Indeed, as it's the Word of God so prostration is allowed. Just as you would do to the Kaaba, or towards it.
even though you ignored my last post, I'm still going to try 1 more time to do you a favour >Keep Away<
Excuse me? Confusing the heck out me. Punishment is that you have gone farther away from God. In human life, it is lot easier to be united with God, once you are re-incarnated as something other than a human, you have less chances of being united with God. Punishment is to the soul. Punishment is that your soul suffers because it's still separated from God. Not only that, it's further away from God.Well if one can't remember their 'previos life' anyway, then i don't really think it's much of a punishment.
In other words, you can't find out when and why Muslims started marrying their first cousin. But since it's not considered "norms" among rest of the Indians, it must be confined to Muslims only. Look at us. We are Punjabis as well. But we don't marry someone of same surname as us or someone from the same village.It's simple, something which isn't prohibited isn't forbidden.
I was telling them to stop talking to Sikhs about conversion for it is seen as offensive. But brother no one takes notice of me, some ignore me, while others swear at me. ---
. Yes I think your post became confusing because it was edited. I think besides being "disappointed one" as your 'user title' suggests, you are also a "misunderstood one". I know your intent is good but you are misunderstood because of the difference in environment we all grow up in. I sense that you feel close to Sikhs. If I am not mistaken you somewhere said that you were half Kashmiri and half Punjabi. If so, then you feel close to Sikhs for the obvious reasons. But you will find that people who grew up in completely different environment might not have the same views as you and most us did grow up in different environment than each other. So you shouldn't worry about it at all . It's all dependent on where people grow up.
Fi_Sabilillah can I just point out, you're asking such things as ''sati'' which is a hindu practice and NOT a sikh one. so lets not confuse hinduism with sikhism. or you're doing the work of the hindus.
] - it is praising our Creator, but there aren't exactly any laws, compared to all the previous prophets who recieved laws from Allaah.
Apparently, there are people who do remember their previous lives, but they are at the higher spiritual level than us. Every action, karma (good or bad) affects our soul negatively or positively. The state (condition) our soul is in today is based on previous karma. Soul doesn't have to remember our past lives. We simply act upon how the condition of our soul designs our personality. But since we also free will, we can also better ourselves by doing the good karma and we are capable of meditating upon God's name. So we do meditate on God's name and we are accepted by Him, we reach the next level.
But the nature does. It does tell us that if your have children within family, you kids are more likely to have genetic disorders. So people who do understand this will be careful. But as I understand there are some states in the US that do not allow marriage to first cousin.
When I say 'true Sikhi', I am referring to someone who happens to be a Sikh and has reached the next level of spirituality. Yes this is true that those who reached the next level of spirituality are much wiser than rest of us. So would you consider that someone wiser is better? It has nothing to do with what religious group they belong to. Obviously, there were people of Sufi background like Sheikh Farid who got to that level. There were people of Hindus background who reached that next level. So it has nothing at to do with what religious group you belong to, it can happen to anyone.
Well I have too much respect for Gurbani to post it here. But if want you can check it out for yourself. As described above, it doesn't contradict what I said previously.
I don't understand what sati is man. The thing is, you should know yourself that according to your religion - if the 10 Gurus really came as the previous messengers did - they called to the obedience of our Creator, and that none is worthy of worship except Him Alone.
We believe that Muhammad (peace be upon him) was the final Prophet of Allaah, and what we see in the Guru Granth Sahib [see the caps
Anyway take care.
I have acces to an english translation
and the believer doesn't mean someone who follows Islam. That's something you might think but that's not necessarily true. A believer is someone who follows the path of truth and s/he could belong to any religious group.
People are learning the truth with time. The truth is civilization. Now it does not mean what the society practices today is the whole truth. But people are learning more about truth. But some of the religions become obstacles and keep brainwashing people against the truth.
"True human" could be interpreted in many different ways. But when we refer to them as "true Sikhs", we know that these people are on the same path as those saints and gurus who writings are included in Guru Granth Sahib.
Believing in all of God's Messengers who called to the worship of God without associating no partners with Him.
And they will never be able to bring a shred of evidence for their claims.
22: 3. And among mankind is he who disputes concerning Allah, without knowledge, and follows every rebellious (disobedient to Allah) Shaitan (devil) (devoid of each and every kind of good).
4. For him (the devil) it is decreed that whosoever follows him, he will mislead him, and will drive him to the torment of the Fire.
I don't need any evidence, I know my Religion. If you have lost your religion, go out and look for it. After all, there can only one thing that is the Truth, everything that is not in accordance to it is false. So the same applies to you
Nice. I was probably a beetle in 'previous life' then :rollseyes
