I must say, I got surprised by how much people don't trust one another O_O...

For everyone hear, the topic was basically saying "How much do you trust people...?" and like just me and Marwa said we do xD lol. Man that Q made me feel foolish

This was my reply:

"I used to be naive to the point where I trusted this person with pretty
much everything...I learned the hard way that you should never do that,
since the person could always change by 180 degrees,
unfortunately...but I disagree with you however, that you should JUST
trust Allah then your parents. Of course you must trust everything in
your religion then you parents! However, I think if you get to know a
person for so long (years) and they have constantly shown you that they
are trustful, I think you are safe then trusting them with anything."

Anyone agree?

Pretty much everyone said, they trust just God and their parents...

Yes I agree with you for the most part . If a person proved to me that he is trustworthy, and I know like the back of my hand that he is trustworthy, I would trust the person.

i agree with ya man...

i disagree. you should trust your friends. but know what not to tell people... most things you should share though.

Yeah, that's how I thought everyone was lol?

This world gets scarier every day in my eyes.

I mean like if we look at it from a Islamic perspective, there used to exist something known as trust between people. Ok I won't bring up the facts that even the dis-believers trusted the Prophet (SAW) with their stuff, because he is a Prophet....but the Prophet (SAW) himself trusted people like Abu Bakr, and the rest of the Sahabas (Muslims)...even the non-Muslim Ethopian King (if you know the story)...where did the element of "trust" go?

Well I know Steve, I was not saying tell them every detail in your life. I was just saying that you should be able to trust people besides your parents...

why didn't he trust everyone?

There is still trust in the world ahmed. Its stupid to say there isnt.

you just wont find it in politics...

why didn't he trust everyone?

He trusted the Muslims. And the peaceful non-Muslims. For the most part, most of the disbelievers in Makkah and Median wanted to kill him.

Of course there is, but I expected a much larger percentage of people with trust. For example look at the Q:

^^ yes there is trust left, but only very little.

Like for example, Hassan-that guy I can literally trust with my life. Hassan is a very rare type of the "good" people that anyone would want to know IMHO

I trust Ahmed a lot. I have known him for so long.

trust comes in different types too...

I trust Element too lol , even though he fools around at times LOL
=========
@Steve: Such as?

i trust ppl u guz don't know..
and quite a few ppl on this forum too

well i would trust a stranger to keep an eye on my bag but i wouldn't ask them to hold onto my wallet.

Am I one of them ? (You don't need to answer lol )

Yeah, too bad most of the good attributes of people are slowly being evaporated away and replaced with bad ones
===============
@Steve: Oh true. But the trust that I mainly talking about here is like real trust...you know what I mean ?

Also Popeye trusts people. Cool, that makes us 3.

there isn't a real trust, just different levels of trust.

*gives "Happiness" paper to ahmed*
enjoy man

Why, thank you lol

well you wouldn't give everyone the highest level of trust... why just parents, why not your whole family?

the world is a dangerous place you cant just trust everyone like that. It was the same in your prophets day.

LOL

I never said trust everyone xD . Why are you going to extremes?

The people in that Q were like: "Parents and God only"
My opinion was that you should be able to trust a few more people besides just family and God. I never said trust everyone lol.

well i was thinking of strangers and some of them are going to betray your trust just like some are going to validate it... but you cant tell them apart untill you start talking. I dont know your friends ahmed so i cant tell you who to trust... there are quite a few of them in my life though.
