It seems some people understand universal as loose or without a distinct set of concepts and principals. Islam is a religion, it has a creed and a group of definitive teachings. The thing is how to create a balance between keeping these definitive views that give Islam its uniqueness and on the...
If one follows the cable news networks, it seems as if all terrorists are Muslims. It has even become axiomatic in some circles to chant: “Not all Muslims are terrorists, but nearly all terrorists are Muslims.” Muslims and their “leftist dhimmi allies” respond feebly...
I think any objective close observer of the Egyptian scene, can see that Morsi and his group are having a furious fight against anti-revolutionary forces which aim to destabilize the country so that they can blame MB for this. They are using the judiciary, media and thugs to spread chaos through...
Hey, if you and some Egyptians want to advocate secularism and convince the rest of Egyptians with secularism, you are free...but I am warning you these trials have showed miserable failures until now.
Are you actually saying that secularism prevent regimes from oppressing people?
When the US...
As I said I have no problem with anyone expressing their disapproval of Islam or any Islamic government. I don't disagree that a majority can oppress minorities. :shrug:
That's why I believe in Islam that prevents injustice to anyone living under its rule!
Oh yes the US didn't invade other...
I was not speaking about the Muslim Brotherhood but about the idea of preferring an Islamic rule over a secular one and respecting the people's choice. It's obvious that the majority of Egyptians don't prefer the latter form of governance. It's indeed frustrating when someone have no knowledge...

Oh my God! Deist, having hindu background and apostate too!! Definitely, this is going to turn really bad :sorry1:
No, not really! :D Welcome to Islam DIR

To be fair, on that violent day, indeed MB supporters did beat and torture people, which is condemned but also the opponent (with their thugs) did the same and worse; murdered 10 people with guns and rifles, 8 of them were Muslim Brotherhood members...
Oh given the oppressive history of Turkey's secularization :rolleyes:
People live in bad conditions because "religion is codified as law"!
You forgot to mention the fact that most of who were killed in that battle of the presidential palace were Muslim Brotherhood members...if the secularists...
I found this Fatwa interesting; issued by the European Council for Fatwa and Research, headed by the prominent Muslim scholar, Sheikh Yusuf Al-Qaradawi:
...Third: If the wife reverts to Islam while her husband remains on his religion, the Council sees the following:
1) If her reversion to Islam...
Sure, with repentance your sins turn into virtues! :) How lucky we are for having such a beautiful merciful God!
Alhamdulillah! Welcome back :) May Allah forgive our sins and bestow on us peace of mind and heart...ameen.
My friend, the government is not in actual control of anything and this is our problem now. People are killing each other and no one tells us who are responsible for all that!
I appreciate the rest of your post.
