cococandy:Ok now I understand better but to be honest with you this things does not affect Islam in any way because Islam has not changed at all nor does the rules guiding. A true Muslim must abide and follow the Qur'an and Sunnah of the Prophet which is the hadith and this has not changed since 1400 years ago up until now and I don't think it will change. Allah has said he's the one who sent down the Qur'an and he will protect it from any kind of corruption or being tampered with. The Prophet (saw) in his last address to the Muslims during the minor hajj has told the Muslims that Allah has perfected their religion for them on this day has chosen Islam for them as their way of life both the ones at that time and those to come after them. Whatever is haram(prohibited) during the time of the Prophet is haram even now and whatever is halal (permissible) still remains the same. 22 Likes 5 Shares |

@Cococandy I hope I am not late to the party. When it comes to understanding a religion, it's best to read the holy book by yourself. While it superficially makes sense to consult the self-proclaimed adherents of the religion, you should have it in mind that each adherent has his/her own "interpretation" of the Qur'an. The "interpretation" a moderate Muslim born and bred in a secular society will give you will differ from that of a Muslim born and bred in an Islamic society. Some "interpretations" paint Islam as a religion of peace while others do the opposite. To avoid being misled by any Muslim's personal interpretation, I will advise you to do your own research and read the holy book for yourself. Your research should focus on the history of Islam, its Prophet, and holy book; find out what scholars think. A lot of muslims come about their interpretations in any of the following ways: 1) ignorance and presumption of the Qur'an due not having read it or blatant dishonesty, 2) cherry picking (picking the good parts only), and/or 3) complete understanding and submission to the entire doctrine and scriptural injunctions of the Qur'an. This is also applicable to Christians. Regardless of how any Muslim came about his/her own "interpretations", it's best to do your own research and read the Qur'an by yourself and formulate your independent thoughts on the matter. Nb: I am an atheist. I am encouraging the best approach of inquiry. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

You have good points. However, The purpose of this exercise is to also get the subjective interpretation of Muslims. So, varying interpretations were welcome from the beginning. I wasn’t setting out to only understand what Allah and Muhammad teach but also how the followers have understood those teachings and how it affects their lives in those specific categories I listed. There’s definitely a whole lot to unpack in understanding any religion but this thread is limited and specific in what it’s looking for. Thanks Martinez39s: 1 Like 3 Shares |

cococandy:That's the importance of adhering to the teachings of Muhammad (peace be upon him) which is the hadith. For example the Quran says pray (hadith explains how to pray), the Quran says fast (hadith explains how to fast). The hadith is basically the explaination of the Quran, it's what puts the Quran in context and prevents subjective understanding. You can read the Quran yourself (go to quran.com). 2 Likes |
