2856 has the answer
You surely cannot guide whoever you like ˹O Prophet˺, but it is Allah Who guides whoever He wills, and He knows best who are ˹fit to be˺ guided.

A lot changes when we change mentally just how it is instructed in the Book. So yes, it is an active inner commitment.
If there is a test you end it by working on a solution. Lets just say it is linked to expansion of the consciousness that constantly works like a radar and wants to be useful as well as nurtured.

Misguidance is the result of rejecting inner voice.
I would call concrete steps for true guidance to be rather subjective but yes, mind change is a must.You will always know whether a person is truly following the Book.

There are people who call themselves Quran alone but find it too offensive to live it because they are so perfect in their own eyes.

You guys are still doing the traditional fasting?
But traditionalists replaced consciousness with materialism. That’s why, they are focused on the body and see no sign from the fasting they do.

Consciousness is connected to God and the universe. It has the blueprint of what is outside. Body is only like a kid or a vessel you are responsible for. Next time if you get pain just do a simple testing by listening to this https//www.youtube.com/watch?v=2w0oRSN0AVM&t=537s

Hard to accept the traditional understanding of that verse. I would rather focus on what God says. It seems he doesn’t use Khatam as “last” anywhere in the Quran. I’m also not sure why mullahs had to even corrupt the meaning.

There is no point in sending another prophet if the deen is already complete and we are to judge by Quran alone.

Follow what you understand of the Quran as if you never knew Islam. I mean simply do a cleansing of the mind just how the verses say. Rest will be history! Avoid what mainstream islam has to say for it seems to be about following Quran upside down.

The word worship doesn’t appear in 5116. The claim is about taking jesus and mary as 2 other gods. We do know that roman empire at the time was making changes to Christianity using paganism to convert the pagans. It is quite possible that they were trying to figure out how to set up the trinity. Turning mary into a god probably was an option they considered. Some people wrote a book on this topic. Not something I would read. But here is glimpse of what you would find in it

The Holy Mother Mary Is GOD introduces the greatest mysteries which have been obscured from humanity for thousands of years. This unfoldment of the truth that we all have been searching for is revealed to you not only in the author's words, but from the actual words of God. This Holy book carries the Light and Love of God and you will feel it when you are reading it. Like a great gateway, The Holy Mother Mary Is GOD ushers us into the new age that will bring us into a world of peace. This book is for everyone no matter what system of belief one holds. We are from one spirit and the source of that spirit is Holy Spirit. Learn how the oneness of all exists in three aspects and how the Holy Trinity misinterpreted the true understanding of the third aspect of God. Learn about the Divine plan that began 2,600 years ago which planted the seeds for God to come to this Earth as a beautiful woman named Mary.
Book title The Holy Mother Mary Is God

Salam..

I am immensely pleased to produce my guidance to you all. Reflect and apply sense.. If I do make sense let me, if I don't make sense, then raise your concerns in order things can be clarified..

2142 The fools among the people will say what turned them away from their acceptance (Qibla) which they were used to on it. Say! the enlightenement (Almashriq) and the benightedness (Walmagribi) is for the God. He guides whom He wills to a path straight.

Thanks for this silver lining.

Doesnt Qibla and kabbalah sound the same?

Jews say it actually means reception. Thats another word for "acceptance". However, they have chosen kabbalah to mean tradition instead. They warn against searching for truth in its contents.

Alexa!
What is it?

Thanks.

Experiencing Quran is otherworldly though.

Question Do we already have these basic signs!

Those are consequences of following the Book. Basically, you are getting yourself connected to God. It works like a compass or lets just say Alexa.

Peace Sister... Hope you are doing well...
I think it is little hefty to rush on this topic and say polygamy is not allowed...

Trust me, I’m serious.

Yes... If one takes the verse 2432 in one angle we may end up yes polygamy is not allowed.. Apart from all other verses which is manifested that polygamy were practiced and never discouraged by Allah ..

What he instructs is what matters right? Then there is
3350 O Prophet, indeed We have made lawful to you your wives to whom you have given their due compensation and those your right hand possesses from what Allah has returned to you and the daughters of your paternal uncles and the daughters of your paternal aunts and the daughters of your maternal uncles and the daughters of your maternal aunts who emigrated with you and a believing woman if she gives herself to the Prophet if the Prophet wishes to marry her, only for you, excluding the believers. We certainly know what We have made obligatory upon them concerning their wives and those their right hands possess, in order that there will be upon you no discomfort. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful.

When it comes to this particular verse, it doesn't literally mean never marry widow or divorced, If one marry only unmarried... Encouragment here is manifest... Why not prioritise those who not at all married in life rather than who have already married in life..

Nah, they are considered single
And those who are taken in death among you and leave wives behind - they, wait four months and ten . And when they have fulfilled their term, then there is no blame upon you for what they do with themselves in an acceptable manner. And Allah is Acquainted with what you do. There is no blame upon you for that to which you allude concerning a proposal to women or for what you conceal within yourselves. Allah knows that you will have them in mind. But do not promise them secretly except for saying a proper saying. And do not determine to undertake a marriage contract until the decreed period reaches its end. And know that Allah knows what is within yourselves, so beware of Him. And know that Allah is Forgiving and Forbearing. 2234-235

So when Allah says by this verse marry those who never married or single doesn't directly give us a criteria that people are not allowed to marry multiple women.. Is it?
On top of that if we take the verse in this manner, suppose one man is married already has a wife (free or not free) but marrying another woman who is single.. So.. Marry those who are single doesn't mean literally polygamy is not allowed...

As we saw above, only Prophet was given the privilege. But the verse I am having trouble finding also mentions umm sons were married to their moms at the time. God told them to not divorce just because they became believer. In short, if someone married multiple women but later finds out that it isnt approved by God there is no need to divorce. We have one (inactive) brother here who practiced polygamy before coming to Quran alone. No one ever pointed finger at him for that. This community is very understanding.

Well don't misunderstand me.. I am not polygamous and not even married and happy being single out of destiny...

Don’t you dare calling it your destiny.

Further to that, if God states not to marry teo biological sisters at a time, then the question is what about two women at a time who are not biological sisters? Of God said two women at time by this verse then seal for polygamy.. Unless if anyone argues that the word doesn't state biological sisters but just sisters in faith then perhaps polygamy is not allowed..

Which verse?
Societies have this tendency to change here and there. That’s how polygamy gets in but God wouldn’t want families to break!

4129
Could be saying a man can't love all wives equally and it's not his fault but he shouldn't completely neglect one. And since it's saying not to leave one hanging, doesn't that show polygamy is allowed?

Its more like a warning. If one of these wives feels left behind she has the right to divorce as per the next verse.

I have also heard traditional Muslims say that because 43 says "marry two, three or four but if you fear you won't be just then marry only one", it shows polygamy is recommended because it first says marry multiple women only one if fear won't be just.

No, they intentionally misinterpreted the verse. Its been talked about before. The verse is about pairs of women. Also starting from 41 shows this is an administrative instruction. I mean its for the entire community and not for each man’s private life.

Polygamy isnt allowed. See
2432 And marry the unmarried among you and the righteous among your male slaves and female slaves. If they should be poor, Allah will enrich them from His bounty, and Allah is all-Encompassing and Knowing.

We also have
4129 And you will never be able to be equal between wives, even if you should strive. So do not incline completely and leave another hanging. And if you amend and fear Allah - then indeed, Allah is ever Forgiving and Merciful.

Back in the sunni days, mullahs told me “be equal” basically stood for just feeding the wives. They vehemently opposed the idea of one lady feeling left out.

Many traditional Muslims say all men are naturally polygamous

Nope. Only some but that doesn’t automatically make polygamy halal for them.

symbolism of the one eye which seems to reflect Dajal etc

That’s eye of horus. Basically, the thing came from pagan religion of Egypt. That’s much older than Islam. He still has followers though. The dajjal character is made up. Sects use it to demonize diff groups.

There are hadith about there being very tall buildings in the end times

Nabateans already had tall buildings.

and if I remember correctly, homosexuality being prevalent, etc.

Its actually not as prevalent as it was before. Only the talk is.

But how can these hadith predictions seem so accurate?

Rather forced on current events esp at the time of war. Some groups mimic the hadiths to make them look real. ISIS is notorious for doing that. Agenda might be recruitment.

I’m not against the idea that humans can predict future but as I understand now, if everything already exists in God’s records then predictions are not set in stone. We can urge him to replace them with what we consider desirable or we can personally take action against them.

The guy is using hadiths to debunk hadither Hamza. It might work there since hadiths typically are used to change Arabic words into what they call Islamic words. For instance, ibadah means service but hadithers will tell you it means worship. So yep, Hamza should be sticking to meanings from hadiths.

I believe that Quran is not a book of science but of guidance for mankind.

The guidance does rely heavily on science but not the myth driven mainstream one. Some things are supposed to stay unsaid even if the evil keeps prevailing '(

Peace Reel

I don't understand where you got this technique from? It seems like something spiritual or new ageish?

I just took the verses about fasting and experimented with them by subtracting all that we were told in sects. Whatever God tells us to do in Quran always gives visible results. Quranic fasting seems to open the door to another reality of ours. Ironically, you will not go very far if you abstain from eating and drinking.

New age might have similar stuffs but their explanations are not without distortion and disagreements. Their blocks come from subtraction of God. In Quran these issues are corrected. I guess thats why we have verses like this

Say, "If mankind and the jinn gathered in order to produce the like of this Qur'an, they could not produce the like of it, even if they were to each other assistants." 1113

Peace

Peace

I'm so confused about how we should do Ramadan.
Can everyone explain how to do this when following the Qur'an alone?

Thanks

Glorify God for 3 days in isolation. If you start to see fan with thread like blades rotating and becoming bright in your mind's eye, congrats you are on the right track. Otherwise, you might suddenly end up with flow of information that leaves you mentally lit up. If those dont seem interesting you can use those 3 days to get your wish fulfilled. Its a must that you take a break in between to eat and drink.

Peace

Sectarian al-Albaani

That the purpose of marriage is repose as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning) “And among His Signs is this, that He created for you wives from among yourselves, that you may find repose in them, and He has put between you affection and mercy. Verily, in that are indeed signs for a people who reflect” . But this is not achieved in this kind of marriage. https//islamqa.info/en/answers/82390/misyaar-marriage-definition-and-rulings

A friend of mine is the one who asked me that he wants this type of marriage because he cannot afford all the financial rights that comes with normal marriage. He was asking me what I think and I told him it's not permitted and he told me why its not permitted and I didn't have the answer. I don't think there is a family who will accept this. I think most of the women accept this are those who are divorced and living independently from their family and don't want to have unlawful sex.

He is in Saudi Arabia and he tells me many Saudis do this.

God bless

He should marry someone who understands his situation and might even agree to contribute financially.

Hi!
It is really funny to see a hadith follower (Halis Aydemir is a Turkish hadith follower but as I understand from his latest videos he do not accept all hadith ) that choose one of the Qıra'at as the true one. I thought they were following every Qıra'at.

I tried the system on other versions. Didnt work. Feel free to run your test.

I did research Qıra'at also. I think its history is artificial.

Salma bro jkhan.

You wrote "Even Quran was distorted .but Allah preserved it as He promised. .thats none other way but with numeric pattern"

Quran is distorted? You mean errors?

What about warsh and hafs version

Which did God reveal?

https//www.free-minds.org/which-quran

God bless all

That paper was written before we found out Hafs was correct.

Both Jews and Christians already had their infighting going on at the time. Holy texts arent easy to get rid of. Original ones had to be there with certain groups. But apparently, even from distorted bible it is possible to get that Jesus taught people to be whole which in Arabic means muslim. I think christians do a good job of being that.

please see Ibn Kathir tafseer

Thanks

He needs to define what karma is. Same is needed for "circumstances of birth".

I can be wrong but in my view, he is talking about the formula governing this world. Quran gives us guidance on how to navigate through it. I cant see anything more.

It's that time of the year....... apparently. Bump.

Do you have the source for this

Traditional understandings of 2184 openly admit that it was common for followers to choose not to fast and fidya instead by feeding a poor person.
