Prove Islam To Me. I'll Be As Open Minded As Possible

[sigmund]

Wait. Are you saying that I'm expected to follow a faith that I won't definitively know is true, until I die, with just faith alone?

no I didn't imply that what I meant to say was that a lot of people would believe but there will be some people who won't believe but would acknowledge his existence

 

[YourBroMoe]

Guys i think y'all are under matched with the cunningness & cleverness of Yourbromoe. I doubt if he really wants to be any thing other than a Deist agnostic.

You can believe me or not, but I'm genuinely being open minded to this.

OOOOH. Yeah, if I personally saw God, I'd believe. You'd have to be insane not to.

Your comment reminded me of this shortstory

I read it, weird but thought provoking.

Fair enough. Life does involve going in blind to things from time to time. I guess that's what the "test" element means in Islam.

I have a question for you now--do you believe in space?

 

[halwa]

What do you want to be proved? Any specific requests?

I was about to be pedantic, but I'll be blunt with you homie. Yes I believe in space.

Good question, I should of given parameters. I guess what I'm seeking are the perspectives of others that believe, so I can understand their faith in their mind. That would give me the chance to see if there's something I'm not seeing.

I don’t think l any of us are sheikhs or sheikhaads, have you tried speaking with one?

 

[AIOPZ]

Why is it easier for you to believe that there are hundreds of thousands of millions of galaxies hosted in a hugely vast immeasurable space that we refer to as "the universe" but when it comes to the infinite afterlife here on earth, you hesitate?

 

[sigmund]

OOOOH. Yeah, if I personally saw God, I'd believe. You'd have to be insane not to.

As you said you would believe in God if you seen him so why not believe in God without having to see him? woudnt the precise calculation and creation of this universe be enough to point out evidence of a power?

It starts with the Quraan, do you believe it to be real.

For the sake of arguement i will respond to your major hiccups in God.

a) How can God be just & merciful if he will punish severely?


Answer. If u r judging Gods mercy by virtue of giving Harsh punishment, then u r missing the ball mark.


First of all, we are not in Yomul Qiyama where the day of judgement, God will judge. We dont know who will be forgiven, who will be punished, etc etc

Yes, God is merciful, but he has not gotten the opportunity to be merciful, lets wait till the day of judgement. As to Mercy, God is merciful every day.

He has an angel on your right side making sure u r okey. U can breath. The universe does not crumble. U have a body that works amazingly without u paying monthly fee to have to own it. etc etc


Gods mercy is infinite.


But........



I know ....u r hang up on the punishment.



Well.....God is Just. He sent us Quran to guide us. Abdi hebel posted a Yasir Qadhi video up there, i recommend u listen to it.


God is Just because he has warned you, either do this or this will happen. Its not really rocket science. Its not a democratic vote.


Shukram


Salaaam Aleikum

Nope. Personally not comfortable doing that as well.

It is simple: There is no god but Allah and Muhammad PBUH is his messenger. We believe in the 5 pillars of Islam, and that whatever good deeds you do upon this dunya, you will take it with you to the hereafter and likewise with your bad deeds. We believe in following the sunnah of the prophet and ensuring we stray away from anything bad and evil that will prohibit us from entering Jannah. We believe Allah’s words given to our Messenger to be the last words given to the ummah of this planet and that we will return to our maker.


This is the faith that’s inside our mind.


If you need anything to be answered, you can always ask a local sheikh or check Islamic Q&A. It has all the answers you’re looking for. Good luck, man.

I respect this answer. Although I don't believe it. And on that end this, without validity or invalidity is strictly my personal opinion.

 

[YourBroMoe]

No because of my problem with Hell. As I explained above.

 

[A_A]

Nope. Personally not comfortable doing that as well.

Ah ok I understand. Personally I’m not a scholar. There are Islamic Q&A websites, but you’ll have to speak with someone who knows there stuff.
