Agree, She is an inspiration, and her story is both tragic and amazing. She remains faithful and displays herself as a servant of Allah, and pushing for the things that are the most important.

I apologize, I never saw your post, I will look into your question, and try to give an educated response as I'm not familiar with Indonesian political issues, only US and Europe usually get attention here. But hopefully I will get some time soon, and again I apologize for the delay, I just...

Assalaam Allahikum, Well you are certainly able to try to understand it without the help of scholars, or Hadith. The topics you listed tend to be favorites of the Quran only groups, but Even though I once had a strong leaning that way (and don't get me wrong, Quran before Hadith is definitely...

yeah it's amazing how upside down this country is getting. Between the ban and the discussion of a registry still up in the air, it's beginning to feel less and less safe here. I have friends that say if there is a registry they will sign up, to which my only advice is DON'T. I appreciate the...

Salaam Allahikum, How does one abandon the Quran by following Hadith? Hadith is the sayings and actions that people recorded the Prophet (PBUH) saying and doing. So do you believe Mouhammed's talks and actions weren't in line with Quran? for Further response, I think the discussion on...

Wow, I gotta say, Even not as a Christian, I think you could have went about these things without so much challenge. Your Agenda seems to be to prove Christianity wrong or to chastise the Christians' beliefs and practice, not seeking information. I will agree that many of these questions (in...

I think you misunderstood, probably due to my poor wording. The prosperity comes from many sources, not Religion. The Religion is what normally spreads that wealth so that the lowest groups tend to be much higher than those of lower class in non-Islamic ones. This is purely based on individual...

Really wil? you are going to take all the (false) stereotypes of Islam and use them as examples of how religion affects people, children in particular? Well lets add a few of those "terrible" tenants and their effect on society. In most Muslim Countries, crimes such as drug use, theft, and...

it happens nearly every time I talk to my atheist friends. The debate seem so clear to both sides as well. Atheists tend to despise the "do good or your afterlife will be marred with torture" idea. I'm going to assume it stems from a lack of belief that they "can" go the other way. The shear...

High and Low has been long symbol of power, status, and Hierarchy. Birds, Monkeys, Lions, and other social Animals use this symbol of power or responsibility. The ones above are of Higher importance, The ones below are of less. This symbolism has of course been used in human ego throughout...

Obviously it is your prerogative to believe or disbelieve in whatever you want. That being said do you reject all miracles, or just the ones that seem outlandish? I'm honestly asking as I'm too lazy to go about looking at all the posts that popped up while I was away to try to find the answer...

1) Short earth... yeah I find it hard to believe anyone believes this nowadays, but it's their issue, not mine. 2) A man made of Mud? did you read my explanation? Do you disagree that that scenario fits with every scientific model of evolution being presented? I simply said I don't believe LIFE...

Biblical Literalists? Quranic Literalists? Vedic Literalists? All Literalists? I don't see your argument working outside of Christianity... not sure why you would choose to use such a broad meaning word when your knowledge is so limited in others' text. (To be fair I am assuming you aren't well...

who is "They"? There's plenty of the origin of man, and admittedly it is similar to the Biblical story. But with a few "corrections" (keep this in context of Islamic teachings, not wanting to get into the same old I'm right you are wrong debate) The Islamic version removes the points of time...

As someone who doesn't follow the Bible, I can confidently say that the Bible never claims itself of this. (The closest thing being that the law will not change.) But I do see the multitudes of people who follow this sentiment. Now, I follow the Quran, which does make that claim (of truth...

Quick question... where did you get that Wahhabis (or Salafis) believe these things you claim. I should warn you from one Muslim to another, be wary of making claims of others who claim the same religion as you. you will be asked to stand and defend yourself on the day of judgement. I must also...

just wondering how you apply this Aya. It is generally accepted amongst Muslims that at least some Hadith are both completely reliable and authoritative. I understand your argument, and for a while, I thought the same way. The Quran is THE DOCUMENT. But in Ayat such as the one above it seems...

oh well... seems several instances of such characters surfacing

admittedly most of the people I know are Baptist and Methodist and such, but let me clarify. The Christians I've talked to don't view Jesus as a separate entity. His "flesh" and his "divinity" are all equal and same.

from an Islamic perspective, it seems troublesome. From a Christian perspective however, They see it as 1 entity, therefore no separation and without separation there is no polytheism. Most sects of Christianity don't even see Jesus as a Man, but rather God's manifestation, inseparable yet non...
