    That's right. Enquirer has shown his true capabilities and he can never hide that

      Realized that MO is Modus Operandi after hitting the post button. Thank you CavemanDoctor.

      MQuran if you just pay little more attention what he posting and just refer to topics which I had suggested than you will know who he is actually. There is one more thing that you have to watch out new members and their modus operandi because I am expecting one more to come.

              If the quran is a book containing 'irrefutable' science,and is guidance for all times/today,then where are the verses on tv,test tube babies,internet,nuclear power,cloning,automobiles,genetically modified food,transistor radios,ipods,mobile phones,vcrs,electricity,carbon dating,etc,etc...?
              Your argument is not making sense...if it is a book containing 'irrefutable' science and guidance for all times why isn't a test tube baby in there? ??? The quran is a book containing facts. Whether it is about biology, geology, astronomy or psychology. It is also dynamic, in which there are layers that can be understood depending on the times that one is living in. What's the problem then? Just because the internet is not in the quran it means that the facts it does contain are somehow incorrect? If they are not incorrect then they are somehow outdated? That is why the only recourse is to prove that the facts in the quran are incorrect/outdated/irrelevant/illogical, not that it doesn't have ipods so it's hooey.

              As salamu alaykum.
              Respectfully.

              Actually, i have to correct you.
              No offence but Internet is in fact mentioned in the Qur'an.

              When Sulayman sent that bird to the queen in Saba and then afterwards he asked who among the present will birng him her throne, one of the jinns, i think (correct me if i wrong about anything) said he will bring it to him before he gets up.

              The other said that he'll bring it before he blinks. This is now important. See, in the blink of an eye. Get it? Today, we can "click" and get info from all over the world in the blink of an eye!

              I hope this helps.
              As salamu alakyum.

                Peace,

                The bird didn't bring any message to and from Sheba. The Hoepoe cannot fly long distances. Hudhud is arabic for Hadud, which was the ambassador of Solomon.

                Only the jinn, which refer to a leader in this verse, not an invisible creature, indeed used an expression that is the same as in a blink of an eye. That people take it serious that the jinn really could be that fast is sad to see.

                In the arabic it says that the person who knows the book/writting, which refers to the letters, brought her throne to Solomon. In the ancient times, a throne was a normal gift between kings and royals.

                  Ah I see! So the jinn had the internet operational at the time?

                    Respectfully.

                    I'm sorry if i misunderstood the story with Suleyman.
                    When the jinn said in the blink of an eye, i thought, literally, but if i am mistaken, i'm sorry.

                    As salamu alaykum.

                        As salamu alaykum.
                        Respectfully.

                        Here's a proof about CEREBRAL CORTEX

                        The Quran on the Cerebrum
                        Allah said in the Quran about one of the evil unbelievers who forbade the Prophet Muhammad from praying at the kaaba
                        "Let him beware! If he does not stop, We will take him by the Naseyah (front of the head), a lying, sinful Naseyah (front of the head)!"( Quran, 9615-16)
                        Why did the Quran describe the front of the head as being lying and sinful? Why didn't the Quran say that the person was lying and sinful? What is the relationship between the front of the head and lying and sinfulness?
                        If we look into the skull at the front of the head, we will find the prefrontal area of the cerebrum (see figure 12). What does physiology tell us about the function of this area? A book entitled Essentials o Anatomy & Physiology says about this area, "The motivation and the foresight to plan and initiate movements occur in the anterior portion of the frontal lobes, the prefrontal area.This is a region of association cortex..."' Also the book says, "In relation to its involvement in motivation, the prefrontal area is also thought to be the functional center for aggression...."
                        Figure 12 Functional regions of the left hemisphere of the cerebral cortex. The prefrontal area is located at the front of the cerebral cortex. (Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology, Seeley and others, p. 210.)
                        So, this area of the cerebrum is responsible for planning, motivating, and initiating good and sinful behavior, and is responsible for the telling of lies and the speaking of truth. Thus, it is proper to describe the front of the head as lying and sinful when someone lies or commits a sin, as the Quran said,"... A lying, sinful Naseyah (front of the head)!"
                        Scientists have only discovered these functions of the prefrontal area in the last sixty years, according to Professor Keith L. Moore.

                        As salamu alaykum.

                              Hey savage-carrot, why qur'an should mention about your little electronic pocket devices? you're not taking them with your grave, are you? Qur'an is a guidance for every human being, this life and after, and not just for 21st century, also since 1400 year's ago it was revealed so i dont understand how you came up with your apple toys? And yeah qur'an does quote some scientific information which are important to us to know about, not about how your iPhone will work, but how in future things you don't know about will bring people closer, and that was explained to people over thousand years ago which means whole technology system. Now the things you've been thinking of, why allah should mention that in qur'an anyway? Allah gave us brain to built such things in modern technology, did anyone ever thought of this? If allah wanted, could have make us brainless. People should think carefully how allah created human beings with brain they can use to discover so much

                                  Peace all. If the quran is a book containing 'irrefutable' science,and is guidance for all times/today,then where are the verses on tv,test tube babies,internet,nuclear power,cloning,automobiles,genetically modified food,transistor radios,ipods,mobile phones,vcrs,electricity,carbon dating,etc,etc...?
                                  This is very conclusive,irrefutable,provable,tangible,easily available,obvious mainstream technology,and cannot all be denied...
                                  Is the book incomplete,did god forget,or is there some other explanation...?
                                  Peace all.

                                  everything is mention,,, it depends on the level of understanding... at that age tecnology was just accessed by some next level Godly people and prophets,,,

                                  stated from moses staff,,,, a stick that make a barrier between the river.... even modern tecnology cannot ripped apart the flow of water,,, with their tecnology they can only make bridges...

                                  noah,,, the very first scientist of history he make a boat ,,, that flows on water...

                                  dhulqarnain,,,, a voyager who travels from one edge of world to another edge,,, and got some next level tecnologies to create a wall ,,,using some metal in it to make it strong,,, ( modern builiding system)...

                                  jesus christ,,, use some next level tecnology to treat the blind,,, unhealthy people,,, the one who clone and fill the spirirt in clone of birds,,,(by Allaz will) modern tecnolgy only can make tissues of body ,, with the help of our own tissues,,, but still unable to put a soul in it,,, far behind,,,

                                  david,,, the father of singing,,, with his voice the birds and mountains and air make a sound that comaptible with his voice... modern singers try to sing outdoor but ,,, the idea of all media and singing came from david,,,

                                  solomon,,, accoridng to the events that describe regarding solomon ,,, its easily understand that he got some next level internat tecnology in the form of porting physical things from one sie to another,,, ( modern science just allowed us to transfer images and words and voice in the shape of signals,,,, far behind from the tecnolgoy solomon acccessed,,,)...

                                  prophet muhammad..... time travelling,,, motions of galaxies ,,, expansion of space,,, all he observed in night journey...is it not enough.... untill einstien,,, theory of relativity,,, night journey was suppossed to be a fairy tale,,, but with the help of our understanding we just start unveling secrets...

                                  i have lot more to write but ,,, what tecnology ,,, what science,,, your science need to travel a looooooooooong journey to even understand the tecnology what prophets use,,,

                                  haha they are asking why modern tecnology is not mention,,, my brothers the tecnology which is mention in quran is far far greater than the modern tecnology u have today,,,

                                        Are you serious?

                                        ,, yeh i am serious,,, no point of joking,,,

                                        and some verses for people who have have brain to ponder,,,,,

                                        537 While he was at the highest horizon.
                                        538 Then he drew nearer by moving down.
                                        539 Until he became as near as two bowlengths
                                        or nearer.
                                        5310 He then conveyed the inspiration to His
                                        servant what was to be revealed.
                                        5311 The heart did not invent what it saw.
                                        5312 Do you doubt him in what he saw?
                                        5313 Indeed, he saw him in another descent.
                                        5314 At the ultimate point.
                                        5315 Near is the eternal Paradise.
                                        5316 The whole place was overwhelmed.
                                        5317 The eyes did not waver, nor go blind.
                                        5318 He has seen from the great signs of his
                                        Lord.

                                        the things i mention may b a tiny bit,,, about our own imagination,,,

                                        i you want to argue then make something that reach to that point,,, and there is no cure of jealousy which jews and christians have from muslims because they was thinking last prophet will come from them,,,,

                                        so if u think i m traditional muslim it will not change any fact...my brother,,,i am what i m,,, alhamdulliah,,, try to handle the envy it leads towards unsuccess... when i was describing the tecnology of other prophets no body claim anyting ,,, but as soon praised one (muhammad) name u listen u guys have something pain started somewhere probably in the head,,, God bless you all ,,,

                                          I would like to really know what you are sayin in this message or on others. The way you write, and the punctuation I never know who is speaking or about what.

                                          Salaam
