    Salaam johnny_k. The ruh al ameen/faithful spirit commands me to say to you the denier, then reminds me of Allahs promise to you the kafir/rejecter.

    my Lord is not uneasy because of you if you call not on him but you have indeed denied and soon will come the inevitable. This is a hukum to me from the ruh 2577 Say my Lord is not uneasy because of you if you call not on him but you have indeed denied and soon will come the inevitable.

    Allah says to me to travel through the earth and see what was the end of those who denied truth. This is a hukum to me from Allah 611 Say travel through the earth and see what was the end of those who denied truth.

    The ruh says Allah will raise you the kafir/rejecter up so that he can manifest to you the truth of that wherein you differed, and that you may realize that you had surrendered to falsehood. This is an explanation from the ruh 1639 They must be raised in order that he may manifest to them the truth of that wherein they differ, and that the kafir may realise that they had indeed surrendered to falsehood.

    Allah says he has promised hypocrites men and women and kafir rejecters of the faith the like you the fire of jahannum theirein shall you live for you is the curse of Allah and an eduring punishment. This is the previous promise of Allah repeated by the rooh 968 Allah promises hypocrite men and hypocrite women and rejecters/kafir fire of jahannum in it they shall live for them is Allah's curse and an enduring destruction.

    What kind of evil has possessed your mind that you deny the words of Allah and earn the title of kafir upon whom is Allah's curse and a promise of the fire of jahannum and destruction?

    Allah is the best of those who keeps his promises.

          JK- Alright Mr. Araf instead of throwing verses at me which I dont see apply to me at all , BE SPECIFIC and tell me how have i rejected anything. From many of your posts i can see that you are no different than other religious zealots who believe they know it all better. IMHO you are the biggest kaafir i came across here lately because you are arrogant. GOD Bless!

                  Salam jonny_k,

                  I've already answered your questions. That you fail to acknowledge/see the answers is not my responsibility.

                  You obviously have your mind made up.

                  What do you hope to gain? I have my mind made up to.

                  So, why continue the conversation? For the sake of your argumentative appetite?

                  No, thank you.

                  Salam,
                  Arnab

                    "Do you, Arnab, believe that GOD has ever commanded blasphemers/adulterers to be stoned to death and/or burned"? GOD Bless!

                      Salam jonny_k,

                      I?ve repeatedly told you that I believe in ALL revelations of ALLAH. What more do you need?

                      I've also repeatedly told you that there are outermost limits listed in the Torah and the Quran.

                      It is ridiculous that you insist on being shocked and appalled by the verses on punishment in the Torah but easliy accept the punishment verses in the Quran.

                        JK- So then say YES i beleive GOD once commanded stoning to death and burning for adulterers and/or blasphemers. Dont shy away say it then. The fact that you wont shows you still have some good in you and dont want to accept this as ever coming from GOD.

                        I've also repeatedly told you that there are outermost limits listed in the Torah and the Quran.

                        JK- It doesnt matter whether this punishment is outer most or not. EVen if GOD explicitly said "the most you can do is stone a blasphemer to death" I would never have beliwved that GOD said such FOR IT IS NONSENSE. These very suggestions are of a simplistic mind NOT of a Divine Being.

                        It is ridiculous that you insist on being shocked and appalled by the verses on punishment in the Torah but easliy accept the punishment verses in the Quran.

                        JK- Where do the punishment verses in the Quran say that blasphemers, WHICH IS PURE IDEOLOGY, should be killed? Dont you see the difference between allowing a victim to kill a murderer as a max punishment or allowing a victim to max give the offender a blow as harsh as he did initially and allowing someone to kill a blasphemer? If you dont im ready to detail the difference to you. GOD Bless!

                          why don't you just hand out scripts to people. That way they can say things exactly the way you want them to ..... rotfl

                          except I would never do it because I obey God not man.

Your just choosing to hold on to parts of the OT that pleases you whilst you remain silent on the vile stuff which is clearly in there. I call this hypocrisy and it gives the religious elite a dangerous tool to justify their cruelty. It is comparable to the common people amongst the Nazis who didnt actually agree with their acts but did not openly refute their dogma and ahnce allowed them to go on. GOD Bless!

                              (&#65279
                              "Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered prophet, whom they find mentioned in their own (Scriptures); in the Law and the Torah and Gospel; for he commands them what is just and forbids them what is evil he allows them as lawful what is good (and pure) and prohibits them from what is bad (and impure); He releases them from their heavy burdens (that were upon them before) and from the yokes that are upon them. So it is those who believe in him honour, him, help him, and follow the Light which is sent down with him it is they who will prosper." (7-157)

                              Thus, the Quran came to release (change) what were harsh punshment or duties. So, why don't you understand that the Torah containe tough punshment that were changed in Quran.
                              Example, (Chapter 4)

                              (&#65279 (&#65279 (&#65279 (&#65279
                              Also (prohibited are) women already married, except those whom your right hands possess. thus hath Allah ordained (prohibitions) against you except for these, all others are lawful, provided ye seek (them in marriage) with gifts from your property, desiring chastity, not lust. Seeing that ye derive benefit from them give them their dowers (at least) as prescribed; but if, after a dower is prescribed, ye agree mutually (to vary it) there is no blame on you, and Allah is All-Knowing All-Wise. (24) If any of you have not the means wherewith to wed free believing women, they may wed believing girls from among those whom your right hands possess and Allah hath full knowledge about your Faith. Ye are one from another wed them with the leave of their owners, and give them their dowers, according to what is reasonable they should be chaste not lustful nor taking paramours when they are taken in wedlock, if they fall into shame, their punishment is half that for free women. This (permission) is for those among you who fear sin; but it is better for you that ye practise self-restraint And Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. (25) Allah doth wish to make clear to you and to guide you into the ways of those before you; and (He doth wish to) turn to you (in Mercy) and Allah is All-Knowing, All-Wise. (26) Allah doth wish to turn to you, but the wish of those who follow their lusts is that ye should turn away (from Him), far, far away. (27) Allah doth wish to lighten your (difficulties) for man was created weak. (4-2

                                Peace "belalhammad",
                                This is a silly understanding of that verse. Releasing them from the burdens could 1) refer to the burdens which theyve created for themselves and forgetting the true system ordained by GOD 2) GOD indeed prohibited some animals and specific food for the Jews which He then relieved them from. heres the verse which supports that
                                For those who are Jewish we prohibited animals with undivided hoofs; and of the cattle and sheep we prohibited the fat, except that which is carried on their backs, or in the viscera, or mixed with bones. That was a retribution for their transgressions, and we are truthful.

                                NEVER could GOD have commanded stoning for blasphemers BECAUSE THE LAW IS IRRATIONAL. It can lead believers to kill each other since asa a party differs on certain interpretations, which is inevitable in the long run, the other could potentially claim the other as blasphemers and then the result is what is apparent in the "islamic" world today i.e. sunni and shia and even differnet sunnis killing each other. Attributing such nonsense to GOD is in itself blasphemy. GOD Bless!

                                  You see, it happend. (I admire you for using Quran as a proof bravo)

                                    JK- MAN I NEVER DENIED HARD LAWS BUT IRRATIONAL LAWS IS SOMETHING VERY DIFFERENT and the OT does mention killing of blasphemers. It is IMPOSSIBLE that GOD commanded such, SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE.

                                    JK- YOUR comitting the fallacy of ptoving Quran with Quran. THIS IS CIRCULAR LOGIC. Any book which makes the claim to be Divine needs to be PROVEN USING EXTERNAL MEANS i.e. NEEDS TO BE COMPATIBLE WITH REALITY AND SCIETIFIC OBSERVATIONS. Otherwise how would we know it is Divine? It seems that your logic is no different from other religious folk.
                                    As for the adultery example it might be that GOD's punishment was harsher i.e. could be 200 lashes with a specific iron rod or some harder substance whilst now its just lashes in general. Anyways if the punishment were death then it would again be unjust since there can be logically and rationally be no dispute that murder and rape is always a greater crime than adultery and after death what is left? GOD Bless!

                                      In the Quran, God prfected his final Religion.

To each among you have We prescribed a Law and an Open Way. If Allah had so willed, He would have made you a single people, but (His plan is) to test you in what He hath given you so strive as in a race in all virtues. The goal of you all is to Allah; it is He that will show you the truth of the matters in which ye dispute. (5-4

                                        JK- MANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN! GOD does not say He protected the old scriptures. YOUR INSERTING that in brackets and thereby putting words in GOD's mouth now. He protected THE MESSAGE BY REINSTATING THE VITAL PARTS OF THE MESSAGE WHICH IS UNIVERSAL IN THE QURAN. Also im not saying that the true Torah and Psalms cannot be found somewhere but until now it has not been. But the dead sea scrolls maybe part of them. GOD Bless!
