A Muslim response to Bill Clinton remarks

" We appreciate Bill Clinton affirming that Muslims oppose terrorism. We do. We do. Thank you. But I do dream of a day when Muslims are mentioned outside of the context of terrorism and in the contexts that we live in daily. For example in a discussion about health care. Muslims are 1% of the US population and 10% of its doctors. That is a 1000% overrepresentation. If one had to "stereotype" Muslims based on lop-sided data, it would be that "Muslims are doctors."  By Ahmed Rehab Muslim activist

Bill Clinton's attempts to appeal to Muslims living in America, and counter what some consider xenophobic rhetoric toward them from GOP candidate Donald Trump, appears to have backfired. Let us found out why ?


Yes, Bill Clinton,we are Muslims who love America and freedom. But why is 'terror' part of this conversation?


Let us first watch this video then let the conversation begin    :


Islam4mankind invites our respected audience to look beyond stereotypes of media hype about Islam & Muslims. I personally think that Mr Bill Clinton did a fine job with the economy while he was  President. I don't think he is racist at all but for him to follow Donald Trump's racist comments is wrong. We should never generalize about people, there is the good & bad in every nation . People have the potential to do good or bad regardless of race, place of origin or religious affiliations.
Please note we are all one human family from Adam & Eve. Now, with open minds, let's pretend that instead of Christian Bill Clinton addressing Muslims, that Non Christian President, is addressing the white, Christian population at large:   

"If you are a White Christian male, and you love America and freedom and you hate killing Blacks for fun, bombing abortion clinics and plotting to kill minorities, stay here and help us win and make the future together," said Bilal Qillatoon in his 45-minute address. "We want you."


You certianly as a Christian would not like it rightfully so because it's wrong to assume that all white are as described above , not true at all . Similarly it's unacceptable to do the same to Muslims.
Now let us take into consideration these facts:

1. The First World War 17 million dead (caused by non-Muslims)
2. The Second World War 50-55 million dead (caused by non-Muslims)
3. Nagasaki atomic bombs 200,000 dead (caused by non-Muslims)
4. The war in Vietnam over 5 million dead (caused by non-Muslims)
5. The war in Bosnia / Kosovo over 500,000 dead (caused non-Muslims)
6. War in Iraq (so far) 1,200,000 deaths (caused by non-Muslims)
And the list go on ...






Islam4mankind strongly believes America is a great nation with great people. It is propaganda media that constantly creates hatred, stereotypes, promotes bigotry, divides all of us in subgroups for their corrupt evil agenda. People of all faiths should cooperate to promote love, understanding, acceptance of other people's  choice and free will to choose whatever path they wish as long as it doesn't conflict with the wellbeing  of all humanity . 

Let us be a voice for justice for all, let us be a peaceful voice of coexistence, let us not argue in vain and point the finger of suspicion at each other rather build bridges of mutual respect to make America and the whole world a better place for all mankind . May God Almighty make us peacemakers, hope givers and make us a light that overcome the darkness of racism, bigotry & hatred. 

We apologize if the facts stated above may make someone uncomfortable, it's not our objective. Please stop blaming  Islam and Muslims wrongly and unjustly. We ask our fellow Muslims to take the inituative of reconcialiatuion , our beloved American public are misinformed about Islam , it's our duty to inform and speak on our behalf rather than let propaganda media keep dividing all of us.

The danger of disrespecting your parents

The Holy Prophet (S) said. “One who displeases the parents, (it is as if) he has displeased Allah. One who angers both his parents (it is as if) he has angered Allah.” Elsewhere, it is mentioned, “One who hurts his parents, hurts me and one who hurts me has hurt Allah. And the one who hurts Allah is accursed.” Āq al-Walidayn is Not Eligible For Divine Forgiveness The wretchedness of the Āq al-Walidayn is sufficiently evident from the fact that the trustworthy Jibrīl (a.s.) has cursed him and said, “One who is blessed with parents but does not fulfill their (his parent’s) rights will not be forgiven (his sins) by Allah.” 3 When Jibrīl (a.s.) said this, the Holy Prophet (S) uttered, ‘Amen’! DONT disrespect, shout, ignore, annoy, disobey, disregard, disturb our parents. They were looking after us when we were nothing but an easy prey to anything around. They were awake during the nights to make us sleep and feel us secured. We may not remember a thing in the childhoo

Medical, Scientific and religious Reasons for not Eating Pork:

People ask me all the time, Why don't you eat pork? ...Is it for  religious reasons? ...Are you vegetarian? Are you a Muslim or a Jew  ? Do you know that pork taste good ? Honestly, just today I was even asked for sound scientific evidence affirming the danger of eating pork. I will share a few findings with you. Medical and Scientific Reasons for not Eating Pork: This is a direct quote from "What the Bible Says About Healthy Eating" by Dr. Rex Russell. He attended Baylor School of Medicine in Houston, Texas and did his residency at the Mayo Clinic at Rochester, Minnesota. Let us watch this short video , let the conversation begin: "One reason for God's rule forbidding pork is that the digestive system of a pig is completely different from that of a cow. It is similar to ours, in that the stomach is very acidic. Pigs are gluttonous, never knowing when to stop eating. Their stomach acids become diluted because of the volume of food, allowing all kind

An open letter to Jehovah Witness :

A letter to Jehovah Witness by Rachidm: Dear Jehovah’s Witnesses: I would like to share with you some biblical research based upon my discussions with Jehovah’s Witnesses friends. My wife used to be a Jehovah Witness. When we got married, I, as a  Muslim told her ; "you have the right to practice your religion". I even offered to give her a ride if needed to the Kingdom hall ( Jehovah Witness place of worship ) .  With an open mind, I supported her and told her I would never mind her practicing and preaching her religion. During our first couple years  of blessed and happy marriage together, I was privileged to engage with my parents in law (upon their request) in a comparative study between Islam and their beliefs. Although they were discouraged from dialogue since they believe their way is the only correct way, I always enjoyed a good open discussion about religion in general. My Mom in law offered me a copy of the New World Translation  (a

“And no bearer of burdens shall bear another’s burden”. (Quran 35:18)

The idea of Jesus dying on the cross is central to the Christian belief.  It represents the conviction that Jesus died for the sins of mankind.  The crucifixion of Jesus is a vital doctrine in Christianity; however Muslims reject it completely.  Before describing what Muslims believe about Jesus’ crucifixion, it may be useful to understand the Islamic reaction to the notion of original sin. When Adam and Eve ate from the forbidden tree in paradise, they were not tempted by a serpent.  It was Satan who deceived and cajoled them, whereupon they exercised their free will and made an error in judgement.  Eve does not bear the burden of this mistake alone.  Together, Adam and Eve realised their disobedience, felt remorse and begged for God’s forgiveness.  God, in his infinite mercy and wisdom, forgave them.  Islam has no concept of original sin; each person bears responsibility for his own deeds. “And no bearer of burdens shall bear another’s burden”. (Quran 35:18) There is no need

THE DOCTRINE OF ORIGINAL SIN

Greetings of peace, This post is an answer to a new friend whom I recently met and respect , a devout Christian  passionate about sharing his religion with others , who challenged me to provide some proofs regarding why Muslims don't accept the doctrine of  original sin; a doctrine ( including the concept of trinity ) that  was  added by the Church at the Council of Nicaea some 325 years after Jesus left the earth.  Notice I say left the earth ( meaning resurected alive by Allah )  and not died yet or crucify as some claims ,  but that is a topic for another day. Back to the doctrine of original sin. Are we born with so called Original sin or born innocent ? Is a Newly Born Baby really a Sinner? Islam Challenges The Concept of Original Sin. Let us found out why ? let's take a look at the following passages from The Bible: (Deuteronomy 24:16)   “The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the father
