What is Islam?

The universality of Islam is not uniformity but unity in diversity.

Nice diagram,

Without evil how can we tell good?
Without good how can we tell evil?

Is there "good baby" and "evil baby"?
No, babies are just babies, they don't do evil thus they don't do good.

Back to answer the main topic,

islam is an attitude.
It is an attitude of "acceptance" a "surrender" to what has happened, what is happening and what will happened in the future.
It's an attitude recommended by sages of the past such as Jesus, Moses, Siddharta, Lao Tse and hundreds of today self help book's author.

Through islam attitude one will find happiness and peace.
If you haven't felt happiness and peace then you're not yet islam.

Through "acceptance" a "surrender" to what has happened, what is happening and what will happened in the future, one shall have no worries, no envy, no despair, no regrets, no anger. Just peace thus happiness.

It's a simple concept, very easy to say but it's very hard to perform.

Salam / Peace

muslims

It's a simple concept, very easy to say but it's very hard to perform.

It is true and just a matter of perspective, ie.

It's a simple concept, very easy to say (from the perspective of a Deen) but it's very hard to perform (from the perspective of a religion.. sectarianism and bigotism).

and that's why...

(So) you have your din (sectarianism, bigotism),
and I have my Din (living justly balanced and human unity)
(109.6)

It is an absolute separation of way or system of life, which requires wisdom and acceptance of all religions..
Everyone and everything is one, (3.83 below). . and
It is therefore almost impossible for the sectarians to practice Islam.. sadly,

And whoever seeks a "dnan" (&#1575 other than Islam
it will NEVER be accepted of him
and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers
(385)

plus . . there is no shortcut for the hypocrites to Islam.. .

Allah would not leave the believers in that you are in
until He separates the evil from the good
(3179)

It is therefore "a simple concept, very easy to say but it's very hard to perform"

Through "acceptance" a "surrender" to what has happened, what is happening and what will happened in the future, one shall have no worries, no envy, no despair, no regrets, no anger. Just peace thus happiness.

Yes and one should realize that...

to Him have submitted (&#1614 those within the heavens and earth (3.83)

Therefore, what is there to resist since everyone and everything have submitted to Allah, willingly or by compulsion.

It also follows that Islam is not about "submission" since everyone and everything have submitted to Allah

But Islam is about "assimilation" of good and evil as one. . Ying and Yang, and I must admit that in some aspect of their faith, it looks like these peoples are more Muslim than the Muslims themselves.

hehehe CHINA NAK TIPU URANG MUSLIM!!! rotfl

As muslim we must tried to uphold the white whatever the black is existed.
If necessary the white must have more percentage than black.

If we keep silent and weak, slowly the black will coloured the white withouth you noticed.
If we keep pouring the oil in a glass of water, then the water will spill out by times

White is ma'ruf while black is munkar,
The YIN YANG balance actually just a fake utopia while actually doesn't exist in real life

Yes, you as an individual, not as a whole. . . "your life"

How about others?

ie. more than 7 billion peoples on earth, and trillion of other living creatures ?

and..

And if you were to harm (them) in retaliation
harm them to the measure you were harmed
16.126

and 18.68-82 (Moses and Khidhr)

And how can you have patience for what you do not encompass in knowledge?

and. . .

The YIN YANG balance actually just a fake utopia while actually doesn't exist in real life

It is just their symbol for understanding about life, no big deal if its fake or not. .
It is irrelevant unless among the sectarians

hehehe CHINA NAK TIPU URANG MUSLIM!!! rotfl

The main point life is about balance

The main point is Allah do command justice and balance in the society

God orders
justice (creating balance)
and goodness
16.90

Justice, is about "balance" . .
Sunnatullah, is about "balance" . .
Everything is about "balance" . .

There is no such thing as everything is "white" (good) or "black" (evil)

Have you not learned something after so many years living on earth as a human being?

David_Saidi

Sorry muslims, you hijacked many verses in the Quran so I cannot respond yours

Have you not learned something after so many years living on earth as a human being?

Yes I already learnt anything, many aspects and even good and bad side of somethings.
There is nothing such as Yin Yang balance, that was just a jokes created by chinese clerics.

Humans created with desire, to uphold and keep their ideology existed, somewhat they will see the other group who opposed as an obstacle.

The muslims will tried to spread their teaching to non muslims via da'wah or invasion in the past time
The Christian has term named "Lost Sheep" means people who still not believe in Jesus as God,
according to them both you and me is the Lost Sheep and we're the target of their misionary/evangelist activities.

Remember, some Sacred Books properchied the doomsday, at that time the people fighting each other, spill blood, no balance at all.

So even Yin Yang authorized by god, fake still a fake.

By saying "China nak tipu", I don't propgandate anti China ethnically/physically but just their attitude.
I love Chinese, but little of them I befriend to because of that

We can befriend each other with the Chinese, but we still have our identity
Both you and me already live together with the Chinese for along time, but unlike you, me is type of person who learn the darks side of something, learning something for how to filter some other concepts
Just like I already learn the dark side of Quranist and Sunnism hehehe

muslims

There is nothing such as Yin Yang balance, that was just a jokes created by chinese clerics.

So the "IDEA" is a joke and unjust simply because it is created by the Chinese clerics ?

Is Sunnatullah a joke?

and of course, I've said it . . .

It is just their symbol for understanding about life, no big deal if its fake or not. .
It is irrelevant unless among the sectarians

You seem to simply ignore the verses and points I'd given above.

David_Saidi

sorry brother, I already edited mine post )

Please re-read again.

muslims

My question remain and in addition . . . what is wrong with this idea?

http//i61.tinypic.com/63r9es.gif

Is it wrong because of the "idea" itself . . .

. . .or is it wrong because the "Chinese clerics" invented this idea etc.?

How about this example, a mosquito... is it a joke?

Indeed, Allah is not timid to present an example
that of a mosquito or what is smaller than it
And those who have believed know that it is the truth from their Lord
But as for those who disbelieve, they say,
"What did Allah intend by this as an example?"
He misleads many thereby and guides many thereby
And He misleads not except the defiantly disobedient
2.26

muslims

Sorry muslims, you hijacked many verses in the Quran so I cannot respond yours

prove it . . don't just say it

here is my point

http//free-minds.org/forum/index.php?topic=9605723.msg349240#msg349240

Therefore . . .

prove that life is not about Sunnatullah
prove that justice is not about balance

answer the above questions

Prove it . . your blank accusation/denial does not prove anything, it is showing your lack of common sense

David_Saidi

My question remain and in addition . . . what is wrong with this idea?

http//i61.tinypic.com/63r9es.gif

I already answer that.....

http//free-minds.org/forum/index.php?topic=9605723.msg349223#msg349223

Sorry to ad hominem or little OOT , you person only know bout phylossopy, but didn't carefully to watch the situation.
You simply say "yes" to other concepts.

Yeaahh it's okay the Malay races from Southern Phillipine to Indonesia start to praise the Chinese, their cultures and religions, withouth realize if this only raised the Chinese hemegony in this archipelago especially in 2020 soon in the impact of free-trade/ACFTA

You must realize, the Malay races whatever their language is the majority and the main power in South East Asia, if Malay is too weak with foreign hegemony means the entire South East Asia will fall down to them

This scheme is similiar with the Hallyu/Korean Wave whose already brainwashed the young generations in this time.

http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_Wave

We may befriend to them (Chinese) , but it doesn't means we're weak to them, because such as balance doesn't existed and only a theory

The strong always oppress the weak, and this circle always happened time to time.
You praise the Chinese, work to them then their hegemony will roams against you, no balance at all.

Peace

muslims

I'm speaking about the "underlying idea" from Yin and Yang, what the symbol means. . .

and I asked you what's wrong with the idea . . .

is it wrong because of the idea itself, or
is it wrong the Chinese clerics invented the idea

and your answer

I already answer that.....

http//free-minds.org/forum/index.php?topic=9605723.msg349223#msg349223

Okay, you agree that there is nothing wrong with the idea

It is wrong simply because the Chinese clerics invented the idea

| ie. ur answer | | White is ma'ruf while black is munkar,
The YIN YANG balance actually just a fake utopia while actually doesn't exist in real life

It is clear that it is wrong not because of the "idea" itself, but because it is invented by the Chinese clerics . . .

So even Yin Yang authorized by god, fake still a fake.

(ie. even if the same concept is supported in other religion etc.)

Are you are a sectarian. . . a bigot ?

and . . .

Do you realize that you are speaking about "balance" and supporting the idea or theory itself,
but simply rejecting the idea because it is from the Chinese clerics ? ;D

e.g.

If we keep silent and weak, slowly the black will coloured the white withouth you noticed.
If we keep pouring the oil in a glass of water, then the water will spill out by times

You praise the Chinese, work to them then their hegemony will roams against you, no balance at all.

contradicting your own statement. . .

because such as balance doesn't existed and only a theory

See how you are getting confused with your own statement and understanding. . .
making judgement from which sect, race or nation that they belong. . .

and for the believers, there is no fear and no worries about life

because Sunnatullah do exist..

because Allah is Al-'Adl, The Just . . . The All Just

http//www.namesofallah.com/prev_site/images/names1/adl.gif

There is good, there is evil. . .

and there is balance between good and evil at all times. . . always, micro and macro level !

the established way of Allah ( &#1616 with those who passed on before
and you will not find in the way of Allah ( &#1616 any change
33.62

Maybe many people are too blind to see Allah's balance and justice. . .

to Him have submitted (&#1614 those within the heavens and earth (3.83)

Unquestionably, the allies of Allah there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve (1062)

It's simple -You hijacked many Quranic verses, Arabic language and intepreted it out of context
-You monopolize the Quran, so you can arrange the Quran to following your own concept, ex YY balance

I reject Yin Yang not because I hate Chinese.I don't hate Chinese generally, but only their attitude.
I already studying some Chinese teaching and I believed if the whole theaching are nonsenses and created in purpose to make money.

As I said before, YY balance doesn't existed in real life, because human is created with desire.
If they're strong possibly they will spread their influence, if we're weak, we will forced to live under their hegemony.

Example If a boy study in a school with full of naughty students, if that boy has weak mentally, possibility that boy will became naughty like the others.

I'm bigot?? Yes, I will became bigot to someone who tried to annilihate my faith
You ever said to me if you also follow the hadith right?? If you ever read the hadith, then you will know if Muhammad in hadith also a bigot toward some kafirs )

You forget in the Quran, there is a phrase "JIhad fi sabilillah" means fight/struggle in the Allah's way.
Islam promote struggle in faith, protect the purity of His teachinf because this is how Islam hath a long lives and still existed until now.

Anti bigot theory is weak, because no identity, doubtfull, no proper concepts and soon the Islam will destroyed because it already been assimilated with other teaching and perhaps Quranic verses will corrupted if it keep stay in the hands of weak moslems

I said "don't forget with history" means remember in the past the chinese almost controlled Malay archipelago, especially during Yuan and Ming dinasty.
Fortunately the GOD blessed some powefull kingdoms like Singhasari, Majapahit to eliminate Yuan armies.

http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mongol_invasion_of_Java

Is SIngapore is the first chinese country in here?? No
In the past there is a chinese country named Republic Lanfang in Borneo because the local kingdoms is very weak to halt chinese hegemony.

http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lanfang_Republic

Both Singapore and Lanfang Republic is not the good country for moslems and the purpose of creations of this country in the start if for money, guild and other materialistic things.

In society don't act bigot because it's impolite, but if we're being oppressed/annilihated perhaps the bigotry is needed.

muslims

I will break my reply into parts. . .

Firstly

It's simple -You hijacked many Quranic verses, Arabic language and intepreted it out of context
-You monopolize the Quran, so you can arrange the Quran to following your own concept, ex YY balance

No I'm not. . and you have not proven your blank accusation
Instead you repeatedly making your blank accusation

This what you've said . .

As muslim we must tried to uphold the white whatever the black is existed.

This is what I have replied . . . showing your understanding is not accurate

Showing that Islam is not all about good and evil alone

but Islam is also about balance between good and evil

Yes, you as an individual, not as a whole. . . "your life"

How about others?

ie. more than 7 billion peoples on earth, and trillion of other living creatures ?

and..

And if you were to harm (them) in retaliation
harm them to the measure you were harmed <- Allah's command to commit evil
16.126

and 18.68-82 (Moses and Khidhr) <- Khidhr commits evil

And how can you have patience for what you do not encompass in knowledge?

See? Allah commands evil in the Quran. . for binging balance and justice in that particular situation.

Islam is not only about doing good, but also bringing balance in the worst kind of situations

So . . what is your answer?

None !

But you repeatedly making blank accusations and denials. . .

Is this how you present truth ?

p.s. similarly, Allah is Al-Muizz (&#1586 - The Giver of Honor, and in contradiction. . . Allah is also Al-Muzill (&#1604 - The Giver of Dishonor. Allah is al-Rahim (&#1605 - The Exceedingly Merciful, and in contradiction. . . Allah is also Al-Muntaqim (&#1605 - The Avenger , and so on . . .

muslims

Secondly . .

I'm bigot?? Yes, I will became bigot to someone who tried to annilihate my faith

Okay, you have admitted that you are a bigot, a sectarian . . .

I reject Yin Yang not because I hate Chinese.I don't hate Chinese generally, but only their attitude.

There is nothing wrong with the idea of Ying & Yang
but it is all about you hating the Chinese attitude. . .
and actually, their ideas and the Chinese people
since the majority of Chinese believe in the Ying & Yang

and for that reason, you also hate their theory . . . even if . . .

So even Yin Yang authorized by god, fake still a fake.

So, it is clear that even God have no power over your opinion. . .

The issue of just or unjust is totally irrelevant to you

This is your faith

I will became bigot to someone who tried to annilihate my faith

muslims

Thirdly

You ever said to me if you also follow the hadith right?? If you ever read the hadith, then you will know if Muhammad in hadith also a bigot toward some kafirs

There is not a single person on this earth who are perfectfully a good person . . or perfectfully an evil person

Therefore, Allah's way means "living justly balanced", between good and evil

and for whatever religious labels they are. . .

For example

They are not the same
among the People of the Scripture is a community standing
reciting the verses of Allah during periods of the night and prostrating
They believe in Allah and the Last Day
and they enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong and hasten to good deeds
And those are among the righteous.
3.113-114

They are "kafirs" ?

Therefore, Muhammad is not a bigot, but he was an upright man. . .

Ibrahim was not a Jew <- Ibrahim has no religion, so as Muhammad. Nonsectarian.
nor a Christian
but he was (an) upright (man) <- showing a great concern for what is right, fair and truthful way
a Muslim <- Muslim = an upright man - a Muslim is defined by the above ayat
and he was not one of the polytheists <- Sectarianism (idol worshippers)
(367-6

Muhammad is not a bigot, but it is you . .
A sectarian who oppose justice and make decision based upon which sect or race that someone belong to..

That is because Allah hath revealed the Scripture with the truth
Lo! those who find (a cause of) disagreement in the Scripture
are in open schism (sectarianism, bigot, a true syiah or , ie. (379-87))
2.176

muslims

Lastly . . .

You forget in the Quran, there is a phrase "JIhad fi sabilillah" means fight/struggle in the Allah's way.
Islam promote struggle in faith, protect the purity of His teachinf because this is how Islam hath a long lives and still existed until now.

You misunderstood the concept of Jihad

Permission has been given to those who are being fought
because they were wronged
And indeed, Allah is competent to give them victory
22.39

As we can see, permission to fight is granted to all religions
Permission of Jihad is granted even to the disbelievers to Jihad against the Believers if the Disbelievers have been wronged

If the Believers are committing the oppression
Allah will be on their side and Allah is competent to give them victory over the Believers

Islam only defends the fundamental human right of freedom of conscience.
Allah does not take religious labels, but Allah command balance and justice

For the same reason, a true Muslim should not only treat the worshipper with respect
but should also be ready to defend their places of worship when attacked
