    Pagan origins of Islam

    Assalamualaikum (peace be upon you). Lots of similarities between Islam and other religions. In fact, Quran fully supports this view when it is the only book that connects all religions via their fasts "... decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you ..." [2:184]. i.e...

    Which religion is true for everyone?

    There is nothing wrong with insisting your religion is true if there are glaring contradictions between the religions. For example, Atheism and Theism have an irreconcilable difference on the existence of God. So both are wrong or one is right. Both can't be right. Same is the case with Judaism...

    Is Islam Responsible for the Charlie Hebdo Murders?

    "Quran is me systematic and violent"??? It is true that Muslim extremists do a huge disservice to Islam by their condemnable actions. It is also true that they seem not to have read the Qur'an in honesty. And so ... it is true for Islamophobes. Did neither read that according to the Qur'an...

    Abrogation in the Quran

    He could yes. But what He plans to do, what He would do, is highlighted in [15:10] in His own words. [Qur'an 15:10] "Verily, We Ourself have sent down this Exhortation, and most surely We will be its Guardian."

    Abrogation in the Quran

    Concept of abrogation of Quranic verses is false. Here is the verse that is used to support the abrogation argument: [Qur'an 2:107] "Whatever Sign We abrogate or cause to be forgotten, We bring one better than that or the like thereof. Dost thou not know that Allah has the power to do all...

    Was Mohammed a man of peace ? - as his last words were to curse the Christians and the Jews

    Which history says Islam was spread by the sword? Can you name me which sword spread Islam in Indonesia? One should ask Allah to protect but one must also use what God has given them to protect. It is ungrateful to just pray to God without doing actions. In the case of the Holy Prophet (peace...

    Islam, the Qur'an and Evolution

    Is it not enough evidence that the third attribute of God in the Quran is Rab? Especially for those who are attuned with Arabic should not term evolution as a non-Islamic concept when "Rab" is used to introduce us to God. Anyone who is curious should check Lane and Aqrab for the definitions of...

    Is terrorism a Muslim monopoly and Islamic teaching? Not all Muslims are terrorist but...

    Assalamulaikum. The verse under question refers to a situation where Muslims are the established rulers over a certain land. In such a case non-believers in Islam are expected to pay a tax (like any other government) and not rebel against the rulers (also like any other government). If...

    The Nature of Islam

    Assalamualaikum. It is often in life that people try to state matters of a complex nature with simplicity. This is particularly difficult for some and it is easy to oversimplify and thus fail to pass on the true message of religion. As a peaceful religion Islam requires that human beings...

    The Debate of God.

    Assalamualaikum. Let it be understood that the evidence for the existence of God are not as strong as that of the existence of the sun on a sunny day. Rather the evidence for the existence of God are like the existence of the sun on a cloudy day. It is clear but not clear enough and there is...
