@AdoonkaAlle
I put 5&6 as 1 and 2 for two reasons.
1. I was arguing about character and said if you found character important, you put them first.
Key word is “IF”.
2. I made a mistake which I corrected in my next post in which I stated I will only marry a Muslim from a Muslim culture.
The person I was responding to (@citrus_samurai) understood that.
But you couldn’t.
But lets be honest here
@AdoonkaAlle
You’re a master of deflection.
You initially came onto this thread to defend using race as a criteria to reject a suitor.
You used the weak argument of “lineage”.
Many users here including
@Shimbiris have pointed out that race cannot be used to reject a suitor.
You came on this thread just to provide judgment on me and my personal beliefs for holding an opinion.
You repeatedly hint that I’m a murtad without saying it (presumably because you don’t want to falsely takfir me). But it doesn’t work like that,
your insinuation is just the same as calling me a murtad.
I give you respect as an ostensibly learned man of faith but the fact you are consistently unable to return it shows your character better than any argument of mine.
Our exchange that followed revealed your justification for why you ranked behaviour as the most important reason why she should reject that guy. You gave it a priority because according to you it's easier to change religion than behaviour. Islam in this case isn't an important reason like behaviour for why a muslim woman should reject a kafir man.
Entertaining such a view is even more absurd when you consider the fact that you were using islam to argue that it doesn't allow rejection based on lineage. How is it that islam isn't important when it relates to clear cut haram activities but suddenly is when it's about actions that aren't haram ?
Isn't it weird that you would make an exception for religion but not for lineage ? no one else advocated for such a view. When your personal beliefs and opinions lead to justifying haram actions clearly something is very wrong. This should be an indication that you need to revisit and correct them not rationalize what is haram.
The reason i'm questioning you is because of your tendency to advocate for that which is haram like supporting lgbt, blaming our downfall on the permissibility of polygamy, supporting muslim women to pursue kafir men, claiming that there's no objective evidence for god's existence.
Sins by themselves don't make a muslim murtad it's the underlying belief that accompanies their actions which makes them a murtad. A lot of muslim do zina, drink alcohol etc they don't leave the religion because of it laakin when they start believing that what they're doing is right and Allah is wrong for prohibiting it then their actions takes them out of the fold of islam.
Those users on ss who left islam did so because islam no longer aligned with their newly adopted views, islam according to them was either intellectually inferior, limited their freedoms to engage in whatever they desired etc. So when their beliefs changed the end result was they left islam. The reason why i hinted at the possibility that you may not be a muslim is because we've had cases where users pretended to be muslims and went about advocating for that which is haram so as to mislead actual muslims.
When we see ourselves adopting views contrary to islam that should be an indication that something is wrong and that we need to take steps to rectify what the problem is. It's only natural to be questioned about such views and perhaps by being challenged was the only way for one to find out where they went wrong.
In one hadith the Prophet PBUH informs us that none of us will have faith till we wish for our muslim brother what we like for ourselves. Similarly i would like you to be protected from doubts, be corrected when you're wrong just like i wish it for myself. There's no cayb to admit mistakes they help us grow both in knowledge and character. Granted my questioning could've been better formulated and i'll gladly admit it but it doesn't take away from the fact that views contradicting diinta was being advocated for.
My aim was to make you understand the consequence of such a view and not to belittle you in any way. Do apologise if you felt this way as that wasn't my intention.
