    Little confused...Are Jews allowed to drink alcohol or is it a sin?

    I saw in the video that they were. I think it was the Morrocan Jews(the middle video) ...many women martyrs and saw people actually goin there crying and praying to them and they called them saints. anyways, am glad you go straight to Allah. Praying to anything or anyone is forbidden in...

    Little confused...Are Jews allowed to drink alcohol or is it a sin?

    I am on the last video :) I saw that they give the "groom" dowry...that is something we don't do in Islam. The groom is supposed to give the women dowry...the less the better in Islam. But many here in UAE, they give thousands upon hundreds of thousands of dirrhams as dowry (mahr)...that is...

    Little confused...Are Jews allowed to drink alcohol or is it a sin?

    That is something I didn't know yall had was intermediaries. You worship saints and pray to saints like an intermediary to get to Allah? I thought you prayed straight to him and him alone.

    Little confused...Are Jews allowed to drink alcohol or is it a sin?

    ok, I have another question :) How come the women were not allowed to read or write or study the books(said in video above so they made their own "songs" but that isn't the religion)? In Islam, women are no different than men when acquiring knowledge. Practicing it as well. So was wondering...

    Little confused...Are Jews allowed to drink alcohol or is it a sin?

    ok, so what you are sayin is you say you have the written text (Torah) and then you have the oral (like in our Islamic religion-We have Quran and the ahadith-sayings of Mohammad pubh and companions etc. that explain those texts)?

    Little confused...Are Jews allowed to drink alcohol or is it a sin?

    I totally understand that! When one is accused or presumes or assumes before the answer is established, or out of ignorance (not in a derogatory sense) but in a decent dialogue, people get agitated and start to criticize if it "sounds" offensive. I am truly trying to understand more about the...

    If Jesus, then why Paul?

    Paul taught the trinity, yes, was his gospel according to 2 Timothy 2:8 Jesus taught One God, that he himself could do nothing except by the one who sent him. Jesus didn't send himself and if that be the case, did Jesus die as a man or as a God?

    Little confused...Are Jews allowed to drink alcohol or is it a sin?

    Thank you for your explanation. I do have a question for you. When you say handed down or learned by previous generations, does this mean that they are constantly revising according to times? Do you believe that the first five books in the Bible as the Torah or translated words of man?

    Little confused...Are Jews allowed to drink alcohol or is it a sin?

    Consuming blood is forbidden. Allah says in Sura Ma'ida 5:3 The blood is considered najis (impure). Prohibited to you are dead animals, blood, the flesh of swine, and that which has been dedicated to other than Allah , and [those animals] killed by strangling or by a violent blow or by a...

    Little confused...Are Jews allowed to drink alcohol or is it a sin?

    Actually, even drinking small amounts according to many surveys online, says that drinking even in moderation decreases brain volume. Any significant loss of brain tissue will reduce the brain’s ability to function at an optimal level. Can alcohol mess up your mind? Even in the short term...

    Little confused...Are Jews allowed to drink alcohol or is it a sin?

    Yes, it is forbidden. Verses before the prohibition are there as well :) But it is indeed prohibited. There are three types of alcohol that jurists have determined. Drinkable alcohol that is obtained from fruit, sugarcane, and grains such as whiskey, liquor, vodka, beer, and so forth...

    Finally something useful if it passes for Ukraine.

    same here, what is the difference of a drone or a plane? They are both targeting Russia/Russians. Just one is bigger than the other...drones are very deadly and can cause serious harm. Why those instead of planes:boom:
