‎Let Every Faith Walk Its Own Path
‎(Faith without interference)
‎
‎Prabir Gayen
‎
‎Allah created Muslims,
‎And Allah is worshipped by Muslims.
‎
‎Therefore, Muslims follow the path revealed through Allah.
‎
‎Muslims have no right to judge Hindus,
‎For Hindus are created by the Hindu God, not by Allah.
‎
‎And Hindus worship the images of their God,
‎Not the image of Allah;
‎Therefore, Muslims have no right to interfere.
‎
‎If Muslims wish to teach the Quran or Islam,
‎They should teach Muslims—
‎The good Muslim, the erring Muslim,
‎And the non-believing Muslim.
‎They should teach their own community.
‎
‎
‎Hindus worship their own Divine Reality,
‎The One Absolute Being manifested in countless names and forms.
‎
‎They worship the Infinite through Shiva, Vishnu, Brahma,
‎Through Kali, Durga, Lakshmi, Saraswati,
‎Through avatars, sages, and formless truth.
‎
‎Christians worship God through Christ.
‎Jews follow their God and their prophets.
‎
‎Sikhs follow the teachings of their Gurus.
‎Jains follow their own spiritual path.
‎
‎Each community walks according to its own faith.
‎
‎Muslims should guide Muslims according to the Quran.
‎
‎Hindus should guide Hindus according to their scriptures.
‎
‎Christians should guide Christians according to the teachings of Christ.
‎
‎Jews, Sikhs, Jains, and others should guide their own communities.
‎
‎No religion has the right to impose itself upon another.
‎
‎Muslims need not judge Hindus, Christians, Jews, Buddhists, Jains, or followers of other faiths.
‎
‎Likewise, Hindus, Christians, Jews, and others need not judge Muslims.
‎
‎Let each community reform itself, teach its own people, and preserve its own traditions.
‎
‎A Hindu worships the Divine in many forms and in the formless.
‎A Muslim worships Allah.
‎
‎A Christian prays to God through Christ.
‎A Jew worships according to Jewish tradition.
‎
‎Each person seeks the Creator through the path they have received.
‎
‎No one should insult another's worship.
‎No one should interfere with another's sincere faith.
‎
‎Judgment belongs ultimately to God, however each religion understands God.
‎
‎If people live according to their beliefs with honesty and respect, conflict can diminish.
‎
‎Let Hindus live according to their faith.
‎Let Muslims live according to their faith.
‎
‎Let Christians, Jews, Sikhs, Jains, Buddhists, and others live according to their faith.
‎
‎Respect one another's religious rights.
‎When a Hindu worships Krishna, Shiva, Kali, or Durga, he follows his own tradition.
‎
‎When a Muslim prays to Allah, he follows his own faith.
‎
‎When a Christian prays to God through Christ, he follows his own path.
‎
‎No one should be condemned merely for worshipping differently.
‎
‎Let every religion guide its own followers.
‎Let every community correct its own errors through learning, wisdom, and compassion.
‎
‎If people cease judging one another and begin respecting one another, peaceful coexistence becomes possible.
‎
‎Enough of hatred.
‎Enough of intrusion into the faith of others.
‎
‎Remain devoted to your own religion,
‎Respect the faith of others,
‎And allow every soul to walk the path it sincerely believes to be true.
‎
‎Let all live according to their beliefs,
‎And let mutual respect prevail.
