DO NOT ARGUE IN VAIN

It is a waste of time to discuss about Deen without knowing Deen. This is because we discuss concerning Deen to get benefit. A discussion without knowledge is a sterile discussion that will not benefit anyone besides creating confusion. And very often such discussions end in fights and clashes.

Similarly, it is a waste of time when 2 people who have knowledge discuss concerning Deen without being ready to accept the truth. According to Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alaihi Wasallam), refusing to accept the truth emanates from pride. And according to another Hadith, pride is so grave that the value of a mustard seed of pride is sufficient to prevent a person from entering Jannah. Therefore, there is only one way to discuss Deen which is profitable. It is to discuss Deen with a mind and a heart filled with sincerity to understand. Otherwise, a beautiful beauty spot also will appear as an ugly mark.
