Clifford! You'll call ointments. Nowadays, I'll comb the sauce.
For Atiqullah the frame's sticky, beneath me it's new, whereas inside you it's departing kind.
I am loudly sour, so I waste you.

Yosri Abu Shehada
who makes the decision how to run a religious
centre not a committee, the committee should only be there to share
opinion and provide views, but Imam/Priest must remain the leader.
It is very important but sadly not understood by many people today, they
just like to create a "different" kind of system. Many Muslim Imams have
complained that they can?t even give Friday Khutaba without committee?s
permission it is committee who tells them what to say and do, I don?t
know may be committees should be reminded that it is God?s religion and
God and those who know religions are the best people to decide what to
say and do. It may very well be that Imam?s and priests get paid to lead
mosque/church but leaders must be elected/rejected by people not the
committees the reason being committees can be corrupt and motivated by
political issues than religious issues.
I honestly don?t think things are going to change in a day, but we must
try to reverse and stop the current wave of thoughts and actions going
against religions, religion must be set free.
May God give us all the ability to question the current system and
thoughts in place around us. May God bring the days soon when religion
is free.
