    Textual editing in the Quran

    Higher critism has been done with the Qur'an since very early on in Islam. The thing is that some orientalist don't want to face the facts that we have and like to take such events as the burning done by Uthman and make it into something it's not. Here is a very very brief article about the...

    Ghostdog's questions on Islam

    I'm a bit confused but I'm guessing you are asking how Islam effects my daily life. Well thats a tough question. I would say that my daily life is a struggle to try and live according to the teachings of the Qur'an and the Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). I don't think I completely...

    Well, let me start off by saying that Islam isn't just a religion it's a complete way of life. For every aspect of life there is something that Islam has to say about it. In Islam we get our info from the Qur'an and the Sunnah (which are the sayings and examples of the Prophet Muhammad...

    The Female Muslim Prayerleader Caused A Stir Then?

    The Qur'an and the Sunnah of Muhammad (pbuh) thats who says how it's suppose to be. I don't care what any other Muslim does, Islam is about based on these two things not what some "mulsim" countries are doing today. Anything, any idea can be used and twisted towards the agenda of those who...

    what do you think of the inside of my head?

    (continued) I have to disagree with you again at this point, for the Qur'an tells us in surah 112, "Say: He is Allah, the One and Only! Allah is He on Whom all depend. He begets not, nor is He begotten. And there is none comparable unto Him." We, in Islam, don't believe that Allah created us...

    what do you think of the inside of my head?

    To Distracto, Although I'm not quite sure what kind of a response your looking for, other than a Muslim's, I guess I will go through your beliefs and just give you the Muslim prespective. From this I gather that you believe that we should be living our lives in accordance with God's laws, and...

    what do you think of the inside of my head?

    I'm just curious as to why you posted this. Are you looking for our opinions on what you had to say? Why did you choose to post this in the section about Islam, are you looking for just a Muslim response? I'm confused.

    a letter to the muslims

    To Lilithu, Very well said, and informative post. However, I did notice one mistake that you made. You said: The revelations weren't handed down to Muhammad (pbuh) in the course of a month, but rather the course of 22 to 23 years. The first revelation was revealed in the month of Ramadan...
