First I totally don’t agree with her post especially how she worded it, so if I gave you the wrong impression I sincerely apologize🥰
Good manners have nothing to do with being religious and vice versa.
But I was just saying that she “may “ said all of that out of good intention but worded it offensively.
If you want to know “Islam’s” point of view then:
In Islam even if you donate as much as the size of the sun multiplied a thousand times to charity and do good in your life
If you die as a non Muslim
Then what good you did on earth will not benefit you in the sight of god by the least
Because you did the worst crime possible
which is not believing in him And worshiping him. So every good deed you did goes to waste. Its like watering an empty pot since
The core (seed ) is missing.
It’s like standing in front of god on the day of judgment
And mentioning all the good deeds you did in life as deep as the ocean yet denied worshiping him and believing in him. So everything you did doesn’t matter.
It’s like getting windows doors etc for your house but you don’t have the foundation.
BUT
Similarly though “belief “ alone doesn’t take you anywhere in Islam
You need belief + good deeds.
That’s why in Quran every time god says “those who believe “ it’s followed up by “and do good”
Believing in god alone with no partners is the core seed and good manners etc is the water.
So technically in Islam belief alone doesn’t take you anywhere , you need beautiful morals and to do good deeds too.
However, the ridiculous idea that atheists or non Muslims are all mean because they lack “religion “ is stupid and doesn’t exist in Islam.
If having faith in god automatically makes you a good person god wouldn’t have bothered to add “and do good deeds “ after “those who believe “
a non Muslim can be very well mannered and we are obligated to treat you with respect and live with you in harmony.
{You have your way, and I have my Way.}109:6
{Allah does not forbid you from those who do not fight you because of religion and do not expel you from your homes - from being righteous toward them and acting justly toward them. Indeed, Allah loves those who act justly.} 60:8
So as long as you don’t fight us
We “should “ treat you with respect and justice.
As for the last part , in Islam you can’t be unjust even if it’s between a Muslim and a non Muslim.
During the time of prophet Mohammed, a Muslim stole a Shield from his Muslim neighbor and Then put the blame on a Jew who lived in the same neighborhood and swore he did it ,
And of course prophet Mohammed at first believed the Muslims and was about to give the ruling against the Jew
But god didn’t allow that injustice to occur
Imagine verses from 7 skies above
Came down to exonerate a Jew , Even though he denied Islam.
Check the verses out :
It starts with:
{Indeed, We have revealed to you, [O Muḥammad], the Book in truth so you may judge between the people by that which Allah has shown you. And do not be for the deceitful an advocate.} 4:105
(check the remaining verses 4:106-114 )
And you can even double check what I’m saying ^
Because god simply said :
{Indeed, Allah does not do injustice, [even] as much as an atom's weight} 4:40
Of course this is “Islam” as a religion
but not every “Muslim “ follows Islam by word sadly.
(Allah is Arabic word for god)
Have a good day💕
