    Peace centi50, The question is..... did all the women cut their hands simultaneously. nope and why did all the women have knives in the first place hmm No, the ladies heard about the encounter between Yusef and his employers wife and was curious as to what provoked such a response by her. So she invited the ladies over to a gathering and had brother Yusef to present himself and when the ladies saw him they swooned because he was so fine (even looked better than the Hawk ;D) and replied colloquially that he must be an angel. The translations in question can be explored by using the tri-lateral roots. God Bless You peace
  • I struggle to do dawah

    Peace Sarah The worst struggle I found is to work on myself with consistency and honesty, i.e finish doing my own dawah on myself.. I easily forget how I should persevere to learn more and submit humbly first to combat many doubts that plant their seeds in my mind daily. Yet I am still failing constantly. Our hardest and more difficult struggle is against our own self mostly. I am only starting to learn how to use GOD s best and strongest weapon-Qoran-.i.e trying to kill my ego is the hardest struggle . I used to think GOD is talking about others when the words of opposition are used in Qoran like- Kafir, blind , dump, stubborn, arrogant...etc.. and all the time GOD was talking to me Have you seen the one whose god is his own ego? Will you be his advocate? أَرَءَيتَ مَنِ اتَّخَذَ إِلٰهَهُ هَوىٰهُ أَفَأَنتَ تَكونُ عَلَيهِ وَكيلًا Do you think that most of them hear, or understand? They are just like animals; no, they are far worse. أَم تَحسَبُ أَنَّ أَكثَرَهُم يَسمَعونَ أَو يَعقِلونَ إِن هُم إِلّا كَالأَنعٰمِ بَل هُم أَضَلُّ سَبيلًا Yes sister here is what I should do first and foremost with me, instead of thinking I am a believer? Therefore, do not obey the disbelievers( myself), and strive against them( yes me) with this ( Qoran), a great striving. فَلا تُطِعِ الكٰفِرينَ وَجٰهِدهُم بِهِ جِهادًا كَبيرًا Sister, I do not know about others, but I am still doing "dawah" for me. May the lord help you with your struggles. GOD bless you. Peace

    Wakas you are correct about what you have said. There is a big difference between rejecting and not believing someone existed.

    Peace, Progressive, what is it that you disagree with the natural republic? May I specifically ask as to what's everyone s opinion on the Prayer part? Thanks Salaam Ervin The book try to say there are 3 Salaat. This part of the book is false. There are 5 Salaat that is supported in the Qur'aan.

    It depends on your motive. If you're looking just to impress people or out of boredom, that'll be in vain. But if you're business-minded and doing it as a means to attract an audience and build a brand, go for it.

    Pharaoh said "You believed in him without my permission? He is your elder who taught you magic. I swear by Allah that I will cut off your hands and your feet crosswise, and I swear by Allah that I will hang you from palm trees. Then you will know which of us will have a more severe and lasting punishment. " Just an off-topic question.. Why do you add "I swear by Allah" in the above verse.. Just for info.. And again relevant to topic, I should remind the audience that even look at King pharoa statement... He first put them behind bars restricting their physical movement then crucify them... That's perfect when it comes to a king like pharou... Cruel and unjust.. But when it comes to the Lord of all races, Allah that doesn't befit... So it is clear hands and legs not cut here.. But king pharoa first imprison them and as usual crucify such people later.. You need hands and legs to crucify fir that matter.. Lol.

    Mongols? I think they followed Tengri too. Not all "Mongolian" of course, we do not want to fall into the trap of "stereo typing" aren't we? I'm referring specifically to "13th century Mongolian Empire", which was founded by Temujin / Genghis Khan. Within the same era; the mentioned caliphates worshipped "Allah" yet they war, hate and bickered against each others. Their brutality is pretty much at the same level as Temujin's Mongolian Empire. And such is the situation wherein Rumi was born into.

    Salam brother jkhan! You can change "answer me" to just "answer" or to "answer them", it is up to you. Coming to the actual topic, I see that in Quran Allah demands solid/material proof from people who claim anything but in case of the prophet, He just asks/commands the prophet to "Say/Tell/Answer" them without ordering him to "show/present" them the WRITTEN BOOK or solid evidence. If there existed a WRITTEN BOOK with the propthet then it must have been explicitly mentioned in Quran. This is my major point and hope you can understand this simple point! Peace!

    Salam... Most of you raised concern has not got what Ibadat means in the first place, so perhaps you will realize the issue of slave... First and foremost word (abd) in Quran occurs in chapter one... IyyaKa na'budu... It continues... Just realize it and remember verse 5156 in connection with this... So chapter one it says We serve You and we seek help in You .. And then says guide us to the path of straight ... Now get the grip.. This Siratha musthaqeem is what need to practice and that is Ibadat when applied in action... So men and jinn are created except to serve Him as 5156 stated... Jin here is all malaika Satan and all normal Jinns.. They all are Jinns created fire based though their status are different as Malika satan etc.. Siratha musthaqeem = Ibadat... When? So following the path of straight is serving the Lord.. If following any other path then deviating from serving/.ibadath though Ibadat is done but not in line with Siratha musthaqeem... Thank you.. Peace... If anyone still thinks merely word Ibadi is someone who is good then carefully read verses 7128 and 1963 ... Inheritance God may give to anyone in this world so Allah said simply un 7128 ..." ... Whome he wills of His servers.... " it means everyone is Ibadi and Allah gives as He wills... But in the hereafter inheritenxe is only to those who became thoroughly concious (Muttaqeen) ... Similarly 1963 Allah says He bestows the Janna to His Ibadi / Servers who were concious... So everyone is Ibadi but not concious except few... Just reflect independently... Allah could have said simply I give Janna to His Ibadi if in fact all Ibadi are on the positive side...

    I recently tried https//cbdforlife.us/products/cbd-face-cream for the principal time and I be compelled venture, I'm impressed with the results. I felt more composed and at nonchalance, and my apprehension was significantly reduced. The gummies tasted spacious and were undisturbed to consume. I'll decidedly be using them again and would persuade them to anyone looking an eye to a natural retreat to alleviate grief and anxiety.

    4120 He promises them and fills them with fancies, but there is nothing Satan promises them except delusion. Is there any truthful factor in the above verse.. Satan has no truth what so ever. No mixture of truth and falsehood but mere deception ie falsehood.. So what else one who follows Satan, would promise to others except what his master(iblees) does.. So as a follower of Satan he keeps tempting others with his fancy words speculations .. Keep it up.. Coz you love it.. Fortify your satanic community... You are not cruel.. I do agree... Coz Satan is not cruel, but intelligent deceiver.. But you deluded as rightly said by our Lord.. What is the point of living in deception? That's the worst life ever..

    I researched and came to conclusion that 46 is more manifest when we replace the word Alnikah (marriage) with its real meaning of the age / state of emancipation (liberate from shackles of one's custody to society as a free person).. If that befit then we can definitely look into the verse of 43 whether it says to marry two or three or four? CoZ marriage is never with FEAR... according to 46 judge well whether the person is matured enough to be liberated to live on their own.. Age is immaterial perhaps.. And perhaps he might not know exact age of such.. But maturity and understanding and the ability to live on their own is the point to consider.. So.. I do extremely believe that verse 46 is all about emancipation and give their due properties in their name.. And you are free and they are liberated.. In addition to that verse 46 never stated release the property and marry them off.. But it only says release the property and have Witness for doing that.. Perfect.. But when it comes to 43 if you fear probably mean that you can't just set free all at once. Just do one at a time .. Further I checked the synonyms of nikah and perfectly matched for emancipation.. Any comments Note but marriage is different and marrying more than one is pretty obviously no harm.

    Thanks for replying but you did not answer what I asked, nor do I understand much of what you said. Each to their own. It's Okay... It's not within my capacity to ensure whether others understood or not.. I remember the verse 1191 for whatever reason. O Shoaib! We don't understand much of what you say.... Thank you for conversation...

    Salam wakas, I am confused with this statement "You shall marry them with the permission of their parents, and give them their dowries in kindness - to be independent - " Fro my understanding, i take this to mean that having lovers is not allowed just like illisit sex What is your understanding God bless Salam... https//free-minds.org/forum/index.php?topic=9612134.msg440188#msg440188 Read the link.. I mean you own topic and we discussed but you again open a new topic totally neglecting or forgetting.. Anyway... Just go with flow of the verse... Meanwhile 55 is not identical to verse 425... In a nutshell 425 is talking about vulnerable women who are attracted with Fahisha and even after marrying not afraid to keep SECRET LOVERS...from such women God advice to be conscious before marriage.. Choose wisely.... But 55 is talking about the. As intention of men since God has allowed marriage with people of book and one may intend to marry for fun for sex and throw.. Or keep them as SECRET LOVERS. . Here intention matters.. So.. NO SECRET LOVERS... just lovers.. Let everyone know he or she your lover.. I don't mean to say go and tell everyone.. Just don't hide your life. If one has a lover just marry when time comes.. Is having a lover a secret thing? There is no secret in and among lovers... They are not doing anything wrong as long as they don't do anything what married couple can only do.. But what is secret in fact what is wrong... If I have wife and if I have another relation as lover or beyond it then it is SECRET and cheating... Doing something others should not see and if seen then you are exposed as fahisha type of person. Those who have no wife and having a lover is not secret at all.. If you still not getting. Then bed to God to guide you.. In sha Allah He will... But don't leave your girl friend if you have one.. elektro.. God is so natural.

    Salam One if my friends say.. I am following Quran alone and trying to follow Quran alone... One of websites or rather YouTube quran alone said 4381 Abideen means disobey.. It means "If God has a son, I am the first to DISOBEY " Well I respect your Quran alone believers.. I am sure they are guided.. But sometimes we err not knowingly... They must have taken it wrong... I am wrong to say against them... The reason I presume they say Abideen / disobey is perhaps propelled by Abideen verses... Coz it is positive and negative... Sincere and insincere.. Everyone is abd of Allah.. But sincere and insincere /disobey.. So they might have said it . Abideen is never a direct word to say DISOBEY. .but obey /fillow path / ie serve.. What they do mat be positive or negative .. So.. 4381 in fact says if Allah has a son I am the first to SERVE... logically ask.. Why would one disobey if Allah has a son? You think Allahs son would be weaker? No.. If Allah has a son then Allah and son same... Then God is not one but Two ...but God has taught us God is One . If God has taught us God is TWO (God and His God Son) then why to disobey... How can we disobey the son of God while he is son of God? No way... But He doesn't have a son and no one can prove He has son.. Just speculation... But if He has of course Obey...

    Peace.. gl.. I get you and your feelings in every word and your willingness to see this world be in good shape free of violence free of injustice free of oppression... Etc etc.. But... Unfortunately... It's too much... Like Prophet Lut said he is helpless... But always warned and talked against their actions... Yes brother.. You can always talk against those who doing injustice if your speach is allowed in a country where you live... In countries like I live even we can't talk against injustice and government actions and Only place is jail... But as a human yout environment you live you can always talk agaisnt injustice if required and if able take action alone if possible or together if possible... Suppose you are going in public train or public bus and you notice an injustice agaisnt a girl... Why to be be silent first let him know what he is doing is wrong. .if violence he approach then if possible let people know what he did. We can do things within our capacity... But er are not living in a community or nation where true believers are surrounded and the power is in the hands of true believes like of Prophet Mohamed.. So they can take actions eith justice... See for example how difficult it was for Prophet Musa. .helpless and afraid but had always the support of God in direct communication... We can't compare that with our lives... Oppression were there for ages but somehow they week delivered with mercy of God after ages.. Yes you can talk perhaps at least one or two who listens may reflect... But we can't change the world... Or even our country... Then bloodshed ... God created hell fire with intent... malaika spoken the truth of our own nature bloodshed... But God knows what we all don't know... Relax brother.. You are not doing any harm to world by not stopping anything what is happening around the world... Unless you directly involve and support in such organizatioons... We can't go against the law and order of a nation and outcome is worst... Even the law and order is againar our hearts... And remember though we want a change many don't want a change and they like as it is. So... It is complicated. Live as you live... As long as Iblees and crew around the majority will falter... So. Destiny is written.. Word of God will effect... Thank you..
