    Modernist/Reformist Jews/Christians, Muslims

    Hi all, I don't know how exactly to describe myself, but I'm a "reformist" or "Qur'an only" Muslim. I reject most traditional understandings and misinterpretations (whether due to ignorance or deliberate) that often contradict the Qur'an. But my interpretation of the Qur'an itself is also...

    The bullying of Quran alone believers

    I think this is the reason that they keep silent. Because they are harshly attacked and insulted by other Muslims. I'm skeptical about hadith myself, although I don't necessarily believe that all hadith should be thrown away.

    Not marrying, is it a big sin?

    Am I condemned to hellfire, if I never marry (which is probably going to be the case)? Even if I pray and give charity and do other good deeds, and stay away from haram things during my entire life?

    Fajr and work - how to get up?

    How can you get up at 5 am for Fajr if you work full-time. Should we sleep early? I don't work at the moment, but I have a sleeping disorder and once I get up, I could never sleep again. Does this mean that I have to sleep early, like 9 pm each day to be able to get up for Fajr?

    Growing a beard in Islam

    Is growing a beard part of sunnah? I know a Turkish scholar for example who says it isn't. He says growing a beard is not binding, that it wasn't something our prophet (PBUH) wanted us to follow. He also says that there are other things our prophet (PBUH) did, which are not part of sunnah.

    Considering suicide but I'm religious

    Hi, I'm a Muslim and considering suicide. I feel so bad that I have no choice. I have lived in complete social isolation in the past 7 years. I'm 32 and still live with my parents. Since the beginning of 2004 I have practically spent all my time behind my pc without speaking to anyone. I was...

    Question to Quran only believers

    I have a lot of questions, but I will ask one to keep it simple. Do you not take into account the way our prophet (PBUH) performed salat, for example? Is the information in the Quran enough according to you? Thanks in advance. I hope I'm allowed to ask questions, I'm new here.

    Is Jesus divine - a son of God?

    Hi all, I have just registered. I'm a Muslim and would like to learn more about Christianity. Is Jesus the son of God in a physical sense? Is he divine, is he "God" according to Christians? And are there any Christians who do not believe Jesus is divine? Thanks in advance.
