[quote][size=2]As-Salaamu Alaikum Samsher Ali,

Thanks for your reply.

>> Quote: Brother, I earlier told again & again that I believe only Qur’an. I do not find or accept any source besides Qur’an as my religious source of Islam.

I know that you accept only what is stated in Quran. I was interested in knowing how do you accept the points, those I raised, in light of the Quran only; because I believe that those are not mentioned there. In this reply I have avoided all those points that you do not even consider essential to be done from your Islamic viewpoint.

>> Quote: MENTION GOD"S NAME on everything you are going to eat. See 5:4, & 6:118-119,

Your mentioned verses deal with the meat of the animals. I was actually asking about mentioning Allah’s name before eating or drinking anything. I do believe that you do pronounce Allah’s name before eating and also eat with your right hand, don’t you. That is what I do not see in Quran.

>> Quote: God Almighty knows many Muslims will be living in the middle of Christians and Jews and will be sharing their food and for this reason God told the Prophet Muhammed more than 1400 years ago, the following;

"Today, all good food is made lawful for you. The food of the people of the scripture (Jews & Christians) is LAWFUL (HALAL) for you......"5:5

I think there is another verse that you also mentioned before i.e. 6:118.

Therefore eat of that on which Allah's name has been mentioned if you are believers in His communications.  6:118

Do you believe that the Christian pronounce God’s name before slaughter? I do not think so. The animal should be slaughtered in the name of God only. I do not find any difference between the slaughter meat by Christians and dead meat now days.

>> Quote: Do Jews and Christian slaughter their animals as you mentioned above?

In present times Jews do. You must have known the word “kosher”. Yes I do believe that the Jews as well as Christian of prophet Muhammad ‘s [pbuh] time pronounce the name of God and also slaughter the animal as well. As I said it before otherwise there is no difference between the dead meat and the meat on which the God’s name is pronounced.

>> Quote: Takbeer e Tehreemah at the beginning of our prayers. Iqamah before the prayers.
Reply:- Could you please tell me what are these?

Takbeer e Tehreemah: It is a beginning of the prayers by raising both hands up to the shoulders or ears and uttering “Allah-o-Akbar”.

Iqaamah is the announcement of the commencement of a prayer behind Imam in a group.

I do believe that you do the same also; why?[/size=2]
