I do not want to offend your boyfriend. But he is a hypocrite. He has a duty as a muslim to show you the Qur'an or at least give you the means to read for yourself. He is trying to lead you astray. Read the Qur'an and see what is the definition of a muslim for yourself.
Peace.
Thanks Soof,
I've been looking at a number of different sites on Islam and I came across this one which for me personally makes the most sense/logic. I've tried reading the Qur'an and I've had a look at the Hadith's which I did find contradicting to the Qur'an. I was horrified at some of the content of the Hadiths which made no sense or was just plain silly, such as the ones that imply that women are inferior and unequal (compared to the Qur'an which empathises equality). I'd figured that maybe some of these Hadiths had developed over time due to political or economic reasons. Anyway I'm thankful that I found this site as its answered a lot of questions for me.
Regards,
Charlie
