Why does listening to ‘Muftī sb’ make doubt my faith?? Here is a Sahih Hadith refuting his ‘Idol stone’ wherein Nabi صلي الله عليه وسلّم mentions it’s from jannah! الركن والمقام ياقوتتان من يواقيت الجنة، ولولا أن الله طمس نورهما لأضاءتا ما بين المشرق والمغرب The Hajar al-Aswad and al-Maqam (Ebrahim) are two jewels from the jewels of Paradise. Had Allah (ﷻ) not concealed their radiance, they would illuminate everything between the East and the West.” [Tirmidhi]

Because our faith was not built on independent truth, evidence or reason but rather what we were taught as children and the tradition we chose to study. If you were never born a muslim and were exposed to these opinions at the same time you wouldnt feel this way. Its important to realize that your not doubting Allah and his messenger but your doubting what scholars have taught you, none of these should make you doubt in 1 God and his last messenger. Sahih hadith is not what the prophet said but think of it like a historians judgment on how probable it was that the prophet said it. Sahih hadith can be wrong, alot of sahih hadith have been categorized as weak by some scholars, imam malik and imam abu hanifa would even admit a hadith is sahih but still not follow it. Im over simplifying, but learn about hadith criticism.

No, because he is a disease which is why his house got smashed in for spreading misinformation do not let rats like this doubt your faith or you will fall to the level of an atheist and Allah may never be with you once you reach that level. May Allah help you.

Not if, r maybe, r it might be pagan, NO it is Definitely 100% still paganism, not it was paganism... Logically use your common sense here folks, if ur religion was a Pagan religion in ancient time, than a new religion comes out of it, & took that same practice on kissing the Blackstone, & put into their religion still makes it Pagan💯... just cuz it's in your religion now does not make it less pagan, Muslims saying; well since we stole it from a Pagan religion it's not Pagan anymore, Nope it's still 💯 paganism... I couldn't imagine if it was the Christians who took a Blackstone from baal worship, & put it into Christianity we wouldn't hear the last of it from Muslims 24/7... Every time a Christian would turn around, there would be a Muslim saying, you guys are pagans cuz u guys stole a pagan stone, & worship that Stone from Baal, telling us were still pagans for doing so... U guys would make fun of us Christians 24/7, why because u would say hey Christians use ur logical sense here. u can't take a pagan practice, & put into a diff religion to make it new & less Pagan now. That means it's still a Pagan practice. So use that same logic, that goes for u to Muslims, it's a pagan practice 100% wake up... Muslims act like it's not a big deal, guys it's going to take your sins away, & it's going to grow eyes & mouth @ judgement day, & its going to represent you to cleanse ur sins from Allah. Hello it comes from Paganism, because that's what the other Pagans believe also about the stone, that it would take away their sins to. So it's still the same practice, & belief system 2day... Bc he's trying to compare this to Halloween🤦🏻‍♂️ when u guys are putting the same belief system inTo it... look it up pagans believed when they kiss this Stone it would take away their sins, so they can make it to the afterlife, fact check it. Bc u guys are still putting the same belief system into Islam 2day, therefore it's still the same thing... That's why the prophets friend said in a Hadith, that the stone, has no power nor can harm him, why bc he knew he's not going to put that same belief system into this old pagan stone, just as the pagans b4 him did... But you Muslims still do this 2day. Then have the nerve to say this is not paganism 🤦🏻‍♂️...

A piece of rock that's seen as just a relic vs Christians lying about being polytheists.

@@michealbadman6411 hello that's exactly my point, Muslims try to call Christians pagans, when the real pagans r Muslims. Muslims worship Muhammad, & kiss a black stone. Muslims cant say the shahada without Muhammed name in the prayer period. Muslims can not follow Allah unless they follow Muhammed 1st💯💯💯
