[@YusufEstesIslam]

Salam (peace) & Allah Hadak (God guide you) Thank you Chuc for your question. You are almost right Deut. 18:16-18 is about Muhammad (not Jesus) God told Moses, peace be upon him, He would send someone from their BROTHEREN (Ishmael was Isaac's brother) Muhammad is a descendent of Ishmael) and he was like Moses (Jesus was NOT like Moses). Think about it - Normal birth, got married, had children, did miracles and DIED a normal death of old age. Does this apple to Jesus, peace be upon him or not?

[@AnglicanNew]

Muhammad denied being the descendant of Ishmael. (sira Halabiyah pg 36). You got this information from Ibn Ishaq who was trying to make that assertion. Ishmael got his blessing from God to be the father of many nations but it wasn't the divine promise to Abraham and Sarah to bring forth the savior of the world. As for Deut. 18:18 where in the history or Jewish commentary do you see Jews looking to Arabs for completion of this promise BEFORE MUHAMMAD WAS BORN? No one standing at Mt. Sinai that day or in the 2600 years to your prophets birth were ever looking for an Ishmaelite to lead them when they WERE around. 'From their brethren' could only mean the Jews, the descendants of Issac. Besides that, the Ishmaelites, the actual descendants of Ishmael, DIE OUT in the 7th century BCE.

Love is not lust.

[@Steven_Rowe]

I think I missed something here, Yisaf spoke before about how is wife was a christian and wanted a divorce because she wanted to become muslim. My understanding is they both reverted. I dont know how old he was at the time. So has he remarried,

[@ahmad7171]

You be right, but I am not sure as he mentioned the same way as you stated but he did not completed the story. Now he may have divorced his earlier wife or she die as he mentioned his wife was suffering from Cancer. Allah Knows better. I am just guessing . Later on he married his second wife which make sense

[@dinaaa107]

I can do whatever I want whenever I want. I'm not a baby and am capable of making my own decisions. If that's to leave Islam, then my parents will understand, and I know that for a fact. Yes, others may not be happy with it, but isn't that for any convert of any religion; some are accepting, some aren't. I used to doubt and question Islam, but now I'm a true believer. I would never leave it b/c you don't understand how much I love it. Even if I don't wear the scarf or adhere too some principles.

[@bukharimuslim9870]

The most striking thing about his statement, however, was that it was not an apology; it was a logical, proud justification for preserving the death penalty as a punishment for apostasy. Al-Qaradawi sounded matter-of-fact, indicating no moral conflict, nor even hesitation, about this policy in Islam. On the contrary, he asserted the legitimacy of Islamic laws in relying on vigilante street justice through fear, intimidation, torture & murder against any person who might dare to leave Islam.

[@bukharimuslim9870]

This is the verdict of Ibn Timiyya who was joined by some great Legists such as the Shafii, Malek, Ibn Hanbal, and the professors of Islamic law at the inception of Islam in Mecca and Medina. Most Arabs and most Islamic countries embrace their teaching. Actually, if we study Malek Ibn Ons book (Vol. 2, p. 155), we read, "A father can force his virgin daughter, his maid-slave and his male-slave to get married."

[@mohammadissa8061]

Islam permits divorce because it ordains laws that take human nature into consideration and divorce is sometimes the only solution to serious problems of marital discord.However, Islam does not permit divorce without enforcing definite terms which ensure safeguarding the rights of both the husband and wife and guarantee the execution of their obligations and duties in a just and fair manner.The bond of marriage in Islam is a sacred bond which is venerated and solemnly respected.

Good to hear brother, glad you think this way. I can assure you it only speaks of the Restricted Temple, and it speaks of the polytheists, if Jews and Christians were meant, it would say Jews and Christians. In the Quran Christians are called nearest in faith of the Muslims, like bretheren.

PART 5 The 2nd evidence. “Allah's Apostle said that he met Zaid bin 'Amr Nufail at a place near Baldah. Allah's Apostle presented a dish of meat (that was given to him by the pagans) to Zaid bin 'Amr, but Zaid refused to eat it and then said, 'I do not eat of what you slaughter on your stone altars (Ansabs) nor do I eat except that on which Allah's Name has been mentioned on slaughtering.' (Sahih al-Bukhari 7:407)” Muhammad ate food sacrificed to idols that Zaid refused to Eat.

@Thawadiya2011 what does that mean?

[@bukharimuslim9870]

FORCED MARRIAGE Muslims regard Ibn Timiyya as the Sheikh of Islam. He truly is. He is the author of great many huge volumes on various subjects. If we open Vol. 32, pp. 29 and 30, we read, "Even if the virgin is an adult, her father may force her to get married. This is in accordance with Malek Ibn Ons, al-Shafi and Ibn Hanbal’s." On page 39, he also states: "The young virgin can be forced by her father to get married without being consulted."

Head of the Muslim Brotherhood Yusuf al-Qaradawi stated: If they had gotten rid of the apostasy punishment, Islam wouldn't exist today. Islam would have ended since the death of the prophet, peace be upon him. Opposing apostasy is what kept Islam to this day. Surah 5:33 says: "The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His apostle is that he should be murdered or crucified."According to Abi Kulaba's narration this verse means the apostates.

[@bukharimuslim9870]

What is Ibn Hazm’s opinion concerning the daughter’s marriage? How can we ignore the opinion of the chief Legists of Islam in this respect? It is well known that Ibn Hazm also composed huge volumes of books on various topics on which all contemporary Muslim scholars rely because he is one of the greatest scholars of the Islamic law through the ages. In his sixth volume, part 9 of his book al-Muhalla ("The Sweetened", pp. 458-460), he says,

[@yeshuasage3724]

no one is obliged to change their name if they become muslims, unless the name carries a negative connotation/meaning. all of the desiples of the prophet [pbuh] kept their pre islamic names, apart from a few. there was a man named Harb who became a muslim, harb means "war lord" and the prophet [pbuh] asked him to change his name to Salm/salama, meaning peace and tranquility. if your name is john or amy or ryan or any other commonly used name in your culture, you don't have to change it at all.

[@X152535]

But I thought his wife had converted to Islam and told him to convert or move out. Is this another marriage?

[@blmacdo]

You're right. It musn't be a grievous beating and if it's with a stick it must be shorter than a toothbrush and some scholars say it can only be with a hankerchief. But even if it isn't a physically severe beating it's still humiliating and it's unfair; the man is entitled to beat his wife if he even suspects disobedience. So, the man doesn't need proof and the woman must be obedient. And I've read the Koran, don't worry.

[@bukharimuslim9870]

Q Does Islam permit a man to hit his wife? A Yes, but only if she doesn't do as he asks. The beating must cease if the woman complies with her husband's demands. Beating is also intended to be the last resort of coercing submission, behind verbal abuse and abandonment. According her testimony in the Hadith, Muhammad, physically struck his favorite wife for leaving the house without his permission. It is not known how he treated his less-favored wives.

[@halith25070]

In Rig Veda therre are references to slave girls being given in charity as gifts. After killing the menfolk of other tribes,particularly of the native inhabitants, their women were rounded up and used as slave girls.It was custom to present slave girls to one other as gifts.The kings used to present chariots full of slave girls to their kith and kin and priests (Rig Veda 6/27/8)King Trasdasyu had given 50 slave girls.It was custom to present slave girls to Saubhri Kandav(Rig Veda 8/38,5/47/6).

Wife Beating- Good Enough for Muhammad, Good Enough for You Others are not nearly as squeamish. Sheikh Yousef al-Qaradhawi, one of the most respected Muslim clerics in the world, once made the famous (and somewhat ridiculous statement) that "It is forbidden to beat the woman, unless it is necessary." He also went on to say that "one may beat only to safeguard Islamic behavior," leaving no doubt that wife-beating is a matter of religious sanction.

Muhammad PBUH said "Divorce is the most detested permissible legitimate act in the eyes of God".

Then Ibn Hazm adds: "Even if she was deflowered (previously married and divorced, or a widow) as long as she is young and has not reached the legal age, her father may force her to marry without obtaining her permission."

[@muhsinalhameed6408]

I am not sure whether Ibn Hazm Said that or not but any way we as Muslims do not follow Ibn Hazm nor other scholars .. We follow Quran which makes the approval of the girl an essential for legal marriage. If she doesn't agree then the marriage is invalid regardless her age. And by the way there are many fake stories about the age of the wife of the prophet when she got married from the prophet. But according to historical proofs and calculations she was either 20 or 21 or 22 years old.
