    peace burhan, all,

    I somewhat agree with your take on it, so have incorporated the following statement on the homepage

    "Unfortunately, there is often a difference between what Muslims believe/practice and what The Quran actually says."

    Probably not as explicit as you'd like, but enough to make people aware there is a difference.

    In any case, two more misconceptions have been added, now making the total 50.

    All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

      Make it clear that you are indeed a critic of mainstream Islam and that you have been declared kafir by pretty much every prominent Islamic scholar because you reject hadith.

      the one who reject hadith = kafir according to them...

      thats why for s sunni muslim , shia is kaffir and jahanmi
      and for shia muslim , sunni is on wrong track...

      both mainstream schoolings of islam rejected eachother hadith and on that authroity they declared both of them kaffir... bravo

      and intrestingly with in the schooling of both of them there are sub groups rejectinng eachother hadith, self claimed fatwas and considered as kaffir by other group... like

      wahabi vs sunni
      deobandi vs wahabi
      deobanid vs sunni
      hanfi vs shafi
      malki vs humabli i can go with further with that list... anyways...

      i did not see any disclaimer/headings on their work and books...

      first of all when i ask the first question from all of them , they parrotly repeat the same thing...

      becoz you are not following the sunna , so you are kaffir...
      what is sunna= they dnt know
      what is kaffir = the one who reject sunna... hmm

      wakas add another misconception about islam..
      declaring kaffir somebody with self proclaimed fatwas... wiwthout knowing the defination of kaffir per God laws

                      The companion site to www.Misconceptions-About-Islam.com has just been updated and relaunched for the mobile era, Let me know your thoughts

                      Test your compatibility with the Quran
                      www.AreYouMuslim.com

                      Spread the word. I hope people realise the game changing potential of this site. It is a completely non-confrontational way to educate others about quran/islam. It's quick, simple, interesting, free and some have even said fun. Suitable for non-Muslims as well as Muslims. Check out the "recommend this site" link at the top for more ideas about this. Over 50k people have taken the quiz so far and generated over a hundred posts on various forums/blogs etc.

                          Thank u for this reminder

                          Just a remark the violence of speech is also a reflection of impotence in action. In this tribal society one could not engage a violent action against one of their people... Until the alliance is broken with his expulsion from the city
