This thread has been inspired by sister Muslim11, although it's not the same as the suggested Sf thread, thought I'd simplify it, by just keeping it easy flow. Keeping positive thoughts on everything and everyone, members can post whatever personal or whatever incident they like, and positive statements can be posted, not limited to any specific number or incident.
إن شاء الله

It is important to keep good thoughts on everyone, regardless of peoples true condition, bearing in mind that presuming and judging others in a negative light is a great sin.

I'll start by the following...

I rang my sister , she was abrupt on the phone and said she would call back in a few minutes, 3 days...and she still hasn't returned my call :-(

She was totally engrossed in something else and couldn't talk and "Shaitan" made her forget just like he made the companion of Musa (as) forget to mention where the fish left the basket.

One of my blog posts and most favourite example to help others understand why I think the way I do:


Disbeliever or Believer

A man approached a scholar and his Student and asked,


'What do you say of a man who doesnt aspire for paradise, doesnt fear hell & doesnt fear Allah?'

He eats dead meat (not slaughtered)?

Prays without Ruku or Sajda?

He bears witness to that which he can not see?

He hates the truth & loves his trials?

He escapes & runs away from Mercy?

He believes the Jews and Christians?

The scholar then asked his students what they thought of such a man.

All the students agreed that this was a clear description of a disbeliver.

The scholar then replied to his students and said "on contrary this is a description of a believer."


Amazing, How can such a person be a Believer?

The Greatest Imam, following the Greatest Rasul, with the teachings of his Beloved, always thinks good of every thing, never thinks with a negative attitude, always has an answer, always positive, always fearing Allah, Abu Hanifa.


He explains;

He aspires for the Creator of the Heavens & fears the creator of Hell. He fears no injustice from Allah.

He eats Fish.

He prays the Janazah.

He bears witness that there is no God but Allah & that Muhammad is his messenger, yet he has not seen either of them.

He hates the truth, which is death because he wishes to obey Allah longer.

The trials are his children & money.

Mercy is the rain.

He believes the Jews when they say that the Christians have nothing to stand for and he believes the Christians when they say that the Jews have nothing to stand for.


Abu-Hanifa

Always give them Benefit of the Doubt

Abu-Hanifa's mind, amazing. Think positive, think good of all people, be a true muslim judge.

The Best Example

As we know that the best person to have ever lived is the Prophet Muhammad (saw) and he is the best of example for mankind. If we follow him we can never go wrong. �isha رضي الله عنه the Prophet's wife described the Prophet's conduct as follows: "He was neither a obscene talker nor a user of bad words. He did not shout nor did he repay evil with evil. He used to forgive people and overlook their sins." (Tirmidhi). Final Advice: A beautiful saying of the Prophet (saw) that will ensure the protection of our tongue. The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: "Whoever believes in Allah and the Last day, LET HIM EITHER SPEAK GOOD OR KEEP SILENT"

Well this did actually happen....
She had just dropped a glass jar full of something in the kitchen and was busy cleaning when I phoned, next day she came down with the flu. So when I rang her again after a few days she was unwell.

Good positive thinking mashaallah, becauseyou got it right, she was actually engrossed in doing something when I phoned.

One (salafi-inclined) brother in Islam I know always said "we only judge a person by the apparent"

"How can we know for certain black is black and white is white if everything we're able to perceive is only half-truth? How can we judge the whole book just by viewing few pages then done? Could it be that there are some grand stories and background lies behind a person's mind, that leads him to do what he do -- how could we miss that?"

"We only judge by the apparent actions. That is what muslims do"

"Sorry sir, but judging the apparent is not the same with judging by assumptions. You clearly mistaken Umar's quote. If you only make conclusion based on limited observation and prejudice or a pre-conceived mind of how things SHOULD be, instead of how things REALLY ARE -- then you're judging by assumptions"

"I only follow the ijma. We judge by the apparent actions. If someone performed kufr in apparent, he is kufr. Whoever doubt the kufr of kufr is kufr himself. The apparent actions are sufficient proof. Period."

"Okay akhi .... Peace"

LOL :D

Yes abu Muhammad...

Think of this as therapy for your phobia of apple. I'm sure out of all the negatives listed in the gadget thread, you can say something positive.
