Diturunkan kenyataan Amin Tan yang saya salin daripada komen beliau tentang salah faham orang bukan Islam terhadap agama. Untuk pengetahuan.
May I explain some misconception by dtan regarding islam.
Dear dtan, you said
“It is amazing how Muslims feel they can do no wrong, keep finding proponents to defend them. Keep dishing it out, if it makes you sleep better, that’s all i can say.”
Just as Bible, Muslims are guided by the Holy Quran to be revealed to humanity through Prophet Mohammad. Please do not belittle the great religion of Islam without reading and understanding the message in the Holy Book. Quran forbids killing, cruelty, cheating, stealing, racism and allow and protect the practice of other religion like Christianity and Judaism among the Muslims if they do no harm to the Muslim community. But once they become the 5th column of Muslim’s enemy, so to speak or spies for the enemies of the Muslims, then their presence is not tenable. It is no good to insult islam by saying “muslims feel they can do no wrong”. This kind of words can only be uttered by those who are ignorant of the message in the Holy Quran. The muslims say ‘jahil’.
Allow me to share one aspect of Islam to promote personal hygiene. wudud or ablution. Prior to a Muslim prayer, it is compulsory to take wudud or wash oneself. The washing of the externalities or extremities is hygienic. One has to thoroughly wash both hands, gurgle the month, wash the face, clean or wash the nostrils by water by way of sucking the water through the nose half way and blowing out again, repeating at least 3 times. Nostrils are the main filters of our lung. Muslims do these 5 times a day meaning one does not have to dig the nose by fingers in public. During wudud too, both feet are washed with water thoroughly. This will ensure the feet or shoes would not smell.
The same thing goes for washing after urinating and defecating.
Islam only teaches Muslims good things, positive things. Undoubtedly, I find islam to be a very good puritanical religion suitable for a Chinese character who wants to have a clean and healthy life dunia and hereafter. Islam forbids gambling, consuming intoxicating drink, prostitution, promiscuity and ah long. Wallahu alam.
