cyrexx: let us start by defining what we mean by these two terms

1. "a God that is more powerful than God(Yahweh)".

2. Omnipotence.

truthislight: This mod dont seems to listen to the complains in this forum.

cyrexx: easy, man. the man is probably tired of defending Yahweh, you know Yahweh has committed so much atrocities that his lawyers will have a hell of a job to do for him.

besides, you dont want to appear as a rude fellow and give the religionists a justifiable reason to launch some ad hominien against you.

just saying....

shedraq1: xtian mercenaries again,trying to rubbish our peaceful and righteous religion when their pastors are busy collecting tithes and offerings to buy planes,build expensive universities and go after the things of the world..No wonder our beloved Boko Haram is attacking xtians and their churches.

ISLAM is a peaceful religion like we have in Saudi,UAE,KUWAIT,QATAR,OMAN etc

I hope u know everything in life has risk? Even marrying a total stranger, who could have a number of ailments unknown to u or anyone else,even eating has risk? So what are u really yapping about? The same u was calling me all sort of names becoz of this cousin marriage issue (off course u got served) yet u seem not to have the guts to call the American's as such, you would not be the first to hate Islam and the many perished in their rage! The real issue becomes why do animals general have broda - sister relationships and have now of the issues we humans face? The answer is the way we live have effect us to our very genes, and even at that if u expected the Qur'an to tell u the risk of not looking before u cross the road then I think u are reducing yourself to a mere joke, the fact remains the Qur'an calls on man to think reason and ponder! Scientific knowledge literally grew with the advent of Islam, indicates clearly the Ummah is to be a nation of research etc! In essence we are given impetus to find knowledge as it aids us! Btw till date ur evolution theory have not assisted u in finding out why the human genes are depreciating rather than evolving for the better!

LagosShia: this topic about cousin marriage started by MacDaddy a while back was discussed and analyzed from many angles including the health angle.it was proven beyond doubt there is no harm in marrying your cousin when each case is taken individually and proven to be medically sound for the related couples to marry.please review and do not let these confused anti-Islam fanatics mislead you to think this topic has not being touched before:

"Can a Musim marry his cousin?"

deols: You want an health journal, go get one. thats not the basic job of the Qur'an. before we know it, u'd ask why the prophet ddnt talk about Sickle cell anemia and the need for carriers not to marry? or of rhesus compatibility.

Sweetnecta: MacDaddy01 getting emotional blast because he lacks intelligence.

The royal families of Europe are all cousins an they marry one another till date, keeping all the wealth and royal blue blood in the family.

While Allah does not insist that you marry your cousin, the options are there for those who thats a choice for getting spouse.
This option is similar to marrying more than 1 wife: most dont but only a small minority do. So is the case with cousin; not everyone does.

There is a hadith cautioning those who will marry:

In the state of North Carolin, USA first cousins can marry. I guess if America does it, you should not have problem with it.

vedaxcool: The new policy has also been criticised by Iranian
parliamentarians, who summoned the deputy
science and higher education minister to explain.
However, the science and higher education minister,
Kamran Daneshjoo, dismissed the controversy,
saying that 90% of degrees remain open to both
sexes and that single-gender courses were needed to
create "balance".

women-from-universities.html

The above shows govt. Supports for the policy, but let's assume everything is a lie and somehow it is the university's policy, common sense tells us this are state owned varsities hence govt could intervene in this policy mishap yet the same govt has done next to nothing in stoping an unjust policy! Leaving one to wonder whether if a policy from the university was to forbid workers from paying khumus would the clerical establishment not riot to stop such grave "injustice"? Or do Iranian. Varsities now have legislative powers that is final and irreversible? The regime is begining to iritate it's own people who now find it difficult eating normal staples such as chicken, this new foolery won't aid their credibility at home anymore than their deciets over Syria issues etc.

sino: No, its not a case of abrogation, its the permissibility of not doing what is permitted due to the risk or harm that is involved.

fellis: ^They are hardly reported so how do you know that the rates are not low?

sino: Pathetic again, you lack knowledge about islam but you are too arogant to admit your ignorance.
Islam teaches us to be mindful of our health and seek ways in improving our daily lives. Allah says: "and do not bring yourself into destruction"
Allah's Apostle said, "Plague was a means of torture sent on a group of Israelis (or on some people before you). So if you hear of its spread in a land, don't approach it, and if a plague should appear in a land where you are present, then don't leave that land in order to run away from it (i.e. plague)." (Bukhari)
As mu slims, anything that will course us harm are in fact forbidden, a Muslim does not harm another Muslim with his tongue or actions(hadith)...if you think Islam is a stagnant religion then you are wrong.
what are the risk of getting married to your cousins? genetic diseases abi? what are theses diseases? sickle cell, cancer, diabetes, Huntington’s disease etc. If your family does not have an history of any of these diseases the what will be the reason stopping the marriage?
For your information, you need to do a background check on your spouse to know their medical history, marrying from even another continent does not protect you from inheritable genetic disorders.

LagosShia: next time when a western pro-zionist media outlet makes any statement about Iran,the best thing to do is to know the truth.it has being revealed by another western media outlet that in fact the iranian government or the ministry of education in Iran did not ban women from some university courses.the decision to exclude women from particular courses in university was taken by individual univerisities.it was not a government decision at all.in other words,if a female wants to study nuclear physics in university A,and she cannot,she can go to university B and still study it there.

the western media have gone as far as reporting that Iran has banned women from universities.that was how the UK telegraph newspaper framed the story:

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/iran/9487761/Anger-as-Iran-bans-women-from-universities.html

other outlets reported Iran has banned women from courses.they frame up all these stories based on decisions taken by individual universities.such decision is a curricular or academic decision that can be reversed the following year or the government itself can interfere to stop it,or female students can go to court.but in order to spread propaganda,blackmail,hate and lies against Iran and to demonize Iran,the western media have framed different stories attributing the decision to the Iranian government.ofcourse in the end this is all aimed at tarnishing the image of Islam.they forget that literacy rate of females in Iran is very high and Iran is a scientifically,technologically and Islamically progressive country.

next time you hear anything about Iran in western media,do not believe! that is the moral of the story.

sino: Pathetic! yeah they are two different things, likewise rare divorce cases and prevalent or rampant divorce cases.
Next time, try to understand what is written and think deeply before you comment.

SimonAndal: And I am most definitely NOT old! I dunno why people always think that. I'm 18 for crying out loud!

truthislight: I think the mod need to step up his game.

There is this thread on muhamad being a womaniser, we were all learning one or two things from it, the next time i wanted to go through it, it has gone from the board and i was later told it has been moved to the islam section.

It was really frustrating.

Considering that the thread was open for the open religious section.

Quite unfair.

How will people learn when information is hidden?

SimonAndal: It's that time again, when heat waves are the norm and putrid stenchs emanate from armpits as a result of said heat waves. Oh, and when JAMBites run amock in preparation for university.
So I'm creating this thread for y'all experienced folks to help said JAMBites avoid heatstrokes that result from said heat waves. Tell us your experience starting from the day you got your admission letter to your second week of school.
If you can, integrate into your story, what to and what not to bring to school. Thanks.

deols: you can marry your cousins is different from you must marry your cousins.

Of course, consanguinity increases your risks of having genetic diseases and for that reason you can decide not to be engaged in such a marriage. You could also have cultural reasons not to.

the only thing to note is, You are allowed to and no one should prevent you from doing so.

sino: How many of your immediate family members do you contact? talkless of your cousins? for your info, divorce in such marriages are rare and i am sure you know the reasons...

Johnchike: Macdaddy, As an atheist you're denying God's existence thus mocking Him. Similiarity btw an atheist and a satanist= They both mock God. But time will tell.

Omo Alata: How did wearing or not wearing trousers become an atheist discussion?
