    Some may find this interesting

    http//www.beliefnet.com/section/quiz/index.asp?sectionID=10004&surveyID=108

    I got 20, spiritual seeker.

    All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

      23 - Spiritual Seeker

      Some of the choices/answers didn't apply at all. But I think it generally worked.

      peace

        Yes, like Q20 Whom/what would you consult if you have a question.

          26, spiritual seeker. I laughed at the "Who would you go to for guidance" section, it only listed humans.

            Does this mean that I am what people say when they label some as progressive muslims? & wow confused

            I didn't really see myself as such...but maybe the description fits. hmm But obviously from the limit of choices they have from the questions as answers, they are not 100% accurate in describing me or maybe most on this forum. )

            As Salaamu Alaikum, peace

            You scored 40, on a scale of 0 to 60. Here's how to interpret your score
            0 - 15
            Secular Muslim. Read more about yourself.
            16 - 30
            Spiritual Seeker. Read more about yourself.
            31 - 45
            Progressive Muslim. Read more about yourself.
            46 - 60
            Traditional Muslim. Read more about yourself.

            You are a progressive Muslim.
            You are a devout believer in God, and Islam is your direct path to Him. You understand Islam mainly through your intellect. You probably interpret Islam historically and might believe that ijtihad should be reopened. You have probably gone through years of questioning to come to the understanding of Islam that you have now. You might receive criticism for what are perceived as your open views.

                      20 here. I agree some of the questions were not applicable or there weren't enough choices.

                        0 = least traditionalist, more or less atheist/"secular"

                        60 = full blown hadeethist.

                        It's a measure of how "hadeethist" you are, not how "muslim" you are.

                          Peace,
                          I got 31 "Progressive Muslim". Q20 should have had a reference to indepedent lines of inquiry though. I selected no. 2 coz of the first phrase which i connected with dont ask any specific human/group. However ther 2nd would contradict this anyways so whatever the options were absurd anyways. GOD Bless!

                                <ahem> Yes, I would expect most here to get spiritual seeker.

                                      Here's another got 31, but would have replied differently with other choices. I agree w whoever said it measured how hadeethist you are.

                                        Damn! I still have 7 points to go to be pure and good and whatnots.. D

                                        53 Traditional Muslim... ;D I guess I fail at that even when I try... '(

                                        Ok.. I seriously think that site just sent all my information to the dept. of homland sercurity for answering those questions the way I did. lol! ... no seriously.. I think I just got myself into a series of terror watch lists and no fly lists aswell...

                                        So I guess, by taking that quiz, I learned the real answer to the question "What Kind of Muslim Are You?"

                                        A f#ked one... giveup

                                        btw. for this question

                                        Q4. If your Muslim friend told you he is gay, you would

                                        1. Work hard at convincing him that people have homosexual thoughts, but they should not be acted upon because they are forbidden.

                                        It's not only my gay friends.. but all my friends that I work with to convince them not to act on their homosexual thoughts.. ok.. ok... it's everybody that i do this with.. not just friends... actually this test was so "gay" that I'm trying to convince my computer not to act upon it's thoughts from being on that site... -*
