    Spiritual Side to Islam ?

    Hello, l'm back just for this. I consider the topic to have maxed out because l asked for, and found, no meaningful evidence of symbols in Islam, as l was quite certain all along, as it is my religion. I'll put my response in a bullet list: 1. I probably don't need to state this as it's not...

    Question regarding Jinn and "evil spirits"

    I'm on sabbatical now, to get some real work done. Bye for now, everybody! May return in a few days give or take a few. Insha Allah.

    Question regarding Jinn and "evil spirits"

    Jinn = "Smokeless fire" Sorry for being picky with my translators, sadly not all of them picked up on smokeless fire: Quran 15:27: Yusuf Ali: "And the Jinn race, We had created before, from the fire of a scorching wind." Mohsin Khan: "And the jinn, We created aforetime from the smokeless flame...

    Question regarding Jinn and "evil spirits"

    Going back to the original topic: Jinn that became believers are meek and keep away from us. It's the evil Jinn, whom we call Shayatin (satans, plural), that get unchaste and reveal themselves to us and meddle with us. Again, it's about meekness versus all the vices. We all got an inner...

    Question regarding Jinn and "evil spirits"

    Thanks. I think we are each doomed to failure in this life because success would mean we would only be pleased at attaining infinity, anything short of that would be disappointment. Satan had success after success and it ended in envy, greed and hatred of the infinite God. So that's envy...

    Question regarding Jinn and "evil spirits"

    How to be sure? As l see it, we are destined to fail but how we do it is what matters. In other words: self critique - did you do your best? Also, look at people labouring away in slums or , i don't know, a dead battered baby that turns up in a bin. Those poor souls just do what they do in the...

    The Trees

    I guess the heart is the niche. When i stare at myself in the mirror l eventually see a blue spark come out of both eyes.

    Question regarding Jinn and "evil spirits"

    I like to think there's an inner dimension and an outer. It's not just messing with our minds, i like to think there's a cosmic game being played too, like, in the physical universe.

    Question regarding Jinn and "evil spirits"

    In the context of 17:62 "He said: Seest Thou this (creature) whom Thou hast honoured above me, if Thou give me grace until the Day of Resurrection I verily will seize his seed, save but a few." That does indicate that Satan knows he's doomed. Therefore i may be wrong that he really thinks he...

    Question regarding Jinn and "evil spirits"

    Thank you. I would differ though because Satan - as a prop - is being used to test us thoroughly. There's no hiding place. 017.062 ... give me grace until the Day of Resurrection I verily will seize his seed, save but a few. He can get you through love: I've seen proponents of Buddhism (not...

    Question regarding Jinn and "evil spirits"

    I don't know what you mean by bigger Satan, but: 003.054 And they (the disbelievers) schemed, and Allah schemed (against them): and Allah is the best of schemers.

    Spiritual Side to Islam ?

    Can i ask why you think it's not literal? Southern USA and other parts of the world are getting overrun by pigs. It's a huge problem. They destroy crops and physical structures. Bear in mind that Jesus will pray to God and so rid us of Gog and Magog who similarly will swarm the world and...

    The Trees

    I believe it may be so. The Logos. Alternatively I sometimes wonder if it is The Prophet's soul. The way it is described is very lovingly, and l believe the Prophet's soul would therefore fit the description. However my logical side thinks it's the Holy Ghost (the Logos) @Cino l really liked...

    Question regarding Jinn and "evil spirits"

    Right. I sometimes think Satan is insane. Evenso that doesn't preclude that he really does have power and he really does have a plan. There may be method to the supposed madness. Back to your point though: you're using circular logic: God said so, therefore it is. This is absolutely true but...

    Spiritual Side to Islam ?

    I like the crescent and star symbol or the halal symbol (actually just the word halal in arabic, so not really a symbol) as it shows me that the food might be for me. However, it is just for convenience. We don't flee it, we know it's not part of the religion, or some of us think it is, hence...

    The Trees

    Thank you that was good. To me, the glass is like a diffraction device, which slows the light down, from infinite frequency (God's soul itself?) to finite frequencies (eventually visible light). The niche = the entry point into the universe of that light, a space cleared out. Maybe a conduit...

    Koran 5:32

    You're right. Thank you for the reminder! :) I've just added a bit extra to my previous post by the way: to say it even felt jarring to me when i first read it.

    Koran 5:32

    Sure, l missed the full message of the OP, which means opening / original post. However it is still feels like harmful agitprop seeing as it's dished out without an actual refutation. OK this is embarrassing: there was a mini refutation under the actual video window but still, it's hateful...
