Loving Others

Assalamu aleykum wa rahmatullah wa barakatuh,

We must come together as Believers and stop squabbling about our differences. We are all at different levels in our path to God and only God knows where we stand. God's plan for us is to love each other and show that love.

“Do not judge others, so that God will not judge you, for God will judge you in the same way you judge others, and he will apply to you the same rules you apply to others. Why, then, do you look at the speck in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the log in your own eye?" ~Matthew 7:1-3

"For behold, unto God will be their return, Then it will be for (only) God to call them to account." ~Quran 88:25-26

"Those who believe in the Qur'an, those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Sabians, Christians, Magians, and Polytheists,- God will judge between them on the Day of Judgment: for God (alone) is witness of all things." ~Quran 22:17

"And those who strive in Our paths to find God,- God will certainly guide them to our Paths: For verily God is with those who do right." ~Quran 29:69

"O mankind! We created you from a single (pair) of a male and a female, and made you into nations and tribes, that ye may know each other (not that ye may despise each other). Verily the most honored of you in the sight of God is he who is the most righteous of you. And God has full knowledge and is well acquainted with all things." ~Quran 49:13

May Allah, subhanna wa ta'alla, guide us on the right path. Ameen.
