    4-24 ----------seek them with your money , with an aim to maintain chastity, not fornicating, you must pay them their wages before you touch them , and when you have enjoyed them, there is no sin upon you what you both agree to. God is knowledgeable wise.

    What I understand out of this is that "Prostitution is allowed" because,

    siki

    443 O you who believe, do not come near the sala---------------
    Shall we understand out of this that ?God commends us not to make sala? !!!!!!!!?????

      Ok, to the point I see in 4.24 that it says

      ... illa mamalakat aymaanukum kitaabAllahi ...

      gramatically what causes the kitaab to be marfu3? Usually I see it translated in this sentence as a subject. But a subject of what? To say merely that the scripture of God is on them? But then, why marfu3?

      Salaam

      Salaam huruf

      In my opinion, kitaballahi (in the accusative/ ) is an absolute accusative serving a purpose ( ). It's like the word "revenge/ in the following sentence He killed him in revenge (qatalahu-n-tiqaman/ ).

        Do you want me to fill in those lines as to what you understand of Mohsinnat and MMA?

        That would mean , paid sex allowed with only sexually abled ones, the sexually disabled are not to take part in any such activity. ..... or is it otherwise... I am still confused. confused

          So would I be right to undderstand that it qualifies the "ma malakat aymanukum" and it would means something like "those your are rightfully entitled to by virtue of God's scripture"?

          Thanks.

                  Q_student's post reminded me of this thread.

                  Nadia!

                  salam,

                  D Good God, wasn't I pleasantly surprised (and a little ashamed) when I found you oldies much more civilised than what we are as a bunch today. You guys definitely had a higher threshold of tolerance for any non conforming understanding, and debated controversial issues with respect and open mind.

                  About the issue, what I found amazing was, "Not a single one of those few hundred posts" mentioned 4-24. Which in reality, is the commandment packed with evidence in favour of paid sex. On the other hand every one hoping over 24-33, which instead, cautions the guardian to desist forcing a young one for it, in case she doesn't want to.

                  peace

                  siki

                    Thelps,

                    In your explanation of 24-33,

                    you say , "and the sexually disabled , out of these are seeking MMA".

                    1. where is the sexually disabled word in aya 24-33? Or as you have imagined MMA to be sexually disabled, so any one looking for them , would automatically be sexually disabled one?

                    2. Where is the daughter word in 24-33?

                    3. And if they(fatayat) are forced for a sexless marriage, then why would be god forgiving most merciful?
                      siki

                    Thelps!

                    I am expecting answers for my above queries, please! apecially for the 3rd one.

                      Salam siki,

                      There are highs and lows on this forum.

                      I haven't studied the "prostitution is ok" scenario in the quran yet, but when I do, I'll def add my two bits.

                        Yes he could. Does that somehow show that my understanding is un-Quranic?

                        Not at all, Bro, It must be God who could not fore see the repercussions arising from his commandment.

                        Ok, so you agree that my understanding is Quranic and you have no Quranic evidence against it. If so, we will move on to the rest of my summary, ok?

                        How about reading an even closer Koranic version ?.... ... recently posted by me,,,, stating ," Quran encourages prostitution"

                        We will come to that afterward.

                          Probably Prostituites will be "rewarded " for high virtue job on the Day of Judgement.
                          Siki will also get share out of it.

                            I thought the "prostitutes" are well rewarded already in this world , do you think they will be sentenced to "Heaven" as well ? By the way , after 30 pages of discussions , are we any closer to " The Definition of Marriage and whether sex is permitted prior to it " ?

                                Just when I thought Bukhari , Muslim , Abu Dawood et al have been discarded , no wonder that "Mu'tah Marriage" is alive and well in Saudi Arabia . When I was in Saudi , I was offered to marry up to 4 women at once at defferent "Rate of Dowry/AJR" , each woman I could have married from one week to a few months or forever . The differences in 'Rates of AJR' depends on where the women came from , Egyptian commanded 3000 Saudi Riyal , various south Asian women and South East Asian women range from 600 SA Riyal to 2500 . curiously , some African women are as cheap as some Indonesian from certain parts , so are the women from the Philippines . I was told by my local guides and friends that the different rates are determined by " How Much it cost " these women to get to Saudi Arabia and back to their countries . As for the Egyptian women and othe Arab women , they cost 3000 SAR purely because they are Arabs . ( These women can be found at the many supposedly "secret refuges" for Umrah'Hajj Overstayers or Illegal Migrants ) .

                                  So would I be right to undderstand that it qualifies the "ma malakat aymanukum" and it would means something like "those your are rightfully entitled to by virtue of God's scripture"?

                                  Thanks.

                                  Yes, it's about MMA and I believe your understanding is similar to what I understand too.

                                  This quote refers to the mention of mma at the beginning of 4.24.

                                  So what would this "God's scripture" (kitaaba-llahi) be?

                                  I think some of you have been talking about this aspect or something akin in a number of posts. Excuse me if I ask this now concerning this particular phrase.

                                    I've been thinking about sex before marriage for a while in terms of whether it is morally acceptable in my mind/heart.
                                    I concluded yes.

                                    I looked into the Quran and past discussions in the free-minds forum and conlcuded that that which the Quran lables as married would pretty much conform to a relationship between a couple. Meaning that the couple can have sex. Basically i think most of today's societie's defenition of "couple" would be pretty much the same as the Quran's defenition of "marriage".

                                    My understanding of fornication (sex between unmarried people) is something like a one night stand.

                                    I would be very interested in your views.

                                    If i have missed anything please let me know.

                                    Thanks,
                                    peace

                                        Please read 'The Topic' of the thread , where do you think those"Muslims" in Saudi Arabia got the idea from , if not from their interpretation of the Qur'an regarding paying "The AJR" and having sex with the women of their choice ?

                                          Everyone knows those are Hadithi group. What we have to do with them? Why should not quote them in interpretation of the Quran.
                                          Secondly if someone is doing wrong ,he is answerable for his deeds ,not we. We are answerable only for what we do. No??
