[quote]salaam tilawat,

it seems your another to misunderstand.

I do not agree with the possibility to have slaves, male or female, qur'anically.

Regarding hoor, I see them as companions to which we will be married in Jannah.

please note...  i can't believe I have to say this again... PLEEEAAAASSEEE NOTE!!!!!!!!!!

I distinguish between the philosophy of materialism and the ownership of material objects.

So owning a car does not make a philosophical materialist.

Being a Muslim and desiring most of all the acquisition of material things in dunya makes you materialistic (as in acting LIKE you are a philosophical materialist), makes you misguided and possibly a mushrik.

Being a hedonist means that one worships his or her own desires.  Such a person seeks for the things that please them apart from morality, revelation or anything else.  Such people are generally materialists.

But just wanting or getting something that one may like does not make one a hedonist.  If you don't know why the distinction exists, I don't feel like teaching you.

please think before asking anymore.

salaam
