    After spending years in the military (Royal Navy) I think I have probably heard every cuss word in the English language, so no it doesn't offend me. I do not use those words, not through any religious reason, but more because I just don't see a reason to use them.

      Can some1 tell me, are we may use such kind of words accordin to Quran?

      I can think of only verse that condemns acts of cursing
      6108

      1. And do not insult those who call on other than God, lest they insult God out of ignorance. And We have similarly adorned for every nation their works; then to their Lord is their return and He will inform them of what they had done.

        1426 And the example of the bad word is that of a bad tree uprooted at the soil level; it has no roots to keep it standing.

        I am no longer a Sunna-rejecter. See 4:59-65, 62:2-4, 3:31, 4:156, 7:157 Messenger teaches and is to be followed and obeyed. Examples of revelation received which is not in the Qur'an: 3:123-126, 33:37, 2:187, 66:3, 62:9.

              Salam Shumali, i think ayat from your post is not connected with this topic u know. Propz anyway man.
              p1993, thanks man. Interesting. But, reading this in contest, u know, i think its about some bigger issues than just average curse words.
              I just think, when i use curse words, does it affects people? On some subconscious level? Thats why i ask directly about this 'nasty' words.

                1753 And say to My servants to speak that which is best. The devil plants animosity between them. The devil was to mankind a clear enemy.

                I was readin Quran today and found this ayat

                  On this forum?... dems da rules. peace

                  Can it then just be censored automatically? On my forum there is a control panel and word censoring. It would make people's lives easier if mild curse words (like sh1t for example) were censored since apparently someone can get banned just for that from here. nope

                          Disdain or fear of a word, or an image, only gives it more power. We all know that God is the Almighty One. Ascribing more power to inconsiderate words or otherwise offensive images is a form of idolatry.
