    Violent verses from Allah

    I've read the Quran and there are some verses in it that make me question the nature of Allah. For example : "Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth...

    Metaphorical vs literal interpretation of punishment laws in Islam.

    Peace everyone. But the Prophet left among you the same which other Prophets left among their peoples, because Prophets do not leave them untended (in dark) without a clear path and a standing ensign, namely the Book of your Creator clarifying its permission and prohibitions, its obligations...

    Why do they look so different?

    Ham had 2 children, Mizraim (Egypt) and Cush (Ethiopia). Both brothers must have looked similar, because they have the same father and mother. Now my question is, why do the Ethiopians look so different from today's Egyptians? Why are the Ethiopians black but the modern Egyptians white and that...

    Are today's Egyptians Semites or Hamites?

    Today's Egyptians look like Arabs(semitic) and speak Arabic(semitic). So, I would say they are Semites. But many Egyptians say they are the descendants of the Ancient Egyptians. This confuses me a little. How can they be Semites and Hamites at the same time? Because we know that Mizraim (the...

    Can you answer these three questions?

    Can God destroy Himself? If not, is he omnipotent at all? Can God create another Almighty God? If not, is he omnipotent at all? Can God create a being that is more powerful than himself? If not, is he omnipotent at all? If yes, was he omnipotent at all?

    Who are you?

    (this question is only addressed to Christians, Muslims and Jews) If I asked you who you are and where you come from, could you answer me Biblically whether you are a Hamite, a Semite or a Japhetite? And do you also know from which tribe of the respective father you come? Personally I am sure...

    Sounds of Hell (With Recording)

    During the Cold War, the USA and the Soviet Union began to compete over who would be the first to land on the moon. We know that the USA won this race. That's why the USSR wanted to set another record - drill the deepest hole in the world to the center of the Earth! In 1970 the Soviet...

    Polygamy - An inquiry of the Quran (for some this maybe offensive)

    POLYGAMY….. “Marry women of your choice, two, and three, and four”, is a very famous quote that most apologists, use to answer the normal question about polygamy, in Islam. These are the same Islamic apologists who insist on reading the context when debating with Christian evangelists like...

    Slavery and Quran - An inquiry

    Most readers would find it astonishing to hear that slavery still exists in the modern world. Though the practice was abolished officially it is still very much alive. According to a study done by the International Labour Organisation the estimated number of slaves has increased from 12.3...

    Seal of the Prophets - Does it mean Muhammad is the final Prophet?

    Khatam an-Nabiyyin, usually translated as Seal of the Prophets, is a title used in the Quran to designate the Prophet Muhammad. Among Muslims, it is generally regarded to mean that Muhammad was the last of the prophets sent by God. The title khatam an-nabiyyin or khatim an-nabiyyin, is applied...

    Quran Yes. Hadith No.

    According to Surat Ali-Imran and Surat An'Nisa, and basically the WHOLE Quran make the existence of the Hadith HARAM. Why? Simply because they added new sins. That is creating a lie or falsehood against Allah. Ask yourself, what's more important, the word of GOD or the jumbled up inaccuracies...

    Child marriages - Does the Quran promote it?

    A child cannot be married off. I write this because I have seen many speak of Islam, Quran and child marriages. I know that the internet is full of lists if you search for what you need as tools to slander another theology. There are all kinds of lists. But have you studied it? That’s the...

    Questions no one can answer

    I believe in God but sometimes I ask myself these questions: 1. Why is there a God who created everything? Why is there no God and therefore nothing? 2. Why is God good and just and not bad and unjust? 3. Can God the Almighty "destroy" Himself? If not, is he almighty at all? Can God the...

    Gender segregation exists in most Mosques in the world today where women and men are in seperate spaces or rooms in a Mosque. In some places women can't attend mosques at all.

    Jihad is not just for self-defence

    Jihad is actually also fighting against injustice, and not just for the sake of Muslims either. Secondly it isn't only fighting for Muslim nations or even current Muslims. It is fighting for Muslims who live in non-Muslim countries (who are oppressed) and it is fighting for the freedom for...
