    They might be, but first accept their existence, only then we can move forward to find weather HURUF is a sister, brother or both

    siki

    dear brother, It is highly advisable that you take a break for a week or so and come back with a fresh mind so that you are able to take part in a mature discussion, what you said in above post is utter nonsense.

    thanks

      Peace

      What is the use of participating in a discussion when one's position is already set in concrete ? It is very entertaining though I must admit .

        379 It is not for a human that God would give him the Scripture and the authority and the prophethood, then he would say to the people ?Be slaves of me rather than God!?, rather ?Be devotees for what you have been taught of the Scripture, and for what you studied.?

                So, it seems that an important part of answering the initial part of the thread is to determine what are the MMA. One opinion is that they are slaves, or sexual slaves and typically females, another is that they are the spouses in a non-sex marriage, another which I am not sure it has been mentioned in this thread is that they are persons gone over to the believers who were married to unbelievers when they went over and were under the protection of the believers. I do not know whether there are any more theories. If there are, they could be added to the list and may be the whole can be organized and weighed. In and by itself, determining the meaning of MMA is obviously very important. It is also possible that more than one of those meanings might be combined.

                Salaam

                  Peace Samia

                  I know you're in discussion but if i'm not wrong you think ajr is something that's ongoing.

                  I've looked at truthseeker's comments on this and think that he's right based on how the prophet had already given the ujoor 3350

                  So i just wanted to ask (whenever you can) i'd be greatful if you can give your understanding of ajr in 3350 and how it can be something that's ongoing when it's already been given.

                  Using 3350, is their a chance that the prophet was already giving ajr before the marrige?
                  I mean is it definate that ajr has to come after marriage?

                  Could it not be that your giving ajr to someone and then you choose to marry them? Thus after your nikah ajr is already in place??

                  Thanks

                    Salaam nimnimak_11

                    3350

                    O Prophet! verily We have made lawful to you your wives to whom have given their hires, and also those whomsoever your right hand owns of those whomsoever Allah has granted you , and the daughters of your paternal uncle, and the daughters of your paternal aunts, and the daughters of your maternal uncle, and the daughters of your maternal aunts, who migrated with you, and any believing woman, when she offered herself to the Prophet if the Prophet desires to wed her --purely for you, above the rest of the believers. Surely We know that which We have ordained to them concerning their wives and those whom their right hands won in order that there may be no blame upon you And Allah is ever Forgiving, Merciful.

                    I do not find this a strong point. The whole verse should be in the past, yet there is a conditional sentence/case in it. All the translators put the verse in the present perfect. Wouldn't it be that he had been paying the wages up to the moment of the verse? In fact the context is signaling out those who "had been actually married and paid" out of the others who would be paid (if he marries them). Has the prophet married all these women, or he was just told that they were lawful in case he wanted to marry them? The verb tense is to be taken in context.

                      That was amongst the things i was considering.

                      Two more questions please

                      1. Considering that ajr is ongoing Once i begin to give ajr, i have started my obligation. Does this mean that i am married (considering all other things have been done)? Also what happens when i stop giving ajr? Does this mean that i'm no longer 100% married?

                      2. I was interested in this part of the verse "O prophet, We have made lawful for you the wives to whom you have already given their dowry"
                        What is the purpose of the word lawful here? If they are already married which is implied by the usage of the word "wife" and the prophet has given the ajr, then in what way do they need to be lawful to each other? Sex? Wouldn't this mean that more then one women would be lawful to him at a time?? So does this mean that it would have been lawful for him to sleep with more then 1 woman o ???

                      Thanks

                        No, I do not think this stops marriage. Divorce is a longer process. Your wife can either divorce you or the community may interfere and try to solve the problem (412.

                        Made lawful to you does not mean you can marry all of them at once!. If the doctor tells you that you can eat vegetables, fruit and fish, this does not mean you have to eat all of them .

                                  I doubt that there will be any consensus. Also there is no hurry. This is an opportunity to think through and throughly many questions that arise in connection with this subjet. As far as I am concerned one such fundamental question is the meaning or meanings of "ma malakat aymanu(cum)". I intend to study each occurrence of the term and that takes time. No more than three steps and one is already muddled up. Also there is no guarantee that one will come to a final conclusion and maybe there is also no need. God will provide.

                                  Salaam

                                    I was just confused as to where everyone went as I couldn't find a consensus. But of course like you said there is no hurry and God will provide.
                                    I pray that God will guide you on your study.

                                    God bless

                                          http//www.jesus-for-all.com/media/Sha7rour-Marriage-RightHand-Possession/transcript.html

                                          any opinions about this?

                                          I think the doctor has a very negative attitude towards women and children. People, who don't think men have a responsibility towards their children, are scum.

                                          Sheikh Khaled Our professor. What happens if there was pregnancy out of adultery? In case the relationship is behind closed doors, nobody is watching and the rest of the conditions you told us do not apply.

                                          Dr Shahrour Yes, it's her fault then.

                                          Sheikh Khaled Then what?

                                          Dr Shahrour It's her fault that she agreed to that.

                                          Sheikh Khaled What do we tell her now; throw away your baby in the basket?

                                          Dr Shahrour It's her fault I'm saying, her fault. I'm telling you that 80% of the relationships on earth are allowed (halal).
