us to keep Iman in our hearts. Avoiding greed and passion for worldly needs is a terrible thing to fall for. We should all live life and all, but why not consider others? What is so difficult about that?
After Prophet Muhammed (Allahoma Saly 3aleih) died, Abu Bakr Radya Allaho 3anh said something very important. He said, those of u who worshipped Muhammed, Muhammed is dead, But Allah does not die.
No one worshipped Prophet Muhammed, but loved him to a great extent (who wouldn't?). Abu Bakr Rady Allaho 3anh was wise saying so, for purposes of spreading strength and telling people that Allah is and will always be watching us. Seems for some reason some people neglected these words of wisdom. The world we are living in now is the result. Sad isn't it? But I still insist, there are bright sides al hamd lillah. I tend to want to keep my chin up high. Insha'Allah things will be better.
Allah is the all seer, the all knowing.
you are right, that happened because they left the most important order of qur'aan, which is mercy!! they created a no mercy life!!
keep the faith that there is a brigh side until you see it, I kept on saying there is hope, but recently, I got a job in a company, let me tell you what I saw there !!
First of all, in the prayer time, the whole company leaves the PCs and moves to the hall, we all pray together beside each other, managers beside the new junior employees, the relationships between us are much stronger, we go every week to play football together, also with the managers who are the first to pariticpate in such a thing, we make meetings in each month to discuss our problems and how to develop the company, we make periodic sessions in any topic that someone find himself qualified at and can help the others
beside all that, every employee have a mentor of the managers that is responsible to guide him through any problems in life
I can't describe more but in brief, this is a family, a real one and you really never get orders from someone, we are all working together in one big team all aiming for the best of the job done, I started to have more confience since i got that job that there is still hope to change the hearts of people and make them understand that we are finally all humans and all equal, the good of mankind is what matters only
You cannot imagine how thrilled i was reading what u wrote about the company you are working at. MASHA'ALLAH, Ya rab wa7ad el moslemeen always. Begad i am so happy for u free soul. WE akeed sa7eb el sherka di is a good person for all this to take place. Prayer time is essential during a working day. Every thing must wait for prayers and not the opposite as is in many other work places. In Saudi Arabia it is a must to abandon everything for prayers. Otherwise people get in trouble by the hay2et el ma3rouf wal nahy 3an el monkar.
I pray some day all the companies do that. Wallahi our country will become more prosperous if all people work under good conditions and that is the sole pupose of God's commands in the Quraan and Prophet Muhammed's (Allahom Saly 3aleih) teachings.
Enta rabena karamak bel wazeefa di, we rabena yethabetak ya rab. :-) (you made my day today! :D
What is that ? free soul ,, you seem to be really lucky mashaaAllah in your company , i wish if i can have the same
when i first entered my work , we had the same environment , we used to pray gama3a and all together and make together outings in the weekends , but that later changed:( and actually now i am looking for another
Thanks sooo much for the great work.
I also try to remind people that we have nothing against Jews, we're only against Zionists!
Peace,
