@Seans6221@sneako Circling the Kaaba seven times and praying while doing so is the Sunnah of the Prophet; we do not place our heads upon the Kaaba, but rather orient ourselves towards it.
@Rational_Dane@feadenx@Jvnior Do not be so foolish as to speak ill of my Prophet based on things you have heard from others; back in the day, your churches used to sell plots of land in Paradise.
@Rational_Dane@feadenx@Jvnior Historical sources record that Aisha's elder sister Asma was 10 years older than her and passed away at the age of 100 in the 73rd year of the Hijra. If Asma was 27–28 years old during the Hijra, Aisha must have been around 17–18 years old.
@iVasileioss@Owen_Ob01@Alien_jandra@yescontextfb "Whoever acquires knowledge to boast before scholars, to argue with the ignorant, or to draw people's attention to himself, Allah will cast him into Hell." (Tirmidhi, Ilm, 6)
@lkura_cavlar@ffaisalaf Some people portray Islam in a bad light, and others immediately conclude that Islam is bad or that its followers are bad; this breaks my heart, so I cannot simply ignore it.
@lkura_cavlar@ffaisalaf Look, the noble Islam I believe in is a religion of tolerance; one ought to treat even non-Muslims with tolerance—perhaps they might become my brothers in faith one day.
@iVasileioss@Owen_Ob01@Alien_jandra@yescontextfb "Allah has sealed their hearts and their hearing, and over their eyes is a veil. For them, there is a great punishment." (Surah Al-Baqarah, Verse 7)
@LadyLevnon In Islam, the Kaaba is not an idol; it is sacred and serves as the *qibla* for us because the Prophet Muhammad worshipped there. We regard it as sacred not because of the Kaaba itself, but because the Prophet Muhammad worshipped Allah there.
@lkura_cavlar@ffaisalaf I also think it’s wrong for Japanese people to assume every Muslim is the same; I’ve worked with many Japanese people due to my job, and based on the characters of the individuals I’ve worked with, I certainly wouldn't judge every Japanese person by that standard.
@iVasileioss@Owen_Ob01@Alien_jandra@yescontextfb My Prophet Muhammad is by no means a man to be ashamed of, nor is he a pedophile; he was sent as a mercy to the worlds and is the human being who most beautifully embodies the attributes of Allah.
@Old_Boy9915@annt_03@Alien_jandra@Yagizacar@yescontextfb I need to perform the morning prayer; please look into it and ask me about any parts that are unclear to you. I swear by Allah and the Prophet Muhammad that I will explain everything with complete sincerity.
