I am creating this thread to serve as a resource for information about Islam and to try to shed some light on some verses in The Holy Qur'an. In particular, verses that have been taken out of context or translated in a twisted manner.
The Institute of Islamic and Arabic Sciences in America iiasa.org
Islamic Affairs Department of The Royal Embassy of Saudi Arabia iad.org
About "Jihad" alhewar.com
I will keep updating the original post to include more links.
This thread is moderated for I have no time nor the desire to get sucked into protracted circumlocutory arguments. Nor do I wish to indirectly help disseminate misunderstandings of Islam.
I have been accused of manipulating the readers on this thread... I am not really sure how is that possible...! furthermore, I don't think anyone here is a minor and vulnerable to being manipulated... nor are the readers of SI in general simpletons ......
the basis for the accusation is my blocking some people whom I felt were not at all interested in learning, but rather posting defamatory misrepresentations of the Holy Qur'an to antagonize Muslims and create hatred towards them from non-Muslims... and it is really beyond me why does someone insist on wanting to post to this thread when they have other threads to post to what they want, and can even create a whole new thread!
I make no claim to be an authority on anything, mind you Islam I try to answer what I can, and say I dont know when I dont know I suggest to everyone to utilize the links in the original post I will look for more links, especially one with the explanation of the whole Quran and the reasons behind every verse in it.
