      Surprised? A free-minder using gossip material as argument.

      And Musa said, "O Fir'aoun ! Indeed I am the Messenger from the Sustainer Lord of the known and existing Worlds

      For this reason you people be mindful/cautious of Allah and listen and accept my word.

      Others said the same in same words-keep reading

      Mazhar you are missing the point. Quran tells you these previous prophets declared they were messengers but not without giving the message, they also said much more than Quran tells you, its a reminder so its not going over everything again, just reminding. These prophets were delivering a message from God but its the message that one has to believe. If one believes the message then is stands to reason they believe the messenger bringing it. if the postman comes to your house and says he is the postman you want him to give you post, hes not a postman to you until he does and its the post thats relevant not the postman. The belief is for the message first, without that belief then you cannot believe in the messenger.

      Dont make the same mistake you are warned about in Quran in how the Christians raised one prophet higher to the point of being God. It says clearly Muhammed is no more than a messenger and he said the same as all prophets did, worship GOD alone.

        This question wouldnt even arise if we asked 'does the quran even talk of congregational prayer'. or even 'prayer'.

          This is the virus that creates the disease leading one to become a Munafiq. Munafiq feel uncomfort whenever any thing authentic about the Messenger he listens.

          Dear Mazhar,

          Your logic is exactly the opposite of what The Qur'aan says. According to The Qur'aan a munafig is the one who verbally testifies that Muhammad is the messenger of GOD/ALLAAH(SWT). Just see 631 for clarification.

          Peace,
          Khalil

            Many forget what the real Message is all about. many think Quran has rules/rituals to follow.
            All rules/rituals are created by man with his free will, God in Quran authorizes some rituals what Mohammed and people at his time followed, if they benefits the society and forbids some for some specific reasons, so rituals are meant to be changed for the benefit of society. Quran didnt invent anything as God doesnt have any NEED except HE expects a peacefull society.

              I don't indulge in presumptive speculations. What is told is in simple words. Musa alalhissalam told him that he is the Messenger of Allah and gave him the message that let the Bani Israel go with me. And then all history is told. And for the blindness of those who equate the Messenger to a postman, Musa alahissalam got the Book after many events had passed after exodus. People believed in him as Messenger of Allah.

              Belief in Allah alone will never take anybody into Paradise. Belief and acceptance of Allah and His Messengers is the precondition for paradise. The litmus test of Taqwa is who honours, respects and revers the Last Messenger. Rest is all self deception, which may get everything spoiled leading straight to hell, as says the Qur'aan.

                God spoke to Moses before the exodus, God told Moses to tell the people and Moses knew they wouldnt believe him so God gave him words to say and miracles to show them to make them believe him, see burning bush, staff into snake, leprous hand, etc. That is before the 10 commandments but people had to SEE the the proof before they believed.

                As for the blindness of equating Muhammed to a postman there are numerous verses telling you his only job was to deliver the message.

                Belief in Allah alone will never take anybody into Paradise. Belief and acceptance of Allah and His Messengers is the precondition for paradise. The litmus test of Taqwa is who honours, respects and revers the Last Messenger.

                That is opposite to what Quran is telling us and opposite to what every prophet and messenger has told us, but as before the people change and need to rever a human person. Christians say the very same about Jesus.

                Rest is all self deception, which may get everything spoiled leading straight to hell, as says the Qur'aan.

                Other than Worshipping Allah Alone and Glorifying HIM Alone gets you straight to hell

                  So did you asked? if yes what did it reply? if No read Surah Jummah for instance.

                    Why he expects a peacefull society and for that peacefull society what does he advises?

                      If God wanted us to do azaan a certain way, surely He would've specified. But clearly God did not.

                      How you want to call people to prayer, that's up to you. Now, if find something that you have been doing bothersome then the question is if it is coming from God or if it is coming from satan.

                      The most used sentence by so called Quranists "do as you wish"?
                      Does that full fill the concept of Ummah? you are trying to bring up a society that is scattered, all moving towards his own way.

                      What is the meaning of Azaan?
                      Invitation, therefore when you invite some one it must be in polite and humble way, and it becomes more important when you call some one to the duty assigned by Allah,
                      So your claim "that's up to you" is absurd.
                      It is a common practice among all the Muslim countries, from the earliest recorded history of Islam, with few differences of word?
                      Regarding the claim of Including of word Muhammad in it, we have to know what was original Azaan? and I have asked the question but no one has replied to it.

                      some one even claimed that will Muhammad include his own name in the Azaan? What about when he read or recited the Quran, which was intially adressed to him, did it make any sense then?

                        the ummah IS scattered through sects, uniting a call to prayer is not going to solve that.

                        What is the meaning of Azaan?
                        Invitation, therefore when you invite some one it must be in polite and humble way, and it becomes more important when you call some one to the duty assigned by Allah,
                        So your claim "that's up to you" is absurd.

                        you didnt understand what he said in the context he said it. What WORDS are used is irrelevant and it has been said by someone else that 'let us pray' could also be used. There is nothing in Quran telling you HOW to call to prayer or what WORDS to use to INVITE to prayer.

                        It is a common practice among all the Muslim countries, from the earliest recorded history of Islam, with few differences of word?
                        Regarding the claim of Including of word Muhammad in it, we have to know what was original Azaan? and I have asked the question but no one has replied to it.
                        because there is no record of it IN Quran but lets say Muhammed called the original prayer, he would have called to GOD ALONE and not added his own name to that. You are being called to worship GOD, not to Muhammed and not to worship Muhammed and not to testify anything to do with Muhammed. Its mentioned as 'call to prayer' and prayer is for God Alone.

                        some one even claimed that will Muhammad include his own name in the Azaan? What about when he read or recited the Quran, which was intially adressed to him, did it make any sense then?

                        yes because he was RECITING what GOD told him to. The words are GOD'S words, not Muhammed's. He did not include his own name in Azhan as this is a call to GOD.

                          the ummah IS scattered through sects, uniting a call to prayer is not going to solve that.

                          So we shall cotinue that way,further scattering them.
                          oh! people of the scripture Let us come to the common terms.....

                          you didnt understand what he said in the context he said it.

                          So you are posting by different nicks?

                          because there is no record of it IN Quran but lets say Muhammed called the original prayer, he would have called to GOD ALONE and not added his own name to that. You are being called to worship GOD, not to Muhammed and not to worship Muhammed and not to testify anything to do with Muhammed. Its mentioned as 'call to prayer' and prayer is for God Alone.

                          How come to say "Muhammad is Rasul of Allah" equivalent to worship Muhammad? come on voodoo

                          yes because he was RECITING what GOD told him to. The words are GOD'S words, not Muhammed's. He did not include his own name in Azhan as this is a call to GOD.

                          Azaan was developed by the consultation of many and not by Muhammad peace is upon him alone, for your kind information.

                                Peace,
                                Respectfully.

                                Call to the rpayer.
                                Wouldn't a simple come to the prayer, o believers, be enough?
                                I mean, it's justa call to the prayer and I don't think it should be complicated.
                                God know sbest. Glory be to God.

                                Peace be upon you.

                                    This is those in the PRESENCE of the messenger, we are not in his presence as he is no longer with us, those in his PRESENCE at that time. How can we raise our voices higher than him when he is not here alive?

                                      Ayisha have you read this verse before

                                      Al-Quran

                                      And ask those of Our messengers whom We sent before you "Did We ever appoint gods besides the Almighty to be served?"

                                      We sent before You? how can one ask them? if they are dead?

                                      Its that you cannot preceive!

                                      Allah Ho Akbar

                                        This is not saying ask them as you are inferring as its giving the answer in the verse, its saying no one but ALLAH is to be served!

                                        Different to telling the people with him to not raise their voices over his which you have to be there to do.

                                          Progressive Muslims"
                                          And do not say of those who are killed in the sake of God that they are dead; no, they are alive but you do not perceive

                                          It is only Muatation that takes place, from one place to another, soul never dies!

                                          ?And ask those of our Mesengers, whom we sent before you, ?Did We appoint any other god except the All-Affectionate, to be worshipped???

                                          This is said to Prophet Muhammad Peace is upon him, and not to you or me.

                                          and finally

                                          And how can you reject when God's revelations are being recited to you and among you lives His messenger? And whoever holds firmly to God has been guided to the straight path.

                                          The word ?lives? has cleared all doubts. ?Among you? has been generalised, meaning with every individual, wherever he or she may be regardless of time. Man?s vision and power of hearing is restricted.

                                          Ayisha what ever excuse you may come up with, BUt love and respect of Muhammad MINUS Islam is BIG GAp.
