    Group Reading: The Qur'an

    Salaam alaikum, The assigned reading and discussion is Ayats (verses) 51-120 of Surah Bakarah. This is not strictly 1/3 of the Juz but I added 20 ayat because they fall under the same theme so it is better to read them as one than to split them up The next assigned reading will be on...

    Chemical warfare: What's so bad about it?

    Chemical warfare has been categorically banned by the majority of nation states since the conclusion of World War I as a particularly reprehensible means of conducting warfare. A couple reasons for this. As some have so blithely commented dead is dead and the end result is the same. The...

    Tunisian girls return home pregnant after Syria 'Sexual Jihad’

    I don't think all Salafis are terrorists, that is a blanket generalization and blatant ignorance. It is labeling an entire country of Muslims and condemning them as fasadis one of the worst crimes in Islam. I do think that the revivalist puritanical movement of Muhammad ibn abd al-wahhab has...

    Tunisian girls return home pregnant after Syria 'Sexual Jihad’

    In case members don't remember or know Al-Wahhab is one of the beautiful and blessed names of Allah sub hanahu wa ta'ala. If you have disagreement or anger towards a movement, a person, or people fine. But it is not acceptable for pious Muslims with taqwa to attack, belittle, or make a mockery...

    Chemical warfare: What's so bad about it?

    Encourage you to read about the physiological response to such chemical agents as nerve gas and then have the gall to ask "what's so bad about it". What a terrible rhetorical question, have some shame.

    Folk Islam

    They do no't condemn anything, but they establish that there can be plurality in religions but for us [Muslims] there is only Islam. Again the problem with syncreticism is that you are taking inspiration from un-Islamic sources And that is your prerogative but please understand that this is the...

    Folk Islam

    Surat Al-Kafirun - The Noble Qur'an - ?????? ?????? Then I wish you the best and fulfillment in it. Perhaps if you would post the specific verse we could discuss it? That's ok. Either way in Islam we draw understanding about religion and our existance from the Qur'an which is the word of God and...

    Folk Islam

    No sorry Islam, unlike other religions, has clearly defined boundaries and has retained its orthodoxy more than any other religion. It is a very great sin to mix the religion of Allah with practices of animism and other beliefs.

    Reza Aslan and Fox News

    He wasn't speaking from an Islamic point of view but rather from the academic point of view. Also the Islamic point of view is that he wasn't crucified but that Allah raised Jesus to heaven replacing his physical body. That latter part is essentially impossible to prove using a historical record...

    Saying: Zaid and "Lord Muhammad"

    Salaam, If you are unsure of where the hadith comes from or its validity then it is incorrect to assume that Muslims believe it is true. This hadith was narrated not by Zaid but by Anas ibn Malik who served in the household of the Prophet sallallhu alayhi wa sallam. None of the translated...

    Group Reading: The Qur'an

    I used the recitation at Quran.com and Muhammad Assad's translation. Salaam Union, I agree. From verses 1-30 revolve around the believers, those who are "bent on denying the truth", and the hypocrites (these are a well known group of seditionists who tried to destroy Islam internally). Verses...

    Need Spiritual Help

    Salaam Taahir, I wish you the best inshallah you will find a helpful shaykh near you. I also remembered a book that I thought might interest you. It's called The Road to Mecca by Muhammad Assad (the very same who authored the influential translation of the Qur'an). It is the story of a European...
