[quote]Dear Khan,

Quote:- as for the studying islam itself, it proclaims the message that the sources of deen e islam are qur'an and sunnah; the latter being the practices of the prophets starting from adam pbuh upto the last prophet muhammad pbuh and upon all of them; as cleansed by ibrahim and the last prophet.

[b]MY REPLY :- I think you either did not understand my opinion based on only Qur’an, which I sent to you on February 08,2007(Thursday), or you have intentionally avoided it by knowing. Whatever may be, I am once again reproducing my previous opinion(supported with only Qur’an) for your consideration and for others;[/b]

[red][22:67] For each congregation, we have decreed a set of rites that they must uphold. Therefore, they should not dispute with you. You shall continue to invite everyone to your Lord. Most assuredly, you are on the right path.[/red]

[blue]This ayat in fact confirms that we the receivers of the Qur’an are to follow the rites and rules given to us in the Qur’an and not what was given to those before us….[/blue]God tells us clearly here that [b]EVERY PEOPLE(CONGREGATION) WERE GIVEN THEIR WON SET OF RITES……[/b][blue]as a result to say that we follow the identical rites that were given to Ibraheem and that were passed down to us in contradiction to this ayat….[/blue]

Now we come to a very significant pharase in the above ayat………. Lets look at the pharase [b]“THEREFORE, THEY SHOULD NOT DISPUTE WITH YOU.”….WHAT DOES GOD MEAN BY THIS PHARASE?[/b]

[u]Well, let us first try to imagine why those of previous congregation/scripture would dispute with Muhammad?[/u] After all [b]the scripture that is given to Muhammad(Quran) advocates the same one God that those people believe in, so why should they dispute with him?[/b]

[u]It is obvious that they will dispute with him because according to the Qur’an which Muhammad follows, he is following different rites and rules than what they are following……….for that they are not happy and they dispute with him……….this once again indicates that what Muhammad was given was different from what was practiced at his time, otherwise they would not dispute with him……[/u][b]WHAT THIS ALSO PROVES IS THAT TO SAY THAT GOD COMMANDED MUHAMMAD TO FOLLOW THE IDENTICAL PRACTICES OF ABRAHAM WHICH IT IS CLAIMED THAT WERE KNOWN AND PRACTICED AT THE TIME, THIS IS A TOTALLY FALSE STATEMENT.[/b] [blue]If Muhammad was to follow what was known and practiced at the time(and which some say was preserved from the time of Abraham…..) then why  the people of the previous scriptures would dispute with him?[/blue] [b]WOULD THEY DISPUTE WITH HIM IF HE WAS FOLLOWING WHAT WAS KNOWN AND PRACTICED AT THE TIME??? The only reason that they will dispute with him is that what he was given(Qur’an) brought new and different rites and rules to what they were given ….this is confirmed with the words;[/b]

[red]“For each congregation, we have decreed a set of rites that they must uphold”. [/red]

[red][5:48]   Then we revealed to you this scripture, truthfully, confirming previous scriptures, and superseding them. You shall rule among them in accordance with GOD's revelations, and do not follow their wishes if they differ from the truth that came to you. For each of you, we have decreed laws and different rites. Had GOD willed, He could have made you one congregation. But He thus puts you to the test through the revelations He has given each of you. You shall compete in righteousness. To GOD is your final destiny - all of you - then He will inform you of everything you had disputed.[/red]
