I mentioned it to you from first don't wash off your hands saying no use arguing as I am a non believer. Its not you alone but all the theist world wide come up with the same excuse when it comes to arguing with the atheist. Don't you stupids understand that the argument has to happen between the believer and the non believer only. If we both believe in the same why would we argue.

I will get to you in a little bit. Please be patient. (For some reason my previous response to you vanished into the ether).

There was no need to label us as STUPID, when many were part of this debate. You have proved to be no different then US stupids either.

Labbaik Ya Mowla. I will listen and obey for I am one of those who you should take care of but have not yet. May Imam Hussein remind you on Ashara that I exist. I recite sura "wadhuhaha wa lailee iza sujaha".

Labbaik ya Mowla, when you are comfortably ordained and remind us of Imam Hussein in his distress and in anguish praying to Allah "where are those who I trusted in and who should have been with me" I will remember that labbaik ya dai al-Allah you also have foresaken me.

Ya Hussein, please remember me in Ashura when I pray that your Dai has forsaken us as you were foresaken on Ashura by those who pledged to be with you.

Ya Hussein, Ya rabi Hussain, why did you die only to leave behind dai who do not believe what you died for.

Wa lah fatah ya husseina, ya seyeda shodai is what I am left chanting.

Yet my soul will not reach you for it has no one to guide me to you any more.

Salaam Ya Hussein.

A man asked Imam ar-Rida [a], “Why was the Prophet’s nickname Abul Qasim?”
ar-Rida said, “It was because he had a son named Qasim. That was why his nickname was Abul Qasim.”
The man asked him, “O son of the Messenger of Allah! Do you consider me worthy of more explanation?”
ar-Rida said, “Yes. Don’t you know that the Messenger of Allah [s] said, “Ali and I are the fathers of this nation.”
The man said, “Yes, I do.”
ar-Rida said, “Don’t you know that the Messenger of Allah is the father of the entire nation, and Ali is one of the members of this nation?”
The man said, “Yes.”
ar-Rida said, “Don’t you know that Ali is the 'Qasim', or the divider between Paradise and Hell?”
The man replied, “Yes.”
ar-Rida said, “Then that is why the Prophet [s] is called Abul Qasim - as he is the father of the divider between Paradise and Hell.”
The man asked, “What does this mean?”
ar-Rida replied, “The kindness of the Prophet [s] for his nation is like that of a father for his children. The noblest member of his nation is Ali [a]. And after him, the kindness of Ali [a] for the nation is like the kindness of the Prophet [s], since he is the Prophet’s Trustee, Successor and the Proof after the Prophet [s]. That is why the Prophet [s] said, “Ali and I are the two fathers of this nation.”
