Shia, Sunni debate positive or negative? Move on.

We have to move on from the petty debates that are coming from this so called champion or that. We have to look at who are the real benefiters and who are the real losers in all of this.
What if all the Muslims joined in with this debate of ‘Sunni , Shia and the differences’? I tell you we would all be doomed. Let us not all get tangled up in this issue but if we do need to speak on it then speak on it using wisdom and patience and good akhlaq, and not like wild dogs foaming at the mouths just waiting to be let out of cages.

Correct the misconceptions without labelling this one or that as kaafir. Put forward your points without mocking and humiliating. Ask your questions without supplying your own answers midway through your question, otherwise you’re not really asking a sincere question. Ask one question at a time and not multiple questions to create doubt and confusion in people’s minds.

I think there is too much emphasis on these types of debates which in some cases only serve to not only open old wounds but keep brothers and sisters apart. Constructive, positive dialogue and debate is good. But the type of debate that is seen on some forums and satellite stations is totally divisive and only plays into the hands of the separatists.

Some subjects should just be blanked from being spoken about because they are a total waste of time and are futile exercises like the regurgitated debate over whether Shias believe the Quran has been tampered with. It is a nonsense that people still continue to make others believe that all Shias believe this stuff.

Most of what is happening is that innocent people are being blamed for something they believe not. Allah Himself says that the Quran is unable to be forged so end of story. And until you find someone that says that stuff then stop spreading lies and rumours, and control your tongue, otherwise you make yourself sound like you believe in it being tampered with more than the ones you accuse. So stop going around in circles, if they say they don’t believe its tampered with accept it and move on.

Are we stoking our own fire for the separatists, are we turning our own weapons on each other helping the separatists? Have people forgotten already about the divide and conquer tricks? Do people think that the separatists are not able to disguise themselves as Muslim sunnis or Shias and kidnap, kill and do whatever they need to, just to achieve their aims? Shias and Sunnis are not separate tribes that have to fight for the banner of Islam and impress themselves to non Muslims that look we are Muslims and the others are not.

Those Muslims that waste their energies in this type of tit for tat retaliation of words just to have the last word and think that the last word is the truth do not know the art of debate. I have heard Muslims call other Muslims Kaafir but when you ask them why they are Kaafir they will tell you I heard that they do so and so or believe so and so.........you heard? Imagine that....... does the Quran not say read? Does the Quran not say ‘do not say of others you are not a believer’. Did the Prophet not say ‘one who calls another a Kaafir should know that either the caller or the one called is in the fire’.

This is not the time for one-upmanship over each other or to seek out the Kaafirs and the munafiqs, that is Allah’s job on the day of judgement to put everyone in their respective packages and send them off to their rightful abode. But some of us who think we carry the keys to heaven and hell would like to sieve out and despatch those who we deem unfit to call themselves Muslims. Slow down, take your time. Don’t engage in negative debate but debate on how we can stem the infighting the Takfirees, the Separatists and non Muslims that are openly and actively against Islam, the Prophet Muhammad and the Quran in their words, deeds and finances.
