I think poverty would become unbearable for most poor people. Society would also become more sexually corrupted and move away from traditional family unit. There would be more wars and acts of terrorism as people would be severely impatient having no hope in reward in the next world for their...

Surah 112 has a proper place in the Quran. It's proper place is of course with the small Surahs and how it ends, but also, a big relevance is how much Quran repeated about unity of God, and how this chapter is very short and eloquent in that regard.
Indeed to bring a structure like...

I don't know if it will do a difference for you, but the translation is off slightly. It says "The Jews said..." as in past tense. "Yaqaloon" would the translation you have there. This maybe referring to a time and place where they said this in history, not referring to totality of Jews...

وَقَالُوا مَا لَنَا لَا نَرَىٰ رِجَالًا كُنَّا نَعُدُّهُمْ مِنَ الْأَشْرَارِ | And they will say, ‘Why is it that we do not see [here] men whom we used to count among the most evil? | Saad : 62
There is this hadith:

I will keep short and clean: those who believe in propaganda of the devil that they see best humans as the worse and vice versa, and trust words of deceivers over God and the truthful guides sent by God and their supporters, deserve hell forever, and they are the source of all suffering in both...
A lot of religions don't believe there religion contains clear proofs and evidence. And that's subject to experience and views. So from that perspective, it's more understandable if a religion sees itself relatively equal to others.
The standards of Quranic goodness enough to enter paradise are pretty high. The good news per Quran is that if we pray to God and seek his help, he will guides us and aide us by a spirit from him.
We probably all can't just destroy desire of the life of this world on our own. But if we desire...
I think it's not only gay people but Quran has it that anyone who wants the life of this world as opposed to striving for the next, to be in hell.
Gay people tend to emphasize they should be accepted because it's not a choice they made. I believe it is a choice but one that develops early on...
I'm saying we should seek the truth. We should neither reject people out of whims of wanting a religion to be true nor should we reject the one true God for want of accepting people as good who would otherwise be deemed evil in his judgment.
I didn't reason about sexuality outside of what...
I'm saying this where researching truth is important. We don't want to reject people for false whims of a fake Prophet nor do we want to reject the one true God because evil transgressors present themselves as good and acceptable.

I think the most difficult thing in Islam, is that you have to reject many people. That is you don't accept them as good people but rather are evil destined to hell.
But the flip side of that, is because humanity has not united on guidance of God, the rebellious can be forcing accepting...
Imam Jaffar (a) from Misbahal Shariah:
The roots of conduct have four aspects: conduct with Allah, conduct with the self, conduct with creation (i.e. people), and conduct with this world. Each of these aspects is based upon seven principles, just as there are seven principles of conduct with...
That doesn't make sense. How can we fear doing evil without evil itself being evil and good without good being good in itself. I'm saying when you see the path, there is a greater motivation then just the acts of empathy and justice as far as avoiding evil which is avoiding forever doom. But we...
