a dialogue passerby

He pointed out: “The early eighties, I spent more than three months in the British city of Brighton, in a training course, most of which were attended by Arabs. Among them was a Kuwaiti. Friendship developed between me and this Kuwaiti. We rent a car to drive around in different parts of Britain. I did not know that he was from a Shiite family except By chance.This happened during a passing conversation.The information passed without care after fifteen years, and with the development of the clamor of mobilization programs in the Kingdom, I remembered that my Kuwaiti friend was a Shiite and I was a Sunni and our neighbor on Al-Atayef Street was on suspicion of Shiites, and I knew that the Iraqi poet Muzaffar Al-Nawab is a Shiite, and every time I entered When I went to a mosque or attended a (blessed) lecture by a cleric (Mubarak), the Shiites are becoming more and more clear in my imagination.

advocate or old man religion

And he added: “My identity as a writer is more important than my identity as my age. I do not follow anyone who is more ignorant than me, whether he is a preacher or a religious sheikh. My identity as a scholar came from a history that I did not participate in its creation. My identity as a writer I made myself. I read a wide range of books on thought, philosophy and religion. I traveled to London, Paris, Helsinki and New York. In this wide world, I had friends and loved ones that I never asked about their religion and they did not ask me either.”

He explained: “I did not come to this world to be a Sunni or a Shiite. Before I was a Sunni, a Shiite or even a Muslim, I am a person among the diversity of my personality, my religion comes. I do not share with people only my religion, but I share with people my hobbies, tendencies and interests. I encourage the Crescent or victory because I “I love football. I will not hate Talisca or Ighalo because they are not religious. These are my friends who make me happy and make me happy. I will not go to church with them, it is not my business.”

Category doctrinal

He continued, “I can be a Muslim without people living around me. I may retire in the Empty Quarter and leave the rest of my life alone with God. God is present among these feuding human beings and is also present in all the retreats I want. In the Empty Quarter and in the North and South Pole.” Whoever told us to join groups in order to be Muslims and to have a sheikh or a mullah at our head, the latest book he read that was published 800 years ago, who teaches us how to enter the bathroom and how to leave it, teaches us how to sleep with our husbands, explains to us our dreams, and decides on whose pulpit whom we dislike and whom We love. God created in us consciences that are the basis of man, so that the right religion comes to complete the nobleness of this conscience, elevate it and purify it, not to reprogram us to enmities and blocs. When I see a person in pain, I help him immediately. I do not ask him about his religion or sect. Sectarian classification is a blatant attack on conscience.”
