Biblical scholar James Tabor notes that Quranic depiction of Jesus is closer to the historical Jesus than the Bible. So much so that scholars postulate that Muhammad must have been in contact with eboinites, the earliest Jewish sect of Christian’s that died out in the 4th CE.

The Orthodox Muslim RESPONDS to Jake Brancatella's latest antics and says he's doing anti-Dawah 😲 "It's crazy. Some of these people are very soft with non Muslims but harsh when it comes to Muslims. They're picking fights with every Muslim. I don't get it."

@MMetaphysician And please don't accuse us of having "idols" just because we disagree with you and defend our brother against an enemy of Allah🤦

@enjoinhaqq I can do full video breakdown on the topic to educate you and your idol Libyano, but why should I waste my time when you won't take the constructive criticism and will keep whining?

The fact that you're such a lying pig isn't new. I said that exact opposite. Deedat and Naik have had a much greater impact than I ever will. That doesn't change the fact that most of their arguments suck and are outdated. Now, go back to platforming shirk apologists like Kanj.

@MMetaphysician You can, and that's what we'll love to see. Your earlier "criticism" was just three words "essentially hypostatic properties", which does not offer any insight. If you break it down and explain academically why he's wrong instead of "cooked" we'll appreciate that more than this.

@MMetaphysician If that's the case I apologise. Please address specific aspect he got "cooked" on essential-hypostatic properties conversation.

@enjoinhaqq What a ridiculous comment. How would you even know what I've watched? I watched that entire discussion.

On essential hypostatic properties...

@MMetaphysician @MMetaphysician you've also not seen any of his debates with Logic on full, how can you comment? And address this point thanks.

@MMetaphysician but Avery couldn't provide a grounding for hypostatic properties so arbitrarily introduced "essential hypostatic properties", whilst refusing to concede to brute necessity...which was Libyano's point...

How can God descend in the last third of every night when there is always night on Earth? In commenting on the Hadith about the sun's prostration beneath the throne, Ibn Taymiyya says: "If the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said that the sun prostrates beneath the Throne every night, this indicates that the sun’s state differs between night and day, even though its movement in its orbit remains constant and unchanged. This difference is relative in nature, meaning that the state of being 'beneath the Throne' itself does not change for the sun, for variation in relational qualities does not on its own alter the essence of what remains constant. In the same way, we can consider the Hadith of Descent (Nuzul), in which the Prophet ﷺ said: 'Our Lord descends to the lowest heaven in the last third of every night, saying: Who calls upon Me so that I may answer him? Who asks of Me so that I may give him? Who seeks My forgiveness so that I may forgive him?' This analogy of the sun's differing state (despite its constant motion) sheds light on the objection raised by Ibn Hazm and others regarding this narration. They argued: 'since the times of night differ from one region to another, with the beginning, middle, and end of the night occurring earlier in the east than in the west, then if God’s descent were the same descent known to humans, it would mean that He is constantly descending throughout the entire night, since it is always night somewhere on Earth.' They continued: 'Or He would be perpetually descending and ascending at the same time, which is contradictory.' But their objection is based on imagining God’s descent as being like that of a human being's, which is precisely what textbook anthropomorphism (Tashbih) looks like. They effectively liken Him to a limited, incapable creature, one unable to manage more than a single task at the same time. Yet it is authentically reported in many narrations that on the Day of Resurrection, God will judge all creation, and every person will see Him and converse with Him individually, without seeing Him turn toward anyone else. Likewise, the Prophet ﷺ said: “When a servant says, ‘Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds,’ Allah says, ‘My servant has praised Me.’ When he says, ‘The Most Gracious, the Most Merciful,’ Allah says, ‘My servant has exalted Me.’” Each person calls upon Him, and Allah, the Exalted, responds to each one of them, for He is never distracted by one matter from another. Similarly, Ibn 'Abbas was asked, “How will Allah judge all people at once?” He replied, “Just as He provides for them all at once.” And if even those who equate the mere created effects of God with the effects of creation have fallen into the same anthropomorphism as the Magian Qadariyyah (who assumed that since humans are culpable for the harmful effects of their actions, God would similarly be culpable if He were the creator of human actions), then what condemnation is severe enough for those who go further by equating His very actions and attributes (and not just their created effects) with those of creation?! To them, it is said: You know that the sun is a single body, moving in a steady and balanced motion that does not vary. Yet through this one motion, it rises for some and sets for others; it appears near to some and distant to others. For some, there is night; for others, there is day. Some experience winter while others experience summer; some feel heat while others feel cold. If, through one motion, the sun produces different and simultaneous effects (night and day, winter and summer) for different groups of people, then how can it be impossible for the Almighty, All-Powerful Creator to descend to His servants and call upon them in the last third of their nights, despite the differences between their times? Exalted is He; nothing distracts Him from anything else, nor does He need to descend to one group and then another. ...And to such people, as was said to al-Razi and others like him, we ask: Are the judgments of perception, imagination, and reason, which are used to understand physical realities, applicable to matters of the Divine? If you say yes, your own view collapses, for you affirm a Living, Knowing, Powerful Being who, according to your reasoning, neither moves nor rests, neither draws near nor distances Himself, and performs no act Himself; yet you still claim He is not incapable, limited, or prevented (which is impossible if He is subject to the same reasoning used to understand physical realities). If you say no (as in, if you say He is not subject to that same reasoning that applies to physical realities), then your reasoning cannot validly be used to deny the reality (haqiqah) of what the Truthful and Trustworthy one ﷺ said about the Creator (as in, since your reasoning is based on physical analogies like the sun's motion, it would be irrelevant to the Divine)." (Bayan Talbis al-Jahmiyyah, vol. 4, p. 54)

@NFTGALLERYNL @MMetaphysician Saying this as a habit after you hear the Qur'an is bid'ah, so avoid it. Barakallahu feek

@MMetaphysician Sadaqa Allah Al Azeem

وَمَنۡ أَعۡرَضَ عَن ذِكۡرِي فَإِنَّ لَهُۥ مَعِيشَةٗ ضَنكٗا وَنَحۡشُرُهُۥ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡقِيَٰمَةِ أَعۡمَىٰ [Surah Ṭā-Hā: 124] Sahih International: And whoever turns away from My remembrance - indeed, he will have a depressed [i.e., difficult] life, and We will gather [i.e., raise] him on the Day of Resurrection blind.

“Not everyone who recognizes the truth, whether by necessity or through reasoning, has the ability to advance an argument against his opponent that will guide him or decisively refute him. For the means by which a person comes to know the truth is one thing, and the means by which he conveys that truth to others is another. And not everything a person knows is something he can make known to others. For this reason, rational inquiry is broader in scope than debate: everything open to debate can be reflected upon, but not everything open to reflection can be debated with everyone.” Ibn Taymiyya, Averting the Conflict between Reason and Revelation

Having a PHD means absolutely nothing. I Just Witnessed a Catholic PHD candidate just got baked by a 22 year old Muslim. And Myself as a 23 year old layman muslim knows that this response he gave is heretical.

@sharghzadeh If paying rent forever = paying someone else's mortgage so you might asw do that...then stop paying taxes to your government funding the genocide with your money and might asw pay the Zionists directly. Miskeen, you won't ever win a war with Allah and His messenger ﷺ.

Modern fiat money is just a make-believe game; either pretend it's real and play to win, or be a loser who pays rent forever (which is just paying someone else's mortgage).

My Ustadh told me something one evening that completely shifted the way I viewed hardship. We were talking about setbacks - missed opportunities, closed doors, things that just didn't go our way. Someone had just shared how they didn't get into a job they're really passionate about. You could see the weight in their voice. Disappointment laced every word. That's when Ustadh said: "You know the story of Musa and Khidr?" We all nodded. He said: "Everyone loves the part where Khidr explains why he broke the boat, killed the boy, and rebuilt the wall. Because suddenly, the pain makes sense. The confusion becomes clarity. But do you realise something?" He paused. "Musa only got the explanation because it was a lesson. The people who owned the boat, the parents of that child, the town that rejected them-they never got told. They just had to live with what happened." The room was quiet. Then he said: "Sometimes in life, you don't get the Khidr moment. You don't get to find out why something happened. You just get the qadr. The closed door. The loss. The silence. And your test is whether you can still trust Allah without needing the explanation." He leaned forward and said: "It's easy to have sabr when the story wraps up neatly. But the real test is: Can you have tawakkul when you're still in the middle of the story?" I remember sitting with those words long after the class ended. Because we all wait for our Khidr moment, the point where everything makes sense. But sometimes, that moment doesn't come in this life. And still, we are asked to trust.

Don’t forget to make dua for: - the Muslims of Sudan - the Muslims of Palestine - the Uyghur muslims - the Muslims in Kashmir - the Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar - the guidance. prosperity and safeguarding of Muslim lands, those who live in them and those who rule over them - our loved ones who did not live to see this blessed day, as well as the loved ones of other Muslims who passed away - the entire ummah, as we find ourselves humiliated and in dire straits May Allah bless you all

Satanic atheist doesn't like the sajdah. Arrogance is the kufr of Iblees.

@RichardDawkins So it's not a leap of faith to believe all modern primates descended from squirrel-like creatures like Purgatorius or Plesiadapiformes? You preach events from 50 million years ago with the certainty of someone who witnessed them

@hijabecuore islamqa.info/en/answers/151… Summary Writing any words of the Quran or Hadiths, or the Names of Allah, on plaques or plates and the like is contrary to the teachings of the Messenger of Allah and the practice of the Companions and the leading scholars of the early generations.

I’ve heard people say hanging Quran verses on the wall is disliked but what about the names of Allah, or words like SubhanAllah, Bismillah, etc., is that allowed ?
