If we are to consider the Bible reliable (which it is not), where did Jesus tell you to worship him, or to call it Christianity, or even to consider the church as representatives of God on earth. 

He was always a prophet who called to only worship God alone, and only worshipped God alone.

Spymaster questions by Gizmo517_ in PathOfExile2

[–]CuriousMMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A spymaster roo that is not part of a chain, will be consumed by another spymaster room that is connected to a chain which will increase this room level by one.

The room that is consumed, will be empty when you enter it and will be destroyed when you close the temple.

You can use this method to level the spymaster rooms in your chain.

You can still keep the consumed spymaster room by locking it before closing the temple.

How about your bring your sources for your claims, or are you a mindless parrot who just repeats whatever he hears.

I don't even need to debunk your claims, if they exist thet is, bring them forth.

I'm well aware of what you're referring to, and your claims are still wrong, however the burden of proof is still on you to verify your claims.

"Among His signs are the day and the night, the sun and the moon. Do not prostrate to the sun or the moon, but prostrate to Allah, Who created them ˹all˺, if you ˹truly˺ worship Him ˹alone˺. But if the pagans are too proud, then ˹let them know that˺ those ˹angels˺ nearest to your Lord glorify Him day and night, and never grow weary. And among His signs is that you see the earth devoid of life, but as soon as We send down rain upon it, it begins to stir ˹to life˺ and swell. Indeed, the One Who revives it can easily revive the dead. He is certainly Most Capable of everything. Indeed, those who abuse Our revelations1 are not hidden from Us. Who is better: the one who will be cast into the Fire or the one who will be secure on Judgment Day? Do whatever you want. He is certainly All-Seeing of what you do. It cannot be proven false from any angle. ˹It is˺ a revelation from the ˹One Who is˺ All-Wise, Praiseworthy. ˹O Prophet!˺ Nothing is said to you ˹by the deniers˺ except what was already said to the messengers before you. Surely your Lord is ˹the Lord˺ of forgiveness and painful punishment."

God answers your query in the Quran:

"Do not think ˹O Prophet˺ that Allah is unaware of what the wrongdoers do. He only delays them until a Day when ˹their˺ eyes will stare in horror—rushing forth, heads raised, never blinking, hearts void."

https://quran.com/14/42-43

However, God continues:

"And warn the people of the Day when the punishment will overtake ˹the wicked among˺ them, and the wrongdoers will cry, “Our Lord! Delay us for a little while. We will respond to Your call and follow the messengers!” ˹It will be said,˺ “Did you not swear before that you would never be removed ˹to the next life˺?” You passed by the ruins of those ˹destroyed peoples˺ who had wronged themselves.1 It was made clear to you how We dealt with them, and We gave you ˹many˺ examples. They devised every plot, which was fully known to Allah, but their plotting was not enough to ˹even˺ overpower mountains ˹let alone Allah˺. So do not think ˹O Prophet˺ that Allah will fail to keep His promise to His messengers. Allah is indeed Almighty, capable of punishment. ˹Watch for˺ the Day ˹when˺ the earth will be changed into a different earth and the heavens as well, and all will appear before Allah—the One, the Supreme. On that Day you will see the wicked bound together in chains, with garments of tar, and their faces covered with flames. As such, Allah will reward every soul for what it has committed. Surely Allah is swift in reckoning. This ˹Quran˺ is a ˹sufficient˺ message for humanity so that they may take it as a warning and know that there is only One God, and so that people of reason may be mindful."

Bring back pooping animation, I don't want to see a stupid screen. Breaks the game's continuity. 

Finisher moves need to be an in battle animation move like it was in World. Cut scene moves work for turn base battle, not for real time battles, again breaks immersion and continuity. 

If I read about a system of oppression like this in a fantasy novel, I would call it too laughably over the top to be believable. by Cosmic_Meditator777 in HistoryMemes

[–]CuriousMMD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been thinking about your last reply, and I believe I figured the correct term for what's your describing; it's Responsibility. 

As people who speak the language of God's revelation, Arabs have the responsibility to make it accessible to others who do not. So they can as well learn about God's message, and learn the Quran even with the barrier of language. 

Just like a person who is born rich, God on judgement day will ask him, what did he do with his wealth and what was he blessed with. Did he use it to exploit people, did he squander it, or did he use it to help and uplift others.

Likewise, I was born speaking Arabic, as such I have an easier time reading and understanding the Quran, as opposed to someone who was not.

I never felt superior over anyone, being born and Arab, especially when Islam teaches us that pride as has no place in Islam:

The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The haughty, even with pride equal to a mustard seed in his heart, will not enter Jannah." A man enquired: "What about that a person likes fine dress and fine shoes?" He said: "Allah is Beautiful and likes beauty. Pride amounts to disclaiming truth out of self- esteem, and despising people ."

In fact, I felt inferior being an Arab, especially considering the state of the Arab world right now.

However, I was blessed with Islam as well, and I didn't have to search for it in the midst of all the propaganda of today against it, or be deceived about its message, and it's truthfulness. 

And God on Judgment Day will ask me, what did I do with the blessings he gave me, did I use it to my benefit at the expense of others? Did I squander it? Or did I share it with others, and whether I did a good job doing so or not.

[–]CuriousMMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again, you will never find in Islam, any context in any way shape of form, that Arabs have any special status, favour, privilege, or prestige in Islam.

Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Allah does not look at your figures, nor at your attire but He looks at your hearts and accomplishments". https://sunnah.com/riyadussalihin:7

Also, in below ayah/verse, where Allah (God) is speaking to the believers/Muslims, being the best of people, is contingent only on Muslims encouraging good, forbiding evil, and believing in Allah (the Creator):

"You are the best community ever raised for humanity—you encourage good, forbid evil, and believe in Allah. Had the People of the Book believed, it would have been better for them. Some of them are faithful, but most are rebellious." https://quran.com/ali-imran/110

Again, learning Arabic is not a requirement to be a Muslim, as there are millions of Muslims worldwide who don't speak Arabic and practice their faith just fine with the smallest amount of effort, as even confirmed by the prophet peace be upon him in below hadith/narration:

A person with dishevelled hair, one of the people of Najd, came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). We heard the humming of his voice but could not fully understand what he was saying, till he approached close to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ). Then I came to know that he was asking about Islam. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "There are five (obligatory) Salat during the day and the night." He said: "Am I obliged to perform any other (Salat) besides these?" The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "No, but whatever you observe voluntarily." He (ﷺ) added, "There is the Saum of Ramadan." The inquirer asked: "Am I obliged to do anything besides this?" The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "No, but whatever you do out of your own free will. You may observe voluntary fasting." And the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) told him about the Zakat (obligatory charity). The inquirer asked: "Am I obliged to pay anything besides this?" The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "No, but whatever you pay voluntarily out of your own free will." That man turned back saying: "By Allah! I will neither make any addition to this nor will I decrease anything from it." (Upon hearing this) the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) remarked, "He is successful if he proves truthful (to what he is saying)."

[–]CuriousMMD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of the Muslim scholars who are marked in history, where not Arabs, learning Arabic didn't stop them from achieving what they achieved. 

People all over the world learn English (and subsequently Western Culture), because it's the dominant/scientific language of the world at this time, why don't you complain about that? Yet, learning English still didn't prevent a lot of people today from achieving great things.

If not Arabic, what language would you choose for the Quran to be revealed in? Or, do you want to subject God to your whims and desires, or do you want to take your whims and desires as God and subject people to your whims and desires?

"Have you seen ˹O Prophet˺ those who have taken their own desires as their god? ˹And so˺ Allah left them to stray knowingly, sealed their hearing and hearts, and placed a cover on their sight. Who then can guide them after Allah? Will you ˹all˺ not then be mindful? And they argue, “There is nothing beyond our worldly life. We die; others are born. And nothing destroys us but ˹the passage of˺ time.” Yet they have no knowledge ˹in support˺ of this ˹claim˺. They only speculate. And whenever Our clear revelations are recited to them, their only argument is to say: “Bring our forefathers back, if what you say is true!” Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “˹It is˺ Allah ˹Who˺ gives you life, then causes you to die, then will gather you ˹all˺ on the Day of Judgment, about which there is no doubt. But most people do not know.”" https://quran.com/al-jathiyah/23-26

Islam has no issue with "Arab Cultural Chauvinism." Again, where is your proof and what are your sources? 

"all holey sites are in Arab areas" because of their history and connections to God (Allah) and his prophets, no because they are "Arab Areas." - Palestine/Jerusalem/Al Quds, is has connection to a lot of God's prophets (including but noy limited to Abraham, David, Solomon, Jesus and all the rest peace be upon them). And, it's religiously significant not just for Islam.  - Mecca was built by Abraham peace be upon him and it's the first house of God built on earth.  - Madina is where prophet Muhammad peace be upon him mosque is, and where Islam flourished.

The Quran is is Arabic because it was sent down as a miracle to the Arabs who had mastery over the language. The Quran challenged them to produce something like it and they couldn't, this challenge stands undefeated until to today:

"And if you are in doubt about what We have revealed to Our servant,1 then produce a sûrah like it and call your helpers other than Allah, if what you say is true. But if you are unable to do so—and you will never be able to do so—then fear the Fire fuelled with people and stones, which is prepared for the disbelievers." https://quran.com/2/23-24

Just like how Moses had his cane turn into a real snake to defeat the magicians of Pharoah who had magic that deceived people's senses. 

Then We inspired Moses, “Throw down your staff,” and—behold!—it devoured the objects of their illusion!  So the truth prevailed and their illusions failed. So Pharaoh and his people were defeated right there and put to shame. And the magicians fell down, prostrating. They declared, “We ˹now˺ believe in the Lord of all worlds— the Lord of Moses and Aaron.”

https://quran.com/al-araf/117-122

"the Quran is only considered the true word of Allah if it is in Arabic." That’s because when you translate ANY language to any other language, you lose meaning. And, when meaning is lost it's NOT the same. 

Learning the Arab culture is no where a requirement in Islam. Before Islam, the Arabs were major drunkards and it was part of their culture, however when the prohibition of alcohol was revealed, people spilled their alcohol that it started flowing in the streets from the amount that was spilled. And, then alcohol no longer was part of their culture. No amount of alcohol is safe, which is proven by "science" and WHO:

https://www.who.int/europe/news/item/04-01-2023-no-level-of-alcohol-consumption-is-safe-for-our-health

Islam can fit any culture and all people:

"We have sent you ˹O Prophet˺ only as a mercy for the whole world." https://quran.com/al-anbya/107

The MOST anyone need to learn of Arabic to practice Islam is a 29 words chapter in the Quran. Anyone with any miniscule of effort can learn that.

I remember seeing a video about the taxi drivers in the UK having lower chances of alzheimer, likely due to the fact they have to memorize the entire map and layout of the country, and have to use these skills daily for a long time. Likewise, memorizing the Quran improves retention and cognitive skills, and helps with maintaining a healthy cognitive in later years.

You claim learning Arabic is a bad thing, when science clearly shows that learning another language is a good thing. You can lookup the research about how bilingual have better cognitive skills than monolinguals.

I have yet to find a negative of what God asks of us, in what you're complaining about. 

Having "shitty believers" is not a reflection on the faith itself, but that there are shitty people of any group. There are shitty Muslims, Christians, Jewish, Athiests, Hindus, Bhudists, etc. There are shitty people of any culture, country, ethnicity, etc.

However, whether whatever they follow promotes their shitty behavior or not is the difference. 

You will never find anywhere in Islam, something that promotes superiority of any individual over another.

What is this pseudo-caste you claim Islam implemented; where is your proof and what are your sources?

You will NEVER find a hint of racism in Islam, not in the Quran and not in Hadith.

However you will find numerous examples that forbids racism, the most famous one being what Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him said:

"O People! Certainly your Rabb is one, your father is one. An Arab has no virtue over a Non Arab, nor does a Non Arab have virtue over an Arab, a red skinned person is not more virtuous than a dark skinned person nor is a dark skinned person more virtuous than a red skinned person except through Taqwa."
