It shocks me how the Quran is mis interpreted, like the misuse of the Torah shocks you, and it shocks many many other Muslims how these individuals with clear mental issues do what they do.
I live amongst and interact with the everyday Muslims as a way of my life. These Muslims are 1st, 2nd and 3rd generational Muslims with lives and families set up in this country to live by and abide by the laws. We contribute to the community and we are law abiding with those amongst us who break laws rightly dealt with by the laws of the land.
Some idiot gets asylum or got on a boat...neither by my help or by the help of any other Muslim to my knowledge. Probably escaping from a country pillaged by the West...been here a few years, happens to be a Muslim and causes atrocities now we all have to make a speech condemning them and getting insecure about our faith?
We don't have one central leader or anything like that. We live our Islam with our families and extended communities...it is a way of life not a club with a leader. We as collective communities and individuals are not here to be made to feel like we must make a mass speech condemning due to common ground of sharing a faith. Which some clearly don't live by to it's true meanings, that's a human thing. Every time someone claiming to be Muslim farts in a room isn't because the Quran said it, it's because they don't know how to control their own arsehole.
Muslim or not the law can deal with the law breakers just like the non Muslims don't have to make some collective speech, nor do Muslims as far as I'm concerned.
In the meantime most Fridays we have sermons aimed at how to improve our lives as individuals and a collective...how to contribute to society through our teachings and to enjoin good. Most of us are not morons who need to prove that we all don't harbour these stabby thoughts as soon as someone has a meltdown. Plus, if any of you are ever interested then feel free to visit mosques and sit in on the sermons and do your due diligence on your insecurities and suspicions, no appointments needed, just go and do it.
Me, born and raised in England...been here 50 years and know 100's of generational Muslims here...not 1 single one has ever been in bother for anything terrorist related. So the likes of myself don't give a **** and don't believe we should, every time some random who's gone on a stabby spree or such like, have to make some special condemnation. I think it's disingenuous to suggest that these individuals are empowered by the silence of the rest of us etc like that is going to turn their thoughts. Like I've said here time and time again through the years...do you or others think that these people are sat at home with family or in the coffee shops and mosques whilst discussing their plans? Criminal and mentally disturbed minds don't do that. You think the whole community is in on it when someone is about to have a stabby meltdown?
Every time a Muslim commits a crime in a Muslim country there's a reason why we don't all have to give a collective apology like a bunch of melts it's because the error of their way is on the individual...just like when some Brits get caught trying to smuggle drugs and gets the death penalty in Thailand. You don't hear anyone saying, now please can the rest of you condemn this, especially if you are of an Athiestic belief like the perpetrators.
How many Muslims do any of you know enough to have had any normal conversations with in order to learn about them and their every day thinking?
Me, as a Muslim got no time for special speeches condemning Somalian Sucky's every time they have a violent meltdown.
Catch em, jail em, deport them, get on with it and do a better job of vetting them in the first place... leave the rest of us the **** alone.
Anyway
Morning prayers done
Glory be to Allah
back to bed
