Assalamu Alaikum,

Welcome to the forum, Sister herjihad.

I will try to reply your queries. If at all there was a reason not to publicly show your suspension, it was only to achieve a positive effect in you. There was nothing negative aimed at you in this case. We publicly show all members who have been banned. The secrecy, and I would repeat if there was any reason behind that, was only to bring about healthy outcome. Speculations made in this regard in this thread are not correct. Speculations are often misleading; therefore, it is always better to speak something with support of evidence.

Let us look at the following rule:

As is evident, scholar bashing is not allowed here. It is NOT part of Islam.

"And of men and Ad­Daw�b (moving living creatures, beasts, etc.), and cattle, in like manner of various colours. It is only those who have knowledge among His slaves that fear All�h. Verily, All�h is All­Mighty, Oft­Forgiving." Qur�an 35:28

"O you who believe! Obey All�h and obey the Messenger (Muhammad SAW), and those of you (Muslims) who are in authority. (And) if you differ in anything amongst yourselves, refer it to All�h and His Messenger (SAW), if you believe in All�h and in the Last Day. That is better and more suitable for final determination." Qur�an 4:59

Time and again, it has been made clear by many moderators including myself, yet some members are not following this rule. Why is it that?

If you don�t agree with a scholar on any issue, please do so respectfully while backing your view from reliable sources. That will be fine. No opinion or even Islam can be forced upon anyone. But, outright rejection of Islamic scholarship without proper evidence, misplacing all the blame on scholars, mocking them etc. comes under "scholar bashing."

We may not agree on many things, but we should learn to discuss respectfully. That is where lies our unity for a common cause, for justice and peace. When we speak here, entire world listens to us, but we fail and fail again to deliver what we want to deliver. Allah has blessed us this opportunity to convey the message of Islam to entire humanity, let us utilize this moment.

Finally, regardless of how hard we try to properly enforce rules, please understand that we may never become error free due to nature of this job; we can only keep improving gradually, and that is what we strive to do by the grace of Allah.

I hope we all would stick to the guidelines.

May Allah help us and guide us all.

Peace

Thank you for your reply.

Peace, Hanan
