Right behind you.......
I basically created this thread for two main reasons:

-Fullfill my part according to the last verse of the Surah no. 14, Surah Ibrahim.
-Clear misconceptions and give answers to querries of fellow members regarding literally any matter as many people make critical controversial and unauthentic about our beautifull and flawless religon.

So over here you can post your querry regarding any matter in which you seek Islamic teaching or viewpoint. I will try my level best to answer them. However I request you to observe the following rule while posting:

- Not more than three people ask their questions at a time: since i am a human and cannot reply to all of you at a time. Plus i will need a HELL lot of patience and knowledge to do that.
- Secondly this is s serious and sensitive thread: So you should always plan and then ask a question rather than firing it away. Blasphemy will not be tolerated and will immediately be reported.

Why does Islam order to kill a person who converts from Islam to another religion?
Why was Islam spread on the back of sword? Most of the Islamic regions were forced into Islam by conquering them?
If Allah knows everything, why was Iblis (satan ) created in the first place? Why was he given high ranks ?
If the jinns already had freewill why was man created ?
Why Islam is anti-women, the Quran says women were just created because hazart adam was bored ? WOW ?

Your questions are fully justified but please i request you all to adopt a soft tone. These are very serious matters and any little wrong things and your faith is at stake......

Now nobody here will want to turn into a non-Muslim.

@ everyone:

Please this thread can possibly change people's lives from bad to good. I urge you all to avoid flammable things; every problem here can and INSHALLAH will be solved peacefully.

@devilcallsmedad: I will give you a full answer to all the questions shorlty as i have to do proper research to answer all queries. I hope you will excuse me for some time............Thanks??!!

Answers too long so i am replying in a new post; here goes my view:

Q1) Islam does not command to kill a person the moment he turns away from the reilgon but gives the person a chance: At first you give him time to reconsider and if he does not return leave him. He repeats the process another time and than another time only then he is surely to be killed. As to why he should be as far as i can logically think it goes this way.....
Example: You are the commander and are leading a an army in a battle. You suddenly find out that there is a conspirator who is plotting against your army.... What would you do? You would obviously kill him the moment you see him or if not then you would spare him and give him a second chance. He does that again and you kill him immediatley.............. I think i made the point. This is Islam: dude. Its a matter much much serious than victory in a battle field coz your life in this world would make or destroy your life in the hereafrter.

Q2) The answer to this Q requires a very deep knowledge of the history of all the battles took place back then so i would avoid answering it only from my knowledge only but one thing for sure: Islam was not spread by the sword but because of the good character of Muslims at that time......Detail will be given later.

Q3)
If Allah knows everything, why was Iblis (satan ) created in the first place? Why was he given high ranks ?
If the jinns already had freewill why was man created ?
I'll take that as one question. Iblis was a creation of ALLAH who was perhaps the most pious one of his kind. That is why he was given high ranks. When he denied to bow before Hazrat Adam on the command of ALLAH he was doomed. Now if you want to question why were you created than i think you should reconsider. Think like this:
One day while you were walking in an open place in the night, you suddenly fell into a deep well. Now if you start wondering why you fell then you will spend your life but will not be able to get out. Now that you are in the only thing you can do is get out. The way to do so is present in the for of THE Holy Quran and other sources.

Q4) Kindly please give me the refernece no. of the verse you are referring to.......

Hope i answered your querries in a convincing manner.

@ desolator:

According to my knowledge no sea food is Haram. This actually depends upon you. E.G you consider snake a sea creature so obviously its Haram ( I have seen people eat snake's eggs = Haram). As long as the creature is water dependent it makes it a "sea-food" creature.

And no squid is definelty not Haram.

Ok, I have a few questions that I've been wondering about regarding Islam and how modern Muslims live in this world today.

1. In Islam, financial interest is not allowed. There are no if's and but's about it, interest is not allowed for Muslims. Why is it then, that the entire Muslim world (Saudi Arabia included) operates their economy on the basis of interest? Central banks of all Muslim countries (State Bank of Pakistan in our case) raise or cut interest rates to control overheating of economy or to control inflation. People in Muslim countries take out loans for homes, cars and all sorts of other commodities on an interest. Why is this happening? Why is the entire Muslim world ignoring this command by Allah?

I have asked the above question to a lot of smart and devout Muslims. Never has anyone given me an adequate answer. Even my highly religious friends dads own credit cards. What is going on here? The entire Muslim world is ignoring this rule because interest is a very convenient invention. Also, can you propose an alternative (although this bit might be asking for too much since nobody has done it yet).

2. Every Muslim is supposed to pray 5 times a day. There are no ifs and buts about it. This is the most basic of requirements. Yet, 95% of the Muslim world does not pary 5 times a day. We (including even me most of the times) pray 5 times a day only during Ramzan and then go back to being the way we were. Why is this? I see people doing all sorts of anti-Islam things and then they see someone else doing something anti-Islamic and they start preaching. Do you think anyone who does not even pray 5 times a day has a right to preach to anyone else? In your view, will Muslims ever go back to praying 5 times a day? Hasn't it already become 'acceptable' to only pray on Friday?

3. Do you think Pakistan should be a secular country? Do you think Islam is something the government needs to force somebody to adhere to? Such as the government forces us to not drive our cars with tinted windows etc do you think government should enfore religion on everybody? If you think that government must force adherence to Islam, which version of Islam should be implemented? How far will it be taken? Do you wish to see Pakistan being a secular country like Turkey, or a religious police state like Iran or the Taliban era Afghanistan?

Thanks if you answer.

First thing first..

Which Sea Food are forbidden in Islam

Fishes:
In Islam the only fishes you can eat and is also said by our Holy prophet fish with scale’s on them is Halal, and with out scales are Haram.

Reason:

1, with out scales fishes eat human flesh and eat shit things, which are not allowed in Islam.
2, Scales fishes will only eat green plants and minerals in the sea, which is good for health.

Interest is Haram no dout about it, The only ways Interest is allow in some reason is only for Widows, and that is also not fully permitted, if a widow has no one and cannot survive and the only option is to gave some money and take interest, to live then she can take it, only the person will say that I will give you such percentage on such capital, widow is not permitted to request to give interest on such capital money.

Some time scholars permitted it for other reason as well.

Hasn't it already become 'acceptable' to only pray on Friday?

The only reason is this that we have forgotten Allah and His prophet and his Family, and involve our self in this false and material world, which is due to be finished but still ALLAH loves us very much so he had made RAMZAN in which we atlases pray and try to be closer to Allah and his Prophet and his family, so we would not go to HELL, but still we fight in this world for useless things. If we stop watching and follow western cultures we would be saved.

3. Do you think Pakistan should be a secular country? Do you think Islam is something the government needs to force somebody to adhere to?

My point of View The whole world is not safe; we are living our lives in a dangerous world. I dout it Pakistan will implement Islamic laws, they are already soled Pakistan to American and Israel ministers. We cannot do any thing, until and if a person like KUMANE will get up and make a revolution, which happen in Iran nothing will change in this country. I wish and hope Pakistan would become like Iran. Iran has no fear from any one.

Or we all Muslim should us slave of American. That will show ever one what freedom really was.

OK dseolator. In addition to what Jchang said any creature that is solely dependent on water, meaning that taking it out of water wikk result into it's death is Haram. One thing more is that it is not un-scaled fishes which are haram but man-eating most probably since i dont think that whales are Haram.

@jChang:Thanks for the help bro. I appreciate that.

@ fahad007: Your help will be appreciated and is welcome.

@ Brightside.

I'll take 1 and 2 as a single question as you are asking for why the muslims today are not doing what they should be. Now literally speaking there are limitless reasons for this. Some are:

- The've forgotten that one day they are going to die and leave this world. The've forgotten that they will rise again and will be held strictly accountable*.
- The've forgotten the sacrifices and hardships endured by our beloved Prophet (pbuh)*.
- They think that money and pleasure is all what is needed.
- They have sold their EMAN for wealth.
- They dont know of the destruction that awaits them.
- They dont fear Allah's wrath and always claim that he is mercifull and will forgive them.

And yes no matter how bad you are you or how unreligous you are, preaching Islam has got nothing to do with it. Because of you a man may get close to Allah and you will be responsible for that nomatter how bad you are. And of-course you will be rewarded for that.

3) Islam is a religion of peace my friend. You are by no means allowed to force your religon over another. Setting u an Islamic state means that you setup a state based upon Islamic principles and run the country as Islam says. In this you are certainly not allowed to force a religon over any Human. An Islamic state should guarantee protection of rights of religous minorities.

And brother keep one thing in mind. Being an Arab does not mean that you are a born Angel. Arabs are humans who can indulge in sins like all non-arab Muslims. In terms of status all men and women are equal in the eye of Allah.

He repeats the process another time and than another time only then he is surely to be killed. As to why he should be as far as i can logically think it goes this way.....

I think i made the point. This is Islam: dude. Its a matter much much serious than victory in a battle field coz your life in this world would make or destroy your life in the hereafrter.
This makes no sense, converting from one religion to another is in no way similar to conspiracy. Even then i would never kill the conspirator in your example. I'd lock him up, killing people for anything other then murder is barbaric and i don't see how converting to a different religion deserve to actually die. It is his life and he has the freedom to live it, if Allah doesn't like it throw him in hell when he dies.
Q2) The answer to this Q requires a very deep knowledge of the history of all the battles took place back then so i would avoid answering it only from my knowledge only but one thing for sure: Islam was not spread by the sword but because of the good character of Muslims at that time......Detail will be given later.
I'll give you a few examples, Muhammad bin Qasim attacked sindh when Raja dahir had never attacked a muslim nation, Babar the Mughal emperor also attacked the hindu empires first, infact the whole Mughal empire and many other muslim empire's were conquered by force and the musims attacked first. The biggest example is the conquest of Mecca, mulsims attacked meeca and took over by force not by strength of preaching right under the Holy Prohpet and many of the old enemies of the Prophet were brutally exceuated by the muslims even though they had declared general amnesty.
Q4) Kindly please give me the refernece no. of the verse you are referring to.......
I don't know the verse no, but this is how the story goes. Allah created Adam, adam was bored, allah created hawa from his ribs. This presents another dilemma, Allah is all knowing then when didn't he know that adam would need a companion and create hawa right at the start ?

I'll take that as one question. Iblis was a creation of ALLAH who was perhaps the most pious one of his kind. That is why he was given high ranks. When he denied to bow before Hazrat Adam on the command of ALLAH he was doomed. Now if you want to question why were you created than i think you should reconsider. Think like this:
One day while you were walking in an open place in the night, you suddenly fell into a deep well. Now if you start wondering why you fell then you will spend your life but will not be able to get out. Now that you are in the only thing you can do is get out. The way to do so is present in the for of THE Holy Quran and other sources.
It still doesn't answer my question, Jinns already had "freewill" unlike angels so why was mankind created, jinns are capable of disobeying allah and capable of both good and evil. Infact they seem to be the perfect creation and there seems to be no need to create man.

Brothers! I know something about see food. U know HARAM eatable are not available commercially in Saudi Arabia. The hyper/super markets here are full of lobsters, crabs, squids, sharks which makes them HALAAL. & yes they ARE Halaal.

Well I haven't researched for your answer but you would know that Humans are ashraful mulakat. Not only man is capable of freewill but also has far superior brain power than any creations by Allah. Even though Jinns existed for a long time but they remained in disharmony and never progressed in technology. There may be some Quran verse supporting my argument as well but I'll leave it to you.
