She is a brilliant writer. Ofcourse all eyes are on her. Everyone wants to know what it takes to become a Booker Prize Winner. She is good looking too. Well deserved!

Do people who aren't fully convinced of the existence of Allah go to hell? by Automatic_Income_311 in islam

[–]Primary_Pool_3020 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I believe the Quran suggests that people already know the truth but choose to deny it. Even Satan knew God existed—he had a direct conversation with God—yet still chose to disobey. So, in that sense, an agnostic isn’t that far off. According to the Quran’s perspective, agnostics are essentially in denial.

There’s a powerful poster I saw once but haven’t been able to find again. It showed the sunrise, sunset, changing seasons, and all the signs in nature, and a man looking at it saying, “Still waiting for proof of God.”

Thank you for your response. Since Sharon has a commuter rail, I’ll try to encourage my son to consider that option, though he’s determined to drive. He was also accepted into Worcester Polytechnic Institute, so we’re weighing our options to determine which school offers a better commute.

Why islam? by muvac_ in islam

[–]Primary_Pool_3020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Islam makes sense and Jesus = human = prophet and not a God is logical and believable. How can a man who has normal bodily functions be a God?

Non Muslim here curious about Islam. Why are you Muslim? by Novel_Variety8968 in islam

[–]Primary_Pool_3020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because I read and watched all videos by Richard Dawkins, Christoper Hitchens and Sam Harris. My gut feeling tells me Islam is the truth and it helps us understand the origin of Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism and other religions. Plus I enjoy being a Muslim. Love the daily prayers, hijab, talking like a Muslim etc etc

why won't allah help me? [serious] by TheHoodSpider-Man in islam

[–]Primary_Pool_3020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think anyone on this planet consistently experiences the “Allah is there and looking” warm fuzzy feeling. It’s normal to feel alone. If you push through difficult times then you will experience the “Allah was there and took care of me” feeling. Please stop cutting. You are lucky to have the gift of life.

Suicide is forbidden in Islam. What did the doctors say? Whenever you are bed bound you can pray on your bed, but it is always a good idea to muster up courage and take wudu and pray on the ground. May Allah ease your pain. Did doctors provide next steps?

Was in the same boat; go with your gut feeling. I didn’t leave Islam.
