Devadatta, your view as a non-Muslim is very appreciated in this dialog. Obviously you have come to this facts based on your reading and understanding. Maybe not as accurate as we Muslims have learnt, but nevertheless a good effort on your part to understand Islam. You've mentioned.. It is...

Just like what was mentioned in the Quran verse above. Allah send signs for people who wants to find the truth.

In light of the recent development where Iran is enriching uranium for their purpose of generating electricity. And also the recent fatwa by the Supreme Council in Iran where it states that Weapons of Mass Destruction is HARAAM. I would like to know what other Muslims opinion on this? If...

I have to say Muhammad, peace be upon him, is the greatest prophet of all time. It is a known fact and even non-muslims agree. I don't have to reference this as it is well mentioned in CR. As for those who say that Muhammad, peace be upon him, is not a Prophet, he is both deaf, blind and his...

Well, in my personal opinion it is not hate that was demonstrated, but the will to survive in an unjust environment. As for Iran, it is clearly an act of fear from the west that an Islamic state have a WMD. They fear that it will be used irresponsibly. What about them? The use of dirty bombs...

Pathless, thanks for your in-depth post.Can I assume that the current democracy was none other than capitalistic economic system? Islam has laid down the foundation for mankind to administer this world according to Allah's command. Based on this foundation, I find that democracy is not...

It is fascinating to hear in the news of Western countries tries to propogate democracy in the Muslim world. I am wondering if this is in line with the teaching of Muhammad, peace be upon him, or is it a deception that will eventually lead us away from the straight path. In democracy, their...

Allah has condemned and destroy cities where homosexuality and lesbianism is rampant. It is a grave sin for one to go near fornication. Even more so for homosexuality and lesbianism. Fornication can be overcome with marriage. And Islam regards marriage as the fullfilment of half of the man...

Indeed, you are right. There is no easy path to righteousness. Do we think that Allah will give us paradise so easily? In this world, success comes from hard work. Same too for paradise. How do we get paradise? This is where we differ between religions (ie Christian, Jews etc.), Muslims perform...

If the donor is sincere and truthful in their actions, it may well be a blessing on its own that will eventually put a stop to the violence. We also have to ponder upon ourself, about the media. Is it telling the truth, the whole truth or is it selectively telling thing that it prefer while...

When the Klu Klux Clan was active, they will probably be asking you this question instead, or, even when IRA is terrorising London. What happens today is no different to what happens 10 or 100 or even 1000 years ago. The only difference is the group the extremist belongs to. The fact is there...

Yes, in virtue and conduct. However, there are people whom blatantly said that Muhammad, peace be upon him, is not a true propet because he is rich (in wealth). I just wanted that person to come up and explain why he said that and for what reason? I have read the biography of Muhammad, peac...

I read some post here that claims Muhammad, peace be upon him is rich. I wonder what makes the author to derive to such conclusion. Let discuss this and see if there is any basis or truth to that statement.

In Riyad-as-salihin one of the collection of hadeeth. Hadeeth number 344. A'isha say: The above clearly show Muhammad, peace be upon him, love towards Khadija. There is other narration where Muhammad, peace be upon him, mentioned part of it somewhat like 'Khadija was there beside me in time...

In the name of God most gracious and most merciful. There is a wealth of history regarding the believes of people of Makkah before Muhammad, peace be upon him, given prophethood. The history backdate as far a Prophet Abraham. Abraham sent his wife Hagar with his infant baby, Ismail, peace...

Hi Bandit, In the name of God most gracious most merciful. It is a good question that you ask and I am sure it came after a long thought about Islam. To answer this question, lets me define what constitute a person to be a Muslim. These are mandatory for all Muslims to believe 100% and...

Just to point out brother that having a brown spot on the forehead may not mean someone is devout or religious. This can also be a mean for shaytan to divert them away from the true path. why? naturally if everyone thinks that having a brown spot on the forehead is a sign of piousness, then...

The answer to the above, in my personal opinion is I have none. Allah knows best. For a start Muhammad pbuh has been sent as a prophet for the mercy of all human kind. Islam was revealed as a way of life for all human kind. Allah reward everyone justly. He is the most gracious and most merciful...

Hi all, Mansio -- Historian are human beings like us and they can make mistakes. Quran does not. AS you rightly say verses revealed in Mecca and Madina can exists in the same chapter. That is the beauty of Quran. The arrangement of the ayah (sentences) and surah is unique. Firstly, it is...

Hi all, precisely Hunain... We moved on from one world to another... starting from in the womb (to be simplistic) ... to this earth... into the grave and resurrected in the hereafter to enjoy or suffer the fruit of our labour on earth. In fact GOD purposely make this world in this state...
