>>671 wa alaykum salam wa rahmatullah wa barakatuhu

>>674 Well done.

>>673 Yeeeeeeeaaaaah boooooi I am pumped.

How come Iran allows transgenderism but not homosexuality?

>>680 They're crazy Shias.

>>680 The whole thing about turning all their homos into ladyboys is presumably a pre-Islamic Persian thing.

Ramadan mubarak brothers.

I wish you all and your families a peaceful Ramadan full of blessings, brothers.

255- Allah - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. To Him belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Who is it that can intercede with Him except by His permission? He knows what is [presently] before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. His Kursi extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation tires Him not. And He is the Most High, the Most Great. 256- There shall be no compulsion in [acceptance of] the religion. The right course has become clear from the wrong. So whoever disbelieves in Taghut and believes in Allah has grasped the most trustworthy handhold with no break in it. And Allah is Hearing and Knowing. 257- Allah is the ally of those who believe. He brings them out from darknesses into the light. And those who disbelieve - their allies are Taghut. They take them out of the light into darknesses. Those are the companions of the Fire; they will abide eternally therein.

286- The Messenger ˹firmly˺ believes in what has been revealed to him from his Lord, and so do the believers. They ˹all˺ believe in Allah, His angels, His Books, and His messengers. ˹They proclaim,˺ “We make no distinction between any of His messengers.” And they say, “We hear and obey. ˹We seek˺ Your forgiveness, our Lord! And to you ˹alone˺ is the final return.” 287- Allah does not require of any soul more than what it can afford. All good will be for its own benefit, and all evil will be to its own loss. ˹The believers pray,˺ “Our Lord! Do not punish us if we forget or make a mistake. Our Lord! Do not place a burden on us like the one you placed on those before us. Our Lord! Do not burden us with what we cannot bear. Pardon us, forgive us, and have mercy on us. You are our ˹only˺ Guardian. So grant us victory over the disbelieving people.”

185- Every soul will taste death. And you will only receive your full reward on the Day of Judgment. Whoever is spared from the Fire and is admitted into Paradise will ˹indeed˺ triumph, whereas the life of this world is no more than the delusion of enjoyment. 186- You ˹believers˺ will surely be tested in your wealth and yourselves, and you will certainly hear many hurtful words from those who were given the Scripture before you and ˹from˺ the polytheists. But if you are patient and mindful ˹of Allah˺—surely this is a resolve to aspire to. 187- ˹Remember, O Prophet,˺ when Allah took the covenant of those who were given the Scripture to make it known to people and not hide it, yet they cast it behind their backs and traded it for a fleeting gain. What a miserable profit! 188- Do not let those who rejoice in their misdeeds and love to take credit for what they have not done think they will escape torment. They will suffer a painful punishment. 189- To Allah ˹alone˺ belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth. And Allah is Most Capable of everything. 190- Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and the earth and the alternation of the day and night there are signs for people of reason. 191- ˹They are˺ those who remember Allah while standing, sitting, and lying on their sides, and reflect on the creation of the heavens and the earth ˹and pray˺, “Our Lord! You have not created ˹all of˺ this without purpose. Glory be to You! Protect us from the torment of the Fire. 192- Our Lord! Indeed, those You commit to the Fire will be ˹completely˺ disgraced! And the wrongdoers will have no helpers. 193- Our Lord! We have heard the caller to ˹true˺ belief, ˹proclaiming,˺ ‘Believe in your Lord ˹alone˺,’ so we believed. Our Lord! Forgive our sins, absolve us of our misdeeds, and allow us ˹each˺ to die as one of the virtuous. 194- Our Lord! Grant us what You have promised us through Your messengers and do not put us to shame on Judgment Day—for certainly You never fail in Your promise.” 195- So their Lord responded to them: “I will never deny any of you—male or female—the reward of your deeds. Both are equal in reward. Those who migrated or were expelled from their homes, and were persecuted for My sake and fought and ˹some˺ were martyred—I will certainly forgive their sins and admit them into Gardens under which rivers flow, as a reward from Allah. And with Allah is the finest reward!” 196- Do not be deceived by the prosperity of the disbelievers throughout the land. 197- It is only a brief enjoyment. Then Hell will be their home—what an evil place to rest! 198- But those who are mindful of their Lord will be in Gardens under which rivers flow, to stay there forever—as an accommodation from Allah. And what is with Allah is best for the virtuous. 199- Indeed, there are some among the People of the Book who truly believe in Allah and what has been revealed to you ˹believers˺ and what was revealed to them. They humble themselves before Allah—never trading Allah’s revelations for a fleeting gain. Their reward is with their Lord. Surely Allah is swift in reckoning. 200- O believers! Patiently endure, persevere, stand on guard, and be mindful of Allah, so you may be successful.

I do swear by this city ˹of Mecca˺— (1) even though you ˹O Prophet˺ are subject to abuse in this city— (2) and by every parent and ˹their˺ child! (3) Indeed, We have created humanity in ˹constant˺ struggle. (4) Do they think that no one has power over them, (5) boasting, “I have wasted enormous wealth!”? (6) Do they think that no one sees them? (7) Have We not given them two eyes, (8) a tongue, and two lips; (9) and shown them the two ways ˹of right and wrong˺? (10) If only they had attempted the challenging path ˹of goodness instead˺! (11) And what will make you realize what ˹attempting˺ the challenging path is? (12) It is to free a slave; (13) or to give food in times of famine (14) to an orphaned relative (15) or to a poor person in distress; (16) and—above all—to be one of those who have faith and urge each other to perseverance and urge each other to compassion. (17) These are the people of the right. (18) As for those who deny Our signs, they are the people of the left. (19) The Fire will be sealed over them. (20)

>>74 Surat Al-Hajj. 26- And ˹remember˺ when We assigned to Abraham the site of the House, ˹saying,˺ “Do not associate anything with Me ˹in worship˺ and purify My House for those who circle ˹the Ka’bah˺, stand ˹in prayer˺, and bow and prostrate themselves. 27- Call ˹all˺ people to the pilgrimage. They will come to you on foot and on every lean camel from every distant path, 28- so they may obtain the benefits ˹in store˺ for them, and pronounce the Name of Allah on appointed days over the sacrificial animals He has provided for them. So eat from their meat and feed the desperately poor. 29- Then let them groom themselves, fulfil their vows, and circle the Ancient House.” 30- That is so. And whoever honours the rituals of Allah, it is best for them in the sight of their Lord. The ˹meat of˺ cattle has been made lawful for you, except what has ˹already˺ been recited to you. So shun the impurity of idolatry, and shun words of falsehood. 31- Be upright ˹in devotion˺ to Allah, associating none with Him ˹in worship˺. For whoever associates ˹others˺ with Allah is like someone who has fallen from the sky and is either snatched away by birds or swept by the wind to a remote place.

>>666 Things are bad and will get worse, but one day things will become good because Allah(swt) promised us. We gotta endure until then.

>>376 Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi: PhD in Islamic Studies (Islamic University of Baghdad) Abu Ali al-Anbari: Degree in Islamic Studies (University of Baghdad). Turki al-Binali: Studied under a number of scholars and received ijaza from Shaykh Abu Muhammad al-Maqdisi. Just to mention some. The IS also has its own Islamic research office (Maktab al-Buhuth wa al-Dirasat).

>>576 The IS is from Ahl al Sunna wa al Jamaa. It is not like the Khawarij who are a sect that follows something other than the Sunnah.

>>550 The Islamic State isn't perfect and there are lots of things you may criticize it for. But if you would urge outright to not support it, then mention a state that is more sincere in its effort, one that applies Islam more thoroughly, so that the Muslims may support it instead.

So i guess praying here is also just playing too and so are wars and jihad and names of thing why take it so seriously man it s not like everybody can blow up mountains judt by feeling irritated

>>667 prayer is not a worldly affair.

ISIS are takfiri lol what do you expect Taliban are Maturidi (so irredeemably kafir from takfiri perspective) and it is true that in practice they do not fully implement islamic law but a traditional form of tribal law it's not like ISIS themselves observe islamic law anyway but hey any excuse is good to spread chaos in muslim countries I guess

>>314 See >>655 >>341 >not like ISIS themselves observe islamic law anyway Ok can you explain how?

Also - ISIS is not the name in use anymore. It's just the IS (Islamic State) now, because it's not limited to Sham and Iraq anymore.

Of course public affairs should be ordered around Islamic guidance. Secular politicians have no concept of God's sovereignty, so they think they can do what they want. "So fear not mankind, but fear Me. And do not sell My revelations for a little gain. Whoso judgeth not by that which Allah hath revealed: such are disbelievers." Al Ma'idah 5:44

>>481 >What is /Islam/s perspective on fundamentalism, is it based, Fundamentalism is defined as: A usually religious movement or point of view characterized by a return to fundamental principles, by rigid adherence to those principles, and often by intolerance of other views and opposition to secularism. Islam is a religion based on proof and evidence from the Qur'an and Sunnah as was understood by the Prophet صلى الله عليه وآله وصحبه وسلم and the sahabah. Islam is NOT a religion of personal or cultural opinions. The goal of Islam is to implement what one can from the core fundamental principles correctly without deviation. So a rigid, or rather, strict adherence to the Truth is obligatory. As for intolerance, yes, the Muslim loves what Allah loves and Hates what Allah hates for the sake of Allah. Are we intolerant of crime and criminals, yes, intolerant of the violation of sanctity of Allah and the ultimate nature of the reality established by Him, yes. And Islam is absolutely opposed to secularism. A Muslim that claims otherwise is either an ignoramus, a hypocrite or a total disbeliever. >will you wage jihad one day? .

Taliban seems to be the only government that takes Islam seriously so far. These are supposed "Sharia Law" countries: >The total number of divorces in 2017 could be 40 to 45 percent of the total number of marriages [in Saudi Arabia], which was put at 159,386, in the same year. >english.alarabiya.net/life-style/art-and-culture/2018/02/10/A-rundown-on-reasons-for-rising-divorce-rate-in-Saudi-Arabia- >The alarm has been sounded again in Kuwait after figures for 2017 show that around 60 per cent of Kuwaiti marriages have ended in divorce. >gulfnews.com/world/gulf/kuwait/alarm-sounded-as-divorce-rate-in-kuwait-reaches-60-1.2030151 >More than half of all Emirati couples in Abu Dhabi — 62 per cent — face divorce within the first four years of marriage, according to research conducted by the Department of Community Development. >gulfnews.com/uae/62-of-emirati-couples-in-abu-dhabi-face-divorce-within-first-four-years-of-marriage-research-shows-1.80952239

>>538 Love your answer. >Anyone that wants to go to war is a fool to begin with and is usually virtue signaling reminded me of the tacticool operators that joined the war in Ukraine only to realize it woulsn't exactly be the video game experience they expected it to be https://youtube.com/watch?v=TCbD4WBqPg4 >>611 >Taliban seems to be the only government that takes Islam seriously so far. Which is saying something, since their implementation isn't that strict(ly faithful to Shariah) Divorce however is not frowned upon in Islam, and can sometimes be the best resolution to an incompatible union. Zayd ibn Haritha divorced who would later become a Mother of the Believers. Who is to blame in this affair ? Can anything bad be said about these Sahaba ? Imo we should avoid regarding divorce with the same contempt as Catholics. It goes without sasying that when children are involved, the impact a divorce can (and will) have on them should be the principal consideration, before the parents' "happiness" or desires
