This is blasphemy for the reason that you stated above. The Quran is incorruptible and absolute, any hadith or lecture that contradicts it in any sense is void and attributable to Kufr. We can debate tafseer to a point, but it's not really up for discussion of the wording.

- Dua Jawshan Kabeer - Dua Jawshan Kabeer Sit down, reflect, be realistic and make a plan. Nothing trumps anxiety and unease quite like action. The first step is always the hardest but the path is clearer when formulating a map. When you're done creating a (remember realistic) career path that catches your interest focus next on hobbies. Find out what interests you, find a club or community and get involved. This will open doors to that social life that you're yearning for. Also just some side advice, learn to appreciate your own loneliness and thoughts. So many people are afraid of the silence that they never get to know who they really are. Don't be afraid of the solitude, you're never truly alone. "Call on me, I will respond to you." 40:60

No there isn't. Your "moral" argument is that if it can't be helped God would justify it other wise he is unjust. By the way this is the same fallacy atheists attempt to demonstrate with the dilemma of evil. This is how I know for a fact you lack any reading comprehension. If it wasn't evident from the fact that you can't read the Quran this for sure has cemented it. The very article you posted on the first myth has a scientist who's been criticized by the same pro-LGBT community who claims that the scientific community is censoring even more damning evidence. Many pro-LGBT papers don't follow the APA's own standards in order to get away with bias data. If you ask nicely I'll even highlight more for you. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.2466/17.CP.4.24 Here let's have a nice laugh together. Why is it that you're claiming to be on such a superior moral high ground than the actual Muslims in this thread, then when I post scientific studies you freeze up and return with a bias article? Here let's look at the data together. Oh would you look at that, they really are raping kids. If you ask extra nicely I can walk you through the math. But surely that's where you excel right? It's definitely not the reading, surely? Can we at least try? Try to remember the points @Mahdavistand @Cool were proposing to you, okay? The article is about sexual liberation and how it opens the doors to hedonism. Published and recorded by a non-bias atheist philosopher. You were weeping about the parallel duality of how one door opens the other. Still keeping up? You didn't even read it. I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt because I genuinely can't seem to understand how you arrived to that conclusion. The LGBT community is a disease to the world. You're really not read up or even educated on the topic. You came here to (I know it bothers you) to cheerlead for Kadhim. Trying to introduce liberal and secular ideology into the religion that's already been perfected for us. Trying to create a moral ethical dilemma that contradicts with God's eternal justice. Despite us constantly posting hadiths, ayat and actual studies that they're destructive to society as a whole, you still hold on to your ignorance. There's really no point in engaging dialogue with you. You're not going to change your stance and just like the people you defend you have no moral compass worth appealing to. "Must you really approach men with lust instead of women? Nay, but you are people without any awareness of right and wrong!" (27:55) "but as for those who abandon themselves to wrongdoing - they are indeed but fuel for the fires of hell!’" 72:15

Lol? He's literally said nothing of worth. I read his posts; he's cherry picking certain verses and attempting to straw man with linguistics. Why doesn't he address the studies I've posted above demonstrating that homosexuality is learned not inherited? @kadhim Is actually doing mental gymnastics in front of all of us and you cheer leading for him because he's challenging "fundamentalism" isn't helping him unfortunately. But don't worry I'm sure he'll continue to make further posts where he winks at the end to demonstrate he made a point. Says who, you? Atheist philosopher David Benatar explains those who promote "sexual liberation" open the doors to rape as a "human right". https://www.jstor.org/stable/40441324. So what @Cool and @Mahdavist says is actually spot on. Unfortunately for you regardless of your feelings, your friend Kadhim doesn't define objective moral values, God does. "This is the Book! There is no doubt about it" 2:2

They also tend to introduce pedophilia as we're now seeing in their communities and pride parades. The cycle of homosexuality can be linked with child molestation as well see the following studies; 1. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0049089X12000610 "Children adopted by LGBT parents are 1150% more likely to be molested" 2. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1556756/ Homosexuals are more likely to become pedophiles and make up the majority of them since over 50% of gay men are pedophiles. 33% of LGBT is also convicted child molesters. 3. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21867592/ Homosexuality occurs by molesting children; that's how they reproduce.

OP, you don't need to do anything. Allah will take care of them and Inshallah the progressive Muslims who defend them and attribute lies to Allah by twisting his words. "And Lot when he said to his people, "Do you commit such immorality as no one has preceded you with from among the worlds? You lust after men instead of women! You are certainly transgressors.”" Quran 7:80-81 Not that I'm questioning anyone's reading comprehension but multiple tafseers on this ayah are very clear. They are not born that way; https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-02585-6 They introduce plagues into society; https://www.acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/0003-4819-148-4-200802190-00204 by a result of intercourse anally. 1/2

To be fair, in this situation yes. Since we have traditions where prophet Muhammad (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم)'s coming was foretold by previous prophets and thus Allah. We have lots of accounts of men who were patiently awaiting that glorious day and even tested the prophet hood when he was a child. I.E. the Christian monk Bahira and another Jewish Rabbi that comes to mind. "Jesus, the son of Mary, said: 'O children of Israel! Behold, I am an apostle of God unto you, [sent] to confirm the truth of whatever there still remains of the Torah, and to give [you] the glad tiding of an apostle who shall come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad.' (61:6) As for the obligation it comes out of his position and duty. 1. He it is who has sent forth His Apostle with the [task of spreading] guidance and the religion of truth, to the end that He make it prevail over every [false] religion; and none can bear witness [to the truth] as God does. (48:28) 2. BUT IF they turn away [from thee, O Prophet, know that] We have not sent thee to be their keeper: thou art not bound to do more than deliver the message [entrusted to thee]. (42:48) There are several other verses in which the Prophet states himself as a warner with a mission. As for not speaking out of his own desire you're correct due to the following verse as well "Nor does he speak of concupiscent desire. His word is only a Revelation revealed to him." (53:3) But that's only because he's bound by the duty of the first 2 verses posted above. As for the verse you posted (28:56) this is in reference to the outcome of his mission. Once his duty and task as detailed above is complete, then he doesn't need to pursue any further. Sayyid Abbas Sadr-emeli also agrees with me in his tafseer An Enlightening Commentary into the Light of the Holy Qur'an vol. 13 where he states "Divine prophet’s duty is conveying the Messages of Allah to people and showing the right way. Whether people accept or not it does not relate to them. " So this is right because of his careful wording of "present guidance". Your point doesn't really stand.

I'm going to be a bit more harsher in my advice than my brothers. But why do you care? If somebody who I assume was a practicing Shia decides to embrace the path that Shaytan paved for them, then I look forward to God's promise and punishment for them. If I had found any fault in Shia theology I would've left long ago. The amount of mental gymnastics and incorrect assumptions/conclusions your friend jumped to is too infuriating to even write a response to. (Hint: He's wrong on every point). Cut this person off, you're not to be held accountable for someone who rejects the signs of the lord. "Allah has set a seal upon their hearts and upon their hearing, and over their vision is a veil. And for them is a great punishment." (2:7)

It's hilarious to see a man dismissed as a lunatic by his peers return to the mainstream hearts of the Sunni demographic. But yes to answer your question they interpret certain quranic verses to indicate God's physical characteristics. They also have hadith that describe God in a similar fashion to the Christians I.E. made in His image. Another hadith is that He will reveal himself on the Day of Judgement with Muhammad on one side and Muawaiya on the other. Quite funny in my opinion.

Man I did not miss this guys voice. But yeah good points. I still find it ridiculous that modern argument looks back at a society 1500 years old and criticizes customs. Only to spin their own ridiculous and degrading values.

They only care what you think when you regurgitate what they've been promoting. Can anyone confirm these rumors I'm hearing by the way? I heard that the Taliban has been going to Shia events and showing solidarity with them for Muharram? Some Iraqis have been posting videos of this all over my parents facebooks. Not saying that these thugs are redeemable but in the event they establish some trust or boundaries with Shia that go beyond just cutting their heads off. Well then I can at least call that somewhat good news?

Sad reality is that the game is so rigged that any 3rd party candidates will never get representation. Not even invited to debates and usually they stir up a small crowd before completing the pattern by dropping out and endorsing whichever Democrat or Republican aligns with their view. Communism doesn't work. What we need is regulated capitalism and a strong socialist system implemented for those finding it hard to compete in the free market. I.E. welfare, foodstamps etc. In which we DON'T we don't make people welfare dependent by immediately cutting them off the moment they start saving up or doing well. Absolutely ridiculous. I just want a libertarian approach. The government should only really get involved for those who can't speak for themselves like animals, children, elderly with dementia etc. It should be a pillar to lean on if needed not a damn burden on everyone's shoulders.

Won't keep my hopes up. That entire country just became a failed state. Worst of all if other countries begin to acknowledge the Taliban as a legitimate government forefront which they will because of this peaceful transition of power, then nobody is going to do anything. They'll probably just milk the situation as a way of further destabilizing the middle east. Because we know Sunni extremism doesn't stop at borders.

Patience till next year? But no seriously, set a goal for yourself in one year time. Try to have a dramatic change in your motivation, discipline, personality and soul. Do it for the sake of Prophet Muhammad and his family (Peace be upon them). This way Inshallah when you're doing Ziyarah for Imam Ali ((عليه السلام).) on Eid Al-Ghadeer, you can be proud of the man the Ahlulbayt has made you.

Agree! There is no gay gene. It's just propaganda to bend the narrative that the infallible God made them that way and religious folk should be accommodating. A literal fallacy. Study done on a large sample size of 470,000 leads to the following result; “There is no ‘gay gene’ that determines whether someone has same-sex partners,” says Andrea Ganna, a geneticist at … MIT and Harvard … . Family studies have suggested that genetics account for about 32 percent of heritability of homosexual behavior. But each … [gene] has a very small effect on whether someone has ever had a same-sex sexual partner, the new research found." It's completely environmental and social. Mental Illness being promoted on the front lines of society as acceptable. Thus the devil is having a field day tempting.
