Serving God Should foster peaceful living amongst humans irrespective of the way we serve him.
Our Cohabitation together must not be threatened by sentiments or bias as our Religion preaches peace and that alone should serve as a foundation for peaceful coexistence.
Individual differences however can threaten our level of Intolerance for the other party but still we need to be happy together as our forefathers lived happily despite each of them worshipping one god or the other.
I believe we can build stronger relationships and partnerships if need be irrespective of what we believe and how we practice our Religion.
I attended a catholic school and the decision for a Muslim to attend such a school was mainly because the school was the best in our area then,but how many of us are ready to let our children go to school of the other religion just because the school is good? How many of my christian brothers and sisters now visit clinics and hospitals owned by Muslims even when the hospital/clinic is very good? Some people do state their preferences when it comes to issues where they can choose and have seen situations where people will only go for those that have the same Religious belief as them.
We need to Show the world and the next generation that we can successfully be together for a long time without troubles, an Injury to one should be an injury to all!
Furthermore, we need to take it easy when judging others especially on Religious issues, let’s give one another benefit of doubt and peace of mind!
May we always be happy!
