Reported for personal insults. Also, I am not a polytheist. But you seem to be. Your "madhab" believes that Allah is a young boy with curly hair and no beard. SubhanAllah. You believe that Allah does not have the ability to grow a beard if he wants to. I still don't see the word "wahid"...

There isn't a comparison between the Christian concept of God and the Muslim concept. Christians believe in a single deity that can have many attributes. Muslims (falsely) believe that God is literally the number one. He cannot become 2 if he tried. He cannot be infinite. This is false, and...

False. I dislike Kamal al-Haydari because of his wahdat al-majood nonsense. That isn't what it says. Read it in Arabic. I don't see the word one (wahid) in there at all. He could be infinite and still have none like unto him. To everyone else: Please do not derail this thread. You are all...

as-salaamu `alaykum wr wb Yes, I know I'm a Muslim and yes I know the answer to this. But I'm sad to see that 99% of Muslims don't know the answer. So here's my question. Have a whack at it. Is Allah one or is he infinite? If he is one, that places a limit on his power, as in, he...

The Shahada -- the testimony. al-hadu an la illaha illa Allah la sharika la, wa al-hadu anna Muhammad rasul-Allah, wa al-hadu anna Ameer ul-Mu'mineen Ali ibn Abi Talib waliun wa hijjat Allah. I testify there there are no gods apart from Allah who is without partner, and I testify that...

The day of Ashura - 10th Muharram - it changes every year in the Gregorian calendar. The day Imam Hussain (as) and his retinue were martyred by the forces of Yazid I (may the infinite curses of god be upon him and his supporters).

Please don't give us a bad name. Please. For the love of god. Don't even.

wa alaikum as-salaamu, TG123 I could not agree more. Bahai's are the only religion that is actively persecuted in Iran and it's sad indeed. Christians, Jews, and Zoroastrians are "protected minorities" which means that their rights are guaranteed by the constitution. All other religions...

What are the Ahmadiyya?: They are a sect established by Mirza Ghulam Ahmad from the city of Qadiyan, Punjab, India. He claimed to be a "non law bearing prophet" after Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). He claimed to be the "reformer of the age", the "promised messiah" and Imam Mahdi (atfs). These...

Hello DennisTate, I hope you're well. I will have a look at that link inshaAllah (God willing). I have not heard this before and it sounds extremely sketchy, but I will go ahead and read it. There is a minority of Muslims that believe that the night journey was a dream and not an actual...

Yes, it is how we understand the night journey. Muhammad (pbuh) travelled to Jerusalem and then through the heavens. Since masjid al-Aqsa literally means "the furthest mosque" we take it to mean that it was I'm heaven as opposed to Jerusalem. This makes sense in two ways: 1) There were no...

It has no significance in Islam as a religion. The people that first came up with this symbol, though, probable used the crescent because that is how the first day of a new month is determined. By seeing the hilal (crescent).

Um, as far as I am aware the Jews won't rebuild the temple until the messiah comes. So yeah, I don't think they're going to listen to some random nut saying that it needs to happen. Not to mention all the terrorists would blow up in anger (pun intended) if "masjid al-aqsa" was demolished for...

Here is a wonderful explanation: andrew. cmu. edu/user/macisaac/Salat%20Guide. pdf (minus the spaces)

My disassociation was referring to Aisha and other historical figures. I am perfectly comfortable talking with or debating LoveBeingAMuslimah. Also, yes I am interested in Christianity. Thanks. I posted in the OO forum.

Okay. Well, in my opinion, placing it on top of the prayer rug should be perfectly fine. I can't imagine anyone having a problem with it.

I did not threaten her. We have our differences, but I did not threaten her. I don't have a clue where you got that part from.

Actually, if you would look at my posts, you will see that I am interested in Oriental Orthodox Christianity. I am here to learn about Christianity. But I am also here to discuss my current religion. I suggest you complain directly to CF admins instead of derailing every thread on Islam.

I do fear Allah (swt) and it is for that reason that I cannot defend the liar. I do not disparage the righteous companions of the Prophet (pbuh). I disparage the evil ones. I highly respect the righteous sahabah such as Salman al-Farsi, Belial, Amaan Yassir, and others. I bet you could...

Nikah mutah is not prostitution. The dowry for a nikah mutah is usually very very small, and symbolic. What prostitute do you know of would sleep with a man and then observe a 3 month waiting period before moving on to another for only a small pittance. It's usually not even money, but a...
