You don't have access to the full medical information and you don't even know if it was the type of hospital they went to/medical negligence. Medial negligence cannot be a reason to avoid surgery that could save anyone.

There are many who have undergone same surgery and are walking fine till date

Also, please increase her calcium intake, more milk, meat, bones, eggs please

Hello parents and guardians and health practitioners in the house, I want to ask can a 2year old bow legs straight naturally or only with surgery.

People that can't create life have a lot to say about what life, death and afterlife is.

Jokes on you!
Christianity Etc › Re: After Death: What Happens? Where Will You Be? by Sterope(f):
Please don't stop there, tell us about the complexities of this world since you are so knowledgeable about the afterlife?

sonmvayina:
Life and death are one and the same thing. It is just a change of world.
Death(Lucifer, Inanna) is but an illusion. It is deception. That is why Marduk and Inanna are enemies. Inanna is not his spouse. Though she is sometimes referred to as the "queen of heaven".
We are spiritual beings living inside a physical body made from Dust. Death is returning to our default state.
In the movie Casper the friendly ghost. Casper was asked what death feels like, he answered " it is like being born again, but backwards.
The purpose of life is experience.....

For every news [i.e., happening] is a finality; and you are going to know.


And they say, "There is none but our worldly life, and we will not be resurrected."

If you could but see when they will be made to stand before their Lord. He will say, "Is this not the truth?" They will say, "Yes, by our Lord." He will [then] say, "So taste the punishment for what you used to deny."

Those will have lost who deny the meeting with Allāh, until when the Hour [of resurrection] comes upon them unexpectedly, they will say, "Oh, [how great is] our regret over what we neglected concerning it [i.e., the Hour]," while they bear their burdens [i.e., sins] on their backs. Unquestionably, evil is that which they bear.


- Surah Al An'am



The The whole point of Qur'an is Afterlife. The repetition occurs in every single chapter and almost all the verses. Tell your devil companion and shaytan that they have got the wrong person.


UncleAyo:
I personally believe that death marks the end of conscious existence. Once the brain ceases to function, all experiences, thoughts, and awareness also come to an end. The cessation of brain activity, as observed in medical and scientific contexts, supports the conclusion that consciousness is inextricably tied to the physical brain. As such, no brain activity means no self-awareness or ability to experience anything beyond death.

The phenomenon of death is just like our state of nonexistence before birth. Before being conceived, one had no consciousness, no memory, and no self-awareness. Death is a return to that state of non-being. It is likened to a dreamless sleep or the absence of experience altogether.

There is no empirical evidence to support the existence of an afterlife, reincarnation, or any continuation of individual consciousness. Instead, life is a finite experience bound by the laws of biology and physics, so it is important you live your life to the fullest with the understanding that that is the only existence you have.

Somebody should please help me with evidence of afterlife. If possible, a video evidence that can be empirically examined.


Sterope (my good friend) your contribution will also be great here.

Before colonial masters came, the king owned all!!!
They left, they didn't return authority to those they hijacked it from.

Start your analysis from that point. You have a traditional seat in a community, many will vote to maintain it because it is culture. So it should not matter where their salaries come from because it comes from US, our taxes, NOT the governor.

That verse started from verse 22 and was talking about marriage and 24 clearly was talking about conducting marriage. Subtracting married women from that equation is telling you that married women are forbidden however for captives, their married status no longer holds. Now they have joined categories of people you can marry.

You have another verse of the Qur'an that says

Marry those of you that are single, (whether men or women), and those of your male and female slaves that are righteous. 24:32

You know another interesting fact: Bukhari collected over 600 000 hadiths, only 7000+ were graded!!! So no, don't come at me with hadiths ever unless you understand the complexity, the differences amongst Muslims or the Qur'an .

Have a good day sir.


smokinloud:
I quoted the Qur'an 4:24 with the hadiths. The hadiths I quoted are Sahih and the chain are proper. You think you're the only one that knows the science of hadiths. When did Sahih hadiths becomes unauthentic and how's it against the Qur'an. Show me where the Qur'an forbids having sex with sex-slaves. Qur'an 4:24 says you can have sex with whom your right hand posses (your slaves) the exception are free women that you need to marry. Abi this one thinks he's talking to an ignorant?!.

Cool off biko

I don't support perpetrators regardless of what they claim or who they claim. If I had an ounce of power, death sentence please

My issue is labelling it "Islam". Majority of the Muslims in the UK are not into it nor would they support them based on religion. Maybe culture and familiar, yes but not religion.


TV01:
On the contrary, in this instance the authorities and institutions that should have dealt with this and nipped it in the bud, not wanting to be labelled racist or Islamophobic were all hesitant to act. Going as far as to turn a blind-eye or even cover up the offences. If the perpetrators had been white or other than Muslim, it wouldn't have persisted for as long as 5 decades according to some accounts.


A case from the Islamic scriptures is easily made. My take here is the "social outworking", but if you would like to go there, I or any number of NL Religious thread posters could oblige if so inclined.

We hear the "culture not religion" trope a lot when defending infarctions by Muslims. But that itself is an indictment of Islam. Of all religions, Islam colours, and in many cases hollows out indigenous culture the most. If Islam is what it claims to be and does what it purports to do, regressive cultural behaviours should be extirpated, not live alongside the religion.

Yes, the west and it's people are largely "sexually liberal. How does that make them "game for abuse". And at 11-15 years of age, which was the age range of most of the victims and at which statutory consent cannot be given?

And when you say "white women", is that not racist? What about white Muslim women? Or devout religious white women of any faith? Quick to play the racist Islamophobia card when such clear bigotry permeates your own beliefs and thinking.

I love it when non Muslims quote hadiths carelessly especially one that doesn't abide with the Quran. What do you know about how Hadiths came to be?

I want you to go through this link very carefully.

https://qurantalkblog.com/2023/01/20/abu-hurayra/

When you are done, now research how hadiths were selected and graded and the troubles we have with hadiths till date.

Oga madam, you don't have any moral ground to stand on because your prophet was a rapist and he preached rape. In surah 4:24 allah actually ordered muslims to rape their captives, you only must marry a free woman
Foreign Affairs › Re: Kemi Badenoch Demands National Inquiry Into Rape Gangs By Muslim Men, Officials by Sterope(f): 9:18pm On Jan 11, 2025
I understand but I am reiterating that when it comes to minority they make the issues all about their religion or ethnicity. No one does that about white people. Crime is crime with them except the minority!

No UK scholar has come out tell us what and where it is stated in the Qur'an. More cultural than religion biko. The general belief that white women are sexually liberal therefore they are game for sexual abuse because their culture is sexually liberal.





TV01:
Thank you. I won't gainsay the point you make about what the religion says. Not because I agree, but because from a social POV, what is of interest, especially to the non-religious, who know or care little for the scriptures or doctrines, is the "outworking" of the religion.

The title of this thread in part reads "National Inquiry Into Rape Gangs By Muslim Men". Needless to say, across Europe's liberal western democracies, where there are significant minority populations of Muslims, this rape gang phenom occurs. In the UK, it was mostly Pakistani led given they are the majority of this minority population. But this crime occurs whatever the major national\ethnic background of the Muslim men. In fact, in one UK town (it has been documented as happening in over 50), where Somalis make up the majority of the Muslim population, it was Somali led.

Regardless of claims, as to what the religion says, why is there this dissonance? Why does this occur? Does it not happen in Islamic majority countries due to the different treatment of believing vs. non-believing women? Or due to the harshness of the penalties?

If you were in my shoes you won't have mentioned the erroneous, can't see the hypocrisy yet? Lol.

I am pretty sure a lot of other priests disagreed with him. I don't care who it was.

I have done my best to educate you. Good luck.

Ojuntana:
It is not you that labelled the interpretation of the verse erroneous. It was Wilberforce who did and he convinced the Queen of England then. Even in the US, it was a priest who started the campaign against slave holding. I have the facts with me.
Like I already told you, in Islam, you're to follow the teachings and actions of Muhammad and his teachings and actions involved slave holding and slave trade. Are you aware he sold slaves as well? So how can you claim slavery is erroneous is Islam? Do you then agree that Muhammad was erroneous in his ways?
Trans saharan slave trade was carried out by Muslims from Arabia just as trans Atlantic slave trade was carried out by Christians from the West. If you say saharan slave trade was not about islam, what makes you think Atlantic slave trade was about Christianity?

Your research is not based on the hadith or the Qur'an. It is simply a revisionist approach to Islam. Sexual slavery was permitted by Muhammad in an hadith. A quranic verse also supports it. Both are supreme laws of Islam which have not been abrogated so I don't see how you can make research that contradicts Islamic texts

You won't find an equivalent in the Qur'an despite your wishes and errorenus assumptions.



Numbers 31:7-18

They fought against Midian, as the Lord commanded Moses, and killed every man. 8 Among their victims were Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur and Reba—the five kings of Midian. They also killed Balaam son of Beor with the sword. 9 The Israelites captured the Midianite women and children and took all the Midianite herds, flocks and goods as plunder. 10 They burned all the towns where the Midianites had settled, as well as all their camps. 11 They took all the plunder and spoils, including the people and animals, 12 and brought the captives, spoils and plunder to Moses and Eleazar the priest and the Israelite assembly at their camp on the plains of Moab, by the Jordan across from Jericho.

13 Moses, Eleazar the priest and all the leaders of the community went to meet them outside the camp. 14 Moses was angry with the officers of the army—the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds—who returned from the battle.

15 “Have you allowed all the women to live?” he asked them. 16 “They were the ones who followed Balaam’s advice and enticed the Israelites to be unfaithful to the Lord in the Peor incident, so that a plague struck the Lord’s people. 17 Now kill all the boys. And kill every woman who has slept with a man, 18 but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man.
Deuteronomy 20:10-14
As you approach a town to attack it, first offer its people terms for peace. If they accept your terms and open the gates to you, then all the people inside will serve you in forced labor. But if they refuse to make peace and prepare to fight, you must attack the town. When the LORD your God hands it over to you, kill every man in the town. But you may keep for yourselves all the women, children, livestock, and other plunder. You may enjoy the spoils of your enemies that the LORD your God has given you.
Deuteronomy 22:23-24
If within the city a man comes upon a maiden who is betrothed, and has relations with her, you shall bring them both out of the gate of the city and there stone them to death: the girl because she did not cry out for help though she was in the city, and the man because he violated his neighbors wife.
Judges 5:30
They must be dividing the spoils they took: there must be a damsel or two for each man, Spoils of dyed cloth as Sisera’s spoil, an ornate shawl or two for me in the spoil.
Exodus 21:7-11
When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back again. But he is not allowed to sell her to foreigners, since he is the one who broke the contract with her. And if the slave girl’s owner arranges for her to marry his son, he may no longer treat her as a slave girl, but he must treat her as his daughter. If he himself marries her and then takes another wife, he may not reduce her food or clothing or fail to sleep with her as his wife. If he fails in any of these three ways, she may leave as a free woman without making any payment.
Zechariah 14:1-2
Lo, a day shall come for the Lord when the spoils shall be divided in your midst. And I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem for battle: the city shall be taken, houses plundered, women ravished; half of the city shall go into exile, but the rest of the people shall not be removed from the city.
