A Non Muslim came to a Shaikh and asked: Why is it
Not Permissible in Islam for a Women to shake hands
with a Man? The Shaikh said: Can you shake hands with Queen
Elizabeth? The Non Muslim said: Ofcourse not, there are only
certain people who can shake hands with Queen
Elizabeth. Shaikh replied: Our Women are Queens and Queens
do not shake hands with strange men. Then the Non Muslim asked another Question: Why
do your Girls cover up their body? The Shaikh smiled and got two sweets, he opened the
first one and kept the other one closed. He threw
them both on the dusty floor and asked the Non
Muslim: If I asked you to take one of the sweets
which one will you choose? The Non Muslim replied: The covered one. The Shaikh said: That's how we treat and see our
women. Women should not be like the Moon which
everyone can See and Admire, they should be like the
Sun which makes th e Viewers Lower their Gaze. Non Muslim: Show me God if he exists. Shaikh Replied: Look at the Sun Man Replied: I Can't see, the Rays hurt my eyes.
Shaikh Said: If u can't look at the Creation of God
then how will you be able to Look at the Creator?? Lastly the Non Muslim invited the Shaikh to his house
and gave him Grapes, the Shaikh ate them, then he
offered him a cup of wine, the Shaikh refused, the
Non Muslim asked him how come you Muslims are
forbidden wine and eat grapes although the wine came
from grapes? Shaikh Replied: Do you have a daughter?
He said yes, the Shaikh asked him could you marry
her? the Non Muslim said no, the Shaikh said
SubhanAllah, you marry her mother and can't marry
her although she came from her

Interesting analogies used!

Pointless and silly.

None of these are reasonable explanations. The Imam is just using rhetoric to dodge the questions.

Aaaahhhhhh!!!!!!!!!

Only in islam!

What is this phucked up Crap doing at the front page??!

Atheist:-D:

Of course, the conversation can only be understood by people who've got brains (I mean real brains).
If you can't make sense out of it, it's either of 2 things: either you don't understand English or your brain isn't just developed enough to comprehend such a brilliant show of logic!

apoti: Absolute crap

U can never understand conversation

@OP what is the moral of your post?, Muslim Clerics are smart and Non-Muslims Silly?

So what's the point here? Is it suppose to provide answers to hard questions about Islam or what? i find it extremely weak.

careytommy: Aaaahhhhhh!!!!!!!!!

I see more to come..


Using analogies that create more questions than they answer is a fail in my book. Then again, the clever shaikh could read through the gullibility of his opponent and used that to his advantage.

fail

passing by

muslims and their low key idealogys.

Masha allah nice debate.

"To avoid being banned, please ensure that your post is not offensive to Islam."

Really? But this post itself is offensive to women.

How can you compare a woman to a piece of candy or a grape

bullshit topic.

Basic:

Classic False Dichotomy.. nice try

All the etiquettes mentioned are present in other religions but our non Muslim brothers don't like them, so they remove or just ignore them.

No be say the ones wey dey cover their faces fine. Why i go look am b4?

intresting!!!

. . .and now over to islam bashers!

Very dumb response from the muslim cleric. Imagine the answer he gave as to why their ladies cover their body. So the ladies are the ones who deserve men with uncovered face and body abi?

Now i see why boko haramists kill without any genuine reasons to back up their acts. Pathetic

NB: MOD you are so free to ban me. Thank you

The last point is silly tho. The point being tried to make is wine is nt fresh and pure as grapes ryt i.e it might have been altered with chemicals et al. What does it have to do with marrying one's offspring? Stupid reasoning I tell you

which one is this "To avoid being banned, please ensure that your post is not offensive to Islam" ?
@op
the answers were on point even when the write-ups could have been from a comedian.

This is really nice. I admire the analogy presented. Will apply the proper covering for my daughter. really nice and i appreciate it
