Every living being in this world deserves to live. What right do we have to take the life of other living being. Let us now ponder for a while to what I have to state. Why are there many efforts in creating a world of peace and harmony, yet there still exists famine, war, plethora of sufferings and the inconvenient truths. Does sanctimonious heart and thought contribute to all these negative forces?
This might sound irrelevant to some of you guys out there but let us all take it openly to what I have to say along the way. There are three points that I'm going to touch on and please put on the thinking cap when going to the next phase of my statement.
Water molecule
A groundbreaking work has been done by a pioneer Japanese researcher whose astonishing discovery about water, changed most of what we didn't know. Dr. Masaro Emoto has documented photographically the series of five mental stimuli on water molecule. You'll be surprise to note that the same water molecule in different stimuli has a different shape and aura. Some shines and some is dull depending on the thought that one has at that moment. Dr. Emoto speaks of the thought of what being the driving force to all the molecule. The science on how thought affects the molecule is still unknown.
Bear in mind that 90% of our body constitutes of water.
If thought could do that to water molecule, imagine what they could do that to our body. And indirectly to world as a whole.
Slaughterhouses
Meat eating consumers may be subsidizing the outlandish production rates and resulting in atrocities through their demand of meat. What happens behind the screen is unknown. Think about the short animal journey from factory farms, before they are being sent to your final fate, your dinner plate. Google slaughterhouse and you'll find the answer.
If slaughterhouses had glass walls everyone would be a vegetarian (Linda McCartney).
Materialistic World
People are so into profit that they have actually forgotten their duties and responsibilities for the world. They have became too engrossed in their daily routine that they have lost the original nature. As a child we ought to respect parents and as parents they ought to execute their responsibilities as a parent. Among friends there are no trust anymore. They could go to the extend of back stabing each other for their selfishness. So many relationships have gone down the drain.
How are we suppose to reach the world of harmony when we neglect those small things? I'm pretty sure that the alarm bell started to ring in some of you all. When this happens, our original self is not truly obscure. Decisions are in your hands at the end of the day. The only advice I have is to do things which does not make our conscience cry.

Can Muslims be vegetarian
Note that the Qur'ân does not simply say to eat halal meat: it says to eat what is good and wholesome (tayyib), and what is halal. Therefore, if any food is not tayyib, the Qur'ân does not encourage us to eat it. Considering the diseases linked with meat eating (hardening of the arteries, which causes circulatory failure and stroke, in addition to other ills; gout; E. coli infection; and Mad Cow Disease), the hormones artificially put into animals, the filthy conditions of feedlots and slaughterhouses, and the danger of meat going bad, I can only conclude that meat does not pass the test of being tayyib.
I might not be the right person to comment on this and would rather want to know whether Muslims have the prerogative to do things according to their discretions and conscience.
