    Questions about Islam (OP)


    So this is going to be my little thread about Islam.

    If you are not a new member you know I have been jumping in and out of religions.

    But now since people have told me come back and what not, I have decided to "consider it". So I am ok with becoming Muslim. But, I do not believe in everything within it. So can someone be Muslim but not believe in everything?

    Also what if I become Muslim but do not do the daily Fardh acts, Hajj and Ramadhan. What is my destiny?

    And this is a place for people to learn, music is not part of the religion so you shouldnt post it on a Islamic forum

    Salam friend. If you dont do Fardhes you become a sinner but if you reject them you become a disbeliever. You know there are 5 pillars of Islam and 6 pillars of Iman. You must accept and believe them to be a muslim. Belief in the prophets is a part of Iman. So if you dont believe in the prophets you dont have Imanand if you dont have a Iman you are not a muslim.

    So what is so hard to believe in the prophets?

    Re: Questions about Islam

    @StrivingforDeen Why don't you basically come and visit a mosque? If you live in Finland, I could recommend you a couple scholars for example, if you're interested.

    I think the discussions there will be more fruitful as many of us members aren't knowledgeable enough to advice you here, and to be honest I find some of the comments here pretty non-relevant. Whether you listen to music or not doesn't matter to me. It's important to know priorities. In light of the Hereafter what is important now is your relationship with God and maintaining that. That you understand why prophets are sent, what our purpose in life is, what we should do in this life etc,

    Masjid is like 10KM away.

    Why would I go there anyways.

    Re: Questions about Islam

    @asiya, to say that music doesnt matter is not right.

    Music has a big effect on a person and does lead them astray, causing hypocrisy as well as hardening the heart and making it resistant to receiving guidance. Any scholar will clarify that.

    "And of mankind is he who purchases idle talks (i.e. music, singing, etc.) to mislead (men) from the Path of Allah without knowledge, and takes it (the Path of Allah, the Verses of the Qur'aan) by way of mockery. For such there will be a humiliating torment (in the Hell-fire)." - Qur'an.

    Sister, didn't our Prophet SAAS instruct us to invite people to believe in one God first, then to tell them that Allah has commanded them to pray and then...?

    There are priorities. Music is a small matter in light of other things like Aqeedah. Besides there is a debate among scholars in this matter. So let us not argue over issues that should be addressed by people with scholarly knowledge.

    Re: Questions about Islam

    I wonder if there's a chance for me to see heaven. I used to believe that I will go to hell when I was younger. Now it might be becoming true. I have no promises. Hope the Lord treats me with mercy.

    You can keep wondering but for an apostate to see paradise, that's never gonna happen. Sorry to burst your bubble.

    Turn back while you can.

    Yeah. Maybe what ever I had said during younger made me really at some point believe I am going to hell and then I left Islam.

    Why did you think you would go to hell? Who taught you about hell/heaven?
