| Answer: No, I do not think so. In fact, I think that one
must find ways to develop friendship with them and induce them to ponder on
certain basic questions of life. Who knows this might make them realise that
they are wrong. In general, people who seem to have deviated from the right path
deserve more sympathy and concern. A practising Muslim naturally feels disturbed
when he sees such people. However, this disturbance should not drive him away
from the person. In fact, it should kindle in him the spark to help his brother
in seeking the truth. We should remember that deep down every person is the
ingrained perception of God. People try to forget Him, but I don’t think that
they really can. He continues to make His presence felt. So, if sincere efforts
are made, a person can rediscover God. |
