    Spiritual Side to Islam ?

    I agree my friend. Islam has surely guided me, and what little spirituality I do have today is due to it. But, I'm only reading the Quran, I haven't finished it yet though. What I'm against is all these various Haddhits. I also don't have the same take as so many in terms of intolerance and what...

    Spiritual Side to Islam ?

    I do agree with you that Humanity is the biggest religion, but I'm approaching this from a clearly Islamic and Abrahamic point of view. I think it is important to learn each religious perspective and that is why have been studying Islam for a while. Its a great religion for self discipline if...

    Spiritual Side to Islam ?

    Precisely. And whoever you talk to will have their own preferences for you to turn to. I think Islam should equal the Quran, but it doesn't. It's FAR more political than that, and I honestly cannot trust another human being to pass forward the message, because those messages can never be...

    Spiritual Side to Islam ?

    Abdullah, That is precisely what I'm talking about. You provided me with quotes and perceptions of various scholars; whereelse, the Quran is suppose to be the one book and Muhammad's (pbuh) message the last revelation. How is it possible for the message to be so imperfect that to understand it...

    Where are my posts?

    I believe I have posted some posts in a thread which simply are not showing up. I have repeated it once or twice and eventually noticed it says that my post will have to be approved by a moderator. Its been 2-3 days now, and still my posts are not there. Just wondering, why is this? I could post...

    Spiritual Side to Islam ?

    I do understand what you're trying to say, and I understand most of your points. But, when it comes to morality, I'm not too sure. I think one of the basic ideas which human beings have got of morality is through religion itself. I think these social constructs may be part of the universal...

    Spiritual Side to Islam ?

    Yep, I guess thats why I joined this forum. Just to get a feel of the general views among the people here. Some interesting ideas already, the "Interfaith as a Faith" thread is quite an interesting read. :)

    Spiritual Side to Islam ?

    Very true. And it is very hard instilling that faith in oneself. Everytime I have tried to do it, I have always asked why am I forcing myself to believe something which may not even exist? It is a very hard thing to do, and having a zillion religions and theories to choose from doesn't make it...

    Spiritual Side to Islam ?

    Alright, You raise some good points. But. I don't think I can achieve spirituality within my own religion for, exactly the point you mentioned. The society I grew up in. Everyone around me as a child, were religious.. but not really. They would go to the Gurudwara (I'm a Sikh), just for the sake...

    Spiritual Side to Islam ?

    Are you for real? LOL. Man, I'm thinking the exact same thing about my religion aswell, and I thought of studying Islam because I thought it would be more spiritual. If you're in the same exact position as me, but as a Muslim; I guess, it is a common problem either with religion itself, or with...

    A Baha'i who wants to learn about Sikhism

    Hey. Tell me if you're still interested to learn about it. I'm a Sikh, and I would love to tell you, and at the same time, would like to learn about your religion. Thanks.
