Regards Group of concerned Muslims. Reply May Allah guide us all to the path of His liking. I, or my associates, do not claim to be correct in all our opinions. We present our opinions based on our understanding of the Qur'an and the Sunnah of the Prophet (pbuh). Our opinions can be wrong. However, we cannot know about the incorrectness of our opinions unless brothers like you point out our mistakes. I would therefore appreciate if you would be kind enough to point out the basis of your differences with us. You write: "We will be visiting your site on a regular basis and if we find out that this is still going on, we will have to do something about it." Your regular visit to our site will be an honor for us. However, we feel obliged to present the opinions which is correct according to our own understanding of the Qur'an and the Sunnah of the Prophet (pbuh), not the opinion which you or anyone else holds to be true. Therefore, I would suggest that the appropriate way is to give your reasons for the differences that you may have with our opinion. I think it is the only way we may be able to resolve any difference that we may have. It is also the only way we will be able to understand the incorrectness of our opinion, if that is truly the case. May Allah reward you for your sincere efforts in communicating the true teachings of Islam. The Learner
