I pray the way that traditional Islam teaches .

Salams Jonny_K. Very interesting input, thank you for sharing it

interesting theory/explanation. I like it. But how does it explain the fact that Iblees, a Jinn, didn't prostrate to adam? Something inside Adam's mind did not prostrate to himself? Doesn't seem to work .

Mashallah Honor, your story is interesting and im sorry you had to go through that.

Now that I think about it the stories of my 2 relatives were more of a momentary death experience (not near death). According to ppls that were there first hand , they were actually washed for burial because their heart had stopped, hence clinically dead for a long time.

The female relative had began to see herself in a farm field , in between absolutely GIANT fruits and vegetables. She said she saw carrots the most. She started running and running until the fruits and vegetables got bigger and bigger and she just felt like she was in a most amazing place. She said when she got to the end until she could see something more beautiful (she says she couldnt POSSIBLY describe it, and you had to be there to get it) she awoke. No one could beleive what happened.

The male relative saw himself on a giant field of green grass, and saw an enormous fortress decorated with light. He decided to approach it and inside were people full of noor. He then awoke.

Sure, why not P . Though keep in mind neither are prophets. Dhul Qarnayn is either Alexander The Great or Cyrus The Great.

2 very very distant relatives of mine (who I haven't even met) have suffered Near Death Experiences, and both experiences were very similar. Though its interesting that NDE's in the west that happen in hospitals that you hear about seem to share the same sort of detail, but the ones I heard of were people on their deathbed at home (overseas in Indonesia) but also shared the same sort of detail. If your interested, I'll tell you what they saw.

Peace and love...

These personal Jinns are called Qareens. They are the things that persuade you to do bad things. With having a peaceful manner inside and controlling your temper, following virtues you will tame this Jinn and make him 'as one' with you in peace and virtue just as the prophet Muhammad s.a.w did. . Though its important to note that all Qareen are Jinn, but not all Jinn are Qareen. So there are free-roaming living Jinn out there who aren't appointed to humans to annoy... salams

it was a time of fight back or be killed. as simple as that. we were heavily outnumbered, prosecution was a constant reality. It was a necessity in order for this message to survive and reach you today. salams.

There is dispute on whether Luqman was a prophet, the most commonly held view is that he was a wali (very trustworthy, wise person). Same with Zulkifl. It might be Ezekiel as mentioned in the Bible also, or some people say it might be Gautama Buddha (as I do) . i hope i anwered your question..

Hey brother, I don't quite understand what your question is.. but im assuming I know what you mean All are prophets, but only some are messengers. hope i answered your question... OH yeah im new to this forum aswell so salam to all the brothers and sisters.
