What is Islam?
-
Salam nonplus,
I know and I'm rejecting unjust hadith (refer here).
However, Allah prohibits us to deny what justly balanced (for example, 7738-50 above).
To reject what is justly balanced on sectarian basis, is no difference than to be a sectarian itself.
It is a religion of Islam, and not a deen of Islam.
Therefore, can you give me an ayat that Allah prohibit us to follow what is justly balanced?
Can you give me an ayat where Allah command us to reject signs not in the Qur'an?
Peace brother.
hadith != "signs not in the Qur'an"
Furthermore, you seem to attach context to many things and somehow make it not apply to you.
When God asks, rhetorically, "which hadith do you believe in?" It applies to any and everyone, not just the "non believers of judgement day". How quickly you limited the scope of that!
Anyway, I get that I'm new here and this seems to be your thread so I'll refrain from commenting further.

Salam nonplus,
Therefore, can you give me an ayat that Allah prohibit us to follow what is justly balanced?
Can you give me an ayat where Allah command us to reject signs not in the Qur'an?Why can't you answer my simple questions and relying on the fallacy of generalization to make your points?
Do you have ayats to support your conclusion?
Do you really believe in the Qur'an or it is just your assumption?Furthermore, you seem to attach context to many things and somehow make it not apply to you.
The difference is between the context what is justly balanced and what is not. You are referring to something that might have the element of justly balanced as unjust. You generalized the issue, as what religious people do, a sectarian. Therefore, you need to give me an authority for your conclusion, an ayat from the Qur'an.
hadith != "signs not in the Qur'an"
Have you ever read all the hadith, what is its story?
Is it all unjust and not related to the signs in the Qur'an? (refer here)
Prove it! That everything in a hadith is unjust, and your ibada (salat, fast, zakah, sadaqah, marriage, hajj and even the Qur'an translation etc) is free from any reference to the hadith.
It sounds silly and ridiculous, right?
When God asks, rhetorically, "which hadith do you believe in?" It applies to any and everyone, not just the "non believers of judgement day". How quickly you limited the scope of that!
I already give you my reason and show how one can distort Allah's words to fit their religious purpose.
Do you have ayats to counter my conclusion?
The risk of reading ayat out of its true meaning or context..
Do you covet
that they would believe for you
while a party of them used to hear the words of Allah
and then distort the Torah after they had understood it
while they were knowing?
(275)Rather, they have denied that which they encompass not in knowledge
and whose interpretation has not yet come to them
Thus did those before them deny
Then observe how was the end of the wrongdoers
(1039) -
I believe Islam isn't a religion, but a submission to God. Thus, many people may be muslims without ''knowing it''. )
Peace
Salam Maha,
There is some truth in it and many not among the Muslim might be the Believers, and no one knows Allah's plan; Allah said, "Indeed, I know that which you do not know." (230).
Expect the unexpected. )
For Muslim, we just need to focus on our mission .. obedience and human unity.
To each of you We prescribed a law and a method <- Other rules are also from Allah? Good? Bad?
Had Allah willed, He would have made you one nation <- Allah refers to "nation"
but to test you in what He has given you <- What is the test from Allah? Rejection?
so race to good <- Allah considers there is good from another book or sect etc.?
To Allah is your return all together
and He will inform you concerning that over which you used to differ <- Who'll inform? You?
(548) What is our mission?Peace.

Salam jhonsonmustafa,
I believe you are reading the ayat out of its context and its true meaning.
RED Can you please explain verse 7750?
This is the Day of Judgement
We will have assembled you and the former peoples
So if you have a plan, then plan against Me
Woe, that Day, to the deniers
Indeed, the righteous will be among shades and springs
And fruits from whatever they desire
, "Eat and drink in satisfaction for what you used to do"
Indeed, We thus reward the doers of good.
Woe, that Day, to the deniers
, eat and enjoy yourselves a little
indeed, you are criminals
Woe, that Day, to the deniers
And when it is said to them, "Bow," (ir'kaū they do not bow
Woe, that Day, to the deniers
Then in what statement after the Qur'an will they believe? <- relating to those who deny the
(7738-50) Day of Judgement? Doing good?ir'ka
= Ra-Kaf-Ayn = bowed, bent, incline, humility, humble yourself, lower the head, fell upon his face, stumbled.And I don't understand why are referring to 22.
This is the Book about which there is no doubt
a guidance for those conscious of Allah
(22)Where did Allah say it is shirk to follow what is justly balance?
Where did Allah command us to reject signs not in the Qur'an?
The risk of reading ayat out of its true meaning or context..

(275)Peace brother.
Salam Brother,
leave alone 7750 what about 22. When Allah says this is the Book, Then all the books right from schools to rocket science including hadith belongs to dust bin in front of Allah.Allah says "Can you bring 10 Chapters like this?. All the men and Jinn put together". I dont remeber the Ayath No.

Okay.
what about 22. When Allah says this is the Book, Then all the books right from schools to rocket science including hadith belongs to dust bin in front of Allah.
Allah says "Can you bring 10 Chapters like this?. All the men and Jinn put together". I dont remeber the Ayath No.
I already asked you this question.
What about 22?
What's it got to do with Allah prohibit us to follow what is justly balanced to humanity?
And I don't understand why are referring to 22.

Religion of Islam vs. Deen of Islam
Allah prohibits us to deny what justly balanced (for example, 7738-50 above).
To reject what is justly balanced on sectarian basis, is no difference than to be a sectarian itself.
It is a religion of Islam, and not a deen of Islam.
The difference is between the context what is justly balanced and what is not. You are referring to something that might have the element of justly balanced as unjust. You generalized the issue, as what religious people do, a sectarian. Therefore, you need to give me an authority for your conclusion, an ayat from the Qur'an.
Please look at the actual content..
The real issue is whether it is justly balanced to humanity?
and this is the Deen of Islam.
Do not generalize (fallacy of generalization) and view the matter on a sectarian's perspective.. Quranism, Sunni, Shia, Hadither, Wahhabbism, Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism etc. This is religious perspective, a religion.
It doesn't matter if you label yourself as Quranism or Qur'an Alone or whatever it is.
It is still a sectarian, a religion.
It is not the Deen of Islam.
Peace brother.

Peace brother,
Islam is not a religion. It is a way of life.
Salam Sabina
If it is so, then don't just say it. Live Islam as your way of life, and not as a religion.
Don't make it as a religion and opposing or against what is justly balanced to humanity (reality), whatever their religion or "label" (illusion).
Decide from the perspective of justly balanced to humanity (descendants of Adam), and not on the basis of any sectarian's perspective or fallacy of generalization (religion).
Peace.

Hasty generalization
Hadith/Sunna/Shia/Christian/Buddha etc is true for A (unjust).
Hadith/Sunna/Shia/Christian/Buddha etc is true for B (unjust).
Hadith/Sunna/Shia/Christian/Buddha etc is true for C (unjust).
Hadith/Sunna/Shia/Christian/Buddha etc is true for D (unjust).Therefore...
Hadith/Sunna/Shia/Christian/Buddha etc is true for
E (way of life - deen)
F (way of life - deen)
G (way of life - deen), etc.and..
What about that is justly balanced in the Hadith/Sunna/Shia/Christian/Buddha etc ?
Should we oppose or against these elements?
In certain aspects, we are also no difference to them.
This is religion, and not the Deen of Islam (way of life - justly balanced).
-
Salam Brother,
Allah will guide him who wills towards the straight path.
Salam Sabina
That is not related to our issue (another fallacy), and I hope it does not mean we should oppose or against what is justly balanced to the humanity on a sectarian's perspective or fallacy of generalization (religion).
Peace.

Allah said...
And who believe in what has been revealed to you
and what was revealed before you
and of the Hereafter they are certain
(22)and, why Prophet Muhammad was not a Jew or Christian?
It is the religion relating to the Books of Allah, and the Books which are confirmed by the Qur'an.
Ibrahim was not a Jew <- Ibrahim has no religion. So as Muhammad, not a Jew/Christian (religion).
nor a Christian http//api.ning.com/files/uGCxg7sZSOsBbNwvSUN0m6uFBP5OUvR7e-3lYPcnfzzdki1NKdfBKi*MBEzKhhqFLbCaNgzbOCTwHTwBFp0cz3nyqUP-l7F1/arrowDownSmall.png
but he was (an) upright (man) <- showing a great concern for what is right, fair and truthful way
a Muslim <- defined by the above ayat - an upright man - obedience and justly balanced.
and he was not one of the polytheists <- Concern with right/wrong in religious matters - 3030-32Most surely the nearest of people to Ibrahim
are those
who followed him
and this Prophet
and those who believe
and Allah is the guardian of the believers
(367-68)And whoever seeks a "dnan" (ا other than Islam
it will NEVER be accepted of him
and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers

O you who have believed
fear Allah as He should be feared
and DO NOT die
except as Muslims
And hold firmly
to the rope of Allah
all together
and DO NOT become divided <- unity
(3102-103)And let there be from you
a nation
inviting to good <- justly balanced; cf. Allah say "good", then "right" or "wrong"
enjoining what is right <- just
and forbidding what is wrong <- unjust
and those will be the successful
And do not be like the ones
who became divided
and differed
after the clear proofs had come to them <- religion (3030-32); cf. (367-68)
And those will have a great punishment

This begs the question What is islam.. o
And no - it is not a RELIGION. All religions are MAN MADE.
It's an judgement, attitude, which after some time become a character.
The logic is very simple
Given
- God will always make His will a reality.
Thus
- Everything that happened is in accordance to His will
The question will be
- What's your say about anything that you're experiencing?
You can "Peacefully Accept" or "Un-Peacefully deny / reject"..
Denial is actually quite 'futile', given the fact above..
The Thread Starter got it right by mentioning the "Devil" / "Iblees" in the story of Adam.
His attitude shows "Denial"... which is actually quite useless / futile..
As thus he's not a muslim..Let's take a simple example..
The organization that you're working in, decided to promote your colleague to become your new boss. You feel (as everybody else) that you're the one who should earn the promotion and become 'the boss', because you feel that you're better than him.
So herewith your option
-
You can reject him as the new boss, which is quite futile, since it's not you who own the place, and you shall experience negative emotion of resentment and anger.. and in turn might entice your wish for 'revenge'..
-
You can gladly accept him as the new boss, which shall save you from the suffering of all negative emotion..
And of course the organization will not accept any other attitude from his worker except to follow and accept the decision. (385)
Salam / Peace
