Umma of the Middle Way

Postby husenqays » Fri Dec 16, 2005 2:11 pm

Asalaam aleikum/

"You are a community (Umma) of the middle way, so that you may be witnesses before Humanity."
Al-Baqara (The Cow)
Chapter 2: Verse 143

[list]Islam enjoins wisdom, balance, moderation and tolerance in all affairs, and it condemns excessiveness, extravagance and fanatical attitudes.

To achieve a balanced attitude, Muslims need to understand the objectives of Islam, stay close to Islamic guidance, and give as much weight to an aspect of Islam as the noble Prophet of Allah and his faithful Companions gave, no more and no less.

Extremist attitudes, practices and customs, make their entrance into an organisation, community or groups, through various ways - through views based on ignorance, superficial knowledge, imbalanced understanding or impatience.

Extremism is bred when certain verses of the Quran, sayings of the noble Prophet or certain of his deeds are exaggerated or understood out of their context. It even arises from exaggerated love or hate of someone or something.

An extremist outlook is one of the major causes of Muslim disunity and weakness today. Islamic workers must avoid extremism and rigidity, learn and observe the ethics of disagreement in Islam, and show respect and tolerance to differing views and opinions that are within the boundaries of Islam.
