    AL Araf
    Do not try to understand 63-1 without reading the proceeding verses.
    That is how I understand the verses

    Free-Minds Translation

    In the name of God, the Almighty, the Merciful.
    631 When the hypocrites come to you they say ?We bear witness that you are the messenger of God.? And God knows that you are His messenger, and God bears witness that the hypocrites are liars.
    632 They have chosen their oath as a deceit, thus they repel from the path of God. Miserable indeed is what they do.
    633 That is because they believed, then disbelieved. Hence, their hearts are sealed; they do not understand.
    634 And when you see them, you are impressed by their physical stature; and when they speak, you listen to their eloquence. They are like blocks of wood propped-up. They think that every call is intended for them. These are the enemies, so beware of them. May God condemn them; they have deviated.
    635 And if they are told ?Come and let the messenger of God ask for your forgiveness,? they turn aside their heads, and you see them walking away in pride.

    When reading the above, please note in 63-2, the word "Their Oath"; What was the Oath they Took in 63-1?
    It is "Nshadoo anak Rasool Allah" we bear witness that you are God Messenger.

    Moreover, 63-3, please note "They believed...then disbelieved"; What was their first act that implied their Believing? is it the first act of 63-1, the Shahada-Oath?
    Now, note if this People, the Hypocrites were in Love with Mohamed (as the Suni of today), why they walked away from him in 63-5. Is it because they do not mean what they said in verse 1?
    Thus, my case is proven that Testifying that the prophet is the Messenger of God was Common during the Prophet time, which was confirmed by 3-86.

    BelH

    You haven't proven nothing. You will only be able to prove your shirk shahaada if and only if you can show us one verse that says "I bear witness that there is not god but Allah and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah" and we are all still waiting for you to produce just one verse!

    Even in the Holy Qur'aan Prophet Muhammad when he was giving the Shahaada, he did not place his name within the same abode as Allah when he was addressing the mushrikiyna in Qur'aan 619

    Qur?aan 619
    Say, ?What thing is greatest as a testimony?? Say ?Allah is the Witness between me and you that this Qur?aan has been inspired to me so that I may warn you with it and whomever it reaches. Do you really bear witness that there are other gods besides Allah?? Say ?I do not bear witness.? Say ?He is only One Creator, and indeed, I am free of what you associate (with Him).?

    This is another verse for the Shahaada and you will not find Prophet Muhammad injecting his name in the Shahaada, he bears witness that the Creator is One. Below is the Arabic break down for this verse on the Shahaada

    http//i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd277/sayf22/Shahaada%2018/Ch6v19Arabicbreakdown.jpg

    http//i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd277/sayf22/Shahaada%2018/Shahaadadifferentforms.jpg

    Again notice that you will not see ?Muhammad an Rasuwl Allah? mentioned in the Shahaada found in Qur?aan 619. Notice in Qur?aan 619 Prophet Muhammad does not bear witness to their Shahaada of the mushrikiyna

    http//i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd277/sayf22/Shahaada%2018/IdonotbearwitnessCh6v19.jpg

    And Prophet Muhammad went on to say

    http//i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd277/sayf22/Shahaada%2018/OneCreatorQuraan6verse19.jpg

    And notice that when Muhammad said this to the mushrikiyna ?Say He is only One Creator?-HE (MUHAMMAD) DID NOT PUT HIS NAME IN THIS KALIMA OR SHAHAADA. You will never find Muhammad?s name in the Shahaada inside the Holy Qur?aan because that never was the Shahaada. By placing Muhammad?s name or any other Prophet for that matter in the same abode with Allah is binding partners, it is associating partners with Allah. Our Creator is Waahid (One) and Wahdau (Alone), there is only but one True Kalima, Shahaada, First Pillar of Faith, which all the Prophets taught

    LA ILAHA ILLA ALLAH

    The Muslims representing in this post who uphold Qur'aan alone have proven beyond doubt that the Shahaada bears Allah's name ALONE; We have proven in Qur'aan 318 that this is the Shahaada and we have proven in Qur'aan 619 that the Shahaada bears Allah's name alone and that Prophet Muhammad did NOT place his name in the Shahaada, so why are you going against Allah, The Qur'aan, Prophet Muhammad all because you believe in the Sunni's false, shirk, pagan, idol worshiop Shahaada which has no foundation in Al Qur'aan!

      Did anyone say That Mohamed is a Creator? Or did I say a Slave Creature who was chosen by our Creator to convey the Quran?

      I think when Mohamed name is Mentioned, many people have a panic attack rotfl He is a Slave and not God pr

        Peace Frida
        IT IS the Primary Issue.
        Please reread what you posted, which I know it is the Truth, and think for a moment...is what you wrote is what God Showed you in His Book? Thus, you said what you said because you are Obeying and Believing in One Guidance, God's Words. All fall under Obeying and Following His guidance.

        If you were living during Prophet Mohamed, what would you do if you believed He is a Prophet of God? Would you Testify and take the Oath to support Him? What will be the Arabic words that you will say to him? is it

        Salaam

        Primary issue is the faith in God, once you have strong belief it is only after that stage you develop devotion to serve God.
        Btw you have ignored other points I raise are you too scared to utter word Jihad. ???

        I think when Mohamed name is Mentioned, many people have a panic attack

        And I think when JIHAD is mentioned many more have panic attack &

          There is no panic attack but there is big time shuffling on your behalf. We have demonstrated that Allah did not put Muhammad's name in the Shahaada (31 and we have demonstrated that Muhammad himself did not put his name in the Shahaada (619) so who are you to put his (Muhammad's) name in the Shahaada! We are demanding the facts and you cannot produce just one verse to support your sunni fabricated shahaada which again has no bases in Al Qur'aan.

          The only true Shahaada bears Allah's name ALONE is consistent throughout the teachings of Al Qur'aan as seen below

          The Sunni Shahaada that you believe in is only found in satanic innovations called hadiyth which Allah has clearly condemned and this is why you can't find it in the Qur'aan

            I Got a Solution for you after taking the following facts into consideration
            There is only one God-Allah
            I Have to Worship Allah By Following His Guidences .
            God Guidence is The Quran
            The Quran was revealed and written By His Messenger Mohamed.
            Thus, To Worship Allah, I have to Obey the Book that Was Written By Mohamed.

            Here is the Solution
            The New Comer to Islam should say the Following "I Bear Witness that There is no God worth of Worshiping and Obeying except Allah...waits 15 minutes and say the Following "and to worship him, I have to follow the Guidence that was written by his True Messenger Mohamed, the Quidence of Al-Quran.

            Is that would solve Mohamedphobia Psychological problem?

                              Secondly please read verse 253 of chapter 2

                              These messengers; we blessed some of them more than others. For example, GOD spoke to one, and we raised some of them to higher ranks. And we gave Jesus, son of Mary, profound miracles and supported him with the Holy Spirit. Had GOD willed, their followers would not have fought with each other, after the clear proofs had come to them. Instead, they disputed among themselves; some of them believed, and some disbelieved. Had GOD willed, they would not have fought. Everything is in accordance with GOD's will

                              Peace Raj-ah

                              I want to clarify that the above verse is telling us that God is the one who can rank his prophets as He wishes; but the believers should not rank or favor any of them over the other, as God commanded us in Quran.
                              Peace

                                That is because the 5 prescribed salaat is in the Qur'aan and Tawhiyd has annhilated your 3 Salaat Theory from the roots on up....

                                http//www.freewebs.com/tawhiyd/3salaattheoryexposed.htm

                                According to wakas the majority under Progress Moslems believe that there is only 2 salaat and not 3 so who is right under this sect? But nevertheless both theories are refuted and holds no weight in Al Qur'aan.

                                  salam alkhidr. i read the article on the website.

                                  the website claims the following verses for identification of prayer times.
                                  2238, 11114, and 2458

                                  the times identified are tarfy anahar, wa zulfi min allayl; salat alfajr and salat alisha; alsalat alwusta.
                                  tarfy anahar is ends of the daytime. fajr is one end of daytime, isha is the other end of daytime. isha is zulfi min allayl.
                                  the other prayer identified is salat alwusta.

                                  one must be careful about confusing zikr, salat, and dua. a common error. zikr is speaking of the quran, salat is worship, dua is prayer. i have seen a very common error of people calling salat prayer, it is not prayer, dua is prayer. why? because when you ask allah for something, the act of asking is called a prayer. dua in arabic is asking allah for something, therefore dua is prayer. salat is worship.

                                  the only three worship times i see identified are (1) salat alfajr or the first tarfy anahar (2) salat alwusta or the middle prayer and, (3) salat al isha which is zulfi min al layl and the second tarfy anahar.

                                  therefore, with this information we have three worship times specifically identified as time of salat.

                                  allah is the one worthy of worship.

                                    Peace Raj-ah,
                                    It's not "shirk" to say that Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, and I never said it's shirk to state this.

                                    then brother what is the all fuss about!

                                    Ahmed Bilal

                                    So, you're using this verse to justify your idolization of Mohammed, by saying he's achieved a "higher rank" among the messengers? Maybe you haven't noticed, but Mohammed's name isn't even mentioned ANYWHERE in this verse at all. So, who raised Mohammed to this "high rank", YOU?

                                    This is a childish logic, "Muhammad's name or any one else's name is not included". How may times Muhammad's name has been included in Quran in total?, but we know that at many places Muhammad is meant and is the subject of the verses. I will provide deatailed answer to this while answering Mr.Behl.

                                    Ahmed Bilal

                                    This is wrong. No BELIEVER can deny that Mohammed is the messenger of Allah, and nobody is disputing this. Mohammed WAS a messenger of God. Abraham was also a messenger of Allah, and I'm sure he never recited a shahaada about Mohammed; but you obviously still don't understand this basic fact. If we practice Islam/Submission and monotheism, following the "Millat Ibraheem"/Religion of Abraham, that means the rites of our rituals are the same ones that Abraham practiced. This is even confirmed in the Torah, that Abraham's salaat, zakaat, hajj, and even wudhu are practiced by submitters today. So, why are you changing the testimony that applies to ALL submitters, the declaration that there is one supreme god and He is WAAHID, by adding a prophet's name to it? This is what makes it "shirk", and the fact that it is NOT included in the Quran is proof enough that it is a manmade innovation.

                                    What is wrong? Yes no believer can deny, so if one utters "Muhammad is Rasul of Allah" what is the problem there?
                                    Again you are going childish, Why Abraham or any other messenger before Muhammad had to recite "Muhammad Rasul Allah".
                                    At first you say it is not Shirk and at last you say it is Shirk! Boy boy you need help.

                                    If you bother I also gave reasons why the new Muslims had to recite Muhammad Rasul Allah at the time of prophet, but dear friend you riding on the horse of RK are not ready to read.

                                        Peace Raj-ah,

                                        This is a childish logic, "Muhammad's name or any one else's name is not included". How may times Muhammad's name has been included in Quran in total?, but we know that at many places Muhammad is meant and is the subject of the verses.

                                        I truly hope you're not serious... ) So, you're saying that even though the verse clearly only says, "La ilaaha ila Allah" (There is no god except Allah), it actually is IMPLIED that Muhammad's name is supposed to be there too, and even though it's not stated, it SHOULD also say, "Muhammad is the messenger of Allah"? You've gotta be kidding me, man. If the scripture meant to say, "Ash-hadu an Muhammad ar-rasuwlu Allah" as a second testimony after the testification of God's oneness, then IT WOULD SAY IT. Stop your foolish talk...

                                        What is wrong? Yes no believer can deny, so if one utters "Muhammad is Rasul of Allah" what is the problem there?
                                        Again you are going childish, Why Abraham or any other messenger before Muhammad had to recite "Muhammad Rasul Allah".

                                        Ummm... Okay... ) Obviously, you're the one who needs help, "boy boy". laugh I never said acknowledging that Muhammad was a messenger of Allah is shirk; if I did, point it out. What I said is adding Muhammad's name into a shahaada dedicated to God ALONE is shirk, and testifying to Muhammad's messengership is a manmade innovation not prescribed by Allah... And let's be serious, "boy boy". Do you actually believe that Abraham or Moses said, "Ash-hadu an Muhammad ar-rasuwlu Allah"? C'mon, man. Muhammad wasn't even born during their times! Please, stop the madness...

                                        You can quote me all you want, and believe whatever you want to believe, but your beliefs have no basis. After all this time, neither you nor Belalhammad have been able to show JUST ONE VERSE in the Quran that states your shirk shahaada. It's not in the Quran. So, where did you get it from? The hadith and sunna writings? A Sunnite masjid or website? WHERE DID YOU GET YOUR SHAHAADA FROM? It's definately not in the Quran, so you are speaking a manmade innovation of Islam, something not prescribed by God. And based on this, you are among the hypocrites who refuse to repent of their fabrications and blasphemies, those who have broken their oath/aymaan to worship God ALONE

                                        The Sunnis attest to this same shahaada, but they reject Muhammad. How so? Because they disregard his teachings. Bearing witness that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah is a manmade innovation, and it is only done by the hypocrites. When they are told of their wrongdoings, they walk away in pride (635) instead of ask for forgiveness and admit their blasphemy. 632 says they have chosen their oath/aymaan as "deceit" because they have deceived themselves into believing they are righteous worshipers of GOD ALONE, even though they are blasphemers who idolize the prophet Muhammad. Yet, they reject Muhammad by not obeying the message he delivered, and when they are informed of them, they become prideful and arrogant instead of repentant. And just like today's sectarians, their hearts become sealed, and "they do not understand" (633).

                                        I suggest you admit your failure and repent, asking Allah for forgiveness, instead of being stubborn and prideful, sturdy in your manmade foolishness. If you refuse to do this, you are just like the hypocrites mentioned in 631-5 who are rejectors.

                                        Peace,

                                        Ahmad

                                          Peace Brothers,

                                          I have not gone through the entire thread... But since I embraced true Islam and promised myself to follow only the teachings of the Quran... One of the first thing I did was to research for the Shahada and I could not find the Sunnite shahadah from the Quran... Definitely, manmade through the hadiths fabrications... So I Stick to La Ilaaha Ilallaah... and this one I am 200% sure that it is the one approved by Allah...

                                          However, removing the Muhamad rasoolullah from the Shahada does not mean that I have stopped believing in the messengership of the Muhammad Peace be upon him... On the contrary, I have a stronger feeling of love and respect for this Messenger by following and sticking to the true message he brought...

                                          Now I want to point out something, again... I have not gone through this entire thread so if it has been discussed already, just leave it...

                                          When we are to say Laa Ilaaha Ilallaaah There is not God who deserve to be worshipped except the One True God... It implies that this One True God is Living and He hears us bearing this testimony and so on... I mean these types of witness is for a living being... I mean this shahaada is in the PRESENT TENSE...

                                          Now for the part Ash hadou anna Muhammad rasoolullah... I bear witness that Muhammad IS the messenger of God... Well, this part is also in the present tense... How can we bear such a witness when the Messenger is no more and he is dead?? Should not this part be in the PAST TENSE?? Like Ash hadou anna Muhammad KAANA rasoolullah... Why is it in the present tense... Allah is the All-Living, the Eternal One, So it is perfectly logic to testify that He is the Only God in the present tense... However, for the Muhammad part, logically that part should have been in the past tense... Because Muhammad in not alive now.. So we cannot say HE IS the messenger of Allah...

                                          On the contrary, these words would be perfect... Ash hadou anna haazal Quraan Kalaamoullah... I bear witness that this Quran is the Word of God... I said this one just as an example...

                                          Anyone wanna comment on it?

                                          Regards

                                          Allah knows best
