Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajiun ("Surely we belong to Allah (God Almighty) and to Him shall we return")

I didn't even know who Sheikh Salim is. And we don't know who killed him for what reason!

But keep in mind that ONE DAY, each one of us will die. Even you and Me, just like sheikh Salim.

Whatever Allah gives or takes belongs to Him and everything is predestined by Him,

"Every soul shall have a taste of death and only on the Day of the Judgement shall you be paid your full recompense. Only those who are saved from the fire and admitted to Paradise (Jannah) will have attained the object (of life). For the life of this world is but good and chattels of deception." (Quran Surah Imran chapter 3:185)

@Alphadoti who taught you English???? @Mukiri has used a ? (question mark) meaning he questioned @Mawinder and further told him not to repay wrong for a wrong. You're accusing @Mukiri falsely on this one!!!

Sorry @mukiri, I misunderstood you (although I know you're smiling right now, because I know your heart anyway).

@Boris, you see I have always said I don't think I have to tell an objective person that a Christian is not necessarily an example of life of Christ. We see people claiming to be Christians like Kanyari and his other con pastors, yet they don't represent teachings of Jesus Christ (peace be upon him). Jesus Christ (p.b.u.h) is also a teacher of Muslims. And a Muslim therefore, is not necessarily an example of the faith that he might claim to embrace.

What I mean is that, people don't really know about Islam. They have just heard, read in the newspapers, seen on television, know only what their teacher or professor said about Islam. They only know what their neighbours or friends say or what the priest or minister of their church say.

Many people don't have what they have come to understand from basic facts, historical, scriptural facts about system of life, which is called Islam.
They only know what they have witnessed through behavior of some Muslims.

WARNING! LONG POST! BUT PLEASE READ IT!

@BB, I agree with you that there are Muslims who behave BADLY. And it is true they are those who come from Somali origin.

But do you know what I hate? I hate when people put the word MUSLIM and TERRORIST together, like they are one or something. For example what Bush says "Muslim Terrorist". That's what people think about. They don't think about Al Qaeda terrorist, or Taliban terrorist. You want think about that? Go ahead, that is true, that is what it is!

But come on, really! Not all Muslims are terrorists! Not all Terrorists are Muslims! I want those who are brainwashed to leave the Muslims alone. I wonder if they ever think about stuff? Muslims are the same as you and me, you have no idea about what they think! Many people don't know. You @boris, it is great to know you understand!

But the millions out there who don't know that everywhere you go, there are great people out there. Talk of all those good Eastleigh traders, the women all over the country trust! You won't find anybody trusting any River Road person with his money or stock. But you will find thousand of women, some old, going to shop for Christmas in Eastleigh and they can leave a whole basketful of stocks with a man in a kanzu or Muslim cap.

People should read and study. They should know what the Muslim beliefs are. They should know what they are thinking and what comes first.

The thinking is "if you hurt one man, you hurt the whole world". Does that sound like a terrorist to you? I don't think so. It also says "If you help one man, help person, you help whole the world". Does that sound like a terrorist to you? I don't think so.

People! Muslim are the same, they are like you and me. You believe in God, he believes in Allah. You pray to God, he prays to Allah. Do you know what Allah means? Allah means God. We believe the same thing, you believe in God and Muslim believes in God. What is so different about him? Tell me? The way they pray is different? So?

@Boris, you said the people of North Eastern attack people? You and you say they say Allahu Akbar! Really? I bet you cannot even name a single real one who has done that. But you remember that from 24 series! You need to be more educated than that! You need to know who is the terrorist. If you want to be mad at somebody, be mad at Al Qaeda, be mad at Taliban. Those are the real terrorists... and George Bush!

But don't be mad at me. I'm not the one who is going out there shooting people. I am not the one who is going out there planting explosives killing innocent people. I am not the one who planned 9/11 killing thousands and say it was the terrorists! I know many people know who is doing all these attacks in the whole world.

Al QAEDA and TALIBAN WERE CREATED BY U.S. IT'S U.S. WHO PLANNED & EXECUTED 9/11 BOMBING.

But those who do not understand, I know it is tough for you. I don't blame the soldiers either, it was not their choice to join the army being sent all over to kill people. Not all soldiers are out there to kill innocent. Not all of them plant explosives...

Similarly, people should leave Muslims alone, they are not bad people. They are people just like you and me. I can't repeat myself enough, I can't make you believe. But I try.

Alpha is a converted muslim.
