I Have Been Muslim For 2Years Now. In Those Two Years, I Have Seen A lot of Things That Disgusts Me Big Time. Here Are Couple Examples:
1) That There Is No Unity Among Muslims Whatsoever. I Have Come Across With a lot of Arab Muslims Who are Arabists Big Time. The Mosque I Go to Has Plenty of Those (I Have Come Across With Few of Them). Example..Some Lady Told Her Friends in Arabic That Me and Another Latina Muslimah..."And They Swear They are Arabs." I'm Not Saying All Arabs Are Like That. I Remember On a Jumma Day, The Shiek That Was Giving a Speech, In His Speech, He Asked..."¿How Many of You Muslims Would Pray at a Pakistian or How Many Pakistinians would Pray in an Arab Mosque?"..
Also, Last year I Used 2Chat on Msn with Random People, Well One Day I Was Chatting With a Pakistinian Muslim. Out of Nowwhere, he Starts Talking Bad About Arab Muslims And Arabs in General. I Ask Him Why Was He Saying that. He Said "Here in England, A lot of These Arab Muslims Don't Like To Pray With Non-Arab Muslims At All." I Told him That He Can't Judge Everyone and I Told Him How My Dearest Husband Prays With Everyone And He Don't Care Where They Are From. All He Said, "One out of a Few." I also Told Him, Not All Arabs Are the Same. I Know Plenty That Are Really Kind Hearted And Awsome.
Arab Muslims Aren't The Only Ones Who Look Down At Other Muslims, But I Notice Pakistinian Muslims Too. A lot of My Mates Say The Same. I Remember Going to a Napoleon Outlaw Lecture, There Were a lot of Pakistinian Muslims. A lot of Those Muslimahs Were Giving Me and My Mates All kind of Looks. We Were Like Whatever.
"An Arab has no Superiorty over a non-Arab nor a non-Arab over an Arab and a white person has no Superiorty over a black person, nor a black person over a white person-except by piety and good actions."-Muhammad (sw).
Qur'an 49:13: O men! Behold, We have created you all out of a male and a female, have made you into nations and tribes. so that you might come to know one another...>Asad(49,16)..> Verily, the noblest of you in the sight of God is the one who is most deeply conscious of Him. Behold, God is all-knowing, all-aware.
This Issue Upsets Me. This Ummah Consists of all Colors. Islam is Color Blind. When I Talk With Non-Muslims and When This Issue is Bring Bought up, I Tell Them, There is No Racism in Islam But there Are Racist Muslims.
In My Personal Opinion, The Most Friendliest Muslims Are The Black Muslims and Any Reverts. But Black Muslims Are The Most Kind Hearted People I Have Come Across. Their Iman is So High And Not To Mention Spiritual.
2) There Are a lot of Extremist! My Dearest Brothers And Sisters, We Must Remain Pious!!! We Can't Let Our Anger Get Between Our Faith And Reltionship With The Almighty. I Know I am The Least Person To Talk, But We All Need to Learn How To Be Patience and Tolerent. We Shouldn't React Violently When The Kuffrs Start Acting Up (Danish Cartoons and Pope Stupid Remarks..To name a Few). All we Can Do Is Act in a Peaceful Way such as Protesting Peacefully Or Simply Ignore It. Actions Like This Will Always Come and Go. I Have Read Stories of Muslims Setting Houses in Fire To Some of The Danish Cartoonists. Should We Act this Way? Noooo.
Qur'an 2:153: O YOU who have attained to faith! Seek aid in steadfast Paitence and prayer: for, behold, God is with those who are patient in adversity.
Qur'an 2:104: YOU who have attained to faith! Do not say [to the Prophet], "Listen to us," but rather say, "Have Paitence with us," and hearken [unto him], since grievous suffering awaits those who deny the truth.
The Most Religious Person Never Lets Anger Get Them, But Remain Paitence. We Humans Lack Paitence.
Also, Some Muslims Need To Stop Attacking Shia Muslims (And Vice Versa) And People of The Book By Calling Them Kaffirs. Don't Get Me Wrong, I Don't Agree With The Shia Teachings Because it Has a lot of Bidahs Same With People of The Book. But I Still Respect Them. Here Is What I Think and Believe, Instead of Calling Them Out, How About Guide Them, Give them Dawah? Remember People, Allah (swt) is The One Who is Going To Judge Everyone On Day of Judgement!
I Remember in One of the Islamic Groups I Am In. Somebody Posted a Thread To Help And Donate Money to a Synagogue That Got Burn. One Salafi in There Said "Why Bother Helping The Misguided." My First Thoughts Were.."What The F----K..Jews Are People of The Book. In This Life We Must Do Charity And Help mankind Whether he Is a Muslim, Jew or a Christian or an Athesit, Hindu and Etc....We Can't Be Extremist!!!. The Prophet (Phuh) Said.."We Shouldn't Be Extreme or Lean Towards The Easy Side, But be in Between. Let's Not Forget Rasulullah (Alaihi Wasallam) said "There's No Compulsion in Religion. "
Anways This is it For Now. These Are The Only Two Problems in this Ummah I Can Think of. If There Are More, Please Feel Free and Express Your Thoughts.
