Lecture 6 The Practical Aspects of His Life and its Practicality Part-41

Prophet and forgiveness:

In the battle of Uhad, the Muslims were forced to retreat under severe pressure of the enemy. The holy Prophet himself was surrounded by the enemy. He was attacked from all sides by stones, arrows and swords, He lost a tooth. Some pieces of his helmet pierced his cheeks, his face was covered in his own blood.

Even at that moment he was heard praying to Allah for his enemy, saying,“How can those people gain salvation, who are bent upon murdering their own Prophet? O Allah! show my people the right path, because they don’t know me yet” This is the sermon of the Mount Olives:‘Love thy enemy!’ in actual practice, and not just a beautiful poetic expression.

lbn Abd Yalil, the chieftain of Taif, whose clan had tortured the holy Prophet, came to Madinah with a delegation. The holy Prophet welcomed him and had his tent pitched in the court of his holy mosque. He honored him with a daily visit after the isha prayers each night. Who was this man? The same who had mocked at him in Taif and stoned him! That is “Love thy enemy and forgive him.”

The sanctuary of the holy Kaaba was the place where the leaders of the Qureish had assembled and decided that Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon him) should be assassinated. That is where he was laughed at. They had thrown rubbish over him while he was praying there.

Fall of Makkah:

After the fall of Makkah, it was the same place where all of them were standing vanquished before him, their heads bowed in shame. They included those who had done everything in their power to eliminate the Muslims and those who had written lampoons to mock at their holy Prophet (Peace be upon him); those who used to call him names, who had rejected him as a Prophet;

Those who had thrown stones on him and spread thorns in his path; those who had drawn swords on him; those who had killed his innocent loved ones and mutilated their bodies; those who had tortured the poor Muslims by branding their bodies with hot iron, dragging them over the hot sands of Makkah, burning them over flaming coals and piercing their bodies with spears.

All those criminals were now standing with bowed heads before Prophet Muhammad surrounded by ten thousand Muslim warriors with swords drawn, waiting for a signal from their commander (Peace be upon him). Addressing the Qureish, he asked “O Qureish! Tell me what I shall do with you today?

‘They said,“Muhammad You are our noble brother. You are our noble nephew.” He said,“I say to you what Allah‘s Prophet Joseph had said to his callous brothers: This day let no reproach be (cast) on you. Go your way for you are free!’”

That is how enemies are forgiven and loved. That is Prophet Muhammad’s way of teaching love and forgiveness, not by beautiful words alone but through actual practice and personal example for the world to follow

You're all heart. That is, thinking 30 million without healthcare is ok.

On a more practical note (and a fairness note), I think everyone should pay at least what they can.

I'm not ok with free-loaders.

Therefore Obamacare is the answer, unless you have a better idea.

Where do our 30 million uninsured fly for care?(Hint: it starts with E and ends with R.)

Canada has a higher satisfaction than we do.

Our highest satisfaction rate is with Medicare patients.

Medicare for all.

Again, unless you have a better idea. Do you?

Hint: freedom doesn't count as an answer.

30 million without doesn't equal 30 million free loaders.
I don't have insurance and I don't free load, Doctors are a waste ill give you a real example.
Patient complains that food is getting stuck in esophagus.
Doctor orders camera down throat, results, nothing there.
patient still complaining
Dr takes x-rays, results, nothing wrong
patient still complaining, 6 months now
Dr orders barium test
results, normal.
Now 8 months later doctor states that there is nothing he can do, must be stomach gases causing air bubble in esophagus, take over the table anti-acid drug for the rest of your life.

True story want to know the fix?

1 bottle of Bragg apple cider vinegar $6.99
1. teaspoon twice daily.
results, immediate
no further problems reported.

How much money was wasted?

Interesting story but doctors do what they are trained to do so don't expect them to tell you to use home remedies.

Once I bit my lip and a polyp came up. I went to the doctor and got a prescription and filled it. Problem remained even after a second visit. My wife said to me try apple cider vinegar. It worked.

I thought SC was the crazy state.

Not to mention, SC's Senator's latest comments to the president:

Graham responded to Obama’s comments by e-mail just as the press conference concluded.“Mr. President, don’t think for one minute I don’t hold you ultimately responsible for Benghazi,” Graham said in a statement.“I think you failed as Commander in Chief before, during, and after the attack.”

So you're saying doctors can't help with every single problem?

Ok - fair enough.

I think they would agree.

In family medicine, these patients are known as "The Worried Well."

Also, negative test results don't prove the doc is ineffective.

The doc has an obilgation to "rule out" potentially serious conditions.

If he had missed esophageal cancer, I imagine you'd also have a problem with that.
