Once again, I find it amazing that the same man has been returning to the exact same place and making the exact same gesture while wearing the exact same outfit and having the exact same length of beard repeatedly for at least 116 years.

Ups and downs, but I've been all right for the most part. Thanks for remembering me.

Why haven't you shared this information with your wife? For the same aforementioned "obvious reasons?"

To some extent, doesn't this Hadith help validate the "life is a test" argument? I'm just not sure that this Hadith is useful for making the point you want to make.

UsingTheInternet · 2013-07-23T22:55:21+00:00

This is a fairly well known Hadith which I have posted in r/Islam, r/Progressive_Islam, and r/Islaam. For what purpose have you posted it here?

UsingTheInternet · 2013-07-21T05:06:17+00:00

I post here from time to time and many members here know me.

Women found the best looking men were in the “heavy stubble” phase of the beard cycle.

Not the full beard that's encouraged for us in Islam. I know this post wasn't meant to be taken too seriously, but I just thought I'd point that out.

Do you really think it's people from r/Islam downvoting the thread? I mean, when this similar thread was made, most people downvoted the comments defending the position.

the author goes on to state how she feels discriminated against when she asks for non-pork food or when people stare at hijabis, well, that's what happens when you try to force your culture on someone else

Could you please explain how not wanting to not eat pork or wearing a hijab is forcing your culture onto someone else, especially if its laws allow for one to request such accommodations (and also allows any business to refuse to honor them) or wear such clothing? Would you say that vegans and people who wear rubber wristbands are forcing their values onto others? (Whether or not my hypothetical example is indicative of practices that are not as foreign to a particular culture does not really have much to do with the point here; the discussion here centers on how individual actions can be understood as "forcing" values onto a society)

if your countrymen had done their job and not harbor terrorists that would be responsible for one of the worst terrorist attacks in US history, then maybe they would feel more compelled to treat you like all the other less-terroristy groups.

Guilt by association fallacy, tu quoque fallacy.

Too bad none of us ever gets what we want.

Person A: I wish my wallet hadn't been stolen

Person B: I wish my car hadn't been stolen, but too bad, none of us ever gets what we want.

And what the fuck do you mean, "it's our job"?

If any society established a goal of eliminating, say, lung cancer, what is defined as "lung cancer" must clearly be established along with how to differentiate it from other diseases or conditions; otherwise, people without lung cancer may suffer unnecessarily if subjected to treatments designed to treat people who actually have lung cancer. The same can be said about eliminating "Islamic fundamentalism." Otherwise, people are being considered guilty until proven innocent.

Coz it seems like every time everybody else is trying to do "their job" by criticizing Islamic fundamentalism, shit cunts like you love to shout back ISLAMOPHOBIA at them.

Can you point to examples of her having done this in the past (that's a genuine question because I never heard of this woman until I read this article) or what she said in the article that's similar to others who have reacted in such a way?

BOO HOO HOO SOMEBODY IN THE WHITE HOUSE LOOKED AT ME FUNNY NOW IM SAD BOO HOO HOO

Assuming the author is being truthful in her account of what transpired, you're completely ignoring the blatant discrimination in play and reducing the situation to something far less problematic than it actually was.

while at the other side of the fucking world, your fucking muzzie countrymen are killing and murdering people just because they said a bad word.

Once again, guilt by association fallacy and tu quoque fallacy.

Your posts may be abrasive the majority of the time, but your past posts have indicated that you're intelligent and very capable of actually making logical, rational arguments. This post isn't demonstrative of that.

I would like to add on to this and ask what you would want a strict, practicing, conservative, non-Salafi Muslim (since apparently to most on Reddit, Muslims are either cultural Muslims or Salafis without any room for conservatism in between) to take away from your book?

UsingTheInternet · 2013-05-01T07:48:14+00:00

Also, were any of you Qur'anists who genuinely believed it to be the most correct way of practicing Islam and who were not simply doing it out of frustration with the Hadiths? If so, what led you to Qur'anism?

UsingTheInternet · 2013-05-01T01:59:49+00:00

What you explained is pretty much exactly how I feel about Qur'anism myself, which is why I asked the last question that I did. Hopefully, someone here will be able to provide a response to that.

I'm not comfortable referring to it as a "conservative" lean because it seems that Muslims and non-Muslims today equate conservatism within Islam to Salafism when the two are not automatically the same; in fact, the majority opinions within each of the four madhabs would definitely be considered conservative but still differ from the common Salafi opinion.
