Although there are many trolls and atheists in R&S, there are also a lot of people who are sincerely interested in learning about other religions. Should we not spend more time over there to answer questions about Islam (to the best of our ability)?
[Quran 3:110 (Pickthall)] Ye are the best community that hath been raised up for mankind. Ye enjoin right conduct and forbid indecency; and ye believe in Allah. And if the People of the Scripture had believed it had been better for them. Some of them are believers; but most of them are evil-livers.
[Quran Surah Al-'Asr (Yusuf Ali)]
"By (the Token of) Time (through the ages),
Verily Man is in loss,
Except such as have Faith, and do righteous deeds,
and (join together) in the mutual teaching of Truth,
and of Patience and Constancy."
I remember when I asked my first "religion" question on Y!A... At the time, I already started researching Islam (as well as other religions), but I didn't even know that the Ramadan section existed, so I just asked a general question on R&S. Thankfully there was a Muslim who answered and I became even more interested in Islam. And alhamdulilah I reverted to Islam this year. Is it not better for the Muslims who are knowledgeable to spend more time in R&S instead of engaging in Polls & Surveys type questions & sectarian quarrels here in the Ramadan section?
Assalamu 'alaikum.
