[quote][size=2]Samsher, [blue]>>>>Sir/madam, I request to you please leave the forum.[/blue] You failed to answer my questions and that proves that you are not in Truth.I wonder how you are still keep discussing the matter when u couldn't even answer my questions and yet you ask me to leave the forum.how strange it is??. Let me explain the verses which you misinterpreted.Although,I don't expect you to accept my explanations,yet for the sake of clearing any misunderstandings for others,I feel that I should include the explanation in this forum. [blue]"We did not leave anything out of this book.” 6:38[/blue] The complete verse is: "There is not an animal in the earth, nor a flying creature flying on two wings, but they are peoples like unto you. We have neglected nothing in the Book ."[6:38] You should know that the verses of Quran should not be interpreted without considering the context. The word "Al-Kitaab", which is used in the Quran, does not necessarily refer to Quran alone.The word has been used in many different connotations in the Quran.It may mean Law[as in 62:2],Letter[as in 27: 28],Record[as in 10:61,6:59 ] etc.In the above verse, "Al-Kitaab" means "Record".The above verse says that all the details of creations are known to God and everything is in clear record with the God.The verse is similiar to 10:61.That is the meaning of the verse.The above verse does not mean that Quran contains every details about the creations.It will be foolish to interpret that way. [blue]”Shall I seek other than God as a source of law, when He has revealed to you this book fully detailed?” 6:114[/blue] You should first understand that it is upon Mohammed[pbuh] unto whom God revealed the Quran and all the religious directives of Islam.People believed in the message because of his truthfulness and his message.Hence belief in the Prophethood of Mohammed is more basic than the belief in the Quran as the word of God.How can one believe Quran to be the word of God,when one is not convinced about the Prophethood of Mohammed.The true believers will believe whatever he informed as a religion from God.The "Sunnah", which was revealed to Mohammed[pbuh] was not a production of him.It is infact a revelation from God.Therefore, following Sunnah is not seeking source of law other from God, since Sunnah itself is a source of law from God. [blue]"Perfected is the Word of thy Lord in truth and justice. There is naught that can change His words. He is the Hearer, the Knower.” [6:115][/blue] I don't know how you concluded from the above verse, that only the Quran is the religious source given by Mohammed[pbuh].The above verse says that the law,the scripture,the decrees etc. of God is true and is full of justice.It also says that there is none who can change His words[i.e., His legislations,His decress,His justice etc.]. [blue]”This is not fabricated ‘hadith’; this (Quran) confirms all previous scriptures, provides the details of everything, and is a guidance and mercy for those who believe.” 12:111 ”We have revealed to you this book to provide explanations for everything, and guidance and mercy and good news for the submitters.” 16:89 6:155-157 “This (Quran) too is a blessed scripture that we have revealed; you shall follow it and lead a righteous life, that you may attain mercy. Now you can no longer say, "The scripture was sent down to two groups before us (Jews and Christians), and we were unaware of their teachings." Nor can you say, "If only a scripture could come down to us, we would be better guided than they. " NOW THERE HAS COME TO YOU A ‘BAYENAH’ (CLEAR PROOF) from your Lord and a beacon, and a mercy. Now, who is more evil than one who rejects these proofs from God, and disregards them? We will commit those who disregard our proofs to the worst retribution for their heedlessness.”[/blue] Yes,it is true that theQuran contains explanations for everything.As you would agree,"everything" in the verse mean that the Quran contains 'everything' that is needed for our guidance, and ultimately for our success in the hereafter.It is the Quran which orders us to obey the Prophet Mohammed[pbuh].See the following verses:- “Say: If ye do love Allah, follow me: Allah will love you and forgive you your sins” [3: 31] “O ye who believe, obey Allah, and obey the Messenger, and those charged with authority among you. If ye differ in anything among yourselves, refer it to Allah and His Messenger, if ye do believe in Allah and the Last Day; that is best and most suitable for final determination” [4: 59] Let those beware who go disobey the Messenger’s order, lest some trial befall them, or a grievous chastisement be inflicted on them.” [4: 64] ...... nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth. [9:29] He it is Who hath sent His messenger with the guidance and the Religion of Truth,.... [9:33] All the above verses shows that the Prophet(pbuh) was given authority by God in the matters of Religion.It was he who delivered Quran and the Sunnah,both of which is a revelation from God.Hence obeying the Prophet[pbuh] is in fact a commandment of the Quran and disobeying the Prophet[pbuh] is against the commandment of the Quran ,and neglecting part of his teachings[i.e., the 'Sunnah'] is infact 'Kufr' [disbelief] that moves a person out of Islam. Oh! you nicely dropped the "40" issue.That proves that Rashad Khalifah was a liar and his followers are not in Truth,but in Falsehood. Thanks.[/size=2] Edited by: ibrahim on Wednesday, November 16, 2005 8:24 AM[/quote]
