Shirin from Lebanon

Release your grip from Lebanon


Don't you have enough to deal with in Syria?
Do you feel good about the international isolation of your country? Do you feel good
about the Syrian slowing economy? You have tremendous problems of education and
illiteracy among the Syrian population. So why ruin Lebanon? How much longer will your
creeping hands manipulate the Lebanese scenario?
It is high time that you Take your sinful hand out of Lebanon, Stop the assassinations, stop
the transfer of weapons to Hezbollah, and leave our nation alone.

"Ashura"

It seems the war is over. We are still bleeding. Lebanon is cut and bruised. From outside and from within.Do we have to hurt ourselves just to prove our belief in Allah?
Do we have to suffer and cause others great pain, as part of our worship of Allah?
All people were created by Allah. Man was not created to suffer and to hurt other human beings. Any human being wants to live in peace and avoid pain.The great sword of Islam, for ages protected our great nation, but also shed so much Arab blood.
In Lebanon, Suna, Druze, Christians and Shia will have to learn to live together, to bridge the gaps of mistrust and misunderstanding.
Those who think that they can take over our country, and convert us all to the only truth that is their own, are wrong and dangerous.
May Allah help us at these hard times.

Shirin.
