    Peace runninglikezebras.

    Please do not take my general comments as "personal".

    I was commenting in general terms.

    I do not know your thoughts/intentions... I would not make a comment about you .

    Sorry if you thought I did.

    Brother, try and take my posts as comments/discussion about Qoran and its message. Nothing personal to anyone.
    Thank you.
    GOD bless you.
    Peace.

      On topic Abraham was asked to sacrifice one of his sons. Musa killed a man and was forgiven. So I don't understand your comment at all.

        Peace runninglikezebras.

        Abraham saw in a dream, Moses was trying to defend someone. None of them were "asked" to kill.

        GOD bless you.
        Peace.

          I don't think that was a dream but a vision from God. Instructing Abraham to do so. This can you can know from the fact that God confirms it as his trial for Abraham.

          Indeed, ACC ? accusative particle

          (371062)
          hdh
          this DEM ? masculine singular demonstrative pronoun

          (371063)
          lahuwa
          (was) surely EMPH ? emphatic prefix lm
          PRON ? 3rd person masculine singular personal pronoun

          (371064)
          l-balu
          the trial N ? nominative masculine noun

          (371065)
          l-mubnu
          clear.

          Musa most did so on his own initiative but was forgiven for it. Just to illustrate you can't just equal murder with "sin" or being "unguided".

          More proof? http//corpus.quran.com/wordbyword.jsp?chapter=2&verse=191#(21911) Oppression is worse than killing

            Good logic, perseverance is the only way to knowledge and hence the truth.

            There is not a deity at all. A concept of deity implies an entity which has to have a separate existence. This is the concept used by religious institutes to mislead humans into worship of imaginary gods.

            However, Quranic concept of this universe is as unified "one whole", which Quran calls concept of Rabb, the foundation of all. Everything is part of this one whole. Therefore, humans are called "Abdulallhi", Rabb's bondsmen. This can?t be a correct concept unless it was one whole to being with.

            Quran is a paradigm changer book. Its concepts demolish all religions no exceptions. It can create a human society based upon bondsmenship without divisions.

            Regards,

              Peace bkanwar.
              Thank you for your reply.
              Keep persevering.

              Peace runninglikezebras.

              1-Would you agree that Abraham saw in a dream... i.e GOD did not ask/order/command/instruct...

              2- GOD confirmed it was a trial. We are tried by various means including.our ego.others,a dream...

              3- GOD saved Abraham from carrying out his dream.

              4- Notice how GOD has not asked Abraham to do anything. Abraham decided by himself /assumed /believed his dream... GOD was not involved to start with, GOD was not even mentioned in that verse about seeing the dream. GOD did the rescue bit for Abraham because he was a true devoted servant.

              GOD bless.
              Peace.

                1. Dream yes, still an instruction from God (aka vision)
                2. Sure but God tested Abraham by trial of a command to sacrifice his son.
                3. Yes. God says he fulfilled the vision/dream.
                4. He did command Abraham, see 1. The dream was from God, if the trial was from God, so was the dream.

                But I'm sure you are unable to see things like this. It doesn't matter.

                  Peace runninglike zebras.

                  We are going off topic here.

                  1-How can a dream be an instruction from GOD? Where does it say dreams are instructions from GOD?
                  Qoran evidence is required!

                  2- GOD does not test anyone by asking them to break the commandments.Again you are assuming GOD was testing Abraham. The verse simply says Abraham saw in a dream!!!! It seems Abraham thought GOD was testing him.There is a big difference.

                  Once more, GOD does not advocate sin.

                  Please open a new thread if you wish to carry on with this conversation.
                  GOD bless you.
                  Peace.

                    No thanks. Let's just drop it here and say you have an interpretation of Abrahams trial that one will only find with (ex-)sectarians.

                      Peace good logic,

                      Emphasis is mine

                      2- GOD confirmed it was a trial. We are tried by various means including.our ego.others,a dream...

                      bravo bravo bravo

                      This has been discussed multiple times on this forum.

                      My personal opinion The dream was a channeling from the NEGATIVE 5th DENSITY ENTITIES (shayateen of jinn) from the Orion Constellation and a POSITIVE WAHI prevented Abraham from committing a murder.

                      6112 And as such, we have permitted the enemies of every prophet - shayateen of mankind and jinn - to inspire each other with fancy words in order to deceive. Had your lord willed, they would not have done it. You shall disregard them and their fabrications.

                      Peace
