What does Isl�m mean to you?

[Pazuzu bin Hanbi]

Hello there folks. When I used to follow Isl�m, I always wanted to know people’s reasons why they turned to this religion, and what made them strong in their faith, what experiences they had. I admired, about the Christian community, their dedication to a living, breathing connection to their saviour.

In Isl�m, I mostly read boring, dry, legalistic, copy & paste type texts which would bang on at length about the necessities of praying, fasting, and suchlike. To which I would reply: “I know. It’s in the qur’�n.� I wanted more personal details, such as when my father told me he turned to the qur’�n for solace and comfort after his father died, and grew more and more religious.

So, I ask you: what does Isl�m mean to you? Personally?

I would also like to ask this of any non–muslims reading this as well: you may hear about muslims in the news, know a few people who have turned to Isl�m and whatnot, but what does it mean to YOU?

...Take a look at the "Religion" section of your local paper, commonly published on Saturday. If you live in or near a town of any size, there's probably a mosque or Islamic study center around; they often hold "open houses" or similar events, and though they are rightly concerned with security these days, they are generally open and welcoming to those who wish to learn more about their religion, even those with no intention of converting. There are also, and frequently, interfaith conferences or discussions open to the public, where clergy and laypeople of various faiths can interact and have dialogue. Those can take place anywhere - churches, synagogues (mine sponsors such events frequently), even schools.

The problem with these is that they are generally geared for the general public, which usually will not satisfy everyone. Interfaith conferences and discussions generally do not allow sufficient interaction (and often are dominated by a few people at the expense of more evenly distributed participation).

Here's a good option for those who have the time and the money: Clarement Theological School's University Project:

...a consortium that clusters several collaborating graduate schools and centers around a religiously focused University. Our partners will likewise train religious leaders in their respective traditions (Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, etc.).

All that's true, but it's a start, and certainly a place to initiate personal contact with people interested in dialogue. Follow up as you wish.

That sounds good, too, but might be geared a bit more in the opposite direction -- i.e., to academics and those who want to get REALLY deep into the issues. For ordinary folks who are just interested in casual dialogue, it might be a good start to go to an interfaith conference and meet an actual Muslim clergyman, then find time to interact on a one-to-one basis.

The word "Islam" is an Arabic word that means "submitting and surrendering your will to Almighty God".

This label is a misnomer and is the result of either willful distortion or sheer ignorance. This label is a misnomer, either as a result of deliberate distortion or sheer ignorance.

All of these misconceptions lead to worship the creature rather than the Creator, which contributed to the exercise of belief, pagan not god approaching through intermediaries.. In order to guard against these falsehoods, the Prophet Muhammad and asserted that he was human always being assigned only with the preaching of the message God.. the lesson that Muslims refer to him as "a messenger of God and his nation." ".

, That Muhammad was sent as a mercy to all mankind. Numbered only a few dozen of his followers, and God Almighty when he learned of it so that Muhammad was sent as a mercy to all mankind.

Hello there folks. When I used to follow Isl�m, I always wanted to know people’s reasons why they turned to this religion, and what made them strong in their faith, what experiences they had. I admired, about the Christian community, their dedication to a living, breathing connection to their saviour.

In Isl�m, I mostly read boring, dry, legalistic, copy & paste type texts which would bang on at length about the necessities of praying, fasting, and suchlike. To which I would reply: “I know. It’s in the qur’�n.� I wanted more personal details, such as when my father told me he turned to the qur’�n for solace and comfort after his father died, and grew more and more religious.

So, I ask you: what does Isl�m mean to you? Personally?

I would also like to ask this of any non–muslims reading this as well: you may hear about muslims in the news, know a few people who have turned to Isl�m and whatnot, but what does it mean to YOU?

Islam is the most evil of things to have ever been created. It is the cause (like any sin) of chaos. It is an abomination and perversion of God.

What makes Islam an abomination and perversion before god?

[Murad]

Islam is the most evil of things to have ever been created. It is the cause (like any sin) of chaos. It is an abomination and perversion of God.

I think ignorance & lack of knowledge is more of an abomination and a perversion of God.

I would agree with that -- especially when ignorance is combined with hatred and the promotion of hatred.

I would agree with that -- especially when ignorance is combined with hatred and the promotion of hatred.

I agree with this too, and note that several mainstream schools of Islam (that is to say, the Sunni, Wahabi and Shia theologies, among others) promote a particularly vicious sort of hatred, the sort of hatred that can make people support all sorts of sordid deeds including killing others for thought crimes or pelting human beings with stones until they die a horrible death, for example.

Large segments of the Muslim population have been shown to support such things because of their religious beliefs in the religion of Islam. These deeds are among the most hateful ones human beings could ever possibly do to each other.

If there is a personal creator God, I daresay he's probably not too impressed with what his creation is doing "in his name".
