Whether, we believe in the same thing or not, the biggest reality in life is that we are all going to die.
AGREED?
If not why do most of us fear such a thing?
Now our beliefs may differ in regards to this. However, as soon as we will meet with this reality, we will come to know what the truth ever was.The truth can only take on ONE form and it is our responsibility as human beings to search what the truth is (with an open mind). Just because we do not personally agree with something, it does not prevent truth from still being the truth.
For example;
An employer gives his employee £10 and wants him to believe the money he has given him is really £100 (despite the fact it remains quite clear he was given a £10 note). Although, what he has been told sounds more appealing than the truth.Despite all his wishes or all his efforts the employee cannot believe a £10 note is in fact £100, simply because if he tried to spend this money, he would only get £10 worth of goods in return for his money. Therefore, a £10 note will always remain a £10 note (no matter what we try to call it).
The same way the truth can only be the truth, no matter how much we attempt to beautify falsehood and convince ourselves or others to believe that falsehood is the truth.Most of the inter-faith debates we have are because one claims to be more truthful in regards to their faith or beliefs than the other. I have observed many such debates and what I have come to realise is that the prime objective is usually to try and prove the other wrong, rather than actually going out there in search for the truth. Just because your come back or the language you use whilst presenting your case seems more convincing, if what the other person has spoken is the truth.No matter how much you try to disprove them, it will always remain the truth.
If you are firm in your belief what you are following is the truth, then your concern should not be about winning an argument, rather it should be about whether deep down, have you been able to convince yourself with it?
Sometimes what happens is that the followers of falsehood, deep down know what they are following is not true. However, because of the fulfilment of selfish desires and evil motives they will never admit they are wrong. Since it will ruin they own credentials in the world, with the potential of a causing huge amount of damage to their own egos. So that is why, when the truth starts becoming more dominant, falsehood tries to oppress it and the tactics they use is to try and make the truth look ugly.
Sadly what I have described above is something which is happening right infront of us and this is only clear to the followers of the truth. So no matter how much the truth is oppressed or made to look ugly, it will always remain to be the truth.
As brother Malcom X once said:
"Truth is on the side of the oppressed" - Malcolm X (El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz)
Regardless of our faith ,what human beings need to realise is that the truth is not of any need for people to accept it; rather it is the need of human beings to go out there and search for it.
Now if we are truly sincere, if we just open our eyes and use our common sense the truth will then become clear.
Truly THE SOURCE OF ALL TRUTH ! is where the truth can only be found ! Since the truth can only take on ONE form and that Form is 'THE ONE TRUE GOD' ! if we submit to Him (not our ownselves) then ultimately we are the followers of the truth.

A Muslim is the one who submits himself before 'THE ONE TRUE GOD' .
