    Greetings and Peace, all group

    @muslims You stated that when I place words for comparison that they "ignores its context" , then apply 548-49 out of context? What is the word that best describes a person that accuses others...and undertakes the same action that they accuse others of?


    "Except from their wives" is literal and applies to men only, hmm? This is excellent news (if true) to all women, including lesbians! <sarcasm>

    Is it not clear that the verses refer to pairs/mates/groups (which includes spouses)? It was clear enough to many of the translators!

    http//www.islamawakened.com/quran/23/6/
    http//www.islamawakened.com/quran/70/30/default.htm

    Rather than depend on the translations of others, translate the verse with the Qur'an. Cross reference the words and find what the true meaning is.

    2240 And for those of you whose lives are terminated and they leave behind; a testimony to them that they may enjoy for one year without being made to vacate. If they leave then there is no sin upon you for what they do with themselves of goodness; and GOD is Noble, Wise.

    6143 Eight in from the lambs two, and from the goats two. Say "Is it the two males that He forbade or the two females, or what the wombs of the two females bore? Inform me if you are truthful!"

    1588 So do not linger with your eyes on what We have bestowed upon some from them, and do not grieve for them, and lower your wing for the believers.

    20131 And do not linger with your eyes on what We have bestowed upon some from them; the flower of the worldly life; so as to test them in it; and the provision of your Lord is better and more lasting.

    235 And they keep covered their private parts.
    236 Except around their , or those who are maintained by their oaths, they are free from blame.
    237 But whoever seeks anything beyond this, then these are the transgressors.

    567 And you will be in three .

    7029 And those who keep covered their private parts.
    7030 Except around their or those maintained by their oaths, there is no blame.
    7031 Whoever seeks anything beyond this, they are the transgressors.

    788 And We created you in ?

    What are the words for wife and wives in AQ? hmm

    http//corpus.quran.com/search.jsp?q=wife
    http//corpus.quran.com/search.jsp?q=wives

    We are enjoined in AQ to honor our obligations and contracts. It just so happens that homosexuals form obligations and even contracts (such as marriages and civil unions) between each other.

    "I have never made but one prayer to GOD, a very short one 'O Lord make my enemies ridiculous.' And GOD granted it." - Voltaire

    3348 And do not obey the rejecters and the hypocrites, and ignore their insults, and put your trust in GOD; for GOD suffices as an advocate.

    ALLAH knows best.

    peace

      Salam

      Why are you using general verses of the Qur'an to make me look like a disbeliever when I'm referring you the exact words from the Qur'an and giving full reasons? Since when a "transgressor" are better than those who follow the "STRAIGHT" path in the Qur'an? (al-fatihah; Guide us to the STRAIGHT path.... and vs. homosexual path) ;D

      I in fact have hundreds of verses in my head and can do the same, which I choose not to do so against you. It is irrelevant!

      and you are still rambling with your "straw argument" and did not answer my question, while arrogantly rejecting all translators as being wrong! and without any reasons! (refer here, other translations section, relating to "wives" or "spouses&quot. Stop being a "straw person" and answer the question.

      Why Allah used different words, while you are interpreting these words should mean the same as (6143) ?

      Is is exactly the same with ?

      Context?

      Peace.

        They said, "We are being dispatched to guilty people.
        "As for Lot's family, we will save them all.
        "But not his wife; she is destined to be with the doomed."

        Why was Lot's wife destined to be with the doomed? Was she also homosexual?

          Why homosexual should be exempted from the rule relating to "private parts"?

          They have none?

          • Please, no rambling about Lut etc. I'm not discussing about "Lut's nation", but I'm discussing about the rules relating to "private parts". Therefore, please give your authority and clear verses that homosexual can use their "private parts" to anyone, other than "wives" or "spouses".

          Peace

                  Understood! So I have no right to reply or defence when someone makes a blank accusation or use sarcastic language against me. laugh

                  Salam

                  I believe so .. I'm following the Qur'an

                  You called me a rebel for "no reason", I called you a bigot for "justified reasons". Fair? ;D

                  Invite to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good instruction
                  and argue with them in a way that is best
                  Indeed, your Lord is most knowing of who has strayed from His way
                  and He is most knowing of who is guided
                  And if you punish
                  punish with an equivalent of that with which you were harmed
                  But if you are patient
                  it is better for those who are patient
                  (16125-126)

                  Peace.

                    Greetings and Peace, all group

                    My comments are in red.

                    Salam

                    Why are you using general verses of the Qur'an to make me look like a disbeliever when I'm referring you the exact words from the Qur'an and giving full reasons? Since when a "transgressor" are better than those who follow the "STRAIGHT" path in the Qur'an? (al-fatihah; Guide us to the straight path.... and vs. homosexual path) ;D

                    What do you mean by "general" verses? Do you discount any verses and if so, which and why?

                    Further, I didn't call anyone a disbeliever. If you feel that the label applies to you--it is solely on you.

                    If the verses make you look (or feel like you look) like a disbeliever, there may be a reason for that (walk like a duck, quack like a duck)...but I won't call you one because I don't know if you are or are not. If it makes you feel better, I don't think you are a disbeliever. Two sentences in my last post were directed at you...the part that said "@muslims" which was separated from the rest of the post with ***.

                    You are using translations (such as "wives&quot instead of exact words (such as "azwjihim&quot, and have said that when I use exact words that the exact words are out of context--and then have the gall to state that you use exact words. What do you call a person who engages in hypocrisy? > Apply that label to yourself then, deservedly!

                    Were you attempting a pun (straight path) in a serious conversation? <groan>

                    I in fact have hundreds of verses in my head and can do the same, which I choose not to do it against you.

                    Thank you for not doing so--it means a lot to me! I really mean that!

                    and you are still rambling with your "straw argument" and did not answer my question, while arrogantly rejecting all translators as being wrong! and without any reasons! (refer here, other translations section, relating to "wives" or "spouses&quot. Stop being a "straw person" and answer the question.

                    I don't ramble. I place informative statements backed by AQ and verifiable information. The arguments I have put forward are not straw men (although it seems that you'd like to present them as such in order to ignore them). It seems that 'tis you that is grasping for straws instead of grasping for genuine meaning. Pity. The single question asked in the post before has been addressed. It was addressed by pointing out that the question was invalid.

                    It is invalid in the same sense that the two following questions are invalid

                    Have you stopped beating your wife lately?

                    or

                    What is one plus one?

                    Choose one answer only!

                    A 19
                    B 11,000,000,000

                    It is apparent that the words are different...look at the roots though. Also, consider the other evidences, such as different words used for wife and wives.

                    I haven't arrogantly rejected translators, but I DO trust the Qur'an more than any translator. Who is a translator that I should trust them without verification? The translators can't even agree among themselves! I actually posted links to translations...and then posted a better source--verses from the Qur'an. Also, in posting how you perceived my actions as arrogant, you have once again resorted to the ever-so-intellectual ad-hominem attack.

                    Peace.

                    Since you haven't addressed any of the actual questions in my previous post, should I believe that you have no answer for them? Is pretending insult when you weren't even singled out just a way of muddying the water?

                    You are a legend in your own mind--a true shining wit; try reading the Qur'an instead of quoting yourself--you may actually learn something of value!

                    ALLAH knows best.

                    peace

                      Where is your patience? You have tenfold tried to break me down and you call it justified? Are you going to be that literal about the interpretation you risk missing the point.

                            Salaam,

                            Unfortunately I do not refer anywhere I am fine where I am, sorry! You interpret the Qur'an too literally without taking the whole Book/Message into consideration. Where is the wishful thinking? I pasted a section of the verse which you had not highlighted but was part of it and pretty important too as it included behavioral hints.

                            Read the following remaining verses in that chapter to get a better view of the context as they are related. Being good is in the last verse.

                            Anyway I am not sure what we are trying to prove really and it is bad behavior from all of us and we should move it out of the thread. We are not on topic but just flaming each other.

                            "If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also". Best solution.

                            Peace

                              Too much wishful thinking, and I don't how your post is contributing or answering the issue of this thread (refer here and here). You are not referring to the Qur'an and make your personal opinions and wishful thinking from the start. Now, you are calling people "rebel" (refer here), "curse them to hell" (refer here and here), make hate comments (sectarian), and make so many "blank accusations" (refer here) which I don't bother to reply, and simply because they are referring to the Qur'an and have different perspectives. In conclusion, you are the best of all and will be entered into Paradise, and without any needs to refer the Qur'an. It is always other peoples' problems and be in hell (refer here). Please send my regard to Allah, I'll be waiting in the Hell Fire. In fact, I'm not afraid of the Hell Fire!! ;D

                              Peace

                                Why are you not afraid of the Hellfire with your behavior? Lies about me over and over again.

                                    So you edit your comments, and it is not lying. I quote every words I said. Proven!

                                    Why should those who believe in the Qur'an afraid of the Hell Fire?

                                    Are you a disbeliever?

                                    Peace.

                                      Because it does not matter what you believe if you are not a decent person which you have entirely missed from Qur'an.

                                        Salam

                                        Indeed, those who have said, "Our Lord is Allah ,"
                                        and then remained on a right course
                                        there will be no fear concerning them
                                        nor will they grieve
                                        (4613), refer also to (7213)

                                        and as I said, you are arguing from a Christian point of views .. adopting Christian views as Islamic views.

                                        A religion, sectarianism and a bigot.

                                        So do you think Khidr will be in the Hell Fire?

                                        Okay if I make it simple and break it into four rules, Islam for you is only the "Afaalullah".. and you set aside the "Asmaulllah", "Sifatullah" and "Dzatullah". Just like what the Christians are doing, Jesus is Love and nothing else matter. So as Buddhism, life is peace and harmony, nothing else matter ... or the Hinduism, life is sacrifice, nothing else matter. That's pretty simple, and there is nothing to reason, weight and balance for a deen, or dealings with various behaviours of human beings and other living creatures (cf. Khalifah). In fact, Allah could just tell us on a single piece of paper, do good! Done! Good Job!

                                        However, does both Mr. Perfect and Mr. Good Heart, or loves have negative side effects?

                                        Does perfection or love "invites fear"?

                                        Insecure?

                                        Depression?

                                        Frustration, abuse, alcoholic or suicide, maybe? !

                                        You are Mr. Good Heart and divorcing, your wife left you... right?

                                        What do you feel now, after being Mr. Good Heart?

                                        Do you able to "READ" (understand) her as Mr. Good Heart?

                                        How many people in this world with good heart and full of love but live miserably?

                                        Being oppressed by the those in power?

                                        Now, how does all that relates with the following ayat?

                                        Unquestionably, the allies of Allah
                                        there will be no fear concerning them
                                        nor will they grieve
                                        (1062)

                                        How could it be possible for any human beings to be fear of imperfection or being unloved, and at the same time have no "fear" or "grievance"?

                                        How does all that is the solution by the One True Creator?

                                        You must be kidding.

                                        The Qur'an is not that that simple or like what you think, right?

                                        In fact, I believe you don't understand (read) what you are talking.

                                        You are just rambling, and without facts from the Qur'an (no purpose). )

                                        Right, you don't read and only argues.

                                        Peace.

                                          Rather a Christian than an asshole.
