mr amir bin yusuf ne karachi pakistan se sawal kiya hai. unhone likha hai: "insan jannat mein apne aap ko tawheed parast hone ke saboot diye baghair nahi ja sakta, magar jo insaan se gunah hote hain, woh kya imaan toheed ki kamzori ki wajah se hote hain? is ke bare mein bataein." mein bas samajhta hoon ke aise aadmi ko bas apni study barhana chahiye. zyada mutala, zyada mutala karne se sari baatein clear hoti hain, aur shaoor barhta hai. jitna shaoor barhega,

imaan ki kamzori aik ambiguous term hai. mein samajhta hoon ke aisi cheez hai shaoor ki kami aa jati hai. shaoor ki kami aa jati hai. jab aap zyada study karein ge, zyada parhein ge to aap ka shaoor barhega. jab shaoor barhega to apne aap sab cheezein theek hoti chali jayengi. imaan ki kamzori to aik aik waham term hai. kya matlab is ka hai imaan ki kamzori ka? ji, mr shah imran hasan ne new delhi se sawal kiya hai. unhon ne likha hai: "aap paraye apne speech mein kehte hain ke islam dharm shanti ka sandesh deta hai, magar practically to dharm aadmi ke beech nafrat ki bhavna paida karta hai.

abhi subah mein kisi ne kaha tha, aaj hi subah ke india ka jo constitution bana to muslim leaderon ke mang par is mein clause rakha gaya ke minority ya majority ke musalmanon ko minority kar diya aur hinduo ko majority. mein ne kaha yeh kya, is ki kya zaroorat thi? koi zaroorat hi nahi. bhai, hum indian hain, bas hum indian hain. hum kyun kahein ke aap log, hum aqalliyat hain? to mein to sochta hi nahi is tareeqe se. agarche mera naam muslim hai, mein aik aik practice muslim hoon. yeh sara mamla soch ka mamla hai, naam ka mamla nahi hai. agar jin logon ke naam eksaan hain, woh aapas mein ladte nahi hain. hindu, hindu aapas mein nahi ladta. muslim, muslim, muslim aapas mein nahi ladte. musalman, musalman aapas mein ladte hain. hindu, hindu aapas mein ladte hain.

to naam ka mamla nahi hai, soch ka mamla hai. soch ki satah par aadmi ka agar tolerance ho to bas sab theek rahega. mr ehtesham hasnain ne hyderabad se sawal likha hai. maulana sahib, woh pooch rahe hain ke "why does it happen that i feel superior to some of the people around me?
