I'm Debating with Sunni muslims in a forum
-
Peace,
Below is what I posted from a previous thread
God has made mention of many "good examples" in the Quran, so there is no support here to follow any actions of Muhammad.
Actually, the examples that are really important are already mentioned in the Quran. (see 3927)
4359 - Jesus was a good example
604 - Abraham was a good example
606 - Those who seek God and the last day are a good exampleIn short, all true believers are a good example.
God bless,
dotty

The point of obeying the Messenger was in obeying him when he delegated his first cousin and son in law to the office of Imam. He also named the other eleven Imams by NAME that muslims are to follow.
Sunnis will not tell you this and in fact, many of them do not understand what they follow when they call themselves Sunnis. Basically, the five or six (depending on who you talk to) sects of Sunni Islam are all based on the leadership of those who refused to accept the Messenger's legacy and last will.
Those who do not follow that line of thinking are ALL Shi?. They follow the Ahlul Bayt and you will not find many Sunnis who are either capable or willing to explain this issue to you They will usually pose it to you as a multiple choice question when in fact it is a true or false. Either the first three Caliphs were utterly in violation of the Will of Allah or they weren't. Case closed.
All muslims were told to love Ali abi Taleb (the first Imam) and the problem is...you cannot love hiim and the Ahlul Bayt without loving what he said. What he said was entirely against the first three Caliphs. It was clear and it was harsh.
but it was absolutely true. The Quran backs this up but the Sunnis will not teach you that you are free to read the Quran under these conditions i.e. with particular attention paid to applying the Aya to the Sahaba themselves. The Sunni elevated their forefathers when in fact, their forefathers were foremost in neglect to Allah and the Messenger.
Hope this helps.

Salam Alen.
The sunni guy keep telling me that we need hadtih, because Muhammed has explained Quran through hadith etc..
Do you have any arguments i can use against the claim above?
But isn't abraham an example for us too? and where is the verses that tells us abraham is an example?I was a Sunni, and my way out of Suniism blind faith is due to "fallacy" on their "Shahadah" dogma..
So how do you expect Muhammad Ibnu Abdullah proclaim his Shahada?
"I bear Witness that I am the messenger of God?"
What a useless testimony...And the so-called Shahada can only be found on the Gossip err Hadith..
In case of Abraham, the case could be funnier..
Since Abraham is a muslim and muslim have to proclaim the shahada (or else he/she'll became an infidel)Abraham "should" say
"I bear witness that Muhammad is a messenger of God"
"but err.... who is this Muhammad? I've never met him, so how could I bear witness? I never knew this Muhammad guy! I'll be guilty of false testimony!"Salam

Abraham "should" say
"I bear witness that Muhammad is a messenger of God"
"but err.... who is this Muhammad? I've never met him, so how could I bear witness? I never knew this Muhammad guy! I'll be guilty of false testimony!"thank you ! i feel the exact same way !
;D
or did muhammad say his own name?
what did jesus say?

The Quran says nothing about this ridiculously irrelevant yet centuries old, violent and backwards dispute between two groups of people who spend more time worshipping their heroes from the 6th century than God. It says nothing to support either doctrine and everything to the contrary.
And if I remember correctly, it specifically advises against calling yourselves "shia" rotfl

Salam to all my brothers and sisters
Thanks for all your answears. This helped a lot and i really appreciate it.
I was searching in the internett a week ago and i found a blog-site that has an article
about Prophet Muhammed in The Quran.The sunni guy i am debating with seems really ignorant, he tells me There almost no ayaaat about
Muhammed in the quran, so i wanna show him this article.But there is a problem; I don't remember the name of this internett site/blog. Do any of you got the name of the site?
I know that the brother that is writing this articles in his blog is a Muslim that follows quran alone, and i think he is a member in
free-minds. Do any of you know the name of the site as i mentioned above, or the name of this member?I want to give a link to his page to the sunni's so that they can read about prophet muhammed according to the
verses of Quran onlyPeace and Much love..

I'm debating with these sunnies right now.
I was searching in the internett a week ago and i found a blog-site that has an article
about Prophet Muhammed in The Quranic verses only.The sunni guy tells me There almost no ayaaat about
Muhammed in the quran, so i wanna show him this article.But there is a problem; I don't remember the name of this internett site/blog. Do any of you got the name of the site?
I know that the brother that is writing this articles in his blog is a Muslim that follows quran alone, and i think he is a member in
free-minds. Do any of you know the name of the site as i mentioned above, or the name of this member?I'm repeting this questions one more time, because no one answeared. i need help bro's..
And he also asked me this question; why does God tell in quran that we should obey those among us with autorithy?
by leaders and stuff..do you have any good arguments i can use against this question?
Peace David

And he also asked me this question; why does God tell in quran that we should obey those among us with autorithy?
by leaders and stuff..this is ridiculous the quran never says this ! quiet the contrary!
the quran doesn't even want you to follow your own parents
2170 And if they are told "Follow what God has sent down," they say "No, we will follow what we found our fathers doing!" What if their fathers did not understand anything and were not guided?
5104 And if they are told "Come to what God has sent down, and to the messenger;" they say "We are content with what we found our fathers doing." What if their fathers did not know anything nor were guided?
728 And if they commit evil acts, they say "We found our fathers doing such, and God ordered us to it." Say "God does not order evil! Do you say about God what you do not know?"
770 They said "Have you come to us to serve God alone and abandon what our fathers had served? Bring us what you promise if you are of the truthful ones!"
1240 "What you serve besides Him are nothing but names which you have created you and your fathers, God did not send down any authority for such. The judgment is for none but God. He ordered that none be served but He. That is the true system, but most of the people do not know." (this is prophet joseph)
4322 The fact is, they have said "We found our fathers following a certain way, and we are following in their footsteps."
5323 These are but names that you made up, you and your forefathers. God never authorized such. They only follow conjecture, and personal desire, while the guidance has come to them from their Lord.
the 'followers' in fact blame the leaders on Judgement day
3367 And they will say "Our Lord, we have obeyed our leaders and our learned ones, but they misled us from the path."
ask the people you are debating with if they are on the right path, why will muhammad complain about them on Judgement day
2530 And the messenger said "My Lord, my people have deserted this Qur'an."
the only 'leaders' the quran asks us to obey are the messengers (who are all in the quran) otherwise how am i supposed to obey saleh, lot, abraham, joseph, moses, jesus etc... by following in their footsteps

DArgento is correct.
Verses pertaining to authority
4153
40056
247
459 (the verse your sunni friend cited) - Note the latter portion that states that you should refer matters to the Quran.The only verse I could find about Muhammad mentioning him directly is 3341. The messenger is not important - the message is.

brain (brn)
a. The portion of the vertebrate central nervous system that is enclosed within the cranium, continuous with the spinal cord, and composed of gray matter and white matter. It is the primary center for the regulation and control of bodily activities, receiving and interpreting sensory impulses, and transmitting information to the muscles and body organs. It is also the seat of consciousness, thought, memory, and emotion.
A useful tool. Some blind followers should use it.
