Why don't you verify that claim yourself? Study the Bhagvatgita and study the Quran then conclude for yourself which is the teaching that you believe. Religion is not a tradition, a culture or a heritage. You are a free human being who can and should make all her decisions herself. There is no cosmic law that says you have to follow your parents, community or culture. Follow your heart and mind.
:salam2:salaam,With all due respect you are very wrong akhi!you should also not quote the sentence out of context and make people intend what they did not!go take a look at what happened to families to which becoming Muslim was only meant for the sake of first days love euphoria and being together, the euphoria slows down after sometime if the faith doesn t bind, am sure you know what am talking about,go check what happens to the children afterward,we have thousands of them lost to kuffr...this can turn out to be very dramatic,destroying whole lives of sacrifices that is why we have to be wiser and take all the considerations and factors involved into account before uttering such categorical statements. If one becomes Muslims he must be completely conscious of what he is doing ,words are nothing if the heart doesn t follow.All your other suggestions should be beneficial inshallah,Peace TV is great.So one should NOT utter these words like.You can not revert because of your friend" etc.

Mostly (over 90%) of times this happened when a Muslim man married to a Christian/Jew woman in a non-Muslim country and then they got separated later. But these women didn't have to become Muslim to marry on the first place, so this theory doesn't apply. And it is mostly the fault of the man who was careless about his religion and family.go take a look at what happened to families to which becoming Muslim was only meant for the sake of first days love euphoria and being together, the euphoria slows down after sometime, am sure you know what am talking about,go check what happens to the children afterward,we have thousands of them lost to kuffr...
I totally agree. There cannot be two opinions about it.If one becomes Muslims he must be completely conscious of what he is doing ,words are nothing if the heart doesn t follow.
salaam i dont see anything disrespectful in what i said,i think you are giving more privilege to the form over the meaning ,although i dont believe that it needed such a categorical opposition,if put in the right context it smoothens itself quite a bit.Coffee is bitter without sugar you re right but it still keeps one awake,zina is no joke beloved brother... thanks for reminding me and all of us.jazakhallahu khair.:salam2:
Brother justoneofmillion I never said anything about you. I said we need to be careful in making statements which start like this. This is not encouraging and is not courteous to those who are asking questions.
A better way of saying this would be something like: "Sister a Muslim is by heart and not by some technicality of saying some key words. So please read Quran and study Islam and you will yourself feel to become Muslim".
. Not necessarily true, a lot did become Muslims to be introduced to the parents and are still becoming Muslims today,or they say they would become,please bear in mind that christian and Jew nowadays is generally something completely different to what it used to be then, under secular societies and the hype of consumerism we have totally different circumstances,oftentimes for Muslim parents marrying a modern day christian or a Jewish woman is a no go !If the woman doesn t become Muslim.You d say it s cultural yes it is,but i think that is one area where culture doesn t really contradict the context we are living in islamicaly(am open to correction).So it did not happen only for women that did not revert.But even then akhi a woman who doesn t believe with understanding why she reverted is as if she did not revert at all which turns the whole situation to be potentially in the same category of those 90% you mentioned .But these women didn't have to become Muslim to marry on the first place, so this theory doesn't apply
Then you must have added my thought to somebody elses post and put all your eggs in the same basket:lol:I totally agree. There cannot be two opinions about it.
NO need for that my brother it is just a matter of concepts.love you for the sake of allah swt.I think it s time to return the priority to the seeker at this point inshallah.I am sorry if I offended anyone.
