    Yes, so it is utterly silly when people reject and ridicule eachother's Gods. We don't have different Gods. We only have different images of God. God is God despite what we fabricate. Words are important.

    actually i have a live experience in my life... there was a perosn in remote areas of village in south asia. he claims to the people he know a lot of things... interestingly he prove his cliams by different tactics... my frd car was stolen and he want to ask who steal it? at first without asking anything from us,, he write down something in the paper and he told my frd to open it ? a shock happen when he already write the model make and color of car which was stolen even the time and day ? without asking the single thing from us why we are visiting him... he ask some money to locate the where the car is right now .... and once i went with him another time with two of my father sisters and they are not only sisters but also their kids get married with each other ... the first question the person ask from my father sisters whats your relation with each other,, they replied we are sisters... then he say there is another relation indeed ... and they both get confused... he claim he have some jinss/mokeel captured by him and they told him information... interestingly he was famous for revealing the name of person who steal things and most of the times people get their things recovered... even once police caught him and was asking about a robbery at first he did not tell them then police start beating him up rotfl and he told them the exact thing...

    Well, I do recognize Quran to be the word of God, but I do not recognize its usually accompanying interpretation. A prophet is called a prophet because they know things. They can know information about what is to come to pass in another time as well as write that down. The one who wrote Quran got to know a bit of this and that. But a man still in the flesh is prevented in much from knowing the future because they roam separated from their Originator (God), however since an insightful man (prophet) can see through a cleft into the other realm he knows things others do not.

    According to lexical data it means cover, but also refers to make-up and change from a condition to another. It would not refer to headdress on its own because the word does not have that wide a meaning. The clothes you wear to dress up is likely kha-me-ra by definition. I would doubt the word refers to veiling of the body but rather what you have equipped on your body, be it make-up or a gown. It seems also the consumption of intoxicating drugs is kha-me-ra so it is likely that it speaks of the affection of changing the condition in a person, make-over. Alcohol "dresses" you in a special way. One definition also says "come upon unexpectedly" so it might reinforce that it would mean "the impression" it gives to others when they behold you.

    peace all, salat is a connection/following/contact with/of our Lord, this is something we should strive to remain in, not just to do once or twice, or 5 or ten times a day. all our rites are there to teach us, and they are examples, Allh does not need our worship, but we need to remember Him. Example, the children of Israel, their rites, and temples etc. there is so many symbols for us to learn from through them, same as the rites in the quran, for each people, and each time / stage of humanities development, God has instituted rites to follow, theese are examples for us to learn from ... i.e 'why do they not reflect upon the quran' 'in this is a lesson for those who reflect' Allh does not institute meaningless rites on us, and while the first and foremost test is obedience, and whether or not we obey Him, there is also a inner esoteric sense to everything in the quran, and indeed life, this es-sense is what we should focus on as we obey the clear commands in the quran. peace be with you peace

    Everything is ultimately from God, so all is from Him, but we need to take responsibility of the bad that befalls on us instead of finding fault on others, that way we accept his guidance, in the process we find peace with Him, i think this to be an important aspect in Belief of God. exactly brother... handshake the result of every free will action is in the control/authority of God... positive and negetive both...

    Peace Imran. If anything, Qoran seems to indicate that Jinns were created before the humans after the classification. " Wa Al jAnna( Jinn) Khalknahu min kablu( before) min naar..." My understanding. GOD bless you. Peace. peace be with you i would indeed research what Q-B-L is (dont forget thats a qoph not a kaph) here we are boxing ourselves into a linear time line based orientation like it means 'previously' but i would seek a better definition of exactly what is means. peace be with you

    Peace be with you, start a revolution within your own heart, if one wishes to follow the 'the proclaimation alone', then let him follow it, and abandon all doctrines of men, and turn towards the one who Proclaimed, and who spoke through many prophets, and sent many messengers, let us believe in Him and live by His creed, that; there is not a god except Him i would recommend that you carefully study the quran, seeking guidance and knowledge from the One alone, and forsaking other interpretations or translations, and others opinions, including my own, and seek Gods alone. Then, when God grants us the book, and the understanding of it, Then we can share it with others with true understanding of it. if you have trusted in God though, and achieved the Correction, then none of what you achieve will be put to waste it is a long path, one we must be vigilant while travelling, and be carefull only to speak the truth, and not hasten in things that we do not understand, as in my experience this leads to regret, and error, though God is most Merciful and Forgiving, and He is the Kind, The Pardoning. trust in God, and His messengers, and keep up the good work, be strong and strive hard, the reward of God is supreme, for those who do. peace be with you Praise be to Him

    Peace Socrates, So it appears many stories in old scriptures tell of the Anunnaki, that were as gods to the men living in the time they ruled the Earth out in the open. But modern ideas about these aliens/gods have bunched them all together into a single entity; this obviously makes no sense and leaves people with knowledge scratching their heads, for mainstream biblical scholar suggest "Elohim" refers to God though it is a plural form. What gives? The answer is that some of the Anunnaki were nice people and some not so nice; some supported and loved mankind and others hated and tried to exterminate us. When you throw all those stories and characters together in one single entity, that entity appears capricious, even schizophrenic. Some Anunnaki would then clearly be distinguished as "gods not to follow", like Baal, whereas "the Lord" do, say and feel things that are all over the board. The story of Gilgamesh is one great example of all this; this is a story that predates the Bible by millennia but made it into the Old Testament. The hero of the Sumerian flood epic, Ziusudra is the Noah mentioned in the Bible. Regarding the above post especially, i believe that the Anunnaki have no foreskins and that they told their servants to cut theirs off so when they wished to copulate with women all males would look similar. So that would make the whole foreskin issue into a big deal, politically as well as culturally. bravo bravo bravo Peace
