    You used to be the Quran Alone follower,

    I'm not Quran Alone follower anymore

    In the past, I was a Sunni and ever join it's organization and study together.
    Now I'm just feel sorry for why I leave hadith at that time.

    therefore which ayat from the Quran ?

    No ayats asked to kill the disbeliever except if they do something bad in Islam
    Such like Baqarah 190-191.

      No problem, we are discussing the Principle of Islamic Jurisprudence and the authority I gave is used in the Islamic Universities. . .

      No ayats asked to kill the disbeliever except if they do something bad in Islam
      Such like Baqarah 190-191.

      You said no ayat to support the killing of the disbeliever. . .

      Therefore, why did you support such action ? Do you believe the Quran ?

      Ahmadiya deserved it, because their mockery toward God's teaching.
      The purpose of punishment is to prevent Ahmadiya, before they go further for corrupting GOD's teaching.
      This is the hadith said.

      Murtad and raddad according to hadith, the punishment is death sentence.

      What they did ?
      Christian and all religions are also mocking God's teaching . .
      Therefore, did they killed people ?

        Can you provide the article/book about this

        The ayats was used for Mohammed, then as ordinary people we need his example to understand the ayats.
        Muhammad is moobalegh, the living example for implementation of Quranic verses

        Do you believe the Quran ?

        Do you believe Allah ?

        Yes

          Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence by M. H. Kamali (page 58-59)

          The ayats was used for Mohammed, then as ordinary people we need his example to understand the ayats.
          Muhammad is moobalegh, the living example for implementation of Quranic verses

          You are repeating again, I said "FIRST STAGE" is the Quran . . .

          Just a simple word from the Quran, "kill alll disbelievers". . can you refer that kind of ayat ?

          Yes

          Do you believe in this ayat ?

          There shall be no compulsion in the religion. 2.256

          And had your Lord willed, those on earth would have believed - all of them entirely.
          Then, , would you compel the people in order that they become believers?
          And it is not for a soul to believe except by permission of Allah
          and He will place defilement upon those who will not use reason
          1099-100

          So remind, ; you are only a reminder.
          You are not over them a controller.
          However, he who turns away and disbelieves -
          Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment.
          Indeed, to Us is their return.
          Then indeed, upon Us is their account.
          8821-26

                For Javalatte

                Yes, because it hath already been translated and formatted by ahlul hadith.

                I suppose that is why it is also mistranslated and/or misinterpreted all too often (refer to wife beating or things I have printed out in my thread 'Nearness and Guidance' such as the analysis of the word 'ketab&#039. People calling themselves Arabic scholars know less than me; an ultimate amateur but applying reason and logic while treating the discourse more of a "code" and without any external bias, and hence by comparing the occurrences of words in all contexts of the narration (where I have discovered that most words so far have nearly exactly the same meaning in all occurrences, particularly words with two or more syllables). Arabic is very different from English, but when you study it from literary point of view then the principle is still the same. I only see danger in interpreting the recitation by Muhammad by using other hearsay as you include the bias of a lot of people and it might involve delusive ones and it is the same problem that the Jews had after Moses when they wrote a lot of hearsay and upheld that conjecture. By the risk of being bold to say so, but "hadith" adds a lot of conjecture to the system of God and follows the same story of the past. They author the decree (ketab) by their own and associate it with God and only conjecture.

                Do you still wish to uphold such a system then go ahead and do so, but I fear for you a difficult day in the future. You will carry the lies as a burden and see the Truth in your face and feel humiliated. And this I wrote only as a warning from the almighty that I feel sorry for you.

                See that God's decree is very easy to learn and uphold, would you not see the Truth? It is interesting that humans always want to complicate the system while God is making it (relatively) easy to follow.

                A tip from me; read all the narrations with previous messengers (before the one who received inspiration for the recitation) and see what mission they came with. See that they preached "Believe in God alone, associate nothing with Him and do good deeds". Why in the world would you think that the decree was any different at the advent of the recitation by Muhammad? Would God be a pain in the behind just as the recitation was revealed to the Arabic tribes while the message was ultimately simple before that?

                Most of the time there are unrighteous teachings seemingly there to mislead by people who authored the decree with their own hands. The history repeated itself as the same thing happened with the teachings of Moses (Jewish hearsay, Tanakh), and is happening after Muhammad (Bukhari & co) and it happened after Jesus (ex. Paul's nonsense). The funny thing is that no one realizes this and it just happens over and over again and yet God narrates that this is a recurring scenario. All that is nonsense, and extra-religious teachings; the Jews have like 603 different religious laws which are attacked in the narration of God which was inspired to the fallible man Muhammad. Prior to all the hearsay by the Jews they had like one or two A4 papers of rules (estimation) but they caused it to become a whole book with nonsensical rules. Most of the original rules were covered by the famous 'ten commandments' which are actually quite obvious for a reverent believer and people like Abraham before that time already attended to this kind of system (deen). The recitation even mentions the "deen of Abraham". And what is the deen of Abraham? Belief in God alone and being a good person, being a strict monotheist and not associating anyone with God, not even the missionaries of God that every now and then come around on Earth. Even then people make sons of God or patrons to God even if God said not to associate anyone with Him. It was taught already in the "Mosaic Law" not to do this, but people seem intentionally ignorant to this rule.

                God's decree is easy to grasp, do you not agree?

                Examples

                • Believe in God alone

                • No idols of any kind

                • Do not steal

                • Be good to your neighbors, your parents, relatives, brothers, sisters, wives, husbands and the list goes on

                • Do not murder

                • Do not be jealous

                • Keep the remembrance of God on a special day

                • Do not commit adultery

                • No false witness, (i.e. do not lie)

                • And never forget about God, your Lord

                I brought up seven of the above straight from memory without peeking. The rest are easily found in the revelation of Moses and in the revelation to the alleged Muhammad.

                Apart from that you are told not to eat pork or that there is equivalence in punishment among other things. Did I need any hadith books by Muhammad to grasp this? No, I needed only the small portion of the Bible (the revelation to Moses is contained within all the nonsensical hearsay) that is not corrupted and the recitation to Muhammad.

                Like was inspired to Muhammad let me tell you was God has really decreed for you 'Read the above'. Cast away all the conjecture and scatter out the Truth from the falsehood.

                It could be a matter of time until "hadith" books are bundled together with what you call Qur'an as the hearsay in the past was bundled with the teachings (torah of Moses). In ways they already are with sectarian Qur'an translations that are filled with conjecture based on their own wishful thinking. They have cast the decree behind their backs and pretending it is not there.

                The decree of the recitation to Muhammad is the true hadith just as the criteria was revealed to Moses in the past. You have to see the Truth through all the falsehood and it takes being true to your heart. See that the history repeats itself and people fall into the same trap as those before them without perceiving. They despise the Jews or Christians as polytheists while committing exactly the same mistake, and they only conjecture and come up with book after book of nonsensical writings that cause much animosity and hatred because the curse of God is upon the disbelievers. They will not have peace (Islam). As happened to those before them has happened to them and that without them knowing and they are unaware of the fate that is coming and the "reward" that God will have in stock for them.

                God is with those that do good and follow what God has decreed for them, and they know that from Him they have come, to Him they will return.

                Do you not see that the recitation to Muhammad (Qu'ran) says the exact same things while I write in English without copying the text? God's "pen" does never run out of ink.

                Open your eyes and turn back to the path after you had learned the Truth. I am not rambling or I am not following my own opinion because what I said is in the decree.

                May God bless you

                  Indeed.

                  Open your eyes and turn back to the path after you had learned the Truth.

                  Good advice, brother.

                  Peace.

                    Yes, because it hath already been translated and formatted by ahlul hadith.

                    Not all of the Qur'an interpretations were made by the people of hadith.

                    And beside, the interpretation from ahlul hadith may contain quite many erroneous translation that can mislead people.

                    Namun juga, saya rasa tidak masalah jika kita menggunakan berbagai macam jenis terjemahan/tafsir untuk dibandingkan satu sama lain dengan tujuan untuk dipelajari.

                    Saya sendiri saat ini lebih suka menggunakan Quranix dan corpus.quran.com, word by word

                    You simply play mockery against them, but used their work to support your faith

                    I want to support my faith by learning the translation made in righteous way, and not by using the distorted translation.

                    I also tend to believe that we should try to make our own rendition of Qur'an, actually.

                    I hope someday I can have enough time and capability to finish my own rendition/interpretation of the Qur'an.

                    Perhaps you will change your mind after reading this one

                    http//free-minds.org/forum/index.php?topic=9604387.0

                    Nope. I already know that brother mmkhan made it.

                    My position for the case/topic Was Muhammed name of a Prophet? is still NEUTRAL.

                    I still need to learn more deeply before decide to accept or reject it.

                    Moreover, I see that thread as something valuable to learn.

                    Apart of whether Muhammed is name of a Prophet or not, I do found some good lessons on the thread.

                    Such as, I agree with brother mmkhan about this,

                    If anyone says that diacritics are added later, I have some questions

                    • Why Allah did not sent down His message with diacritics, any possible reason?
                    • If diacritics are added later by humans, then why should I not doubt the Book of Allah?
                    • How can call it the Book of Allah when human interference is involved in it?
                    • As brother Noon has given examples , how do people understand what exactly Allah wanted to say? Hence, it could not be called the Book of guidance which confuses more.

                    and this.

                    Yes I do believe that the original alQuraan/alKitaab was in written form. yes


                    Ok. I guess I know who you really are Mr. David Saidi. >(

                    Come on, take off your mask, bro. police

                      Mankind was one single nation 2.213

                      Definition of Ijma (Consensus Of Opinion)

                      ?Consensus (Ijma?) is an expression of the agreement of the generality of those qualified to loosen and bind from the community of Muhammad all mankind in a particular age upon the ruling of a particular occurrence.?; Sayf al-Din al-Amidi (1233/631)

                      *strike and red is mine

                      The Quranic Ijma

                      Invite to the way of your Lord
                      with wisdom
                      and good instruction
                      and argue with them in a way that is best
                      Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who has strayed from His way
                      and He is most knowing of who is guided
                      16.125

                      So to that invite (them to human unity)
                      and remain on a right course as you are commanded
                      and do not follow their inclinations (for sectarianism, bigotism, religionism)
                      but say,
                      "I have believed in what Allah has revealed of the Qur'an <- Ijma - Consensus of opinions
                      and I have been commanded to do justice among you
                      Allah is our Lord and your Lord
                      For us are our deeds, and for you your deeds
                      There is no argument between us and you <- Ijma - Consensus of opinions
                      Allah will bring us together
                      and to Him is the destination."
                      42.15

                      Therefore . . . the system for human unity

                      1. Quran ( earth)
                      2. Hadith (ie. scholars research and development) ( fire)
                      3. Ijma (Consensus Of Opinion, for human unity) ( water)

                      Consensus of opinion between the Quran and . . .

                      1. Madhab & hadithers

                      2. Religion & sacred texts/books (rules which are similar with the Quran)

                      3. Qiyas, analogical reasoning for consensus of opinion, for human unity. ( air)

                      Analogical reasoning between the Quran and . . .

                      1. Religion & sacred texts/books (rules which are not similar with the Quran)

                      2. Rule of law - ie. below are those that are not based on sacred texts.

                      3. Tradition

                      4. etc. . .

                      5. Ijtihad (critical thinking) and others. . .etc, for consensus of opinions, for human unity.

                      The Sectarian Ijma

                      Ijma (Consensus Of Opinion) . . .

                      Consensus of opinion between the Quran and . . .

                      1. Madhab & hadithers <- I'm right, I'm special, I'm unique, I, I, I . . they are all wrong!!
                      2. Religion & sacred texts/books <- I'm right, I'm special, I'm unique, I, I, I . . they are all wrong!!
                      3. Rule of law <- I'm right, I'm special, I'm unique, I, I, I . . they are all wrong!!
                      4. Tradition <- I'm right, I'm special, I'm unique, I, I, I . . they are all wrong!!
                      5. etc. . . <- I'm right, I'm special, I'm unique, I, I, I . . they are all wrong!!

                      ie. shirk and god inside ourselves

                      no consensus ! You have your way. I have my way . . .
                      Bigot, ByGod . .by what God/god ? Allah only ! Sunni (god) only ! Shia (god) only ! Jesus (god) only ! etc. .
                      becoming a weak nation . . getting smaller and smaller . .

                      Ignominy shall be their portion
                      wheresoever they are found
                      save (where they grasp)

                      Scholarly Consensus Ijm - Between Use & Misuse

                      This study aims to examine unanimous consensus (ijma?) from the Sunni paradigm while searching for a truly objective criterion for discerning authentic and original teachings of faith in the Islamic tradition.

                      The unfortunate reality is that while unanimous consensus can serve as a unifying factor, it can and has been used constantly as a tool to suppress dissenting opinion even when that dissenting view has been, at times, legitimate. The suggestion, here, is not that every lay Muslim should feel free to follow any aberrant or minority opinion he/she discovers exists. Rather, it is merely that some minority views are valid, and critical scholars of our time have been given the capacity to determine how and when it is appropriate to adopt those opinions.

                      Laypeople, however, should allow conscience and humility to direct their decisions to adopt or avoid minority views so as to safeguard one?s faith from being steered by personal fancy. One should also be sure to suspend definitive judgement on any point of dispute even if it is something that one inclines toward, particularly to avoid violent dispute with others whose convictions may be just as strong.

                      Despite that, it is important to understand that if claims of unanimous consensus are suspect, it is quite possible for a Muslim to invent in his/her mind an understanding of Islam located in a realm of imagination and fantasy. On the other hand, if claims of unanimous consensus are valid and authoritative, the one who casts aspersion on such claims may be in danger of violating universal teachings of the religion of Islam.

                      So, how should one deal with claims of unanimous consensus?
                      What authority do such claims have?
                      If unanimous consensus is a fictitious principle,
                      what means do Muslims have at their disposal to identify the unshakable bedrocks of Islam?

                      It must be understood concretely before proceeding that the aim of this study is not to de-emphasize or devalue the importance and place of the doctrine of unanimous consensus (ijma?). The aim is, rather, to address its meaning and role, and to assess our understanding of it for the sake of greater unity. Too often in recent times, those advocating the doctrine of consensus attempt to browbeat some of the learned and unlearned into conformance with tendentious interpretations of ?genuine? Islamic ?tradition.?

                      This study commences upon the thesis that most historical claims of unanimous consensus are subjective and circumscribed by the parameters within which claimants define this concept.

                      It further proceeds upon the belief that the only decisively confirmable precepts of the Islamic tradition are found in its self-evident teachings known as ?al-ma?ruf min al-din bi al-darura? (i.e. matters known by immediate necessity). To be clear, this means that what is often ascribed to ?Islam? is nothing more than ?dominant? interpretation, while Islam and the Shariah are what the Prophet Muhammad  delivered to us prior to the appearance and development of the various schools of law and theology. Those schools, while basing their doctrines on references from the Qur?an and prophetic tradition, represent nevertheless interpretations of the revelation; not the revelation itself.

                      What we are not claiming is that unanimous consensus is a ?theoretical? impossibility nor that it is impermissible for one to claim unanimous consensus on a particular issue.It is merely that most claims of unanimous consensus lack the authority to make them religiously binding upon Muslims to accept; whereas the soundness of one?s faith is not mortally threatened by the contravention of those claims.

                        The Quran is analogous to the "Constitution", and the hadith is analogous to the "Statutory Law"
                        Before any Statutory Law is valid, there must be the main principle in the Constitution . .
                        This is equally true in the Principle of Islamic Jurisprudence and Usul Al Fiqh

                        The whole of ur arguments, this is your most main point.
                        I already read M H Kamali's works and I know the fact if you failed to understand his work.

                          Really ? Do you understand what you read and the issue of our discussion ?

                          I think you should read again, and again . . .
                          because you clearly still do not understand the subject, and the issue of our discussion . .

                          The Quran is analogous to the "Constitution", and the hadith is analogous to the "Statutory Law"
                          Before any Statutory Law is valid, there must be the main principle in the Constitution . .
                          This is equally true in the Principle of Islamic Jurisprudence and Usul Al Fiqh
                          Before any hadith etc is valid, there must be the main principle in the Quran . .

                          Therefore, where is the Ayat ?

                          This is the first stage to determine the legality of any action or rule of laws. . .

                          Where are the Verse and Chapter that allow such killings, oppressions and barbarianism ?

                          http//free-minds.org/forum/index.php?topic=9605723.msg349449#msg349449

                          and if you want to treat the hadith as explaining about the Quran
                          then "there must be a subject to be explained" by the hadith
                          the root of a tree . . the "sources of fiqh"

                          And if Muhammad had made up about Us some sayings,
                          We would have seized him by the right hand;
                          Then We would have cut from him the aorta.
                          6944-46

                          And when Our verses are recited to them as clear evidences,
                          those who do not expect the meeting with Us say,
                          "Bring us a Qur'an other than this or change it."
                          Say, , "It is not for me to change it on my own accord.
                          I only follow what is revealed to me.
                          Indeed I fear, if I should disobey my Lord, the punishment of a tremendous Day."
                          1015

                          Therefore the issue is . . . where is the subject to be explained by the hadith ?

                          You are repeating again, I said "FIRST STAGE" is the Quran . . .

                          Just a simple word from the Quran, "kill alll disbelievers". . can you refer that kind of ayat ?

                          and . . .

                          This is the first stage. . . before you are qualified to discuss the rules from the hadith, ijma, qiyas, ijtihad and fatwa etc.

                          Verse and Chapter that allowed such killings and oppressions ?

                          Don't fail at the first stage . . . laugh

                          . . . therefore, provide your reason

                          Ahmadiya deserved it, because their mockery toward God's teaching.
                          The purpose of punishment is to prevent Ahmadiya, before they go further for corrupting GOD's teaching.
                          This is the hadith said.

                          Murtad and raddad according to hadith, the punishment is death sentence.

                          What they did ?
                          Christian and all religions are also mocking God's teaching . .
                          Therefore, did they killed people ?

                          vs . . .

                          There shall be no compulsion in the religion. 2.256

                          And had your Lord willed, those on earth would have believed - all of them entirely.
                          Then, , would you compel the people in order that they become believers?
                          And it is not for a soul to believe except by permission of Allah
                          and He will place defilement upon those who will not use reason
                          1099-100

                          So remind, ; you are only a reminder.
                          You are not over them a controller.
                          However, he who turns away and disbelieves -
                          Then Allah will punish him with the greatest punishment.
                          Indeed, to Us is their return.
                          Then indeed, upon Us is their account.

                            Usul al-fiqh, or the roots of Islamic law, expound the indications and methods by which the rules of fiqh are deduced from their sources. These indications are found mainly in the Qur'an and Sunnah, which are the principal sources of the Shari'ah. The rules of fiqh are thus derived from the Qur'an and Sunnah in conformity with a body of principles and methods which are collectively known as usul al-fiqh. Some writers have described usul al-fiqh as the methodology of law, a description which is accurate but incomplete. Although the methods of interpretation and deduction are of primary concern to usul alfiqh, the latter is not exclusively devoted to methodology. To say that usul al-fiqh is the science of the sources and methodology of the law is accurate in the sense that the Qur?an and Sunnah constitute the sources as well as the subject matter to which the methodology of usul al-fiqh is applied. The Qur?an and Sunnah themselves, however, contain very little by way of methodology, but rather provide the indications from which the rules of Shari?ah can be deduced. The methodology of usul al-fiqh really refers to methods of reasoning such as analogy (qiyas), juristic preference (istihsan), presumption of continuity (istishab) and the rules of interpretation and deduction. These are designed to serve as an aid to the correct understanding of the sources and ijtihad.

                            To deduce the rules of fiqh from the indications that are provided in the sources is the expressed purpose of usul al-fiqh. Fiqh as such is the end product of usul al-fiqh; and yet the two are separate disciplines. The main difference between fiqh and usul al-fiqh is that the former is concerned with the knowledge of the detailed rules of Islamic law in its various branches, and the latter with the methods that are applied in the deduction of such rules from their sources. Fiqh, in other words, is the law itself whereas usul al-fiqh is the methodology of the law. The relationship between the two disciplines resembles that of the rules of grammar to a language, or of logic (mantiq) to philosophy. Usul al-fiqh in this sense provides standard criteria for the correct deduction of the rules of fiqh from the sources of Shari?ah. An adequate knowledge of fiqh necessitates close familiarity with its sources. This is borne out in the definition of fiqh, which is 'knowledge of the practical rules of Shari?ah acquired from the detailed evidence in the sources'. The knowledge of the rules of fiqh, in other words, must be acquired directly from the sources, a requirement which implies that the faqih must be in contact with the sources of fiqh. Consequently a person who learns the fiqh in isolation from its sources is not a faqih. The faqih must know not only the rule that misappropriating the property of others is forbidden but also the detailed evidence for it in the source, that is, the Qur?anic ayah (218 which provides 'Devour not each other's property in defiance of the law.' This is the detailed evidence, as opposed to saying merely that 'theft is forbidden in the Qur'an'.

                            Knowledge of the rules of interpretation is essential to the proper understanding of a legal text. Unless the text of the Qur?an or the Sunnah is correctly understood, no rules can be deduced from it, especially in cases where the text in question is not self-evident. Hence rules by which one is to distinguish a speculative text from the definitive, the manifest (zahir) from the explicit (nass), the general ('aam) from the specific (khaas), the literal (haqiqi) from the metaphorical (majazi) etc., and how to understand the implications (dalalat) of a given text are among the subjects which warrant attention in the study of usul al-fiqh. An adequate grasp of the methodology and rules of interpretation also ensures the proper use of human reasoning in a system of law which originates in divine revelation.

                            and what is the methodology ?

                            Therefore, give the authority from the Quran first, and then we go to hadith, ijma and qiyas etc. . .
                            You keep ignoring the issue, please refer to the usul al fiqh

                            Priority of the Quran over the Sunnah
                            A Sunnah is the second source of the Shari'ah next to the Qur'an,
                            the mujtahid is bound to observe an order of priority between the Qur'an and Sunnah.
                            Hence in his search for a solution to a particular problem,
                            the jurist must resort to the Sunnah ONLY WHEN he fails to find any guidance in the Qur'an.
                            Should there be a clear text in the Qur'an, it must be followed and be given priority over any ruling of the Sunnah
                            which may happen to be in conflict with the Qur'an
                            Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence; p.58 Second Revised Edition; Mohammad Hashim Kamali

                            And if Muhammad had made up about Us some sayings,
                            We would have seized him by the right hand;
                            Then We would have cut from him the aorta.
                            6944-46

                            And when Our verses are recited to them as clear evidences,
                            those who do not expect the meeting with Us say,
                            "Bring us a Qur'an other than this or change it."

                              Salaam

                              Yes I know our issue of our discussion

                              . . . therefore, provide your reason

                              http//www.youtube.com/watch?v=es-p5OHTSxk
                              http//www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHPvxCKofs4

                              The reason is in Quran n authentic hadith based on proper ijma, tafseer

                              16106 Whoever disbelieves in Allah after his belief... except for one who is forced while his heart is secure in faith. But those who open their breasts to disbelief, upon them is wrath from Allah , and for them is a great punishment;

                              From Abdullah bin Mas'ud ra, that the Messenger of Allah said

                              "It is not lawful blood of a Muslim who has testified that there is no god to worship except Allah and I am the Messenger of Allah, except in three of the following; someone who converted from Islam and left the jama'ah, people who are married but adultery and killing someone else. "(Shaheh Muslim)

                              From Ikrimah

                              "Some People of Zindeeq arrested and brought before Ali ra and Ali burnt them. The case was heard by Ibn Abbas, that he said If I do, will not burn them because there is a ban from the Holy Prophet said "Do not torment the punishment of Allah," and I still would have killed them according to the words of the Prophet "Who is change/ replacing his religion, kill him! "(Bukhari)

                              and etc

                              There shall be no compulsion in the religion. 2.256

                              And had your Lord willed, those on earth would have believed - all of them entirely.
                              Then, , would you compel the people in order that they become believers?

                              1099-100

                              So remind, ; you are only a reminder.
                              You are not over them a controller.
                              However, he who turns away and disbelieves -

                              I also told you many times, why u aren't used asbabun nuzul rather than speculations to intepret Quran

                              From MH Kamali's Islamic Jurisprudence page 45

                              Ignorance of the asbab al-nuzul may thus lead to the omission or misunderstanding of a part or even the whole of an
                              injunction. Secondly, ignorance of asbab al-nuzal may lead to unwarranted
                              disagreement and even conflict. For the Qur'an comprises passages which are in the nature of
                              probability (zahir) and ambiguity (mujmal). Such instances in the text can be clarified by reference to
                              the circumstances in which they were received

                                Yes I know our issue of our discussion

                                No you don't look at your answer.

                                . . .

                                The reason is in Quran n authentic hadith based on proper ijma, tafseer

                                16106 Whoever disbelieves in Allah after his belief... except for one who is forced while his heart is secure in faith. But those who open their breasts to disbelief, upon them is wrath from Allah , and for them is a great punishment;

                                Again. . you have repeatedly failed to give the authority for such public sentences. . .
                                And you refer me to irrelevant ayat . .and interpret the ayat without proper methodology
                                Read again carefully . . Allah said "wrath from Allah" . .
                                It follows the punishment is from Allah

                                The ayat is irrelevant unless you are assuming you are Allah. . .

                                So. . where is the ayat to allow for such punishment ?

                                http//www.youtube.com/watch?v=es-p5OHTSxk
                                http//www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHPvxCKofs4

                                . . .

                                The reason is in Quran n authentic hadith based on proper ijma, tafseer

                                I'm fine with the tafseer, as long it is not contradicting any rules from the Quran . .
                                Contradictorily, the ayat is irrelevant, a clear distortion of the issue . . .
                                and in which case, it is clearly contradicting many verses from the Quran, including those I've presented in here.

                                Therefore, bring me the ayat. . . prove it. . .

                                This is the first stage .

                                . . .

                                I also told you many times, why u aren't used asbabun nuzul rather than speculations to intepret Quran

                                Brother, first stage . . do you understand usul al fiqh ?

                                The methodology for Islamic Jurisprudence ? and . .

                                Why are you keep using circular reasoning ? resorting to lower source of law ?
                                It's going no where, unless you can start prove it from the Quran first . . . according to its priority . laugh
                                Quran first, then hadith . . ijma and qiyas etc.

                                You are repeating again, I said "FIRST STAGE" is the Quran . . .

                                Just a simple word from the Quran, "kill alll disbelievers". . can you refer that kind of ayat ?

                                Ahmadiya deserved it, because their mockery toward God's teaching.
                                The purpose of punishment is to prevent Ahmadiya, before they go further for corrupting GOD's teaching.
                                This is the hadith said.

                                Murtad and raddad according to hadith, the punishment is death sentence.

                                What they did ?
                                Christian and all religions are also mocking God's teaching . .
                                Therefore, did they killed people ?

                                  Therefore, give the authority from the Quran first, and then we go to hadith, ijma and qiyas etc. . .
                                  You keep ignoring the issue, please refer to the usul al fiqh

                                  Priority of the Quran over the Sunnah
                                  A Sunnah is the second source of the Shari'ah next to the Qur'an,
                                  the mujtahid is bound to observe an order of priority between the Qur'an and Sunnah.
                                  Hence in his search for a solution to a particular problem,
                                  the jurist must resort to the Sunnah ONLY WHEN he fails to find any guidance in the Qur'an.
                                  Should there be a clear text in the Qur'an, it must be followed and be given priority over any ruling of the Sunnah
                                  which may happen to be in conflict with the Qur'an
                                  Principles of Islamic Jurisprudence; p.58 Second Revised Edition; Mohammad Hashim Kamali

                                  You cited from MH KAmali's correctly but failed to understand it.

                                  Quranic verses contains qatli (decisive) but some of them have zanni (indecisive/speculative) characteristics
                                  To understand the zanni verses, hadith and tafseer are needed while the qatli verses mostly not

                                  The example of qathi (decisive) is like this
                                  If Quran said stealing is forbidden, then it's a decisive command.
                                  You don't need the sunnah to understand it.

                                  Example of zanni verses, I cited from same book page 31 ;

                                  'Prohibited to you are your mothers and
                                  your daughters' (al-Nisa 423). The text is definitive in regard to the prohibition of marriage with one?s
                                  mother and daughter and there is no disagreement on this point. However, the word banatukum ('your
                                  daughters&#039 could be taken for its literal meaning, which would be a female child born to a person either
                                  through marriage or through zina, or for its juridical meaning. In the latter sense 'banatukum' can only
                                  mean a legitimate daughter.

                                  To give another example of zanni in the Qur?an, we may refer to the phrase yunfaw min al-ard ('to be
                                  banished from the earth&#039 which occurs in sura al-Ma?idah (533). The phrase spells out the penalty for
                                  highway robbery (hirabah), or according to an alternative but similar interpretation, for waging war on
                                  the community and its legitimate leadership. Banishment (nafy) in this ayah can mean exile from the
                                  place the offence is committed in the first place. This is, in fact, the obvious meaning of the phrase, and
                                  the one which has been adopted by the majority of the ulema. But the Hanafi jurists maintain that the
                                  phrase means imprisonment, not exile. According to the Hanafis, a literal approach to the interpretation
                                  of this phrase does not prove to be satisfactory if one is to be literal, then how can one be banished
                                  from the face of the earth by any method but death? Nafy, or exile, on the other hand, is a penalty other
                                  than killing. Furthermore, if the offender is to be banished from one place to another within the Muslim
                                  territories, the harm is not likely to be prevented as he may commit further offences. The Hanafis have
                                  further argued that banishing a Muslim outside the territory of Islam is not legally permissible. The only
                                  proper meaning of the phrase which would achieve the Shari?ah purpose behind the penalty, is,
                                  therefore, imprisonment.

                                        Ahmadiya deserved it, because their mockery toward God's teaching.
                                        The purpose of punishment is to prevent Ahmadiya, before they go further for corrupting GOD's teaching.
                                        This is the hadith said.

                                        Murtad and raddad according to hadith, the punishment is death sentence.

                                        What they did ?
                                        Christian and all religions are also mocking God's teaching . .
                                        Therefore, did they killed people ?

                                          I don't understand what are you saying. . . rule relating to killing people is indecisive ? rotfl

                                          Quran is wahy to Muhammad and to understand it we need Muhammad's sunnah.

                                          From same book page 63

                                          the Sunnah may consist of rulings on which the Qur'an is silent, in which case the ruling in
                                          question originates in the Sunnah itself. This variety of Sunnah, referred to as al-Sunnah al-muassisah,
                                          or 'founding Sunnah', neither confirms nor opposes the Qur'an, and its contents cannot be traced back to
                                          the Holy Book.

                                          There are many hadith teaching which doesn't existed or explicitly written in the Quran, such like - Grave punishment

                                          • Laws regarding picture
                                          • Circumcision and etc

                                          Quran is wahy, general command to Muhammad and Muhammad was also blessed by Al-Hikmah (wisdom n knowledges).
                                          To follow the Al-Hikmah we need the hadith as the only records of Muhammad's example.

                                          How hard for you to show one ayat from the Quran ?

                                          I already show in my recent post, both frm Quran and hadith
                                          In where?? Search yourself
