SHAME

We have no right to exceed the boundaries as we have with Bro. Michael Jackson. What he wanted the public to know the public was told and given. This man gave the best of himself and yet we still want more. We want to pry into his private life, examine his psyche, and criticize his life decisions. Further still, there are some of us who want so desperately in his absence to have some kind of exclusive connection to him. It is rumored that he accepted Islam. Perhaps. It does not accentuate or lessen (for those that already had an appreciation for his talents) what he has given to the world.
This stands true for all great men. When a contribution is made by one by the permission of Allah, the contribution itself stands alone. While it is true to examine the circumstances around the person when various events occur is to gain a more in depth understanding, it exceeds the limits to examine matters of no concern to the brilliance that was generated.
King James Version--32:1 Psalm Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered." To consciously, deliberately unearth what Allah hides or prevents from being revealed is driven by a motive, usually a negative one.
May Allah bless us to desire what He desires and to stop at the boundaries that He creates by not exceeding the limit; whether it be our own affairs or the affairs of others.
