    Islam Question about murder in Islam

    Alaikum salaam Anatolian. Thanks for your response, and I hope you weren't offended by my words, just trying to get to the truth. I read the final sermon, it is a nice one and tells Muslims to treat other Muslims justly. I missed the part about non-Muslims being safe even if they pay jizyah...

    Islam Question about murder in Islam

    Another saying by Muhammad, which outlines when it is OK to kill a Muslim. I don't see killing disbelievers as being one of them. It was narrated from 'Aishah, the Mother of the Believers, that the Messenger of Allah said: "It is not permissible to kill a Muslim except in one of three cases: A...

    Islam Question about murder in Islam

    Salaam alaikum Anatolian and Niblo, sorry for not earlier responding. Anatolian, the hadiths, both about the death penalty not being imposed against a Muslim who kills a non-Muslim, and the blood money for a non-Muslim being half that of a Muslim, are graded Sahih and Hasan, respectively. They...

    Islam Question about murder in Islam

    Salaam alaikum Niblo and thank you brother for the response. I know that some Muslim scholars say that the hadith I was going to make reference to (you read my mind lol) was only about hostile non-Muslim enemies. Did you know though that this is a minority view? Muhammad did not specify this...

    Islam Question about murder in Islam

    Salaam alaikum. Can you please tell me what is the penalty in Islam if: 1) A Muslim kills another Muslim? 2) A non-Muslim kills a Muslim? 3) A Muslim kills a non-Muslim? Many thanks and God bless.

    Islam Question about 99:7

    Salaam alaikum to my Muslim friends here. It's been a week since I returned from Palestine and Israel and it is good to be here again. If you (or anyone else reading) is interested in seeing the work I was doing in the West Bank, please feel free to see the following...

    Question about 16:15

    Salaam alaikum brother, nice to be back again. Same to you. Mish mushkil :) If this is the case then that verse is in error since mountains are not pushed out from the earth. They are not under the crust or in the crust, they are part of the crust itself. When the tectonic plates come...

    Attack on Al Fawwar refugee camp

    Three days ago, we were called down in the morning to Al Fawwar refugee camp, and spent 8 hours there witnessing a massive military invasion of the place. Soldiers going from door to door (with a dog in some cases), entering homes and destroying things, using people's homes as military vantage...

    salaam and shalom from the Holy Land!

    If there wasnt the constant humiliations, abuses, land theft there would be no attacks.

    salaam and shalom from the Holy Land!

    Agreed LoAmmi. As you know, I am opposed to the knife attacks on Israelis as well as attacks against Palestinians, and have always spoken out against violence especially when it targets civilians, and always will continue to. I believe that the recent Palestinian violence against Israelis is...

    Islam Ramadan Debate

    Muhammad approved killing in self-defence, and the people he ordered to attack were trying to kill him. Unlike the Old Testament prophets, he didn't commit genocide. What kind of a man orders his soldiers to murder women and children?

    Islam Ramadan Debate

    Show me where Muhammad taught Muslims to be jerks to others during Ramadan. Great way to remember the resurrection of Jesus... murder Jews you see walking down the street, and if there aren't any, break into their homes and kill them! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kishinev_pogrom "And Moses...

    Ramadan Mubarak

    You too, LoveBeingAMuslimah! Hope you are well my sister in humanity! Simplegifts, what does the despicable behaviour of some idiots have to do with a religious fast? I mean, do you say that one way to celebrate Good Friday is to go find and beat up (or worse) a bunch of Jews, since...

    Question about 16:15

    Salaam alaikum brother, and thank you for your response. I definitely agree it is very rich, am not sure if it's "the mother of all languages". Great, let's look at the the ones you provided. Does Alqaa in this sentence mean "gave"? Thanks for sharing these two. We know that mountains are...

    Question about 16:15

    Peace be upon you also brother. OK sorry for being slow, but I still don't see what you mean. Can you please write a sentence that uses the word "drop" and another sentence that uses the word "scatter" that would be used in the same way as "alqaa" is used in the verse? Sorry if I am being...
