Why Is Wine haraam Now and not "Bacl Then"

[Proud.Hijaabi]

What is "Bacl Then" ?.

Sorry, I wanted to edit but I couldn't. Haha it's actually "Back Then" accidently pressed "l"

Does anyone know the reasons for why wine became haraam later on rather than in the past? When was it made haraam? (During which Prophets time?) Was it always haraam or am I making the right assumption?

The Makki verses (i.e. verses revealed in Makkah) were mainly about tawheed in order to attach the peoples hearts to Allah and because the Muslims were very, very small in number. Once the Prophet :saws1: migrated to Madinah the verses of prohibition and law were revealed because the Muslims were not only large in number but able to practice their religion freely.

Jannah is the World to Come isn't it? It sounds like the Hebrew word Gan (for Gan Eden). I'm looking on Wikipedia now, and your word for Hell in Jahannam. Similar to our Gehinom. Our languages are very similar, and there are not too many differences in our faiths either.

Indeed they are very similar, during the Islamic reign of Spain/Andalusia I've read that the muslims helped the jews a great deal to understand strange hebrew words using the help of the arabic language.
I've heard that the Israelis speak yiddish which is not the same as the original hebrew, is that true?

No, Israelis speak Hebrew. Yiddish is only spoken by the very religious or older Israelis who came from Europe. The Hebrew of the Torah is not like the spoken Hebrew of today. Today we mix it with Arabic and English. And yes, under the Islamic empire, Europe advanced in science and medicine faster than ever.
