Shove your put-upon airs of moral superiority where they belong. Adhering to any individual aspect of hadith might make you a better muslim but it doesn't automatically make you a better human being. You're using your religion to alienate yourself from people, you're weaponizing it. If you can't come up with an argument that isn't divine fiat, shove it. Just shove it.

These people claim to be morally better? Come on

You are saying that the people who are relieved they are not going to be abused and subjected to degradation and dehumanization by this man any longer are morally equivalent to this foul, evil man, simply because they dare utter their relief. And you're not just gossipping among your muslim friends, you're actually saying it to their face, like you have some kind of fucking personal moral authority on the subject that a stranger on the Internet is going to possibly respect.

Fuck you. I don't need to be told by a divine being that you're not being a good person. Your posturing and true motivations are obvious. There are moral cowards who hide behind every religion. I think you have more in common with Robertson than we do. "One should not speak useless words."

"automatically make you a better human being" according to you.

Clearly, the way you type and lack of decorum, reason, patience or moral character make your judgements unreliable. In fact, someone who behaves so despicably like yourself, that hates me is a compliment. If you have such reprehensible attributes that means I have the opposite, Hamdou'Allah

Checkmate.

My, you sure showed me. By totally ignoring the content of my criticisms, you have completely disproved them! Amazing. Truly I have been "checkmated" by an intellectual giant.

The only thing your comment served was your own emotional needs. It did not communicate a single useful thought. You could have said, "I know you are but what am I," and it would have had the same meaning and gravitas.
