YUSUFALI: To Allah belong the east and the West: Whithersoever ye turn, there is the presence of Allah. For Allah is all-Pervading, all-Knowing.
PICKTHAL: Unto Allah belong the East and the West, and whithersoever ye turn, there is Allah's...
erelsgl, It should be understood that Muhammad abrogated most of the important verses after "MEDINA." Medina was the turning point in Islamic history. If you want to know more about this you will have to research Muhammad and Medina and Mecca.
YmirGF, What you have said is profound. That is why it is necessary for some of us to go the origins of human belief, be it Judaism, or Islam, or Hinduism, or Taoism or Sharmainsm. Only then can we begin to see how human thought and ethics evolved and why. Then we will be able to recognise the...
This question has been adequately answered, but if Sahar chooses to interpret it himself within that framework, then it will be the consensus of Islamic interpretation that will judge if he has crossed the boundaries. There will be other artists or photographers who will not take that risk.
Jay, could it be because we have read different books, or believe in different religions? Tell us your views then, and I hope you will allow me to tell "others" my views. So we can exchange ideas or refute one another's ideas giving the source of the information?

I want to focus on one phrase:
I have not read that anywhere except, "if 'People of the Book' repent and accept Allah, they will enter Paradise (AS MUSLIMS NOT AS JEWS OR CHRISTIANS.)
So a link to your statement is essential to clarify this important point, because it could be most misleading...
erersgl, what I believe you are referring to is the "Principle of Abrogation" in the Quran. Let me post extracts:
Now, "abrogation" of Quranic verses was undertaken by the Prophet Muhammad with the authority of Allah, to update his ideology as circumstances changed for him.
Flankerl: I am glad that you have come out and stated that "you do not have to accept that the 3 Abrahamic faiths worship the One and Only God, the same God" even if some people advocate this view.
How some people can come to this conclusion that we worship the "same god" when it is abundantly...
