      Great job noshirk. Coincidentally, I was thinking about those verses about fasting all day.

            2185 Shahr RAMADAN, in which the Qur?an was revealed...

            Peace noshirk, long thread with numerous topics and what did it primarily mean at the time?

            2185 shahru ramadan (heat) the one descends in it the Qur?an?
            perf558 shahru jumada (parched) the first from sanatin twosome and twenty (22) ...

            http//oi67.tinypic.com/nfogsg.jpg

            Perf 558 "30 pharmouthi of the indiction year 1" 25 April year 643 shahru jumada the first (30th last day of month)

            http//astropixels.com/ephemeris/phasescat/phases0601.html

            New Moon
            April 24 Jumada al-awwal 29; April 25 Jumada al-awwal 30 (Perf 55
            May 23 Jumada al-thani 28
            June 21 Rajab 28; June 24 Shaban 1; July 7 (first full moon after summer solstice)
            July 21 Shaban 28; July 23 Ramadan 1
            Aug 20 Ramadan 29; Aug 21 Ramadan 30

            Sana=Lunar Month

            The argument is based on verse 29-14 where it said that Noah is still between his people 1000 sana less 50 aam (years). Understanding of Sana=lunar month leads to a tota duration of 33 years while understanding of sana year or equivalent (12 lunar month) leads to a duration of 950 years.

            We have same problem with verse 18-25 where people of cavern stayed 309 sana, which is exactly 25 solar years instead of the classical understanding of 309 years.

            inconsistent mixing different words and "they" who claim 309

            1825 and stayed they of in cave theirs three hundred sinna and increases they of nine of
            1826 say the god knows in what stayed they of ...

            Not months...
            2618 said did not we raise you among us child of and stayed thou among us from upkeep your sinna
            2914 and surely sends we of Noah of to folk his so stayed among them thousand sanatin except fifty Aama ...
            4615 ... and reach forty sanatan ...
            704 ascends the angels and the spirit toward him in day be measure its fifty thousand sanatin

            302 The Romans have won.
            303 At the "nearest" part on the earth. But after their victory, they will be defeated.

            So quran asks us to see what happend in the sky during september equinox of years between 617 and 622.

            Where does qur'an ask this?

            301 alif lam meem
            302 ghalabat/triumph she the romans
            303 in lowest the land and they from after triumph theirs shall defeated being
            304 in bii/several (i.e. 3 to 9) sinna (not months) to god the directive from before and from after and day therein exulted the believing

            it reported that prophet Muhammad prophetized something like a lunar eclipse.
            however this is found in the famous beginning verses of sourates

            541 The Hour draws near, and the moon is breached.
            542 And if they see a sign, they turn away and say ?Ongoing magic!?

            and that event occurred the next full moon October 20 617.

            Peruse all occurrences of "the hour" which pertains to end time not 1400 years ago...

            7187 ask they you about the hour when arrival its say only knowledge its near/with lord mine ...

            1514 And if We opened for them a gate in the heaven and they were to continue ascending into it,
            1515 They would have said ?Our sight has been fogged. No, we are a people being bewitched!?

            Now, is these astronomical events coincidence ?
            Is it forgery of brother noshirk ?

            Not about calendars...

            1512 like such we let enter it in hearts the criminals
            1513 not believing in it and assuredly passed manner the former
            1514 and in case open we of upon them gate of from the heaven and continue they of in it ascending
            1515 surely would say they of only intoxicated vision ours rather we folk bewitched being
            1516 and surely made we of in the heaven constellations of and adorned it to the onlookers

            937 Know that the use of the additional month causes an increase in rejection...

            Not about adding month since word is not in 937 rather postponement or delay ...

            936 indeed count l-shuhri/the cycles near/with the god two dual ten (twelve) shahran/cycle of in book the god day creation the heavens and the land therein quartet (group of 4) urumun/prohibit such the creed the value so not thou wrong ye of in them souls yours and fight ye of the idolaters all like/as what fighting you all and know ye of that the god with the righteous

            937 only the postponement increase in the disregard misguided in it the ones disregard they of allowing it Aama/year of and prohibiting it Aama/year of to adjust count what prohibit the god so allow they of what prohibit the god beautified for them evil deeds theirs and the god not guided the folk the skeptics

              The prophet who was not speaking 3 days in September.

              It was Zacharie. let's try to proove it.

              First, let's remember that in equinox days, laylatou al qadr

              973 The Equinox is better than one thousand Full moons.
              974 The angels and the Spirit come down in it with the permission of their Lord to carry out every matter.

              When Zachariah asked god for a child, and god accepted, Zachariah asked for a sign.
              this sign is mentioned in two verses

              341 He said ?My Lord, make for me a sign.? He said ?Your sign is not to speak to the people for three days except by symbol, and remember your Lord greatly, and glorify at dusk and dawn.?
              1910 He said ?My Lord, make for me a sign.? He said ?Your sign is that you will not speak to the people for three nights consecutively.?

              Three nights or three days ? What was the sign ?
              Unless we admit this a an error in quran and Allah forgot what sign he gave, we have to accept that Zachariah was already making siyyam of speaking during the day and Allah completed the nights. It is the only way to solve the problem.

              Zachariah was then fasting 3 days, that is no speaking.

              Now let's proove that it was in Spetember. It is more difficult.

              Oh God, something came in my head. I think its traces still exist in some religions https//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween

                2187 It has been made lawful for you during the night of fasting to approach your women sexually. They are a garment for you and you are a garment for them. God knows that you used to betray yourselves so He has accepted your repentance, and forgiven you; now you may approach them and seek what God has written for you. You may eat and drink until the white thread is distinct from the black thread of dawn; then you shall complete the fast until night; and do not approach them while you are devoted in the temples. These are God's boundaries, so do not transgress them. It is thus that God makes His signs clear to the people that they may be righteous

                RED now its lawfull in night to approach women.. (days of soum)
                GREEN it was clear before the current law people use to sexually approach their women due to the human nature of sex hunger .
                BLUE its bit tricky eat and drink(consume) ? either its general food or sex hunger in both cases do it untill the changing of sky colors..
                BROWN complete the fast untill night ( do not sexually approach them untill night)
                NAVY even when you are (akifoon in masjid) do not appraoch your women.. (this point need discussion)

                all that time the only restriction in all of the verse is to stop doing sex in day light hours ..

                now lets see what is eat and drink either its food or just a idiomatic term used for enjoyment..

                let say = consume/enjoy/get satisfied fully it can be anything .. food , sex, travelling, drinking wine, riding horse, living in posh houses, cloths wearing...

                so you can enjoy fully anything of it and idiomatically we use this word ..

                according to the context the consumption is regarding sex , so before the dawn do it like 3 4 or 5 times so that you get fully satisified with sex hunger so finish that sex hunger untill the night... rotfl brickwall (sorry guys for detailing it according to my own lens)

                now sometimes the answer of your probelmeitc points lies with in next verses... we are hunting our BLUE point right now

                lets put it on test and see what next verse is saying...

                2188 And do not eat your money between you unjustly by bribing the decision makers so that you may eat a part of the money of other people sinfully while you know!

                the exact same root is used there for eating or consuming or enjoying or taking ....

                so with respect to that the blue point is clear now.. with cross referencing of quran..

                there are some parts of world where sunlight hours are long like hell its illogical to be hungrey for about 20 hours
                if you are hungry your modd will get off , then you start doing trouble
                if you are hungry you try to dishonest with your duties at work
                if you are hungey its difficult to do work that required continious energy like labour work in hot desert..
                lot more things..

                NOTE (all these are my personal understandings everybody need to verify it as per 1736)

                i just highlight the point what i have with fasting such a long hours

                  I agree with NOON WALQALAM that it does not the translation of "sana" as lunar month because in this case the verse 4616 will be sensless to mean that we are responsible for our self at the age of 3 AAM = Solar years! 3=40X25/309!

                    Thank God, you see what I have been seeing. Every time I want to talk about this I notice people get very defensive. They don't want to hear that they might be causing inconvenience to others. Now I have not seen a verse in which God tells us to be risky for the surrounding people. I can no more see any logic in some of the excuses given to me about the alleged fasting.

                      46-15 is not saying what you said.

                      40 years is too old for what verse says. And what to do between 30 "ashor " and 40 years ?
                      Chiddatou is not rochd (wiseness)
                      40 lunars month is a good age for first pray to Allah.

                      Peace

                        salaam

                        One of the teachings of Hajj and Omra is that people making Omra have to fast from speaking to let Hojjajs debate at a good level.

                        my opinion is that free-minds administrators have to remark that people making Omra are making too much noise here and Hojjajs escaped away.
                        i hope that they will find a way to better organize the hajj in this "blessed web site"

                        Peace

                            My sectarian aunt has been doing that since I guess the 80s because her kids don't fast.

                            You can do charity by doing volunteer work )

                            In that sense I am fasting too. In fact, I talk to my fiance only after breaking the fast because that's when he is at home from work.....!

                            I noticed something from Joseph Islam from the link of Wakas

                            Question 1
                            Assuming your fifth reference to be 2187, you have missed 260 where 'kulu wa-ishrabu' is used. In this verse there is clear mention where Prophet Moses asked for water (istasqa) and 12 springs gushed forth and everyone knew of their 'dinking place' (mashrabahum) and then God says 'kulu wa'ishrabu' from God's provisions (rizq). Do you still think that 'kul' and 'ishrab' here fits in completely with your understanding of relax and rejoice?

                            I know he won't see it. But that question makes me question How do we eat water?

                            Question 2
                            You have also missed another crucial phrase "kulli wa isharabi" in 1926. The only difference between this and the ones you have noted is that the phrase 1926 makes use of refers to a female . So, having noted this verse in conjunction with the previous verses which refer to 'rutab' (fresh dates - 1925) and 'sariyaa' (stream - 1924), do you still think that 'kul' and 'ishrab' fits in completely with your understanding of relax and rejoice?

                            I feel sad that he is not looking at the entire verse 1926.

                              So you mean Siyyam is merely abstinence from speaking to others and involvement of pure intention of God by being in a secluded place from dawn to dusk..

                              But i strongly not your comment denial of eat and drink.. if so why God used eat and drink "Haththa' until white thread is clear from black thread... doesn't it mean stop eating and drinking when you come to that point.. Quran definitely order to fast 3 days of every visible full moon and abstain from eat and drink during day till night fall but abstinence of eat and drink is not the only only thing.. but to abstain from various other worldly matters which we normally do and probably seclude to privacy the most of the time..

                              What to say????

                                in addition to that,, Allah orders for errors and of people to fast consecutive 60 days.. and further says it is a punishment for them for their work to feel.. So if fasting 60 days is sort of a punishment, how can it be a punishment if one just seclude without speaking to any ? no way unless he or she is deprived of food and drink to during day time for consecutive 60 days.. just imagine with your logic..am i correct?

                                Even i believe whoever recorded the order or revelation it is correct.. order of revelation of chapter 2 where fasting is mentioned as an act which makes a person pious is revealed as 87th order of revelation.. whatever of fasting (as an act) mentioned in the quran is appearing after 87th revelation and not before 87th.. this is clear that even these punishments of fasting or during haj were revealed after 2183-2187.. Because if allah not define the time of fasting how even as a punishment they would fast.. Allah is very specific.. just think about it deeply.. In quran the mere word fasting (not order to fast) would have appeared before chapter 2 183 -2187.. it's fine because no ordering..

                                Study and let me know...

                                  341 He said ?My Lord, make for me a sign.? He said ?Your sign is not to speak to the people for three days except by symbol, and remember your Lord greatly, and glorify at dusk and dawn.?
                                  1910 He said ?My Lord, make for me a sign.? He said ?Your sign is that you will not speak to the people for three nights consecutively.?

                                  You were mentioning Allah got it wrong.. by saying Three nights and three days in two separate verses.. i think what allah mentioned is absolutely right.. It is mentioned 3 Ayyam and not 3 Nahar, had it mentioned 3 Nahar it is definitely contradictory.. Nahar is day light time absence of pure darkness because of night.. Nahar (day) + Lail (night) is Yaum, so what Allah mentioned is three complete days (ayyam) which included three nights (lail)

                                    So if i get this right we are to fast 3 days entire days or fast on the night of 3 days? Apologizes if i misread you.

                                      that's totally different.. here in 341 and 1910 fasting is not mentioned, but only of not talking to people is mentioned.. verses 2183-187 is more than enough explanation for fasting..341 and 1910 is totally away from the subject and it is specific for Zackaria.. As a sign only .. may be hidden reasons could be there why allah asked him not to talk.. may be to avoid leaking of the message or unnecessary arguments with people and family or etc...

                                      In the case of Mary abstain (siyaam) is mentioned.. only not to talk.. but she was not told to use as a sign language .. how she will say to people i am abstaining from talking.. what's the big deal just saying.. sorry folks i am not talking today .. by just saying this nothing of special topic will be out with the people.. Further Was Mary really abstaining or Did she really get as a directive from God to abstain from talking with people or just asked to act? She was not given an order abstain but God says "just tell them i am abstaining.. May be the similar to Zackaria command, but without sign lang.

                                      But fasting in 2183-187 is crystal clear abstain from food drink most of worldly matters such as sex, and getting secluded ..if 2 consecutive fasting is punishment and it strongly believe one month fasting also can be a sort punishment.. but not three days even any part of the world in any season..but option of exemption is given...

                                      Further in those verses.. it is stated who missed fasting can fast in OTHER DAYS... but not stated as other days of of shawwal or any other months before next ramadhan.. it is also key in my opinion of 3 days...IF allah not intend hardship i think this could be the best.. one month is always hardship for half of the people in the world not for those who stays at home for who are hard workers and specially living in non muslim countries..

                                        I am not good at fasting that i can tell you.

                                          that's between you and your Lord... After all the real successful people (believers) are mentioned in Chapter 23 first 9 verses.. i think chapter mumin titled.. in it fasting or pilgrimage is not stated to be a real believer.. it shows it is not for all in common.. whatever is mentioned in those 9 verses definitely can b and should b done by all who think they are muslims and specially beliver at least in their best part of life...
