Wearwhite Ready to Help People Grappling With Same-Sex-Attraction

This evening I met someone for the first time.

I received a msg from the wearwhite folks earlier in the day, requesting me to meet up with a person who was asking for help with Same Sex Attraction (SSA) my task was to befriend and recommend him to other agencies for follow-up.

He recounted his early years of grappling with SSA. It’s the classic story of an absent father figure and a domineering mother. Growing up, he too suffered from being bullied.

Amazingly, he had the force of will to not immediately succumb to the attraction. He read up and researched the issue, finding out a lot about it. It helped him grapple with the SSA, finding solace and comfort through worship and spirituality.

He’s a strong advocate of the view that SSA is primarily due to socialisation issues, not inborn. We were then met with a guy fr the entertainment industry, who recounted incidents whereby people he knew with SSA returning to fitrah, the natural disposition inherent in humanity. All he did was put the hashtag ‪#‎wearwhite‬ on his FB pg. they Came to him, he connected them to others and they too returned to fitrah.

They plan. And God plans. And God is the best of planners.

I believe tonight’s gathering was planned by God. To make people of very varied backgrounds and interests, come together with the intent of helping humanity.

I speak to all of us here. We are reaching out to one and all, regardless of your religion or race. If you are battling with SSA, and are looking for help, go to the wearwhite page, make contact. They can help you get in touch with sincere people who have gone through what you are going through. They have gone through the darkness and have seen the light. They are more than willing to help.

You can also PM me.

I make a special request. Can all here please share this posting on your walls? Wearwhite is here for you.

Come back to fitrah. Come back to the natural disposition and inner purity that God has created you with.

The ceasefire must remain to alleviate humanitarian suffering and to keep alive prospects of peace negotiation which are the only hope to break the cycle of violence and devastation once and for all.

Wearwhite Official Statement: Ways Muslims Can Show Support to Palestinians

Let us show compassion and extend our help to our Muslim brothers and sisters who are being brutally oppressed and mistreated – in Gaza specifically and also elsewhere like in Myanmar, Afghanistan, Chechnya, Kashmir, Iraq, Syria, indeed fee kulli makaan (wherever they may be). We can do this in the following ways:

1) If possible, on a daily basis perform the Taubah and Hajat prayers. Do so wholeheartedly. Let the tears of remorse and repent flow and wet your cheeks.

2) Find out the reality of what is happening in the affected countries. Do not merely depend on Mainstream Media. Make an effort to get information from other more reliable sources of information – especially from genuine Islamic resources.

Find out the historical and political background of the places in conflict. Spread the word through FB postings, etc. Talk to your friends and family members.

3) Boycott products of any company that support tyranny openly and directly in whatever capacity possible.

4) Recite the Qunut Nazilah regularly. It can be done in all fardh prayers – alone or in congregation. As it constitutes part of one’s salat, it must be done in Arabic. Find out how. It can also be done outside of solat.

5) Recite the zikr with all your heart and mind; Ya Muntaqim (Oh Ye Avenging One), Ya Qahhar (Oh Ye Imposing One) & Ya Jabbar (Oh Ye Powerful One).

6) Support and provide financial assistance/donations to aid organisations that practice transparency.

7) Liberate our hearts and minds, and any other form of attachment (financial or otherwise) to whatever parties directly or indirectly associated with the aggressors.

9) Let us close rank and build alliance between Muslim groups. Support any group that opposes the oppression by lawful means in Islam. Do not limit or narrow down the struggle. Any and all parties that show even tacit approval to the oppression, hold them accountable!

10) Avoid debates and arguments in issues of genuine khilaf (difference of opinions among ulama mu’tabar). Advise those who are engaged in the never-ending and unproductive debates to refrain from doing so. We need to come united and channel our energy in combating against bigger threats.

LATEST: Chinese Man Call Malays “Stupid and Poor”, “Extremist”

Thanks to a vigilant Singaporean, Rilek1Corner was alerted again on another racist and offensive comment by a male Chinese who goes by the name of ‘Issac Teck Shuean‘.

Issac who stated on his Facebook profile to be residing in Singapore and born in Johor, had called Malays “stupid and poor” and “extremist“.

Last month, another male Singaporean Chinese man, Peter Hu lodged a police complaint to say that he did not post an offensive comment on Muslims. In his attempt to cover up his insensitive remark, Peter Hu claimed that his account was “hacked”. In another posting he claimed that the image was “doctored”. Later on, he said that he was unaware of the offensive posting existence until his friends had informed him about it.

So which is the truth? One story, different information coming from the same guy.

Rilek1Corner was informed that Peter Hu who is openly gay, an avid PinkDot SG supporter and an LGBT activist, had previously argued with several anti-PinkDot activists in a Facebook group called ‘We are against PinkDot’.

The police are currently investigating this case.

Another female Singapore Chinese woman named ‘Kim’ who has an Instagram account ‘@kimmeeoow’ also said offensive remarks on Muslims and Malays.

She claimed her Instagram account was hacked. But preliminary investigations from netizens and tip-off from her friends have revealed that none of her social media accounts was hacked because she was posting as usual after she made those offensive comments. The police are also currently investigating this case.

Also in the hall of shame, we have Amy Cheong who was an employee of NTUC was terminated due to her tactless insensitive remarks on Malays.

Her insensitive comments have deeply hurt the Malay community and left a lasting impact thus far.

EDITOR”S NOTE

Thank you Abdul Malik Mohammed Ghazali for the contribution.

While we understand offensive comments made by non Malays/Muslims such as Peter Hu, Amy Cheong, Kimmeeoow, and now Issac Teck Shuean are not true reflection of majority, we the minority, cannot help but notice the increasing number of individuals who are unhappy towards both the Malay and Muslim communities.

Our advice: Keep those thoughts to yourself. Don’t share it on social media because chances are, you will be featured here. And the rest will be history.

Racism is not confined to one race – all communities need to join hands to end it. It is an issue ignored, downplayed and denied.

Let’s move forward. Let’s end racial prejudice and religious discrimination.

Confession of an Ex-Muslim Lesbian

Greetings R1C,

I have a confession to make. I was formerly a Muslim who was interested in girls. It starts because I was confused about myself. Ever since I was young, I know that I dun really like boys. I feel very strange when I look at the TV and see so many people kissing. I didnt understand why pretty girls would kiss boys. I never saw my mother kiss my father as they were divorced when I was very young.

When I was growing up I also dun understand why my friends like to go out with boys. I felt very lonely and kept this to myself until later when I was in secondary school. In sec 4, I met this nice girl and that was when I had my first kiss with another girl. I felt at that time like I truly loved her. She meant a lot to me. I know that Islam says LGBT is wrong but nobody reminded me and all the religious teachers didnt really talk about LGBT. Most of the Muslim religious preachers were silent about the dangers of LGBT so I was not aware of how much sin and danger I was in.

Anyway suddenly this girl disappeared and dun return my calls. I was so sad at that time. I saw her again 2 years later. I had been with a few other girls but broke up after another short term relationship. I asked her why she never returned my calls. She said that she had met this Pastor at her church. He was so wise and know so much about God and told her she was living in sin. I was at first unhappy and angry with him. When I first met him, I wanted to slap him. But he was very calm and listened to what I had to say.

He then invited me to one of his sessions at his church. It was so different from the religious classes I went to in the part time madrasahs that I went to. They were so open and welcoming and loving and supportive. It was also quite fun and joyful with a lot of singing. When I saw him speak, I realized that I could actually love a man. I also met alot of new friends who pulled me away from the sinful LGBT lifestyle. I am forever grateful to him and the church for opening my heart to God and leading me away from my sinful lesbian lifestyle.

Now I read about the wearwhite movement. Even though Ustaz Noor Deros may not be the pastor who converted me from my life of sin, I see that inside he is sincere, and this movement will attract people to turn away from homosexuality. Maybe if he was born earlier I could have left the LGBT lifestyle but remained a Muslim.

I hope our Lord grant the Ustaz with the strength in battling the evils of homosexuality and unnatural lust, and grace him and his followers with the knowledge that the only true marriage in the eyes of God is between one man and one woman (I left Islam partly because of the fact that someone pointed out that they support polygamy, which is a slippery slope to gay marriage, bestiality and pedophilia.) But I am glad that there are church leaders like Pastor Lawrence Khong who are standing up together with the Muslims to protect our morality.

Sincerely,
Rebecca Maryam
