A person who likes to start fights is often referred to as bellicose, which is an adjective used to describe someone who enjoys fighting or arguing. A bellicose person may be aggressive and confrontational, frequently instigating conflicts with others.
Often the ordinary person engaged with many responsibilities finds himself meeting individuals who have been waiting to ambush certain people of Haqq. Especially the vulnerable lay person. They could come across as kind or at times as argumentative and the truth is you are a Mu’min. A Mu’min operates with a schedule even though it may not be professionally printed on a wall. The fact is this Mu’min has responsibilities to fulfill whereas these Kuffaar shia and such of the deviant are trained to sweep you off your feet. At times it could be a WhatsApp war room and at times Shaytaan then makes someone so focused on this debate that Salaah is then left behind.
Others will celebrate Meeladun Nabi with qawwali and total music the entire night but then Fajr Salaah is forgotten and then the claim is “WE ARE AASHIQ-E,-RASOOL”. Calm down, let us prioritise!
The question is we want a short answer in times we as the laymen do not have full information to answer the man who has been preparing years to debate and corner you, how do we go about this?
Do you feel cornered at times?
Every Person may not always have an answer or time to every query from the baatil camps. When you do not have this knowledge but identify truth then do not let them manipulate you further, still hold on to your beliefs.
At times you will realize how much time went into convincing a obstinate person and this throws you off your schedule and family responsibilities. At times some really do not have the knowledge to defend an unprepared topic. The truth is the deviants are linked to Shaytaan. They focus on ambushing the true believers. They are paid to spend loads of time into stripping you of Imaan. This is done systematically throwing difficult topics at you. Now if you give in, chances are you will lose your Imaan.
In such instances what do we do?
Quraan Shareef teaches us how to respond:
Quran – Surah No. 22 الحج
Ayah No. 68
وَاِنۡ جَادَلُوۡكَ فَقُلِ اللّٰهُ اَعۡلَمُ بِمَا تَعۡمَلُوۡنَ (68)
Translation:
And if they dispute with you, then say, “Allah knows best what you do.”
Quran – Surah No. 22 الحج
Ayah No. 69
اللّٰهُ يَحۡكُمُ بَيۡنَكُمۡ يَوۡمَ الۡقِيٰمَةِ فِيۡمَا كُنۡتُمۡ فِيۡهِ تَخۡتَلِفُوۡنَ (69
Translation:
Allah will judge between you, on the Day of Judgment, about what you used to differ in.
