My current understanding is that "al-masjid al-haraam" as used in al-qur'aan means "the inviolable institution of obedience". Please substitute this meaning for my older and incorrect understanding of "institution of hearing and obeying the forbidden" in the above referenced article.

Peace be upon you all,
God most certainly is the focus, however there is no proper IMAGE of "God" we can bring up in our minds, so what we need to do is to ALWAYS HOLD THE IMAGE OF GODLIKE BEHAVIOR" in our minds, always see our persons RESPONDING in the proper way to lifes events, no matter where we are in the world. No one has to travel anywhere to do that, we are all on equal playing field in that regard.
The masjid al haraam...sjd refers to submission and masjid is a place of submission....so masjid al haraam refers to he "place" where we submit to the restrictions(laws).
After pondering that for a long time I have come to realize that this is refering to the subconcious(nafs) which is where all laws are carried out. We are to always "face" this masjid because we should always be putting the proper seeds of behavor into this garden(salaat). We must guard our salaat(programming process).

unfortunately, your ponderings and imagination do not bring the rest of us any closer to Truth.

salam brother Idolfree
sorry, my post sounds rude, i mean to say that you need to give us more information on how you come to form your opinions. for example, is it through reasoning, logic, divine inspiration etc.

Peace,
Why you must say that ignoramus?
Alot of the advices in Quran is for spiritual needs and understandings and to grasp that we have each of us to dig deeper.

sorry, i was not denegrating brother Idolfree's post. my point is that we need him to elaborate; at least for me, his post does not shed light on why he has his particular views on the subject.
i really am sorry, i will try to be more careful how i phrase things.

Where is this instituition ??
-
"institution of marriage"
google hits with that exact wording alone 558000 when i searched for it... that doesn't include alternate wordings which refer to the institution of marriage...
now tell me, where is this institution?
oh, can it be that linguistically speaking "institution" stands for an established system? oh wow amazing )

Salaam all,
Thank you brothers for the excellent answers.
I would like to add by quoting what al-qur'aan has to say about this
2144
2149
Here The God clearly explains what "al-masjid al-haraam" is i.e. "al-haqqu min rabbika"/the truth from your Lord, and we are to face towards/orient ourselves to "al-haqqu min rabbika" WHEREVER we are.
