4057 The creation of the heavens and the earth is indeed greater than the creation of mankind, yet most of
mankind know not.2285 The messenger believes in what was sent down to him from his Lord; and the believers, all who believe in God, and His angels, and His Books, and His messengers We do not make a distinction between any of His messengers; and they said We hear and obey, forgive us our Lord, and to you is our destiny.
2286 God does not burden a soul except with what it can bear. For it is what it earns, and against it is what it earns. Our Lord, do not mind us if we forget or make mistakes; our Lord, do not place a burden upon us as You have placed upon those before us; our Lord, do not place upon us what we cannot bear; pardon us, and forgive us, and have mercy on us; You are our patron, so grant us victory over the disbelieving people. -

Duck, where did I say that Egypt produces Fake prophets (or sects leaders) except for Rashad Kalifa and Ayman...Did I say that because Ayman is from Egypt, then he is Fake, or did I say Ayman, the Egyptian Man, is Fake as Rashad Kalifa, the Egyptian Man.

Peace belH,
May the verses you sent guide us all to what Allah wishes.
These verses are very important and again emphasize that we need to focus on the Quran as a basis for our understanding. Now if you combine that with the verse of my signature, the environment needs to be studied, and with other verses Allah urges to study our environment, together as what is within ourselves, and then verify for ourselves, by any means at our disposal, that indeed what is said in the Quran is indeed the Truth.
This is supposed to be ongoing, it has not stopped with Imam Shafie, or Ibn Taimia, Hassan Al Banna, Syed Qutb or Muhamed Abdu (to cite Arab "reformers".
I would think that after a long period of stagnation, it is overdue to look into every single thing that deals with the faith, and verify everything as far back as the first schisms in Islam happened.
Allah is very patient, but He has a plan, and no one can stop His plan, so if we are not worthy, He will destroy us and find others more worthy to carry His plan.
There are already people who have the correct attitude, but not the correct belief, they are misled by the "muslims" themselves (which is a crime against Allah) because they present to them a bad image of Islam.
Read this for instance, this is a beautiful example of someone who should have been a Muslim doing his job of working to unravel the secrets of God's creation, and in the process finding something useful to help mankind. Now when he succeeds, how many "muslims" will be saved by his efforts. And how many "muslims" will also be punished because he was not exposed to the true message of Islam?

In the same way Mr Ayman is making an effort to understand the Quran, I was easily convinced from the start by him because I was not brought up by a sectarian (my father was a muslim), and because I strongly believe that Allah gave us logic, geometry and understanding of patterns (mathematics) to make pronouncements, and if you look at the way the {Allah,} are related to one another, you will use a luni-solar calendar as it takes into account of all the parameters that Allah describes in the Quran...
You can look at it as an opinion, or you can be honest and dig deep in your heart and find out who are you doing it for (clinging to a pure Moon calendar), just ask Allah, without anticipating your correct answer...
it might take some time, after all it took me seven to ten years to get out of the sunni hell hole...2285 The messenger believes in what was sent down to him from his Lord; and the believers, all who believe in God, and His angels, and His Books, and His messengers We do not make a distinction between any of His messengers; and they said We hear and obey, forgive us our Lord, and to you is our destiny.

The Prophet and his followers understood the following Quranic rules about their Calender
It shall be 12 Months per year
We shall use the Sun and the Moon to calculate the length of the yearBecause we cannot use the sun to calculate the month because there is no obvious Markers to mark the Month Boundary (Beginning and End), nor we can not use the sun to calculate the day boundary (Beginning and End) because the Moon is not available every day. Thus, no brainier, we use the Moon to calculate the month because of its obvious cycle allows us to do so (beginning of the Month and End), and the sun to calculate the day because of its obvious cycle allow us to do so.
We shall use the Moon to calculate the Month and the sun to calculate the day.

Prohphet(pbuh) understood this and had correct system. God would ensure that he understood correctly, if he did not , HE guided him, The system got corrupted gradually after his death, but we have the system preserved in the great reading , we have to take clues and info from Quran and then use our God given ability of logic and reason, to restore what God originally intended it to be. We must not let our brain logic be over ridden by corrupted baggage that we have been carrying along since our childhood.
We should use sun for day, and years, and as these are two units far apart, we need to split the bigger unit (year) into smaller units taking help of the moon. As the moon has different geometry/orbit , not in sync with sun, so it cannot split the bigger unit into accurate exact units. So God does not make this unit as a month because of inherent inaccuracy , but tell us to take help from a marker to split it into approximate units for keeping count. Also, the different shapes give us some idea where we are in that period (man made month)
Month is not quranic, nor is week hour, minute or second.
Main question is what to use for a year? and it looks like you are getting on track. Year is solar, because the life on earth is being governed by sun, not by moon. Moon is just a help to split the bigger unit into intermediate count.

Let no one underestimate The Lord; There is no inaccuracy in our Lord's created System, rather, it is in the Humans' logic, which when failing to grasp the wisdom of the system, they call it inherent Inaccuracy.
The Bigger, the year, should be split into 12 Moon Cycles, as per our Lord Instruction.Peace,

exactly, you need to have something to split first, the thing to split is the solar year...
think, use this amazing one kilo computer between the ears that the Almighty Allah has given you.
and the Moon helps you do the splitting (counting / segmenting) exactly like cutting a dessert pie... -

As the moon cycle is 29,53 days, hence it would visibly return to the same shape for an earth bound observer either in 29 or sometimes in 30 days, hence a month can not be a fixed period. I am not talking about inaccuracy in God's system.
And yes , you should count 12 moons in a year as per our God's instruction , and ignore the thirteenth when it arrives every 3rd year.
Remember , God does not say that 12 moon cycles make it a year, but it is worded , "count only 12 in a Year" He is not making a year out of 12 moon cycles , but telling you to count 12 moons only in a year cycle which you know. And what is a year? orbit of earth around sun , is a year.

do you mean that the thirteenth Moon is the inherent Inaccuracy? thus, we should ignore it...Thus what would you call this Moon, would you call it "God's System Inherent Inaccuracy"? or to be more polite, GSII Moon?

Show me where in the Quran that God says the Year Should be calculated by using the Gorginian Calender or any other similar Calender?

it is ok, I am not a patient man, but here goes, i will ask you this question"imagine you only have a pure lunar calendar, how if the need arises would you point to a month that is contained in one season, like winter or autumn, spring or summer?"
take your time...
also surely the Quran does talk about the seasons, so you cannot say it is not Quranic...
Salam

You need a WELL-ESTABLISHED proof from Quran, about the above assumption, before proceeding with your argument.

The Moon Calender purposes are to identify the timing of Hajj, Ramadan, and the Four restricted Months; timings which seasons (summer, fall, winter, spring) are not applicable. There are no mentioning in Quran to perform hajj, or to Fast ramadan, or to not Go to War in specific seasons.
Now, are you going to argue about Ramadan = Scorching Heat? ...Please do not.

Well peace brother belh, how you been? Long time no hear. Im just speaking. peace
O.k. now, peace all,
jedi The Lord said
" For like 1400 yrs you have gone without eating during the 9th month. But did you do it for Me? And when you eat, isnt it for your own enjoyment? My message today is the same one I commanded the earlier prophets to tell Juruslim and its villiges when they were prosperous. As well as the others, when they were filled with people. So, once again,I, the Lord All-Powerful, tell you " See that justice is done, be kind and merciful to one another, and stop making plans to hurt each other."
When you worship Me by going without eating, it should become a time of celebration.

The implications of what you are saying are that you want a lunar calendar for religious rites, and another calendar for seasonal functional affairs.
So how about the interpretation of Joseph's that he made of the king's dream, did he make it using a lunar calendar (religious) so that each year is about 354 days, or the solar calendar in which each year is exactly 365.25 days?
Do you really believe that Allah wants us to divide or separate Deen from our daily life?
this is what most of the modern people say, this is why there is not much morals left in the world, apply God's law in the kannisat (church),
and man's laws outside are separate.
I guess this is how it all started, with the help of the son of Abu Sufyan, Muawyah who sure wanted to get back the rich idolatrous Quraish centre stage.
Allah in the Mosque, Rulers in the Land...
I also do not dispute that the Moon purpose is to identify the timing of Hajj, Ramadan and four restricted months, but you cannot isolate it from how it is used, without the Sun radiance, the Moon is useless, it is the Sun's radiance that gives the crescents which we then use to count the portions of solar year that elapse. Allah has told us to fix that as twelve portions, twelve segments, it is simple mathematics, Allah is aware that people of that time had some knowledge of mathematics.
The reason you cannot use a pure lunar system is because it is a relative system that lacks information, it cannot tell you when you are, you need a point of reference, and a rule of concordance or conversion with the absolute co-ordinate which is the solar one.
Otherwise why does Allah painstakingly talks about the orbiting of the Sun, the Earth, and the Moon and their place in His creation?
You cannot separate the link between the three.Salam

PS Quran never encourage muslims to go to war only when necessary in self defense btw...ponder this lunar or luni-solar?
1060 In the name of God, the Almighty, the Merciful.
1061 This should be cherished by Quraysh.
1062 The way they cherish the journey of the winter and summer.
1063 So let them serve the Lord of this Dwelling.
1064 The One who fed them from hunger, and protected them from fear.The Moon Calender purposes are to identify the timing of Hajj, Ramadan, and the Four restricted Months; timings which seasons (summer, fall, winter, spring) are not applicable.

I believe so; however, I do not fully understand the wisdom of our Lord about this, due to my limited logic (I'm a Human), that only can increase by God's will...all I can say for now, I HEAR and I OBEY.
