Needing some sort of explanation
-
Well I suppose I just don't see any real evidence that the Quran is the word of a god, or that gods actually do exist. I was a very strong believer, but over time I've found the justifications that I once believed in and used to support the Quran have faded away until I simply couldn't believe. My loss of belief had very little to do with the hadiths, but was primarily the Quran and the whole concept of a god, besides I was a believer in the Quran Alone at one point as well and that didn't last long.
I've also begun to hate the character of the Abrahamic god and am unable to understand why he would create this world that contains so much suffering for both humans and other animals just to make us all play a little game. The worst part is the punishment of hell that awaits those that can't believe in him or follow his at times irrational rules. He didn't even need to create people that would become kafir, yet he did it anyway knowing full well that they would end up burning in hell.

I believe an intelligent human being, like yourself, would not believe that this world were created by itself. Therefore, I will not assume that you do think that way.
Now, I can note that you are not happy that God created us as Free well creatures. You are not Happy that God knew that most of humans will fail the Test, but still created them. And because of that you concluded that God Created and Hardwired the Humans to be either Believers or Disbelievers.
Will...Why do you think that some True Believers become True disbelievers? If God Hardwired them, when born, to be Believers, Why they became disbelievers? Why Abraham, whom his Father was a disbeliever, became one of the Strongest Believer? Why Noha Son is a Disbliever, when His Father was not?Brother Bubble, make your peace with God and your War with Evil.

(39-53)And if you decide to make your peace with God, Make sure to Submit to Him by following His True Guidance and not making peace with Him and submitting to others Guidance; otherwise, He will never Give you the Peace you asked for.
Bubbles, Listen to Me Make Your Peace With Him.

I don't think you quite understand me. I believe that free will is an illusion and that our existence and all of our decisions were determined right from the beginning of the universe. Every decision that we make is only the result of biological or environmental factors, if our biology or environment were somewhat different we would be completely different people. What I don't understand is why god who is supposedly all-knowing allowed for kafirs to even exist. If the end destination of the kafir is to go to hell, then nonexistence is preferable.
Will...Why do you think that some True Believers become True disbelievers? If God Hardwired them, when born, to be Believers, Why they became disbelievers? Why Abraham, whom his Father was a disbeliever, became one of the Strongest Believer? Why Noha Son is a Disbliever, when His Father was not?
People's beliefs often change with time, but all of these changes were predetermined by god if he exists. He already knew that Abraham would die a believer, and that Noah's son would die a disbeliever.
Brother Bubble, make your peace with God and your War with Evil.

If I believed in god and actually liked him then I would make my peace with him.

I was losing interest in Islam and I suppose I got kind of tired of debating hadiths.
I had a faith crisis recently and I no longer believe in the Quran or God.Bubbles,
You no longer believe in God, do you believe in devil, iblees, satan, whatever we know him as, If your answer is yes then Please start believing in God, or to be more accurate in Al-La ah The La ah, and also because devil believes in God or Al-Laah.
If your answer is no, meanings you also don't believe in Devil, then lets do an experiment And assume that there is nothing no planets, stars, earth, etc nothing, but who and what is doing this assumption, you your conciseness is doing this assumption so nothing exists but your conciseness, you might argue and say that for my conciseness to exist i have to exist too physically, bodily etc. But what do you think what is the proof of existence, reception and process of data from senses, its a mirage, once before time existed it was not the case HE who is ALONE or Al-ONE thought of time, so did time happen, we whom find our self living are very fortunate to experience LIFE, with all its superiority by being in Hueman from, we will hopefully Evolve, and all who are having life of Para-dies here will have life of paradise there. Don't know how to go further about it, have had quite a bit of faith crisis in life too, from dipping the fly to here was quite a journey. But could not stop believing in a Supreme Will, The Programmer, whom everything is also part of.
your posts are very nice i thoroughly enjoy your thoughts, when after your the La ah passes them to the display.
Linguistic is the key, Al-La ah spoke to Moses, European scientist say he was high.
I am a bit too, wanted to reach you done that, not a regular writer, scared actually among the company of quite GEMS here.

A Contract, for you, with yourself. -

I don't believe in the devil either.

I found what you wrote a little difficult to understand, but I think what you were getting at is that our own existence isn't provable. Like you said it might all just be a mirage, then what reason is there to believe in anything besides our own consciousness, like in god? By the way many philosophers bring the existence of our consciousness into question, it isn't inconceivable that thoughts could could exist without a mind to think it.

I disagree with the "environment determines actions" theory. I grew up with twin brothers who were my friends. They had the same environment but one chose to do good things and the other cose to do evil things. I belive that a person carries an understanding of right and wrong from previous lives and that keeps a person from following the wrong way even though his environment encourages it.
On the other hand I have come out of some myths my parents taught me that I didn't have any sense of and just accepted. It is hard enough to find the right path in this world without having parents leading on the wrong path.
God only punishes sin that is consciously done but the wages of sin are death whether God punishes or not. -
There's no such thing as 'FREE WILL", meaning to do whatever one pleases. People don't live without rules and/or justifications and jurisdictions, not even in jungles, in anything or everything one does or wants to do. IF you do, then one must face the consequences (sometimes severe).

I had a faith crisis recently and I no longer believe in the Quran or God.Peace,
Respectfully.I hope you remember me, because i sure remember you.
Dear sister, why? Why do you feel like losing Faith?
You don't believe in The Quran? The God? Why, if i may ask?
Sister, please, don't take that path, ask The Exalted God The Most Merciful, The Most Wise to help you solve this problem.
Believe me, God has The Planand The Solution and it does work. It's humans who don't want that solution.Don't give up, sister, please.
Don't give up and ask The Exalted God The Most Wise to help you find the way.
I will pray, God willing, and ask forgivness for you an ask God to help you out, God willing.May God help you out in these hard times.
Peace. -
Wow, two of my old threads have surfaced up lately, how strange.
Bubbles I feel quite similar to how you feel. Or I did... Totally different journey than what you're going through, but I understand where you're coming from. It's so hard to find TRUTH. It is so hard! I never really had any sort of feeling that God existed, but I recently have begun to feel he does... Somehow. But about Islam and religion in general, I have been learning for years, and I had no sense of what might be true (I only have very few things I feel are truth now, and they're not even necessarily part of Islam). You probably have learned a lot from the Internet and it's hard, confusing, frustrating because you hear the more extreme views of all sorts of Islam's "sects". I know that here on Free-Minds, people stay away from sects and just want to be Muslim, but somewhere, we can feel that there's division even among them (the ones who follow Code 19 and those who don't for one), and obviously between them and the ones who follow Hadiths. And it's as though there's no "less extreme" way of fully submitting to God. I mean, it feels as though to fully submit to God, you need to find the ultimate truth about every possible issue, something that is impossible. It's as though it's impossble to fully submit to God.
I'm not sure quite where I was going with this, but I guess it was just to say that I feel what you feel. I feel that all this information is sometimes bringing me further away from God rather than closer.

hi, yes we do have free will. God gave free will to Adam and Eve when He told them not to partake of the tree that God told them not to eat from. He said you can eat any tree in the garden but you are not to eat from the tree of knowlage because if you do you shall surley die. also satan and his angels had free will in Heaven but becasue of pride and rebellion God threw them out from Heaven. You also have free will to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savour or reject Him. You have free will. but we will all reap what we sow. We are not puppets and God will not force anyone to come to Him it is a choice. But life without God is a life not worth living. God bless you in Yeshua's name. Leanne
