Sayang

Saturday, January 24, 2009

i just read a blog of a self-proclaimed muslim adibah ahmed. must be the "cousin" of adibah ahmad. and what a coincidence, she's a blogger since dec 08, the month adibah ahmad's blog was closed. family legacy huh.
anyway, one of the many offensive things she (if it really is a she and a muslim) mentions in her blog is about our beloved prophet Muhammad. just thought maybe i could share something i found interesting a few sisters told me before. but, let me quote what adibah ahmed said prior to that:

"As muslims we always knew the prophet married Ayesha(ra) when she was only 6. Yet we turned blind eye to it, never admitted it was pedophilia (an abnormal condition in which an adult has a sexual desire for children)".

ok, lets get this straight. first, you clearly have a problem. big time!
second, im not the best person to talk about this, but just want to share. if i put anything wrongly, please please correct me.
so, here goes. as what all of us have been told, be it by words of mouth or printed materials -before Islam bloomed, the prevalent social practices among the arabs were to worship idols, bury their daughters alive, fight among tribes, etc, etc. so the unbelievers despised our prophet coz they refused to give up all those jahil things just for ONE GOD (started when the messenger called for syahadah on bukit safa). he (nabi saw) denied to comform to their societal norms, turning down all offers of power and women from the arabs.

and, history doesnt tell us that they were against the prophet coz he was married to an underaged girl, does it? no rite? so it implies that it was something normal and acceptable in their culture during that particular jahiliyah period. they called the prophet a poet, crazy man, wizard, etc. but rapist? no. only you, and people like you adibah ahmed allege him as a rapist and a pedophile. now are we muslims blind?

and as for us muslims, that includes me, i think it may be wise not to snap at these kinds of people back with vulgar words coz it wont change anything and it doesnt prove our love for the prophet. those would just be an extra point for them to question and argue what Islam teaches us. action speaks louder than words honeys.

instead, maybe we (especially me) should start living up to the sunnah. (wake up call for me! dush dush!) at the least, we should try to contribute something for the ummah. Allah promises that Islam will prevail eventually, it's our choice whether to help Islam to achieve that or not. that's a reminder for me as well coz i know i myself have a lot to reflect back. A LOT. L-O-T. like DOUBLE LOT!

"sampaikanlah pesananku walaupun satu ayat" (sabda nabi saw)

p/s dont pass your blind judgement on Islam. if we really are terrorists, i wonder if hitler was a muslim? and oh, the ethnic cleansing in palestine, that's totally done by muslims, not zionists? too funny i forgot to laugh.
