RELIGIOUS EXTREMISM AMONG EDUCATED PEOPLE
(Hafiz Muhammad Noman, Karachi)
I have been noticing for many
days that a girl shares various videos of the Muslim Clerics on face book
whereas she also writes some controversial and useless points against the
clerics’ sects or doctrines as if she is a great Muslim and knows the Islam
better than all! Actually she wants to prove that she herself is on the right
path and rest of all others is going wrong!
This situation is very sensitive because when I see educated people’s comments
on the videos, I feel ashamed and pity on what kind of education they have got
when they cannot discriminate among good and bad! They actually start fighting
one another passing the comments as “you are infidel or munafiq” etc. also they
use abusive language! How ease it is to call someone an infidel today I am
greatly afraid!
Allah Almighty bestowed everybody wisdom to ponder and opt right path so, why
not they think of it?! It is useless to get education if people cannot
comprehend and identify good and bad! They should ponder deeply before
commenting on any body whether they are doing right or wrong! Sometimes it seems
that we are on right path but we are not!
It is also the responsibility of the Muslim clerics that they should not use
very harsh language or words when addressing to Public. Although the clerics’
purpose of address is to make the people understand and enlighten the real
teachings of Islam, they should never use those words that can be criticized by
people and they can take wrong perception of their teaching! Allah Almighty is
watching everything and none can deceive Him! He gave us the Holy Quran and
Ahadith! Just deliver us the real Islamic teachings and nothing more! May Allah
Almighty preserve the real Islam and confer great wit upon us to understand
Islam and spread Islamic brotherhood among us! Aameen
