A Time For Change

[jazzpoetry]

Some things have been brought to my attention. Some people obviously misinterpret things and so now is a time for change. To further make sure no one else is confused about anything any time soon, I will be more careful how I respond to certain individuals and the way I word my responses

Thank you. That's nice to hear from someone. I'm afraid I have to be brief in my response. I hope you understand. I don't want to give gossipers fuel for their fire

i think its very rude of you to bring scripture into this.
but besides that, beef certain people have with you doesn't need to be brought to everyone's attention on lj.
as a woman i have a problem with you making judgements on another woman's modesty.
your attempt at judging others behavior is out of line and that's all im going to say.

stop playing police for god.
salaam.

Well I think its rude for you to insult me and to be spreading gossip! The sister, whoever the mystery sister is, said something to you NOT TO ME and when you asked me about it you said "Me and SOME SISTERS" as in you had a big discussion group about this. Gossiping is a sin. I brought scriptures into it to show you the folly of your ways. We live by the scripture and if you don't like it, I don't know what to tell you.

I'm gonna defend my honor against gossip and backbiting, two clear sins in Islaam!

You have a problem with me making judgments on another woman's modesty? Well I don't remember doing that but in turn I have problems with YOU making judgments and spreading rumors and gossip about MY modesty!

It goes both ways. Remember, when you point the finger you have THREE fingers pointing back at you!

excuse me?
WHAT?!

email me or im me.

[zahrasays]

now that i think about it, nevermind.
just dont talk to me ever again please.
i dont think i can stand any more of your guilt trips for something i never did. i dont think i can stand you turning this around acting like your honor is the one that has been hurt.
take care
bye.

Can you please stop talking about how I'm not chaste and I don't cover myself? I don't go outside naked or dress in anyway that wouldn't be considered modest. It's also a sin for you to talk about a woman and her 'chaste' when you know nothing about her. It actually really hurts my feelings that you said that stuff about me. Thanks.

Was I talking about you? I didn't realize I named names. Oh I didnt so how do you know I was referring to you? I merely am commenting on these rocky road Muslims I have seen lately. Trust me, it does WAY beyond you.

But also it hurts my feelings that I get accused by some unknown Muslim sister (because htey have yet to ask me THEMSELVES) of FLIRTING with them when all I've ever done was try and be polite to all Muslims, male or female; young or old.

I'm starting to agree with the fundamentalist view that men and women should stay seperate if they are not married or related because it protects a man from being accused of things he never did nor intended to do

Because someone told me that you were talking about me. Duh. You were flirting with me. Remember .. your friends said to come to California and marry me? If what you said to me wasn't flirting what the heck was it then? I don't have to ask you 'are you flirting with me?' to know if you're flirting or not.

Re:

Someone told you that I was talking about you?! And thats not gossip? I wasn't flirting with you. My friend did I say I should but thats not flirting. Was your asking me to come there flirting??
