          Lol didn't know Edip's accent until today. p

          Debating a Salafi? Really? You were better off arguing with a brick wall.

            well done edip! We are proud of you

            Keep in mind that in particular sunnism is all about controling people and their mind, and when the sunnis loose that control, it threatens their whole ideology and that is why the salafi guy became so annoyed and angry although he tried his best not to show off his anger in order to avoid being labeled 'uncivilized' but basically he was a very typical stubborn hadither. Just watch how he after a while began to make personal attacks, as well as changing the subject in order to avoid the actual point.
            If you notice it, you will see that these hadithers usually dont get angry while debating with non-muslims, but they become very angry and annoyed when debating former muslims or quran aloners because we are ''insiders'' who know their religion to depth as well as their weakness and secrets. Due to these obvious reasons, hadithers cannot fool us as they can fool non-muslims with their usual excuses.

            but hey you could see that salafi holy guys legs rotfl is that a sign of holiness )

            Its only when you debate secular sunnis/shiites or sunnis/shiites who dont take their religion so serious, that you can expect some kind of agreement and understanding. I have spoken to some secular sunnis who agreed with me regarding hadith, but that didnt made them take any action since they already didnt gave religion any serious importance.

            But good work Edip bravo

                yes if you are debating with him/her alone. But i would encourage public debates like what edip do not for the sake of the salafi but because creates focus on quran alone among common people who might get familiar with the point of view of quran aloners

                    Another point I picked up on was when the salafi brother mentioned that the book on eating is the same size as the Qur'an. WOW. No wonder I don't know a single Sunni/Salafi muslim who reads the Qur'an a lot, if they need to read a book the same size just to find out how to eat. (The references to the Qur'an posted on this forum make clear that the Qur'an is the only source of religious instruction needed, the hadith will/have lead people astray, and only the pure read the Qur'an often)

                    Peace Steven,

                    I liked your entire post, but the above part stood out to me. Most of them don't even read the Qur'an, and if they do, they tend to read it blindly, not really getting anything out of it. The hadith and rituals are so distracting...no wonder they have no time to read it. Now that I have stopped following those things, I have plenty of time (and desire) to read my Qu'ran. )

                      you want to see the size of the book on water to wash with!

                      Anyway, just watching this and done the first hour so far. The salafi guys body language is fun to watch but he's just claimed he had no idea what Edip was talking about as it was all rubbish, made perfect sense to me! salafi man doesn't seem to have a clue what he's talking about and less clue what's in Quran!! rotfl

                          You are so on point!! Just this morning I thought about that...I don't have any doubt in the word of the Prophet...I doubt the sources who claim that he said it. )

                                Yes, I have had much experience of this phenomenon in hadithists, it's like you might as well be telling them to follow the devil if you quote Quran at them and they react like I am some sort of satanic messenger! hypno

                                The blockage though is that they cannot understand that I'm not dissing the prophet as they can't get past that the hadith are NOT from him. They assume I'm saying you need nothing but Quran because I DON'T want to follow the messenger, they can't understand that I AM. They prefer to think God's messenger a pedophile, a murderer, a torturer who forced a new law onto us that we can be whipped and burnt for if we don't follow......such as the burning them in their homes for not hurrying to prayer.......and so many have never even heard that hadith. They can't see that if they want to follow the prophet's sunnah its in Quran anyway. brickwall

                                  So right! As per my experience, Mohammed is everything for them far more than Allah. When I quoted them aayaats, they say, no, we cannot accept it because hadith say otherwise. & It was so scary for me and it was nothing for them.

                                  And I totally agree with you with that satanic messenger thing.

                                    Apparently now I should guard my iman as I am following an unbeliever...........or maybe the warning was to others against listening to me the unbeliever.... rotfl

                                      It is sad how almost all of you are fast to mock others and their belief. I don't have to remind you that those people you mock are the people who believe that there is no God, but God. What you do here is so unQuranic. &

                                          It is sad how almost all of you are fast to mock others and their belief. I don't have to remind you that those people you mock are the people who believe that there is no God, but God. What you do here is so unQuranic. &

                                          Salaam Shila,

                                          Please correct the highlighted part above.

                                          We are not doing anything unQuranic inshaAllah. We are sharing our experience that we had. As per my experience many believe as

                                          "the people who believe that there is no God, but Mohammed but say that there is no God, but God".

                                          Believe me, this is my personal experiences I have faced many times. They never even have respect for Allah compare to Mohammed.

                                          May Allah protect us from all kind of shirks and guide us to His only single path pr
