    What is the difference between Sunni and Shi’a Islam?

    Yah unfortunately shia developed for political reasons which I find ridiculous, no offense. An innovation in Islam. They still believe the basics, however have different views on other matters. Again if you read the history you will see that it was a political party and based on politics.

    Muslims only

    Again the same standard applies to this issue. In regards to this, the Prophet was the first muslim amongst his people he was living amongst and thus commanded, and thus being the first in Islam amongst them. Again Moses was the first to believe among his people the Children of Israel. As...

    wow this is amazing to me. All peoples of faith are welcomed to the mosque here be you christian or jew, as long as you aren't there to cause any trouble. So, i dont see what the big issue is. And a muslims is not prohibited from entereing a church or synagogue. Good luck to you.

    Religious Wars

    I personally think that religion is used as a smoke screen , to gather support for a war, yet the real reason behind that war is with those who wage it. For example the Crusades. Do you truly think that the europeans travelled miles just to take jersualem from the infidels.....or was there more...

    Muslims only

    In response to the hidden meanings in the Quran it says: 3:7 He it is Who has sent down to thee the Book: In it are verses basic or fundamental (of established meaning); they are the foundation of the Book: others are allegorical. But those in whose hearts is perversity follow the part thereof...

    The Eminence Islam Attaches To Women

    It doesnt seem to me that you want to be taught. Learning stops when you feel that you know it already. Anyhow, Salam you are right, most converts I know have been women. This is not new, out of the reports I have read it seems to be the same nationwide. For those who do not approve of the...

    The Eminence Islam Attaches To Women

    linwood i am sorry to say, but you are the one who is the uneducated person here on this matter. I know Islam, you are the one who interpreting as to mean beat her, do you know the term in arabic? Anyone of scholarship knows the details of this verse through the study of the traditions, so you...

    The Eminence Islam Attaches To Women

    This is an interesting conversation indeed. Salam is not trying to hide anything here, this is his sincere understanding of his religion. If you do not agree with his understanding, well who are you to condemn him? As far as this verse: Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because...

    The Eminence Islam Attaches To Women

    I do not think it is wise to look at any nation that is predominately Muslim and say, "See Islam treats women like animals." It would be same if I took all the nations that are predominately Christians and said, "Look all those Christian nations treat women like whores." It would be wise to...

    The Concept of God In Islam

    This question of 'we' always occurs. This is what happens when you translate one language into another. In arabic there are different types of plurals........a plural of number and a plural of respect in regards to authority. That is why 'we' is used many times in the Quran. It is the same way...

    Ask Moslems

    This is a common idea in some pagan religions, the idea of worshipping God through statues. Statues have no power , no reason, not anything to do for anyone. They name these statues and say they are different Gods, this is only a saying from their own lips. Gerani says that the statues represent...

    Iraq: What would you have done?

    All I have to say about this issue is that there were no WMDs when Bush invaded Iraq.....Iraq had NOTHING to do with 9/11 and Iraq had nothing to do with Al queda.....and according to the UN Charter....it is absolutely ILLEGAL to wage wars of aggression......as a result G. Bush and his...

    What is the highest/best virtue?

    I think that one virtue must be balanced by others. To love is not enough, it should be coupled with justice and other things. Love is a very general idea applied to many aspects of life. However, if one were not to choose any religion or ideology to follow I would say that the best thing every...

    Terror

    Well, I think we should first define the word 'terrorism.' It is not only committed as of late by Al Queda or whatever group you want to accuse, many people would find the United States as a terrorist state. Specifically speaking, invading a country that had no intention of invading yours. As a...

    Biggest turnoff to Christianity

    I would have to say the biggest issue for me is the whole concept christianity is based on , a triune one God. It doesn't make sense as much and as hard as they try to explain it, it never adds up. But also it is hard to generalize, I don't want to use the bigot Pat Robertson as the model of...

    Proof of Jesus's "Miracles"

    No one can ever prove Jesus ever did those things outside of using their bible. Never. That is the only source they have to attest to it.

    Today, in Muslim History

    Short, kinda sloppy, but not too bad. However, some could be mislead that those 10,000 people who entered mecca came to slay the inhabitants, which was not the case, that never happened. To the suprise of them, Muhammd did not shed blood.
