“Ustaad ji there are good people and there are bad people. For whatever it’s worth, coming from a nobody like me, you are a legend and always will be. And every good person is a good person. Period. Doesn’t matter he ls lucky Ali or lucky Sharma,” one of them wrote.

Another penned, “Does that even matter? And if your friends are leaving you, they were never your friends. You should be thankful that because of your religious belief you’re able to understand the psyche of people around you, otherwise all throughout life you’d have been in dilemma.”
“It’s good to be alone then being in wrong company. When we are surrounded with materialistic people it’s difficult to find peace and spirituality. Sumnah of prophet is against capitalism so they malign image of muslims. Change your company be with those who are not materialistic,” one more suggested.
