Assalamu alaikum wa rahmtullahi wa barakatuh brother Cabdixakim First of all I am sorry for being over passionate in my discussion. Whatever the case, I should have the patience to listen to others. Secondly, your last two questions are forcing me to have a deeper look into this matter. I am...

We will have to leave it there. I am well experienced with your way of argumentation. So I will leave it for true knowledge seekers. You cannot see the logic but I am sure, the one who is truely searching for knowledge will see that.

wa ma 'alayna illa albalaagh al mubeen. Wassalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh

I hope, my argument is also clear now. Like I pointed out earlier, verses 8 and 9 of Surah almumtahina are another proof of specific validity of not taking "them" as awliya. Although the verses are discussing that in context of mushrikeen, it is but logical to apply the same logic to ahli...

So far the linguistic discussion on the translation of alif-laam. Now, why are you expecting, that "these christians" can only be used for christians living in medina? The prophet was very well in contact with christians and the christians of states like Najran and Egypt were keenly following...

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh Please read the following article from this source, which addresses exactly the same issue with fixing the meaning of "alif laam". Meaning And Use Of The Article Al In Arabic Question I have heard Javed Ghamidi sahib explain that alif-laam in...

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh Yes, I can confirm, that after your last post, I have a better understanding of your stand. I do not agree with that and like I pointed out, I consider it to be conflicting with the rest of Quran but I can see, it is at least consistent in itself...

How come you can raise that question without addressing vereses 8 and 9 of Surah almumtahina. I have already given them as my proof of the specific applicability. Do you read my answers at all?

Please post more of him. He seems to be a rare voice among arabs, who are all becoming followers of saudi scholars.

Salam dear brother Hamid, I hope you understand now, that I am open to one or the other meaning of Wali, as long as its specific applicability is taken care of. Therefore, I have always stressed in my discussion with cabdixahim, that it's not me, who is against the meaning of wali he is...

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh, I thought it would be hard for you to understand the difference, when Quran is mentioning chaste women of ahli kitaab among all "the good things made lawful" in one verse and you are mentioning the chaste women of ahli kitaab together with carrion...

Salam dear brother Hamid, I have to thank you for your interest in the discussion. You also deserve a thank for your effort to resolve the matter between me and brother cabdixahim. I am afraid, you are not getting the complexity of the situation. Let me try once again. The overall mood of...

Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh Where have I said, I have not understood you? I have only asked you to take a clear position about the original post of this thread. Unfortunately, you have failed to take a clear position until now. EXACTLY. Then say that loudly and throw that...

salam dear brother Haimi The original discussion was started with a post quoting an article from answering christianity website. Recently, the discussion was revived by our christian sister Cariad. She pointed, that muslims are allowed to marry women from the people of the book, so how can...
