خمر Khamr is not wine or intoxicant whatever
-
Peace Obour.
I am saying Khamr is the outcome of whatever you say you are "Squeezing". The end product is khamr ..There is no fruit/vegetable called khamr. Khamr is what you get after ""Squeezing/making from "fruits.
I am also saying in that verse the context of the dream is making and serving khamr.
My understanding.
GOD bless you.
Peace. -
My thoughts are that you are an idiot
Cmon HP_TECH i know you are better than that. Why are you so hostile?

So you have never felt in your life genuinely that a person you were interacting with was some kind of an idiot?
Because in this forum I literally genuinely feel it ALL the time.The level of stupidity is insurmountable. It is like some of these folks literally do not have the basic capability of analysis, critical thinking and context reading.
They are rather so driven by the possibility of being the first to discover something different or the possibility of demonstrating something in a new light that "no on else was able to before" that they end up looking like stooges foaming out the mouth. Ridiculous and pathetic sight for me to bear.
There is this culture of complete and utter disregard for common sense, and historical facts when it comes to Quran and Arabian culture that it perplexes me. When it comes to Judaism or "Christianity" or any other period in history they make use of all the historical data and evidences from culture, tradition, etc... but when it comes to Quran they completely ignore those same tools.
I am utterly disgusted and annoyed by the ignorance and stupidity.
Stop acting as if I have said something offensive. Even the prophets grew frustrated with the ignorance of their people. Look how many times the root word jim ha lam is utilized.http//corpus.quran.com/search.jsp?q=ignorant

And when said Musa to his people, "Indeed, Allah commands you that you slaughter a cow." They said, "Do you take us (in) ridicule." He said, "I seek refuge in Allah that I be among the ignorant."And We led across (the) Children of Israel the sea. Then they came upon a people devoted to idols of theirs. They said, "O Musa! Make for us a god like what they have gods. He said, "Indeed, you (are) a people ignorant.
604
Indeed, (there) is for you an example good in Ibrahim and those with him, when they said to their people, "Indeed, we (are) disassociated from you and from what you worship besides Allah. We have denied you, and has appeared between us and between you enmity and hatred forever until you believe in Allah Alone." Except (the) saying (of) Ibrahim to his father, "Surely I ask forgiveness for you, but not I have power for you from Allah of anything. Our Lord, upon You we put our trust, and to You we turn, and to You (is) the final return.Perhaps my response could have simply been peace and then I should have turned away from ALL of you
However others will continue to feed this topic when it should not even be dignified with a response.
Therefore, I stand firm for those of you who lack sternness against the ignorant ones who are pumped up by their ego to say the most foolish rubbish about Allah while they do not know

Because in this forum I literally genuinely feel it ALL the time.Look the way you say "My thoughts are that you are an idiot" is not actually going help you.
-
So if someone is acting stupid, you would not correct them and make them aware of their stupidity?
You see me as acting inappropriately and you intervened.
I saw the OP the same way and I intervened.
What is the difference?If you are going to criticize then simply point out that is incorrect on their argument, not just hurling insults. It would make things go haywire.

Sometimes stupidity deserves not to be analyzed but simply called out.
If I see my brother grab a turd and lick it while recording himself, should I stand there and analyze his shortcomings and weigh out the pros and cons of eating turds with him?
No, I am gonna tell him off, if not slap him across the face. -

Peace hawk99
I don't know what is khamr so I can't give you a correct translation of 2219. Thats why I start this topic.
Please consider 3612 and this phrase
In some English translation that I looked we have
pressing wine or squeezing wine. For me it's not make sense. And in Persian translation we have means squeezing grape to make wine, it make sense to me but there is no grape (in arabic ب in this verse.Now either these translations are incorrect or as HP_TECH says I'm an idiot one and pressing wine is something normal that everyone do.

You did not begin this thread by claiming you didn't have a strong command of the english language, nor that you were seeking help in understanding something. You jumped straight into saying x isn't y because of z. That is why I took a stern and firm stance to your post.
Pressing wine doesn't mean that one is actually pressing wine! (which is actually oxymoronic and a bit idiomatic)
It is just an expression!"Pressing" is an establish verb for squeezing any kind of fruit into juice, so pressing wine inherently entails the usage of grapes.
People in this thread have not realized that the issue you are having is a result of you not being a native speaker. Pressing wine is an intuitive expression in the native language.I am going to repeat myself.
As you yourself have found out by now, the expression pressing wine is a very commonly used expression in English and it does not contain the word grape in it, because it unnecessary. Wine comes from grapes. Finally it is a bit of an idiomatic expression.The same way that the expression in English is bereft of the word grape, so it is in Arabic. Period.
Refrain from trying to make discoveries and read more English books and familiarize yourself thoroughly with the language you are analyzing before making ridiculous bold claims.

While i will admit that i am not english native speaker but i never heard "Pressing wine" is a idiomatic expression. If it is then what is the metaphor for "pressing wine"?

Peace Obour,
"Pressing wine" you may assume is from grapes, but other fruits
can be used such as apples and pears, or a mixture, pressing
wine is just what it says. A point of the ayat is what Joseph
saw in a dream.

I said it was bit idiomatic, meaning similar to an idiom. An idiom is not a metaphor.

Hi all. Peace. You may squeeze solid, not liquid. By squeezing solid you may extract/expel liquid from it. Example By squeezing/pressing mastard seeds in expeller (machine) mastard oil is expelled/extracted.
