Hot/"ramadan" Answer

Of course you find in "Islamic" literature the story and its opposite. So here is another story about the Islamic calender
It's said that the Islamic calender was set much earlier, from the first year the prophet immigrated, and so it was logical that he started it with "rabee3 -ul-awal first grazing", but Omar changed it to make it start with "mu7arram the restricted month".
In my opinion
Both stories are baseless, and they are just there to give credit to the whole fiasco of a lunar "Islamic" year. Otherwise, if the firs khalif could change the beginning of a calender, thus moving the time of fasting, how much manipulation took place in this calender?
And should we trust it, or trust God and search in His book? -
Salam farida,
I am not trying to convince anyone, just putting forward what i believe is true from my synthesis of what i read so far in the Quran, and the different articles i came across.
Since it was not my intention to write an essay on this proving or disproving using certain intellectual and/or factual tools, let us say that you either take these as initial hypotheses to prove or disprove,Salaam theNabster
I am sorry to say we are long past intial hypothesis, and at a stage where we are not wasting anymore time on unfounded opinions.
and stay content with the tafseers and works of the likes of Tabari, Shafie, Bukhari you seem content to carry on following.
That is your choice not mine and you can carryon with that by all means
The Quran is factual data enough for me, and from it you can glean a lot of chronological, archeological, historical, sociological information that more often than not contradict what the sectarians have "cooked" together.
Absolutely correct.
Other sources there are, and we need more work, but there is a lack of resources and will as overall,
Yes we need to evaluate all other sources, including Ayman's, and there is no lack of resources, but yes there is a lack of will and the old habit of dependency on others.
the sectarians do believe that they have the truth engraved in stone, so they do not feel the need to do any forensic and so on research on the matter
They are stuck in paralysis and we can only pray for them to wake up and seek the truth.
in fact if anything, there was a talk several times in Medinah that they should destroy graves and relics of Sahabah because of the dangers of idolatry (this of course will destroy valuable evidence).
Yes I have read this too. Very convenient for the Saudis. Anyway they need the tourist flow so they need to modernise and expand; after all this is the biggest tourist event in the world.
I for one would love to be able to get some fragments of belongings of the prophet dating round about his death and using the latest technology to carbon date, that will shed the light on the time line.
This shows you desire the truth and, sincerely seeking the truth, we will find it.
Now the question to ask, is his body even in Medinah as we are led to believe, there was a story that during the Ottoman empire there was an attempt at stealing his body which was foiled by the guardians of his tomb...
So long as Al Saud's culture of secrecy is economical with the truth and uses superstition and intimidation to cover and discourage research in the rational history of our past, we will carry on being ignorant and the weakest mentally among us (the huge majority) will either reject the deen or turn to the "scholar" to fill the void).I believe that, as the Qur'an prophesied, the record will be laid open and with the modern technology available to us it will happen soon insha?Allah
No offense, but i usually do not like to engage with abrasive people like you, as you are too agressive in your exchanges for my taste, and i do have a choice with whom i choose to interact in a forum, so kindly count yourself lucky that i replied this time...
May Allah increase us in knowledge, patience, compassion, and provides us with the means to better ourselvesSince you appear to be a reasonable person following this thread you should know that I too am no friend of abusive language and, as you will see from the quotes following, I only use it in response to abuse.
I am sure you will have noticed that it was Ayman who started calling all who disagreed with him stupid idiots and ignorant, lacking knowledge etc. Such invectives, the sign of a loser, were present in almost every post of his. There is a limit to putting up with such nonsense and adding name calling to that is too much, so I feel he got no more than he rightly deserved.If you feel I was aggressive with Siki (the Roman Salute) then know that it was in response to this remark siki on August 25, 2009, 070605 AM
Yes! because the country is PLAGUED with 180 million (minus a few) sunni sectarians, siki
Does this ring a bell? His language is no different from Hitler?s hate propaganda against the Jews, and I believe no one should harbour such feelings for anyone at all.And if you felt that I was aggressive with Rami as Reply #1276 on August 30, 2009, 013833 PM then know too that it was in response to his abhorrent accusation and mocking my fasting, not even understanding the basics of my fasting system. Check it yourself ? Reply #1241 on August 28, 2009, 060853 AM page 83.
You seem to be an honest and fair minded person so please advise me; where, was I alone aggressive? Or is it the traditional value that a woman should put up with obnoxious men at the bottom of this accusation?

I never said such thing. I said it was descended in a scorching full-moon. This is the same as saying it descended in a blazing sun or a cloudy day, etc. Just like all the phases of the moon, the scorching moon is an entirely optical phenomenon.
Day = Period of time
Moon = ObjectWho are you trying to fool? You are just trying to save your 'scorching moon' theory at any cost.
The great reading is about consistency. The great reading was descended in a scorching full-moon is more logical because it is consistent with the rest of the passage and other passages. For example, it is consistent with the following facts
Maybe that is why the moon was split by Muhammad... the Quran was stuck in it (according to your wording).
- The great reading was revealed in the night of measure (1 night not a whole month).
Are you telling me that this proves your point?
- The false understanding of month creates an insurmountable logical absurdity since shahid (witnessed) is in the perfect past tense so this implies that you have to witness the month and then go back in time and fast. Thus even the staunchest Sunnis admit that this passage is talking about witnessing an event (they claim to be the new moon crescent) and not a month. Rex and you can try to change the words of the passage to make it say witness the first day of the month or whatever but this is not what the passage is saying.
I have already explained the reason for the usage of the past tense... If you want, I'll post it again for you.
This is just some ignorant crap as typical from Submission.org.
Ignorant statement.
The fast in the Bible is prescribed as one day and not a whole month.
There are many fasts described in the Bible - either-or fallacy.
If you believe in the Bible then you might as well go ahead and idolize Jesus.
That's some screwed up logic you have...logical fallacy again..
Besides, we're talking about the OT part of the Bible... Jesus didnt exist in the time when the OT was published hint hint.An example of a Jewish fast is that of Taanit Bkhorot which happens on the day before the full-moon. Also, the 9th month of the Hebrew Calendar is Kislev which occurs in the November-December timeframe.
Why are you switching the topic? Did the fact that the people back then - real Submitters - not your Jewish calendar people with the Mishnah and Gemerrah - used a pure lunar calendar freak you out?
There is no evidence of a month called Ramadan
rotfl rotfl rotfl
Jeremiah 369 "And it came to pass in the fifth year of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, in the ninth month, that they proclaimed a fast before the Lord to all the people in Jerusalem, and to all the people that came from the cities of Judah unto Jerusalem."
let alone a 10 day period called Ramadan
Why are you telling me this? Arent you the one promoting your lousy 10 days of fasting?
I never said that it is a name so you are, as usual, building a strawman. I said that it is a common noun. The burden of proof is on you to show that there was a pre-Islamic month called Ramadan. I know you cant prove it.
The only one posting logically fallacious stuff is you. I presented my proofs to you - now it's your turn. As I can see from the above quote, you have none.
Peace,
Where? In your posts?!
Anyways, I am looking forward to your reply with A PROOF for your 10 days of fasting after having witnessed a so-called "full moon of scorching heat".

Thank you for the welcome, farida.
In fact I was following the thread closely, but could not have the time to participate; also did not find something new except acusing Ayman of repeating himself while the same questions are posed to him.
Until I red your post which you just told me of, and I mean this oneSalaam Samia,
No Samia there is a lot of new stuff on this thread. Ayman?s Mantra having put people like you off is another matter. But the thread is turning into a black hole and, as a result, all the hard work by the other contributors is being swallowed up. It has now come to a stage where I have to give page link as a reference for my posts to draw attention to our hard work.
What drew my attention was your differenciation between the meaning of "sana/ " and "3aam/ ". I really like your rendition and was surprised that you did not notice that God does not care what "our year" is or how long it's, but for Him it's from harvest to harvest (sanaa)or draught to draught (3aam), yet you cannot comprehend how, in the same manner, He does not care about our "month" and how long it ias. God speaks to use using His creation not our inventions, and that's why the quraan is full of advice for us to contemplate the creation.
As for the story of Khalifa Omar, the narrators say that the setting of a calendar was initiated by the walis and governors when money poured from foreign governates, and they had to know when exactly it arrived and to which "ramadan" it belonged so as not to mix the revenues of different years. I found this very interesting. They did not have a problem with when to fast (when ramadaan was), nor when to go to hajj; yet they wanted to know which "ramadaan/harvest time". This revenue, of course, was mainly the income of harvest. The decision of starting with the year of immigration was not even Omar's. So the year had nothing to do with fasting people did not need it for their fasting, otherwise, the prophet would have set it, and not address people that "their deen was complete".
)I feel so honoured that you like my rendition, however, if only you had paid attention to the top part of my post, you would have noticed that it cited 936 ?The count of the months with God is twelve months in God's record.?
I?m surprised that this part of my post did not interest you, despite the fact that this is the core of our belief, when it comes to count in the eyes of God as you rightly said that God does not care what "our year. Therefore no adding or skipping just count 12 *shahr/moon/month,.
*Month Etymology -Reply #1213 on August 27, 2009, 042925 PM page 81 I am sure this too was unnoticed by youMost probably, the corruption took place later when the islamic empire was full of hypocrates and traitors, the same time of hadith invention.
Moreover, even hadith and tales could not prove that a month called "Ramadan" existed. Those who dicuss this say the equivalent was called "Zahir/ ". I wonder why God brings about a name of a month the people are not aware of, and no question was asked!
Thanks again for this post 8No offence Samia but, unlike you, I have little interest these hadiths, however if you like to get your hand on a hadith driven dossier, introduced to us by a very interesting character, quickduck, who was trying to convince us (failing miserably) that , the order of months, as per his understanding, has never been always the same. Get your hands on this find on page 84 quickduck?s Reply #1246 on August 28, 2009, 075503 PM I am sure you would love this findings.
As always it?s great to hear from you.

And how we have been mocked and laughed at for taking this stance!
the tragedy for the sectarians is that as you rightly say, they have stopped following these important commandments, that

but even them do get manipulated by their pre-conceived filters and ideas, so you are never careful...
the ways of the devil are numerous, but the best ploy against him is knowledge, not dogmaI have long since stopped worrying about the sectarians. There was a time when I used to try and change my friends from among them and, to tell you the honest truth, most of the time when I discuss issues with them in light of the Qur?an, they do not disagree with me and agree about the corruptions. But then they say; we are not as brave as you and cannot break away from what we are. So I have left them to their deeds as that is what I understand we are supposed to do; just warn if they do not listen, but for the rest we have no authority over them.
However the greatest tragedy is the case of those who claim to be ?Qur?an Aloners?, those who, on this very site spend endless time mocking the traditionalists, the sunni, the hijjabis etc.! It is such a waste of time and, of course, in stark contravention of the teachings of the Qur?an.
On this very thread a thirteen year old wrote, in response to my post to you,( Reply #1364 on Today at 064510 PM) ?Hey but those "plagued people" think o' us as infidels and apostates...threatening us with death..." Is this really the legacy we wish to pass on to our youngsters?! I think not.
358 The one whose evil work is adorned and he sees it as being good. God thus misguides whom he wills, and He guides whom He wills. So do not let yourself grieve over them. God is fully aware of what they are doing.
God bless

No mind reading please
I wish I were 13 years old matter of fact ;D
As for the division into sects, nothing we can do about it, Allah pointed at it in the Quran,
and it will therefore keep on being so...
However Allah enjoins us very forcefully that we should not divide into sects.
Without the Quran there is no System of Belief, so the ball is clearly in the camp of those
who like distinguishing and separating themselves, each group giving themselves a name,
as Allah says, name they just named... no authority to those whatsoever...
Yes you are right we have enough of our own sins and shortcomings not to worry of those of others,
and as you can witness everyday, Allah hates those groups enough that they keep getting punished
for their blindness.
Blindness is no excuse, lack of judgment is no excuse, tradition is no excuse, being made is no excuse...
when there is the Book manifest in our hands, and most of us choose not to understand it, and instead out of
laziness choose to let others do the thinking for us, even if others are hell bent on our damnation...
and indeed by my last words I do not mean only scholars or mullahs, but also those "enlightened" hate mongers
you refer to who love to create animosity between communities (let's see, sectarian violence, shia versus sunni,
jihadist versus progressives).
My contention is that all these groups are inspired by dark princes of satan's kingdom, and without knowing
they are doing satan's bidding.
This also works by the way with the other religious groups in christianity and judaism, and governments...
Satan's army is now so very well oiled and organised, that I am prompted to think that maybe jihad was meant to mean
fighting the works of satan and his soldiers...

Ahh finally; soo relieved to see someone taking a stance based on the teachings of the Qur?an! God give you strength and resolve to stand up against those who want to erase our deen. As for dividing into sects and groups as Allah says in the Qur;an mankind were one but they fell into groups out of their own desire.
We are already separated in small sects fighting each other and, on top of that, a system of fasting, based on a twisted understanding, designed to fragment what little unity we have been able to muster. The sense of community that comes with sharing our experience of fasting would disappear should the theory Ayman is advocating win through. Not only does it swing, but it is also very different for both hemispheres so in his system we would not even be united with our next door neighbours when it comes to any act of worship. So on this note I bid you good night with these words from our Holy Book
Say "I seek refuge with the Lord of the people,"
"The King of the people,"
The god of the people,"
From the evil of the sneaking whisperer,"
Who whispers into the chests of the people."

Peace Ayman,
You can only count 12 so you have to skip the 13th. You are also giving me too much credit since it is the god who made the moon cycle, including the full-moon, so it is not "mine".
It is ALWAYS in early summer, whether you like it or not. On the other hand, how about your arbitrary nonsense timing which drifts all over the place and even within the same year you have 3 months together and then Rajab floating all by itself? As usual, you can't answer.
Animal mating and birthing habits are in line with the seasons. The timing for the restriction will always be from early summer to early fall. On the other hand, no animal gives birth in the summer and gives birth earlier by 11 days every year until about a dozen years later it gives birth in the winter per your nonsense.
How illogically absurd; skip count, ignore a whole cycle, and say it's not yours.
Again ? no answer to drifting kill season and everything else drifting by a month. Already stated; global hunting restriction is your fantasy along with "the skipping" to allow the sun to catch up with the moon which is never the case...
3640 La alshshamsu yanbaghee laha an tudrika alqamara
The sun should not (be) to it that it catches up the moonYou are ignorantly mistranslating. The word "siyam" is a noun not a verb.
583-4
And those who declare their wives as forbidden for them as their mothers
so freeing a neck from before that they touch each other
And he who finds not must do the abstinence two successive full-moons before they both touch each other
And he who is unable to do so should feed sixty poorThe abstinence two successive full-moons means wait until next 98%, 99%, 100% full moon then fast to next non-identifiable 98%, 99%, 100% full moon which is about a month +/- a few days for error.
Therefore, the abstinence of one full-moon is ZERO days!
Let's apply the verse today
- Does he commence fasting? YES!
- Can he sleep with his wife until the next full moon? NO!
- Does feeding 60 poor equate to two months fasting? YES!
Go learn Arabic and more importantly logic. The word "quran" is masculine while " " in 7431 is feminine (referring to the feminine "saqar" while in 690 " " is masculine referring to the "quran". You are in way over your head and this entire discussion is clearly beyond your intellectual capacity if you can't even grasp those basic concepts. You are sounding more and more like ignorant 19ers who also confuse the feminine " " (on it) in 7430 as talking about the masculine "quran" and not the feminine "saqar". (not surprising since they too believe and blindly follow your manmade arbitrary traditional calendar by the way and they even made a Code for it as Progressive1993 can show you http//www.islamrevolution.org/thenightofdestiny.htm ).
It doesn't matter what conclusion you reach as long as your starting point is not trying to justify traditions. It is entirely your choice, stupid or intelligent?

Salam,
Have a look herehttp//www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=Ramadan
Ramadan Etymology -
"ninth month of the Muslim year," 1595, from Arabic Ramadan (Turk. and Pers. ramazan), originally "the hot month," from ramida "be burnt, scorched" (cf. Heb. remetz "hot ashes, embers". Due to the Islamic lunar calendar, it passes through all seasons in a cycle of about 33 years, but evidently originally it was a summer month.but there is also more sinister etymology to Ramadan such as this
The principle theme of cosmology is creation and everywhere in the ancient world festivals were celebrated on the days of creation, i.e. the days of the sun?s equinox risings. In many ancient nations the new year was celebrated on the spring equinox, for then a new world had emerged out of the darkness of winter. There is in fact a sacred holiday which bears Rama?s name--the Islamic feast known as Ramadan. The word Ramadan is a cognate of Ramazan, or san rama, meaning Holy Sun (Bayley 345). While Ramadan is officially a lunar holiday, it?s etymology shows its meaning, and its time of celebration just after the fall equinox makes a conclusive connection to its solar origin. Ramadan is celebrated on the first new moon after the fall equinox when the fertile earth (fertilized by the sun) has been harvested and its bounty will succor the people?s journey into winter.
Bayley, Harold. Lost Language of Symbolism, Volumes 1 and 2. Whitefish, Montana Kessinger Publishing Company, 1912.

It seems my fears are true. The Ramadan of the Quran is impossible to pin-point due to insufficient data. The Quran mentions it once as if its a well known thing. And the ones who know the month are DEAD.
So let us be sectarians for Pete's sake!
Sectarian?
THIS IS TRADITIONAL ISLAM!

Could someone please answer him, i can't stop myself laughin.. laugh laugh laughi'll come back later , once i stop
-
EDIT sorry, i'm back again
you know, your major problem with your arabic reading/understanding is that you completly ignore the arabic vocals .
Yet, someone will tell me that the vocals don't appear in the oldest manuscript, and were added later.
That's because earlier arabs didn't need to write the vocals 'cos they understood from the context which vocal is to be connected to which letter. They even did't put the "dots" on the letters yet they could read and understand what was written.
still nowadays, the arabic newspapers for example, don't use vocals because we (arab speaking people) are very able to figure them out from the context.
the vocals were lately added to the quran specially for people like you, but you keep ignoring them and you focus only on the "root letters" and some ''tradition based" translations.example N?1 li ad-dhakari (male/masculine) is not the same as "ad-dhikra" (remembrance) and different from ad-dhikr ( the reminder). although they share the same root dha-ka-ra
example N?2 hadatha (happen ) , hadath (event) , had-data ( narrate ) and haadita (accident ) share the same root
and they give completly different meanings .Also, genders (masculine/ feminine ) in arabic grammar is a bit difficult for you to understand because your language doesn't have such grammatical rules. And i agree it's confusing for you...
in the great reading nowhere we find that the quran is treated as feminine (that's what made laugh my head off in your last post ) but always as masculine word . ie ( Say, "Whose testimony is the greatest?" Say, "GOD's. He is the witness between me and you that this Quran has been inspired to me, to preach it to you and whomever it reaches. Indeed, you bear witness that there are other gods* beside GOD." Say, "I do not testify as you do; there is only one god, and I disown your idolatry." ....wa ouheya ilayya hadha al qur'ano li undhirakum bihi wa man balagh..
So as you see , "this" (hadha) is masculine whereas the same ''this'' become (hadhihi) when it is feminine."a rivederci, e a la proxima lezzione ".
