Rashduct4luv:
Once again you are mistaken again. Our Dhu’l-Qarnayn was a Muslim. Not a Zoroastrian or a Mushrik. And we need no external sources to complete our Books for us.

If your book contradict all other external sources, should we reject all of them (external sources) and accept what Islamic scholars (who are not even in agreement) tell us?

Rashduct4luv:
Well, this is typical of a Christian Islamophobe's comment. They can pick up a text and twist it to suit their whims without regard for the language, grammar, context, settings or antecedents. Can you tell us the antecedent of the two Hadiths you quoted? Discuss the language of the Arabs as regards the words you put in bold?

Keep it up as you are not disappointing me. Here is a post on what they said about Muhammad. Instead of them to face the issues bothering their religion they come here and derail thread with falsehood.

Falsehood for Jesus! The end justify the means.

I am quoting your text; no more no less. You can expalin the language, grammar, context, settings or antecedents; educate us on the antecedent that led to your prophet and his sahaba using a very foul and filthy language. If you can't kindly ignore and pretend you never see it.

I am not tolerant. I didn't call him here. Atheist ain't called to my threads. He interfered. And what i said is the truth.

This is a free space and everybody is entitled to his opinion. If you can't handle someone's argument you can ignore him totally instead of raining diatribe. What example are you showing? Is your action a sunnah? Well, even Abu Bakr said to one of the polytheist who was against the messenger of your prophet:

This was also said by Abu Bakr as-Siddeeq (may Allah be pleased with him), when ‘Urwah ibn Mas‘ood, who came as a negotiator on behalf of the mushrikeen at al-Hudaybiyah, said to the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him): By Allah I see faces, and I see a mixture of people who are most likely going to flee and desert you. Abu Bakr said to him: Suck the clitoris of al-Laat! Would we flee and desert him? He said: Who is that? They said: Abu Bakr. (Sahih Bukhaari (2581))

The prophet made a similar remark:

It was narrated from Ubayy ibn Ka‘b that a man boasted in an ignorant manner of his tribal lineage, so he told him to bite his father’s male member, and he did not use a metaphor. The people looked askance at him, so he said to the people: I can see what you are thinking, and I can only say this: that the Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) instructed us: “If you hear someone boasting in an ignorant manner of his tribal lineage, then tell him to bite his father’s male member (Penis), and do not use a metaphor.”(Narrated by Ahmad (35/157); classed as hasan by the commentators on al-Musnad. )

Well your action is ok if it sunnah.

drips8:
It's because years back on nairaland, Muslim topics were usually riddled with insults from non muslims and so the Muslims mods requested seun to do something about it and he ended up creating the oath stuff.

Under the threat of e-jihad and physical jihad. Muslims then threatened to rain fire and brimstone except seun comply which he eventually did to protect his life and property. I am even shocked that seun has not said the shahada.

Which one be sugarcoated Islam? Hollywood Islam? is there also Nollywood Islam? Honeycoated Islam?

Sugarcoated or Hollywood Islam is the fake form of Islam that are being preached in non-muslim land, especially in the US and Europe. A form of Islam where the Islamic dawah team wear clean suit and well (clean) shaved and keep telling us 'Islam is the religion of peace', 'Mohammad abolished slavery', 'Mohammed built churches and synagogues for the Jews and the Christians'. 'Mohammed never attacked the Jews and the Christians', 'Islam is one of the Abrahamic faith', 'Islam is misunderstood', 'Islam has been hijacked by the extremist', 'Mohammed is a champion of women's right', etc. These are Islamic scripts, the Hollywood scripts, to deceive the gullible by the Islamic snake oil sales men on Jacket and trousiers.

An arrogant ignoramus who is oblivious of his own book will teach what he doesn't know. You are unworthy of being a Sunday school teacher. Is this what you will be teaching the kids?

Cool bro, I have exhausted my book for over 3 years and my new study is on Islam. I am still studying it and the deeper I go, the dirtier it becomes.

Empiree:
Anything new?. This is exact argument currently employed by evangelical Christians. There is no reason for Muslims to stress themselves over this.

Let Bibles or Gospels they have speak for themselves. We determine if indeed they have the original injeel today by that. As for you, you have further exposed who you are.

If indeed current Bible or Gospel is injil of Jesus, how come Christians have major different doctrines?. How come some believe Jesus is God and some believe he's not?. These are major differences yet they read the same Bible. So mister, since you have decided to be their microphone, which Bible or Gospel is injil?

The same way there is no uniformity in the interpretations of the quran by all the 5 Islamic schools of thought. Even your tafsir, do not agree on many renditions of the quran. tafsir of ibn kathir and jalalyn do not agree on the hadith rendition of quran 66:1. They provided 2 completely different hadith on the ayah.

Do you know that the JW is one christian organization that rejects some of what the mainstream Christians belief in? Just as they reject the divinity of Christ, they also rejected the presence of heaven, hell or the afterlife (beliefs which are central part of Islamic theology). Why dont you use this belief as a proof positive of some sect that do not align with traditional christian doctrines? I understand, it wont suit your argument.

And to make matter worse, your prophet said Islam with balkanize into 73 different sects and only one sect will be on the right track and the remaining 72 will be fake:

“My ummah will divide into 73 sects, all of them will be in the Fire except for one, and that is the Jamā’ah.” It was said, “And who are they, O Allah’s Messenger?” He responded, “That which I and my Companions are upon today.” Jam'i at-Tirmidhi 40/2641. This hadith is graded sahih.

So stop making it seem as if you are even following the right side of Islam. The tendency that your Islam is acceptable is 1/73, which is below 2%.

usermane:
Now that it is clear that it makes no sense for the Qur'an to ask Christians to follow the Injeel if it has been lost or will be lost in future, the only other proposition left is that the Injeel is the New testament of today. But such proposition would be problematic because the Qur'an itself already states it CONFIRMS the Injeel whereas there is plenty of contradictions between the Qur'an and the New testament.

So, alas, we ask again. What really is the Injeel?

The writer of the quran can be very funny. How can you ask 2.5billion people to follow a book whose contents have been lost? If, for the better of the doubt, the current injeel is fake, where can we get the original copies? At time muslims make a claim that allah never sent them to make.

usermane:
If the Injeel indeed is lost, how then do Christians of today live by it? The apologists claim that at the time this verse was revealed, the original Injeel still exist, but today it has been lost. A counter claim to this is that since the Qur'an is a guide, it should've warned all that the Injeel will be corrupted, instead of urging the Christians to live by it. Or God, the author of Qur'an should've preserved the Injeel like He promised for the Qur'an.

Now, when we speak about New Testament preservation, the Muslim apologists are in full ignorance about it. For not only can today's New Testament manuscripts be traced to the days of Muhammad, but to as far back as the 2nd Century AD. Yes, and when I say New Testament, I mean virtually all passages of the New testament. So, if the Injeel was corrupted, it was corrupted even before Muhammad, therefore it'll be completely ridiculous that the same Qur'an require Christians to live by the Injeel.

Modern muslims must discredit the Injeel to give credibility to the quran because many of the teachings of the quran contradict the Injeel. I read an exegeses of the quran, by ibn Kathir, and in the first 3 pages where Ibn Kathir said that the Injeel but neither be accepted or rejected as the words of allah. And that muslims should reject any part of the injeel that does not agree with the koran and accept any part of the injeel that agree with the koran. In order words, the quran must be the standard to apprasise the Injeel and not the other way round. The quran asked the muslims to validate Islam from the people of the book and not the other way round.

It's blackmail money. Islam spread by force. They raid other people's lands and impose their sharia, treat the citizens as second class and pay money so as to survive.
Give me a reference that the tax is to protect them from wars.

Let's stick to the topic about the Muslim jizyiah

The so-called prophet was nothing but a bandit, a warlord whose source of livelihood is war and raiding the so-called kafirs:

Ibn 'Aun reported:
I wrote to Nafi' inquiring from him whether it was necessary to extend (to the disbelievers) an invitation to accept (Islam) before meeting them in fight. He wrote (in reply) to me that it was necessary in the early days of Islam. The Messenger of Allah ( ﷺ ) made a raid upon Banu Mustaliq while they were unaware and their cattle were having a drink at the water. He killed those who fought and imprisoned others. On that very day, he captured Juwairiya bint al-Harith. Nafi' said that this tradition was related to him by Abdullah b. Umar who (himself) was among the raiding troops.(sahih Muslim 1730l.

“And We send down of the Qur’aan that which is a healing and a mercy to those who believe (in Islamic Monotheism and act on it), and it increases the Zaalimoon (polytheists and wrongdoers) nothing but loss”

Can you tell me which school Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Paul, Timothy and all other author of your books attend? I still say it. You are ignorant & Arrogant.



Muhammsad is a man. But you now accept that your gods did bad stuffs right?

Qur'an 4:24 Allah says:

Also (forbidden are) women already married, except those (captives and slaves) whom your right hands possess. Thus has Allah ordained for you. All others are lawful, provided you seek (them in marriage) with Mahr (bridal money given by the husband to his wife at the time of marriage) from your property, desiring chastity, not committing illegal sexual intercourse, so with those of whom you have enjoyed sexual relations, give them their Mahr as prescribed; but if after a Mahr is prescribed, you agree mutually (to give more), there is no sin on you. Surely, Allah is Ever All-Knowing, All-Wise.

Sunan Abu Dawud 2150

Abu Sa’id Al Khudri said “The Apostle of Allaah(ﷺ) sent a military expedition to Awtas on the occasion of the battle of Hunain. They met their enemy and fought with them. They defeated them and took them captives. Some of the Companions of Apostle of Allaah (ﷺ) were reluctant to have relations with the female captives because of their pagan husbands. So, Allaah the exalted sent down the Qur’anic verse “And all married women (are forbidden) unto you save those (captives) whom your right hand posses.” This is to say that they are lawful for them when they complete their waiting period.

Please where is the rape here now?
It is well known that a slave has lesser right to a free human. And there was no rape. Some slaves bore Muslims who were pious Scholars we revere today.



You must have taught the corrupted form of Islam. You have a Pauline ideology and you can't teach Islam. You that don't even know that Christianity forbids marriage to Non-Christians and that Muslims still permit marriage to a Christian female.

Abeg don't mention me again and don't enter my post again with your Islamophobia.

I will keep educating you till you understand the real Islam; not the sugarcoated or Hollywood Islam.

Take away pack for you; so much for the greatest prophet and the best of mankind:

"We went out with Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) on the expedition to the Bi'l-Mustaliq and took captive some excellent Arab women; and we desired them, for we were suffering from the absence of our wives, (but at the same time) we also desired ransom for them. So we decided to have sexual intercourse with them but by observing 'azl (Withdrawing the male sexual organ before emission of semen to avoid-conception). But we said: We are doing an act whereas Allah's Messenger is amongst us; why not ask him? So we asked Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him), and he said: It does not matter" (Sahih Muslim 3371)

Keep quoting verses you don't understand. Even the Bible you carry sef you don't understand. You just keep beating your chest on Nairaland about Christianity that you are even ignorant of. If Islam is bad, then Muslims can't be good. It just show there's something wrong with you and your ideology.

allah said, in the quran, that his words are very clear and can be understood easily. The quran is not a rocket science; it is a book compiled, in a disorderly manner, by some illiterate Arab cavemen. It is very puzzling that Arab cavemen of the 6th century will be dictating your thought and ways of life in this 21st century. This war manual, the quran, is the major cause of conflict in the Arab world till date.

Face your Book please and i'm sick of you here on NL.

What do you think of this verse when your three Gods commanded this:

[b]So now, kill all the boys, as well as every woman who has had relations with a man, 1 but spare for yourselves every girl who has never had relations with a man. [/b]Numbers 31:17-18

The translation below was more than funny.

New Living Translation
Only the young girls who are virgins may live; you may keep them for yourselves.

This verse should infuriate you and should make you hang your head..... But no na Muhammad and Islam you dey tire for.

Bad stuffs happened in the old testament, especially in the battle between the Jews and their heathen neighbors. However the major actor in Islam is mohammed who is suposed to be the greatest moral example but he, in quran 4:24 (sunnah abu dawood 2150), asked his boys to rape war captives in the presence of their husbands. Can you deny this fact?:

The Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) sent a military expedition to Awtas on the occasion of the battle of Hunain. They met their enemy and fought with them. They defeated them and took them captives. Some of the Companions of the Apostle of Allah (may peace be upon him) were reluctant to have intercourse with the female captives in the presence of their husbands who were unbelievers. So Allah, the Exalted, sent down the Qur’anic verse: (Sura 4:24) "And all married women (are forbidden) unto you save those (captives) whom your right hands possess." (Abu Dawud 2150, also Muslim 3433)

"O Allah's Apostle! We get female captives as our share of booty, and we are interested in their prices, what is your opinion about coitus interruptus?" The Prophet said, "Do you really do that? It is better for you not to do it. No soul that which Allah has destined to exist, but will surely come into existence.” (Bukhari 34:432)

Rashduct4luv:
Which is better? Islam's treatment or your three Gods treatment in Numbers above?

This is a case of asking me to choose between 2 wrongs and it does not make sense.

Rashduct4luv:
I think it's high time you stepped back and think.... You even lack the skill of contrast. Did you even read what you typed? Typical of someone infuriated with Islam & Muslim.

I have taught Islam to many Muslims; your disapproval of my style wont change the fact that Muslims can be a very nice set of people but Islamic ideology is very archaic and dangerous to whoever wants to apply it today.

Rashduct4luv:
Muslims practice Islam. You can't hate Islam and like Muslims. Except you will like a Muslim with a corrupted form of Islam. A Muslim that will not use the Hijab and will pray with you "in jesus name". I know your kind. I used to attend fellowships/Churches and Catholic Mass. This is the way you are programmed. The Holy spirit is just a hoax. Anyone following this thread would agree with me that you and the Holy ghost are really messed up.

Muslims are nice people but Islam is a bad ideology. An ideology that encourages violence and terror (quran 9:5, 28-30, quran 98:6, quran 2:179-180, sahih bukhari 4:52:220) against non-muslims should be discouraged.

Rashduct4luv:
Yeah, in every conquest in history there have always being a winner and the subdued. And what is wrong in the muslims paying Zakat while the Christian pays the Jizya? Don't you pay tax in democracy?

It was narrated from ‘Abdullah ibn ‘Amr (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “Whoever kills a mu‘aahid (a non-Muslim living under Muslim rule) will not smell the fragrance of Paradise, although its fragrance may be detected from a distance of forty years.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 2995

What is meant is one who has a deal with the Muslims, whether that is by paying jizyah or a peace treaty with the Muslim ruler or a guarantee of safety from a Muslim.

There is a hadeeth that speaks of that. The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said: “If anyone wrongs a mu‘aahid, detracts from his rights, burdens him with more work than he is able to do or takes something from him without his consent, I will plead for him (the mu‘aahid) on the Day of Resurrection.” Narrated by Abu Dawood, 3052; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh Abi Dawood.

If any of the non-Muslims comes to our country for work or business, and has permission (from the authorities), he is either a mu‘aahid (one who has a treaty with the Muslims) or a musta’min (one who has been granted security by the Muslims). So it is not permissible to transgress against him.

The concept of the winner and the subdued only gives room for more hatred and revenge. The subdued will surely seek a revenge in the future and so you need to treat the subdued with dignity for a lasting peace. Mohammed did not understand the concept of diplomacy hence he viewed wars and battles as the only means of conflict resolution. This is the same policy that led to the sunni-shia wars which never stop till date. The US fought and destroyed Japan but they also help rebult Japan and today they are strong allies. Mohammed was a bad diplomat.

On the issue of the jizya (quran 9:29) it is discriminatory tax meant to humiliate the Christians and the Jews living in an Islamic community. It is also money imposed on the Christians and the Jews for their own security so that Muslim mobs and government will allow them live in peace. Jizya is like a ransom paid to mafia for your own safety and allah encourage this evil.

Rashduct4luv:
And believing in Allah and Islam does not mean we will be rich in this world. It does not even mean will be healthy through out our life. The Prophet enjoyed. He suffered greatly too. He lost several Children. There were times he was very hungry and had nothing to eat. Our religion does not preach perfect worldly enjoyment. We believe in Allah and His Qadar.

Your prophet suffered when he was still hustling in mecca (without a standing army) and enjoyed in Medina after decimating his enemies and imposed the Jizya (quran 9:29) on non-muslims and the zakat (on muslims).

Rashduct4luv:
Alhamdulillah, Islam has a country. But where is the Christian country? Very soon in this nairaland you will learn to keep your mouth shut.

Stop talking about ignorance. Jesus of the Bible with all the authority given to him in heaven and on earth still do not know the hour but can quicken the dead.

And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Matthew 28:18

Jesus Raises Lazarus From the Dead... John 11: 38-44

But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.Mark 13:32

How many Christians know that only one of there 3 Gods is "all Knowing" while the other two are not "all knowing". The Father gave all the authority to the son so he has no authority left. Of what use is the Holy spirit with no authority?

And who is the greatest liar if not the Christians who believed that their God is one but three. One has authority while the other two have none. The Father had to give the son all authority for him to perform yet he still was ignorant.

Allah so great and merciful to the greatest prophet ever. Quran 33:50,

Sahih International : O Prophet, indeed We have made lawful to you your wives to whom you have given their due compensation and those your right hand possesses from what Allah has returned to you [of captives] and the daughters of your paternal uncles (first cousins) and the daughters of your paternal aunts (first cousins) and the daughters of your maternal uncles (first cousins) and the daughters of your maternal aunts (first cousins) who emigrated with you and a believing woman if she gives herself to the Prophet [and] if the Prophet wishes to marry her, [this is] only for you, excluding the [other] believers. We certainly know what We have made obligatory upon them concerning their wives and those their right hands possess, [but this is for you] in order that there will be upon you no discomfort. And ever is Allah Forgiving and Merciful.

Lamartine
"If greatness of purpose, smallness of means, and astounding results are the three criteria of human genius, who could dare to compare any great man in modern history with Muhammad? The most famous men created arms, laws and empires only. They founded, if anything at all, no more than material powers which often crumbled away before their eyes. This man moved not only armies, legislations, empires, peoples and dynasties, but millions of men in one-third of the then inhabited world; and more than that, he moved the altars, the gods, the religions, the ideas, the beliefs and souls... the forbearance in victory, his ambition, which was entirely devoted to one idea and in no manner striving for an empire; his endless prayers, his mystic conversations with God, his death and his triumph after death; all these attest not to an imposture but to a firm conviction which gave him the power to restore a dogma. This dogma was twofold, the unit of God and the immateriality of God; the former telling what God is, the latter telling what God is not; the one overthrowing false gods with the sword, the other starting an idea with words."
"Philosopher, orator, apostle, legislator, warrior, conqueror of ideas, restorer of rational dogmas, of a cult without images; the founder of twenty terrestrial empires and of one spiritual empire, that is Muhammad. As regards all standards by which human greatness may be measured, we may well ask, is there any man greater than he?"

"It is not the propagation but the permanency of his religion that deserves our wonder, the same pure and perfect impression which he engraved at Mecca and Medina is preserved, after the revolutions of twelve centuries by the Indian, the African and the Turkish proselytes of the Koran...The Mahometans have uniformly withstood the temptation of reducing the object of their faith and devotion to a level with the senses and imagination of man. 'I believe in One God and Mahomet the Apostle of God', is the simple and invariable profession of Islam. The intellectual image of the Deity has never been degraded by any visible idol; the honors of the prophet have never transgressed the measure of human virtue, and his living precepts have restrained the gratitude of his disciples within the bounds of reason and religion."

"I wanted to know the best one who holds today's undisputed way over the hearts of millions of mankind....I became more than convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days in the scheme of life. It was the rigid simplicity, the utter self-effacement of the Prophet, the scrupulous regard for his pledges, his intense devotion to his friends and followers, his intrepidity, his fearlessness, his absolute trust in God and in his own mission. These -and not the sword- carried everything before them and surmounted every obstacle. When I closed the 2nd volume (of the Prophet's biography), I was sorry there was not more for me to read of the great life."

The famous poetess of India says about Islam: "It was the first religion that preached and practiced democracy; for in the mosque, when the call for prayer is sounded and worshippers are gathered together, the democracy of Islam is embodied five times a day when the peasant and king kneel side by side and proclaim: 'God Alone is Great'! I have been struck over and over again by this indivisible unity of Islam that makes man instinctively a brother."

James A. Michener
"Muhammad, the inspired man who founded Islam, was born about A.D. 570 into an Arabian tribe that worshipped idols. Orphaned at birth, he was always particularly solicitous of the poor and needy, the widow and the orphan, the slave and the downtrodden. At twenty he was already a successful businessman, and soon became director of camel caravans for a wealthy widow. When he reached twenty-five his employer, recognizing his merit, proposed marriage. Even though she was fifteen years older, he married her, and as long as she lived, remained a devoted husband."
"Like almost every major prophet before him, Muhammad fought shy of serving as the transmitter of God's word, sensing his own inadequacy. But the angel commanded 'Read'. So far as we know, Muhammad was unable to read or write, but he began to dictate those inspired words which would soon revolutionize a large segment of the earth: "There is one God."
"In all things Muhammad was profoundly practical. When his beloved son Ibrahim died, an eclipse occurred, and rumors of God's personal condolence quickly arose. Whereupon Muhammad is said to have announced, 'An eclipse is a phenomenon of nature. It is foolish to attribute such things to the death or birth of a human-being.'
"At Muhammad's own death an attempt was made to deify him, but the man who was to become his administrative successor killed the hysteria with one of the noblest speeches in religious history: 'If there are any among you who worshipped Muhammad, he is dead. But if it is God you worshipped, He lives forever.'"
