well that understandable … when u read the Malocom X rahimaho Allah u will see clearly the affect on him cause of Hajj .. from a black racial to Islam ,,,

i notice some one talking about Wahabi … is following Mushammad peace be upon him Wahhabi … and there is no shia where u said they are Rafidah ( Ethna Ashryah) small villages in the east and Bahrain Kwait actualy Muslims in Iran more in population (Ahl alsunnah ) in Ahwaz the other side in the Arabic gulf ,,,, so no need to lie to muslims ,,, and Rafidah known well all muslims sow what they do to Muslims in Iraq ,,,

about driving and Hijaz ,,,, insha Allah u need to know that they is no driving for women in Saudi … do u mind if we see that is good for our community ? or that is the measurment of advance for u

i wonder if adultry in anme of Zawaj Almuttaah ( marraige for houres) is more the good measurment about civilizing ,,, or hitting kids and women also men with sowrds in Ashuraa then cover them with blood is this showing open minded … is that Islam ?!!!!

Subhan Allah ,,, may Allah guide us to the right path

Lurker,

“Sravanadhyayanarthapratishedhat smritescha I.3.38 (101)

And on account of the prohibition in Smriti of (the Sudras) hearing, studying and understanding (the Veda) and performing Vedic rites (they are not entitled to the knowledge of Brahman).

Sravana: hearing; Adhyayana: studying; Artha: understanding; Pratishedhat: on account of the prohibition; Smriteh: in the Smriti; Cha: and.

The same discussion on the Sudras’ right is concluded here.

The Smriti prohibits their hearing the Veda, their studying and understanding the Veda and their performing Vedic rites. “The ears of him who hears the Veda are to be filled with molten lead and lac.” For a Sudra is like a cemetery. Therefore the Veda is not to be read in the vicinity of a Sudra. “His tongue is to be slit if he pronounces it; his body is to be cut through if he preserves it.” Sudras like Vidura and the religious hunter Dharma Vyadha acquired knowledge owing to the after effects of former deeds in past births. It is possible for the Sudras to attain that knowledge through the Puranas, Gita and the epics, Ramayana and Mahabharata which contain the quintessence of the Vedas.”

This terror plagued passage can be found here.

So please notify the SM Intern and all the other SM volunteers. Please don’t stop there, my friend. Raise awareness of this horror, and perhaps, we, together, can nullify/eradicate/erase/reverse this shame. Hopefully, no more of God’s children will have to suffer due to this superstitious belief.

Moulten lead? Some Brahmin is probably thinking “that’s a lot of money!”.

Erudite indeed.
