It's a start, and I know we need to go on. But that shouldn't be our prime objective. What I am about to say, may be harsh, and although I am not sorry for what I am about to say, I am sorry that some may find it mean. Here in America, Muslims have this mentality that we need to make ourselves aware. And we need to be more active.
Actions speak louder than words, true, but there is something still even louder.
I understand through recent posts that there are some porblems with organization, and some things that may need to be done are not getting done. Well, maybe it's because we may be trying to do the wrong thing. A while back a man was considered a 'good Muslim' if he prayed and fasted. Now he is consisdered a 'good Muslim' if he is active in the Muslim community. Ok, so he improved, he now prays, fasts, and is active in the Muslim community.
