It is through Universe and its laws, we identify the need for the Existence of an Originator. The immense vastness of the creation of Universe, the un-limited diversity of life is the evidence of his Super Intelligence, Compassion and justice in operating the Universe, through fixed laws of nature.<br /><br />Why do muslims accept and attempt to show us that Quran confirms the Big Bang theory albeit most of them do not understand it? <br /><br />Due to limited scientific knowledge they have. Most of the muslims are by name only; They have not gone through the extensive skepticism of thought and Universe to understand the Universe of Quran either. <br /><br />Why don't muslims accept Evolution theory which they do not understand and reject it simply because evolution of human goes against the islamic creation story? If you accept evolution theory, how can you explain Hominid ancestors of modern human in light of islamic creation story where it says Adam had no parents?<br /><br />I am strong supporter of Darwinian Evolution of life and I see alot of Quranic verses supporting it. In fact, it was the inter-specie conflict of the human species, which caused Angels to objected to the choice of homo-sapiens to be given consciousness. Adam was the first person, who achieved cognitive evolution. Cognitive evolution is the human being attaining the capability of Consciousness ( Abstract thought, sense of time, the ability of building hypothesis). Nobody knows how Consciousnesses emerged in humans, completely separating them from other life forms. Archeological evidence earlier hinted to this stage in evolution around 70,000 BC; but some latest findings points to emergence around 200,000 BC. Any way, what ever the date may be, this was the time, when Consciousness was injected in homo-sapiens, the basis of I am.<br /><br /><br />Regarding the Quran, how do we decide which translation & understanding is correct?<br /><br />( Laws of nature is the most accurate translation of Quran). This is because the realization that Quran is book of Originator comes from a number of truths of Universe, which could be known during 7th A, Truths which we found through repeated observations and experiments of scientific thought. If it failed and contradicted, it was loose its stature to be called the "Words of Originator".<br /><br />Is their anyway of doing a textual analysis to see how accurate the final version of the Quran was to the original? Or are we simply left having to accept Uthman’s word for it<br /><br />Yes. In 1972, the Yemen a Quran was found with carbon dating around 630-640 AD. It also contains a older version. Moreover, there were few companions, who disagreed with the Mushaf of Uthman; Notable is Abdull ibne Masood. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Contentoiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13962097369966718581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7701481815400252255.post-6224342276313767632019-12-01T14:23:29.609+06:002019-12-01T14:23:29.609+06:00Why this life is a test if the result is already k...Why this life is a test if the result is already known to omniscient Allah?<br /><br />Human life is the display of human determination and the choice which I make. It was I, who accepted the trust of personality. There are biological Darwinian traits in me, which pulls me to one directions; There is consciousness in me which aims to strive for another; The Burden of choice in me, determines who am I? <br /><br /><br />What was the point for this God in creating the human race? Are we just for a bit of fun - a type of game or thought experiment for him?<br /><br />The Creation is pure Grace of the Originator. He existed without need. He wanted others to taste the existence. But breathing in me His spirit (Consciousness) and subjecting me to the worst possible circumstances of life, He may want to see the capability of His spirit imprisoned in a mortal life.<br /><br />If allah is perfect who has no needs then why did he create human beings to worship him<br /><br />The Originator of Universe is not in need of worshipping Him. This has been explained in Surah Baqara. We need to worship Him to have Taqa in us- The ability of human race to feel the pain of others, to be compassionate, patient, loving and humble. ( They all are counter-Darwinian traits). <br /><br />Why does Allah hand out an infinite punishment for a finite crime? Is allah perfectly just?<br /><br />In which ever state I have groomed by Consciousness, I will carry it with me. It is human, who will fuel the fire of Hell with their accumulated jealously, hatred, oppression, impatience, lust, deception, anger of this life. It may be eternal or non-eternal, like a prison, which is a correctional facility, aimed to repair the ethics of human consciousness. <br /> <br />Was there a time before the creation of Universe? What was allah doing before he created the Universe?<br /><br />We humans are only aware of one dimension of time, which is change of states; It is this sense of time, which is used in Physics and quantified mathematically. Since Big Bang predicts, nothing was there before Big Bang, our concept of time as change of states vanishes because there was nothing which could changes states. However, Quantum fluctuation in nothingness requires time to originate the Universe from nothing. Which sort of time was in there in Quantum fluctuations? Quantum mechanism predicts existence of linear, cyclic or even -ve time. Since Quantum mechanics operated before Big Bang, hence a different nature of time, altogether incomprehensible to human mind,existed. SadhGuru, an Indian Mystic, specifically refers to it as "Kaal". He negates Einsteins General theory of Relativity by stating that when matter doesnt curve space-time, rather it is other way round. When Time curves, matter/existence is created. and I think , his statement has worth to consider. <br />Contentoiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13962097369966718581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7701481815400252255.post-59297450207821325792019-12-01T14:22:50.760+06:002019-12-01T14:22:50.760+06:00Thank you dear for your questions. It is very natu...Thank you dear for your questions. It is very natural that every rational and skeptic mind will ask these questions;<br /><br />Tell me one good thing that you learned from Islam which you would not have learned had you not been a Muslim?<br /><br />No degree of biological pursuit of life for maximization of resource or engaging in Darwinian conflict of life can bring inner peace in human life. True pleasure is willful surrender of biological instincts and to look for pleasure in consciousness . A Muslim can be any one who surrender, not the one who is born in Muslim family. Muslim is an act, not an ethnicity. In this context, there may be a Hindu Submittors, Christian submittors,Buddhist submittors. Quran refers to it in Surah Maida (5:69) and Surah Baqara. Submitting of biology is a long transformative process and is never achieved mere to be born in a Muslim family.<br /><br />Tell me one moral action that a non-muslim is unable to do precisely because he doesn't believe in Islam?<br /><br />A non Muslim is a non submittor; No construct of human intellect, whether it be Capatilasim, Modernism or Post Modernism has the capability of siding moral action over personal gain. Think of the damage caused by the Capitalist drug business, weapon industry, state atrocities, power struggle, nation states can bring havoc to human life. "Taqa" is one of first prerequisite of Hidayat meaning " The ability to think beyond ones own perspective. A submittor has cosmic perspective of life. <br /><br />Show me a photo of 9 year old girl that you're willing to have sex with?<br />(None)<br /><br />If you love Muhammad so much, then would you do your prophet a sexual favour if he had asked for it? <br /><br />If such situation happens, Muhammad would have automatically disqualified for being a Prophet for engaging in a non-consensual biological instinct of life.<br /><br />Why sex with female slaves is not considered adultery in islam?<br /><br />It was a social construct of the time. you already know that it is very difficult to alter the social fabric of the society drastically due to structural functionalism, but you will see that it has been discouraged. Submittors are encouraged to free the slaves and marry them. Moreover, conditions of keeping the slaves have been made so stringent that it virtually seemed no less than a freed person. The prophet saying " Feed them as you feed yourself; Cloth them as you cloth yourselves "<br /><br />How many slaves can a muslim have? And why Muhammad practiced slavery?<br />Same as above, But i would add here that only those women were enslaved who participated in war. It is not like ordinary household women to be enslaved.<br /><br />Why are 4 wives allowed but 5 wives are forbidden? <br /><br />Highly mis-understood issue. You would see dear that the occasion where liberty upto four wives have been given were regarding the Orphan girls , who were left un-attended after the killing of their parents in a battle. To ensure there protection and honorable living, these instructions were issued. Again, the limit was conditioned with equality of treatment, which is again too much, impracticable to meet. <br />Contentoiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13962097369966718581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7701481815400252255.post-56944417693597695012019-11-03T23:38:25.780+06:002019-11-03T23:38:25.780+06:00thats too correct . i am really surprised this is ...thats too correct . i am really surprised this is the one suggested by Sameer. what the...fraz006https://www.blogger.com/profile/12065200895991491164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7701481815400252255.post-45314364076185781202019-10-15T10:58:58.960+06:002019-10-15T10:58:58.960+06:00Unbelieveble 🙄 !

Indeed this is how the Quran and the Hadiths itself spread about, first through oral transmission before later into a standardised textual documents; this, in addition to considering Alexander romance stories were diverse and predated Islam, I think it's highly likely the Syriac Alexander romance story predates the Quranic story, particularly orally and perhaps too predated in textual form - its possible, ancient documents can be forever lost to time (like Ibn Ishaqs first Biography of Muhammad). <br /><br />>"E.A.

Fundamentally though Both Budge and I have no actual hard evidence for either of our claims, beyond speculation and this leads to another more pressing matter.<br /><br />That far more important matter is not the derivative nature of Islamic texts, but sound evidence for the various claims Islam makes, prove that dhul qarnayn existed, prove the quranic story happened, prove that there's a deity. Anyone can make stories, figures and gods up, proving them with actual evidence is a whole other matter. That asserted without evidence can be dismissed without evidence, you wouldn't believe me if I claimed Mormonism is the true religion and all its stories, without providing evidence. With all due respect to my Muslim friends, I and many others do not view your deity and religion to be well substantiated with sound evidence, let alone believe its fantastical and unsubstantiated stories. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7701481815400252255.post-27569002619342762622018-09-25T20:16:42.414+06:002018-09-25T20:16:42.414+06:00Hello!
