I have to respect ALL men/women who fight the system to see a truer form of Justice/Religion/Politics prevail. It would be against MY religion, not to respect those who have fought the system before me. I mean thanks to Mohammed (PBUH), we don't have to deal with a bunch of crazies running around the globe praising the 300 Gods of the Ka'ba, doing Gods knows what to Gods knows who. It is unfortunate that certain people (Bin Laden and Bush for example) have warped such a peace loving religion, so much, that most westerners think that all muslims are terrorists. It is a sad and unfortunate circumstance. After hearing the way Mohammed (PBUH) wanted his followers to act..I cannot help but give respect where it is due. |

Does your sect of Islam look down upon or even prohibit some of the western trends such as music, movies, certain clothes ect...? |

The main things that allow you to distinguish Danes from Dutch :
However, don't fully rely on that list. If you see a tall, black-haired, Dunglish-speaking person in Denmark, that doesn't automatically make him/her a Dutch(wo)man. -Dirk |

First, sorry for not posting in a while, I'm in the middle of my Mock IGCSE's. Saber, Tislam Yeddik for taking over for me. Sinister, I'm thankful for the respect you give our Prophet (PBUH), the fact that you're actually Satanist makes it all the more flattering. On the whole you guyz are a lot friendlier towards religion than the Flat Earth Society forums ( maybe it's because there are a few more religious people here). I'd like to ask a question myself, if you don't mind. During your read through the Glorious Qu'ran, have you found it to be extremely sexist, violent, racist or anything else extremist? Also, in regards to showing the Prophet's (PBUH) face, what saber says is true, but showing his face I feel would be commercializing him, and I would not want the Prophet's (PBUH) image to be cheapened like that. Bee, not completely. We don't agree with things like extramarital sex, consumption of alcohol and disrespect to parents that seem rampant in the west. Then again, it really depends on what country and age demographic you're talking about. Qatari's are more welcoming to western life compared to someplace like Saudi Arabia ( it's like a dictatorship there), just like teenagers ( who are more often than not American wannabes) will be more welcoming to Western trends than the old folks and adults. Of course that is changing, as people are starting to lose their religion, and people can do what they want when they're outside the country, so it's more likely that ( at least in Qatar) people will pretend to be religious and look down on bad trends, but are at heart total western worshippers ( and trust me, they worship the west). Let's look at one of the reason's I look down on dating anywhere when it comes to teenagers nowadays ( this bit is more for fun than to just answer the question). Why do I disagree? 'cause more often than not a guy just likes a girl cause she's hot, and the girls are stupid enough to believe that what they're after is more than just snogging and satisfying their sex drives ( of course guys can probably hoodwink them pretty well, this I KNOW guys have a knack for). And what's the extent of the relationship? Snogging, as far as I can tell. The reason's I've wanted to date a girl is because I care in a deep and romantic sort of way. Sure, I'd like a snog, but a warm cuddle and a kiss on the cheek maybe and I'd be more than happy. Take my parents for example, they dated before they eloped ( yes, eloped), but it wasn't a continual snog fest. Plus what's a girlfriend have to offer that I either already have or don't really need? Intimancy? We've established I don't need that. Companionship or someone to talk to in your spare time? Friends and family, and that's not 100% necessary either. Someone to sympathise with your problems? Previously mentioned people, or deal with 'em yourself and stop bitching, 'cause in the grand scheme of things it's rarely a big deal, those that are you probably won't want to talk about anyway. flamingo, I'm thankful that you as well use (PBUH). Curses are black magic and thus constitutes unforgivable sin. If you've had bad experiences with them as I did, you'd understand why. Horrible and cruel, and I wasn't even the one hit by it ( Praise unto Thy Lord). And yes, I was veeeery peeved when I found out about the drawings of our Prophet (PBUH). I was even more pissed when I found out on the Islamicity forums that the same newspaper refused to print similar comic strips about Jesus (PBUH). Freedom of speech my ass. |

No problem, I respect others. And if I didn't do that before, forgive me. I didn't know you had to do that after saying Mohammed[PBUH]. Anyway, is there any good luck charms/bad luck charms in Islam? |

This is what I do not understand, and I can only look to the example set by Japan, in WWII, of the warping of an honarble tradition Bushido, into the most shit house crazy philosophy ever, Yamato Da'maishi (sp). Just as I can't figure out how the traditions of Bushido could ever be warped into such an unimaginably horrific philosophy that brought some 30 million Chinese (among others), directly under a Samurai sword (or worse), I cannot understand where in the Qu'ran anyone could interpret anything like the likes of Al'Qaeda preaches. It is nonsensical, because I haven't seen anything of the like in your good book. So, the answer is no, I have not (as of yet, I have a long way to go) seen any such scenarios described in your quote, and furthermore, I do not expect to. That raises the question, can you understand where the extremists are coming from, even though you don't agree with their tactics? Or more so, where they get the idea that what they are doing is what Mohammed (PBUH) said God wanted? |

It's not in the Qur'an without a lot of stretching. It's not a huge stretch, however, from the Hadith. In Judaism the core writings -- the Torah -- are insanity personified and the extra-scriptural writings are all attempts to soften and render less insane the core. Sadly it seems that the relationship is reversed in Islam. The core writings are saner than most Abrahamic religions, but the peripheral materials are just lunatic. |

Flamingo, generally carrying the Qu'ran Al-Kareem around is interpreted as protection, and reading Du'aa ( which is basically like saying grace before eating, only there are different Du'aas for pretty much evey occasion like sleeping to travelling) before and after everything you do will ensure protection, if you don't remember any of them you can say Bism' Illah ( In the name of Allah) before doing something and Al-Hamdu l'Illah ( Praise unto Allah) afterwards, though it's preffered you learn Du'aa. Also, there actually is one whole Sura in the Great Book which is something like a prayer for protection against evil, Surat Al-Falaq ( The Dawn), and the Sura afterwards for protection from Satan. Common practice is reading Al-Falaq ( which is one of those Suras that EVERYBODY knows off by heart) and blowing on the forehead of the person you want protected. Pierce, not at all as far as I know. Sinister, I've actually been reading through the Qu'ran for the past couple of days to find out ( translated though, my Arabic is shoddy and even if it wasn't it's pretty hard to understand) just where extremists are coming from, but I think Michael is right ( am I the only one that refers to you as Micahael and not [][][][]? :lol: ), as I have seen some pretty crazy Ahadith out there, the best thing to do is look at a Hadith and see if it coincides with the Qu'ran. Even the Prophet (PBUH) foresaw this I think, as he actually ordered all written copies of his Hadiths burned when he found out they were being written down ( or so I've heard, but then that calls to question whether what I heard was true or not, eh? Well, it seems true to me). Nonetheless, some Ahadith are quite useful in understanding the Qu'ran, you just need to be careful. But evidently not everybody is careful and follow Hadiths that would scare even the Amish.I'll let you know how my read through the Qu'ran goes, good luck reading it Sinister. BTW Mike, how much have you read? Quite a bit by the sounds of it. |
