PurestBoy: It is either way! People converted from both religions. Nevertheless, Islam is not a religious of quantity rather quality. It is expressed in the Quran that many have gone amongst the inheritance of paradise, only few are remain. Moreso, any named muslim man/woman converted is out of ignorance(of Islam) and probably in dying need of miracles. |

uplawal: That is exactly what they are!Liars! My sister, there will be no deliverance until Jesus is back. The antagonists of Islam have started long ago, right from the prophethood of Muhammad(SAW). Christianity have become a religion of transformation from what was existed to non existing. Thereby, they will never be one in their doctrines. In my younger age in early 80's, what I used to hear about Jesus was only son of God, now it has been promoted to God. However, some amongst them against it, while some are hypocritical, neither to the right nor left. We asked pastors, if Jesus is God, then who was controlling the world when he was killed for three days? Then, you see them performing mathematical logic. Three in one, which Jesus himself never knew. As for miracles. If not because people have been brainwashed, one of the major criteria of FAKE PASTORS is miracle. This is in line with Jesus statement according to thier book. But now you see late world pastors claiming and distributing miracles and wonders like sweets. You see, my sister, as a statement from our Imam shafii, I quote, "All humans are dead except those who have knowledge , And all those who have knowledge are asleep, except those who do good deeds , And those who do good are deceived, except those who are sincere , And those who are sincere are always in a state of worry”. That is the state of world religions. People would continue to be deceived till world ends, and this would capture majority. Islamically, muslims should not have hatred for Christians but engaged in peaceful dialogue with them on worshiping one GOD and not associating partners with Him. Ironically, they will not accept your injunction from Quran and Hadith, because most of their questions lack sincerity. They even hate us more than we love them coz thier minds have polluted about Islam. They even simulate the Quran, named "THE TRUE FURQAN" in order to decieve people. Islam is the only religion that has everything both spiritual and mundane, never mind thier weak and limpid propaganda. Islam is peaceful, being peaceful doesn't mean submissive to oppressors which most misunderstood. Islam is not christianity and can never be. Islam has laws and order guiding every aspect of human endeavors, there is no such laws in christianity. By which I mean that there is no Christian structure of society, no Christian legal system, and no Christian rules as to how a society is to be formed. For example the sharia laws guiding marraige,politics,war etc. And as a Muslim, for one to be properly guided, you need two things; the Quran and Hadith, you don't need much from any alfa/Malam, either in miracle or the likes. And in state of confusion, just exercise patience untill you get the clearity. May almighty Allah increase our knowledge and count us amongst those He will be admitted to paradise. |

@noetic, though u failed to give satisfactory answers to my questions, by acting very typically illiterate. Answering a question with a question. All your questions were answered. You could not be satisfied because you have a mind set. The questions posted to you were just to straightened your reasoning. However, you woefully failed because your response seem incoherence with the questions and full of baseless reference. However, I will point out your errors in order for you to be more objective rather than being biased. Quote Logically incoherence, grammatically inbalance and scripturally incorrect. god does refers to idol only in limited concept. There are many ways in which god had been used and still being used presently. Semantically, olu/oluwa(yoruba), god, lord have the same meaning. Only GOD is differ in which if you translate to Arabic it would mean nothing other than ALLAH. Grammatically if somebody is either claimed or imposted to be LORD of lords, never mean anything special other than repetition of the word lord. Scripturally, where Jesus called himself LORD of lords other than people calling him. You failed!lo Quote "LAILAHI ILA ALAH". Means there is no other gods except ALLAH. ILAHI is a plurality of "lah" 'gods/idols'. From arabic, something physical which you bow down/prostrate, ALLAH from arabic context, one unique and unseen supernatural being. The idolators in pre islamic period refers thiers idols as gods(illahi), just like yoruba(oluwa/olu) and or lord. QuoteSimply incoherence. I never asked for obatala/sango, you should have ref that in no1 response. god and God are the same if not written down. Quote Another shot in the leg. Eloi is Aramaic, just "my God" and not my Gods and another form is "Eli" as it was said by Jesus, which has the root word ALLAH in Arabic. The question is why could jesus used such word if ALLAH is not GOD? ELOHIM is an hebrew word for God and mostly the biblical english writers used it as plurality "gods" in bible and not GODS. If I could be so stupid like you, based on your claim trinity and your first answer god=idol. Logically means you worshiped three idols/gods. Absolutely a failure! Quote There is no correlation in your response. The biblical writers have no other word to call God in Arabic other than ALLAH. |

He wasn't the author of the passage. I think the author's views was basically a reflection from history. There are various authors perceptions regarding the history and muslims lived in cordoba,spain,indonesia,india,philipines,sudan e.t.c. In all, we know how muslims had fell when they started pursuing pleasurable things, however abandoned knowledge and Islamic propagation. |

what makes a true muslim? a wahabbi? a sufi? Niether Wahabbi nor sufi never ever make a true muslim. A true muslim is defined as someone who is totally subsmissive to Allah almighty as commanded in the Quran and, babs787: |

davidylan: This is just nothing new. Muslims have ever been visiting Masjid Aqsa in Jerusalem long time ago as an advice from prophet Muhammad. Islam recognize the significance of three great mosques:the Sacred Mosque in Makkah; the prophet's Mosque in Madinah; and Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem. |

I will presumed that davidylan has started learning Qur'an. However, I will correct you on the following perception: davidylan: The brother has not said anything wrong. What he said is the type of drink people of paradise will drink is not 'khamr' as it is used in the Qur'an. An in refrence to that, Allah says: Qr. 56:18:'Bi akwahabin, Wa baarikin, wa kaasin [/b]min maeen' (english:With goblets, (shining) beakers, and cups (filled) out of clear-flowing fountains) 19: 'La yusadhuna ania wa la yusikun' (english:No after-ache will they receive therefrom, nor will they suffer intoxication) In some translation, wine was used instead of fountain. However, the arabic words you will commonly find in mostly all the verses refering the the drink of the dwellers of paradise is kaasan/kaasin(meaning a cup filled with pleasures) In another verse: Qr52:23 'Yatanasuna fiha [b]kaasan la laghw fiha wala taasima' english There they shall pass from hand to hand a (wine) cup, free from any Laghw, and free from sin (Laghw refer to forbidden items, e.g intoxiacant in english) In another translation: They shall there exchange, one with another, a (loving) cup free of frivolity, free of all taint of ill. 2. NO WHERE did those verses "state it will not intoxicate" . . . that again is a lie by muslims struggling to paper over apparent contradictions in the quran.You are right. However, I believe you understand it better now. Allah instructed muslims to eat and drink out all things he provided for us, however not to drink anything intoxicants. However, if you are forced to do that, probably under inescapable compulsion, there are various explanation regarding this. Some scholars related to ailment in which there is no alternative and or on a journey where there is no other drinks. However, for every reaction to such, knowledge and sincerity are very essential. |

what facts do u need? Grin Grin Grin Grin Grin just google "allat" and "origin of allah" and "daughters of allah". It is you who need to be corrected, you can't know history and or Islam more than the arabs. That is because of the mohammed islamic deception. until i researched the true origin of allah, I also thought that he/it was the bible GOD. Which book/article did you read? Who is the author of the book? Where did he get the source information? Did you want to teach the arabs thier own history? Do you want to know Abu more than his mother? I have clearly explain the the differrence between 'Lah/Al-ilah and 'Allah' relating to Arab language and I gave example from english language, the realtion between 'god(s)' and God. I gave five diff assignment from this which you, neotic systematically dodged. Authoritatively, any website that you may sight regarding Allah was one of the 360 gods of Arabia are mostly christians webs. Most of this authors are totally ignorance of the word ALLAH, arab cultures and Islam in general. There are merely propangandist. Now, I will still refer you to my earlier questions; 1. what is the cognates relation between olu/oluwa(yoruba), god, lord and God semantically. 2. Anlyse the words "LAILAHI ILA ALAH" 3. how would you differentiate god from God if not written down in english. 4. why there is no other translation for ELOI/ELOHIM from the bible original language up till now 5. why this word ALLAH in Arabic bible? probaby you check usual sites: www.answering-islam.org, muslim_hope , e.t.c |

@uplawal uplawal: my dear sister, if one want to be a good believer and have better understanding of this religion. First, purification of intention is very important, that is, an undiluted sincerity. Next is working in the path of shaadah, that is testification that none has the right to be worshipped except Allah, alone, with no partner. Hold to reading Quran and Hadeeth and seek for clearity wherever you are confused. However, beware of many Isalmic teachers coz they too can be misleading. Prophet says, one of the calamities I fear after my demise are misleading scholars(Al-hulamaaul Mudholun). Thereby, he warn us of innovation in religion, always seek clearity on anything outside hadeeth and Quran and I believe you shall be guided. |

@Horus Horus: There is one perception needed to be corrected about Osama. He is just a human being like all other muslims and not a prophet, and as we muslim believe, prophet Muhammad was the last of all prophets. Now, actually, I am not aware of Osama's tattoos, however osama used to be flirtatious before he started practicing Islam properly. Moreso, I have several friends like that too with tattoos before practicing Islam properly. |

Islam is not a religious of magicians where each individual would think he has been authorized to do and undo thereby modifying physical destiny accorded by God Almighty. In one of the prophet Muhammad message to his followers, that towards the end of last hour, people would be selling religion(like bread). If someone could understand this, then, how could you market bread? Understandably, I dont say there is no mircacle, however, 99% of such present miracles performed by humans are pure magics by imploring the JINS. The main messsage of God to human being is just basically obidient, and there is judgement for disobidiency (for example, probably AID), it has nothing attached to performing miracles thereby raising the deads, healing the blinds etc. Now that the presents pastors turn to miracle advertisers which actually have make many to lose thier focus on the part of religion today. For example, in Nigeria today, 90% of the people attends religious congregation with the miracle perception to the to concept of understanding that religious better. In Islam today, people who are not well grounded Islamically easily lose thier focus too, thierby looking for solution to thier propblems in churches. The miracles (like raising the deads) as representes in Islam are those accorded to the prophets mentioned in the Quran for people to believe them, they were sent by God alimghty. The present testimonies are just the main advert tools used by present days churches. @todak, I will tackle you on one point, if raising the dead has been ordained by God almighty to be performed by the present day churches, why cant they place thier meeting point in mortuary? At least, there are many unknown deaths everyday? In Islam, their is recognition for miracles as a sign from Almighty God. Thereby, you see many Islamic mircales performed not by humans but just occurred naturally which nobody has ever been able to disput up till now. Also, there are precsribed prayers in Islam as well for solving one problem or the other. One of this is famous Rukyah(mostly for people possessed by demons) which I personally have witnessed severally. Meanwhile, there is no need for just testimony/advertisement in mosque saying demons has been casted out of someone by a particular Ustaz, Islam in totality against such popularity and announcements. |

Salam everyone, Due to the emphasis on avoiding Riba, I have always stayed away from interests on my savings account giving it out to Charity when i feel it is getting close to 500 naira. Of late i have been thinking of growing my money and some people say FIXED DEPOSITS are allowed while some say no. Pls can anyone with a good Islamic Finance Background enlighten me on this. Thanks The intention of keeping money in bank has to be purified first as to the fact that people do that because of many reasons. Islam against interest and one should try and stay away from as much as one can. Prophet muhammad stated it as one of the sign of last hour that the usury/interest will be so much common that hardly that even muslims could not escape it. This is evidence by many circumstances we find ourself today, for example loan facilities from bank and financial organizations. Now, keeping a fixed deposit is like normal account if the intention is purified from enjoying the interest accumulation. This could probably, for future use or any other genuine reasons. Wallah Alaam. |

gombo_s: First, there has been Islamic civilization right from first century of Islamic era which actually has impact on the developed world today. However, to my believe, civilaization is not just a thing you can own forever. It merely could be acquired/steal by someone else and developed upon. Islamic civilization has almost die completely today in many present Islamic nations coz the muslims have left the scope and modality it requires. The bases was actually nothing but knowledge, which not only limited to the religious rituals but also a structure that encompasses every aspect of human life including law, politics, arts, science etc. For once they left the legend of educating the youngs and seeking for knowledge given the chance for enemy to overcome them and put them in pandemonium, so started the dying civilization. Now, the life of the present muslims leaving under the present western ideololgies have been so mortgaged to the extent that most could not even retraced what belong to them and not. The ingredients of the so called western ideologies and or civilzation has nothing new other than the acquired civilization from the old ones. The intrinsic analysis of the western thinkers has no religious concern otherwise only focuses on materialism and improving thier economy through killing of any religious and non religious barrier. Believe me, Islamic ideologies and western one could not be unitarised coz the two are equal and opposite, taking banking sector has an example. Islam has its own banking rules rightly defined from Quran and Hadith which is formalized under Sharia Law and in opposite to that of western thinkers. |

@todak, @bilms @bilms, thank for your good rsponse. There is no new to activeness in any thread. The destruction of millions in the present age is majorly political, probably fighting for supremacy, if we are to start arguement on the reasons for this we would never reach a unitary point. There will be many questions to ask and to aeach one, there are many answers. One of your opinion is religious, claiming Osama killings. Phylosophically, why should two people fight? was osama jeolous of the bouyant economy, or their supremacy or what was he jeolous of, you need to tell me what is politicking in that. but first answer my questions. That is one view which needs detail. Probably we need to ask osama. Why should America place a check on every country economy and war weapons? AS for littleb I am very sorry, kindly highlight my perverted words propbably I might be corrected. @babs At least I provided a response, this is just an open discussion for us to share and debate. |

A true muslim will never leave Islam. Those convertee are majorly through one problems or the other, be financial, spiritual, physical deformation and the likes and since there is no proper understanding of their religion, they seek for solution anywhere. n_o_e_t_ic: for what? |

@neotic, I believe that the pertinent imperfections of the koran necessitated the hadith. There is no genuineness in your utterances. How will be? The books you don't have faith in, needless to say is basically you don't read it. Your accusations are basically on proxy. The imperfection of the haddith and subsequently the koran,Bin laden is quite right a muslim and ordinary man like you and me. If he has committed crimes as the govt claims, let the law deal with him. On the other hand, religious has ever been one of the major tools for human liberation right a long time. Redeeming the people from slavery, allowed them to practice their religion and emancipating them from opperessors through war. Jihad(commonly term Holy War) not only pertinent to Islam. The Jews believed they were given a divine order to kill every human being who became an obstacle in their way while the christians could not understand the concept of "sword" mention by Jesus untill 1000 years ago transformed to a monolithic and dangerous bloody crusades. However, the wars of the present age has huge political coloration than being religious. Its deeply root cause is majorly known to the fighters. Sharia is an Islamic way of life, not for christians neither for jewish, so, why will someone kill himself because of that? The koran is imperfect from all ramifications including morality and healthy peaceful human relations point of view. A radical but intellectual rebranding of allah, mohammed and all islamic tenets and their followers is necessary. It will never be perfect to you even with no evidence! However, you could not provide a single verse similar to the content. 1400 years ago, still remain unique, lo! |

@badriyah, http://www.channel4.com/programmes/unreported-world/catch-up#2871275 I couldn't watch clip. However I saw an Image with inscription; ", medical injuries that viewers may find upsetting" I said it earlier that people needs wisdom to understand and interpret the technologies. The problem here is nothing but lack of knowledge in the present age. For example, we have ref of biblical prophets marry up to 100 wives, why cant we challenge God for making His prophets to pass through such since He knows it will not suit our present generation. Marrying young girls was a cultural thing, not only a custom in the Arab society to Engage/Marry a young girl it was also common in the Jewish society. The case of Mary the mother of Jesus is one of examples, in non biblical sources she was between 11-14 years old when she conceived Jesus. Mary had already been "BETROTHED" to Joseph at her much younger age before conceiving Jesus. Joseph was a much older man. Therefore Mary was younger than 11-14 years of age when she was "BETHROED" to Joseph. When she first was arranged with Joseph she was between 7 to 9 years old. We Muslims would never call Joseph a Child Molester, nor would we refer to the "Holy Ghost" of the Bible, that "Impregnated" Mary as a "Rapist" or "Adulterer". According to the Priest of Saint Mary's Catholic Church: "Mary was approximately 14 years old when she got pregnant with Jesus. According to the "Oxford Dictionary Bible" commentary, Mary was was 12 years old when she became impregnated. So if I want to be as silly and ridiculous as many of the christians e.g neotic, I would respond to them by saying that Mary was psychologically and emotionally devastated for getting pregnant at a very young age. And speaking of "child molesting", since most Christians believe that Jesus is the Creator of this universe, then why did GOD allow himself to enter life through a 12-year old young girl's vagina? @noetic Please note that we Muslims love and respect Allah Almighty, Mary, Jesus and Allah's Messengers and prophets to the People of the Book (The Jews and Christians). In other words, we Muslims would never make fun of Christianity through such childish accusation like this as many ridiculous Christians do make fun of Islam through Prophet Muhammad's marriage to Aisha has been barbaric. |

noetic: My father used to tell me. "Limit your argument with fools, coz they will make you lose your temper". Your accusation has been cleared regarding Muhammad's father in the ffg link: https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-152378.32.html#msg3746767 The Qur’an was written down by Muhammad's companions while he was alive, although the prime method of transmission was orally. It was compiled in the time of Abu Bakr, the first caliph, and was standardized in the time of Uthman, the third caliph. The Qur’an in its actual form is generally considered by academic scholars to record the words spoken by Muhammad because the search for variants in Western academia has not yielded any differences of great significance and that historically controversy over the content of the Qur’an has never become a main point.Therefore all Muslims, use the same Qur’an. |

buke1987: You've said the truth. Yet, most of them hate us coz they've been brainwashed. Also, Allah encouraged to dialogue with them in the best manner, and if they turn back in falsehood, there judgment should be left for their creator. Believe me out of this hatred is now their propagandist against Islam. Even, to the young ones, telling them lies and likes in so many children bible congregation, birthdays and several others. Let me relate a scenario to you. There was a children congregation, you know, the children were mad to close their eyes, before they open it, they hide the children foods and tell them Muhammad has taken away their food. they were orderred to open it again and they tell them Jesus has return their food. Now tell me, who are they deceiving? |
