    peace al araf,

    clarification for the above please...

    and also, there are verses in the previous scriptures (i have mentioned very, very few above) that can't be confirmed in the final scripture. should i take that as lawful/valid as the verses that can be found in the quran even if these are not in the quran.

    another example the previous scriptures talked about abraham circumcising himself & his "nation". we cannot find this in the quran. if one is to confirm the information of another, the former must have the information of what is needed to be confirmed among the latter. the quran does not have this circumcision hadith. so do we or do we not give credence to circumcision?

    my point is since the quran confirms the previous scriptures, it must contain "everything" that is in the previous scriptures. it means that it contains ALL that is in the previous scriptures. following quran alone is following the previous scriptures & this saves you from the tedious comparative study of scripture.

    may allah forgive me if i'm wrong & may he increase our knowledge.

    thanks for the prompt reply.

    peace all.

    ramon

    I'd disagree with you, because the common method of the god telling us about something are of those things that people do wrong about. Something significant as circumcision, if the god did not like it, would have made some mention of it.

    One would have to determin the reason behind male circumcision. (I cannot say much about female circumcision, as there's nothing there to circumcise apart from female organs).

    The benefits of circumcision are good enough reason http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_analysis_of_circumcision

    And no, it shouldn't contain everything in the previous scriptures, as that would go against many of the things mentinoed in the Quran. And if you think studying the god's words is tedious... then perhaps you should change that opinion, as you'll be screwed over when the god activates Quran 4738.

    That's why you have to find a rich woman to marry, like the Prophet did sun

    The prophet already had a job, before he was asked for marriage. He was so good at his job, the boss wanted to keep him for permenant duties.

      salam ramon and siki. i am sure you agree that allah is perfect without any flaw, and all the actions of allah are perfect including what he has revealed to man as his commandments.

      i am also sure, that you agree, that man is argumentative, full of error, and if it was not for the mercy of allah we would all be destroyed.

      the position you are taking, is to say, that you are free from error, and that allah made mistakes, was unable to protect the torah, and that therefore allah needed to send a new book to correct his mistakes. this attitude i find quite frankly shocking and disrespectful to allah and his wisdom and glory.

      my position is allah is free from error, and man make mistakes, and allah has protected the torah, and allah made no mistake therefore does not need to send any new book to correct a mistake, the mistake is yours not that of allah. this attitude if find most respectful of allah and his wisdom and glory.

      so what will it be? are you going to continue to to claim you are perfect with no mistake, and that allah made all the mistakes?

      allah is the best of those who teach.

      peace al araf,

      no one is claiming perfection. perfection is an exclusive attribute of God.

      i am not rejecting the previous scriptures that came before the quran. i am not rejecting the prophets-messengers that came before muhammad. but i believe in God when He says that the quran confirms the previous scriptures. for the quran to CONFIRM the previous scriptures, it must contain ALL that is in the previous scriptures.

      if you let "someone" come to "somebody" to confirm information that "you" have, then "you" are certain that "somebody" has the same information as "you" because that is the only way that "somebody" can confirm the information to "someone".

      i believe in the Lord of the universes when He says that the quran confirms the previous scriptures. following the quran alone is following the previous scriptures.

      i am not perfect. you are not perfect. none of us is perfect.

      and everyone is abd'allah.

      SLM everyone.

            peace FAR,

            Meaning that the post above is the one i replied to al araf.
            Meaning that the quran cannot confirm what is not in it.
            Meaning that what is not in the quran cannot be in the previous scriptures.
            Meaning that following the quran alone is following the previous scriptures.

            peace all.

                  Based upon what??? Confirm??? Are we talking about an arabic word translated? Perhaps you should refer to the arabic of that translated word.

                    i have a question for the men, and try to clear you minds from all beleifs for a moment, if it was legal and accepted by society as a norm would men love more then one and marry ??

                    Peace,
                    Respectfully.

                    Sister, i think some men are already doing that they have several relationships and the girls don't know about the others. I know it's wrong but i can't convince them. I follow The Quran and my fioncee and i are very happy, Thank God.

                    Peace. sun

                        Yes. I believe that man can love more than one woman at a time. Whether it will be equal is another question.

                        Man has a different love for wife, mother, sister, daughter. However, as far as marriage is concerned, the love will be their, but the level of love will no doubt be different.

                        Maybe the question should of been Can a man love more than one woman at a time fairly/equally?

                          A man can love more than one woman at once, but he cannot love them equally. Nobody loves two people equally. You'll always love somebody more than you love somebody else, no matter by how much it is. )
