So your view is that I, as a Catholic, am going to hell? I too worship Allah or God as I call him, so why would I? Do you think that God does not know that I love him, and that just because I chose a different type of worship that he will send me to hell?

At the end of the day, God decides who enters heaven or hell.

Which does bring up an interesting question. Why do you think the wearing of a veil is called for by Islam? Is it to prevent skin cancer or do you think it might have something to do with beauty?


Is there, for eg., a Quranic explanation for this...or in a hadith?
 
The Qur'an tells to cover ourselves fully up to our wrists, except that which appears apparent. Most scholars would say that which appears apparent is the face. But I don't have much knowledge on that so dont take my word for it. Most women wear the veil because maybe they aren't comfortable showing their face. Some are more reserved and have more hayaa (i.e shyness) than others. And thats their choice.

Firstly, isn't it catholic belief that non-Christians all go to hell?

Secondly, you worship Jesus, who you think is God, but is actually a human. Therefore, by Islam standards, you have taken a partner with God.

Islamic belief is that God hasn't given you the right to worship Him how you wish, He wants you to worship Him in the way He ordered you to. By rejecting Islam you reject His commands.

ummm so how was islam practised in the 12th century?
i know muslims need to go back to how islam was practised and adhere to the Quran and sunnah only and not compromise our faith which is actually being what is done today. so yes we are worse today we need to go back and become more stricter and shun what is not in the religion.
had the muslims gone back to what true islam is, we would be the most advanced people atm.
like you said people like this rania woman interprets islam very differently to what it is (from the comments she said)

This is where you and millions of others are going wrong. 12th century (I mention 12th century because that was the turning point) islam was not strict and oppressive the way it is going today. It would not be the first civilization to lose what they had and become less advanced.

What? Strict and oppressive? Are you referring to the law aspects? Islam isn't even being implemented today!

I don't know what is so important about the 12th century, but for the record, we base Islam on how the prophet taught it, not based on something that happened in the 12th century.

Well if you don't know then it is best to educate yourself and avoid commenting on things that you are ignorant of.
 
Your telling us to learn about our own history? The Islam our Prophet(saw) and his companions (ra) followed is the real Islam. That's the only Islam that should be followed.

Up to the 12th century they did base it on the teachings. Today it is all wrong. It was distorted after the 12th century for political reasons.

Exactly. I agree 100%.

I don't need to know what happened in the 12th century to know that the current state of the Muslims is not what it is meant to be and that we have deviated from the teaching of Islam to a dangerous extent.

True, but it wouldn't hurt to educate yourself. If you knew what happened and what changes occured and why, you would have a better understanding. Education is never a bad thing.

The bible tells me not to judge and therefore, no I do not believe those who are non-Christian will go to hell, I believe those that do not worship God will go to hell

For some reason Muslims always want to say this, and I am not sure if this is something you have learned incorrectly or just overheard in another thread but I do not worship Jesus, I respect Jesus to a great extent being Gods only son. I worship God and only God, I just understand that God can show himself to us in many ways (the holy trinity).

Who says Islam is the right belief or that is the way God wishes you to worship? Only the Quran, the bible doesnt say that, do you not agree the bible also is the word of God? If you were brought up a devout Christian and decided to take that as the only word of God without question and without refuting it, is that your fault, that you trust in what you have learned and know?

To me God is God, no matter what you call him, and as long as you serve him in this life you will be rewarded in the next, no matter what your religion may be.
