Ayisha
Raj, when did you answer for mazhar, there are plenty of unanswered questions of your own.
I think Mazhar is more knowledgeable than me and does not need me to answer for him.
Since, you kept on answering for many do whom i had conversation with.
And surely that has been repeated for many times now, NO ONE CAN ANSWER YOU. -

then why did you?Since, you kept on answering for many do whom i had conversation with.
And surely that has been repeated for many times now, NO ONE CAN ANSWER YOU.I have not answered 'for' anyone else and I have managed to answer questions put to me.
Are you saying no one has knowledge, including you, to answer questions about claims that you have made? So you are admitting here that you have made claims about things you cannot back up and really have no knowledge of.

Yes no one can answer to a brain that is protected so heavily.

doesn't say anything about doing it in groups in public. It is plural because he is saying it to a group of men outside his door. The 'see' part is more of a 'don't you get it?' than 'watching', its not watching its seeing, there is a difference. There is also a difference in seeing with the eyes and seeing with the mind, ie giving thought to something. 28.72 is a good example of what I mean, same word used but there is nothing to 'see' or 'watch' and is more 'think'.
You admit there is difference in watching and seeing. Yet you can not even see that the word used and underlined by me with red line is for watching not seeing. Watch is only when one focuses upon a thing. And Basr can be used only when one focuses and watches and is therefore also used to perceive and conceive the perception. Arabic is a precise language.
And I had asked you to also see the plurality and mood of verb which only reflects that they did it openly and in group, everybody watching/focussing as is done in recording of porno movies. And if you see the conjunction "waw" in the beginning of the subordinate clause/sentence which is called it would have confirmed you that it is describing the state in which the described act they used to perform as habit.
And I give you one more information about the sentence indicating the reason of my translation, object of the verb has been omitted.
And remember this is not about the episode of last days when people had gathered at his door.

How is that used for watching and not seeing when the same word is used in 28.72 as I pointed out, what is being 'watched' in that verse? 43.51 same, what is being watched? 51.21 same, what is being watched? None of these verses refer to watching something or even seeing something with the eyes but with the mind. One can 'focus' the mind as well as the eyes. Plainly 'do you not get it'
What makes you say this is not the episode when people were gathered at Abrahams door? because its in a different verse? You did the same with Zakaraya asking for a child when it was 2 instances of the same event. This again is telling of the same event.

Ayisha what makes you say that at the time of prophet Lut, there was no public sex. At least Mazhar has presented his evidence, you not agree with that, you seldom do, but I want to see any counter evidence, a historical or other wise. If you can that will help.

Mazhar has presented evidence of public sex where exactly? he has presented his view of a translation that NO OTHER translator has come up with.

i am not sure, but let us say I agree with you. At least he has presented his translation, which he not made at once, it was already there on his site. What is your proof for negating that there wasn't any group or public sex at time of Prophet Lut?
he presented following argument in his favor

You do not agree but where is yours for not agreeing. Many same words are used with different meanings at different places.

No! you just disagreed with his translation as usual. Where is your proof that there was no public or group sex at times of LUT?

That is NOT proof there was. He made the claim and 'backed it up' with rubbish and has not even come back and answered what I have said AGAINST his perverted translation. the other verses I used against his argument were referenced to HIS translations of those verses. Now if you want to take his place and answer for him as opposed to answering anything for you, than please look at the verses I gave and tell me what is being WATCHED in them.

peace all,
I only recently read his discussion on 56 and 443 and found it lacking. He only briefly utilised/mentioned Quran concordance, and committed some logical fallacies whilst he was at it.
That does not mean he is wrong however, it simply means based on what he said, it is far from proven.
His work is still on my reading list however.

Dear All,
Any body read the above books in which Dr Qamaruzzaman rejects Salat and Hadith as being against the Qur'an. You can download English PDF Versions of all three books at www.aastana.com.
Mubashir
Salam.
In my understanding, someone who rejects Salat and Fasting as being against Quran have lost their way, and don't even deserve to be read. That's what is good about the Criterion that we have.
Other similar self-styled deviant cases that called their whims Islam include at least Dr. Shabbir, and, Pervez (who is listed on this website for some strange reasons). -
peace,

Firstly, no-one who follows Quran can reject "salat", so the way in which you phrased this part is incorrect. Perhaps you meant to say "prayer".
Secondly, "sawm" does not mean "fast" if you are using the conventional English definitionfast
verb (used without object)
1.
to abstain from all food.
2.
to eat only sparingly or of certain kinds of food, especially as a religious observance.
verb (used with object)
3.
to cause to abstain entirely from or limit food; put on a fast to fast a patient for a day before surgery.
noun
4.
an abstinence from food, or a limiting of one's food, especially when voluntary and as a religious observance; fasting.
5.
a day or period of fasting.It means "abstinence", this is fairly clear from Quran. From aastana, the dispute seems to be abstaining from what.
Other similar self-styled deviant cases that called their whims Islam include at least Dr. Shabbir, and, Pervez (who is listed on this website for some strange reasons).
No-one is perfect, but the above two names you mention have made some solid points on some issues.

I have recently read Haqeeqat Saum and find the arguments against saum not meaning fasting very plausible. Is there any other articles out there which argues against fasting?
Peace be apon you all.

Thank you. It mentions that Saum is some sort of training program. My thoughts on this is that I find this idea more plausable than fasting.
I asked someone once why do we fast? His reply was we fast to see how people without food feel so that in return we can be more giving. However, does it make us more giving? Do we just give in the Ramadan? Shoudl we be thinking of the poor all year round?
When I read AQ I try and see or understand what the end product of Saum can be.
2183 Fast so you may be righteous
2184 Fasting is better for you
2187 during the night of fasting you can approach your women sexually. (I am so confused with this verse! Is fasting only for men? Also, "and do not approach them while you are devoted in
the temples". If you was in a temple would anyone approach their women sexually if thats what it means?)2196
.... If you are secure,
then whoever goes to visit and continues until the Pilgrimage, then
he shall provide what is affordable of donation; but for he who
cannot find anything, then he must fast for three days during the
Pilgrimage and seven when he returns;..... (So, if you have no money to give you must fast? If someone could explain I am all ears)492.... fasting of two months sequentially as a repentance from God. (Fasting for killing someone? Seems like a very easy get away?)
I haven't gone through all of the occurances but trying to make sense of it all at the moment requires more reading and research. I sometimes get fustrated I could not spend more time in trying to do the required research, but may Allah guide us in the right direction and help us with our endeavors for the truth.
Peace

Salaam,
You are welcome hope4.
I first started rethinking the fasting issue after I had read This Article by Aidid Safar about two years ago.
The answer that person gave you as to WHY we fast is sorely lacking.
First of all fasting from sun up 'til sun down for 29 or 30 days does not compare to permanent hunger 365 days. And some of those days many people have to go days or even weeks without eating. The so-called Muslims get to eat at sundown, so no comparison.
Second of all, if I have to fast in order to develop compassion for the poor and hungry, what does that say about me and the type of person that I really am?
