    Jaxal, Peacefulmuslim and Stillearning are actually MENTIONED in al-quraan

    Hast thou not turned Thy vision to those who declare that they believe in the revelations that have come to thee and to those before thee? Their (real) wish is to resort together for judgment (in their disputes) to ASH-SHAITAAN, though they were ordered to reject him. But Satan's wish is to lead them astray far away (from the right).
    When it is said to them "Come to what God hath revealed, and to the Apostle" Thou seest the Hypocrites avert their faces from thee in disgust
    (4/60-61)

    God predicted thier kufr from the beginning ) Alhamdulillah.

    And it's not 'a RUSUL' unless in your retard's english there's such a thing as 'a MESSENGERS'.. ) Stay another decade in the middle east, then maybe you can pick that up

    Did you speak like to your ex wife? is that why she left you? If you dont agree with what is being said then stfu. dont spew hatered from your mouth towards those who dont agree with you.

      No, I only speak like that to cry-baby losers who get laughed at after being turned down TWICE Was the crying therapeutic enough? Btw, Jackie says hi.

        I would like to know where in al quran do we have the right or are encouraged to call each other distasteful names? Please post the verse/s?
        Are we encouraged to laugh at others in al quran? If people are calling to follow the quran, lets try to do it all the way and not be hypocrites ourselves?
        I don't have a problem with people losing it occasionally, but there is a limit.

            What injustice has been done to someone here personally? This is a discussion about the quran, one's duty is to spread the message, if there is someone not getting it, will one stoop to insults?

              SC if there is someone not getting it, will one stoop to insults?

              For not getting it? Definitely not. For behaving miscreantly, definitely so. Im all in favour of a peaceful discussion but some can't tell what that is. You disagreed with me in our PM discussion, did I lash out at you?

                Why would you lash out at me for disagreeing with you? When someone is not getting it you seem to insist that they do...and when they still don't agree...you call them unbelievers and hypocrites....what possible good can come of this? Leave them be if they don't agree, you can only be stronger instead of dirtying yourself with er, dirt.

                By the way...which PM discussion are you alluding to? The one we had I did NOT disagree with you, I disagreed on something that happened on a thread, NOT via PM.

                  Why would you lash out at me for disagreeing with you?

                  I wouldn't. Disagreement doesn't bother me in the least.

                  When someone is not getting it you seem to insist that they do

                  No. My insistence is upon an ordered dialogue which I do my best to implement personally.

                  you call them unbelievers and hypocrites....what possible good can come of this? Leave them be if they don't agree, you can only be stronger instead of dirtying yourself with er, dirt.

                  Sc, I dont label ppl things. I look to the book and see how thier behaviour is according to the book. The book is a functional book, its not there for our casual perusal instead of use in daily life. To me, 'kafir' , 'munafiq' and so forth are classifications and help me see the strategies of interaction. There's no point in reminding via the ayaat to a kafir, for example. This whole discussion faltered precisely because I was speaking to ppl who do not believe in the ayaat. That's why no matter how many times you quote it for them, they wont listen to you. Im sorry this has to be the case, but hey-ho, that's life.

                    Salaam Sc,

                    I guess this is between Mq and Jaxal only.

                    But ,maybe they can discuss this somewhere else!?

                    Peace Sis Majidah

                          Peace,

                          before this part is deleted or not, let me say, mquran, you have used the quran this time to justify the verbal abuse. How strange use of the verses?

                            salaam Elena,

                            You don't know what is actually going on between these two persons.

                            I think it's disgusting but I think they need to clear that out.

                            Take care!

                            Peace Sis Majidah

                              Delete? What on earth for? People should know who's been harassing women on the forum. Its like the publishing the paedophile list, good for people to know in order to avoid certain people. Jackie seems to agree.

                                Why is it strange? If my use is an ABuse you are free to take me up on it. I am ready to correct myself if so.

                                  Hey, if you look at Quranic use of kufr and nifaaq, you'll find that all of us have kufr and nifaaq unless we reach the status of Ibrahim. Its only when we act to cause mischief that we actualise the kufr within. Kafir is not a racially pejorative term in quranic use. Its a state of being when you reject or conceal the universally divine truths.

                                    I agree, someplace far far away...I mean who airs their dirty laundry on a PUBLIC forum? Who's Jackie anyway? What's up with the ex wife? Paedophiles yet? Wait is Jackie the ex wife?!?

                                    Why do we even NEED to know? Before anyone can say "it's none of my business", it IS a public forum and all of YOU reading the thread have these mysterious questions dancing in front of your eyes too...it disturbs you deeply, you can't sleep...now one needs to know when the next episode of this soap opera airs.

                                      SC, like most people with no argument, he needs to resort to personal remarks. If he makes his bed, he'll have to lie in it, wont he?
