Background: In another thread @Limo has proposed that the Quran never contradicts science.

While some spiritual practices abandoned self-care and cleanliness to attain high spirituality, Islam made it obligatory to clean oneself in preparation for daily prayers.

[Shakir 10:102] What do they wait for then but the like of the days of those who passed away before them? Say: Wait then; surely I too am with you of those who wait.

I have an assignment due Friday midnight, so will just be introducing this topic, which I hope we all will enjoy despite how controversial it may seem.
I am going to proposing meanings to the mysterious letters of Quran and how I got to them. Now, I know A Sunni will say, look at this Rafidi...
Peace and blessings,
I believe the belief in hell is a very rational belief to have and that a holy book that claims that is the result of x or y type people, it must justify why and manifest this beyond doubt.
There are different reasons as to why hell exists and why it's perpetual and never...
Ismail and "Hajar"
One of the things I noticed in Quran, is that Quran says not a word regarding Hajar who supposedly was a slave of Abraham and Sarah and who Abraham had Ismail through. Somethings to recall is that according to the Torah, Abraham had other children before that, but it was...
There are many places in the Quran where Taurat, Zabur, Injil, Quran are mentioned.
1. Muslims, Jews and Christians predominantly believe that these are all books that were written down in the past at some point. Each faith of course would vary in their interpretation of this idea but were...
Is there a system in Nature/Universe, and in Quran/the only secure and pristine truthful Word of G-d?

So i did a word for word study on Salaat/Prayer and found out: Salaat in Arabic means to follow something closely. The Arabic meaning of the word fits the context of the Quran if you pay attention! Salaat/Prayer is a Book that is scheduled, 3 times per day, in the morning, afternoon and evening...

It is common knowledge that Islam allows women to be beaten. Most traditional translators have interpreted this verse 4:34 to propagate the same. Some even go to the length of quoting a hadith that says beat her with a toothbrush. Picture a man beating a woman with a toothbrush. Traditionally...
I read the Quran, Gospel, Tora and i am reading the Avesta, and doing research about the Vedas. In the Quran there is are verses about science which i wonder how they could be written 1400 years ago. These verses are being proved to be true in just the last 200 years.
