Meaning Of Taaghoot! by Rashduct4luv(m): 8:59am On Jan 10

All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad sallallaahu`alayhi wa sallam (may Allaah exalt his mention) is His slave and Messenger.

In the Arabic language, the word "Taaghoot" refers to anyone who exceeds his limits, transcends and inflates in Kufr (disbelief). Everyone who transgresses the limits in disobeying Allaah The Almighty is considered a "Taaghi," which means transgressor.

In Islamic terminology, the meaning of ”Taaghoot” is not very different from its linguistic one. At-Tabari may Allaah have mercy upon him stated that Taaghoot" refers to any entity that is worshiped other than Allaah The Almighty, whether that entity forces others to worship him, or they worship him out of their own free will. This includes the accursed Satan, idols or any other entity.

Ibn Al- Qayyim may Allaah have mercy upon him stated that Taaghoot is any entity that makes a person exceed his limits, whether by worship, following, or obeying that entity. He added that the Taaghoot of any people is that which they accept the judgment of, other than Allaah The Almighty.

Obviously, the name Taaghoot is restricted to the one who is content to be worshiped other than Allaah The Almighty. The one who is discontent to be worshiped is not a Taaghoot at all, and he incurs no sin for the exaggerated way in which others regard him.

Allaah Knows best.

Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
There is no compulsion in religion. Verily, the Right Path has become distinct from the wrong path. Whoever disbelieves in Taaghoot and believes in Allah, then he has grasped the most trustworthy handhold that will never break. And Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower. Qur'an 2:256

“And verily, We have sent among every Ummah (community, nation) a Messenger (proclaiming): ‘Worship Allaah (Alone), and avoid (or keep away from) Taaghoot (all false deities, etc. i.e., do not worship Taaghoot besides Allaah)…” [al-Nahl 16:36]

“And (remember) when Allaah will say (on the Day of Resurrection): “O ‘Eesaa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)! Did you say unto men: ‘Worship me and my mother as two gods besides Allaah?’ ” He will say: “Glory be to You! It was not for me to say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, You would surely have known it. You know what is in my inner‑self though I do not know what is in Yours; truly, You, only You, are the All‑Knower of all that is hidden (and unseen). “Never did I say to them aught except what You (Allaah) did command me to say: ‘Worship Allaah, my Lord and your Lord.’ And I was a witness over them while I dwelt amongst them, but when You took me up, You were the Watcher over them; and You are a Witness to all things” [al-Maa’idah 5:116-117]

Your Quran allah is not the same as the God of heaven and earth.

Your Quran allah is an idol worshiped by pagans in Mecca long before Islam started. That's why many of the things you do in Islam are copied from mecca pagans.

God of Abraham created heaven and earth and he is "in" Heaven, not "above" heaven. Don't be stupid.

Ur bleeped up deceptive prophet copied from Arab paganism, Christianity and Judaism. He put it all together and lied that an angel revealed them to him.

Your stupid muhamed stole the identity of YHWH and gave it to his fake allah.

Your allah is a shígídí with two right hands and God of Abraham created humans in his image. So, ur allah is just a useless shígídí and not God Almighty
