If you find yourself suffering from the dilemma of expressing an unpopular truth or having a different opinion in this era of spreading lies, then it can be a cause of deep wounds not only in your heart but also in your soul.
Because in this society, it is common for people to consider expressing a difference of opinion as a declaration of war, they hold onto prejudices in conversations and debates, they compare historical evidence to slander, and if someone goes against the commonly accepted beliefs, the intensity of their attack increases exponentially.
Similarly, groups with irrational and pointless conflicts, when unable to find an appropriate response to your words, label you as biased, one-sided, and even issue fatwas, going as far as to say “pray that on the day of judgment, your fate is the same as theirs.”
What nonsense is this? Those who engage in such irrational and pointless conflicts should realize that advocating for correctness in a matter does not automatically make us biased and partial.
If someone dislikes you for the sake of someone else, will you reject their good and positive aspects due to the preference for someone else? Will you deny historical truths and clear facts and instead issue admonishments by saying “make this prayer so that your fate in the afterlife is the same as their fate”?
Why? Is everything you see only black and white? Isn’t there a middle ground? If there is goodness in a bad person, should it be hidden under the veil of your desires?
Who knows what someone’s fate in the next world will be, and why should we become partners in someone’s good or bad fortunes? How should we conduct ourselves with them in the field of reckoning?
How can we criticize others for positives while ignoring their negative aspects? This strong intent not only reflects how silly and pointless it is but also the shallowness of their arguments and the presence of deceit.
Not everyone has the capacity to accept history as it is. History is a very ruthless subject, in which many bitter truths come out, and if you are a true seeker of history, you should have enough capacity and breadth within you to find the complete truths of history without prejudice.
During the study of history, there is no leader, guide, head, or signpost. Everyone stands on equal footing with evidence, and you need to have a fair approach in your search for truth. Only truth prevails in history.
History does not know of your opinions, there are very few people whose actions or work are flawless. That’s why we should not only have an emotional attachment with our favorite figures but also keep our minds open and be prepared to accept the good and bad, qualities and faults, or mistakes of our “guides.”
It is possible that we are displeased with many historical figures, and it may seem that their overall conduct is bad and wrong, but if there is a good aspect to them, we cannot ignore it, even if it may not have any impact on the “bad personality.”
History can provide many lessons and many signs for the future for those who are coming. If you also have a passion for knowledge and history, but only want to see the truth according to your desires, then with apologies, you should only read specific stories and lore, or poetic verses that beautifully mix the grounds of heaven and earth for the relevant personalities.
Because you do not have the patience and passion to reach the truth, if you want to know the truth, keep your heart big and your mind open so that, by not getting caught up in trivial truths, you do not inadvertently give this taunt, “May your fate in the afterlife also be the same as theirs!”
