VIEW ABOUT THE UN-ISLAMIC GATHERING

BELIEVER, are you Moslem? Moslem follows Quran. Indeed you can find Torah and Injeel in the Quran, but to all Moslems, our sole basis in our life is the hadith and Quran. Islam is not just a "religion" but is a way of life.

There are far too difference between Islam and Christianity. What we Moslem do during Haj time is not a man made tradition but it is stipulated in the Holy Quran and narrated in the Sunnah of the Prophet, while your Christmas, is a bid'ah itself in your own religion. You can�t find verses in the Bible telling you to celebrate Christmas.

If one is a Muslim that means simply that you are in submission to Allah (SWT). The messages we can read from the Quran are not just talking about the issues of Aqeedah ( belief such as Monotheism), the existing of Allah or the Resurrection Day, but also talks about law as well as moral principles and the Basic Islamic belief to which every Moslem must subscribe. Allah (SWT) said in the Quran what are the requirements to be a true Moslem in every sense of the word. If either a man or woman makes the choice not to do what was commanded by Allah then i could say that they are in rebellion against Allah (SWT). There is absolutely no complusion to be a Muslim; however, once a person makes that election there are standards that one must meet. Islam encourages its believer to inquire, ask question and know the truth and not reprimanding its follower to clarify things they don�t understand. Knowledge in Islam is so important, it is part of our faith and in fact knowledge comes first before belief, that is why we have to learn and ask before we accept else our faith will not be that strong.

Israfil, am sorry i piss you off. I never claim I am a Prophet. You can go back to all that I have written. I supported all my argument with either Hadith or verses from the Quran. I am not "senior member" like you and I am a "woman".

God has inspired within each soul the ability, although limited, to recognize truth from falsehood. Sin is what affects and lingers in the heart and what you hate for people to find out. And conscience is what tells the state of the heart of the individual, whether it is alive seeking the truth, or dead, filled with the desires of this worldly life. 

�He inspired it (the soul) to know its sin and its piety.� (Quran 91:8)

Listen to your conscience very carefully while reading what I have written about those festivities and start to contemplate. Remember this, as long as a person seeks righteousness, they will know when they have done something wrong through their conscience, even though they might find numerous ways to excuse themselves for what they are doing.  They would never like anyone to come to know of that thing, for they are ashamed of it. The Prophet said:

Shame is something which can prevent a person from committing evil. If you have no shame, then do as you please.� (Saheeh Bukhari)

 �But their hearts became hardened, and Satan made fair seeming to them that which they used to do.� (Quran 6:43)

So think this over. Do you want Allah to find you in that gathering? Do you wanna die in that state? Remember, death will come anytime without any notice. To respect our parents in Islam is paramount, but paramount as it is our devotion to Allah is above all those thing.....
