/IG/ Islam General

As-salam alaykom
Welcome to /Islam/! This thread is dedicated to discussion of the religion of Islam.

Islam is more than just a religion, however, it’s a way of life; one which guides the personal, political actions of believers. Islam even has its own legal code.

This thread’s topic is the new 'terms' paste. Is it solid? It's pretty barebones, what else should be added?

>FAQ

>Why Islam?
Islam is truth. Christianity though initially having been based on a revelation by God has been thoroughly disproven. The bible is completely unreliable with the originals still unknown to this day. The quran however has been perfectly preserved since the beginning.

>Are Islam's teachings and Sup Forums's views compatible?
Yes perfectly. Islam fights any form of degeneracy with an iron fist. No drugs, no alcohol, no feminism. Strong patriarchic family values. The sound of children's laughter has almost silenced in the west, Islam has the highest birthrate in the world.

>Isn't it mysogynistic?
No. 3 women convert to Islam for every male convert. Women realise feminism is a false gospel and only when you find your purpose in life you can be truely happy. Yes Islam commands modesty but so did the west for millenia. People know start to realise that's the norm. It is time that Sup Forums realises that too. The 4 wives you will have are a bonus.

>Isn't it anti-nationalistic?
No. Islam commands us to respect all races and cultures and only cut out the blasphemous and degenerate aspects. That's why Islam in Indonesia differs greatly from say SA Islam. Obviously like christianity the religion itself hass no boundaries by country but it very well respects nations within. Without Islamic birth rates your race and nation will soon go extinct.

>What about my christian heritage?
What about it? Constantinople has been under Islamic rule for nearly 600 years now and is still the center of so called "orthodox" christianity. Christian minorities in Palestine, Egypt, etc. have been under Islamic rule much longer. Islam commands us to protect christians and jews, even zoroastrians.

>Isn't it treason?
Treason to what? God? Certainly not. Christianity is false and disproven and you know that. Nor will there ever be a massive christian revival in the way Sup Forums desires. Islam however is the fastest growing religion in the world. Even if it weren't true you should ride the tiger.

>All my ancestors were christian
Your ancestors were pagans. Then a different form of pagan, than a different etc. Then catholics, maybe orthodox, then protestants, then atheists. Your ancestors desired to serve God. It is not bad that you have more knowledge about the right path to it. God is allmerciful.

>What about inbreeding?
True. Remind me what bible verse is the cause of the west's rejection of cousin marriage? Correct, it doesn't exist. In fact, many prophets of the old testament practiced it. God doesn't consider cousin marriage evil, that doesn't mean secular laws against it must not be uphold.

>What about pedophilia?
Same thing. Islam is the only religion that prohibits marriage for people not yet fit for marriage. For whites and asians with a more delayed development stricter rules can be created no questions asked.

>But the hook nosed merchant told me all muslims are violent terrorists
Suicide is forbidden in Islam. These misguided murderers practice a wrong version of what they believe to be Islam. Islam promotes peace. In fact the word Islam steams from salam (shalom) which means peace.

>The boomer Sup Forums ignores the true of Islam.

Bump, please keep on redpilling racists about the truth of Islam.

Tgere is a reason why in so many Muslim countries it is a tradition to have sex with boys instead of girls! If youve ever been to countries like Lebanon or Palestine you will see men holding hands, giving each other backrubs, and other signs of affection. It is time we lay to rest the evil zionist lie about Islam being homophobic because Muhammad also had sex with other men.

Redditors retards ruined this board and any hope for white people.

Hi, I am curious about the Dead Sea Scrolls. Islamic fundamentalists often claim that the scriptures of both the Old and New Testament were corrupted.

Isaiah 9:6 says

"For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."

The Dead Sea Scrolls prove that this wording has been true for more than 2100 years. My question to you is, at what point do you believe the scriptures of the Christians were corrupted, and what proof do you have(other than the Quran said so) to back it up?

I asked you a genuine question.

Dead Sea Scrolls are a jewish discovery, user, most likely fake like many related discoverers about true origin of the kingdom of Jerusalem and the true others of the Holy Land. It is the Qaran is the prophet's direct word.

The answer is generally that a great deal of time passed between the compilation of the bible and the time that the books, especially the New Testament, were supposedly written. And even if the original compilation by the seven Ecumenical Councils was faithful to the original word it has been endlessly translated and re-translated over time. The Quran as we know it today, on the other hand, was compiled by people who knew the prophet personally, and the original Arabic remains the canonical edition. Translations do exist but they are referred to only as 'interpretations' of the Arabic original, and the wording of those translations isn't used (or at least shouldn't be used) as the basis for theological arguments.

Are there many Muslims in Brazil ?

I am not sure if anyone cares, or if there is grounds to make way here, but some of the outwards, functional aspects are quite similar to Christianity. To the old type of christianity this is. Religions are nation builders/maintainers. Main difference between christianity and islam is polygamy tho.

How can well-meaningful Muslims here in the U.S.A. call out bullshit behavior of other Muslims without threatening the safety and well-being of their families? It seems that any call for action or restraint is met with death threats and harami labels.

Why is Islam such an utter failure in uprooting degenerate lust of drugs, whores and homosexual relationships around the globe?
youtube.com/watch?v=terpxz5Hvzc

The Land of the Two Holy Mosques is ruled by homosexuality embracing pussybois! And Ummah is bowing to their will and vision of Islam, how can you call Ummah masculine?
What "based" is there about lowering Western IQ levels via inbreeding according to Islamic tradition of marriages?
Why the fuck are Islamic governments in Afgan and Pakilands even giving a pass for raping and enslaving pre-teen and teen age boys?
Why do Gulf Arabs still continue enslaving their own brothers-in-faith from foreign lands and rape their sisters-in-faith when they come to work in their lands?

Also: Why are Muslims liars and heretics?
How can you claim that Koran is pure, uncorrupted and full word of God that is perfect, if you couldn't know how to pray to God without corrupted words of men (=Hadiths)?
Why was such crucial piece of information left out of "perfection" that is word of God?
Why do you compare corrupted words of men (=Hadiths) to "perfection" of Koran?
Why is it required in order to receive the full grace of God???
Why can't you receive full salvation and grace of God with faith on Koran solely, like Quranists believe?
Why do you believe his bullshit stories of him flying into heaven on back of a unicorn and camel piss being medicine?

About 20% of the Koran isn't written in Arabic, mate.

Mashallah brother, may I remind you that portraying people is haram? Even if it is Ibn Battuta.

Polygamy most likely is the answer for most of these things, when a few guys take multiple wives, you get something like a viking society in which they must raid foreign nations to get more wives for the large portion of men who are now wifeless. Hense why there is an overabundance of desire and lust within them. Just as you would expect in christian priests who are not allowed to wed.

Islam is the last of the Mesopotamian death cults. It has violence and misogyny baked into the operating system, and is the one faith that can't get along with any other. You depraved motherfuckers can't even get along with the Buddhists.

Debunk this please:

Perhaps the liberalization of the U.S.A. is an attempt to get the to pick the "d" block; today, many first generation immigrants of fighting male age would happily pick the "a" quadratn so, in essence, doesn't this mean that the west is being deliberately made to accommodate that which will destroy it?

Like in this post , the person makes the argument that "facts" are inseparable from "ideology" insofar as facts need to be believed in to exist as "facts".

Knowing this and the "fact" that Uthman destroyed every version of the Koran except that which he deemed acceptable (read, most convenient for him), would it not be most prudent for the prominent imams of today come together to modernize the koran for today's generation of global-minded Muslims?

>It has violence and misogyny

those things are good, fuck off.

Yea it would be a good idea to modernize it, but you would have to remember that once you go down this route, the kike interest in subverting it would go up by 2000x. The moment you announce it, they will fund like a billion dollars in subversive activity money towards whomever holds the reins in this reform. The chance of it being halted or perverted is near 90%

>Perhaps the liberalization of the U.S.A. is an attempt to get the to pick the "d" block; today, many first generation immigrants of fighting male age would happily pick the "a" quadratn so, in essence, doesn't this mean that the west is being deliberately made to accommodate that which will destroy it?

also I have no idea what you are typing here.

not necessarily good, but (the threat of violence especially) necessary for the security of a nation. Like anything, too much is just as bad as not enough; this is what the fundamentalists need to understand. By being absurdly rigid in their interpretations, they do more to harm the image of Allah in today's world and call anyone who disagrees infidels and haramis

Attached: beaver on violence.png (915x1161, 370K)

Yea, the death penalty for leaving islam may be a bit too harsh. But you have to remember that this religion is less made with "you should remember this logic and apply it to your life as what it could do to others" and more as "dont do this or we keel you and you will have direct consequences", I hate to say it but for people who have 10 IQ points lower than the europeans, harder concepts like christianity do not work exactly well. Plus some of these concepts only can be attained later in life as adults. So in some ways this violent and direct approach is better. But it lacks the subtlety and shine of matured christianity (though some of the russian muslims may take their own matured approach towards islam)

You just pick the kind one until they pick against you, then you fuck them up.
You have to be willing to change your position after theirs is revealed. All while trying to not commit too hard to the kind one that you can't recover.
Over multiple iterations you can get a better feel for the other and communicate etc. to produce better outcomes.

Reported to Francken. GTFO

maybe, but on theological level all of this nigger tier behaviour of raping teen age boys was reasoned to be permeable in order not have premarital sex

>kike interest in subverting
how do we even begin to fight that kind of corruption, no less at a sincere attempt to improve the world? It seems that when we're too afraid to call out violence for fear of retaliation, pic related happens anyway and literal pacifists start forming death squads resulting in good people dying anyway

>what you are typing here
the jews know that both whites and arabs can be stupidly altruistic to others and themselves and, to subvert both, try to paint their protectionist tendencies as hatred on both sides when, in reality, both sides are trying, in their minds, to protect their people and culture

the kikes are ALWAYS on the prowl, here on the imageboards, on nearly all websites, in many communities of interest around the world. They conspire much better than the muslims, or even christians in their prime against everyone. If you were to call for a sincere reform, of most of the holy heads of islam in somekind of council. By god...they would most likely bomb them or something. Maybe even something worse.

Yea its pretty damning, thats what you get when there is a much less than fair access to females in your nation. No night clubs where to find slags or higher places with single women looking for husbands. This genetic strategy of theirs most likely arose from the fact that they are kinda inbred, 10 IQ points lower, have strong traditions around tribal warfare and thus there is lots of violence in their mids. I am not sure if this could be changed so easily into a more civilized way. Not many bothered to research the data from them.

>it's reddits fault for shitting on a barbaric, disgusting religion

well if you were able to do jew spotting (knowing the phenotype of the jew, and maybe even race mixed jews, also teaching it to your members) you could get pretty far in that respect. I recall that even jew controlled egypt does not get very far into anything because you guys are extremely loyal to your own, much more than money, and constantly betray the kike orders. So you got that going on for you. But there is one place where the jew has less power. If you somehow managed to suppress the shia/sunni thing for a small period of time, Iran would be a good place to meet up probably...

But if you do modernize it, dont change much around women lol. Maybe stealing and crime...cutting off hands should be culled but by god dont give the women even an inch...maybe allow them to drive cars so that they dont need anyone else for shopping or whatever...but maybe also restrict them more with smartphone surveillance? maybe Give them phones which you could always listen to? Maybe even have an activated camera?

You know how the chinese approached IT technology? They instituted weird chinese social points, and lots of censorship and control in their own spirit. If you had IT guys of your own on your side you could do exactly that...BUT ONLY FOR THE WOMEN BECAUSE THEY SUCK ASS. MAKE THOSE SMARTPHONES INTO CONSTANTLY ON GPS DEVICES THAT WARN YOU IF THEY COME INTO CONTACT WITH OTHER MALES WHICH ARE TOO CLOSE. OR WITH SOME UNSAVERY FEMALES.

Now that would be a modernization lol

That doesn't explain why Gulf slugs are enslaving their own brothers-in-faith thou.
No white nor Asian Christian nation conducts such inhumane tribal behaviour.
Only Muslims and African tribal niggers except it to be permeable.

for the same reason why christians waged open warfare against other christians when the time was at such a permitting time for such actions...genetic competition never dies out.

When you have a bunch of elements which are bothering you. Like past history, kings and queens, border disputes, trade wars etc...and religion is of minor importance...you will wage war based on genetic competition and will pervert whatever "Teachings" there are into your favor.

And even when we all racemix. The race mixers will most likely still find other ways to group up and out-compete others. Competition, and in group preference. Kek, its all silly and stupid but it does always play a role.

This doesn't explain modern day Gulf enslavers at all and is poor attempt of reflection to mask Islam's niggerish tribal morals.
all the Asian & SEA Muslims they invite to work in their lands are forced into slavery and women maidens raped or worst case murdered, and turning any of these issues to court case gets the foreigner imprisoned and the Gulf gets off by slap on a wrist.

This would be true if not for the Romans, Greeks, etc.

man, you would have to ask them, they barely talk here on this site. I think we usually only get european ones or middle to high educated ones from more urban area's. Shame really.

pic related, instead of helping Muslims rise above their entrenched dogma as Christians went through with the Protestant Reformation, you instead drag them further down into the depths of reactive violence, simply because you cannot see they have not learned to separate their ideas from what they perceive as "themselves".

As it's with the US' constitution, Muslims see their judiciary source, Koran, being something that cannot be changed as it would destroy the purpose of their vision of order.

this is why myself and many Muslims advocate for some sort of reformation as described in however, they know it will be heavily shilled against and subverted by those who want to keep them in the dark ages to sic them on political enemies. Those who have the power to reform Islam are targets because of the changes it would bring to the world.

>judiciary system
of course it's wrong insofar as leaving the religion is punishable by death amid other tenets of sharia law. Several I've spoken with have amended this as their imams said they may quietly leave, they will only be killed if they inspire others to leave. This inspires a culture of secrecy as speaking out or publicly leaving carries with it a threat of death to oneself and their families.

The Qur'an states that it is a perfect book preserved on tablets in heaven (Surah 85:21-22). If the Qur'an is a perfect book from Allah, then there shouldn't be any contradictions in it. Of course, the Muslims will deny any contradictions exist in the Qur'an, but they do. Some of the contradictions below could be debated, but some of them are clearly contradictions.

A contradiction occurs when one statement on a subject excludes the possibility of another. The first one here is a good example. In Surah 19:67, it states that man was created out of nothing. In 15:26, man is created from clay. Since clay is something, we have a contradiction since "nothing" excludes the possibility of "clay." Both cannot be true.

"I'm making a cartoon knowing it will piss people off to the point of homicide" is just as bad. That makes the cartoonists accomplices to murder.

If you actually read my posts I'm not justifying or defending that kind of behavior; what I am condemning, however, is retarded provocation knowing the reaction it will provoke.
