    U
    I certainly don?t want a discussion where we just go round in circles. Any way back to the topic. I remember last year when I asked submission.org if there are any ?God Alone? mosques in the UK and the guy emailed me with about 6, however I lost the e-mail. But a few months ago I asked submitters.org.uk which is in co-operation with submission.org they said there aint any in the UK. ??? Either those at submission.org got it wrong or they did not give the UK submitter team proper training. I don?t see the point in submitters.org.uk everything (with the exception of 2 or 3 articles) is copied and pasted from submission.org or directly links it to submission.org Peace, Sugar

    peace, Answer to 7 we all know From the book, "TWO ISLAMS" 1949 by Faazil Deeniyaat, Ghulam Jeelani Barq "While the Sahaba Kiram had been burning collections of Ahadith, how did our Muhaddithin encounter millions of Ahadith? Bukhari found 600,000 plus. The chain of narration contains 5-6 persons. How could he investigate 3.5 million narrators 99.9% of whom were dead and buried? And Yahya bin Moin had 1.4 million Ahadith! One doesn?t need to be a rocket scientist to gauge the chaos, forgery and fraud. Allama Muhammad Tahir Gujrati, in his famous book ?Qanoon Al-Akhbaril Maudhu?ah War Rijalud Dhu?fa? has collected the names of nearly 2,000 men who spent their lives in forging Ahadith. If one forged 1,000 the other manufactured 10.000. Maulana Ubaidullah Sindhi said, ?I cannot tell in public why I cannot teach Bukhari to a European convert.? Do not think that that only non-Muslims used to commit this crime. Numerous men like Ibn Abi Yahya in Madina, Alwaqidi in Baghdad and Maqatil bin Sulaiman in Khurasan, being on high posts such as provincial chief justices, were very much involved in this ?noble? assault on the Qur?an. Allama Ibn Jozi has compiled a long list of many ?revered Imams? of Islam participating in this deplorable assault. (Tazkarah Maudhu?aat by Allama Muhammad Tahir, pgs 9 on) " Imam Muhammad bin Ishaq (famous for writing the first biography of the exalted prophet) said Imam Maalik is a liar. (Jaame? Mukhtasir pg 19 Imam Maalik said Imam Muhammad bin Ishaq is DAJJAL. (Jaame? pg 19 Imam A?mash said to Imam Abu Hanifah I can?t stand you in your own home. (Pg 199) Imam Abu Hanifah said Imam Jabir Al-Ja?fi is a great forger. Imam Abu Hanifah said Imam A?mash neither observes Saum nor does he take the post-coital bath. (Pg 199) Imam Saeed bin Musaib and Imam Hasan Basari called Hazrat ?Ikramah a liar and ?Ikramah said the same about those two. (Pgg 197-19 Imam Qatadah considered Imam Yahya bin Katheer a fabricator and the latter thought the same of the former. (Pg 199) Imam Saleh Al-Marri said Imam Hammad is a big liar. (Fathul Mulhim pg 13 Imam Yazeed bin Haroon said Imam Ziyad bin Maimoon keeps changing the chains of narration. (Fathul pg 139) Imam ?Ubaidullah bin Ma?az said Write nothing from Qazi Abi Shaibah (Fath pg 13 Imam Abu Ja?far Al-Hashmi said Imam ?Umro bin ?Ubaid is a liar. (Fath pg 137) The first ever man to collect the names and details of (5 million!) narrators was Imam Yahya bin Mo?een. Imam Shaafi?i said He is absolutely unreliable. (Kitab fi Dhu?fa, Jaame? Mukhtasir pg 201) If Bukhari really was so carefull and that only small mistakes ended up in his books, how then can you explain this? Hazrat Ayesha narrated that the prophet (S) used to kiss his wives and had intercourse with them while he was observing Saum (Abstinence). (Bukhari pg 226, vol 1) Muhaddith Abu Daud was not to be left behind. Hazrat Ayesha said, ?The prophet used to kiss me and suck on my tongue while he was fasting.? Hazrat Ayesha was sitting at her home in Aisha bint Talhah?s company when her husband Abdullah came in and he was fasting. Hazrat Ayesha said to Abdullah, ?What is holding you back from embracing, kissing, riding and playing with your wife even though you are fasting?? (Muwatta Maalik pg 89) Ayesha said, ?When Rasoolullah desired to have intercourse with me while I menstruated, he would order me to tie a piece of cloth around my waist.? (Bukhari, The Book of Menstruation124)" no offense. but "bunch of idiots". who? you answer if you truely know god and the quran. ahora, comprendes tu sennor virtualeye porque yo no acceptir ahadith? (translation do you understand now why i reject EVERY hadith, mr. virtualeye). why don't you look at surah fil/feel according to the quran. isn't the quran alone enough? if you still say, the hadith explains the quran better than the quran explains itself, then aren't you saying those "bunch of idiots" explain the quran better than allah? i know what you are going to say! you will say, nauzubillah. surely, reject all hadith except the best hadith, the quran. know what is important for you to live by acoording to the quran.surely, it contains no contradictoin or 'nonsense'. what was the purpose for you to ask this question. do you question the authenticity of the quran? or do you simply ask whether this "bombing of the elephants" happened in history or not. to answer this question, one must look upon why is it in the "fully deailed quran"? god punishes the igorant SPIRITULLY... it serves its purpose why those band of elephant riders were punished... because they turned away/rejected GOD WHILE KNOWING...perhaps there is something to be learned from the quran and its message and why is it important. so review your question (the purpose). peace, rifat

    OF COURSE THE BIBLE PREACHES GOD ALONE. IT STILL STANDS OUT AMID ITS CORRUPTION. IT IS THE CHRISTIANS WHO CANNOT SHAKE OFF THAT BELIEF IN THE DEITY OF JESUS AND THE TRINITY. Isa 4521 Declare ye, and bring it forth; yea, let them take counsel together who hath showed this from ancient time? who hath declared it of old? have not I, Jehovah? and there is no God else besides me, a just God and a Saviour; there is none besides me. Isa 446 Thus saith Jehovah, the King of Israel, and his Redeemer, Jehovah of hosts I am the first, and I am the last; and besides me there is no God. Isa 448 Fear ye not, neither be afraid have I not declared unto thee of old, and showed it? and ye are my witnesses. Is there a God besides me? yea, there is no Rock; I know not any. Isa 455 I am Jehovah, and there is none else; besides me there is no God. I will gird thee, though thou hast not known me; Too many references in the bible about God alone.

    peace sugar i have the same dillemma as you. I still read Rashad's translation knowing it has many errors, I just like the simple English (like you) But I always use logic and compare different translations to make sure this or that verse is translated correctly. The exercise I use is ignore all the footnotes, and ignore anything in parentheses unless it coincides with the context of the verse, to my understanding. I really wish people would just translate the Quran, and not put anything in the parentheses.

    Peace sis, Quote I heard that they do that because they cannot comprehend God so they portray him in many forms as ?mini God?s? and worship them but they believe that all worship given to those ?mini God?s? are directly at the one supreme God who they cannot comprehend. But I have also heard that most of them believe that God manifests into many forms. What they do is called attribute worship. They focus on certain attributes of God. But that is the same as only talking to your hand. Also they have made all stories where those gods fight each other, marry each other, cheat each other, lie to each other, fall a sleep. All having human feelings and behaviour. This excuse of that it is still God, is used everywhere on earth to hide their idolatry. Quote A Christian guy told me that just because their God is three things that still means he is ONE. He told me that water can come in three form; ice, evaporation/clouds and plain water but at the end of the day it?s still the same thing. The water theory makes sense but when I asked him how could Jesus be God and Son of God at the same time he could not give me a logical answer other then the water theory. Again excuses for a dogma not found in the Bible, and certainly not in Jesus his words. You have to understand people have to make up illusions and excuses to hide their idolatry for themselves. Next time ask him how come the trinity only became main doctrine after 325? How come there is not a record to be found on this? They can only find words from people who saw Jesus as their king and intercessor, which is also wrong, but at least they didn't preach a trinity. Also now through the dead sea scrolls we understand why the language in the gospels is used, but that is a long story. But just give the next triniterian this Mat 1916 And, behold,one came and said unto him,Good Master,what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? Mat 1917 Andhe said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God. Quote I was always crap at science so can you please explain what that means? And what?s ?Akasha field?? The same as the Quantum field or zero point field. Here maybe this helps a little bit http//twm.co.nz/zpf_haisch.htm http//groups.yahoo.com/group/indigochildren2/message/2568 http//www.abarim-publications.com/QuantumMechanicsIntroduction.html Peace

    Plus it is all based on Quran alone, not on hearsay reports written 200 years later.......... We don't except any source outside of the Quran, as the Quran explains itself and is completly detailed. We only have to read history and science to widen our view and understanding. But we know that this information has to be proven, and not based on wishfull thinking some guys were objective in their compiling, as they were certainly not. There is a whole prayer to be found inside the Quran, detailed from A to Z. We only still are discussing some details based on language issues, not based on personal wishes as you try to claim. Peace Can you please expalin the Surah Fil/Feel from quran, without using any ouside resource?

    Peace be upon you, Ancient philosophy speaks of the Seven Energies represented by the seven closet planetary objects, Sun 2) Moon 3) Mercury 4) Venus 5) Mars 6) Jupiter 7) Saturn These are also the same planets that the 7 days of the week are named after (i.e. Sun-day, Moon-day, saturn-day) There are positive and negative aspects of each energy, giving us a duality for each, therefore we read... (1587) And We have given/brought you seven from the doubles and the great proclamation/reading. These energies (controllers) repeatedly effect our physical vehicles (body, thoughts, emotions) to help us learn the lessons of the earthly journey. The Wise man learns to command the energies, not be commanded by them, but as with all things one needs practice, and how else can one practice except through REPITITION ;D

    Peace, This concept was taken from the hadith, and has no origin in the Quran, as it clearly says people are unaware when they are dead. plus, if not mentioned in the Quran, then it will not be part of our judgement. Nor are the living and the dead; GOD causes whomever He wills to hear. You cannot make hearers out of those in the GRAVEs. They will say, "We have been recreated from the GRAVE! If they were to be punished they wouldn't be so surprised, as all stories show they know why they are punishes when they are in the grave. 3651 And when the Trumpet is blown, behold, out of their disintegrated states unto their Lord they will run. (?Ajdaath? = Bodily remains = Graves = Disintegrated states). 3652 They will exclaim, ?Oh, woe unto us! Who has awakened us from our beds of sleep? This is what the Beneficent promised, and the Messengers spoke the truth.? ('Marqad' = Bed of sleep = Resting place. The concept of punishment in the grave is non-Qur?anic and, hence, wrong). 3653 Nothing but a single Blast, no more, and behold, before Us all of them will be presented. 3654 ?This Day no person will face the least injustice, nor will you be rewarded other than what you had been doing." The Day of Judgment comes before reward & punishment in the Hereafter. Doctor Saheb has given the best example of 3651 and 3652, which nagates the theory of Azabul Qabr. If you look in the Quran, you will find the following words, relating to Azaab, repeated several times AZAABO JAHANNAM (676) AZAABUN NAAR (2201) AZAABUN ALEEM (594) AZAABUN MUHEEN (2257) AZAABUN SHADEED (4216) AZAABUN AZEEM (3105) AZAABUN MUQEEM (1139) AZAAAN GHALEEZ (4150) AZAABIL SAEER (3121) AZAABUL HAREEQ (850) AZAABAN KABEERA (2519) ASHADDAL AZAAB (4046) However, you will not find the word ?AZAABUL QABR? in the Quran. Also there are several verses, which describe human life circle as birth, life, death, grave, rise again and day of judgment. No in between ?Azabul Qabr?. Here are two more examples in 2055 and 2315 & 16. Wassalam.

    Salam I think nearlly all questions can be short and can easily have a short/concise answer. The difficulity is not in writing too much, but writing short and concise replies. I think sometimes people get too excited, and others have too much to share, and hence they start writing like they are talking/chating! Please remember that this is for everyone to express and takein the information. So please make questions/answers as short/concise as possible. Peace

    simple wrote just to share something - check out/try in any of the ayah's where the word Almasjid Alharam accurs the following please " Undertaking / doing/ carrying out , of the forbidden or of the Haraam" And you said "makan is a place...bayt is a place....even if u take mars as the place/makan for ur carnivals 'do not associate' is not a place....'mars' is not 'do not assocate'....empirical failure..so the makana cannot be 'do not associate with me'......no wonder u are so lost! -)" To understand what is makaan according to its usage in the quran check out the following http//www.free-minds.org/forum/index.php?topic=4400.0 hi! i have already talked about this.....still to brief u about it it is 'likeness makana likeness in the very least u have to have 2 similar ideas if not entities ayatan makana ayatin...evil makana good...get the drift? the annual fair u are talkin about needs a place....be it in jerusalem or in las vegas or on this forum a place! 'do not associate with me' is not a place! words and ideas should be in harmony u can very well say 'let us live in harmony' but u will still need to live in a physical place! u cannot live at a location called 'harmony'....but u can live at a physical place and live in a state of harmony in it! same is the case with 2226 monotheism is not a location...it is a state (not as in u s of a)...a belief! and like i asked why leave out the rest of the verse (..and purify my house for the attaifeen and alqaimeen and arrukuussujud) from ur proposed location? anyway i have to leave...for an indefinite term.....maybe later...till then...-)

    Peace Awalam yanthuroo fee malakooti alssamawati waal-ardi wama khalaqa Allahu min shay-in waan AAasa an yakoona qadi iqtaraba ajaluhum fabi-ayyi hadeethin baAAdahu yu/minoona Have they not looked at the dominion of the heavens and the earth, and all the things GOD has created? Does it ever occur to them that the end of their life may be near? Which Hadith, beside this, do they believe in? Wamina alnnasi man yashtaree lahwa alhadeethi liyudilla AAan sabeeli Allahi bighayri AAilmin wayattakhithaha huzuwan ola-ika lahum AAathabun muheenun Among the people, there are those who uphold baseless Hadith, and thus divert others from the path of GOD without knowledge, and take it in vain. These have incurred a shameful retribution. Allahu nazzala ahsana alhadeethi kitaban mutashabihan mathaniya taqshaAAirru minhu juloodu allatheena yakhshawna rabbahum thumma taleenu julooduhum waquloobuhum ila thikri Allahi thalika huda Allahi yahdee bihi man yashao waman yudlili Allahu fama lahu min hadin GOD has revealed herein the best Hadith; a book that is consistent, and points out both ways (to Heaven and Hell). The skins of those who reverence their Lord cringe therefrom, then their skins and their hearts soften up for GOD's message. Such is GOD's guidance; He bestows it upon whoever wills (to be guided). As for those sent astray by GOD, nothing can guide them. Tilka ayatu Allahi natlooha AAalayka bialhaqqi fabi-ayyi hadeethin baAAda Allahi waayatihi yu/minoona These are GOD's revelations that we recite to you truthfully. In which Hadith other than GOD and His revelations do they believe? Peace. peace wonderfully put. That alone in itself speaks volumes.

    Peace be upon you Neo, Can someone give me the verse in the Qur'an where it states that there are certain parts of Qur'an which are literate and certain parts that are metaphoric? You will not find such a verse. The verse that is incorrectly alluded to is 37 which speaks of "al kitaab" (universal law) , not "al quran" (the proclamation/reading). They are not the same thing.

    Peace, I read through the link and to some follow-up pages...This is no different from the jiberish found in the Jewish Torah today...I say jibberish because if you read on it goes on to say how Lot slept with his daughters, how Abraham (who was not scared of being thrown in the fire) was scared from Pharoah and told his wife to pretend she was his sister so he would not be killed...How Abraham abondons Hajar in the wilderness because of the jeolosy of Sarah...How Abraham is circumcised at age 80, etc.. Peace all the above is also what the sunni believe, i guess they picked it up from the jews What is not verified by the Quran is not from the original Injeel/Torah...That is the rule of thumb I would use. Exactly
