    Peace marie, all

    In 342, alAAalameena is not an adjective of nisa'e, it is "mouthaf ilayh", and it is a plural regrouping males and females, thus it is used in the masculine form. It has not to be feminine although nisa'e is feminine.

    PS Nice to see you back, and the baby too sun

      Peace be upon you Marie,

      I guess what I am saying is I am not sure what teh exact word should be, but the implication is knowledge. The verses you just gave a to this understanding, however, I am not sure what word should be used.

        2624 He said The Lord of the skies and the earth and what is between them, if you were sure/certain.

        To be sure/certain is to have KNOWLEDGE. To believe is to not have Knowledge, just to "think so".

        perhaps u are a bit unclear about the word "certainty"! to have knowlege is being alimun, to have belief is being muminun, to have certainty is being muqinun! u cannot just interchange word because u think so! -)

        infact belief and certainty are better related, as demonstrated by these verses

        22 This is the Scripture whereof there is no doubt, a guidance unto those who ward off (evil).

        23 Who believe in the Unseen, and establish worship, and spend of that We have bestowed upon them;

        24 And who believe in that which is revealed unto thee (Muhammad) and that which was revealed before thee, and are certain of the Hereafter.

        they believe by the unseen and by that which is revealed to muhammad and that which was revealed aforetime! they believe by it..is god giving incomplete instructions?

        and by the akhirat they are certain! how can u be in certitude about the akhirat when u do not have (personally verified) knowlege by it? but it is belief that lends them conviction! -)

        or should the process of verifying the akhirat be carried out via re-births...till verified? -)

        2625 (Pharaoh) said unto those around him Hear ye not?

        2626 He said Your Lord and the Lord of your fathers.

        Notice "fathers" and not "mothers", this will tie in to what Marie recognized in regards to masculine.

        yes...this verse talks about fathers so masculine.......342 talks about nisa...so ? -)

        idolfree1 wrote

        One must STUDY in order to go from belief to KNOWLEDGE, and the God is Lord of those who achieve knowledgeabout a particular subject within the universe.

        Please take no that the verses use LORD of the knowers/knowledgeable, not God of the knowers/knowledgeable.

        huh? the quran says "lord of the mashrik and the magrib" rather than "god of maskrik and magrib"...what does that imply! -)

        who was the rabb of pharaoh?

        by the way...there are a few pending questions have u verified god? -)

          Peace marie, all

          In 342, alAAalameena is not an adjective of nisa'e, it is "mouthaf ilayh",

          I rephrase my last statement When I used the word "adjective" I meant "qualifier" independently how it is considered grammatically (ali3rab is not my cap of tee).
          if this word should be read as AAalimeen (the knowlegeable), then there is a mistake because nisa is feminine and we have to read AAalimat instead of AAalimeen

                1255

                Here is the example of youssof being .

                Now your turn, just give one verse alluding to that the root means "world", in the singular form.

                I will give others examples unless if the god wills.

                  The "ending" is always happenning, and can thus be verified over and over and over again. Cause and effect, have you never witnessed the effect of a cause? Once you do, over and over and over again, then you can say you are CERTAIN of the "ending", because all causes have an effect.

                  Yes. If you meditate, you can come to a point where you are conscious of just being consciousness. You will see that there is a part of you that percieves yet is not percieved. Further, the mathematical basis of all creation gives evidence of this divine intelligence who percieves but cannot be percieved.

                  is the content of the quran decided by mortal or by god? -)

                  I dont take "quran" as the name of any book, so we can start there. Also, if you are referring to the book called "THE Koran" without authority, then please verify what you mean by "decided".

                        please be aware

                        in verse 343 where it says "Nisaa Al-Alameen", Al-Alameen IS NOT AN ADJECTIVE, it can't be because the thing that is to be described DOES NOT HAVD THE AL (Nisaa), therefore Al-Alameen is called "Muddaf Elahe"

                        and in the verse it means the women of the worlds

                        Salam

                            Yes. If you meditate, you can come to a point where you are conscious of just being consciousness. You will see that there is a part of you that percieves yet is not percieved. Further, the mathematical basis of all creation gives evidence of this divine intelligence who percieves but cannot be percieved.

                            basically, it is just ur belief...right? there is no evidence...if there is do present it to me! -)

                            I dont take "quran" as the name of any book, so we can start there.

                            start from the book which i am quoting from, the 1 u also quote from commonly known as the quran! -)

                            Also, if you are referring to the book called "THE Koran" without authority,

                            E by whose authority do u call a book a "book"? did the word drop from the heavens? or did a book drop from the skies with "book" written on it? -)

                            "85.17" Has not there come to you the story of the hosts,

                            "85.18" Of Firon and Samood?

                            "85.19" Nay! those who disbelieve are in (the act of) giving the lie to the truth.

                            "85.20" And Allah encompasses them on every side.

                            "85.21" Nay! it is a glorious Quran,

                            do u find in that book the narratives of aad and thamood? the book which those who disbelieve belie? that is the quran! -)

                            so this book, which v both quote from, were its contents written by muhammad of his own fancy, or were the contents revelations from god? -)

                            and yes on what grounds have u changed aalameen to aalimeen?

                              in verse 343 where it says "Nisaa Al-Alameen", Al-Alameen IS NOT AN ADJECTIVE, it can't be because the thing that is to be described DOES NOT HAVD THE AL (Nisaa), therefore Al-Alameen is called "Muddaf Elahe"

                              yes...they are changin of their own desire "aalameen" to "aalimeen"...and i am going to ask reasons behind this...tomorrow somebody will say the bay and yay and tay and thay are all mixed up!

                              but if they say it is "knowlegeables" then it is an adjective.....so it should agree in gender! -)

                                  yes if it is an adjective then it has to be feminine because it describes the women, exactly as Marie said

                                      Corrected TB. Move on. Why? There are plenty of members who are trying to change the meaning of Qur'an here on FM. Stay and put them to rest.

                                        It is a duty according to the Quran

                                        but it seems they don't want to rest therefore we will not rest
