Myself, I like studying Haddeths =), The prophet Muhammad (pbuh) prophesied about the made up Haddeths, that's why he warned us and give us standards, isn't that much hard to determine the intact one from the made up one. may peace of Allah be upon him.

Note: Silly, Irrelevant, and the like, responses, posts, comments will be ignored (it depends on my mood and time if I won't ignore them), taking off the topic is losers' style, ask yourself: will you write such response if the writer wasn't a Muslim!

Yours Sincerely,

Cat Stevens

So what happens? Bickering, arguing, impatience, anger, hatred. And over what?

We expect people to behave the way we do?!

We expect people to think the way we do?!

We expect people to perceive the way we do?!

We expect people to believe the way we do?!

Expectations lead to disapointments. Sustained disappointments lead to impatience. Sustained impatience leads to anger. Sustained anger leads to hatred. Sustained hatred leads to violence, disputes, killing, extinction...

How do you force your views, beliefs and opinions on someone?

By "telling" them their views, beliefs and opinions are wrong and refuting with them the same, all based on your own personal views, beliefs and opinions.

By belittling them for holding to their own views, beliefs and opinions.

By becoming impatient with them because their views, beliefs and opinions differ from yours.

By becoming angry with them because their views, beliefs and opinions differ from yours.

By creating strife and discord because their views, beliefs and opinions differ from yours.

By flaming them because their views, beliefs and opinions differ from yours.

By insulting them because their views, beliefs and opinions differ from yours.

By provoking hatred, animosity, indefference because their views, beliefs and opinions differ from yours.

By speaking rabidly toward those whose views, beliefs and opinions differ from yours.

By hijacking someone else's thread for your own personal agenda, or changing the topic of their discussion because it doesn't have the same views, beliefs and opinions as you have.

Stop trying to force your views and opinions on others as if they should be viewing them the way you do or forming the same opinions as you.

If you want to believe in God, and someone does not, then they have their own rights to their own views and perceptions on reality as you do. Just because their views and perceptions are not yours, does not make them any more wrong to them as yours are not to you.

Everyone has a right to their own perceptions. It's what makes reality real to them.

If you have something to share, share it. But if someone disagrees, then they have every right to disagree, long as they are not trying to force their views, beliefs and opinions over what they disagree on to you, or you on to them.

This is intolerance. Intolerance is lack of tolerance. Tolerance is the capacity for or the practice of recognizing and respecting the beliefs or practices of others.

Others views, beliefs and opinions are as important to them as yours are to you.

Please respect others views, beliefs and opinions as you would want them to respect yours.

If all else fails, refer to guideline 4 and 6 of the forum guidelines.

In this forum, the guidelines are the bible.

You read them. You agreed to them. Else you would not be here. Agreeing to them just so you can gain entrance without respecting them, is not a defense for being banned.

There are two types of bans; suspensions which last anywhere from one day up to two years, and permanent bannings.

You agreed to be suspended or banned if:

you are flaming or trolling someone with posts intended to insult and provoke.

you speak incessantly and/or rabidly on some relatively uninteresting subject with some patently rediculous attitude.

you repeatedly post with directed hostility at a particular person or group of people or for being hostile toward others for their beliefs (which also falls under the label of intolerance).

you chronically troll, regularly post arguments, flames or personally attack some one for no other purpose than to annoy that person, or disrupt a discussion.

You also agreed to have a moderator, at their discretion, delete your post(s) if they (the posts) have nothing to do with the thread you are posting in. And, you also agreed to be banned, again at the moderators discretion for the same reason.

In case you need to re-read the forum guidelines, you can find them here: http://www.hipforums.com/forumguidelines.htm ... or reposted below for your convenience.

Thank you, and enjoy ...

4.Flaming/Trolling: Flames are posts intended to insult and provoke. Posters who speak incessantly and/or rabidly on some relatively uninteresting subject or with a patently ridiculous attitude will be banned. Repeated posts directed with hostility at a particular person or group of people or their beliefs will be cause for banning. Any individual who chronically trolls, who regularly posts arguments, flames or personal attacks for no other purpose than to annoy someone or disrupt a discussion will be banned.

5.Obscene/Pornographic/Violent postings: Unless these contribute something useful to the discussions, they will be deleted.

Off Topic Postings: Often people post remarks that have nothing to do with the subject of the forum or thread. Occasionally threads are deliberately taken off topic to advance an opposing agenda or disrupt the discussion. These posts will be moved or deleted at the discretion of the moderator, and the user may be banned. We urge all members wishing to discuss a new topic to start a new thread in the appropriate forum.

6.Banning: People who violate these forum guidelines repeatedly are subject to banning. Once someone has been banned from the site, we don't not allow complaints about it. Once banned, we are done with that individual, and no amount of complaining from other members will help. We don't need to justify our bans. This only causes more work for the moderators. Which is usually the reason for the person being banned in the first place. So those who complain about a banishment, are subject to being banned themselves.

7.Status: When you first signup to the HipForums you are our guest and as long as you respect our rules you will become a full member after your 100th post. Until then you have more restrictions than our members, in that some forums are only available to full members. Those who have chosen to join our community and support what we stand for will be granted full membership. Members who abuse their status may see it changed back to Guest as a warning that their behavior is unnacceptable. Further abuse will lead to banning.
