u r wrong bro zakats uses r stated in sharaia it can b used for


I think you should read the part you quoted.
I stated that the Qur'an does not make a mention of who collects Zakat and where it goes -- it only asks that alms be given to the poor. If you have any proof against that, please show it.

Sharia law isn't a defined tablet, it is an encompassing view of all that Islam dictates as law -- meaning it is subject to interpretation based on your interpretation of the Qur'an and your interpretation [and acceptance] of all the Hadith available.
And I already stated you need a comparable measure in gold.
And no, I disagree, the rate is 1/40.

If you're a shia, then its possible your beliefs are different.
Otherwise, I don't think I made any errors.

Wiki.

The Qur'an is also unclear on who is to collect the tax. Today, in most Muslim countries, zakat is collected through a decentralized and voluntary system, where eligible Muslims are expected to pay the zakat based on fear and love of Allah, personal conscience, and peer pressure.[13] Under this voluntary system, zakat committees are established, which are tasked with the collection and distribution of zakat funds.[14] In a handful of Muslim countries - including Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan - the zakat is obligatory, and is collected in a centralized manner by the state.[13] In countries where zakat is collected by the state, the economic effects are often negligible, doing little to alleviate economic inequality.[15] In Jordan, Bahrain, Kuwait, Lebanon, and Bangladesh, the zakat is regulated by the state, but contributions are voluntary.[16]

[9:60] Charities(Sadaqaat) shall go to the poor, the needy, the workers who collect them, the new converts, to free the slaves, to those burdened by sudden expenses, in the cause of Allah, and to the traveling alien. Such is GOD's commandment. GOD is Omniscient, Most Wise.

Well, we can go on arguing about what the text starts with, either way, that isn't a very specific mention as to who is going to collect it.
Either way, does it matter? In the end, just be nice and give a little.

turning of a muslim from islam,homosexuality,certain cases of adultery and some cases of robbery are punishable by death in sharaiya so is mockery of any prophet of allah not just muhammad SAW

I thought the rules in the sharia are the rules in the Qur'an. And I don't see any verse that says to kill an apostate, a homosexual, someone who commits adultary or a robber.

hmmm... strange...

Although i'm gay and my girlfriend is Muslim, therefore i'm totally against it, you could argue that it's there.

"When a man mounts another man, the throne of God shakes."

"Kill the one that is doing it and also kill the one that it is being done to."

Although, this was written by man, not allah.

I read: inna-maa as-sadaqaat, and not innalzakata(or whatever).

And about zaqaat(charity):

There are eight categories of people (asnaf) who qualify to receive zakat funds, according to the Qu'ran:

1. Those living in absolute poverty (Al-FuqarÄ'
2. Those who cannot meet their basic needs (Al-MasÄkÄ«n)
3. The zakat collectors themselves (Al-ÄmilÄ«na 'AlaihÄ)
4. People whom one is attempting to persuade, who might want to convert to Islam (Al-Mu'allafatu Qulūbuhum)
5. People whom one is attempting to free from slavery or bondage. Also includes paying ransom or blood money (Diyah). (Fir-RiqÄb)
6. Those who have incurred overwhelming debts while attempting to satisfy their basic needs (Al-GhÄrimÄ«n)
7. Those working for an Islamic cause (FÄ« SabÄ«lillÄh)
8. Travelers in need (Ibnus-Sabīl)

Zakat may not be given to descendents of the prophet Muhammed, nor may it be given to parents, grandparents, children, grandchildren, or spouses. It is also forbidden to disburse zakat funds to organizations that pay salaries to their employees, or use the money for investments.(Wiki)

btw; does nobody wonder something about Islam(or don't want to ask something about it)?

Source.

lol, these are hadiths, and not verses in the Qur'an. The sharia is not based on hadiths, but on the Qur'an. The Qur'an is not changed, and cannot be changed. But people can change hadiths. For example;

Hadith: âGod talked to me and shook hands with me. He placed His hand in between my scapulas and I heard the coldness of His hand in the middle of my chest.â
Hanbal

112:4 - ââ¦and there is none like unto him.â

So, how can God shake, if He's not like a human?

----------------------------------------------------

Hadith: The persons who will receive the severest punishment will be painters.
Bukhari-Tasawir

4:48 - God does not forgive who set up partners to God, but He forgives anything else to whom He pleases.

----------------------------------------------------

And:

"Although, this was written by man, not allah."


What do you mean?

Ah apologies, i misread the first question.
The qu'ran version is slightly more passive.

The Qur'an doesn't say anything. It just says it's bad, nothing more. The strange thing is, nowhere in the Qur'an does it say to kill homosexuals, while the hadith says that you shall kill them. Strange right?
