@Olahammmed@ItsNancyAdaeze@SirDavidBent As a Muslim, I beg to differ. The court process is not any different from the Quranic view of marriages and contracts. Marrying more than one is not a religious rite, and the verse oft-quoted addresses those with orphans to cater for.
@IdrisAOni1 The involvement of official authorities does not validate a practice that lacks a clear scriptural foundation. Nowhere in the Quran is this permitted. There's no compulsion in religion.
@Ihunanya_chi@_wollongong_ Can we extend this narrative to Paul. Paul never met Jesus but his teachings are the principal doctrines Christianity is built on.
@YusufAsunmogejo Quran 4:11-12 did not make this distinction. Also, the will comes first, not the other way round.
“God instructs you regarding your children...” 4:11.
“...after the payment of a will that they may have left or any debt.” Repeated three times between 4:11-12.
@KSebutu@Arewa_Source Anyone hiding behind a verse of the Quran to perpetrate acts of aggression and terrorism is a criminal and should be treated as such. The Quran forbids acts of aggression. Both the speaker and the terrorists are using the clear verses out of context to stir unrest.
Quick Drawing Tip: Capturing foreshortening in a drawing is easier when you see a figure's shapes through circles which are everywhere. An example of this is the subject's knee.
@JokombaJibreel Understanding does not have to be instant, hence the command to ponder on the Quran. You learn something new every time you read and meditate on the words. Limiting understanding the Quran to listening to tafsir contradicts what the Quran says about itself.
@JokombaJibreel I read his comment. The condition to enrol in a madrasah is one that God did not impose. The original post mentioned reading a translation. This is far more beneficial to the average Muslim than reading the Arabic Quran.
