Maulana, agla sawal UK se kiya hai doctor Hina ne aur unhon ne likha hai ke Some interfaith members say that Muslims are obsessed with Islam. How and why are Muslims so sure that Islam is a true religion? Dekhen, hum jo baat kehte hain, woh yeh nahi ke Islam true religion hai, Islam superior religion hai, yeh sab baat nahi karte. Hum sirf yeh kehte hain ke Islam ka jo text hai, woh poori tarah preserved hai.

Isay aap jab is doosre text ko padhenge to us mein yeh doubtful hai ke prophet ne kya kaha tha aur ab jo hamare paas jo is ka record hai, us se kya maloom ho raha hai. Lekin jab aap Islam ko padhenge to us mein aisa yeh doubt nahi hota. Wohi baat jo kahi hai Rasool Allah ne, wohi baat aaj bhi preserved hai. To hum yeh kehte hain ke yahan par aap study kar sakte hain is yaqeen ke sath ke prophetry ki baat hai jo mujhe padhne ko mil rahi hai. Bas hum yeh kehte hain. Baqi jahan tak mazhab ka mamla hai, main is ko personal choice manta hoon. Personal choice.

mein conversion ke khilaaf hoon. mein conversion hamara nahi hota hai. mein kehta hoon ke personal choice ki baat hai. aap study kijiye, aap ghore o fikr kijiye, aap contemplation kijiye aur jo cheez aap ko sachai nazar aaye, us ko ikhtiyar kijiye. to mein do baatein mein ne kahein. ek yeh hai ke islam ke bare mein hamara jo manna hai, woh yeh nahi ke woh koi superior religion hai. nahi, hum yeh kehte hain ke is ka jo text hai, is ka jo matan hai, woh preserved hai.

yeh ek khaas baat hai. doosri baat yeh hai ke mazhab koi yeh nahi ke aap ja ke kisi ka kalma parhwaein to woh musalman ho gaya. is se kuch nahi hota. there is nothing. aadmi ke dil ko gawahi dena chahiye ke sachai kya hai. yeh kalma parhwata jaana idhar udhar, woh woh koi tareeqa nahi hai. aap logon ko kahiye ke aap study karo, ghore o fikr karo aur tumhara dil jis cheez ki sachai pe gawahi de, us ko ikhtiyar karo. isi liye mein kehta hoon ke mazhab jo insaan ka personal choice hai.
