This is my own view on the matter,
Once a person is true with himself\herself, this whole issue about how to talk with children about religion won't exist. I mean whatever your stance from religion is. If your conclusions regarding religion are based on clear, and true premises, you will be...
First, we have to define what Islam is..
As with all religions, there are those who speak in the name of that religion while they are its main enemies..
Then those who really speak of Islam are not necessarily to be in the majority..
Then, You acknowledge that at some point Islam was a light to...
It may not be appropriate to say this
But, a loss is a loss..
Just try not to be very attached to this vain world..
And you will not be able to do that fully..
May God protect us and all our loved ones..
And may he heal the hearts of those who suffered the pain of losing someone who was very...
It seems that you are well educated about Islam :)
What I would like to add..
Is that both Shia and Sunnis believe that Islam is the final religion..
Moreover, the prophet prohibit Muslims from interpreting the Quran based on their own opinions..
Also, for more than a century, the Sunni...
Hi all,
Here is a small introduction to a book that has just been published..
There is a something special about this book, which researches the topic of Wilayat-Al-Faqih (the Guardianship of the Islamic Jurist)..
This important point is that the author has done this research firstly for...
Hi,
As God made humans to live on the planet earth, humans may think that the only purpose of the planets are for some human-like creatures to live on them.
So First the planets may have many other purposes..
We humans are limited in our abilities..
We can't understand the purposes of all God...
Islam is the final religion of God, and Islam is calling the followers of the other Abrahamic religions to follow the Quran.
There is a difference between recognizing Christianity and Judaism as two religions which have been revealed by God, and saying that these religions have not been...
Since you have a specific meaning of the word "scribes" let me restate this point as follows:
The scriptures we are talking about have been changed and distorted.
Now, since you have raised the question, please excuse me to use a very open and unambiguous language:
This topic of distortion is...
I have been here for almost one decade!
As a Shia Muslim, I would say that most of the sufferings of the Shia Muslims, whether in the current age or in the past, were because of the radical sectarian Sunni groups..
However, I must say that there is a problem when it comes to relation between...
With respect:
1. you have not even read it all one time, rather than studying it deeply. The following point is not related, but i would like to say here that many Muslims are used to read the whole Quran tens of times every year.
2. You have surely read it in English not in its original...
I must say that in Shia Islam, God is not a material thing that has a body, shape, size ..etc..

If well performed, the five daily prayers - which involves reading parts of the Quran, invoking God and asking your needs, exalting God, and bowing and prostrating to God -can be considered as a form of meditation..
Similar things can be said about many other forms of Islamic worships, such as...
Man is more than slave to the One who created him..There is no bigger sin than the minute slave ignores the all powerful God..
Besides, this action means that you rebel against all the laws God has put for humans..How can this poor man wage a war against his holy God?!!
when it comes to reading the Quran, if you would not refere to the Hadith to fully understand it, at least you read it fully.
Here are one great example of a quranic verse that shows how God is the most merciful and he forgive all of the sins for whoever repent to him:
However, I must say...
This life is full of evil. Just imagine if people have unlimited power, how would they behave..
We have seen how people like Hitler and Sadam tortured the innocent people..
Such people deserve what God decided for them..
Then for those who are committing sins and even crimes out of ignorance...
Here is my latest related SM post:
Wahhabis believe that Allah SWT is a very very big body with two real eyes, two big hands and face, literally sitting above the throne (Arsh). Their books are replete with explicit statements attesting to this. We have posted some evidences that this is their...
