Don't convert people to any religion. Obey the Humanity Code

There is no need to try to convert somebody into Islam (or any religion for that matter).
People are best they way they are, that's their path. You might want to help them with home work, and help them understand the world better, or if they're going to spend time with you, you might want to guide them what you are, and how you want to be treated. Ofcourse, they'll want the treatment back.
I recently saw a question about, how to convert "my dearest" to Islam?
There is no need at all to convert anybody.
Let's not forget that even the Prophet of Islam was said to be "only the one who reminds". So if he is "only" that, and we too become those who remind, so what does that make him? A Book bringer? No, he is the one who reminds. All other people, including us, are here to obey the humanity-code, which aren't even the 10 ancient commands. It's a couple of those: Don't hurt anybody (killing is hurting too, and it does a lot of hurting to the family of the dead, and stealing from somebody hurts them), don't cheat anybody (that means don't cheat spouse, neighbour, customer, teacher, boss - because you're hurting them). Hurting is also done by getting a job with bribery, or doing things with bribery. Somebody else who "deserves" it more might have needed that job more than you, who cheated.

I can't think of more. Hurting and cheating, in most of their forms.
Sometimes, it is inevitable to hurt somebody some way. If we don't help somebody, and if we could, we are hurting them. Sometimes, we can do something without even knowing that other people would be hurt from that deed.

So bringing people to Islam brings nothing to nobody. Your dearest ones will be with you in your life the way they are now.
If you change them, they won’t be those whom you love, but some changed people. If you try to change them, you won’t be what you are to them. You’re going to be somebody else to them.
Don’t lose your relationship with those whom you love. You already love them, so that’s Islam for all of you.
If you - as a Muslim - love them, that means they are good people. But if they’re some sort of criminals and bad people, like killers and so on, but you love them, then change yourself.
Them being Muslims will bring absolutely nothing to any of you. Only a chance that some of them might run into a scripture that tells them how music is wrong. And they’ll turn to be boring.

Also, you could be hurting them if you act in order to convert them. They'll know that you feel how those whom you love are not perfect enough for you.

Sexual crimes in Islam - no it's not rape, it's being raped (mostly)

The new recruit initially needed some coaxing to punish an unmarried woman caught in a hotel room with a man. The article points out this morality crime in the region called Aceh, in Indonesia, the world's largest Muslim-majority country. The alleged criminals get a public whipping.  The new recruit didn't have the stomach to do it right away, but she pulled her self together and flogged the alleged criminal. This shows that the Muslim religious source produces sharia law, making human suffering because of it. The modern Muslims will tell you it takes four witnesses to accuse of adultery. That is why Sharia police patrols in four. The scholars must teach the floggers how to do it properly - according to them. It is unclear to me if there is a proper way of flogging described in the Hadith or the Qur'an. Please let me know what is the proper way of flogging in your country! They also say it is not aimed to hurt people, but to shame them so they don't do...

Revision of a post

Hello folks, I’ve decided to try this out again, to reactivate my blogging, but I also wanted to test the themes for the blog. This one seems O.K., it looks “professional. Anyway, if you ever get to read anything from me, and do notice changes in layout, that’s because I’m gonna test which one I like. By the way, you can suggest something, so please be welcomed. I guess there is a comment section for your suggestions.
