Assalaamu alaikum O’ Angel…… what a beautiful person you are. My previous ‘tantrum’ was (believe it or not) because I love you (& I so want you to believe in Allah, Glorified be the Most High).
Many of your comments were justified, & I would like use the attention (I drew toward you), to say to those I complained to, look at this fine example of a genuine & honest woman, if I ever saw a person who deserves to be Blessed, she is that person. Angel, may Allah (SWT) guide you, & shower you with Blessings of the greatest beauty (Insha Allah).
I guess, ummmm.....Thank you
I'm not sure why you need those people (the experts you have called) to help people ? And why should it be a battle because you believe in God (Allah) and they may not, which they may do believe in God but its not your conclusion or from you conclusion/result.
Why does science have to have a moral purpose ? Why does science have to have a God (in it) ? I do realise that people who doubt that God exist require proof but I believe that those who do believe need proof - why else are they believing in the existence of God ?
You believe in God, because you have proof, if you didn't, would you still believe then ?
I get the feeling those experts of yours may do believe in God but do not exactly believe in your results your evidence. (I am just guessing here I maybe wrong)
I don't know, maybe that's the price you need to pay. But you are holding back because of your own fear, whether right or wrong, its up to the individual to believe or not.
I'm still not sure what the Chief will do But anyway if you have a duty as a muslim to share the knowledge bestowed upon you then I think you need to overcome that fear of yours
Nadir, I read your PM and I accept your apology, but I believe I didn't exactly asked for help The only advice I have is to distingush between those you speak of, address to, it will make life little easier Edited by Angel |

I am with Deist that its not whether one believes in God or not and to try make one believe but what is out there, the evidence - proof or disproof. And I am not sure what this has to with Creation vs Chance Nadir, since you came in with your talk perhaps you can tell us what your talk has to do with creation vs chance ? I think somewhere along the line it got missed as nearly all has to do with that you have evidence for the existence of God Edited by Angel |

Assalaamu alaikum Firstly may I apologise for my error of leaving out a couple of sentences from the ‘No chance, it’s the Almighty’ piece I posted above. I realised my mistake (in transferring/typing the piece over) this morning, I have corrected it now, & it is hence complete. Angel, I fear you have missed the point….. “Why does science have to have moral purpose?” “Why does science have to have God (in it)?” The aim of science is to try & perceive the secrets of existence. If the very purpose of existence is to Worship Allah (SWT), & to live in accordance with His Moral Law (Islam), then God & Morality play an essential role not only within science, but also in life as a whole. “And I (Allah) created not the Jinn and mankind except that they should worship Me (Alone)” [Surah 52, Verse 56] “You believe in God, because you have proof, if you didn't, would you still believe then?” Initially I perceived the nirvana of morality, sound belief in a Creator of the Heavens & the Earth came later. Although admittedly I was unsure how to live my life in accordance with true morality (Islam), hence evidence of a supreme being served to strengthen my faith. “I get the feeling those experts of yours may do believe in God but do not exactly believe in your results your evidence. (I am just guessing here I maybe wrong)” If that is the case, aren’t they the foolish ones, seen as though they have not seen my evidence/results. If they have already made a conclusion, does that mean they profess to know the Unseen? “I don’t know, maybe that’s the price you need to pay. But you are holding back because of your own fear, whether right or wrong, it’s up to the individual to believe or not.” True, but I really need to discuss (important) issues with people of wisdom, before I start spurting out knowledge that may help those, I do not wish to help. “I am with Deist that its not whether one believes in God or not and to try make one believe but what is out there, the evidence - proof or disproof. And I am not sure what this has to with Creation vs Chance” “Nadir, since you came in with your talk perhaps you can tell us what your talk has to do with creation vs chance? I think somewhere along the line it got missed as nearly all has to do with that you have evidence for the existence of God” I am not sure what you mean by “I am with Deist..…” Does that mean you support Darwin’s theory of evolution? If I may enlighten you with regards to evolution, and REAL chance/choice… If you were to believe Darwin’s theory, then the thing we call LOVE, is simply a genetically inherited trait, which has been passed down through the genes, as it enhances the chance of human survival. Hence in Darwinian terms there is less choice than in Creationism, as it least in Creationism - LOVE - is a real emotion, which we are free to give (& accept) to whom we please. Darwin’s theory suggests that, LOVE is merely genetic instinct, of which we have no control! If I may share a hadith with you (may not be the best English – Arabic translation of the hadith, but the main point is still clear)….. Sayyidina Huzayfah (RA) has said that the Messeger of Allah (SWT) said: “As for the things that Dajjal will have, I know them better than Dajjal. He will have two rivers, one of which will seem to the onlooker as a blazing fire and the other white water. Any of you who encounters it, should shut (his/her) eyes and drink water from the river which seems to be a fire, because (in fact) it is cool water, and he/she should keep himself away from the other river because it is torment…. “ With regards to your statement: “…that its not whether one believes in God or not, & to try and make one believe, but it’s what is out there, the evidence – proof or disproof.” Again I stress the I have the scientific proof, although If I may also share with you a passage from the Holy Qur’an, with regards to - trying to make people believe….. “And had your Lord willed, those on earth would have believed, all of them together. So will you then compel mankind, until they become believers.” [Surah 10, Verse 99] Wasalaam nadir |

The aim of science is to try & perceive the secrets of existence. As much as I believe that - I believe it (science) is much more than that. And I've come to know that its not the scientists job to prove or disprove God. There are scientists who believe in God's existence and there are scientists that don't. I don't believe I missunderstood when I posed those 2 questions of mine. I don't believe science is there to prove morality or not, partly why I asked why does science have to have moral purpose ? “Why does science have to have God (in it)?”
But Nadir, you are coming from Islam! Not everyone believes the purpose of existence is to worship Allah/God. And not everyone believes in Islam whether they are scientists or not. (Not that should shut the door on some knowledge islam may offer). “You believe in God, because you have proof, if you didn't, would you still believe then?”
See I was right your evidence is Islam ;-))) Many people don't need islam for proof of God. And I certainly believe that islam does not equal morality, others have morality too. “I get the feeling those experts of yours may do believe in God but do not exactly believe in your results your evidence. (I am just guessing here I maybe wrong)”
{{You do realise this is all presumptions of us here ;-) so nothing is probably truth?}} Why are they foolish because they have different result/evidence to believe in God from you ? "If they have already made a conclusion, does that mean they profess to know the Unseen?" No of course not, as I said earlier its not their job. Believing in God is somewhat a personally issue. I believe in God and have a few things that go with it but it does not make me know the unseen. Do you profess to know the unseen ? “I am with Deist that its not whether one believes in God or not and to try make one believe but what is out there, the evidence - proof or disproof. And I am not sure what this has to with Creation vs Chance” “Nadir, since you came in with your talk perhaps you can tell us what your talk has to do with creation vs chance? I think somewhere along the line it got missed as nearly all has to do with that you have evidence for the existence of God”
Where did Darwin come into this What I mean is that I agree with Deist when he mentioned its not whether one believes or not in God - even though he spoke about himself. I'm not sure what Darwin has to do with it?
Again I stress the I have the scientific proof, although If I may also share with you a passage from the Holy Qur’an, with regards to - trying to make people believe…..
I don't believe in it. But anyway isn't there a verse that mentions Allah guides whom he wills, so really even if you share your knowledge, isn't it up to Allah?
I still stand by my statement thou. Nadir, since you came in with your talk perhaps you can tell us what your talk has to do with creation vs chance? I think somewhere along the line it got missed as nearly all has to do with that you have evidence for the existence of God |

If you were to believe
This perhaps requires a new thread.

Greetings Angel Angel stated: “I don't believe in it. But anyway isn't there a verse that mentions Allah guides whom he wills, so really even if you share your knowledge, isn't it up to Allah?” “Verily, you (O Muhammad [SAW]) guide not whom you like, but Allah (SWT) guides whom He wills. And He knows best those who are the guided.” [Holy Qur’an: Surah 28; Verse 56] “And We have sent to you (O Muhammad [SAW]) Ruh (a revelation, and a mercy) of Our Command. You knew not what is the Book, nor what is Faith. But We have made it (this Qur’an) a light wherewith We guide whosoever of Our slaves We will. And verily, you (O Muhammad [SAW]) are indeed guiding to the Straight Path (ie Allah’s religion of Islamic Monotheism).” [Holy Qur’an: Surah 42; Verse 52] Angel stated: “See I was right your evidence is Islam ;-)))” “Many people don't need islam for proof of God.” “And I certainly believe that islam does not equal morality, others have morality too.”

If you want to leave, I can't stop you but No, you're not wasting your time. |

Greetings Angel, I just wanted to say that I hold nothing against you… It seems I am the wrong person to be answering your (previous) questions (in this thread), if you still require an answer(s), I suggest you seek the advice of someone whom God has favoured….. |
