right or wrong?

assalamualaikum...peace to all...


One could always ask, what is right,and what is wrong.It will make a person sounded very philosophically wise.But, it seems the answer for that question is rarely an easy one.Being a Muslim of course, I have certain guidelines to be followed as provided by Islam's way of life.Unfortunately,Islam is not the only way of life among the earthlings.There are other religions,other different pact of thinking, etc.Even among the Muslims theres constant arguments in finding the best way to practice their religion.

Getting a mutual agreement on the definition of right and wrong is troublesome indeed.A deed considered right/good in one side of the world could turn out to be something very disgusting and humiliating at the other end of the earth.

An example which has gotten my attention is regarding the homosexuality issue.theres a country in Africa that despised the homosexuals real much that they even considered issuing death penalty to those group of people.Meanwhile, in most western countries, even just by questioning the sexual orientation of an individual would put you in lots of troubles..'discriminating'.thats what you'll be charged of.

Quoting from a renowned Malaysian Sasterawan, of which I couldnt agree more: "Maybe thats why God created the Hereafter, so that the right and wrong,the good and bad, could be distinguished clearly.For that there are only Heaven and Hell.One can only choose either of those.No other escape route"
