Are you a Quran believing............

Rev_John

And those who say "Our Lord! Bestow on us
from our wives and our offspring
who will be the comfort of our eyes,
and make us leaders for the Muttaq?n" Those will be rewarded with the highest place
(in Paradise) because of their patience.
Therein they shall be met with greetings
and the word of peace and respect.
(Qur'an 2574-75)

What does Muttaq?n mean? (sorry to sound ignorant, but I do not understand Arabic)

What does Muttaq?n mean? (sorry to sound ignorant, but I do not understand Arabic)

The Muttaqun are those that believe, fear Allah and look to what He has ordained in carrying out His actions to avoid His displeasure and sadness

So it has many meanings depending on the context?

How is it depicted in the Quran?

Here is another example;

Waallatheena hum lifuroojihim hafithoona

And those who guard their chastity,

Illa AAala azwajihim awma malakat aymanuhum fa-innahum ghayru maloomeena
( &#1722
Except with their wives, those whom their right hands possess,- for (then) they are not to be blamed,

peace

So what is your stance on this?

I am not sure I understand the meaning. If you could tell me, in plain English, what your interpritation of that section is, maybe I can then answer your question (which I would love to do).

Can you please explain what a Quran-only Christian is? ???

Furthermore, anyone who submits to God alone is a Muslim (Submitter).

unknownuser

quran only 19er submitter Muslim

No longer a Sunna-rejecter

So it has many meanings depending on the context?

some people say it means "God-fearing". I would say in basic terms "righteous, keeping the balance in society, following God's laws, conscientious, forethoughtful, etc. etc."

Submitter = Muslim

I'm not sure what a Quran only Christian is as most Christians would reject the Quran as it does not fit in with their belief in the trinity or the so-called divinity of Jesus, but I do know what a God-alone Christian is, or a One-God Christian, because I am one.

As far as i am aware Gods people are;

those who guard their chastity, Except with their wives.

Whats your stance regarding this?

Thanks.

I believe the quran is a book inspired by God to a christian- according to my understanding.

That is why it is denying trinity.

So anybody following the true quran can be a christian but without the belief in the trinity.

Many people all over the world submit to God- so whether they call themselves Muslim or not , they would be muslim-i think.

God Bless.

Well of course I agree with that statement

I agree, I am a non-trinitarian Christian, and I find no fault with the Quran or with Islam, but I am not Muslim in the modern understanding of the word but, of course am in the real meaning of the word.

I guess I'm a non-quran only Muslim. Subud shia natural law rational monotheist. I think the real Quran is with God.

So that makes you a God-alone Muslim? If so, you and most people on here (including the God-alone Christians).
