General Questions

Allahuakbar —

Salaam,

I just have a few questions to ask and would be very grateful if anyone could help me with them. Firstly I would like to say that I have been reading the English translation of the Qur'an and I would definately recommend it. Most of us will probably never learn arabic so the least we can do is read the translation.

1) Why does Jesus (pbuh) refer to God as "father" in the Bible?

2) Regarding 2 women witnesses in the Qur'an, I read it and it says there should be 2 women, in case one is in error, I was told that it was just in case one woman was having menstrual problems/pain whatever u wanna call it? Is this the reasion why?

3) The one which intrigues me most is why does a woman only get a quarter of inheritance and the male gets half? Im assuming it has something to do with the responsibility of the male to organise the funeral etc.???

Please don't think I am doubting the Qur'an, astaghfirullah, that I would never do. What I do know is that there is always a logical reason behind every statement in the Qur'an.

[quote="Beast"]How about you give her the tenner as Eid money.[/quote]
She's about 28/29 yrs old, and a mother of two.

Trying to give her Eid money would be harder than returning the money.

[quote="Beast"]Give it to the children![/quote]
She won't allow me, cos my mum/dad give Eid to the kids, and her husband (also my cousin) gives it to me. Can you see the balance. [size=9]Balance is important to Pakistani people[/size].

Actually I could get the kids a present, she can't refuse then.

Make sure it's not a rattly toy that makes alot of noise.

That won't count as paying her back, unless you want to pay her back in a bad way.

[size=5]Actually, that's a good revenge tactic - buying big noisy prezies for kids of people that annoy you...[/size]

I'll have to make sure one is pretty indestructable, 3 yr old nephew can get a bit hyper.

The other will have to be suitable to put in her mouth. Six month old babies just put eveything in thier gobs :roll:
But still you gotta love em.

I talked about Ahmadiyya "Muslims" before. I heard that instead of saying "La illaha Il-Allah Muhammadar-rasool-Allah" they replace the "Muhammad"(saw) with Ahmad?!!!!

"La illaha Il-Allah Ahmadi-rasool-Allah"

I knew their beliefs were twisted but this is also true then it is shocking and blasphemous. It wouldnt surprise me coz they do belive the prophethood was extended. Astaghfirullah!

They just show how low they can go...

People are willing to do anything to protect their version of the truth...

They are soo willing to protect it that they use bodyguards of lies to protect it.

They believe in another prophet AFTER the blessed Prophet Muhammad (sallahu Alaihi wa Sallam).

So even if they do not ave a diferent kalimah, they are still not muslims.

Medarris — Thu, 5 Jan 2006 - 20:44

Yes. Qadiani are kafir. Even if they read the Kalima Tayyibah and accept it that There is no God but ALLAH, and that Muhammad SALALLAHU ALAYHI WA SALLAM is the Messenger of ALLAH - then their accepting Mirza Ghulam Shaytan Qadiani negates what their tongues say.

Similarly those who say Kalima but have dodgy beliefs then too they are also kafir.

May ALLAH save us from bid'ah and dalaala.

Admin. Can you please explain to me why are you changing my words instead of deleting them ?

You have altered my post above.

Omrow

You — Thu, 5 Jan 2006 - 20:51

You may delete my change, aswell as the message.

In the future, should I alter or delete?

Med; why bring the shias into this mix? leave them alone.

Omrow — Thu, 5 Jan 2006 - 23:57

Excuse me. Let me get this straight.

YOU go and make alterations to MY words,
and then YOU tell me that if I don't like YOUR changes to
MY lines, that I should go and delete them MYSELF.

Is that what you are telling me ?

Admin. I know Charles Kennedy has just confessed that he has a drink problem. Therefore, he cannot think straight.

But what is your excuse ?

Omrow

You — Thu, 5 Jan 2006 - 23:59

I is admin.

I do not need an excuse.

fine, I'll do it!

Omrow — Fri, 6 Jan 2006 - 00:07

Salam

Please. Don't mutilate the posts.

No one has the right to alter another person's words unless that person permits it.

As Admin you do have right to throw the whole post out.

You know perfectly well that taking out even one line or a word from a sentence changes the entire context as well the meaning of the post.

Therefore, when judging my posts, would you please just delete the entire thing, if it so upsets you.

[quote="Admin"]In the future, should I alter or delete?[/quote]

Delete.

And please don't do it by half. Delete the whole post.

You can start with the one above, and also the other one where you changed the word "Sir" into "Sis".

And if there are any other of my posts, which I may not be aware of, posts which have been altered in this way, then kindly do the same to them as well.

Thank you so much.

can someone tell me which namaz you have to read the sunnats pls

You — Fri, 6 Jan 2006 - 19:22

The two sunnah Sunnah before Fajr must be read.

There are four raka'ahs before Dhur, and two after which must be read.

The four before Asr are optional.

The two after Maghrib must be read.

The four before Isha are optional, but the two afterwards must be read.

star — Fri, 6 Jan 2006 - 19:25

in ALL the namazs,

in zuhr the 4 sunnats and the 2 sunnats are sunnat muakkada....

also the two sunnats in fajr are sunat muakkada so they emphasised on.

the rest are ghair muakkada...but still best to read them

You — Sat, 7 Jan 2006 - 00:52

not true.

2 before Fajr are Sunnah e Muakkadah bordering on Wajib
4 before and 2 aftre Zuhr are Sunnah e Muakkadah.
4 before Asr are Sunnah Ghayr Muakkadah
2 after Maghrib are Sunnah e Muakkadah.
4 before Isha are Sunnah Ghayr Muakkadah.
2 after Isha are Sunnah e Muakkadah.

These should ALL be read if possible.

Medarris — Sat, 7 Jan 2006 - 01:03

[quote="naj"]oh well i missed them out sorrrrreeeeeeeeeee med... so it was kinda tru.[/quote]

U said the rest are ghayr muakkadah which is BLATANTLY WRONG.

the 2 of maghrib and isha are muakkadah.

If I let this mistake go ppl wud accuse me of being biased and blinded and blah blah blah so just to prove Im in my full senses and wits I must point out the error of ur ways. [size=9]hehehehe[/size]

I am an objective person, not subjective.

You — Sat, 7 Jan 2006 - 01:10

done.

Med, I did not correct her, as the post preceding it was by me, and I had stated them all. She probably posted at the same time, and forgot.
