Ask About Islam

[KWED]

maybe you got uncle in the wrong place?

The Prophet pbuh was asked how come the baby sometimes resembles the father and sometimes resembles the mother, and he said: “If the water of the man precedes the water of the woman, the child will resemble him, and if the water of the woman precedes the water of the man, the child will resemble her.” Muslim

And as that is demonstrably nonsense, it is clear evidence that Muhammad did not have any miraculous knowledge on the subject.
He was asked a question and gave an incorrect answer.

 

[KWED]

He is saying why sometimes he resembles mom's side of family over father's side of the family or vice versa. Rasool (s) says, it's which fluid of the mother or father is dominant.

But it doesn't actually say that, does it? That is merely disingenuous, post hoc manipulation. It actually says that resemblance depends on which parent ejaculates first - which is just wrong.

 

[Birdnest]

I meant when people misquote the "If you kill one person it is as if you have killed all mankind" bit, but ignore 5:33 that explicitly states that people can be tortured to death for "spreading mischief".

That's a legal punishment. Crucifixion is for killing and stealing.

Not really.

I said it's not so much about.

You are mixing the hadiths. Anyways, a person once did a study on how scientifically accurate are the "medical" advice of Imams (a) in hadiths. About 60% were accurate, and 40% not scientifically accurate if I recall correctly. And that is what we expect since you have some people fabricating hadiths and other people truthful.

 

[ppp]

That is not what "straw man" means. I'm sure someone has already explained it.

Yep. And you got totally offended that anyone would correct him for a word definition! It's ridiculous.

 

[KWED]

I am very dubious, as these kind of claims that the Quran contains only recently discovered scientific facts, usually turn out to be laughably false, with the most tenuous assertions being interpreted to mean things they don't remotely explain.

Indeed. In this case a hadith that explains that family resemblance depends on "which parent ejaculates first", has been changed to "which fluid is dominant".
So dishonest. *smh*

The one in Tafsir hassan al-Askari (a) says which one is dominant.

 

[KWED]

Okay that is none-sense, but the quote I referenced is in tafsir Hassan Al-Askari (a).

But the claim that you reject as nonsense is the statement of Muhammad himself!

A different chain then the one I am talking about. Two different hadiths.

Really? I explained in the post you replied to, why pork is prohibited in Islam...
"Because it was already forbidden in some of the beliefs and cultures that inspired Islam"

Right. That was a general taboo in the region. One of the reasons that the Philistines were so hated was because they didn't observe that particular taboo.

 

[KWED]

More on the joke side. But who knows

So you really think that it is a possibility that non-Muslims like pork because it offends Muslims.
Fair enough.

 

[KWED]

It does. It means if there is a soul, then we know what a soul is. The question is not about how we would know or not. It's then about if do we know or not.

OK. What is "a soul"?

I am not sure. You guys really might like it more because we can't eat it. Psychological I'm "non-Muslim" factor, they miss out on bacon factor.

It's light that has value from God or darkness.. or mix.

 

[ppp]

There is no sin in adultery or prostitution if you don't follow a religion that "proscribes it", either.
However, as far as @Link is concerned, they are all transgressions of "the law" .. sins.

Exactly. Which is why neither has any place as a constraint in our legal system.

 

[KWED]

I gave you a link one time to a video clip and there were scientific examples of the Quran and I told you, IF YOU ARE TRUTHFUL, to go and find one thing wrong with the facts in that video. All you did was ignore it and still make fun. You are a charlatan and refuse any knowledge that we put forth-your right to do, but you cannot go against PURE PROOF of the sciences in the Quran which have been proven and YOU IGNORED. So go ahead and laugh all you want. Just shows more of your character.

You can talk!
You have ignored every single one of my points, questions and responses.

@KWED

He's a proof for God. I never seen your response to this video of mine.

Which is facile nonsense of course. Would you like a link to an explanation of recessive and dominant genes? That explains it quite well, this observation doesn't come close to explaining anything about what we now know from genetics.

"The most common interaction between alleles is a dominant/recessive relationship. An allele of a gene is said to be dominant when it effectively overrules the other (recessive) allele. Eye colour and blood groups are both examples of dominant/recessive gene relationships."

"Dominant refers to the relationship between two versions of a gene. Individuals receive two versions of each gene, known as alleles, from each parent. If the alleles of a gene are different, one allele will be expressed; it is the dominant gene. The effect of the other allele, called recessive, is masked."

 

[KWED]

That's a legal punishment. Crucifixion is for killing and stealing.

As I already said, all societies forbid unlawful killing, so the claim is meaningless.

However, it is interesting that you believe torturing people to death is an appropriate punishment for "fasad" (Which includes things such as disbelief and disobeying god's law).

 

[Sheldon]

stop bullying please

That's another false accusation, and I am more than happy for others to read the exchanges, and see that it is false. You are the one who keeps demanding that I leave and stop posting after all. All I have done is respond to posts made, and the addressed the content.
