    Islam: when is a person considered a Muslim?

    You think it is? Why do you think so? The Qur'an simply tells you to adopt directives from the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ). That automatically means you need to follow the authentic ones - since others aren't from the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ). The hadith that are authentic have been verified by scholars...

    What do Muslims believe about Hagar, specifically --

    Hagar was a wife of the prophet Ibraaheem (peace be upon him) and the mother of Ishmael (peace be upon him). She was also the slave of Ibraaheem's wife Sarah who suggested he marry Hagar due to her thinking she herself was sterile. It is said Hagar was Egyptian. However, in Islam there is no...

    Islam: when is a person considered a Muslim?

    Are you saying that when a judge judges someone to be deserving of punishment, he is "bearing the burden" of the criminal? What your average judge bears is a particularly good salary and a respected social standing. That doesn't even address it. The law comes from the hadith. The Qur'an tells...

    Islam: when is a person considered a Muslim?

    That's their law - the question is, do they also claim to give everyone equal rights and to give everyone religious freedom? I'm listening.

    Are women more emotional than men?

    Having emotions is not the same as being emotional.

    Why is Saudi Arabia destroying ancient Islamic sites ?

    It is the repeated posting of an article that is propaganda in itself. And what is the actual complaint? That they built over some 300-year-old buildings? Is that a crime? Who cares? They're allowed to build what they want, aren't they? Do other countries preserve all their "historical" sites -...

    Why is Saudi Arabia destroying ancient Islamic sites ?

    Why are you bringing this topic up again? Smells like propaganda.

    Why is a man's sexual sins the woman's responsibility?

    I know you mean similar to children. I'm after, how is it similar to children? Someone brought it up earlier in the case of harassing women and said such men are immature. I was equally confused as I am now. Surely there is nothing in sexually harassing women that is similar to how children...

    Why is a man's sexual sins the woman's responsibility?

    Children? Is it children who judge you for your clothing? It's more than common to have baggy clothes while exercising. Why is it so unthinkable to you?

    Why is a man's sexual sins the woman's responsibility?

    One can function in something decent as well.

    Stop Funding Terrorists!

    My point, which I think was perfectly clear, is that you would consider Islam, if practiced right, as extremism and the same with Christianity and Judaism. It's like if I say, "I'm against all extremism - and people who have abortions are extremists." It's fine so long as you're being...

    Texas Law Banning Abortion After About Six Weeks Takes Effect

    In other words, you have no idea if the six weeks comment is true or not, nor do you have proof for it. Yes, if you want an abortion like this, you might want to skip those. Most women still get their period on hormonal birth control. Because it doesn't matter - it's just you. I know some...

    Stop Funding Terrorists!

    I think your idea of extremism doesn't apply to Taliban just, but also to Islam and would apply to Jewish and Christian laws if they were applied.

    Since the Islamic law (Sharia) has so many rules for woman, how about for the man?

    Don't play dodge ball with me, you changed the goal post. I disagree. It isn't that simple. First of all, what is violent? And when is it allowed? Your three-year-old has got a bottle of drain opener on her lips and you hit it off her hand and hit her at the same time - you had no time to do...

    Why is a man's sexual sins the woman's responsibility?

    I think it's the opposite. It is focusing on the irrelevant and I feel sorry for those women there that are in trouble and people elsewhere argue over whether they should be allowed in the government. Who wants to join the Taliban? Because that's what you're saying the women want. So, what...

    Stop Funding Terrorists!

    You probably think that of all religions, but who are you to say who should lead the country?

    Stop Funding Terrorists!

    Let's not forget that the US is the leading terrorist country. Is the Taliban worse? I don't know. I'm sure the Taliban has done less damage.

    Since the Islamic law (Sharia) has so many rules for woman, how about for the man?

    Depending on the situation. No, what you said earlier was You said "is allowed".

    Since the Islamic law (Sharia) has so many rules for woman, how about for the man?

    I knew it wasn't all you meant. I bet you don't believe in all the other stuff that I mentioned either. Oh you think the Qur'an has gone old, expired?

    Since the Islamic law (Sharia) has so many rules for woman, how about for the man?

    Many women "go along with it" having tried the so called "better" and being full well aware of what you think is "better". You didn't talk about being beaten - you said when he is allowed to raise a hand against you.
