Limits of open-mindedness and prophetic example

Maulana, agla sawal Ahmedabad se Faizan sahib ne bheja hai. Unhon ne likha hai: "Maulana, what is the difference between open-minded thinking and closed-minded thinking? I am asking this question because the case of Muslims is of closed-mindedness. They defend themselves saying that in Islam, if you become flexible or yield towards other faiths, then God will hold you accountable on the day of judgment. So Maulana, the question is: what are the limits to open-mindedness and is there an example from the life of Prophet and his companions?" Dekhiye, knowledge ki koi limit nahi hoti, koi limit nahi. Khoob padhiye, khoob padhiye. Abhi maine jo bataya, wahi to tha ke musalmanon mein ek ta'assub paida ho gaya ke bas Arabic, bas Arabic, bas Arabic.

Doosri zubanon ke bare mein woh bias, bias ho gaye. Is se un ka dard narrow-mindedness aaya. Mahboob bhai ne Mumbai se likha hai: "Maulana, whatever I know, based on that you are the only aalim who clears misconceptions among Muslims which are in vast numbers. Maulana, you give us guidance with utmost clarity. Jazak Allah Maulana. Miss Shabina Ali ne Pakistan, Miss Shabina Ali ne Kolkata se likha hai: "A very important lecture, Maulana. You have touched upon the topic which holds a lot of misconceptions,

and today it has been cleared thoroughly. Thank you." Maulana, agla comment aur sawal Rampur se aaya hai. Irshad Ali sahib ne bheja hai. Unhon ne likha hai: "Maulana, aaj bhi aap ke alawa hamare saare ulama ibaadat ke sirf form hi batate hain.
