I've really had enough at this point. I'm tired of groups going out of their way to publicly humiliate another knowing full well its going to cause them great pain. I'm tired of sects fighting with each other, doing so much internal damage that its not a wonder that no one can fix the external damage. I'm tired of so called "clerics" of all religions making absurd rulings that do a ton of damage to the people that follow the religion; one because they are believing false things and two people from outside the religion will think that is the truth. I'm tired of culture, on both sides. I'm tired of no one taking the time to understand each other. If we all just stopped and tried to find out what the other is about all these conflicts could be on their way to finding a solution. But we can't seem to take that time to learn. To remove our
predjudice and learn. Knowledge is one of the greatest gifts God gave us. Why do we refuse to use it? Why do we not use our intellect as God intended?
Why do we spend so much time on trying to hurt each other when there are so many things we need to do in this world?! God put us here for a reason! He brought the prophets for a reason! We are here to help take care of His earth. To help Him care for it, nurture it. We are not doing that. We are destroying it by destroying ourselves.
May God have mercy on us all....we're going to need it.
Subhanallah, it makes my heart hurt too. The destruction and pain humans can cause each other is unbelievable. It honestly doesn't make sense why people are so insistent on hurting others and not trying their best to solve conflicts. The last line you wrote is very deep; without ALLAH's Great Mercy, we are all indeed in deep trouble. I think the only things we can do are to spread knowledge and love by obeying ALLAH's Commands, and praying that ALLAH has Mercy on us all and knowledge that ALLAH is the Best Provider and Judge.
