Worthless thoughts??

After having studying TITAS, I have realized that all this while, I mean, being in a Malay country, Malaysia, it has many things wrong!
According to what I have learned and read from the TITAS book and notes, it seemed as if, we, being in a Malay country, having its rulership going in a Muslim course, we should have less or by right, none of the problems that we are looking now happening in Malaysia. Why?
The Muslims should know what I’m talking about, but for those non-Muslims, what I’m saying about is based from their Quran and Sunnah teachings where it says that Muslims are educated to be learned beings, able to make something out or think something out or in other words, creative and innovative in their own rightful ways in time of crisis and self-lacking. So we do see such happenings in which a fraction does and applies it. Mostly however, they resort to stealing, robbery and snatching and even murder. Is that actually how a Muslim should be here in Malaysia? (Just to shrink the scope to Malaysia)
By right, if all the Muslims, or at least 80% of Malaysian Muslims were to apply their Quran’s teachings, than Malaysia should be one of the many prosperous countries in today’s world!
Of course, it all is unfair pointing all fingers to the Muslims, but if, now, all the other non-Muslims are the constant groups and the Muslims are the only variables, thus, it would also improve whatever state our country is now in. Don’t you think so?
I’m not criticizing or being prejudice or discriminating but, if only they live up to what they claim and believe and teach and apply all of it, then, there won’t be any more wars and other problems we see currently now happening worldwide.
Yes, they do apply some of what they believe which is visible to us such as the freedom of worship we are having now which really is one commendable application.
At the end of the day, think it over and you’ll notice that Christianity’s nothing but the same with wars undergoing and alliances made between political leaders and religious leaders. Everyone is doing it. Some do it in the name of the same religion as their so called ‘enemy’, believing and asking for victory and triumph from the same ‘God’. Then they blame their ‘God’ if they lost the battle. Come on! (I’m getting a little preachy here, beg your pardon) For Christians, the Bible and what it contains is where your faith is and not human doctrines or philosophies or ideas. 1 Peter 3:11 plainly states,” but let him turn away from what is bad and do what is good; let him seek peace and pursue it.” Again, if only they would apply what they believe. Apply their faith or at least for the sake of humanity!

haha.. i'm not an LO, i'm an MPP lo.. 'was' an MPP..

sure i'll link your blog to mine too haha..

hm.. we live in a malay country meh? i don't really agree. yes, we do live in a malay-majority country, but god created earth for everyone. in the eyes of god, the land is for everyone. in my opinion la..

yeah, i agree if all muslims in malaysia follow the quran and sunnah, there should not be any troubles and what-nots. it is even a sin for muslims to create tensions and problems with non-muslims who are tolerable to muslims (known as zimmi in muslim term). nevertheless, again in my opinion, it doesn't take religion only, let alone islam, to promote peace. it comes from within the individual themselves. islam promotes peace, but some people go and put bombs at their body and say they want to die in the name of islam. kanasai. mencemarkan nama islam saja. i believe this problem is not only in islam, but also in any other religion. if we look back through history, the number one reason why wars were caused was because of religion - which, causes some people to be atheist not because they don't believe in god, but because the notion of the destruction of the human race in defending a non-existance super being just despises them.

we don't live in a perfect world. what to do lei. muslims in malaysia (assuming that all malaysian malays are WILLING to be muslims - although we are the ONLY country in the world that permits such legitimacy of forcing AN ENTIRE RACE to embrace a particular religion) comprises 60.4% of the population. 80% of that 60.4% would lead to 48.32% of the population. i don't think we would achieve prosperity by just putting our hopes on these 48.32%, if you get what i mean. everyone has to play a part. like what i said, it all depends on the individual.

nice topic though. even i have yet to talk about religious affairs in my blog. haha. happy holidays, bro! haha..
