    Dear, I hate to sweat. If the question involved one or two verses, then it wouldn't be a problem. There are too many verses involved to make a lengthy post unless necessary. I'd suggest you search and collect all verses pertaining to "parents" and see if you can make any heads and tails of it. Besides, it will give you a chance to actually read the "Great Reading".

    yes research is very difficult for "Quranists".
    They hide the verses arabic text so that they can extract the meaning of their liking and people should believe blindly.
    Sorry I do not follow this style .I believe in Facts not on hearsay.

      Salaam all,

      Here is the Aya and the showing of the singular and plural yous

      1723 Thy (singular) Lord hath decreed, that ye (plural) worship none save Him, and (that ye (plural) show) kindness to parents. If one of them or both of them to attain old age with thee, say (singular) not "Fie" unto them nor repulse (singular) them, but speak (singular) unto them a gracious word.

      The first singular addresses the messenger.

      The plurals that came just after address all.

      The second singulars address the generic human because it came after the plural. Why? because the plural set the stage that the addressing is to all and not only the messenger. Why did it address the singular at the end? because it makes for a stronger address as in talking to each one of us directly.

      Take care all.

      Hussein

          You might be having some tampered version of Quran from a Quranist.

              You go through posts and verify how many of them contain arabic text of Quran .
              They either give
              -Reference
              -Transliteration
              -Translation (tampered usually)
              They hide actual text .Why ?

                But the history and the narrations these guys so stoically adhere to is completely devoid of any mathematics or science. Maybe hadeeth guys can invent their own math code to verify hadeeth.

                  You go through posts and verify how many of them are English, and more importantly, how many of them are on the "internet", an international network now used by civillians to spread information, originally invented by the Kuffar West while Holy Blessed Muslims (PBUH) were pre-occupied with the importance of beard trimmings and the "creationism" debate (as in whether the Quran was created or not).

                  As long as there is a reference to the Quranic verses, there is absolutely no justification for your own laziness.

                    I agree
                    The quranic verses should be copy pasted in the post.People who do not do this ,in fact are showing laziness.
                    Please my dear friend.
                    Why do you bring traditionalists in? I am also against them.
                    I have not been to understand ,I do not mention hadeeths,you people drag them in.Have I ever supported any traditionalist?
                    Please in future be nice to me by not mentioning them.
                    I dislike any person who tries to
                    -Tamper the Quran
                    -Tamper the teachings of the Holy Prophet
                    So simple.

                      So simple.

                      Yes, clearly so. As for the verses, a lot of the time the entire post is riddled with references, and it would take far, far more time to post each reference than for the reader to simply open their Quran to the page and read. I wonder if you ask for this on IRC channels

                      Why do you bring traditionalists in? I am also against them.

                      Dear, I have never brought in traditionalists. I have only pointed out that Holy Blessed Muslims (RA) have spent more time in the 9th century than in the 21st. And people say time travel is impossible.

                      I dislike any person who tries to
                      -Tamper the Quran
                      -Tamper the teachings of the Holy Prophet

                      I also go further and dislike

                      • Anyone who fails to acknowledge their mistakes and causes diversionary arguments
                      • Any hypocrite who asks others for reference but does not bring his own
                      • Anyone who refers to a human being as "Holy"

                      So simple.

                        So the word "Holy" in the "Holy prophet" phrase stings you.
                        Is it really so painful.? I am sorry I did not know.
                        But what can I do .At least He is our Holy Prophet.
                        Can you show me any Prohibition of using word Holy in the Holy Quran?? Go for another tampering.
                        So any talk about the Holy Prophet must be very painful for you.
                        Do you need some doctor if problem is sever ?

                          I advise you to open up an English dictionary and find "holy" in it. You may be surprised...

                          Please remember that Jesus is the "Holy Son of God" according to Nazarenes.

                          So, I do not need a doctor, but you need to add a dictionary of English to that extensive shopping list.

                          Also, there is no question of a "Holy Prophet" unless you are referring to Abraham.

                                  Salam all,

                                  Please have a look at this verse 4615.
                                  (Notice that it covers the same subject as 1723)

                                  Samia, I am not saying that the command is for the prophet alone and not relevant to us. BIG NO!. I am questioning the ahlul hadith here why they suddenly exclude the prophet in the singular "you" in verse 1723. The prophet was the first to receive the revelations so why suddenly he is being excluded? If the reason is because by not excluding the prophet, quran will contradict hadiths then that is really biased approach to quran. We should read quran first and then read hadiths in light of quran and NOT the other way around (read hadiths first and try to interpret quran in such a way to fit hadiths).

                                    Of course that's not what I meant. It seems that sometimes I remember people's posts more than they do ;D. I was referring to this

                                    And then at the age of forty, he became the prophet after receiving the revelations for the first time. And ever since the prophet received revelations, he taught it to the people until he died at the age of around sixty.

                                    That is from my memory. And if you want references, there are many out there such as
                                    http//www.cyberistan.org/islamic/muhammad.html

                                    That's why I was confused ( confused) at Leoxyz's comment to that post (which seems now you shared the same understanding with him), which I found off point; but that was Leoxyz.

                                      Peace hlatif and everyone,

                                      Since you all use logic in understanding the Qur'an, then how come you cannot agree on anything related to the simplest Qur'anic statements of Salat HAJJ and so on. True logic does not lead to disunity. It leads to unity. What you got then is poor understanding or poor logic or both.

                                      It seems that most of those who can't agree on anything are new members in FM. On the other hand, it seems that most of those who are long term members agree on many things.

                                      Perhaps the reason why many new members can't agree on much is because they have little knowledge regarding the teachings of the Quran. There is a quote by Bruce Lee which goes like this

                                      "Put every great teacher together in a room, and they'd agree about everything; put their disciples in there and they'd argue about everything."

                                        Great quote.

                                        As to the gist of this thread, I must say also that I can't see anything wrong with not agreeing on everything or even inmany things. Of it is something that each person can do or think without opressing others, what is the problem? I can't see the problem. Disagreement is a fact of life and the source of much thought. It is quarrelsomeness that is a problem not respectful disagreement.

                                        And disagreement is by far much bettr than imposition and forcing things on people who cannot see their point and find them objectionable.

                                        In fact going by our friend Bruce Lee quote there is nothing wrong with puils disagreeing provided they know and acknowledge that they are just pupils, not masters.

                                        An in front of God we are all pupils.

                                        Salaam

                                          Salam all, I have been doubtful about the life of Prophet Muhammad when he received the revelation and faced his companions if his companions asked him to make clear about the verses. I believed that there were companions couldn't understand clearly about some verses and needed the Prophet explain it it. However, in my point of view, I think that the prophet should explain to them, and would be model, and performed among companions. Later on the practice of the Prophet was told to many companions so called Prophetic tradition. Wallahu'alum, Allah has known best.
