A Man And Pair of ‘Timberland’

Upon the issue of boycotting Israelis products, one man would like to ask for your sincere opinion. He had bought a pair of boots in 2008 without knowing the fact that the major manufacturer was one of the Zionist greater funders.


As the matter aroused, he could not simply ignore the fact, and kept on thinking what he should do to the pair of boots. Wearing the boots is like indirectly promoting the product….. Placing the boots on the shelf will lead to the minor waste…. Walk with the boots can be considered as putting the bullets on the head of Palestinians….


Shall he proceed with aggressive actions such demolished and giving the total destruction towards the boots? This is a tremendously huge dilemma….though it might sound simple. The man is not over exaggerating the matter…but he was afraid that by making a wrong decision, it can lead to such demonolatry action.


Please give your opinion regarding to the situation. Thank you

  1. SALAM,

    -praise goes to achmed for loving his brothers to d extend of having those thoughts on just a pair of timberland.

    -personally, if it happend to me, i wud still wear my timberland simply because i had bought it, meaning money had been transefd to d US/Israel. nothing i cn do bout it cn i? but on d othr hand, achmed claimd it brought a lump of guilt having it with him so i suggest give it 2 d needy. y wud u wanna throw or destroy it?? i do not blive islam teaches us to be soo rigid to tht level. please refer Q22:78

    -nway, u can refer the attitude plus mentality towards d boicott at www.saifulislam.com [read article- KECELARUAN PRASANGKA YG TIDAK KENA MASA & DADAH YANG SATU INI. ohhh if ur fren achmed did nt understand malay, i blive u cn translate it 4 him!

  2. ohh btw, d footnote in my noble Quran has hadith tht came along with d verse above~

    narrated Abu Hurairah r.a:the prophet s.a.w said,"religion is VERY EASY and whoever OVERBURDENS himself in his religion, will NOT BE ABLE TO CONTINUE IN THT WAY. so you should NOT BE EXTREMIST, but try to be near to PERFECTION and receive the good tidings tht u will b rewarded; and gain strength by offering the SALAT in the morning, afternoons and during the last hours of the nights. [sahih al bukahri,1/39(o.p38)]

  3. Tapi rasanya kalau dia terus pakai kasut tuh kira dia dah promote brand "timberland". dgn buat mcm tuh org len pun akan beli kasut tuh..kalau bg kat org lain...org lain pulak pakai n promote kasut tuh..secara x langsung akan org lain akan beli jugak....haa..mcm mana tuh?

  4. itu kan secara tidak langsung,bukan niat beliau untuk promote kasut tersebut.

    bagi saya,kita guna reverse psychology. bila org tny pasal kasut tu,jawab la:
    "kasut tu lah yang sponsor yahudi. saya tak sengaja terbeli,oleh itu anda janganlah beli. nak buang rugi."

    cuba fikir,dengan ini anda secara directly dah tolong untuk memppromosi boikot terhadap penaja yahudi.
