So God can never be merciful, gracious, because grace is not justice and therefore is wrong! A holy God can only be holy if he NEVER does wrong !! So FACT is without Jesus his SACRIFICE out of love for us we would all be lost! Only YHWH is not lying when he says he is HOLY and MERCIFUL !! Who is YHWH equal? EXACTLY NO ONE !!

On the contrary, Saudi Arabia, the most important channel funded by the government, is a liberal channel called Al-Arabiya. There is no religious channel funded by the Saudi government, although I hope so. The reason for representing the Salafis in the media channels is because they speak with evidence from the Qur’an and the Sunnah and do not talk about myths, stories and tales, so the media channels respect them more and host them.

After the sept. 11 attacks these voices of reason were all but drowned out by the rabid baying for blood.

A more nuznced understanding of any religion is always better. At the same time, it is notable that some of the criticisms of Islam that have emerged in the past twenty years do apply to all the largest sects and varieties of islam. Salafism is certainly the origin of quite a few recent historical phenomena in "radical Islam "; However, if you listen to ex-muslim critics of Sunni and Twelver Shia Islam, they often do not come from a Salafi background. It's worth listening to their perspective. At its core, their criticisls of Islam point out the ways Islamic modernism has made Islam even less compatible with the conditions of modernity. I suspect you have to look to the Ibadi, Ismaili, and secularized Western Muslims to find an alternative. I'm not certain.

​@@fahadsiddiqui85 ok, but he was concerned about the people who were not aware of Islam in sufism and the most important thing is the way of salafism and after the process of developing as a human being maybe it is a good opportunity to study sufism. This is the way I understand that. isn't it?

O neo-salafis of today. Do you really think following your reviver Mohammed Ibn Abdul Wahab wil take you to Jannah? Have you forgotten the "Hadith about Najd" ? Read on. If you can "see" with the eyes of your heart and you are not brain dead, then the following is a wakeup call for you to repent from todays "neo Salafism" : 1. "Narrated Ibn `Umar: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Sham! O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Yemen." The People said, "And also on our Najd." He said, "O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Sham (north)! O Allah! Bestow Your blessings on our Yemen." The people said, "O Allah's Apostle! And also on our Najd." I think the third time the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "There (in Najd) is the place of earthquakes and afflictions and from there comes out the side of the head of Satan."" : sunnah.com/bukhari:7094 Now the interesting part here is that the Sahabah who said: "And also on our Najd." were Sahabah from the Najd area of Arabia at that time. Reason is that though many of todays "neo salafis" claim it's najd of Iraq, Iraq was not even Muslim country at that time ,so the Sahabah was from Najd of Arabia. To back this point up you need to look at Hadith about Miqat points for Haj, and it is clearly mentioned that Iraq was not Muslim at that time,so there were no Sahabah from Iraq asking for blessing for their " iraq najd"(as claimed by neo salafis) , but they were asking for blessing for the Najd of Arabia. Narrated `Abdullah bin Dinar: Ibn `Umar said, "The Prophet (ﷺ) fixed Qarn as the Miqat (for assuming the Ihram) for the people of Najd, and Al-Juhfa for the people of Sham, and Dhul-Hulaifa for the people of Medina." Ibn `Umar added, "I heard this from the Prophet, and I have been informed that the Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'The Miqat for the Yemenites is Yalamlam.' "When Iraq was mentioned, he said, "At that time it was not a Muslim country." sunnah.com/bukhari:7344 2. Imam Bukhari even wrote a whole chapter called : "(16)Chapter: “Al-Fitnah will appear from the EAST.” : sunnah.com/bukhari/92 Several Hadith mentions that the fitna will appear from the EAST. Only Najd of Arabia lies to the East of Medina ( Hijaz) : Narrated Salim's father: The Prophet (ﷺ) stood up beside the pulpit (and pointed with his finger towards the East) and said, "Afflictions are there! Afflictions are there, from where the side of the head of Satan comes out," or said, "..the side of the sun.."sunnah.com/bukhari:7092 Narrated Ibn `Umar: I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) while he was facing the East, saying, "Verily! Afflictions are there, from where the side of the head of Satan comes out." sunnah.com/bukhari:7093 Abu Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allah(s.a.w) said: "Faith is Yemeni, and disbelief is from the direction of the EAST. Tranquility is for the people of sheep, and wickedness and Riya is in those who boast among the people of horses and the people of camels....sunnah.com/tirmidhi:2243 Now tell me who in the EAST boast among the people of horses and the people of camels? People from Najd in arabia! 3. In the first Hadith mentioned above قَرْنُ الشَّيْطَانِ ‏"‏‏.‏ " ( QARN-usheitan ) is mentioned. Interestingly Syyedina Mohammed (pbuh) said that Miqat point for Najd in Saudi is QARN : Narrated Salim bin `Abdullah from his father: I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying, "The Miqat for the people of Medina is Dhul-Hulaifa; for the people of Sham is Mahita; (i.e. Al-Juhfa); and for the people of Najd is QARN. And said Ibn `Umar, "They claim, but I did not hear personally, that the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The Miqat for the people of Yemen is Yalamlam." sunnah.com/bukhari:1528 4. Now look at this google map. Najd of Saud lies to EAST of Madinah, and Iraq is NORTH-EAST : aalequtub.files.wordpress.com/2019/12/13912697_1218930288140440_5976180288688380779_n.jpg Conclusion: The Hadith of Najd speaks about najd of Arabia and none other najd anywhere else.So anyone who wants to save their akhirah,should repent from wahabism and come over to Sufism and join true Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamah aqeedah: www.ahlus-sunna.com

@@Allahuma.sali.ala.muhammad. Salaamu Alaikum! Brother, you have misunderstood the context of Sura Al Hashr verses 7-8. The context is the conflict between the burgeoning Muslim community in Medina and the Jewish tribe of the Banu Nadir. Shortly after his and his followers exodus from Mecca to Medina, the prophet, concluded a treaty with the banu Nadir according to which they pledged themselves to neutrality in the hostility between the Muslims and the pagan Quraysh. After the Muslim victory in the battle of Badr the leaders of that Jewish tribe declared that Mohammed was, indeed the prophet that had been predicted in the Torah, but one year later, after the near defeat of the Muslims at Uhud the banu Nadir treacherously, broke their compact with the prophet and entered into an alliance with the Meccan Quraysh. Because of this, the prophet placed before them, two alternatives, either war or departure from Medina with all of their possessions. The banu Nadir choose war. When they lost the conflict, they were banished from Medina. Ayats number 5-8 references the booty that the Muslim community came into possession of as a result of this banishment and informs that community that only the prophet would be allowed to make the decision as to what was to be done with the former Jewish properties left behind. The full English translation from Yusuf Ali is as follows: “What Allah has bestowed on his messenger, and taken away from the people of the township, belongs to Allah, to his messenger to kindred and orphans, the needy and the wayfarer; in order that it may not merely make a circuit between the wealthy among you. So take what the messenger assigned to you and deny yourselves that which he withholds from you and fear, Allah, for Allah is strict in punishment.” Please read Quran with care. Do not depend on religious leadership to tell you what our blesséd Lord and Benefactor says when we know the our Lord speaks in plain language that obviates the need for “scholars”, muftis, shaikhs, mullahs or any other high holy muckuty mucks to explain to us His holy words.

Agreed. ALHAMDULILAH

interesting psychological perspective, thank you for sharing it.

From personal experience this is a major problem for young converts especially in the internet age. When you don't have a good social network of flesh and blood human friendships you look to the internet to answer your questions about Islam. Unfortunately, like he mentioned, Salafis dominate the internet space so you'll often receive rulings that have little to no application in a Western society like the US. It's often a foreign scholar who has no idea what it's like to be an American, but when you read it he provides no scope of interpretation, making you think that every Muslim around you is engaged in Bidah and sin. This effect compounds because no sane person like to be around someone who constantly corrects them for petty things that may or may not even be wrong in the first place. Thus, more isolation. Islam is meant to empower the individual not turn him into an armchair critic that just goes around looking for minor faults to point out.

From my humble opinion. I think if you call yourself a Salafi it is very arrogant, you are saying that you are a companion of the Prophet. It’s like saying I am from the best. I think if you are a Muslim it is better to say you are a weak Muslim. If not you will be judge by that standard.

From my understanding there are such a variety of reasons that one group becomes more or less possible and that anyone who tries to give a one size fits all explanation is just throwing out data that doesn't fit their thesis. Then when you try to attribute reasons of why a particular religion at a particular time followed a certain direction you often are just HARKing (hypothesizing after the results are known). Furthermore I would suggest that spiritual isn't the opposite of legalistic and fundamentalist. The Mysticism vs Rationalism axis isn't always corelated with antinomianism. I would also point out that legalistic and fundamentalist don't go together always either. Many fundamentalist Christians use the term legalism pejoratively for example.

Salafism can be plenty spiritual for the individual. Remember, Salafism claims to offer a direct means of understanding God through his works without the aid of scholars. What Salafism most definitely is not is pluralistic. Likewise, while Sufism can be legalistic (remember, many judges and scholars historically were Sufis), it is also very much pluralistic. We do actually see sociological reasons why societies become more or less pluralistic. A society that perceives itself under threat will begin to put up walls and narrowly define itself in a bid of self-preservation. Meanwhile, a society that views itself as dominant or ascendant will more readily tolerate deviance as a product of growth. And, indeed, we see this with Salafism and Sufism. Figures like Abd al-Wahhab and Ibn Taymiyyah arose in reaction to periods of mass upheaval and crisis (colonialism and Mongol conquest, respectively). In contrast, Sufism spread during the long marked periods were Islam was dominant in its region.

I have two responses to your question. One, if you take even a cursory look at history you'll notice, any change in the social order, especially due to external reasons, like colonialism, results in internal reflection to explain the fall of the old order, and more importantly, offer a new way forward, given the new reality. This then results in a new religion, different from the older one. The difference could be a minor one, as in a call to rid the religion of innovations; or a major one, as in the complete abandonment of the old religion and the adoption of an entirely new one. Second response is more philosophical in nature. In the philosophy of Hegel, systems of ideas, like religion, have inherent contradictions which after sometime lead to the questioning of the validity of those ideas. Therefore to resolve these contradictions, a new set of ideas are proposed that resolve those inherent contradictions. We would see this as a new version of the religion. This process, however, is never ending. Every new proposition (aka religion) will go through this dialectical process, as it is called. Change, as they say, is the only constant in life.

Why are some American evangelicals so aggressive?

@@saadanis6820 Secular politics, mostly. There's a huge focus in secular politics to sway religious votes and present EVERYTHING you hear in American Christian circles through extreme languages. I.E. You look at actual, say pro-life majority movements and the polls internally in those things, and they generally agree with most of what pro-choice people believe in, pretty much across the board as far as regulations. But the coverage of a law that's relatively mundane (I.E. permitting a doctor to order an abortion of a baby in a case when the a stillbirth will kill a mother without the mother's permission, due to her being incapacitated) Will be covered in Christian circles, due to decades of internal lobbying, politicking, and political isolation, will be covered via a 'doctors are now permitted to kill children' and some interview with fake/fringe doctors/conspiracy theorists will be presented via a mini documentary about this being done to force population shifts. (Despite what people think, this is often framed within Christian commentaries as anti-Native, Black or Hispanic eugenics programs, as said communities are overwhelmingly Christian in the USA)

It's probably because salafi dawah is very active in west and salafi types is who they got taught about Islam primarily, it's probably also got something to do with the authoritative manner in which they talk about religion that is attractive as opposed to more softer, sophisticated and less direct type dawah from nonsalafi missionaries. It could also to do with how soft Christianity is and how strict Salafis are, so going from one extreme to another is very typical.

It’s because these reverts did their homework and learned from the primary texts of Islam (Quran & Hadith) and read the tafaseer and the opinions of the early scholars on such matters.

Zionism in disguise

There are two points that need to be pointed out. 1. Religion in this case Islam must be based on their sources or there will be nothing to tie each other or centrality in time. 2. People are people. They are human beings. They will Era and will keep doing mistakes and big or small. If one were to talk about Islam, they better have Authentic Sources or else, they have literally nothing, merely opinions of people. Islam per origin, by scripture is a legalistic, textural religion with faith and intention being the center or core.

Yes but who exactly decides what’s an authentic source?

@@seanbowe5529 If you are talking about Quran, the evidence for its Authenticity is there in the Quran itself. There are challenges, predictions, scientific facts not known at the time, logical reasoning, etc. If you are talking about Hadith, there are standards set to know what is Authentic and what is not Authentic. All this also covered and kept in check by Quran .

@@HajjiJesus Specifically in regards to the Hadith, yes there are standards set but those standards differ substantially depending on who you are asking. I think investigating these differences and really trying to understand what is written in both Hadith and the Quran is not something that should be frowned upon like it is by more literalist schools of thought. The standards of Hadith interpretation and authenticity (in my opinion) should be constantly scrutinised and challenged and not just accepted at face value.

@@seanbowe5529 For Hadith, we do. You will not get any better than the efforts done by Muslim scholars 1000 years ago. It is opened for scholars though. We have books that help anyone who would want to try their luck. For Quran, it is different story because it come in not as Hadith but as scripture, memorized and written down by as early as the people who Prophet Mohamed SAW recommended to learn Quran from. In addition, it has no defect either in chain wise or written form. That is not all. Even God says multiple times in the Quran for us to try our luck and bring something like it if we think it is fake. *No body, Muslim or Non-Muslim could for the last 1400 years.* Hadith, we have tens of thousand fake ones. *Known fake ones, fabrications.*

Salafism and Wahhabism are retarded movements for people who can't think for themselves and instead promote a very pedantic and fascistic form of literal Islam. If God is said to have hands and legs then it is taken literally which is no different than believing God to have become human and thus part of creation itself. Salafism is not the same as following the Salaf, which they aren't even unique in doing so. The problem with salafism is that it doesn't adapt to modern circumstances, so they live in hypocrisy forbidding somethings but allowing other things that weren't event present during the time of the prophet. We need to interpret the holy scriptures according to the times we actually live in, because this is how the earliest muslims did. The Salaf saw a current situation or dilemma and then solved any issues according to their contemporary understandings, which we are supposed to do ourselves! The holy Quran is meant to be for all times but that doesn't mean that our understanding of it should stay static and lifeless. Since times change and we live in a totally different day and age compared to the earliest muslims. We drive cars and not camels, we have instruments to calculate the sun and moon, and so much more but these extremist movements try to confine and kill off any further societal progress beneficial to all mankind.
