  1. According to Fox News yesterday (broadcast haven't seen an article) the troops began to split into factions for and against Maliki. I guess it would appear if you don't have the troops backing you, then you apparently don't have the necessary cahones to fight for the office you think is rightfully yours. Welcome to democracy where the will of the people outweigh the wants of the singularity.

     

    As was told to Forest (almost what 20 years ago?), Run Maliki Run! Wonder if Maliki will start shrimping...nahh!

  2. Let them raise the flag on the White House. What happens when the lights go out? The roaches crawl from out of the cupboards. What happens to roaches? A big can of RAID gets sprayed. It will be as if America was born again. Then we will all be called born-again Americans. Then, just then, maybe the monkey in the WH will be thrown out of office.

     

    Whats good for the goose is good for the gander.

  3. TBomb if you think I slammed you, I apologize that was not my intention. I research anything and everything when I have time to do so. The way you originally posted was a little misleading as already stated by someone else. With stupid people playing stupid games (talking about the fake gurus), its a fools errand not to look into things further. BTW I don't just go to the link someone posts and call it a day, I look around the website and do other checks on that website and use a search engine for other info. To me it looked as if someone attached something significant to the record of file and that is all it was. Just like the majority of people here, I am waiting on the rv as much as everyone else is as I am staked in this with my own personal investment, hopes, dreams and aspirations for when it eventually does come about. My brother admonishes me because I haven't hit my goal investment yet because I haven't been in this as long as  most of the people here and I pray for a little more time to do so which is why he admonishes me. Oh well set goals and strive for them. If you don't reach them, and even if you do, learn, adapt, make new ones and keep moving forward.

  4. Greg check the date. This date is approximately one month after that.

     
    This is the main page to get to the catalog entry. Notice the multiple instances three pages worth going back to at least 2010 and maybe earlier.
     

     

    This is the entry itself.

     

    I apologize for getting back so late was involved in working on some projects in Eclipse.


    If it is true the WTO accepts Iraq, it would not be like a new country joining but the extension of what it was before its status was suspended. Wasn't Iraq in the WTO before the ousting of Sadam? If so it would just merely be a removal of suspension not like it was a brand new member to the WTO.

     

    As for the 10 years idea, 10 years would be 2004 + 10 years = 2014, btw.


    Hopefully I will get my coding position by Oct 1


    Here is the WTO Accession page for WTO. http://www.wto.org/english/thewto_e/acc_e/a1_iraq_e.htm there was also no news of this on its web page under news section.


    Last entry on this page was in 2010.


    Good night.

  5. This is nothing more than a card catalog entry for documents. Like your local library system for books. It is a repository for information about the documents contained in the library. There is nothing more than that. You can speculate all you want on whether Iraq has entered the WTO and it would be great if they did but this is not announcement to that effect. If you pulled up a card catalog for the book Harry Potter and the Sorcerer Stone you would get the same properties of this entry. This document pertains to an entry that was a note based on the revised document already in entry.

     

    This is no more no less than an entry into record that a note was entered into their system regarding this document.

  6. That was blank (null mark). De-restricted would be like de-classified in that those who do not have the appropriate access level are able to read the document. Since the document has not been Derestricted, only restricted personnel with the classification of member and above may read this document. 

     

    Okay you can start playing the theme song to "For Your Eyes Only" now.

  7. This is a false alarm. The OP left out a key word in the copy and pasting of the "Catalog Record".

     

    This is referring to a document entry with the topic of "accession to the wto; accession to wto -- Iraq." The Access level to read this document is restricted to members only. The status of the document is "Complete" not the accension is complete but the document is complete. The following is a more apt copy and paste. This is merely a revision of a previous document already entered in the Catalog records. "Move along nothing to see here"

  8. Who is the translator of your Noble Quran?   You say everytime you respond to a post of mine I change the subject? Well answer the questions presented and I won't have to change the subject. I change the subject to get you respond to what is being discussed. Start at the beginning and answer the questions. What I find funny is you call me a Jesus follower, as if that was said in a derogatory fashion. Your Imam has brainwashed you well. Speaking ill of the prophetss of Islam is haram. But you used Jesus and Isa so you are safe there. You speak of ISIS and IDF in the same sentence but HAMAS has integrated itself into the very citizens that were told to evacuate. How about I put some pit vipers inside your house, you live with them day in and day out. If those vipers don't get you killed then no one will say anything about them? But if I call a pest control guy and comes in and eradicates the pit vipers and kills your dog, after he told you to remove the dog, in the process, you blame the pest control guy for being the worst of creatures because he killed your dog. If you don't see the correlation here, you never will. Gazans are starting to wake up like they did with the PLO. They are starting to figure out that maybe living with pit vipers may not be such a good idea. I wonder why? I guess hiding caches of RPG's, missiles and guns inside homes, hospitals and schools may not be such a bright idea for the citizens of Gaza? I wonder why they hide them there not in some Amory.

     

    Quit blaming the pest control guy for eradicating the pit vipers.

     

    I am done with this conversation because you aren't even worth my time anymore I got better things to do. And no I never run from a debate. I'd rather speak to a wall. At least I get a better response from the wall. One bit of advice, it's never a good to contradict your own argument like you did in the  post when you put peace came after the muslims conquered the people and the conquered people were content. You shot yourself down with that one. Just a little tip for you in the future. Smiles.


    Oh Maggie siding with those who wish to do you harm, isn't speaking out. Its the opposite of that. Case in point, HAMAS who only want the demise of ISreal and could careless about the citizens (women and children) they use to shield themselves with. Reminds of the protest sign a muslim was carrying I once saw, "Behead those who say Islam is violent"

  9. Okay last night I dug out my Noble Quran from the King Fahd Complex in KSA. This version is from the arabic to English translators Al-Hilali and Khan. I also dug up my notes that I had long put away. This is just a tease of what I have:

     

    Shahih Bukhari Volume 6, Book 61, Number 513:  Narrated 'Abdullah bin 'Abbas:  Allah's Apostle said, "Gabriel recited the Qur'an to me in one way. Then I requested him (to read it in another way), and continued asking him to recite it in other ways, and he recited it in several ways till he ultimately recited it in seven different ways." Seven different versions of the Quran admitted by their prophet's own lips.

     

    I want to correct something I said. In Islam there are Readers and Transmitters (I said translators which technically they are). The Reader is a person who is famous for "reciting" the quran and the transmitter is famous for putting the reciter's words to ink. For example, Ibn Kathir (maggie and amber should know who this guy is, if they don't they don't know Islam except a propagandist version of it and all of this is for naught) Ibn Kathir is a Reader who has two Transmitter's named al-Bazzi and Qalun. The current area of use for this Reader is Libiya, Tunisia and parts of Qatar. The Noble Quran has been translated into English by many people. One of the most widely used is Yusef Ali. I use a Quran translated from Dr. Hilali and Dr. Khan. 

     

    It is important to know the translator because for example Surah 7:99 

     

    In a transliteration of Arabic

    Afaaminoo makra Allahi fala ya/manu makra Allahi illa alqawmu alkhasiroona

     

    A rough translation

    Did they secure God's scheme/deceit? So no(one) trusts God's scheme/deceit except the nation the losers.

     

    There is no doubt that makr means deception, scheming, but in most Muslim translations this meaning is totally lost:

     

    Yusef Ali translation into English

    Did they then feel secure against the plan of Allah? - but no one can feel secure from the Plan of Allah, except those (doomed) to ruin!

     

    Pickthall

    Are they then secure from Allah's scheme? None deemeth himself secure from Allah's scheme save folk that perish.

     

    Sher Ali

    Are they then secure from the design of ALLAH? And none feels secure from the design of ALLAH save the people who are destined to perish.

     

    Al-Hilali and Khan

    Did they then feel secure against the Plan of Allah. None feels secure from the Plan of Allah except the people who are the losers.

     

    Why do I even bring this up, because these translators deliberately chose to mask the meaning of the word makr in arabic to plan/scheme in English which can totally change the meaning in English. It is no wonder that Amber never heard of the word Al-fitnah. 

     

    Here is another verse in which has been mistranslated into English 

    But they (the Jews) were deceptive, and Allah was deceptive, for Allah is the best of deceivers (Wamakaroo wamakara Allahu waAllahu khayru al-makireena)!

     

    As to the "rights of women" here are a few things you should know

     

    Women are property

    Surah 2:223 Your wives are tilth for you, so go to your tilth, when or how you will and send for your ownselves beforehand. And fear Allah and know that you are to meet Him and give good tidings to believers.

     

    The vast majority of women go to hell, From the prophet's own mouth :

    Sahih Bukhari Vol 7 Book 62 Number 124 Narrated Usama: The Prophet said, "I stood at the gate of Paradise and saw that the majority of the people who entered it were the poor, while the wealthy were stopped at the gate (for the accounts). But the companions of the Fire were ordered to be taken to the Fire. Then I stood at the gate of the Fire and saw that the (vast) majority of those who entered it were women." 

     

    Note: The Arabic word used for "the majority" here is 'Aammah (or 3ammah), and it indicates beyond any shred of a doubt (in Arabic) the *vast majority*. Again the mistranslation into English to appease English speakers.

     

    Surah 4:34 Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah has made one of them excel the other, and because they spend from their means. Therefore the righteous women are DEVOUTLY OBEDIENT and guard in the husband's absence what Allah orders them to guard. As to women on whose part you see ill-conduct, admonish them, refuse to share their beds, BEAT THEM but if they return to obedience, seek not against them means. Surely Allah is Ever Most High, Most Great.

     

     

    We all knew polygamy is legal in Islam ( a new TLC Sister Wives series coming??)

    O people! be careful of (your duty to) your Lord, Who created you from a single being and created its mate of the same (kind) and spread from these two, many men and women; and be careful of (your duty to) Allah, by Whom you demand one of another (your rights), and (to) the ties of relationship; surely Allah ever watches over you. And give to the orphans their property, and do not substitute worthless (things) for (their) good (ones), and do not devour their property (as an addition) to your own property; this is surely a great crime. And if you fear that you cannot act equitably towards orphans, then marry such women as seem good to you, two AND three AND four (mathna WA thulatha WA rubaAAa); but if you fear that you will not do justice (between them), then (marry) only one or what your right hands possess; this is more proper, that you may not deviate from the right course. And give women their dowries as a free gift, but if they of themselves be pleased to give up to you a portion of it, then eat it with enjoyment and with wholesome result. S. 4:1-4 Shakir

     

    And how do you treat those four wives? Read on.

    And they ask you a decision about women. Say: Allah makes known to you His decision concerning them, and that which is recited to you in the Book concerning female orphans whom you do not give what is appointed for them while you desire to marry them, and concerning the weak among children, and that you should deal towards orphans with equity; and whatever good you do, Allah surely knows it. And if a woman fears ill usage or desertion on the part of her husband, there is no blame on them, if they effect a reconciliation between them, and reconciliation is better, and avarice has been made to be present in the (people's) minds; and if you do good (to others) and guard (against evil), then surely Allah is aware of what you do. You will NOT be able to be equitable between your wives, be you ever so eager; yet do not be altogether partial so that you leave her as it were suspended. If you set things right, and are godfearing, God is All-forgiving, All-compassionate. But if they separate, God will enrich each of them of His plenty; God is All-embracing, All-wise. S. 4:127-130

     

    Realizing this, two conflicting explanations have been proposed:

    (a) Sura 4:129 has canceled out the right of Muslims taking more than one wife, which implies that Sura 4:3 has been abrogated. This explanation is an indirect admission that these texts are contradictory.

    (B) Sura 4:3 is talking about providing equally for all of the wives, whereas 4:129 is talking about not being able to love all wives the same. The problem with this explanation is that the texts themselves do not make such distinctions. One will not find it stated anywhere that being just in one verse refers to providing financially for all wives whereas in the other passage it refers to loving them all equally. This interpretation is nothing more than ad hoc.

     

    Muhammad, whom many Muslims claim was the walking Quran, failed to treat his wives fairly thereby violating the express command of Sura 4:3. He even wanted to divorce one of his wives named Sauda on the basis that she had gotten too old and was no longer attractive to him, something which is quite disturbing to say the least.

     

    The Hadith

     

        Narrated Umm Atiyyah al-Ansariyyah: A woman used to perform circumcision in Medina. The Prophet (peace_be_upon_him) said to her: Do not cut severely as that is better for a woman and more desirable for a husband. (Abu-Dawud: bk. 41, no. 5251, Hasan) 

     

    Women are dumber than men in Islam

     

    Call in two male witnesses from among you, but if two men cannot be found, then one man and two women whom you judge fit to act as witnesses. (Qur'an 2:282, Dawood) 

    (This verse is highly used in Islam to convict women when a man rapes her. The woman is said to have been in an illegal sexual act. This verse was also used in Australia as a defense when a gang of Islamic men raped an Australian woman. Subsequently it was thrown out and the men were all convicted and sentenced to jail.)

     

    Narrated Abu Said Al-Khudri: The Prophet said, "Isn't the witness of a women equal to half that of a man?" The women said "yes". He said "This is because of the deficiency of the women's mind." (Bukhari: vol. 3, bk. 48, no. 826, Khan) 

     

    A male gets double the inheritance a female gets:

    The Quran in Sura 4:11 says: The share of the male shall be twice that of a female . . . . (Maududi, vol. 1, p. 311)

     

    Ever want to get back with an ex after divorcing him... well the Quran has an answer for that:

    The Quran in Sura 2:230 says:

     

    And if the husband divorces his wife (for the third time), she shall not remain his lawful wife after this (absolute) divorce, unless she marries another husband and the second husband divorces her. (In that case) there is no harm if they [the first couple] remarry . . . . (Maududi, vol. 1, p. 165)

     

    Here is how prostitution is legal according to the Quran through muttah marriages:

     

    Sura 33:50, a lengthy verse, grants Muhammad wide latitude in his marriages:

     

    O Prophet, We have made lawful to you those of your wives, whose dowers you have paid, and those women who come into your possession out of the slave-girls granted by Allah, and the daughters of your paternal uncles and aunts, and of your maternal uncles and aunts, who have migrated with you, and the believing woman who gives herself to the Prophet, if the Prophet may desire her. This privilege is for you only, not for the other believers . . . .

     

    Women who should be speaking out against against Islam aren't. Case in point Maggie and Amber. These passages are from your own texts, texts that you defend as peaceful. But continue on deceiving everyone. I will follow up with more specifically to your "not know what Al-Fitnah" is, which I find extremely hard to believe. Remember though Allah is the Best Deceiver... he says so himself.

  10. I would be more apt to believe a govt spokesperson from Isreal than I would from Hamas who has a known history for deception and lies. Look up the word taqqiya. Something your prophet said was okay to do in time of war with the infidel/kafr/unbeliever. 

     

    The UN even verified that caches were found in its schools. or did you miss that? Why are caches being hidden in schools, because of people like you when something goes awry and children die because they are being used as shields. This is where your argument goes awry. You attack the Isreals when the actual culprits are those who wish to do Isreal harm. These people hide behind women and children just like you do. You use their deaths to further your agenda, the hate of Isreal, jew and christian. Your postings are quite evident of that and the other attacks to other members of this forum when any one dares speak out against Islam. The gig is up Maggie, I don't seek to convert you. What I have done, everyone has seen clearly here. You have outted yourself through postings. I bet you are so angry now aren't you. You and amber tried to come at me showing abrogated verses. I have let you and her dig your own holes. The problem here is I know Islam and I have forgotten so much more because I studied it and debated it with real muslims not converts. I didn't just read iit like a novel. Ipicked over the words did the research checked the claims and double checked them. Keep on talking though, it helps other people see what Islam is really about. I don't hate Islam should it reform but it won't. So until then I will continue to expose it for what it really is a religion of hate, submission, slavery and death. Peace in Islam only comes after the world has become Islamic. That is the truth of Islam. 

     

    Have a good night and sleep well.  Peace out!


    Maggie you missed the point of chronological order. You would know it better as a timeline on facebook. lol


    And now the attacks begin. Bring em on!


    Sorry meant amber not Maggie doesn't know chronological order. Chapter 2 was not revealed before chapter 3 by the way. But you show that don't you.


    amber I already stated I am not Jew or christian...try again... you only have about 9300000 religions to go through. I suggest you start with number 1, since you know that. You might get it by the end of this century.

  11. From Post#67:

     

    What is your source? Who is saying that Hamas said they "couldn't leave"... Israel??

     

    That was your original reply... then you started to modify. I responded to your question and answered in kind. I guess the Isrealies didn't go to house number 455 Main Street in Gaza and specifically tell them to evacuate either. So now it's not enough for Isrealis to drop fliers onto the citizens of gaza and tell them to evacuate. They have to go to specific houses and buildings to tell them to evacuate. Give an inch take a mile. The Isrealis dropped fliers telling people to evacuate. I guess you never been given an evacuation order. Contrary to your belief, evacuation recommendations are given to general areas not specific addresses. If the school resided in one of those areas and the people did not evacuate, then its Hamas's fault not Isreals because it was Hamas who told them they could not. Nice of you to have left that out of the discussion.

     

    If you are going to quote sources, please tell me which sources you deem viable so I know not to quote from them so you cannot say that source is junk.  

     

    As to your question:

     

    "Israel also claimed that Hamas had forced civilians to remain in the Gaza City neighbourhood of Shujai'iya..."

     

    but from a source you quoted (so you must deem this source as credible source) the Guardian:

     

     

    Quotes:

    "The Israeli military has provided a translation of the warning flyers it has dropped over several areas of Gaza."

    "Hamas interior ministry continues today to force Gazans to ignore IDF's calls to go to safe areas. Hamas uses Gazans to protect its rockets." in a tweet by Ofir Gendelman     

     

    You really need to look at the maps, they tell a lot.  

     

    The real question is why are you defending Hamas who hides in amongst the residents of Gaza storing their arms in schools, mosques and hospitals? 

     

    I haven't deceived you in any form or fashion. 

     

    Guess I will take another apology from you now.

     

    Note: I don't deem facebook as a credible source as it is highly opinionated nor do I view Wikipedia as credible as it too is highly opiniated and most time not based off fact when it comes to matters like these. Please use verifiable sources not from social media site like facebook. Twitter was used in the the Guardian article and comes from a reliable and verifiable source. I am sure others would agree with me that they don't go to facebook to get their facts.

  12. Here is a quote more germaine to the claim is not giving permission to its citizens

    "The UN's discovery of arms caches in two of its schools in the past week has given Israel's assertions credence. "UNRWA [the UN agency for Palestinian refugees] immediately informed all relevant parties and issued a statement strongly condemning the abuse of its premises," said a spokesman, Chris Gunness. The UN agency UNRWA's shelters have been shelled on four occasions in recent days, despite officials giving precise coordinates to the IDF.

    Israel also claimed that Hamas had forced civilians to remain in the Gaza City neighbourhood of Shujai'iya after the IDF warned them to evacuate ahead of its assault on Sunday. Civilians were being "held as hostages", said Peter Lerner, an IDF military spokesman."

    By the way one of the arms cache disappeared.

     

    http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/jul/24/gaza-hamas-fighters-military-bases-guerrilla-war-civilians-israel-idf


    You claimed they did not warn to evacuate. I know what the link showed. I only needed to show that indeed Isreal does warn the people in the Gaza Strip of which you claimed it did not. 

     

    And this statement proves without a doubt that this is being done (from the first article)

     

    "...Dr Basman Alashi vowed that he would never leave them, regardless of the physical dangers and an Israeli warning that the surrounding neighbourhood must be evacuated."

     

    This would be like saying Islam is peaceful and showing only those verses to show Islam is peaceful. I posted after I thoroughly reading the article. I know what it said and yet I posted it. Why? I will leave that for you to figure out. Same with the second article from the Guardian another UK paper. Shall I investigate more papers that you quoted for this proof that Isreal does warn the Gaza Strip people before military action? And Hamas is using women and children as shields. To which you have yet to say something (anything about!).  Again I will again thank you for your apology in advance.

  13. Picking a source you quoted, going to that site and doing a search on the words Isreal and evacuation; the search returned this article date July 16, 2014. Isreal was clearly telling people in the Gaza strip to evacuate but those warnings went unheeded and people were not given permission to evacuate by Hamas.

     

    I will thank you in advance for your apology.

  14. Blitzer ... this is the sad part...and something the left does very well... its all word games and technicalities wit these types. "Innocent" in the eyes of a muslim is not a Jew, Christian, apostate or even athiest.

     

    Amber..please show me where the word.."humanity" appears in the Quran nor does the word "human" appear in that verse. No such word, humanity, ever appears in the Quran. You must have the PC version. Because that is not the translation I have from the KSA Quran I received way back when.

     

    Do, pre tell, amber which sect of Islam are you, will make my research a little easier as I know which books you believe and you don't. You are probally wondering why I stopped or didn't even comment on your Ulysses rendition of so called peaceful verses. I will now and show you that what you thought was peaceful really isn't. First, since you don't know words very well - what does conquered mean? Second, why does your prophet have an Army to conquer lands that are not his isn't that stealing from them? Can a conquered people really be content and satisfied? Were the Native Americans content and satisfied? Are the Palestinian people content and satisfied? Are the Coptics or Assyrians content? You quoted " Muslims protected Christian churches in the lands they occupied from being harmed." How many Coptic Christian churches were destroyed in Egypt? (protected is past tense here) If Muslims did protect Churches why are the Christians in Islamic lands not allowed to repair them or make additions to them? If Islam is so tolerant of other religions why do you when you have to pay the Jiziya have do so subdued and with humility?  Explain to everyone here what a polytheist is. Who commits shirk and why is this bad in Islam? Define an unbeliever if you can? Who burned down the Great Library of Alexandria? Answer these questions then we will start on the rest of your quotes.

     

     

    Again with the women and children. Want to get at the western civilization bring up the children then the women. Let's see Isreal said they wouldn't attack for 24 hours on Saturday. So what did Hamas do? They ignored the baby blood drinking Jews and launched more rockets. Some peace there. Amber methinks you doth protest too much. As you see the UN school that was hit was told to evacuate by the baby blood drinking Isrealites. Hamas said they couldn't leave. This leads me to believe they were more scared of Hamas than the rockets. So who are the real killers of women and children in this case? War is not an exact science. never has never will be. Mistakes happen. But when you are told to evacuate so you won't get killed, you should evacuate instead of being a PR number for Hamas and the PLO and what ever scumbag group wants PR from dead women and children. Besides if a terrorist wears civies (civilian clothes to those never in the military) how do we differentiate between a civilian and terrorist? Again, a dead terrorist in civies is considered a civilian. Way to rack up numbers eh?

     

    Seems to me, Isreal has been more than gracious in this conflict but Hamas needs weapons and money. So lets go try to poke at the pit viper and see what we can shake out of the money tree!

  15. Quoted by Amber

    .E. the Prophet (Peace be upon him) will be a lawyer against such a Muslim, hence no sane Muslim should expect to win the case when the lawyer against him shall be none other than Muhammad himself (Peace be upon him).

     

    The correct word you are looking for here is Intercessor. Your prophet seeks to replace the messiah (whether you he has come and will come again or whether you believe the messiah is to come) in this regard. This shows that your prophet was jealous of the messiah that had come before him and intended to replace him. I know the story of how your prophet will lay prostrate before god... but how will he know where god is if he is imaginable and has no body, arms, legs or head? 

     

    Like I said please know the history. You probably don't even know in the book of Miriam (who the mother of Jesus, is also the sister to Moses in the Quran) speaks of how all muslims will descend to hell before your prophet intercedes on your behalf. Even your prophet once asked will he go to heaven or hell proclaimed he had no idea where he would go. At least all the prophets before him knew. 

     

    Chronological order (2 follows 1, 3 follows 2 which follows 1 etc. ) is not how the books are structured in Quran. The first book of the Quran was not written first and the last book in the Quran was not written last. In between its a hodgepodge order. You may be able to fool everyone who doesn't know this and then cherry picking the peaceful verses, but your prophet didn't write the Quran in order. Imagine that! Besides how does Allah change his mind? Jews and Christians and Muslims are supposed to be friends but now they are classified as as unbelievers so its the duty of Muslims (through Jihad) to bring them around or eradicate them all together. Fitna... is an interesting word. Go look it up apparently you have never heard of it. Why should I do all the work for you?

  16. This is why I don't post Quranic verse.

     

    Which word are you referring to Amber in the verse I quoted fitna? 

     

    As far as one Quran in the whole world goes... why is there a differnce in the amount of chapters between a Sunni Quran and a Shia Quran? Hint one of them has approximately 8 more chapters. Why was Aisha's Quran burned? Why is the Quran in Istanbul totally different the arabic Quran you and I hold in our hands? If there was only one quran why do the qurans differ from each region of the world? I will give you a hint on this reseach readers and quran.

     

    Because you read the Quran and pick up out "peaceful" verse out of the it, doesn't mean it holds true. There are countless peaceful verses in the Quran that have been abrogated by the being in the sky we can not even imagine. Truth be told for every Judiac and Christian story that  has been found in the Quran, the version found in the Quran has been perverted towards Islam. For example the story of Cain and Able. 

     

    We can throw verses back and forth all you want, but if you don't know the chronological order in which the Sunahs of the Quran was written, you really don't know your Quran. Why do I say this its because of the verse of abrogation found within. 

     

    You need to look up the verse I quoted instead of summarily dismissing it as I know that is what you have done because it tells the truth of islam. I can show verse after verse starting in Chapter 2 of the Quran that says to kill unbelievers that would counter every single verse you posted. The verse I quoted to you is a verse of jihad. I am sure you have heard of that word right? Jihad? Yeah give some story about inner struggle. Remember I said peace is a funny word? The inner struggle refers to part of the whole. Inner struggle is only a piece of Jihad and not the full entirety. 

     

    Instead of pushing verses, how about you do something better with your time like find out the real truth and not some concocted story of how its peaceful. Islam is a piece religion...it wants a piece of me and you and everyone else it can get its grubby little hands on.

     

    Amberamin... you got to do better than that... I know all your talking points. I have debated them thoroughly for years. Please come on... now. When you debate about that fatwah you are debating agianst a mullah of your faith. I didn't say it. So how dare you go against your clerics! /s off

  17. I usually don't post verses but because I was asked I will post this one and the quote below. 

     

    Here Amber you can start with these...

    Quran (8:39) - "And fight with them until there is no more fitna (disorder, unbelief) and religion should be only for Allah"  
     
    I stand corrected the No Muslim killed for for killing an unbeliever/kafir/infidel mainly found in the hadiths here is a few of them I found
     
    A Muslim should not be killed for killing a non-Muslim." [At-Tirmithi]
    Sahih Bukhari 4:52:283
    Sahih Bukhari 1:3:111
    Sahih Bukhari 9:83:50
    Abu Dawud 39:4527
    Abu Dawud 20:3224 
    Abu Dawud 20:3225
     
     
    From Islamweb.net (http://www.islamweb.net/emainpage/index.php?page=showfatwa&Option=FatwaId&Id=92261) Question I have heard that if a Muslim kills kafirs without any Shariah reason he cannot be given a capital punishment but if a Muslim kills another Muslim or if a kafir kills a Muslim then he should be given capital punishment. To support this argument they quote a Hadees the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “A Muslim may not be killed against an unbeliever” Bukhârî through the narration of `Hazarat Ali. However, I understand that the Hanafî law code permits retribution for the non-Muslim victim’s family to be administered on that family’s behalf against a Muslim murderer. The evidence for that is "And we prescribed for them therein (in the book): The life for the life, and the eye for the eye, and the nose for the nose, and the ear for the ear, and the tooth for the tooth, and for wounds retaliation. But who so forgives it (in the way of charity) it shall be expiation for him. Whoso Judge not by that which Allah has revealed: such are wrong-doers." (Sura Al-Mai'da 45) “O you who believe! Al-Qisaas (the Law of Equality in punishment) is prescribed for you in case of murder: the free for the free, the slave for the slave, and the female for the female. But if the killer is forgiven by the brother (or the relatives) of the killed against blood money, then adhering to it with fairness and payment of the blood money to the heir should be made in fairness. This is alleviation and a mercy from your Lord. So after this whoever transgresses the limits, he shall have a painful torment” [al-Baqarah 2:178] Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “It is not permissible (to shed) the blood of a Muslim who bears witness that there is no god but Allaah and that I am the Messenger of Allaah, except in three cases: a married adulterer, a soul for a soul, or one who leaves the religion and splits from the jamaa’ah.” al-Bukhaari; Muslim). Can you please explain with the evidence from Quran and Sunnah which is a right opinion?
    Answer First of all, you should know that a Muslim should not be killed for killing a belligerent non-Muslim according to the consensus of the scholars icon--7.gif. According to the view of the majority of the scholars icon--7.gif a Muslim should not be killed against a free non-Muslim under the Muslim rule. The evidence about this is the saying of the Prophet icon--1.gif"A Muslim should not be killed for killing a non-Muslim." [At-Tirmithi]

    Moreover, according to the view of the majority of the scholars icon--7.gif the title (and rulings) “disbeliever” is applicable to a free non-Muslim under the Muslim rule. However,Abu Haneefah, and the scholars of his School of jurisprudence icon--7.gif are of the view that a Muslim should be killed for killing a free non-Muslim under Muslim rule; their evidence is the two verses which the questioner mentioned. Nonetheless, the correct opinion is that of the majority of the scholars icon--7.gif that is based on the above Prophetic narration, which is a direct proof related to the case of dispute. 

    Allaah Knows best.

     

     

    Hope this helps Amberamin your own prophet said it. That was from five minutes of from my search engine of choice. Any other verses/hadiths you would like explained?

  18. I am following this conversation because it reminds me of why I stayed up late all those years learning Islam and what the truth was. Some of the verses I speak about come from Chapter 4 of Quran. I received a quran from the KSA long ago and its buried deep within my boxes. If you want I will dig it up and all the notes I have. If I do this and I give you the verses from which these appear, you need to apologize to me for being skeptical that your being actually said these things. Also I want to point out something in front of everyone reading this thread, every time a non muslim brings a hadith to a muslim they will always tell you that hadith is weak because the authority was weak. Amberamin, I challenge you to find the verse(s). Right now I have been up since 6AM working on assignments I was given late last night. I am not making excuses but surely you will say I am. You and I both know that the hadiths are every bit as important as the Quran is as it is the interpretation. I will look for you but it might be a bit, but really you need to look for yourself to see it in there.

     

    I agree with you,early on the prophet of your religion was friends with Jews and Christians. However, as your prophet grew in your so-called religion, those early verses were abrogated and the Jews and Christians fell out of grace with your prophet. You should know that the Quran is not in a chronological order. However as humans we think linearly. So we are duped into thinking that the Quran was written chronologically. The wife beating verse appears before chapter 9 of the Quran if memory serves me right.

     

    Here is a question for you Amberamin, why does every chapter in the Quran start with a verse that no one but Allah can understand except Chapter 9?  Also if you don't know what the Pact of Omar is, I suggest you look that up and find out the history behind it. You won't find it in the Quran.

     

    Ever wonder why your prophet got angry and killed those who dare question him and the visions he had? Don't just study the Quran. Study the traditions (the hadiths) as well they are as equally as important.

     

    When I was last studying the Quran there was a Muslim group in Canada that was pushing for reform in Canada. These people are the only ones I have ever heard condemn the atrocities that have been committed by Muslims. 

     

    If you speak arabic, search the Egyptian papers before the ousting of their president. There are court cases where this verse, No muslim blood shall be spilt for killing a kafir,  is used to not condemn murderers of non christians to the death penalty. In fact some of the cases have even returned not guilty based on this verse. So here is real world cases in which this exact verse has been used to deal justice in Islam.

  19. amberamin, on 25 Jul 2014 - 02:58 AM, said:snapback.png

    The Daash & ISIS are not jihadists.No Muslim is allowed to kill the innocent people nor he can imagine of the destruction of their own Holy Sites or Shrines.According to Quran,''One who kills a human,he kills the whole humanity.''Islam allows everyone to live their lives freely according to their Beliefs & Religions.These so called Islamists are driven out of Islam.These are the hell people.I think all the religions teaches peace.Why all the international community is silenced on the genocides of the muslims of Palestine by Israel.what is the sin of the innocent children & women.Islam don't allow the killing of women & children.Don't the international community can see that tyranny & injustice.And you guys blames that the muslims are cruel.That's completely unfair.  


    Wasn't it also said by the same book (paraphrasing), No Muslim blood shall be spilt for killing a non-muslim/kafir? 

     

    The peaceful verse you quoted was abrogated by the one I paraphrased. Islam teaches peace will come when the lands harbor no kafir (but hey it teaches peace so that must be okay!). Until then Islam subscribes to the notion that should kafir be allowed to reside in the land, then that land is in a perpetual house of war until such time the kafir is either eradicated or expelled from the land. Islam means surrender. Really what is cruel and unfair about dropping leaflets and telling the people in the Gaza Strip that the military is coming and citizens need to evacuate then having Hamas declare it not permissible for people to do so? Who is the real tyrannical villain in this conflict? Isreal wants to live in peace, Hamas(shiite) and Hezbollah(sunni) won't let them. What is fair in your eyes is such a perverted concept. When no one in the ME would take the lowly outcasted Muslims, the Isrealites opened their lands for them to come live with them peacefully. There has not been peace in Isreal for over 2000 years. This conflict is just an ongoing conflict since way before you were ever born. Both sides have blood on their hands but Islam more so than the other. Understand the history not some revisionist history or bias towards either side and you will see the truth for what its worth. What's ironic is you want the world to speak up against Isreal and the world is more anti-semite at this point in time than it was since WW2. Why are you only crying for the Palestinians living in Isreal? Why are not you speaking out about the deplorable conditions that Palestinians are living in across the border in Jordan (an Islamic country) or Lebanon. Palestinians are kept in tent cities in despicable conditions of unsanitary filth. Talk unfair, Isreal is a small country. It doesn't have much real estate compared to that of Jordan. And yet it is only Isreal that the Palestinians want. More Palestinans die in those tent cities than they ever do in Isreal. Where are your tears and sobs for the children in Jordan and Lebanon. Ah, you can't speak out against your fellow Muslim and thus we have come to the very crux of the problem. Speak out against the kafir and cry foul, there is no justice and oh the humanity of woman and children. You have no humanity when it is biased towards an agenda that you cry out against, for it is the groups like Hamas and hezbollah that if had their way would commit genocide towards Jews and Christians and athiests. Your tears go unabated by me. When you know the real truth you understand a lot more of what actually is going on than ever. I suggest you wake up and visit a website called memri.org. It will enlighten you unless you truly believe that Jews drink the blood of the new borns and are the "sons of apes and pigs" (from the quran).

  20. lets see...they're blowing-up their OWN religions' shrines? OK! That'll show them! Hahahahahaha. See what happens with mental patients are well-armed?? There ought to be a law, by-God. Dunno, just saying...........Happy Ramadam

    In Islam, there are sects. ISIS belongs to the Sunni sect. The mosque that was blown up was of the Shiite sect. These are the two main sects of Islam. To put it in terms of Christianity, this would be like a Catholic group blew up a Protestant church. The sects are divided over the fact when their prophet died he did not name a successor. This is tribal mentality. Think of when before King dies he names a successor should he have no children. The Shia and Sunnis have been fighting each other and killing each other since the death of their prophet. It is also been declared from a fatwah - religious edict , that Shiites are not muslims. So sunnis blowing up mosques and shrines of the shiites could technically be said they are not blowing up their own religion's shrines and this is how Al-Qaeda and ISIS feels on the subject matter - according to Sunnis, the Shia are not muslims. Please understand the culture and region better to understand why this is really happening. I agree they are all mental patients!

  21. Is it any wonder Islamic men (and the women whom defend it) mutilate women in such a despicable "way of life" as from the get go of this politcal theocratic religious cult women have been denied rights and have been killed all in the name to pray five times a day (the origin to the praying five times a day is quite funny and has to do with their prophet ascending to heaven from the furthest corner of earth - the mosque in Jerusalem. ) Women have little to no rights in Islam because women are deemed to be unclean due to their mensas. Islamists will claim that when a woman is raped they have justice for the woman. Here is the truth, when a woman is raped and she is Islamic, she has to have four male witnesses who actually see the rape in progress. If there are no witnesses who do come forward, then she is labeled as an adulterer and according to Al-Sharia as outlined in Quranic verse and hadiths she is subjected to be stoned to death. Is this justice?

     

    Honor Killing is a very real horror for women not just in the Middle East but all over the world. In the last five years, there have been several cases of Honor Killings here in the United States (yes the good ole' US of A) and you wonder why states are trying to pass laws to the effect that international law cannot be used as precedence for US law. Women's rights in Islam are little to non existent as they are told what, when and how to do things. I could sit here and tell you funny stories all day long that are written in the hadiths that have nothing to do with their pederant prophet. Like how you are supposed to sleep a certain way or because a little devil (djinn) pees in your nose(or ear?) that you perform ablution, etc. The real war on women is not this false facade being portrayed by feminazis and demorats but by an omnipotent being who has no physical form that we could ever imagine. This being through the voice of man seeks to denigrate women in all forms and fashions and has been succesful at it for over 1500 years because the temptation for men is too great.

     

    The real war on woman is right in front of the world and yet so many women turn a blind eye to it. It's like that of doemstic abuse, a woman will love her abuser until she is clearly shown the wrong and harm it is doing to her. Once she is free then and only then can she come out from under the shell she has formed. Is it any wonder that women are treated this way when a Islamic author writes a book in the 21st century about how to beat your wife and not leave a visible mark and this is given a thumb's up by Shah of Iran or the majority of the Islamic world? (In all fairness, most so-called peaceful muslims will tell you, you can hit your wife with a toothpick or toothbrush. Beating your wife is outlined in the quran.) 

     

    Do not come at me telling me Islam is a peaceful religion,tell me to stop the hate or call me an Islamophobe when you do nothing but spew hatred through the divisive words and your actions are to bring more women into the fold of this so-called religion. Islam preys on the weak and feeble. They gain power through numbers. A woman who has a low self esteem is very vulnerable to these predators. Women who are Islamic cannot marry, date or even be seen fratenizing with any male outside of Islam. This is the very basis of why Honor Killings happen. And yet the Islamic men(and women sometimes) prey upon women no matter what the women subscribe to in their religion. It has been said if Islam cannot conquer by the sword and it cannot conquer by the word, then it shall conquer by breeding the kafir out of existence.

     

    Here is a fun fact: Do you know what three rocks are for in Islam? Hint: When you step into the bathroom stall, you are supposed to step in with your left leg first. (All according to the Hadiths)

  22. Peace... funny word peace. Spelled one way it could mean tranquility silence and calm. Spelled another it could mean a part of a whole.

     

    Here is the gist of the situation, people have become too politically correct. Why do I say this because when someone disagrees with what you have to say even if it is in factual evidence, they will try to come at you with PC terms like hater, racist, oh the children! and any other PC term that has become negative in this world. You may not be any of those but since you have shown an ugly truth to which they rather not see the light of day, they come at you in all their vilest ways. Are we to espouse that a person wanting to stop the hatred, mutilation of women and children, to stop the killing of women in the guise of Honor or whatever else is the argument du jour, cannot be for the very thing when it is they themselves who espouse divisiveness with mere words?

     

    The mantra "Stop the hate" is so passe and utopian but when it is bantered about the one saying it somehow has all the music of the heavens play and the angels sing all their glory upon this person. This person could do no wrong. Beneath their false facade and bravado they claim to have, they are doing more harm than they ever could and they are totally the opposite of what they portray themselves to be.

     

    I remember a time when speaking with Muslims that they claimed I was a racist because I dared speak the truths of Islam and debate them using only their texts. Their claim got shot down rather quickly because being a Muslim is not a race no more so than a being a New Yorker is a race (they might be something else entirely but I digress). A civil debate with a person or group of persons cannot be had when there is no argument that comes from their side. "Stop the hate." is not a viable topic nor is it a comeback to the question at hand. It is more visceral from those whose lips it is spoken with as much hate as they claim you have. While the utopian dream is for every person on this god given planet is for no hatred towards fellow man kind, the reality shows us even that the utopian dream is no more than that and that it will ever be. How can a person espouse to this utopian dream with all their heart and soul turn around portend they have no hatred in their own hearts? Dig deep enough and we all find hatred in our hearts in some form or fashion. However, one should not proclaim "Stop the hate" when they wish to silence the truth because in the end their wanting to keep the dark on that very truth makes more and more people turn to hate the very thing they wish to silence and it shows the hatred they have. People are people. You cannot change that fact. Whether we are old or young, brown or green it does not matter for we are all people.

     

    Islam needs to have the truth told about and not the so called peaceful verses that have been abrogated. Truth is their prophet once proclaimed through the verses in the Quran to be friends with Christians and Jews  but it didn't take long before the Allah he spoke to turned on them and vile verses descended upon their prophet in a convulsive vision akin to an epileptic fit. Islam was created at the whim of one man who claimed could neither write nor read. And yet he somehow managed to run Khadija's business very profitably before he wound up in the cave talking to the angel of light. Me thinks those who doth protest too much are hiding something very grave and very evil. Until the world learns the truth of this treacherous vile evil cult, they will way over protest to very souls on earth they wish to harm.

     

    Now I shall return to my stupor as I work on my studies to increase my wealth by increasing my productivity and knowledge in the realm of IT to become a better productive member of society. However, speak to me of Islam and you will not hear hatred, you will hear truth that you should go and determine for yourself whether it was truthful or not. I may pop up now and again but the individual who prompted this soliloquy from me today has more hatred in her heart than that I have seen from anyone else on this forum and yet it is her that shouts from the highest roof top "Stop the hate!".

     

    Good night and whatever you believe in, keep believing and keep your faith in that.

  23. Ooh...Ooh...ooh can I make a prediction on when the RV will happen?

     

    Why thank you so very much for obliging me this opportunity. Okay here goes....

     

    My prediction: The RV will happen on the day it happens, not one day sooner and not one day later. On that day, this site shall no longer exist. 

     

    And a little advice: let your little feet run as fast as it can to wherever you go to cash in. I will follow you in a bit. Smiles.

     

    Is my prediction negative? Nope. See there is always a light at the end of the tunnel unless the tunnel caved in.

     

    DISCLAIMER: I renounce any guru status that I may claim, you may claim or the world may claim I may have attained in reference to that of the IQD RV or whatever it may be.

     

    /s off

     

    Have a good day and keep your head in the clouds and your feet firmly on the ground. (LOL that reminds me a story of Adam in the quaran and hadiths. nevermind.)
