Satan is as powerful as an Angel except he has free will unlike Angels. But in the end, he will submit to God.
In Islam, Satan is not fighting God nor he is the bringer of Evil. He's the king of a group of Jinn that are committed to prove that Humans are not better than Jinn and vowed to...
Islam needs a complete shake down and to be rebuilt again and simplified. Muslims throughout history have been deforming Islam. So Mislims are Islam's biggest enemy. I've read from few examples of those who think they are good Muslims in this thread.
There's something non-Muslims need to keep...
Just leave those third world countries alone and let them overthrow their dictators that are supported by the west.
It is the continuous occupation of these countries by the west whether directly or indirectly that has lead them to this state.
If you think Islam is the reason these countries...
To avoid confusion, I reiterate my sympathy with any minority that faced persecution, such as Jews in the last few centuries (I watched the Pianist and like any human being I felt sad for their suffering, no one should suffer like that and hopefully the world is becoming a better place slowly...
First, in Islam we respect the Holy books of Christianity and Judaism. We belief that there's in them some of the words of God.
Second, burning books, flags or pics is a ridiculous thing in the first place. It does not achieve anything. Dialog does. So the burning of any book is against my...
Ok, so freedom stops at physical harm, but emotional harm is not a problem. That's the collective understanding from what i read here.
The freedom to harm to protect freedom is ok too. I think i get it now.:rolleyes:
Hmm.. do you mean to say that these books are his property and we are investing our emotions is books that are not ours?!
If so, then he is not burning them as a material or property, he is burning them as a symbol which he does not own. Right?
That's what moderate Muslim and clerks are doing now. They are trying to calm the masses by demonstrating that this is an act of hate by a group, not a nation. I refuse to stereotype anyone as much as i don't want others to stereotype Muslims.
But the problem is that many people are supporting...
Forgiveness is very rewarded in Islam, but it is not forgiveness in the sense of turning the other cheek. As in it is not the forgiveness of offenders while they are offending. It is the forgiveness of a repenter.
I'm from Syria, my grand father used to tell us about the times when Jews where living together with Muslims peacefully just like Christians do nowadays. There used to be neighborhoods of Jews and they were treated as any other Syrian. Just like Christians in Syria do today.
But they all...
Can you read what i marked as bold again and tell me that i'm a jew hater, not a Zionism hater?!
Ok, i think i should have put a DOT instead of comma in this phrase. If that's what caused the misunderstanding, then my bad.
Just to re-assure that harming any innocent not involved in this is not right and not acceptable by Islam or Muslims. I'm not defending harming innocents.
Ignoring this action is not easy for us, you guys are really underestimating what Islam means to a muslim.
you are calling this anger...
I really don't know. Of course i don't support hurting the innocents who had nothing to do with the burning, like in Afghanistan for example. They have nothing to do with this, but the anger will be too hot for sensibility and thinking.
The love for God, The quran and Mohammad (PBUH) is huge...
What purpose does it serve ?
Commanding General, U.S. Ambassador Criticize Pastor's Plan To Burn The Quran : The Two-Way : NPR
After the outrage of Muslims, people will call us "Violent" ... what do you want Muslims to do?! Take a bill and chill?!
I agree with Starsoul.
The situation in Palestine is very sad. The Arab-Israeli conflict is maybe the biggest problem between the middle east and the west. Without this , things would've been much better for sure. The Iraq invasion did not help at all and the US is not very welcome.
It is...
The occupation of Palestine is not because it is a Muslim country, even though that made it easier for them. But they have their religious reasons and it happened to be a Muslim country. They consider it their Holy land as much as we do. Of course It does not justify their occupation at all, but...
