      i am sorry my original message might have come across as insulting to this forum. i wanted to catch the readers attention.

      you didn't have to say that.

      You should have mentioned your friend at the beginning ;D What you say about your friend is not something that will be ignored by the members peace

      handshake

      peace,

        I follow the Quran alone, but i focus on the things in common, so we can build bridges.

        To be honest your the only person I know with that view...

        Your just 17, of course you don't know much but this in my eyes the best way and also what the Quran preaches. Also i'm not scared to debate with them. The biggest mistake people make is to generalize and behave the same way to everybody as the extreme sunnis do, they act the same as the people they hate...

        I teach sunnis islamic history in the local mosque.

        confused

        what do you tell them?

        I-S-L-A-M-I-C H-I-S-T-O-R-Y ......i tell them the truth, no fairy stories.

        Peace

          peace

          could this be my friend?

          the reply was expected. you have just demonstrated my point. as you did not like what i wrote, you insulted my belief and laughed at me and ASSUMED I WAS A SUNNI!

          If you are not a sunni, how did anyone insult your beliefs?
          What are your beliefs anyway?
          And you can't expect to call the members of this forum a "cult" and expect them to like it.

          I personally don't hate sunnis. My family is sunni and I love them. I disagree with their beliefs but that doesn't mean i think they are "evil."
          You are the one doing the assuming.
          Stop blaming people of crimes you are committing.
          peace

            Peace,

            No it is that this person has the wrong definition of a cult. A cult has certain by which it can be called a cult, this forum misses those factors and cannot be called by missing those factors, this forum would fall under the definition think-tank.

              What your theological think-tank says Quran is Allah's Words because it says so, hence everything it mentions must be absolutely correct and all other information outside of it becomes moot? voodoo

                This is your observation which i don't agree with. Different views are allowed. And thank you for showing exactly what i mean this cannot be a cult.

                Peace

                  Danish we already have a thread for that. )

                  s in my eyes the best way and also what the Quran preaches. Also i'm not scared to debate with them. The biggest mistake people make is to generalize and behave the same way to everybody as the extreme sunnis do, they act the same as the people they hate...

                  i often generalize >

                  it's a bad habit i need to snap out of -X

                  the biggest mistake people make is to generalize

                  Your just 17, of course you don't know much

                  do you always contradict your self? ignore

                  most people do not do what you do, in fact most would disapprove, and i am talking from years of experience with "religious people"...

                  I-S-L-A-M-I-C H-I-S-T-O-R-Y ......i tell them the truth, no fairy stories.

                  so you tell them how hadith and sunnah distorted Islam? jedi bravo

                  i bet that goes down well! ;D

                  well your a very brave man. muscle

                  You won't catch me doing that in a Sunni Mosque!

                            Peace,

                            i believe this is a cult as the members are always bitter and have the same subject they hate- the sunnis!

                            This place might be a cult if you consider that people are perhaps bitter when it comes to the subject of setting-up partners with God and blaspheming His name/message...And they are happy and extatic when it comes to revearing the Almighty and studying His commands.

                            i know someone who uses this forum and i have seen this person change in ways i cannot understand.

                            this is a brief description of the change-

                            1. a lot of bitterness against sunnis
                            2. treating sunnis like they are less than human (calls them superficially nice, simple people but nasty to the core)
                            3. advocating and actively promoting what layth says in his articles (eg. hajj article)
                            4. advocating that sunnis are idol worshippers
                            5. sunnis cannot be included in the brotherhood of Islam
                            6. cutting off all relations with sunnis, even if they are siblings or immediate family members

                            To answer you question, your friend is correct that Sunnis are mushrikeen...This is a fact as long as they continue to reject God`s assertion that His book is complete and they set-up partners who give them laws to follow other than what God has revealed.

                            How your friend decides to deal with such people is upto him, as long as he maintains justice in all his dealings.

                            With regards to anything I have written or said here or elsewhere...It is my responsibility to present what I believe is true and correct with evidence...It is the responsibility of the reader to verify and question, never to simply accept.

                            P.S. You insult many people by claiming that this forum or website are representing my views (Layth`s site!)...This forum and site is a representation of the work of the many people who have written and who share their ideas.

                              To Andfutuna, you said that sugar assumed that you were a sunni, but you assumed that free-minds.org is a cult, why assuming at all!? )

                                peace Maria, nicely put

                                All these are forms and words. Each Idol has a form.

                                Cult, Sunni, Quran-only, God-only are all just words. A vibration going from one mouth to another ear! The ISSUE is the MESSAGE being conveyed and not what is the name of the conveyor. The real message passes through ear unto Mind and Then into HEART.

                                Wise said MOON IS UP THERE. DON,T stare at the finger!
                                Either we are able to convey the message or we are going to be absorbed in the fight of FORMS.

                                peace

                                  I would invite you to take a look around at all the threads. Pick a thread any thread - you'll find a miriad of opinions!
                                  You'll find some opposed and some in favor - and even those in favor have shades of differences.

                                  You'll see for yourself how instead of this being a cult (only one accepted way of thinking, and all follow the leader blindly) it is a free speech forum where all opinions are accepted, provided you respect others' dignity.
                                  peace

                                    Peace be upon you,

                                    i believe this is a cult as the members are always bitter and have the same subject they hate- the sunnis!

                                    Ok We hope that you will do with your beliefs that same that ALL MANKIND must do and take them to the testing grounds to ascertain if that "belief" is Knowledge or not because the God says that "we shall not go after that which we have no knowledge of" and tells us to ask "My Lord, increase me in knowledge/Knowing".

                                    Knowing and believeing are not the same. Believing ALWYAS mean you dont KNOW. Whehn you KNOW, you say, I KNOW, when you are not sure you say "I Believe", because you cannot reason it through.

                                    We respect your opinion, but here we must take all opinions to the open court and let the "throwing" commence.

                                      doesn't a cult have fixated rules about everything; That's the complete opposite of how it's like here, most people here have different views (which i feel is a good thing) Since most peoples' point(s) of view(s) are different. To me what's a great movie could be to you a horrible movie.
