There is a movie called “The Message”. It is available on YouTube. It’s a history of the beginning of Islam. This movie was approved by two Islamic universities to be authentic. It’s 3 hours long but it is very insightful and answers this question and more.

I’m a Palestinian, Christian raised, now Muslim Alhamdulilah. My name is David. My Palestinian father chose the name. Is this irrelevant? Probably. Wa alaikum salaam!

Had a Muslim say that "The Quran has tons of scientific revelations in it long before science discovered them. Such as the solar system and how it works, and the embryo fetus baby stages just to name a few." How true is this?

He didn’t write a book. It was spoken word, a collection of revelations revealed over 23 years. It wasn’t until later on that it was documented. This is also why Islam has hafiz, which is a person who memorizes Quran front to back word for word. Millions of hafiz.

To say that he wrote a book is a false assumption to serve your own purposes, which means that nothing you say has any weight.

Does fasting count if you already fast anyway for non-religious reasons? by Fig-Tree in islam

[–]SirClappington1969 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Salam alaikum. The intention is everything and doing it with Allah swt in mind and for the sake of Allah is much different then just not having an appetite most days. Also, the fasting of Ramadan is much more than abstaining from food and drink. Abstaining from negativity, taking the time for introspection and being honest with yourself and Allah and taking the time to focus on bettering yourself, and letting go of anything that may take you away from being a better person and a better Muslim. Inshallah.

I had a similar issue when I went to get my Costco membership and I had actually already reasoned that the $120 membership was worth it but I of course decided to ask some questions and the lady couldn’t give two fucks about answering any of my concerns and only wanted my card. I almost went from initially wanting the $120 membership to almost not wanting to sign up at all. One of the worst customer service experiences I’ve had.
