VISUALLY IMPAIRED

UmmAminata wrote:   To Hanan You are a very rude and insulting person! How dare you slander me when you don't even know me? What type of Muslim are you? It is harram to lie, and slander people. For your information, not that owe you or anybody else anything, but since you are slandering me, I'd let you know that in order for me to read other people post I had to highlight their post and than paste and copy of my word pad document and than make it a larger font. And I used red color to make a point other than that I used black color. And the times that my font was small is because I changed it back before posting. This is too time consuming for me. So before you in your arrogant self righteous tone jump down my back, why don't you take a good hard look at your poor adab, and stop slandering people. You don't even know me, yet you're accusing me of something? How pathetic is your immature behaviour. And who in the heck did I ever tell to look up to me? For people who claim to be so religious you people lack compassion, and respect.

Dear Sister,

Why don't you read some past posts on the topics you've mentioned?  Most of us have been hit on the head with the rules.  It's not personal.  Well, it could be.  But what's the point of taking it that way?  Let's move on.  Do you realize that Angel is not Muslim?  Sister Hanan is, however.

Here's an idea:  We can say:  What you said was rude and insulting because...

I know it's hard really because I have topics that when people comment on them in totally senseless and cruel ways it gets my goat too.  But hey, it's a machine.  We can walk away and think about something before we post it.

Salaam alaikum

I thought I had unsubcribed from here?

At any rate, Sister HerJihad and Fatima, thank you for your naseehah. Both of you are right.  I should have been more calmer.  I was shocked to see such a hostile post from some one who has never met me nor spoken with me online what so ever. Next time I will " be slow anger" as the Prophet sws has advised us to.

I also did feel a bit attacked by the moderator. I felt that he was too harsh, and was singling me out. Perhaps he thinks I'm not a real Muslim. What's so confusing to me about me being admonished is that there was a young man who posted some very inapproiate language in the same discussion? And it appears that the moderator didn't agree with my views which is normal and to be expected however I thought moderators did not control the topics of content discussed unless particularly vile?

And I will say that I'm not a very technologically inclined person, and am not very good using computers. So I wasn't aware that I had other options.  My college studies didn't focus on technology except typing.

Thank you for understanding, and encouragement. And I will read through some of the older posts on the subject.

Although I think it would be wise to just lay low and refrain from comment. 

This was a good lesson for the naffs

Salaam o alaikum `

I think this website will be helpful for you.

Assalamu Alaikum,

UmmAminata:

I wanted not to respond here so that the matter may cool down. But, it seems it didn't while looking at the following link:

http://www.islamicity.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=7302& ; ;PN=1&TPN=6

you falsely charged me for couple of things ( such as I was harsh whereas I was polite, that I thought you were not real Muslim, whereas I never commented on your religion, that you were visually impaired and wanted me to be sensitive whereas I had no idea that you were visually impaired and I was only enforcing rules meant for everyone at the forum ).  

Peace
