So then, Islam is like Bernie Sanders? The blame the rich thing? Are you so sure there weren't poor people in those other places? How does Islam define poor and rich? So, if you have hospitals, clean drinking water, things like that, are you rich or just advanced, perhaps for what it's worth a more democratic society?

Well .. as far as I understand, being reasonably wealthy isn't a problem in itself, if one gives the poor their share .. and I mean over and above national/regional taxes.

Having a prosperous society is OK .. what is not OK is an unbalanced society where the poor are relatively ignored .. particularly when there is a wealthy 'religious community' amongst them.
How the wealth is gathered is also of utmost importance

I have to agree with you on that. But I am concerned with what I see as a growing communist-Islamic extremist alliance. I hope you do not advocate Osama bin type socialism-communism. Bin Laden had Marxist and socialist books on his book shelf - communism is a European form of imperialism that even got into China wreaking traditional Chinese culture with foreign hegemony founded in part by European leftist Jews.

Some people don't like the truth .. that's often because they are brought up in a liberal society and don't realise that it is not sustainable. In fact, I wonder what will happen if the EU breaks up due to selfishness/nationalism
You're right: these secular liberals in the west deny the truth and wisdom of Jehovah and his message, they just don't seem to like the truth.

No, that it where my parents are from. . .

Fair enough, which country do you reside in now if you don't mind me asking?

Evidence can be manipulated. Do you agree?
if someone recites the holy quran carefully and ponder to its content, realizes that the holy Quran is not human word and its the devine miracle.
i invite you to study this devine books to test its sweetness.
God almighty in chapter 2, verse 23 of the holy quran invite others that if they dont believe the devineness of the holy quran bring one chapter like this!
and confirms that the holy quran is God's revelation.
God says in this verse:
And if you are in doubt as to that which We have revealed to Our servant, then produce a chapter like it and call on your witnesses besides Allah if you are truthful.
and also confirms and guaranteed maintaining his final books for guidance of all mankind.
in chapter 15, verse 9, the all merciful God says:
Surely We have revealed the Reminder and We will most surely be its guardian
Yes. How do you know that for certain?

I have seen people attribute a work to God Almighty because something in the work sparks of God Almighty. I do not understand why the whole work must be by Allah just because, it seems very obvious to the reader, that some of the work is by Allah.

I have not read the Quran, but I have heard of it. I have read the whole Bible, some of it many, many times, and I can see that some of it is by Jehovah.
I can see that not all of it is.

How does a person go from some is right, to, it must all be right?

A few things..

1. the nature of the Qur'an ie. from one source
2. the age of the revelation
3. the hadiths that support it

amongst other things
Does number 2 mean that the length of time something is believed in makes it credible or not?

Does that make sense to you?

When it is new, it might not be true, but if it gets old enough, it becomes true.

Or am I misunderstanding what your number two means?

I also have a question about number one. Even if the writer of the Quran was writing right this minute and planned to call the work his own, how can we trust he wrote it alone ie "from one source"?

I remember someone on the forum attributing my posts to more than just me, but I post alone, that is if you don't count Jesus.

No .. it means that it hasn't been "handed down" as some scrolls in the Bible

That is about faith ie. whether one believes Muhammad, peace be with him, was God's messenger or not..

Any newcomers and any members can ask me a question on here as much as they want.

It can be anything besides inappropriate things and insulting remarks being made.
Do you remember Lots wife? Why do some typically have the argument against Christians or others who have the old testament in their books about lot and his too daughters, to mask it over the things of Muhammad, are they the same even or possible that's entrapping you?

Do you follow both the Quran and Hadits? State why for any of your answer.

Okay Jabar, if indeed you can answer any question, I have a very serious one. According to Judaism Tribal genealogy goes down generations through the father and adoption is not valid to inherit the genealogy of the adopting father. The child has to be a biological son of the Father. Also according to Judaism the Messiah is supposed to come from the Tribe of Judah.
Now, the question is: Where is the validity of the Christian claim that Jesus was the Messiah if he was not a biological son of Joseph who was the one from the Tribe of Judah? They seem not to accept a Jewish opinion. Perhaps they will agree with a Muslim. So, what is the answer?

Given god inspired Muhammad to write the Quran, the Quran would be god's word (literal scripture) without anyone believing in it. It would stand alone.

Since it would stand alone, what characteristics about the Quran could someone pick up who knows nothing at all about Islam, Quran, and any Abrahamic faith (I met many) that would show this person these characteristics came from god and not Muhammad? How does the Quran let this person know the words he reads comes from god and no the author of the book himself?

How did you know that what you read came from god and not the author? Was it something inside you that clicked? If so, that would not make sense (but I won't go into it) because the person above doesn't have knowledge of Islam. You have your whole life. So there is no preconceived idea before the belief has been presented.

So, is there an isolated way that anyone who knows nothing about the Quran will know that what they read is actually from god and not Muhammad? How would they know? What evidence (not what is written in the Quran) is there that would show this person who god is internally? How does the words of the Quran reach a person's heart to where they automatically know it speaks from a creator and not Muhammad only?

How did you know it was from the creator? What evidence that other people will recognize as well, that let you know that the Quran speaks of god? Is it just what it it says about itself or is there something more that anyone can see without needing to be Muslim to understand?
hello.
the proofs are very plenty and understanding truth is very easy.
its enough to read english translation of the holy quran.
by study and pondering about its meaning, you can very easy test the sweetness of divine word.
always when i face a problem or have question, i can find my answer from Quran and i think that God speeks with me and present the solution for my query!
you can read its english translation to taiste the sweetness of divine word which is mercy and guidance for all mankind.
1. In the name of Allah, the all Beneficent, the most Merciful.
2. All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds.
3. The Beneficent, the Merciful.
4. Master of the Day of Judgment.
5. Thee do we serve and Thee do we beseech for help.
6. Keep us on the right path.
7. The path of those upon whom Thou hast bestowed favors. Not [the path] of
those upon whom Thy wrath is brought down, nor of those who go astray.

Does Islam teach its followers to kill all who are not Muslim---Koran 2:191?

hello.
no.
islam has respects for all people.
islam even does not allow us to kill even animals without any reason or cut any tree without any reason!
islam does not allow its followers to start war against any country, ethnicity etc.
did you read verses 8 and 9 of chapter 60?

Allah does not forbid you respecting those who have not made war against you
on account of [your] religion, and have not driven you forth from your homes,
that you show them kindness and deal with them justly; surely Allah loves the
doers of justice.
Allah only forbids you respecting those who made war upon you on account of
[your] religion, and drove you forth from your homes and backed up [others] in
your expulsion, that you make friends with them, and whoever makes friends with
them, these are the unjust.
