sometimes saints get words through inspiration; these might be God speaking for example a sufi deeply engaged in meditation and the rememberance of Allah may suddenly hear the words, 'I am God' etc, and there have been other sentences/messages given in the same way [thruogh inspiration], but...

i think with catostrophies like this, it's best to put things into perspective befroe we all get too emotional; what will be the point of saying 'lets not forget!!!'; what muslim country is there to do justice on the scerbenica muslims behalf?; absolutely none! so the only purpose a 'lets not...

wassalaam Sis :) mashaallah here is an article that explains this grammatical and natural difference that you might find interesting ;): Why does the Quran refer to Allah using the masculine pronoun?

Hi persona yes that is good, but only in a sense when considering the good and bad, the general influences and dangers should be taken into consideration and the overall harm weighed against the good in the case of images of living creatures [except inanimate things] it gave birth to the...

it seems that the meaning of 'contingent' completely went over your head :confused:

since this issue can mean the difference between idolatry and monothiesm, let me just clarify further as to exactly how Allah is 'personal': Allah's attributes are nothing at all remotely like that of humans or any of the creation; they are transcendental to the extent that whatever may come...

koranist, or rather should that be westernist? :D you never looked properly enough to see what the Quran says about the Prophet [saw's] role; you missed the following: Allâh has surely blessed the believers with His favor when He raised in their midst a Messenger from among themselves, who...

Sis, you've got the greatest source of knowledge at your finger tips; the internet, so why do you need a mosque to get hadiths verified? :)

Stoning for adultery is mass-transmitted from the Prophet, upon him peace, both as verbal injunction (Hadith "The child belongs to the household where he is born and the adulterer gets stones") and actual deed (stoning of Maa`iz ibn Maalik, Allah be well-pleased with him) cf. al-Kattani, Nazm...

MashAllah; if the Quran does the job; thats what it's for! ;) how do you know that the Quran is not distorted Sis? :rolleyes:; because a verse in it says that it is divinely protected/; well how do you know that that verse itself is not distorted; yes there are lots of evidence thats...
