    In the sectarian delusion they are something other than the wordly type of humans.

    Shaytaan is a word for an instinct or lust to do something that is triggered by the jinn or jannateh (body).

    Be well

    You are a sectarian too, any kind of pig-headedness is a sectarianism, you are pig-headed towards pseudo-realism with a sprinkle of convoluted linguistism and phonetism ;D

      The Moon is a sphere which travels once around the Earth every 29 days. As it does so, it is illuminated from varying angles by the Sun. At New Moon, the Moon is between the Earth and Sun, so that the side of the Moon facing towards us receives no direct sunlight, and is only lit by dim sunlight reflected from the Earth. As it moves around the Earth, the side we can see gradually becomes more illuminated by direct sunlight.

      After a week, the Moon is 90? away from the Sun in the sky and is half illuminated, what we call First Quarter because it is about a quarter of the way around the Earth.

      A week after this, the Moon is 180? away from the Sun, so that Sun, Earth and Moon form a line. The Moon is fully illuminated by the Sun, so this is called Full Moon. The Earth's shadow points towards the Moon at this time, but usually the Moon passes above or below the shadow and no eclipse occurs.

      A week later the Moon has moved another quarter of the way around the Earth, to the Third Quarter position. The Sun's light is now shining on the other half of the visible face of the Moon.

      Finally, a week later, the Moon is back to its New Moon starting position. Usually it passes above or below the Sun, but occasionally it passes right in front of the Sun, and we get an eclipse of the Sun.

      The Moon's phases are NOT caused by the shadow of the Earth falling on the Moon. In fact the shadow of the Earth only falls on the Moon twice a year when there is a lunar eclipse.

          The tidally locked moon once was a clear sign/miracle to many of Gods creation. Reflected in the many islamic nations carrying a crescent moon in their flags.

            @runninglikezebras Peace

            I am afraid that will get lost on Flat Earthers and their new recruits (

            linked to what you said, the pre-Islam Arabs worshipped the Moon as the Moon God, they also worshipped the Sirius Star system (brightest star in the Arabian night sky), in Arabic Al Shi3ra, Allah said in Chapter 53 49 He was its Lord, so they cease worshipping it.

            I think there is a remnant residual idolatry in many "Islamic" countries choosing a Crescent and Star for their flag emblems.

              Certainly there are pagan roots to the crescent moon symbol. But I do believe the moon was one of the major natural signs that confirmed Quran. I know it was to me.

                It is said that the Crescent and Star symbol, which was popular in the late Roman Empire (Byzantine) as well, was used by the pre-Islamic Turk tribes, who then became leaders in the Muslim world, and used it extensively as their symbol.

                The moon and star seemed to indicate a favorable astrological symbol which represented a good omen of increase and success.

                The symbol of the Crescent moon has often meant "increase" or "impending increase", even in India, and was known around the ancient world to have this symbolic meaning. The ancient way of thinking was often very poetic and symbolic, where every little thing was almost superstitiously viewed as having additional meanings or omens or mental implications, as compared to the modern compartmentalized view of things where "sh*t happens" and has no meaning.

                  What is most puzzling about the moon to me is it is firmly locked with the earth. Always showing one side to the earth. The mathematics to achieve such a tidally locked orbit are very delicate. In my mind there is no chance the moon has been locked into such orbit by coincidence.

                  I like what you posted FreedomStands. Let's have the best of both worlds, why don't we? We don't need to be superstitious neither ignorant.

                  I always liked as a kid when I had to sleep and was afraid of the dark I could keep the light on.

                  Peace

                    @FS

                    Everything has a meaning, and Allah taught me through the Quran and His Signs that it is all (bar none) for testing purposes

                    This is the superiority of submission to Allah alone, not as supremacism, but as humbleness, meekness and peacemaking.

                      That too, is the most amazing miracle regarding the moon, for me. That its always facing us the same way and we never get mooned by the moon.

                          I asked these questions because I don't believe if it is not logical and understandable. So, please clarify. Thanks.

                            Thank you for your reply.

                            I have a question regarding the eight moons with the sun and moon shown in the above image.
                            There is no full moon shown. How come then full moon appears. As per the picture sunlight never covers the full moon.
                            How do you understand this bro?

                            Edit Got it, it shows on number 5?
                            Thanks.

                            May Allah increase our knowledge and guide us on His path pr

                              Jinns are non-human sentient entities.

                              You're just parroting what the sectarian mohammedans taught you, not G-D.

                              Allah describes the Jinns very well in the Quran as such,
                              only those whose hearts are sealed by pride or ignorance will refute such an obvious Quranic description.

                              The Gin who listened to the Quran were a furtive group of people, not "genies" (in bottles)!

                              Try reading the Quran for a change!

                                Good discovery of yours.

                                Al-Jinn is basically an adjective (AL marked word without a noun marker, e.g. &#1578 and it is used to mark that someone is worldly or bodily in their perception.

                                Edit I would argue both GENtile and PaGAN has the Jinn word borrowed in their etymology. Both imply that one is worldly inclined. For the one who want to argue about their etymology as land then I can say that Jannateh (used in gentile) has a secondary meaning as "body of land", but that is probably not the implication hence WORLDLY is probably the meaning when you call a person Gentile or Pagan. Pagan is a person who worships physical entities, including physical deities including Allateh.

                                Be well

                                      You're just parroting what the sectarian mohammedans taught you, not G-D.

                                      The Gin who listened to the Quran were a furtive group of people, not "genies" (in bottles)!

                                      Try reading the Quran for a change!

                                        Al-Jinn is basically an adjective (AL marked word without a noun marker, e.g. &#1578 and it is used to mark that someone is worldly or bodily in their perception.

                                        Please don't give me your etymology/mythology claptrap, Jinns are perfectly defined in Quran.

                                        Now with your friends unbelievers of the unseen creations of Allah, when someone disagrees with you, you call him sectarian and Mohamedan, well you are hypnotised by Satan who convinced you he didn't exist, while giving you cavity searches, and turning you against understanding the Quran properly.

                                        Enjoy the buggery.

                                          Peace brother,

                                          Oh really?

                                          As you said you are an ex-scientist I believe you. But please let me know how a mouse reached there and how much it would have taken to eat half a moon? hmm May be it was a group and not a single mouse? hmm

                                          I asked these questions because I don't believe if it is not logical and understandable. So, please clarify. Thanks.

                                          May Allah increase our knowledge and guide us on His path pr

                                          When you look up in the sky, does the moon seem very big to you? Why do you think it is far away and big if you do? What if it is just as tiny as it looks or only slightly larger? What if the moon is actually just in your mind, so that to get to the moon you have to actually get behind your eyes or something.
