Have you tried "Happy Cow"?
Spade my friend
A little story based upon one womens work in a terminal ward in my home Prov.

She worked this ward off and on for a number of years - she never saw one dyed in the wool avowed atheist ever die - These people she knew from her youth - strong believers in no God -

Every single one when at deaths door asked for God's help - When you think about it - say as a gamble - either their is nothing or possibly there is - were they gambling or what?

Myself as you know I do believe - If I am wrong, so what - if i am right - then i find out - regardless I do find the teachings of Jesus and the really big 10 and i ain't talking football, to be helpful - though I do not adhere to all as you can tell from some of my posts to certain posters - I am prepared to be judged on that - the other ones are pretty easy.

Just my uninformed opinion.

Consequences of corrupting the mosque

The transgression on the Aqsa mosque at Jerusalem where God's name is mentioned with praise and glorification; even though in another language: the Arabic.

How dare Jews and Zionists try to demolish it or transgress on it? If they claim love God and obey His commandments, then how do they transgress on His house?

Is God reviled in the Aqsa mosque, or is He glorified ? So what is their plea in justifying the transgression on it?


(And who can be more unjust than he who forbids God's places of worship [lit. the mosques of God] lest His name should be mentioned therein, and strives to ruin them? [It means: none is more wrong-doer than such one]

These should never be allowed to enter them except with fear.

Theirs in [the life of] the World is ignominy, and theirs in the afterlife is a great torment.)



The above between brackets is the explanation of the Quran aya 2: 114

وَمَنْ أَظْلَمُ مِمَّن مَّنَعَ مَسَاجِدَ اللّهِ أَن يُذْكَرَ فِيهَا اسْمُهُ وَسَعَى فِي خَرَابِهَا أُوْلَئِكَ مَا كَانَ لَهُمْ أَن يَدْخُلُوهَا إِلاَّ خَآئِفِينَ لهُمْ فِي الدُّنْيَا خِزْيٌ وَلَهُمْ فِي الآخِرَةِ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ

Israelites have built a high wall surrounding Jerusalem, then they forbade a large number of Muslims visiting their holy mosque, then they now plot to ruin it to build their temple in stead of it; in addition to building their houses in the city of Jerusalem in spite of the condemnation of this act.

Transgression on the Aqsa mosque and its golden Dome of the Rock, will hasten the inevitable end of Israel according to the prophecy in the Quran 17: 3-8

Are the Jews not among the Ahlal-Kitab? If so, should the Jews not be allowed to pray in the Al-Aqsa mosque?

As for Zionists, that's another matter, but I'm talking about Jews here.

And in the end, do you worship the mosque or god?

Anyone not muslim is an infidel aint that right eanassir?

Aint that right your people havent got the slightest clue about tolerance, aint that right

Actually, the Qur'an explicitly guarantees protection for Jews and Christians. It's just that few Muslims read the Qur'an anymore.

Here's another thing to think about, Eanassir. Imagine that the Israle government did indeed destroy the physical al-Aqsa mosque, yet the 'Umma chose not to allow that action to corrupt the mosque of their hearts, and they remained friendly towards the Jews, do you not think that this would attract much support, and more curiosity about Islam, and maybe even converts?

Did the Qur'an not say that God always tests his servants? If so, could the destruction of the Al-Aqsa mosque not be sucha test?

I've read the Qur'an a number of times, but it seems we've read two different books, you and I.

The Aqsa mosque is the same old house of God built by David then was renewed by Muslims

The mosque is not the house of people; it is the house of God in which He is worshipped and His name is glorified and the prayer to God is established there.

Moreover, the Aqsa mosque is the third of three mosques sacred in the Islam, to which believers want to visit and make prayers there because the prayer in these mosques is preferred to other places.

Therefore, it is not up to anyone, whatever this one may be, to say such words to substitute the holy mosque with another in another site.

In addition, the place where David prayed is sacred to Muslims also, and David did not build the holy house of God but only according to God's commands,

So what God commanded that His house there should be observed, and the Aqsa is the renewal of the old mosque built by David and his son Solomon, then was corrupted by Nabuchodonsor and was rebuilt then corrupted by the Romans and then was renewed and rebuilt by Muslims.

So the Aqsa mosque is the same old House of God at Jerusalem built by David then renewed by Muslims; therefore, there is no need that Jews and Zionists try to destroy it and build another; because it is the same one which was rebuilt by Muslims.

Moreover, God ordered the followers of all the old religions to convert to the new religion of the Islam and to follow the Quran, and they shouls obey God's commands in the Quran to sanctify His houses of worship: the mosques.

Therefore, their design to destroy the Aqsa mosque is not ordered by God but by their devils; and such act will hasten their inevitable omenous destiny.

The night journey of Prophet Mohammed from Mecca to Jerusalem

Prophet Mohammed - salam be to him - was taken into a night journey from Mecca to Jerusalem; it was a spiritual journey or trip: with the spiritual souls, not with his material body.

Actually he was taken into such a journey by night; because the soul or the spirit is annoyed by the noise, and avoids the light, specially the sun-light.

For this reason, he went into his travel at night; because people were sleeping, sounds were low, movements were calm and the sun had set off; so that the time was suitable for his journey from Mecca to Jerusalem.

Therefore, his ethereal soul ascended to the heaven; while his body remained sleeping in his bed; for it is mentioned in a book called 'The Ascension' that the prophet – salam be to him – went with Gabriel [from Mecca] to Jerusalem, and there he met the prophets, greeted them and led them in prayer at Jerusalem.


The ascension of Prophet Mohammed to the ethereal heavens: the kingdom of heavens:

Then, from the holy house of God at Jerusalem, he ascended to the heavens together with Gabriel, and led the angels in prayer in each heaven, till he reached the seventh heaven.

So while the prophets went, by their death, from the material world to the ethereal world, and they became ethereal souls; and souls cannot be seen by the alive beings.

In addition to that, angels are ethereal creatures whom people cannot see save under certain conditions. Thirdly, man cannot ascend to heaven with his material body. For this reason, the 'ascension' took place at night.

Moreover, it is narrated from Aisha, mother of the believers, [the wife of the prophet] that she said:
"By God, the body of God's messengers, peace be on him, did not go, but only he ascended with his spirit."

It is also narrated from Muawiah, a similar tradition.

A building is a building. People can worship their gods and faeries anywhere. But it is wrong to damage someone else's property.
