Oddness Of Muhammad Ancestry??
-
And if Muhammed's father was an Idol worshiper as stated above by others and that his name "was obviously given to him because of the idol he worshipped" as stated above then dont you think this would have influenced Muhammad in some way.
Can you say the same about Ibrahim?
And what about Moses? He was brought up in the court of the Pharon? -
This is true, I was asking this question to thise who know more about the subject then I do. I am a Christian and am here to learn. So I dont completley know this. I am simply taking peoples posts and turning them into my own questions. To see what the answers are. Because I normally get many answers. Sometimes I get facts that can be proven, but mostly I get oppions. Which in the long run mean nothing. Please dont get me wrong I am not saying Muhammad was an Idol worshiper. I am asking those who know his history if it can be proven without a doubt if he was not.
Sincerely, Abuja

Peace all,
As for me, I'm not supporting the supposition that Mohd was an idolworshipper. Who his parents were and what they did could mean a lot, or it could actually mean nothing at all. To me, this point is totally irrelevant. I was just commenting on the names from Jafar's initial 'listing' of Mohd's ancestors. It's as if the names go in progression, from the darkness idol worship into the "light", if you get what I mean.
-
Yes I understand what you are saying. And really it dont mean anything. Unless there is no proof that Mahammed did worship Idols and I am not saying he did I am asking can it be proven that he did not? And what does his entire name mean? These are my two questions if you can answer them it would be a great help.
Sincerely, Abuja

Even if they were idol-worshippers, isn't that the whole point of prophethood? If a prophet came to a family and society which already are monotheists and good people, why is there a need for him..? A prophet/messenger is a warner for bad people, isn't he? Abraham's father was an idol-worshipper, so is Moses's adopted family, etc...

I think the question makes no sense.
Seriously who cares what their names were or who they worshipped. What does this have to do with Mohammed? You never read the quran I guess. Most people follow what their fathers told them. Only the righteous will follow what is right even if their own father will threaten to stone him to death (as in the case of Abraham). So really what does so and so's name have anything to do with Mohamed? What does his full name's meaning have anything to do with his beliefs or what he preached? My name means vengeful and judgmental. I'd like to think that has nothing to do who I am and what I believe in.
I'm sorry this is silly.I guess since you're coming with a claim that makes no sense you're the one who should PROVE he was an idol worshipper. Good luck.

Peace Abuja,
This is the whole point, how can we 'prove' anything that happened so long ago, today??? I dare say it's impossible---either way.
And Boost, Abuja's just doing some mind exercises--exploring. This is no harm done in asking questions and questioning things. Harm is more likely to come with rigidity and closing others off, creating a sense of separateness and shame.
peace Peace, man!

Yea you're right I guess it's ok to call a deceased believer a kafir until proven otherwise ... knock your socks off

spoken from a person that never met me it doesn't say much )
So which one of us is the judgmental one?
P.S. Name-calling of any kind will not be tolerated. So watch yourself.

In case anyone didnt not read all my posts on this topic especially you BOOST. I explained that I raised my questions from someone else's post, the person who started this topic. And secondally no one has even attempted to answer my questions. This tells me that either NO ONE KNOWS THE ANSWERS OR NO ONE IS WILLING TO ANSWER BECAUSE THEY DONT LIKE THE ANSWERS THEIRESELVES. So here where my questions again, what does Muhammad's name mean in full? and Second can it be proved that in his life that he did not worship idols? And again please keep in my I am not saying that he did worship Idols I am simply asking can it be proved that he did not worship Idols. I believe these are two very simply questions that anyone that follows the Quran as there book of Faith should be able to answer. I am just trying to understand why no one has even attempted to answer them yet.
Sincerely, Abuja

And who told you I was even addressing you? I was addressing the person who posted this thread.
As for your question, I still see no point in finding out someone's full name in order to know whether he was a believer or an idol worshipper. I never heard of such a test.

I don't need to meet you. My oracles tell me everything!
But you do know that I was kidding, right? peace
either way, I know a girl who has a thing for vengeful and judgmental guys. -* -
Abuja,
Recenlty "Experts" have discovered that "Mona Lisa" had just delivered a baby when Da Vinci painted her. They somehow managed to see her underwear, which at that time was used commonly when women were pregnant or had just delivered the baby. That also explains the smile on her face, she was happy for her baby.
Now I ask you, Do you believe this????
It could be the truth, but there is no f... way we're gonna now for sure.
Same goes for Muhammad. -
what does Muhammad's name mean in full?
Muhammad Ibn Abdullah
The Praised One From Servant Of GodThis is the 'full / official name' which Muhammad often used on his letter.
Reference
http//muslim-canada.org/charter1.html
http//www.touregypt.net/featurestories/catherines5-14.htmWhat really 'unique' is the name of Muhammad's Father in full.. (When the 'official' history is correct and not some Arabs / Quraish fabrications)
Abdullah Ibn Abdul Muthalib
Servant Of God from Servant of Moon Godcan it be proved that in his life that he did not worship idols?
According to the 'official' history, the early muslims prostrate to a cubic shaped house full of idols.
And Muhammad is said to often encircling the cubic shaped house full of idols.
And God (The True God) protects the before mentioned cubic shaped house full of idols from the attack of elephant riding troops led by Abrahah.IMHO The official history is 'fishy' and I suspect 'some fabrication' by the Quraishy / Arabs to elevate their standing / position among other clans by claiming Muhammad Ibn Abdullah is a member of their clan. Although I have no prove nor evidence at this moment.
Another thing, would you wed your own daughter to your own cousin?
(Ali and Fatima)Salam / Peace

I've found this in the Quran
Yaa-Sin
waalqur-aani alhakiimi
By the Quran Of Great Wisdominnaka lamina almursaliina
Verily you are one of the messengers'alaa shiraathin mustaqiimin
on a straight pathtanziila al'aziizi alrrahiimi
casted upon by the The Hounourable and The Compassionatelitundzira qawman maa undzira aabaauhum fahum ghaafiluuna
To warn people whose fore-fathers were never been warned, for they are unaware.Quran Yaasin 361-6
When the (Quraish / resident of Mecca) Arabs (the qawm/people which Muhammad ibn Abdullah is sent to as God's messenger) is truly a descendant of Abraham/Ibrahim through Ishmail, then the above verse is 'incorrect' because their fore-father has been warned before, but they're neglecting their commandment and plunged into idol worshipping.
The above verse then should readTo warn people whose been neglecting their promise / commandment / shalaat their fore-fathers once pledge.

Believe me or not, I've always "understood" this verse as "to warn people what their fore-fathers have been warned (before)" since I only read it in arabic and never looked at it as meaning "whose fore-fathers never been warned"!!! "ma" in this context supports both meanings but it does not make sense to be "unaware" (ghafilun) of something you are not supposed to know. In that case, the word "ignorant" would have been used ("la yaalamun", for example)
I mean that the "fore-fathers" have necessarily been warned and the message of the prophet PBUH is only a reminder (to the present) of what has been "delivered" before.I looked through most translations in english and french that I have in my possession and the only meaning I found is that you report!! Amazing!
