    Islam: A complete code of life, a religion,.................................. and so on.

    Actually religion is all about belief. According to the way of belief a lot of religion has been originated on the earth. In Islam, we believe that there is no other almighty present and prophet (sm) is his rassul.

    Wrong interpretation of Islam !!!
    Islam never teaches to become a terrorist. The terrorists are not practicing true Islam rather they are in a great misconception. Their wrong acts are presenting a wrong picture of Islam.

    There are a few Islamic things that the American Justice system will go after, two of them are:
    1. Child marriage. (Mohamad married a 9 year old girl.)
    2. Wife beatings. (Considered domestic violence.)

    Perfect beliefs do not go against common sense. 53 Old man to marry a 9 year old girl, is quite ubnormal and makes sense to no normal human being. 9 year old girls are in no way ready to be mother. Why you guys keep sticking in our eyes these beliefs?

    well its common for marriages like that not to be consumed until the girl is 13-14 ( and thus ready to be a mother), though there is no written rule.

    So anyway, does anybody have any proof for whatever religious beliefs he might have?

    Compared to all other known and baron planets the life on Earth, its Garden is proof of existence in contrast to a vacuum.

    The Garden is the physical presence of its Creator.

    i can proove it to you if islam is actually from ALLAH SWT,
    here the reason,
    Our last prophet ( ROSULLULLOH ) Muhammad SAW , said that before he came to the world , there is a prophet before them .
    and From adam AS until him , and Before the All the Prophet past away he always said the leaders of all prophet from ALLOH is Muhammad SAW, And He will came with Qur'an ( The Perfect Holly Book ) for All Allah creation in this world. We not only learn about religion in qur'an but also medic, and How People live with good attitude.
    I do All the Qur'an said, and it was make my feel better.
    Qur'an is writen by MUHAMMAD SAW Friends ( Manaqib Zaid Bin Tsabit ), but the contain is from MUHAMMAD SAW.
    Manaqib Zaid Bin Tsabit would not dare to improve or to less the Muhammad Wahyu ( Qur'an contain ) because MUHAMMAD SAW SAID, " Woe to those who preferred the word that I never speak and the deeds which I never do ". MUHAMMAD SAW got qur'an, Receipt of a revelation by the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam is a very big event. The fall is an event that is not unexpected. That God gives to man Allah said, elected, that is Muhammad ibn Abdullah ibn Abdul Muttalib.

    Revelation, in the language means, notice secretly nan fast. In syar'i, revelation means the notice of God to His prophets and the apostles about the shari'ah or books you want delivered to them, either by firing or without intermediaries. Revelation is syar'i is obviously more specific, compared with the revelation of meaning in language, both in terms of source, target or content.

    There are various revelations syar'i, and most importantly, the explanation is as follows.

    First: Taklimullah (God Almighty speaks directly) to His Prophet from behind the hijab. That Allaah convey what he wanted to convey, whether awake or in sleep.

    For example in the awake state, ie such as when Allah spoke directly with Moses Alaihissallam, and also with the Prophet Muhammad sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam in the events of Isra' and Ascension. Allah says about Moses:

    "... And God spoke to Moses directly" [an Nisaa `/ 4: 164].

    As for example when in a state of sleep, namely, as told in the hadith of Ibn Abbas and Mu'adh bin Jabal. Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

    أتاني ربي في أحسن صورة فقال يا محمد قلت لبيك رب وسعديك قال فيم يختصم الملأ الأعلى قلت رب لا أدري فوضع يده بين كتفي فوجدت بردها بين ثديي فعلمت ما بين المشرق والمغرب فقال يا محمد فقلت لبيك رب وسعديك قال فيم يختصم الملأ الأعلى قلت ...

    "I was brought (in a dream) by my Lord in the best shape, then He said:" O, Muhammad! "
    I replied, "wa Labbaik sa'daika."
    He said, "What is being debated by the angels?"
    I replied, "O my Rabb, I do not know," then he put his hand on either shoulder, until I felt cold in my chest. Then, I can find out everything in between east and west.
    Allah Almighty says, "O, Muhammad!"
    I replied, "Labbaik sa'daika wa!"
    He said, "What is being debated by the angels?"
    I replied, "... ... ...". (Al Hadith).

    In the case of this revelation, the ulama salaf, sunnah wal Jama Expert opinion holding that the Prophet Moses and Prophet Muhammad Alaihissallam sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, they never heard kalamullah al azaliy al qadim [1], which is one of nature among attributes of God. This opinion is very different and not as claimed by some people, that is heard the whisper of the heart or the sound created by God Almighty to a tree.

    Secondly: Allaah convey his message through the mediation of the Angel Gabriel, and it includes several ways, namely:

    1). The angel Gabriel appeared in its original form. This way is very rare, and only happened twice. First, when the Angel Gabriel came to the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam after the vacuum of the revelation, after the Surat Al' Alaq lowered, then the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam did not receive revelation for a while. This period is called the fatrah, meaning vacuum. Second, the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam saw the Angel Gabriel in its original form, ie when the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam dimi'rajkan.

    2). The angel Gabriel Alaihissallam sometimes came to the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam in the form of a man. Usually in the form of a man named Dihyah al Kalbiy. He was a handsome handsome friend. Or sometimes in the form of a man who was not known by the friends. In the delivery of revelation like this, all the friends who attended to see and hear his words, but they do not know the nature of this problem. As recounted in the famous hadith Jibril, which contains questions about the faith, Islam and ihsan. This is narrated by Imam Bukhari and Muslim. At the beginning of this hadith, 'Umar ibn Khaththab radi' anhu relates:

    بينما نحن عند رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ذات يوم إذ طلع علينا رجل شديد بياض الثياب شديد سواد الشعر لا يرى عليه أثر السفر ولا يعرفه منا أحد حتى جلس إلى النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ...

    At one point, we're sitting with the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam. Suddenly a man dressed in very white, very black hair, no visible signs to travel long distances, and no no one among us who knew him, until he sat near the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam

    Then in the end, that is shortly after the man left, the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam asked Umar' Abd-Allaah:

    يا عمر أتدري من السائل قلت الله ورسوله أعلم قال فإنه جبريل أتاكم يعلمكم دينكم

    "O, 'Umar. Do you know who people are asking about?" I replied, "Allah and His Messenger are more aware," (then) the Messenger of Allah said, "He is the Angel Gabriel came to you to teach you guys din (religion) you."

    This suggests, although the friends can see it and could hear his voice, but they do not know if he is the Angel Gabriel who came to bring revelation. They understand after being told by the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam.

    3). The angel Gabriel came to the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, but he was not visible. The Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam know the arrival of the Angel Gabriel in a voice that mengirinya. Sometimes like the sound of bells, and sometimes like the hum of bees. This is the hardest for the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, which was described as receiving revelation like this, the face of the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam changed. Despite the very cold weather, he sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam bathed in sweat, and at that time the physical weight of the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam sudden change.

    As told by one of his companions, namely Zaid bin Thabit radi 'anhu, he said: "Allaah has lowered revelation to the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam, while the thigh, he sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam was in over my thighs. Then thigh He sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam became heavy, until I'm afraid my thighs will be destroyed ". [2]

    Weighing receive revelation in this way, also narrated by the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam. He sallallaahu 'alaihi wa ass asked:

    يا رسول الله كيف يأتيك الوحي فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم أحيانا يأتيني مثل صلصلة الجرس وهو أشده علي فيفصم عني وقد وعيت عنه ما قال وأحيانا يتمثل لي الملك رجلا فيكلمني فأعي ما يقول

    "O, Messenger of Allah. How do I revealed to thee?" He sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam replied, "Sometimes the revelations came to me like the sound of the bell, and this is the hardest for me, and I noticed what she was saying. And sometimes an angel came to the intangible of a man, and he relayed to me, then I will consider what he said. "

    Based on the history and explanation of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, it can be understood that while receiving any revelation, the Prophet felt heavy. However, the most serious is that this kind of way.

    Third: Revelation conveyed by way of whispered into the heart.
    That God Almighty or the Angel Gabriel to deliver the revelation put into the heart of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam with notice that, this is from God Almighty. Like the hadeeth narrated by Ibn Abi Dunya in al Qana'ah books, and Ibn Majah, and al-Hakim in al Mustadrak. Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam said:

    إن روح القدس نفث في روعي: لن تموت نفس حتى تستكمل رزقها فاتقوا الله وأجملوا في الطلب ولا يحملن أحدكم استبطاء الرزق أن يطلبه بمعصية الله فإن الله لا ينال ماعنده إلا بطاعته

    "Indeed Ruhul Quds (Angel Gabriel) blowing into into my soul:" There will be no souls of the dead until Allah perfected gift. Then let your fears to God, and seek rizki ( Gift ) with a fine. Do not delay rizki ( Gift ) make one of you looking for a way to engage in immoral acts of God. Surely what is in the sight of Allah Almighty will not be achieved, except with obey Him. "

    Fourth: Revelation given by God Almighty in the form of inspiration.
    That God gives knowledge to the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam, when he berijtihad on a problem.

    Fifth: Revelation revealed through dreams.
    That is Allah Almighty sometimes gives revelation to His prophets through the medium of dreams. For example, the revelation which was revealed to the Prophet Abraham to sacrifice his son Alaihissalllam. This event is told by God Almighty:
    
    "And when the child until (at the age could) tried with him, Ibrahim said:" O my son! I saw in a dream that I sacrifice. So what do you think Think about it! "He replied:" O my father, do what is commanded thee; God willing you will find me among those who wait ". [Ash Shaffat/37: 102].

    So the ways of God's revelation acceptance Almighty granted to the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam. All kinds of this revelation coupled with the belief of the recipient of revelation, that what is received actually came from God Almighty, not a whisper of life, especially the cunning of Satan.

    Washallahu 'Nabiyina ala Muhammad, wa' ala alihi washabihi wasallam.

    [Appointed from as-Siratun Nabawiyah Dau fi-il Quran was Sunnah, Muhammad bin Muhammad Abu Syuhbah, pp. 269-271]

    By the rules of structured argument, you have conceded the discussion argumentum ad ignorantiam.


    Interesting argument... I like it.

    For myself, I would be interested in an answer to the question.

    Christianity defines itself by John 13:34-35 "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." The basic rules that all Christians must live by are the Ten Commandments

    Judaism is similar to Christianity in Love and treating others fairly, and also has the Ten Commandments.

    What defines Islam? What quote(s) in the Koran define Islam?

    I didnt say that "because it hasnt been disproven it must be true" , that's not the argument that I'm putting forth. I was merely asking him to state his arguments that makes Islam NOT from God..then we would take it from there.

    And my job is simple, I'm not into debating, I only have a message to convey, whoever wishes to take it, understand it, accept and implement it, has done something that is good for him.

    I already know people will reject Islam, I already know people are going to hell, so the one that rejects, doesn't affect me, Muslims, or Islam.

    The word "Islam" is an Arabic word that means "submitting and surrendering your will to Almighty God"

    This means that a Muslim is someone that surrendered himself to God and basically follows whatever God says in his final revelation...

    Not necessarily. A person who like to believe in a god is someone weak enough to give himself/herself an excuse to be helped by that 'god' in a way or another.
    You can hear often: "Oh God, help me" = "Sh*t, I'm not able to make it because I'm weak". But the other believers would say that god put him/her on a test, to see if she/he can make it. In short, it's always the same BS...
    But I'm sure that excuse helps those weak people.
