Howdy From Aussie Muslim

[fatima_bintu_islam]

Man!! I wasnt debating, Mr said

Hey, how about peace for those of us on the wrong path?

and I wasnt talking seriously, if I knew it would take this road I would have changed my tone. But since it already happened then let me explain it more seriously:

Im sure my path is the right one (thats my opinion, you dont have to adhere to it) ; and the people who chose the same religion are my brothers and sisters, while I respect others and treat them with the best of manners however I dont have feelings of love and affection towards them. I wish for them to be on the truth, thats why I explain it to them: if they accept, they'll become from my bros and sis, if they dont it will sadden me a bit that they wont taste the sweetness of faith but I wont make a big deal from it.

To sum up, who wants peace (Islam in my opinion) will have it. Those who refuse it, then I dont see a reason why I should say: Peace be upon those who follow the wrong path.EDITunless they say it, then read the PS)

And for those who felt confused, then I think its because you may have chosen the wrong place to start a debate.


PS; if a non muslim tells you peace be upon you, a muslim is supposed to answer back:"and on you too"

I just had questions....no debating, no problem.
PBUA (Peace be upon all.)

Oh no, I wasnt adressing you; I just didnt know you were asking seriously thats all I have no problem with the debate at all (you just have to warn me lol). I was adressing the others.

PBUA (Peace be upon all.)

And on you too ùsmileù

fatima,

This one ?

No sister, I've never been to that site, and in fact the link is broken for me.

Revoltingest,

We need peace too.

Peace comes through following right guidance. So I have given peace to you, possibly in the future, when you embrace right guidance, by the will of God.

I won't press this too much, but I'm still confused. Is the wishing of peace actually the wishing that I
become a Muslim, ie, the only path to peace of the soul? I take no offense....just trying to understand.

Yes true peace can only be attained through submission to the commands of the one true God, or Islam in Arabic, a word which itself is derived ultimately from the primitive Semitic root meaning peace (salam).

You may well have a different concept of peace to us, and that's probably the cause of your confusion.

I'm just generally in a state of confusion & ignorance, trying to figure it all out.
That's my path. Lame it is, but it works for me.

Shalom, and Welcome to RF!

 

[Abu Rashid]

Shalom Zardoz, or as Moses (pbuh) would've said "Salaam", prior to Hebrew's modifications of the original Semitic word for peace.
