Bismillah,

Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

This is a comment.  Feel free to comment.

Salaamu Alaykum

Power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely
 
 
An observation that a person’s sense of morality lessens as his or her power increases. The statement was made by Lord Acton, a British historian of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.   1

"A sence of morality lessons as the power increases"   that is so true, the scariest thing is that it could easily happen to anyone- even the most faithful and pious could slip.  I know some doctors that 'evolved' a non-islamic actions and personalities as they got more power with money.

May Allah keep us from that disease.

Bismillah,

All moderators and administrator:

Please develop a new forum specifically for atheists and anti-Muslims and people who want to spend their time discussing the issues they bring up.

I initially addressed this to you, Brother Peacemaker, on such a topic because I had the impression that you are a moderator.  I had that impression because of the topic you closed on Hijab last week.

Jazzak Allah Khair.  Salaamu Alaykum.

Well said sister Herji, I really hope he hadn't closed it just because of my comment previous to that,  I was just making a remark to my younger sisses, that is all.....

Assalamu Alaikum,

Yes, I am one of the moderators. However, almost all decisions are made by mod/admin group after discussions. Moderators normally don’t make decisions on their own, and what you see on the forum , that could be credited to one or more of them, actually comes out after thorough consultation/discussion by the group behind the screen, something you don't see.

Peace

Then which of the favours of your Lord will ye deny?
