      welcome

      My Goals
      I want to learn the truth about what miracles are (Jesus' birth & his miracles, Moses' staff that transformed into a setpant), and what exactly the definition of God is. I want to be able to one day say that I have full and unwavering belief in the Qur'an. Also, I want to learn Aribic soon so that I can understand the actual Qur'an (I can already read it, so with a bit more effort, god willing, I can get it done soon).

      There have been some very interesting threads on those topics. I suggest the search function .

      I hope to bring good perspectives on different topics.

      Looking forward to it.

                Thanks Everyone ;D

                Welcome sonnie! What do you mean by wanting to learn what miracles are?
                Thanks

                Well I hope understand what God meant when he said that Jesus "healed" the "blind". Most people take it literally, however, some other people claim that being "blind" is an metaphor for not having faith. Other metaphors include (giving life to the "dead" etc...). Which view is correct is purly a matter of belief.

                welcome Sonnie! You like soldering stuff on PCBs?

                Yes
                I am an Electrical Engineer by trade, and still create my own PCBs for hobby stuff.

                    Peace sonnie,

                    From my studies, phrases such as "blind", "deaf" and "giving life to the dead" are sometimes figurative in Al Quran (AQ). For the latter, see 6122, 2780, 3050-52, 824.

                    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.

                        Peace,
                        Respect.

                        welcome welcome to the forum, brother.
                        Same here, I wanna learn Arabic as well so that future conversations can be and will be, God willing, more beneficial, more fruitful, inshaAllah.

                        Always ask God to increase you in knowledge.

                        Peace.

                          Hi all,
                          I'm new to the forum. I've been reading this forum for a month now, and I really like the open-minded discussions. sun

                          A little bit about my past
                          Currently in my early twenties; I was born into a sunni family. I eventually realized that how long your beard is doesn't really matter to God. This led to the rejection of all non-quranic ahadith. Eventually after reading Shabbir Ahmed's translation of the holy Qur'an, I came across this website and read your guys' translation too.

                          My current psyche
                          I am a Muslim, and I try to do "good works" in my life, but I'm not sure if I am fully a moumin all the way yet... I still have doughts... kindda like when Abraham asks God"My Lord, show me how you resurrect the dead." He said "Do you not already believe" He said "I do, but it is so my heart can be relieved." (2 260)

                          My Goals
                          I want to learn the truth about what miracles are (Jesus' birth & his miracles, Moses' staff that transformed into a setpant), and what exactly the definition of God is. I want to be able to one day say that I have full and unwavering belief in the Qur'an. Also, I want to learn Aribic soon so that I can understand the actual Qur'an (I can already read it, so with a bit more effort, god willing, I can get it done soon).

                          Anyways, thats me... I hope to bring good perspectives on different topics.

                          Hi sonnie,
                          Welcome!
