Ask about Islam
I appreciate this is a very random thread but it follows on from MBP's "Ground Zero" blog. A lot of times when I meet new people, I get asked questions about Islam and stuff that people don't know about.
I am not going to preach anything, simply answer any questions that you have. You can either post below or PM me and I'll answer. (I understand this is a bit of a risque thread, if you have genuine questions then please feel free to ask. If you wish to bash Islam or any other religion in this thread then please go elsewhere.

I heard that Muslims don't like keeping pets, because all animals have a purpose and being a pet isn't one of them. (which i think is quite reasonable) is it true?
This thread reminded me of one one another forum, and they kept saying muslin. (type of material)

No dogs, no pigs. But most people here keep cats. But they don't like, restrict them to a compound. So it's more like taking in stray cats and giving them an open home and food and stuff...

What are the basic beliefs? I know next to nothing about the religion.

There are 5 Pillars of Islam. You must pray 5 times a day, you must complete a pilgrimage to Makkah (holy city) once in your lifetime, you must fast one month a year, you must give 2.5% of your earnings to charity and believe in the declaration of faith. That's pretty much a very short overview! Quote:

Why do Muslims where the hat-like clothing on their heads and do both genders have to wear it?
How often do Muslims have services? When you say Muslims believe in Peace, is that similar to the Christian teaching? |

Just because a group of people-hating muslims drove an airplane into a building does not account for the sum of the whole religion. If that is so, then does Christianity promotes intolerance, hate and murder too just cause the Westborough Baptist Church likes people dying in war?

As said previously, Muslims pray 5 times a day and you can attend the Mosque for this or pray at home. On Fridays, the "lunchtime" prayer is compulsory to attend the mosque and a sermon is usually given. In terms of Christianity, you'll have to explain what you mean by peace in that religion. As 444 has said, please can you elaborate on this because it's pretty bold statement and you haven't said anything to back it up in any way. I'm not not sure how many mosques you have visited, imams you have listened to or even Muslims you know but your statement is grossly inaccurate. There are almost 1.5 billion Muslims in this world - how many do you know to be intolerant or murderers? The answer is very few in comparison to the overall figure. Stereotyping a whole religion on the actions of a few is incredibly silly. Do you believe the Catholic church promotes paedophilia?

Anyway, as I said at the start. If you want to "bash" the religion then this isn't the thread for it. You can PM me if you want.

I am a Hindu and an Indian so according to common belief amongst the ignorants I hate Muslims and Pakistanis. Now with that out of the way. I think it is utterly wrong to say that Muslim promotes intolerance infact I doubt any religion promotes that. There are always going to be people who distort the facts or the scriptures to suit their own needs and this does not happen only in Islam. It happens everywhere be that person be Muslim, Hindu, Jew, Arab, Christian, I can just go on. It all boils down to education and if a person is not educated it is very easy to brain wash and feed him lies which leads to the fanaticism that evolves into terrorism. For me all religion promote Peace and tolerance. I don't claim my religion is the best neither do I support views that any religion is best. Religion is meant to be a way for you to reach your peace and inner self. If Islam helps you get there then that so be it, if it is Hinduism then well done to you. it can be any religion or none that helps you reach your goals of spirituality. Peace is always the same in any religion and I am a bit surprised that some think that any religion would define peace as something different. How can so fundamental a concept be defined differently? There is a saying that says "Ignorance is a bliss!" I am sorry Ignorance is the reason why we see so much of fanaticism in the name of religion and anyone who tries to justify that an act of violence and decadence in the name of justice is right that he is the biggest bigoted fool. We talk about 9/11 or 26/11 (Mumbai) terror attacks by terrorists who happened to follow Islam and have stereotyped Muslims as god-forsaken and murderers. Heck I have heard and seen many cases where if the person had a big beard like many followers of Islam do then he is invariably harrassed terming him as a terrorist. Chrisitanity has had a bad past. Its wrong to term a religion as violent. No religion promotes that rather the followers who twist it to their own gains. I am neither promoting a religion here or denouncing any. All I want to say is that every religion is promoting its own path of peace and tolerance and spirituality. All of them have been created by humans. And humans by default are bound to err so ergo all religions will have its flaw. Don't stone the religion but rather those who in the name of religion do what is against that written in its scriptures. |
