| Message | Having a large salary has nothing to do with over spending. These officials have a social obligation to the people of Badara, these pople leave their homes and families to carry out said duties. With their high salaries, they also tend to spend more for Zakat. Our officials aren't heathens...they are Ahmadi. |

| Message | أرسل كسرى رسولا الى زيارة عاصمة الإسلام وملكهم عمر بن الخطاب حيث كان يظن أنها مملكة .. وأمره أن ينظروا كيف يعيش وكيف يتعامل مع شعبه فلما وصل رسولكسرى إلى المدينة المنورة عاصمة الإسلام لمقابلة أمير المؤمنين سيدنا عمر بن الخطابرضي الله عنه وسأل أين قصر أمير المؤمنين؟ ضحك الصحابة من سؤاله هذا و أخدوه إلى بيت من طين وعليه شعر ماعز وضعه عمر لكي لا يسقط المطر فينهدم البيت على رأسه وأولاده نظر الرسل بعضهم الى بعض ظانين منهم أن هذا البيت ربما كان المنتجع الصيفي أو مكانا ليقضي فيه بعض الوقت هو وأهله فقالوا: نريد قصر الإمارة! فأكدوا لهم أن هذا هو .. فطرقوا الباب ففتح لهم عبد الله بن عمر بن الخطاب فسألوه عن أبيه..فقال ربما كان في نخل المدينة. ثم دلوه على رجل نائم تحت ظل شجرة ، وفي ثوبه عدد من الرقع ، وبدون أي حراسة ! سبحان الله ! رئيس دولة عظمى يحكم نصف الكرة الأرضية في ذلك الزمان ، ينام على الأرض يغط في نوم عميق يده اليسرى تحت رأسه وسادة ويده اليمنى على عينه تحميه من حرارة الشمس فتعجب من هذاالمنظر ولم تصدق ما رأته عيناه وتذكر كسرى وقصوره وحرسه وخدمه |

| Message | Increasing their salaries makes candidates go for the money and not the duty |
| Date | 19:00:45, December 25, 2018 CET | From | Hizbu-Akim | To | Debating the Shura Salaries |
| Message | Decreasing salaries would bring incompetence in government. These legislatures have the education and the piety to represent our people. Their salaries are justified. |
| Date | 20:38:50, December 25, 2018 CET | From | ☪ (الاخوان المسلمين) MB | To | Debating the Shura Salaries |
| Message | We are not cutting off their living, we are simply preventing them from receiving 3-5x the normal citizen's salary. If high salaries were needed to have a "competence" government, then Omar (RAA) would have lived in a luxurious palace and would have not banned his household form consuming meat during the famine that struck the Ummah. Besides, having a humble life prevents the lawmakers from feeling that they are superior to ordinary citizens. |
