The riligion or the followers, and were they practicing their religion when they did so :sunglasse *Peace and love* Yours Sincerely, Cat Stevens
Other Muslims saw it and described it to them , many don't want to see such dirts Nah, we aren't that much stupid, The point was OUR PROPHET WAS A TERRORIST! besides other things,DO NOT MESS THINGS UP, one of the cartoons, shows the prophet as a terrorist, and maybe all of them were representing the prophet NOT the extremists, if it was about the extremists it is OK but the Prophet NO you will find many Carttons about the extremists in Islamic countries and newspapers, read about the goal of publishing these cartoons yeah, but easily mmm maybe it wasn'y easy for them at the time, they were very angry*Peace and love* Yours Sincerely, Cat Stevens
so just because its your religion means that everyone should watch what they say around you? because thats basically what youre saying. and does it really even matter why those people reacted like they did? they believe that their religion told them to do so, just like you believe that your religion tells you to tell me to go fuck myself because i'm a U.S. soldier. whats the fucking difference? you all believe in the same shit.
Dear Lord, please save me from your followers. What is this cartoon? I admit, I'm a clueless midwesterner kept blissfully out of touch by our wonderful Mr. President. I don't know what cartoon you're talking about. Where can I see this cartoon? And if we're talking about justice, you had all better pray to whatever god you wish that justice never truly comes. Think about it. We're ALL imperfect. We'd ALL be screwed in some way. Before condemning others, think about what crimes you committed today. If you say none, I know that you lie.
http://www.zombietime.com/mohammed_image_archive/ here are the "controversial" ones. http://www.zombietime.com/mohammed_image_archive/recent/ lmfao ahahaha
Look whose talking. What are the consequences of your acts, oh holy one? Posting all day on a web site. I'm sure Allah is pleased. Where in the Qu'arn does it say that this is our service in this world? Feel free to cut and paste.
Never did I say that ya said so, One knows in his heart that he didn't over-react, others disagree !! I did , BTW I'm completely against over-reaction my answer Anyone who causes something deliberately and know the consequences of its act should face the consequences and don't whine or weep, they chose to do that willingly. I will make it sample. I will put my hands in the fire deliberately then I will weep and whine , don't misunderstand me, but it is stupid to whine when you do something and you fully aware that the consequences will be against ya, again: I'm completely against over-reaction , I Condemn both of them I think I did clarified my point in this thread. I wish this post will be my last post here in this thread or before the last otherwise *Peace and love* Yours Sincerely, Cat Stevens
Dear Lord, please save me from evil followers who don't practice your teachings *Peace and love* Yours Sincerely, Cat Stevens
Cat, I like you a lot, but show me one person who follows EVERY teaching of his or her religion EVERY day. Does this happen in other religions? I can't even find a Christian who goes halfway! BTW, just to clear up any potential flames from others, I am not a Christian. Nor am I Jewish or Muslim. I'm just a wanderer trying to learn more about the being that keeps saving my butt at every turn of the wheel.
Anyway And upon you ,Thank you very much dear brother, that was VERY NICE & kind, I really did feel peace when I read it, thank you again ^^ wow*Peace and love* Yours Sincerely,Cat Stevens
Thank you sister Squirrel According to Islam Allah told us that He knows that we are weak and cannot be perfect, so , He told us to do as much as we can =) and whenever we do a mistake to repent and ask for forgiveness, some verses And Attributed hadiths to the prophet. Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, "Religion is easy and whoever overburdens himself in his religion will not be able to continue in that way. So you should not be extremists" (Bukhari) Narrated Anas bin Malik: The Prophet said, "Facilitate things to people (concerning religious matters), and do not make it hard for them and give them good tidings and do not make them run away (from Islam). "(Source: Bukhari) Narrated `Aisha: Whenever Allah's Apostle ordered the Muslims to do something, he used to order them deeds which were easy for them to do, (according to their strength endurance). (Bukhari) Narrated Abu Huraira: A Bedouin stood up and started making water in the mosque. The people caught him but the Prophet ordered them to leave him and to pour a bucket or a tumbler of water over the place where he had passed the urine. The Prophet then said, "You have been sent to make things easy and not to make them difficult." (Bukhari) (Sahih Bukhari)Allah's Apostle said"O`Aisha! Allah loves kind and lenient in all matters." There are so many other haddeeths Allah my beloved Lord, Sir and God stated: µ''We have not sent down the Quran unto you to cause you distress'' µ Allah burdens not a person beyond his scope. He gets reward for that (good) which he has earned, and he is punished for that (evil) which he has earned. " Our Lord! Punish us not if we forget or fall into error.. Our Lord! Put not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. Pardon us and grant us Forgiveness. Have mercy on us. You are our Maula (Patron, Suppor-ter and Protector, etc.) '' [039:053] Say: "O Ibadee (My slaves) who have transgressed against themselves (by committing evil deeds and sins)! Despair not of the Mercy of Allah, verily Allah forgives all sins. Truly, He is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful. There are many other hadiths and verses, we are not angels, and we do mistakes, repent and ask for forgiveness, Allah will forgive you, it is good to learn from our mistakes =) Does that mean ''you believe in God's existence?'' wish so!! *Peace and love* Yours Sincerely,Cat Stevens
I most certainly do. I've seen too much not to. Without God, I'm not supposed to exist! My mother was told that conception was a medical impossibility! A comparison for you, though. . . Man wrote scriptures: many different creeds, in hundreds of different languages, and in literally thousands of of letters and symbols. God used four letters, G, A, T, and C, to write all terrestrial life. Man painted the Mona Lisa, recognizable through most of the western world. God painted the night sky. Look up. Man built temples to contain God. God built a planet to contain man. Man invented fear, and said it was wise. God invented love, and said man was a fool. Man used mathematics to prove that the sum of one and one was two. God used sexual reproduction to prove that the sum of one and one was infinite. There's my argument for following God. Call him (or her) by whichever name you like. I just don't understand how anyone could be atheist. Ironically, I will also admit that I am a very evil person. I can accept this. It's kind of silly not to. I can't make myself follow any certain dogma because I wouldn't know whether or not I was following out of love for God or a fear of Hell, so Hell is an overwhelming probability. I trust God's wisdom in that decision. I'd rather go to Hell and know that whatever good I did was done for the right reasons. I couldn't be certain of my motivations in a religion.
Squirrel WOW Some of them were truly inspired by God. Me too Link No problem you follow the true one, day after day you will know, If God want us to follow a specific scripture then it is better to do so,it is better than disobeying him (by not following what he wants), myself I'm not worshipping Allah because I want Paradise or I fear hell, I do love him, he is worth worshipping =) when you know him you will love him, and through practing his teaching you will know him, at least I am saying that according to my experience =) please think about this issue, please. *Peace and love* Yours Sincerely,Cat Stevens
Yes, but Man put pen to parchment. Guess who got the final editing process. I don't know Islamic history. Did you guys have a council of Nicea?
Squirrel Allah promised in Qur'aan to protect His last book from Corruption, and he did, myself I studied this issue, and yeah I do believe that Allah proteceted it, some Non_Muslims too concluded the same thing, The Qur‘aan the word of Allah revealed to Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was written down and memorized, from beginning to end, during the lifetime of the Prophet himself. There are thousands of Muslims who know the entire Qur'aan by heart, Actually we Muslims do recite the whole text, (many of usfrom memory), during the month of Ramadaan every year. qOne of the leading orientalists, Kenneth Cragg, said the following regarding the memorization and preservation of the Qur’aanic text, “This phenomenon of Qur’anic recital means that the text has traversed the centuries in an unbroken living sequence of devotion. It cannot, therefore, be handled as an antiquarian thing, nor as a historical document out of a distant past.” The Mind of the Qur’an, p. 26. Actually Arabs had a very good memory, they memorized many long poems at the time easily. Allah is wise =) John Burton, stated: “The method of transmitting the Qur’an from one generation to the next by having the young memorize the oral tradition of their elders had mitigated somewhat from the beginning the worst perils of relying solely on written records...” An Introduction to the Hadith, p. 27. At the end of a voluminous work on the Qur’aan’s collection, Burton stated that the text of the Qur’aan available today is “the text which has come down to us in the form in which it was organised and approved by the Prophet...What we have today in our hands is the mushaf The Arabic term used to refer to the text of the Qur’aan of Muhammad.” The Collection of the Qur’an, p. 239-40.Seek the truth , search =) All the best (= *Peace and love* =) Yours Sincerely, Cat Stevens
And here most Christians haven't even read Ecclesiastes (I like that one!). Is western culture depressing or what?
I think Most of them didn't read the entire Bible, especially, the OT To me: Anything or living life without God is depressing,A place where there is no God is depressing, Always Faith have to attend. (= *Peace and love* =) Yours Sincerely, Cat Stevens
