  • Is it Haram/Not Allowed to read, understand follow Islam by the Holy Qur'an in a language other than Arabic?
    This is the debate that I have been involved in numerous times over the years. I have asked many Imams about this issue and the response is normally the same. The last response I had was that "you get 10 times the reward" for reading it in Arabic without any supporting evidence from Qur'an or authentic hadith. Some people will not even accept any religious debate about Islam when it is done in English, yet the same people will lear...

Born in 1944, Armstrong began her journey to faith as a Roman Catholic nun but left her order in 1969 when s...
  • Fighting Terrorism is what the Prophet Muhammad did and is the Duty of All Muslims
    Terrorism was rampant when the first official Muslims appeared when the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)began his prophethood and received divine relevation. Even though our Prophet is gone, we still have the most important gift from him, the Holy Qur'an which remains intact and universal to all Muslims since it was revealed. John Esposito sees Muhammad as a reformer who condemned practices of the pagan Arabs such as female infanticide, exploitat...
  • Qur'an Compels Muslim to Speak the truth even against family
    This is a very significant quote that compels Muslims to do justice and tell the truth even against a loved one. 4:135 (Y. Ali) O ye who believe! stand out firmly for justice, as witnesses to Allah, even as against yourselves, or your parents, or your kin, and whether it be (against) rich or poor: for Allah can best protect both. Follow not the lusts (of your hearts), lest ye swerve, and if ye distort (justice) or decline to do justice, verily Allah is well- acquainted with...
  • Dangers of Hadith Hadeeth
    Key points from the Qur'an to consider: 2:79 Then woe to those who write the Book with their own hands, and then say:"This is from Allah," to traffic with it for miserable price!- Woe to them for what their hands do write, and for the gain they make thereby.2:159 Those who conceal the clear (Signs) We have sent down, and the Guidan...
  • How Disgusting
    How Disgusting I have rarely been so upset at the comments I have read and as a muslim I have to vent my frustration about the ignorance of this person and also the media for only showing stories like this. An excerpt from http://www.cbc.ca/cp/world/050712/w0712126.html where a man in the Netherlands convicted of killing an outspoken critic of Islam gave his closing statements at his trial. He said: "What moved me to do what I did was purely my faith . . . I...
  • American Intolerance For Islam
    I went through an interesting experience on a forum that I enjoy reading through about my favorite car. This is the same day I read that Islamophobia is on the rise in America. (see http://www.cbc.ca/cp/world/050511/w051194.html) I went through a forum where someone survived a horrific crash and actually walked away. Eventually people mentioned god must have intervened and a few people disagreed but there was no real hostility. However, one person mentioned they ...
  • Talk of the Town
    It’s easy to gossip. Occasionally it’s harmless and unintentional, other times it’s aimed. A pattern of gossiping for the deliberate reason to humiliate person(s) has become habit in the Muslim community. So much; that it’s developed into reflex. This effortless chat is strictly forbidden because it arises suspicion of perhaps innocent individual(s) or distort truths with intentional (and unintentional) add on’s. As stated in (24:19 Yusif Ali) Those who love (to see) scandal published broa...

    Facts About Islam

    The Same Religion As Abraham, Moses, and Jesus

    Muslims believe that Islam started long before the Prophet Muhammad's time and was the same religion taught by the previous religions and Prophets.

    Qur'an 42:13 The same religion has He established for you as that which He enjoined on Noah - the which We have sent by inspiration to thee - and that which We enjoined on Abraham, Moses, and Jesus: Namely, that ye should remain steadfast in religion, and make no divisions therein: to those who worship other things than Allah, hard is the (way) to which thou callest them. Allah chooses to Himself those whom He pleases, and guides to Himself those who turn (to Him).
