" Bush invites obama and clinton for a secret talk in a bar to discuss something of grave importance. They all sit down as obama and clinton ask bush what is it about.
He leans forward and says' Well, we're about to kill...
All I have to say is that I love all these unexpected coincidences, which I've never really thought about, and yet they happen, somehow to bring you to something that is always the right one for you. Again, I was craving for some real chocolate stuff and out of nowhere we had to stop by at an...
Essential to eachother , as the body is a tool to reach and continuously enrich the spiritual self. It isn't without the other, but neither spiritual recognition is obtained merely by tending only to the biological self, its sphere of wants are much broader, and at times, at odds with the far...

But he did not blame eve, according to the Quran, I hear that to be a christian concept, in Islam, he realized his own mistake and sought forgiveness from ALLah for himself and eve, so did eve, none blamed the other.
yes you're spot on. Some part of the dialogue between God and Iblis is also included in the Quran. When God created man and asked all his creation to bow down to man, all did except, the King of Jins (he was later called Iblees), when God asked ' what stopped you from obeying my orders?' the Jin...
hi,
Have a quick question, I am always confused that Ahmadis insist on the Prophethood of Mirza Ghulam, as Imam Mahdi and Jesus (pbuh)(two personalities in one), But he clearly did not possess any characteristic of these personalities, neither do his descendants. ?
Also, jinns are made of fire, and are a creation of Allah swt. But in position ,man is considered superior to all creation and Called as the best of all creation.
Not sure if I should be posting in here since it seems like a christian debate but since it is in the general debate section,
I don't think God creates Evil, he creates free will and people choose to convince themselves and utilize their intelligence towards evil. But that of corse is a...
It seems as if the fear and paranoia has expounded exponentially and made its way into every person's mind. How is it going to work for another 10 years!! People are bound to snap one way or the other just because of all this paranoia...

Well that could also mean that all men were referred to as the sons of God, which did not imply specifically to jesus, and jesus, just like everybody else was the creation of God but at a Prophetic position, just like other Prophets.( thats my understanding) May I ask what does seth, enosh stand...
I don't understand one thing, trinitarians/christians believe jesus to be the son of God since jesus did not have a biological father.
What about Adam then? The first man on Earth had neither a biological father or a mother, why don't they call him the son of God, while he had neither of a...

Hasan ran into trouble in Egypt, however, after a controversy arose over who should succeed the Fatimid caliph. The Fatimids, who ruled Egypt at the time, were the heads of the Ismailis, a sect of Islam that separated from the mainstream Shiites. Before the Fatimid caliph died, he...
