You know what bro!

It is not good to stretch truth to serve your narrow purpose. Many Islamists these days are committing the same mistake. I hope and pray that you are not one of them.

First you ask others to "use common sense", then at the very next moment you ignore the same old common sense.

Haven't you learned that Quran (or any book for that matter) SHOULD not be quoted out of context????

If you did, then you would not be quoting 33:59 WITHOUT providing the context.

33:59 is part of a full story that perhaps starts at 33:53.

This part of HOLY Quran is dealing with a particular situation, where Mohammad pbuh was being harassed by bunch of lowly uncouth Buddoos.

these Buddoos would show up unannounced and try to push their way through Muhammad pbuh house. Then there were hypocrites who were hounding newly converted Muslim men and women.

In order to stop all that uncouthness, Allah says cover yourself. This is nothing different from what we would in WAR Time, or during an anarchy.

However in a perfectly peaceful time where Muslim women are respected, and they are not living among uncouth Buddoos, the context of 33:59 does not apply.


Here is the context. Try to read it first before jumping on conclusions. Thank you.


For the rest of your quotations, try reading the contest too.



[33.53] O you who believe! do not enter the houses of the Prophet unless permission is given to you for a meal, not waiting for its cooking being finished-- but when you are invited, enter, and when you have taken the food, then disperse-- not seeking to listen to talk; surely this gives the Prophet trouble, but he forbears from you, and Allah does not forbear from the truth And when you ask of them any goods, ask of them from behind a curtain; this is purer for your hearts and (for) their hearts; and it does not behove you that you should give trouble to the Apostle of Allah, nor that you should marry his wives after him ever; surely this is grievous in the sight of Allah.
[33.54] If you do a thing openly or do it in secret, then surely Allah is Cognizant of all things.
[33.55] There is no blame on them in respect of their fathers, nor their brothers, nor their brothers' sons, nor their sisters' sons nor their own women, nor of what their right hands possess; and be careful of (your duty to) Allah; surely Allah is a witness of all things.
[33.56] Surely Allah and His angels bless the Prophet; O you who believe! call for (Divine) blessings on him and salute him with a (becoming) salutation.
[33.57] Surely (as for) those who speak evil things of Allah and His Apostle, Allah has cursed them in this world and the here after, and He has prepared for them a chastisement bringing disgrace.
[33.58] And those who speak evil things of the believing men and the believing women without their having earned (it), they are guilty indeed of a false accusation and a manifest sin.
[33.59] O Prophet! say to your wives and your daughters and the women of the believers that they let down upon them their over-garments; this will be more proper, that they may be known, and thus they will not be given trouble; and Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
[33.60] If the hypocrites and those in whose hearts is a disease and the agitators in the city do not desist, We shall most certainly set you over them, then they shall not be your neighbors in it but for a little while;

YOu are acting very ignorant purposely. Religion being equated to treason? Religion is a state of mind. Today I could be believing in Muhammad and Allah tomorrow my mind may sway towards the Hindu cow. After a few months I may believe in Moses and come back to Muhammad. To equate leaving Islam to treason is laughable.

If Islam is truly one entity (economic, political, social etc) we can unanimously say that 99.9% of Muslims have already caused treason. Why don't you advocate the executions for the Saudi kings? yourself? your father? me?



Please try harder.

I dont have to try harder at all. There is NO compulsion in religion. You dont have to become a Muslim. But once you do, its not a revolving door. Thats the law. Period.

As for Universal Ceclaration of Human Rights- let me know when Christians can build their churches in Saudia or Jews/Hindus can build temples KSA thn we'll talk about Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Amazing Shamraz. No moral back bone at all. Its a simple equation. If you believe in universal human rights, you defend them regardless of the country, the color of the person's skin or their ethnicity.

You on the other hand do the opposite. You base your support on human rights based on the lighter skin color. Well done on being an Uncle tom.

To prove you are a hypocrit I will use your own words.

You support laws that are compatible with their values - for the french. Yet you denounce Saudi Arabia for keeping laws that are compatible with their values. See the hypocrasy? Well done.

I guess the concept of morality means nothing to you.

Sarkozy, is a complete idiot. While, I'm no fan of burqas, if a woman can be naked or almost naked in France, then wny can't she be completely covered up? If it's a woman choice to wear a burqa, I don't see why the government is jumping up and down to take that freedom away.

A few points;

1. There is an issue with identity and not just on ports but elsewhere too. A couple of weeks ago a couple of men dressed in burqas robbed a jewellery store in UK for instance. So face covering garments may be unacceptable in banks and jewellery stores.

2. Many non-Muslims living in Muslim lands such as sikhs, hindus, xtians in Pakistan were living there “form the beginning” so to speak and really have no choice. In contrast Muslim immigrants to west knew they were moving to non Islamic states and that's where their children would be brought up. No one promised them anything special that majority did not approve of. Most Muslims still can go back to their ancestral lands owning to dual citizenship. So Islamic concept of Hijra is a real option unless they want to stick around for worldy gains.

Human rights for those who don't believe in them? From that stand I think French should kick anyone’s back side back to their own countries who, do not believe in human rights as a matter of principal. Let not the intolerant reap the benefits of tolerance. That’s what spoiled them in the first place.

Thieves have often used ski masks and bandannas to conceal their identities. I don't see you, or anyone else for that matter, supporting a wholesale national law banning those garments. But ski masks aren't traditionally associated with a religion you hate, so they must be okay.

1. So did you feel the same way when French Sikhs tried to appeal to UNHRC, and Indian officials directly appealed to French authorities in an attempt to get the turban ban repealed? Or was that all okay, because you don't hate Sikhs?

2. On what basis are you claiming that most have access to dual citizenship? Have you done a survey of citizenship laws across the Muslim world, and compared that to Muslim demographic data from France?

3. And what about native born Muslims in the West? Apparently you don't realize that they exist. In the US, native born African Americans are the single largest racial group among Muslims.

If I had a store and somebody comes in wearing a ski mask, I know that he isnt there to shop.

They are always fee to emigrate to another country. Saudi Arabia comes to mind. If you are the citizen of a country and understand that you cannot follow the laws of the land, then it is time to pack up and move.If the citizen muslims find it difficutl to follow the laws of the land emigrate to a muslim friendly country. I dont know if SA allows citizenship to suffering muslims though.

Islam is not a country nor does Islam prevents anyone from changing their religion.

There is No Compulsion in Religion, Source: The Holy Quran and the Prophet's teachings


Quote:
2:256 There is no compulsion in religion, for the right way is clearly from the wrong way. Whoever therefore rejects the forces of evil and believes in God, he has taken hold of a support most unfailing, which shall never give way, for God is All Hearing and Knowing.

16:82 But if they turn away from you, (O Prophet remember that) your only duty is a clear delivery of the Message (entrusted to you).

6:107 Yet if God had so willed, they would not have ascribed Divinity to aught besides him; hence, We have not made you their keeper, nor are you (of your own choice) a guardian over them.

4:79, 80 (Say to everyone of them,) 'Whatever good betides you is from God and whatever evil betides you is from your own self and that We have (O Prophet) sent you to mankind only as a messenger and all sufficing is God as witness. Whoso obeys the Messenger, he indeed obeys God. And for those who turn away, We have not sent you as a keeper."

11:28 (Noah to his people) He (Noah) said "O my people! think over it! If 1 act upon a clear direction from my Lord who has bestowed on me from Himself the Merciful talent of seeing the right way, a way which you cannot see for yourself, does it follow that we can force you to take the right path when you definitely decline to take it?°

17:53, 54 And tell my servants that they should speak in a most kindly manner (unto those who do not share their beliefs). Verily, Satan is always ready to stir up discord between men; for verily; Satan is mans foe .... Hence, We have not sent you (Unto men O Prophet) with power to determine their Faith.

21:107 to 109 (O Prophet?) 'We have not sent you except to be a mercy to all mankind:" Declare, "Verily, what is revealed to me is this, your God is the only One God, so is it not up to you to bow down to Him?' But if they turn away then say, "I have delivered the Truth in a manner clear to one and all, and I know not whether the promised hour (of Judgment) is near or far."
88:21, 22; also see 24:54 And so, (O Prophet!) exhort them your task is only to exhort; you cannot compel them to believe.
