    Misconceptions about Islam

    Found it atlast. Its from Tirmidhi Muhammad was heard say: "The smallest reward for the people of Heaven is an abode where there are eighty thousand servants and seventy two wives, over which stands a dome decorated with pearls, aquamarine and ruby, as wide as the distance from Damascus to...

    Misconceptions about Islam

    72 is from a Hadith, not from Quran. The word Hoor means, white, fair, pure, the whiteness of the eye etc. It has come to mean a fair & pure lady with beautiful eyes. The word has also been used in plural form (Hawwariun) in Quran for Jesus' friends (because they washed/purified clothes). The...

    Misconceptions about Islam

    the thing is that those 72 virgins (the arabic word doesnt exactly mean virgin, but thats the translation that got famous) are for every believer. You dont need to kill anybody for that.

    Christian propaganda calling Allah Moon God a lie.

    Yup.....God of Quran is Moon God, God of OT is Thunder God, while Jesus is a syncretic "Dionysus + Horus + Mithras" God........lets debunk all Abrahamics......shall we? Real God is Shangdi, the eternal. :D

    My God hypothesis of God based on Hawking's work.

    Christian and roman Gods are very much anthropomorphic, but other "models/concepts" of God arnt. For example, Brahman (not Brahma who is the creative aspect of Brahman) is considered to be a feature less being from which all come out. Allah (and YHWH too) are considered to be inconcievable &...

    Anti Islam rant goes wrong

    So how much support is there in US for violent mass murder and loot (provided that they actually know in how many countries its actually happening under the euphemisms like democracy, freedoms, interests & ofcourse the sick joke, peace).

    Major world religions are fundamentally the same- and true!

    It depends upon what they do other than dancing. Most of the actual sufi work remains hidden from public. Any dances or ceremonies are mainly to have a cultural effect. So if they are just dancing, they are just dancing. If they actually work to organize the lower you so that you might evolve...

    islam, abraham?

    As for anyone who denies God after having once attained to faith - and this, to be sure, does not apply to one who does it under duress, the while his heart remains true to his faith, but [only, to] him who willingly opens up his heart to a denial of the truth -: upon all such [falls] God's...

    islam, abraham?

    God made a covenant with Abraham. Then from his Israelite lineage, he made a covenant with Moses. And then from his Ishmaelite lineage, he made a covenant with Mohammad. Thats how Judaism & Islam are Abrahamic. And Christianity is the odd man out. ------- I cant discuss much about Sharia...

    Exclusive areas for islam in the UK?

    Even if you had a say in NATO, you would do the same thing that they are doing now. Why didnt any easterner migrate to europe before the colonisation. Why now.........You cant leave the east, you cant survive without subjugating them. Which causes everything you'r whining about. Stop bugging...

    Exclusive areas for islam in the UK?

    simple, practice what you preach. When your kids can be in their country, pointing loaded guns at and shooting whosoever they want to, why are you whining about their kids burning your flag in your country? Is what they are doing worse than what you are doing? You live in a democratic country...

    Is Islam in accordance with rationality and science?

    I guess the word God meant differently back then. IN Islamic vocablary, God is the ultimate existence. But in many cultures, there is an ultimate existence, & then a creator deity lies below it, like Brahma lies below Brahmaan. Since both Vedic & Greek cultures originated from the same IE roots...

    Questions

    Salam, I've been reading Buddhism off & on for some time. So, had a few questions in my mind. 1) If atman isnt permanent, what is? 2) What is the final end of human being? And the final end of all of creation? 3) Whats the Buddhist view of God? AS far as I remember, Buddha didnt answer this...

    Existentialism continued

    Thats the opinion of Ghazali the philosopher, not Ghazali the sufi. His thesis in Mishkaat-al-anwar is very much similar to yours. God is the light of lights, the real existence, while the rest is a reflection, an apparent/conceptual existence. Being is a divine attribute, creation get it on...

    War ethics in Islam

    Contentment is a word thats difficult for me to digest, better substitute would be "living with it","trying to make the best of it" (Pakistanis are doing the same thing). Just because things are bad in India doesnt mean everybody would want to migrate to Pakistan. The basic ideology of Pakistan...
