AsiaFinest Islamic Society Options

[tengkuafif]

About
The AsiaFinest Islamic Society was set up to provide a vehicle for committed AsiaFinest Muslims to combine their knowledge, skills and efforts for the benefit of one another and AsiaFinest chatters as a whole, through the promotion of Islam and Islamic values.

Islam and Muslims
Islam is a religion with a spiritual message that connects man with his one, true Creator. Through consciousness of Him Islam dissipates moral disease such as greed, egotism and self-indulgence.
AsiaFinest Islamic Society realises that at present many Muslims are absorbed in the stale historic debates and distractions with minor issues, which have held them back for centuries. These debates have little relevance to other AF chatters or the essence of the true Islamic faith. Instead, AsiaFinest Islamic Society sees Islam as a dynamic force, which inspires its followers to actively engage in society, bringing to society a sincere concern for its betterment and a message of tolerance, peace and optimism.

AsiaFinest Islamic Society wants to assist Muslims in their desire to live up to the teachings of their faith. Islam inspires its adherents to broaden their outlook and strengthen ties with their creator. A realisation of the deeper meaning to life, the importance of intentions and the wider consequences of actions leads to a shift in the character of a God-conscious Muslim. He or she becomes more sincere, thoughtful, responsible and caring.

We hear much talk these days of patriotism, and from some prominent journalists, the accusation that all Muslims are disloyal and even constitute a fifth column in this world. We cannot deny that these hateful sentiments find support in the violent behaviour of some misguided Muslims, but they number no more than a handful. On the basis of this tiny number it is inconceivable that an entire minority, two million in population, should be labelled "disloyal"- this is mere hatemongering. What we must not overlook is the deeper meaning of patriotism. Many people, through for instance, their avoidance of taxes, show their greatest loyalty lies towards their own selves and to their comfortable lives: they serve their personal interests above those of the greater society. AsiaFinest Islamic Society on the other hand, assists Muslims to live up to Islam and so become motivated towards a sincere concern and desire to help the wider society. This is a deep and genuine patriotism.

Who should join?
Study of the world's religions will lead to an understanding of religious diversity.Understanding will lead to inter-religious dialogue.Dialogue will lead to peace among religions.Peace among religions will lead to peace among nations.

AsiaFinest Islamic Society welcomes all Muslims and non-Muslims, helping them understand Islam and live by its teachings and principles. We strongly believe that working for Islam is not just about campaigning for Muslim rights, but also about sharing Islam's view on God, life and society. We do so as an organised and dedicated group, engaging in sincere and constructive dialogue.

Proud to be a Muslim Women

For Muslim men and women, for believing men and women, for devout men and women, for true men and women, for men and women who are patient and constant, for men and women who humble themselves, for men and women who give in charity, for men and women who fast, for men and women who guard their chastity, and for men and women who engage much in Allah's praise, for them has Allah prepared forgiveness and great reward. (33:35)

Oooooo....I got an invitation to join! Thanks Tengku! What's the menu today???

I am dying for nasi biryani.... yums!

[Majapahitans]

Assalamu 'alaikum Bang Tengku
Thanks for the invitation...
I agree with you..., let's spread Islam's true nature: As-Salaam means "Peace" or "Surender" to the will of God.
May peace be with you all brothers and sisters..,

Don't let extremist hijack the name of Islam.
But I warn you...., I expect there's might be some ignorant "Islam haters" here in AF Forum.
Possibility of flaming is high.
So we must be patience on explaining Islam to them.

Sabaaar....,
rite....

[tengkuafif]

Welcome,majapahitans.Welcome.
Yeah,it's our duty to explain to those who don't know about Islam.
It's a pleasure to have you as a member,by the way.
