SO, IM A MUSLIM..AM I?

its been a wonderful evening...legal aid held a seminar on criminal litigation..compulsory on all chambies..mr andrew paul was the speaker...its been very educational as it involved the issue of criminal justice...when he said that the principle "man is innocent until proven guilty" is only a mere saying in legal practice...as people tend to prejudge other people's act before he's given a fair opportunity to a fair trial...but this is really an awakening exposure..as me myself, an imperfect human being tend to do at times...

and i guess because of the nature of human beings of being imperfect, that gives more reason for us to be under the guidance of God...that's basically what Religion is all about..it not punitive and retaliatory..and to show how much God loves us that He made this right path for us..just waiting to be followed as the end destination is infinite...

i read the star news paper today..there was one anonymous letter that really caught my attention..its regarding the ill treatment the US immigration had given particularly on Malaysian citizen traveling into the country...in that letter he/she stated how devastated he was as Malaysians were being interrogated for hours and they missed the connecting flight...and this situation occurred occasionally...as he/she is working with one of the US corporation, this is to him/her very appalling situation...and at the end of the letter..he stated that..whenever their people are here..by our beaches or in our cities..we are being so nice to give them smiles which we could hardly get even before we get into their country...

my conclusion is simple..i strongly believe that the guy/woman whop wrote the letter must be a Muslim...that's the only reason that proves the point...because nowadays, being a Muslim, is a crime...and being a devoted Muslim is terrorism...and being a woman who wears jilbab to cover her aurah is a suicide bomber....

yet, we still refuse to defend the only thing that we have..that is the Religion...we'd die to live and look like "them"...at the expense of our own conscience...and look what's happening around us...they dont even bother to grant you the freedom and liberty that ure entitled to..they dont even bother to follow ur customs..they dont even bother to recognize the differences...and they even bother to stop labeling us as terrorists...and yet..we are so proud of their backwardness towardS the very basic principle of human right..that is conviction to the Religion...

and they have the nerve to label Muslims (devoted Muslims- use this term as thers's a titanically gigantic difference between Muslims and devoted Muslims) as terrorists whereas they are the ones who have committed the most appalling crimes against humanity..that is "RACISM"-particularly towards devoted Muslims...
