We will be alone , with no intercessor, the day of judgement.
Defense is based on quran and only of quran (for those who received Quran and said to follow that book).

God knows what is in our hearts and know if we were sincere or not.

People following things not in quran will probably have some difficulties justifying sources.

Salamun Alayka,

You are doing fine with your emoticons, but you have to work on your emotions.
"Bendeeeeerrrrrr you stole my chance" is a cry of someone who can't control his anger management and besides this it's also a big lie.
I wonder what the penalty is for accusing someone for stealing something which in not even his hmm
A -- chopping of the fingers who typed it
B -- chopping of the tongue who spoke it out
C -- chopping of the brains who thought it

Salaam,

ps. there is also an option D

Each people have different opinion and interpretation its natural.

I realize Quran is easy to understanding 5417 and will not make people create some sects because different understanding
Because Allah is not make people difficult to perform their faith 2185

Hi Everyone,

Will we be judged based on our interpretation of the Quran?

We will be judged based on what we do. If our interpretation tells us to do good works, then we will be judged based on that. I think there is a lot of merit in struggling to understand what Allah wants for us.

Just because we don't dress in a traditional manner does not mean we aren't doing good works in the world. Unless our dress is soooooo distracting to people they can't focus on doing their good works.

Just because we are not praying exactly as Muhammed (PBUH) did doesn't mean we are not trying to make sincere contact/worship of Allah.

We should focus on how our interpretation of the Quran leads to good/bad deeds in the community. If our interpretation of a verse promotes bad in the community then we should rethink our interpretation until we see how Allah intended the verse for good.

Focusing on exactly how to do something "correctly" may distract from doing good in the community.

Just my crazy thoughts,

JewishDude
peace Salam, Shalom, Peace peace

Quran is the guidance for people of 'all the worlds' from its inception to its extinction in all the matters, events and incidents of each human's individual life-style. Since each one has his own way and direction, and the directions keep changing as per one's perception that has dynamic expansion and extensions, by the moment, Quran alone has sure Guidance if only he ponders upon the ayats on his own, in meritorious righteousness. And as none but Allah alone shall know what in one's heart is, He alone is the sole Source and Guide to reveal from His Book, as revelation or Inspiration. Thus there is constant upgrading of one's elevation to God's nearness in style and grace. In this way each one shall stand as a model and an exemplar, and live as witness to the ayats of Quran, following the path of all the messengers and the prophets - messengers are models unto us and we are models unto others. Unless we believe in Wahi from Allah upon each of us, there is no question of believing or comprehension of any ayat from Quran - for Quran, by itself is wholesome Wahi, and it is meant individually for each and every human. Now read Quran from this Light, you shall know that there can never be tutors above the Revealer, Allah.

Never interpret Quran You are to be Inspired and Revealed as Wahi or Revelation, every single ayat, for Quran by itself, is wholesome Wahi.

Peace

Salamun Alayk,

Woah woah woah, ..... I should have better known that free-minds has sharp and intelligent minds too ;D

However, though your analysis is quite accurate, there are three points I would like to raise

The sentence at hand was initially supposed to come in a "jokingly" or "teasingly" manner, not "angrily". Where I come from, extending someone's name like that is to depict light desperation or frustration for doing something slightly disliked by the person saying it, yet in a very light mood and tone, certainly not with a "mad" or "angry" one. So perhaps it's due to the cultural difference that you misunderstood me, for talking like this to someone does not give the impression of actual anger or mismanagement of anger in my society. Extending someone?s name like that in a sentence does not mean that one is screaming, or having a harsh tone, but simply showing slight disheartenment. Such expressions are followed by ?But it?s cool/okay? and a smile. Conclusively, my intention was not to show that I am angry or have an anger mismanagement problem, but was simply, slightly disheartened.

My apologies for using the word "Steal", I realized how absurd it sounds, I should have you used the word "Took", or should have said "Bendeeeeeeerr,r I missed my chance because of you", or "Bendeeeeerrr, you made me miss my chance". Though, then again, ever heard the phrase "Steal someone's thunder"? Well as per the dictionary I possess, it means "Win praise for oneself by preempting someone else's attempt to impress", where one of the meanings of "Preempting" is "Acquire or appropriate (Something) in advance". Hence, my usage of "Steal" does not necessarily mean the traditional "Taking something from someone without permission or right", but can very well mean taking something that I could've done. Though now I have realized that it?s not your posting before me that is the cause me not being able to share the verse, but it?s my lack of being attentive that is the cause, hence I acknowledge my bad usage of words, but even then, I didn't have the intention of accusing you directly or indirectly at all, but simply joke around.

I used the phrase "Just kidding" later, which more or less negates what I said before it. At Urbandictionary.com, a person wrote that the following are the usages of this expression (and got a positive feedback too)

You were just joking around with somebody
You were actually serious but decided what you said was actually very mean
You were actually serious but since that person took what you said offensively you cover it up by saying" just kidding"
When you try to confess to something and that person is either laughing at you in disbelief or just very angry you cover it up by saying just kidding

3 and 4 cannot be the case for I wrote the expression before any reaction by you, hence, 1 and 2 are left. Since I'm the guy who said it, I would obviously know better what my intention was, and it was certainly 1, not 2. I never thought that it is "actually very mean" to begin with, and was in reality "joking around" with you, that's all. As far as "joking" is concerned, well as per thefreedictionary.com, here are the meanings of this term

joke (jk)
n.

Something said or done to evoke laughter or amusement, especially an amusing story with a punch line.
A mischievous trick; a prank.
An amusing or ludicrous incident or situation.
Informal
a. Something not to be taken seriously; a triviality The accident was no joke.
b. An object of amusement or laughter; a laughingstock His loud tie was the joke of the office.
v. joked, jok?ing, jokes
v.intr.
To tell or play jokes; jest.
To speak in fun; be facetious.
v.tr.
To make fun of; tease.

See the "Something not to be taken seriously", and "Tease"? Well that is exactly what I had in mind, to simply say something not to be taken seriously, and was simply "Teasing" you.

Hence, dear brother Bender, my apologies for any misunderstandings, I take back what you said if you got offended by my comment -[, and I let all people who read this know that I had no intention of harming Bender's good name at the forum at all )

Peace
