lulla Posted December 23, 2002 I believe in honesty but i don't think it is the best policy.I mean what is the truth anyway?Your truth might not be my truth, so how do we decide what is the truth exactly? sometimes i have hard time deciding weather i should be honest or not?what if i hurt someone else's feeling, what if i say the wrong thing,what if someone hate me because of it? Most people nowdays do not tell the whole truth.They either leave something out or add something to it.This honesty thing is a very slippery slope. We all say we are honest. We all expect honesty from others. So, the question is, should we always be honest with everyone we contact?The answer is, probably not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mujahida Posted December 23, 2002 Lies can be proven to be lies when they are stood next to the truth, and no matter if ur a dummie or blind or deaf " the truth has no dark lines it's clear, You can feel it in ur heart when U know that someone is liying and the same when someone is telling the truth. and ur right sometimes it's difficult to tell the truth " as u said u can hurt someone , but remember that " there is no shame in a truth" Truth can be blamed but cannot be shamed. So tell it for Allah will love you for it. be honest in everything u do sista even if it'll kill u for it's better to die with it then without it. Remember this quote " Though a lie be swift the truth over takes it ". and don't we all know how the truth's always at last comes out even if u stored it deep within the Ocean it'll come out if not tomorrow then the day after if not in weeks then in years. Truth is mighty and will prevail. Salam Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hibaad Posted January 3, 2003 Well i don't know if it works but i rather be honest and sometimes ppl don't like to hear the trut but its what they need in the long run. U know what they say qof wax ku siyaa wuu badan yahay lakin qof runta kuu shugaa baa yar or something along the lines of that, anyways i think honesty is the best policy even if it does hurt sometimes. I have been asked enought times by my friends plzz don't be so honest sometimes but i think one day ppl just thank u for being honest even if they don't like what they hear. I personally rather be told the trut no matter what. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mombasa_QUEEN Posted October 3, 2004 The words IS HONESTY THE BEST POLICY tells you all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OG Moti Posted October 4, 2004 "Honesty is not always the best policy" everyone knows that.... unless people like to lie to themselves... 1. You cheated on you beloved wife.. she loved you so much and you love her.. if you tell her, you lost her respect and life will never be the same for both of you... Solution dont tell her, but never do it again.. 2. You like your friends partner, if you tell your friend he will never trust you again and your friendship is over Solution try to forget the idea of liking her and accept that she/he is with your friend.. so these are two simple examples how honesty could not be the best policy... but avoid every bad thing and do the good things like our dear religion tells us... Keep Allah in mind and you never have to guess wheather to tell or not to.. peace Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hot_chocolata Posted October 4, 2004 When I first read this post the words ' psycho' and 'deranged' were flying thru my head. No offence to lulla..i mean u seem like a nice girl, but it's just cos for some reason, in this day and age, there is no such thing as the truth. And for someone to be that confused over something which has almost become a myth...that was just wierd..even a little spooky. Lulla take my word for it unless you happen to stumble across a very unqiue and defined person there is minimal chance that someone will tell you the truth. And i know this sounds cynical, but thats the way the world has turned. So i think wether you lie or tell the truth..no one really gives a f*!k anymore.

Wiilo Posted October 4, 2004 well lulla, I think that Honesty is the best policy, there is an old saying that says "The truth sets you free" well, you are right when you say "My truth may not be your truth" yeah, but always being sincere and honest is good. Remember our Prophet Mohammed(SCW,)one of his names was "Muhammedul Amiin" do you know why he had that name, because he was honest human being, he always used to tell the truth no matter what. You are right, when you tell the truth people would hate you but remember ALLAAH would love you simpe by telling the truth, no matter what people say or if they hate you for that matter. Always tell the truth because it is the best. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Qac Qaac Posted October 5, 2004 tell the trueth even if is against you.. trueth is the trueth.. even as a joke, tell the trueth... lies evaporate after short time, but trueth stays for long time.. runta dadka way kugu nacaan, laakiin who cares. as a mu'min we are told, mu'min never lies. so be honest all the time.
