I Am Enjoying Being A Muslim

[big]All people return to Allah after their death, but the happy person is the one who returns to Allah while still alive.[/big]

I learned that whoever constantly seeks forgiveness from Allah, Allah will appoint for them a way out of every distress and a relief from every anxiety, and will provide sustenance for them from sources they do not expect. Allah makes the impossible possible.

O Allah, fix my heart.

Neither Allah or Satan exist or have ever existed..

@Entwistle Are you sure?

Entwistle · 56-60, M

@Madeleine Yes.

@Madeleine not everyone have the same opinion. I believe religion is one's personal choice. So yeah, people can be sure if God exists or not.

Madeleine · 41-45, F

@JBird I believe that belief requires sincerity, so yes, nobody can force anyone to believe in God. But to be sure about something you need evidence.

@Madeleine you want evidences? Okay, but I have to warn you because you will be offended. Look at current situation. Where is God now? People have to depend on science and medicines instead of God. All mosques and churches have to shut down because of a virus. Looks like a virus is stronger than God. Also if your God is true and only one, why are many other people not worshipping your God?

My own life is the evidence that what all people worship is not true. I was a Christian and I used to pray every single day until tragedies start to hit. No God nor anyone helped me. It was only me. So I stopped depending on God and started to think rationally and open minded. I ditched Bible and started to read more motivational books and blogs. I stopped going to church and praying and started to spend those time on myself and my family. I used to blame myself for everything because I was 'sinned' but now I am confident and happy. I realised I didn't need God or religion to love myself and enjoy life. Nor I needed religion to respect and love humanity. More I accepted the new way of life, more I start to understand reality. People don't need religion. We're advanced species, we never needed religion from the start nor we need it now.

But most people don't agree with that and get offended when I tell them why don't believe in religion. I didn't want to start an argument, so I mostly keep quite and ignore people when they're so adamant about their religion. Hey, it's their choice.

@JBird Thank you for sharing your thoughts. It's okay to express your opinion, and your opinion doesn't offend me because it's not about me but about you and your relationship with your Creator.

I understand that you've gone through some bad/difficult experiences in life that got you to conclude that "there's no God". But respectfully I did not find the answer to my question in your reply. Where is your evidence that there's no Creator? How did this universe come to be? Did you even think about what happens to you after death?

Regarding the virus and where is God now, do you ever ask yourself the same question when life is great and everything is working well for you? Do you ask where is God when you are happy? Who gave you the life you're living now in the first place? Who gave human beings the intellect to think and develop in the first place? All of these questions need answers if we're truly sincere in our attempt to find the Truth.

Even though I'm Muslim, so I follow a religion, this is not about religions, it's about our purpose in life; why are we here?
