in the name of allah
ok so i think it's the occasion to respond now to both friends squinney and xingu.
squinney wrote:And, if you don't respond soon, was god not willing to let you? or, did you just get busy with life and forget
i said "god willing" because in islam, allah tells us to say "incha'allah" in arabic wich means "god willing" if we say something like "i will do this", that's all, not because if i don't say it it will not happen. So if you think this is a trap or i don't have the answer or something else, you're wrong friend :wink:. Otherwise if this is not your thoughts than you for joining us and trying to search the truth.

god willing :wink: :
xingu wrote:Your making an unproven assumption that god sent messenger to us to tell us what the rules are
but before i begin, i have to tell you friends that i'm not here to turn around and try to convince people for my own pleasure or to talk for just talking. No, if you guys are searching an answer and if you find it in islam, will you embrace islam :wink: ? are you're just turning around ? well i hope not, so if something basic has been answered here or anywhere else, thanks for not repeating the same question again or in a different form since you're searching for anwers :wink:.
Now i want to tell you friends that in islam, one of the biggest sins is to lie on the religion of god or tell something that i don't know, so starting from this basic, if i don't find an answer to one of your questions, i will ask a scholar or search some link where i can find the answer,
god willing :wink.
Let's begin :
actually there are 2 kind of religions : man made religions and what we call god religions.
the man made religions are unaccepted from the begin because they are man made and the man cannot talk about god without having a proof, at least they do some tricks that lot of people can do to make people believe in them.
almost all the people in the earth believe that god religions are 3 for a lot of reasons :
- these religions came from god because the people who were sent by god , they came with miracles that
no one can do the same.
For example moses (peace be upon him) spared the sea in 2 parts and people walked between the 2 parts.
Jesus (Peace be upon him) was born without man and he was bringing people form death to life.
Muhammad (peace be upon him) came with the quran, the word of god wich is the biggest and the neverending miracle, regardless of the miracles in his life like sparing the moon in to parts and a lot that i can post later in this forum,
god willing :wink:.
now the question that anybody can ask is : WE DON'T SEE THOSE MIRACLES.
well exept the quran that i will talk abou later
god willing :wink:, the pas miracles, even if you cannot see it, than the people that were living in its time and saw these miracles cannot lie and say HEY I SAW NOTHING, and even if someone said that and was true, than at least there will be lot people now that are their followers and that claim that there was no such miracles :wink:, and even if there was, they have to prove it.
now millions of people teach to millions of people from millions of people that there was miracles and that this or that happened and these 3 religions say the same thing and that's one proof that it was from the one and only god.
the difference betwwen these 3 religions from the point of view of their miracles is that judasm and cristianity didn't preserved those miracles until now, the only thing they is the testaments that also have not been preserved correctly AND THAT'S WHAT EVEN THEIR SCHOLARS SAY.
now if we turn to islam, we see that the testament wich is the final testament AND the miracle are both in the quran and preserved in the letter and in the original language.
My friends will ask a question : HOW A BOOK CAN BE A MIRACLE.
i will say first that's why the biggest athiests scientists in the world are still embracing islam :wink:.
Second i will say that one of the biggest things that makes it a miracle is that no one can do such !!!! OOOOOOOH YES and this challenge was made from the beginning until now and will stay forever and NO ONE CAN DO SUCH even not the people that had the biggest chance to do such because of their language skills.
another miraculous thing is that quran is composed by words, the thing that anybody can do in their eyes, but that no one can do in reality.

Now if some people say OH WELL I DON'T TRUST THESE THINGS BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW ARABIC, i will tell them : YOU GUYS HAVE TO KNOW ARABIC BEFORE YOU TALK ABOUT WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW.
And we muslims we learn english to read english texts and to understand english so thanks for taking some time to learn arabic, well if you are searching the truth of course :wink:.
And for this :
xingu wrote:It's a false religion, as is any religion, that uses God as an reason to kill, conquer and steal.
Do you have a proof ?
The history shows that the muslims are the kindest and the most merciful people in everything even in war, and if there are some people that do bad things in the name of islam, than it's their fault, not islam's fault.
