Before the abrahamic religions, there were for example the pagan religions all over Europe. They have still supporters as of today. Why should they be wrong?
Saying 'it must be right because so many people believe it' is in no way a sufficient argument.
If there we're 2 or more kings ruling a country, how would the country be. There would be no harmony, many contradictions etc. That's why I choose for monotheism instead of polytheism.
If you'd care to - otherwise those contradictions prove that Islam is not perfect. I mean, I understand that translations of the Quran are imperfect because they're not in the original Arabic, but they still count to some degree.
I forgot to say, thanks for the answer concerning Ramadan. I knew about the fasting, but your answer was interesting.
Actually, there is something intriguing me. You said it's the time when the doors of heaven are fully opened and hell is closed. What does that mean exactly? Is heaven not fully opened otherwise, do the deceased have to wait until Ramadan to enter heaven? What does that have to do with the still living, except that their prayers might be better heard? Do those who die during Ramadan and meant to go to hell, have to wait before entering? Have there been ghost stories because of that?
Not only, it's more accurate.
Muslims believe that the Arabic is more 'ure' and the perfect word of God and that translations cannot be fully trusted to convey that word properly.
Hmm... didn't know that, sorry about it. Another reason I don't believe in Judaism, is something the Jews did in the past. Worshipping an idol. The Golden Calf. They went into idolatry, Muslims never did.
Don't compare apples with pears.
how do you or did you come up with this idea?
In most interpretations of Sharia, conversion by Muslims to other religions or becoming non-religious, is strictly forbidden and is termed apostasy. Non-Muslims, however, are allowed to convert into Islam.[124] Muslim theology equates apostasy to treason, and in most interpretations of Sharia, the penalty for apostasy is death.
Islamic law does not present a comprehensive list of pure foods and drinks. However, it prohibits:
(...)
Slaughtering an animal in any other way except the prescribed manner of tazkiyah (cleansing) by taking God's name, which involves cutting the throat of the animal and draining the blood.
Liquor and gambling are expressly prohibited in the Qur'an, and Sharia law.
Qadi 'Iyad argues that Sharia does not allow freedom of speech in such matters as criticism of Muhammad. Such criticism is blasphemy and punishable by death.
Homosexual activity is illegal under Sharia;
There is no contradiction. Don't befriend them if they if they fight you, if they don't fight you, you can befriend. Simple as that.
nor shall you befriend the disbelievers
the so called "errors" are debunked
bout the atmosphere. 7 layers protecting us, all with different functions.
The idea of the seven heavens is very ancient and was well founded at that time which is completely contradictory to what we now know. This concept comes from the idea that the first heaven is the sun, the second heaven is the moon and the third to seventh heavens are mercury, venus, mars, saturn and jupiter. This verse also states that the stars are closer to the earth than the moon as they are in the lowest heaven!
I know a Muslim might say that this refers to a different concept of the seven heavens. But if that was the case, surely God would have explained it further, otherwise people would just think that it refers to what they already believed. If I was to write a book now, and in it I would refer to a completely new idea that I had and I called it "the big bang theory", it would be required for me to explain it further, otherwise people would just assume I was talking about what they all know to be the big bang theory.
In conclusion, if the Qur'an was written by an all knowing, all powerful god as a guide for people to follow, surely he would not write ambiguous verses that can be taken to mean anything. Evidence of the divine nature of the Qur'an would be a verse which clearly referred to scientific knowledge which was not known at the time, was not ambiguous, and which could not be refuted. However, there are no verses in the Qur'an which are like that.
What does that mean exactly? Is heaven not fully opened otherwise, do the deceased have to wait until Ramadan to enter heaven? What does that have to do with the still living, except that their prayers might be better heard? Do those who die during Ramadan and meant to go to hell, have to wait before entering? Have there been ghost stories because of that?
Why would Allah be so exclusive with his holy text as to only make it work for one specific language hardly if at all spoken or understood by a majority of the worlds population?
... I hope that this is enough for you...
No, your (!) first quote clearly says:
nor shall you befriend the disbelievers
It doesn't say "if they fight you".
Try again.
Sorce?
Simple as that.
Game over :P
It's written in the Talmud. I will search it for you up if you want.
Why else would palestinian womans been abused and children being killed by Jews?
Oh and Islam is more tolerant to other religions than Jews, sure of that.
