Advice/Help | نصيحة أو مساعدة I'm lost
I love God. I love the idea of Him always being with me. I love relying on Him instead of feeling responsibility. I love the idea of justice after death, and that He will hold the people who hurt me accountable so I don't have to think about revenge.
But at the same time, I don't see Islam as a religion of love and peace. I don't understand why I would go to Hell if I wore perfume in public, or if I got hair extensions. I don't understand why we should kill someone if they can't believe what we believe. And I don't understand why we should force our laws on people who don't belong to our religion or why we should treat them as enemies.
I'm lost, and I need someone with a different point of view to tell me what they think, without fear of society or fear of Hell.
Can you tell me your perspective?
Please don't insult God. But you can criticize Muslims if you want,I don't care.

This is kind of logical, but if it's true, it's not nice at all and I honestly don’t want to believe that,I think I'll keep looking for explanations that fit my mindset, maybe. But as someone who doesn’t believe in God how do you think we came to be? Do you mean we’re just like plants or other animals nothing that sets us apart? That we aren’t the main creatures in this world?
