              peace,

              i have always wondered why there are more sunnis in this world than shias...

              arnold, you probably said sunni with capital letters really as a result of me asking you if you are a sunni or not D

              peace, rifat

                  peace arnold,

                  I never stopped listening to music (even though i didn't like music much when i was a kid. mostly because to me, music was those bland indian songs which all sound the same. my parents listened to it, and still do. not that all indian movies are bad though). I always did feel guilty though, even when i was humming to myself. I felt like a hypocrite. And i know that every muslim does (because they are). that feeling is what messes up people a lot of times.

                    I usually let it slide a couple of times. I don't feel anything negative sis, I just don't want peeps to get confused.

                    As for myself I feel glad to be mistaken with you. Have you noticed that I never corrected that mistake!?

                    Thank you kindly, Taj.

                      That is why the hadith man-made laws are so evil, as they prohibit things that have no need to be forbidden. So a lot of people try to ignore them, but at the same time feel guilty as they believe they betray God. I'm teaching a lot of people in my country, and next to the headscarf, this is one of the most asked questions to me...is music halal?............

                        50% of the arguments I have with my dad, granddad and 'nosy control freak' uncle is about the headscarf >(.

                        As for Music my mum once broke one of my sisters CD player. These days I listen to a lot of Music and my mum is ALWAYS giving me a lecture. elektro

                        you must get a lot of criticism for preaching quran alone elektro
                        how do you handle with the pressure?

                            I had a discussion on music with a traditional Muslim, you can read it here

                            http//www.free-minds.org/forum/index.php?topic=705.15

                            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.

                                I've had a lot of discussions about music with sunnis online. One of the forums has banned any mention of the 'M-word' because of that. And it is one of the reasons i ended up on this site.

                                    no it's in al-quran...

                                    The example of Jesus, as far as GOD is concerned, is the same as that of Adam; He created him from dust, then said to him, "Be," and he was.

                                    The quran frequently refers us as the "children of Adam"

                                    O children of Adam, we have provided you with garments to cover your bodies, as well as for luxury. But the best garment is the garment of righteousness?.

                                    O children of Adam, do not let the devil dupe you as he did when he caused the eviction of your parents from Paradise, and the removal of their garments to expose their bodies. He and his tribe see you, while you do not see them?.

                                    O children of Adam, when messengers come to you from among you, and recite My revelations to you, those who take heed and lead a righteous life, will have nothing to fear, nor will they grieve.

                                    Did I not covenant with you, O Children of Adam, that you shall not worship the devil? That he is your most ardent enemy?

                                    I read that the evolution theory is applicable to certain creatures, according to RK's foot notes, he base his conclusion on 2919-20 but I can't say I agree with him on that.

                                    http//www.harunyahya.com/m_articles.php
                                    scroll down to the "Refutation of Darwinism" section

                                    i never read a hadith that banned music. where in the world they come up with these things? confused

                                    I've only come across one hadith my self that prohibited music. My granddad was told by his imam that any one who listons to music will have hot, melted metal in thier ears in the hereafter. I also heard that all four madhabs (Hanafi-based on work of Abu Hanifa, Maliki-founded by Malik, Shafi'i-founded by Shafi'i, a student of Malik and Hanbali-founded by Ahmad bin Hanbal, a student of Shafi'i) prohibited music.

                                      Peace,

                                      There is a big difference between Intelligent Design and Creationism of harun yahya. Evolution is based on blind chance, Intelligent design is based on small progress through guidance by an Intelligence(God). Harun Yahya claims are ignorant as his organisation ignores to may proves for slight adaptation. That this adpation is guided by Intellegence is not to be doubted at all. Harun yahya professes creation out of nothing, but that is based on Christian creationism theology and based on the Quran which tells us that He created us out of succesors and slight adaptation. I have studied Biochemistry for years and harun's claims are crap on this. The Quran does promote Intelligent Design, read this article

                                      http//rationalreality.50webs.com/evol.htm

                                      And this one

                                        To be honest i've never really paid much attention to the intelligent design vs evolution argument, it is an immensely boring, complex subject and i doubt it will help me progress much.

                                        a Christian guy i knew brought haruns articles to my attention since he started to believe in the evolution theory and believed the intelligent design argument is "garbage" coz he claims that there's much more scientific evidence to prove evolution. 'science' changes all the time so i don't waste much time studying it. )

                                        Haruns articles are just copied and pasted stuff, none of it is his own work, he aint even smart, Edip Yuksel wrote a highly controversial article about Harun and Harun sued him in a court in Turkey. >D

                                        Everyone I know seems to love harun yahya, his documentaries are always shown on the islam channel.

                                          If you knew this, why did you link to harun yahya's article? harun yahya has some good things on the site, but he himself is a fraud. Not all of the articles and books are frauds, a couple of years ago i had contact with the organisation to translate books for them and to be their contact in Holland. But to come on the intelligent Design issue, it has more scientific value then evolution, i studied it.
