We Are Human Being
Today around 12 o'clock I was waiting for tram arrival. Suddenly an aged woman sat beside me.
She asked me, " Where are you from ?"
I said, " I am from Bangladesh".
Then she said, "I am wondering you are a Muslim."
I asked her, " How do you know that I am a Muslim ?"
She replied, " It's my assumption."
I said, " Ya, your assumption is perfect. "
Then she said, " I am a Catholic ."
I said to her, " It's my pleasure to meet you."
The tram was making delay. That's why she wanted to talk to me more.
Then she told me, "Why some Muslim people kill others? Is it allowed in Islam? Or Does Allah said to do something like that?"
I said, "No" It's not true at all. How a true God can give permission to kill others without any reason. The people who are doing such type of things they are not Muslim at all. They are out of their sense. They are crazy. "
Then I told her, " Our main identity is we are all human beings. Look at yourself, "What is different between you and me?" You are a woman and I am a man. We have same feelings. We are enjoying the same sunshine . We are living under the same sky. Might be our believes are little bit different than each other. Why should we fight with each other for a minor matter."
Then she put her hand on my hand. She said, "My heart is soothed to talk to you" I should not afraid of Muslims anymore."
The tram had arrived . We did see off each other. She was looking at me and waving her hands. After a while the tram left that place.
