A Challenge to All Believers of Quran
-
Hello Abdun Nur,
As a good role model of God you should not insult people in that manner.
Be safe
Amenuel -
I already wrote that to you a while ago.
Edit I am making it easier for you. was the word I said then. I encountered it during my reinterpretation of Quran. That word means kill/murder/end someone's life.
means to subdue/master/defeat a person but does not imply whether the person dies, is captured or... is captivated, i.e. defeated verbally so they agree with your argument in a verbal persuasion. If the word is to specify that the person dies there has to be additional words such as .
Be safe
AmenuelMan of faith, please give examples of
together in quran . -
Peace hawk99,
This guy explains it really nicely (I do not agree with everything he is advocating but there are some really interesting points in his lectures).

Peace mmmm, please give examples from the Quran.
Bro, I started a thread on that before. Qatal does have other meanings and they suit many verses rationally. I am posting the verse which Israfeel used to bully me about Quran.
And when Moses said to his people, "O my people, indeed you have wronged yourselves by your taking of the calf . So repent to your Creator and kill yourselves. That is best for you in the sight of your Creator." Then He accepted your repentance; indeed, He is the Accepting of repentance, the Merciful. 254
Satanic tafseerAn-Nasa'i, Ibn Jarir and Ibn Abi Hatim recorded Ibn `Abbas saying, "Allah told the Children of Israel that their repentance would be to slay by the sword every person they meet, be he father or son. They should not care whom they kill. Those were guilty whom Musa and Harun were not aware of their guilt, they admitted their sin and did as they were ordered. So Allah forgave both the killer and the one killed.'' This is part of the Hadith about the trials that we will mention in Surat Ta Ha, (20) Allah willing. (Tafseer ibn Katheer).
The worst thing I hear now is that anyone who does calf worshipping must be killed because of verse 254.
Truth Allah will never ever tell his slaves to go around killing. Qatal here means purification or making oneself humble.

Very true... sun...to further substantiate this please refer to Quran 0230
And, when your Lord said to the angels, "Indeed, I will make upon the earth a successive authority." They said, "Will You place upon it one who causes corruption therein and sheds blood....

The Qur'an is a conceptual guide, always keep in mind one concept cannot contradict another. The establishment of a Qur?anic concept termed ?QISAAS? is the foundation of relief from all wrongs. It does not mean to inflict punishment on the wrongdoer, rather it means to pursue the wrongdoer in such a way that they are held accountable for their actions, and relief is established for both the soul/s wronged and the soul who acted to wrong. It means that in the substantive system, no wrongful action shall remain untracked, unanswered or ignored.

Qatal is not "put to death" at all, only defeat a person, in various ways. Context defines.
Be safe
Amenuel -
Get well
Do you think your God approves of rudeness?
Be safe / be well is courtesy and wishing of well to people and you reply to me with "get well"?
I think the person who said "get well" is the person who needs to tell himself that the most.
-
vb. qtl does mean to kill (put to death),
or eliminate (put an end to)?Guys wake up! Root Qaf-Ta-Lam, its primary meanings is "to get to know someone/something very or superlatively well"

Imrankhawaja, are you a half wit?
oh really ,,, and what about you,,, you are engineer I think or may be doctor,,, or a person who is going against his scripture,,, awww I think best word for you is disobedient servant of Allah ,,, who called people by their bad names..
"O you who believe, no people shall ridicule other people, for they may be better than they. Nor shall any women ridicule other women, for they may be better than they. Nor shall you mock one another, or call each other names. Evil indeed is the reversion to wickedness after attaining faith. Anyone who does not repent after this, these are the transgressors." (4911)I think I need to remind you about this verse of quran ,,,
now come to the point on which grounds you called me half wit or stupid,,, I would like to know... then we will proceed talk.. jazak allah -

to kill, put to death, be accused, slay/murder/kill/slaughter, attempt to kill, render person like to one killed, to wage war/combat/battle, to master, contend/fight, deadly, knew a thing thoroughly/well, become acquainted with it.

http//www.qes.no/Lughat/VIII.pdfQTL
Raghib says it also means to insult another or to make him bend.
Ibn Faris says it basically means to insult or kill someone.(qatl) means to insult, demean or to make someone incredulous so that no one gives it any thought or importance. In other words "make him ineffective".
(uqtulu fulaana) made him like he was among the dead, i.e. his presence and absence will become irrelevant.
(qatala ash-sharaab) to add water to a drink and make it less effective or potent {T}.
(qatala ash-shay-a khubra) he acquired full knowledge about that thing.
(innahu laqatlu ash-sharr) he knows evil very well.
(al-muqattalu) a man who is very experienced and knows the truth or facts about things {T}.
As such, everywhere, where the word qatl appears in the Quran, it would not mean to kill somebody. Its meanings will be determined with reference to the context in which it is used. Sometimes it will be "to kill", sometimes it will mean "to demean" and "to insult", other times it will mean "to make ineffective" or "to destroy". Sometimes it will mean to deprive of education, and other times to acquire full knowledge etc.

Thanks for the reference, zayd. It all confirms the subduing meaning of qatel. It can mean to physically defeat someone, but it does not imply whether the person dies or not.

This is a post-quranic meaning, with no basis in the writ.
