How true for the Lands of Islam! When the clerics themselves are busy leading a hypocritical life, how can they expect others to follow immaculate standards they have set?

Standards so high, that the likes of their own ideals will fail to meet them. Ibn Sina (dies due excessive wine and sex) and Maulana Rumi (poetry on erotica and bestiality) stand out as two of the glaring examples.

Observe what happened in Iran when Khomeini tried to tighten the moral noose. And through the following links observe that   the top questions accessed on Islamic websites pertain mostly to sexual affairs.

Conclusion: The Mullah has led exactly to what he had opposed. Paradoxical is the nature of things!

TAILPIECE:

Having spent a portion of my life around clerics, I have become quite disillusioned and cynical of everything that comes my way by tradition. I have stopped reading the Hadith for many baseless traditions destroy one's perception of Islam as a rational faith. Take for instance the following.

Did Khalifa Umar flog his son to death for drinking. i.e., 40 lashes that led to his death and the other 40 were administered on the dead body?

ANSWER: This is an unfounded and baseless incident

Conclusion: I am through with unfounded and baseless traditions.[/quote]
