I think there should be a time limit after which one shldnt be able to delete...

Peace Mahmud,
It's not unfounded at all.
Yes, it is - unless you have some evidence from the qur'an which states it's haram as you previously said.
And I'd call it remarkably naive of you to think that no one is out to hurt anyone. Do you think the world is full of sunshine and buttercups?
Umm...I'm not sure where you got that from. Here's what you said previously
The desire to hurt someone by preventing them correcting their mistakes is also haram.This is in reference to the subject of this thread, which is the ability to delete one's posts, aka, the discussion you and I are having. Nothing about sunshine, buttercups, or marshmallows either.
Here's my response
"No one is out to hurt anyone"
This is in reference to the moderators and administrators of this forum, aka, the people you claimed want to hurt others.Will there be anything else?
Peace,

Yes, you haven't answered my point.
Of course there is no deleting of history. There is deleting of unnecessary information in the present. If you don't want to argue something anymore, you should be able to withdraw your argument.
And yes, it is stupid to me that the so called progressives earlier in this thread don't understand that, but think deleting a post is somehow time-traveling sacrilege against Allah.

Seems fair enough. If I wanted to get your opinions on somethin personal that's botherin me, I could do that and later, say, after a few months, ask an admin to delete it. No harm done. One of the benefits of a forum like this one is gettin group therapy under complete anonymity, isn't it?

They rant at you when you ask them to do that.
Really!!! I am shocked! Thanks for the tip Mahmud.
Peace and God bless.To the moderators If I placed a personal account of my experiences with family members, to get advice on how to deal with them, and then, after a few months, wanted the post removed, will you refuse to do it. I am not askin for the removal of my entries in a debate or something like that.
Awaitin your answer

Peace Sarah
I probably would refuse to remove your post. Keep in mind entries here are seen to be worthwhile to all observers. Be careful when you "dare" to post any "personal" information especially in the context of seeking the "growth" and dealing with the "incessant testing".

You don't tell people when they join that the forum doesn't allow deletion of posts.
Exactly, I didn't know till now, so thanks Mahmud. God bless.
To the moderators If you mentioned this conspicuously, e.g. on the forum home page or on the 'post reply' page, it will be really helpful. Most forums allow the deletion of posts, so a lot of inexperienced members of this forum (includin me) may not know about this. Please do something about it.
Peace
Sarah
