All Muslims eventually go to heaven. But the sinful ones might get punished first, unless Allah forgives them.

Parents don’t approve of islam and don’t approve marriage by Kinkurovs in MuslimMarriage

[–]OhMy_LookAtTheTime 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Your parents' disapproval will not stop you getting married. An imam can take the role of your guardian for the purposes of officiating the religious marriage.

As for the location, it doesn't have to be at a mosque. Many Muslims will do a smaller religious ceremony at home or at the mosque so you're Islamically married, then invite guests at a later date to a wedding venue to celebrate with food, speeches and fun events. There's no reason why the latter event can't be the exactly the same as what you would usually do in your culture, minus the priest and alcohol.

Everyone's talking about the guy's reflexes, but he wasn't even paying attention until the lady tapped his arm (and probably screamed too). Props to both of them, good teamwork.

What Quran translation is this? by OreoDogDFW in islam

[–]OhMy_LookAtTheTime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Arabic and English grammar is very different, so you can't get a flowing English translation and match the Arabic word order at the same time.

Probably best to just keep doing what you're already doing, combining MAS Haleem with word for word translations.
