NO TOPIC
Well This is the new No Topic Topic. π
For those who do not know, this place is to talk about nothing. Nada. Zilch. And everything else which according to you does not deserve it's own topic.
The other one was getting a bit long, and was just full of bickering now.
So we have a new start.
The bickering in the Old no topic should not be carried over to here.
EDIT - go to NO TOPIC the Third.

Ya'qub: do people call you a revert or convert and which one is correct?
NO TOPIC
Funzo β Sat, 26 Jan 2008 - 20:58
I would personally say revert in an islamic context due to people being born muslim until they are baligh however in non-islamic context he is a convert.

I prefer 'convert', but don't really mind either way tbh. If someone asks me 'how I reverted' or whatever, I will use that term so to make them feel at ease!
Some non-Muslims see the term 'revert' as arrogant and I don't want to come across as that. Plus, I would call someone a revert if the went back to the Religion they were bought up as, not to the 'state' that they were in at birth.
All plants and animals are 'Muslim' in that they submit to the will of Allah (swt), this is like the case of new-born babies; they do not have free-will and some name it that they act solely on 'instinct'. Whereas for me when a person 'chooses' a brand-new religion he/she will 'convert' to it.
But its not the most important issue to me - although I know some people who get quite jealous. One brother stormed out of the mosqur because someone insisted on saying 'convert'!!
The best term for me is 'Muallaf', because this is sunnah. This is how my close friends refer to each other when speaking together.

the prophet ο·Ί said every person is born in a state of fitra. many muslims take this hadith to mean that every child born is a muslim, wrong. the child is raised by the parents and islam is introduced to them and then later do they become muslim. so the concept that when a non muslim accepts islam they come back to their original religion is wrong cz there was never any religion in the first place. so they are converts and not reverts as they didnβt revert back to being a muslim. read this in a book by Shaykh Hamza Yusuf a while ago so donβt know how accurate what i wrote is, but you get the drift.

The tune sounds very similar to an Indian song, anyway....
I was listening to Shaykh Anwar Al-Awlaki's lecture and he was taking about how everyone is born as a Muslim but people sign the contract and others decline. I think that's how he put it.

You listen to them songs when you go past the videos shops, go into an asian-infested business, asian boys driving around with lovey dovey bolllywood songs (yes it does happen).
