[quote]brother Marwan salaam!

I appreciate your feelings and emotions. In my very limited and humble opinion, I see the problem slightly differently. I am not saying , that I am right and you are wrong , I feel the issue is slightly different.

Firstly, if Allah wanted to amke everyone a muslim, it would not be an issue.Kun Fayakoon.

Secondly, what is the purpose of this life and world. As I understand, Ibtillah i.e test. Allah has created us and given us this life to select the future population of Paradise. He has given us Divine Guidance and also we have reflection of Allah in everything around us. The test is how we use our knowledge and intellect, and achieve success in the life Hereafter.

Thirdly, Allah's sunnan, how He deals with nations. We know that Allh's success is not with name, nationality or family. But with actions and intentions.

Fourthly,One must ask, is this a coincidance that Muslims all over the world are being humilated and the non muslims are in power.Is it not with Allah's knowledge?

In my limited understanding, my dear brother, the need is for Muslims to realise their role and their purpose. The need of the day is that we look at our conduct and our behaviour. We understand and follow the true ethos of Islam.I have firm faith that if Muslims today start to practice Islam properly, The geographical and political map of this world will change.

As I see it, Allah is clearly showing to the muslims that respect and honour of the "chosen nation" will be with us only if we behave like one. Otherwise we can read the history of all previous nations. We will not go to Paradise because my name is Ibrahim, but if I perform the actions worthy of going to Paradise.

You very rightly raised the point that which country of the world at present has a true muslim state and practising muslims.

In my opinion rather than blaming USA, UK and Israel, we should look at ourselves.

The Islam that I believe in was depicted by the prophet Mohammad Pbuh, when Hazrat Yasser's family was being persecuted in Makkah, The Prophet Pbuh, did not say to them, I shall revenge you.His reply was "patience, aal i Yasser, Allah has promised Paradise". Similarly at Taaif. The Prophet Pbuh prayed for the ignorant people to have awareness, and prayed for them , hoping that in their children , there will be some God fearing believers.

In my very limited opinion. my dear brother in Islam. I feel that all the people in this world are my Allah's creations.I cannot hate my Allah's creation. Everyone according to "Ahd i Alasst" have an inborn light of Truth and Tauheed in them.It is a matter of us being right about our actions and the rest will change.

Today a muslim is like a person who never went to a medical school, never learnt or practised as a doctor, has put Dr initials in front of his name and wants to be considered and payed a doctors salary.

There is a sher in urdu, and I may not get it completely right.
Na thee haal kee apnee khabar
nazar aatey they sub ke aeb u hunar
Parhey haal pay apney nazar
to nazar meen koi buraa na rahaa.
Hazrat Umar rta and hazrat Khalid Bib Walid were not born muslims, Allah changed their hearts.When Muslims were true to their religion, in Badr One muslim was equivlant to 10 kafirs, but when muslims behave like non muslims in evrything,accept having a muslim name, then should we be dreaming of Allah's help?[/quote]
