Why Convert?

[radiyah]

ronniv93, I would like to welcome u here, and I hope that u will like your stay, and don't go, u don't have to revert to stay as sister Muslimah said , so welcome and keep asking and by Will of Allah we will answer what we know

I don’t quite understand this statement. Can you please clarify what you meant here by "concept of confession"?

As I know that christians go to the priest to confess of sins that they've done, the priest will take a sum of money, and then he will tell that confessing person finish your sins are forgivin. right or not?


In Islam, we do not go to priests, our relation is totaly between us and Allah(GOD), we confess to Him we seek aid in Him, we ask His Forgivness, we Worship non but Him, one God ronni not 3.


In Islam, there is self respect to a human being, self respect to his brains, forgive me, I am not accusing u of anything, but the right intelctual thinking will lead me where? Imagine a house with 2 fathers, or a car with 2 drivers, or a ship or plain with 2 captains


or a country with 2 leaders, then they will fight together who will lead and who is best and who is better, then there will be chaos killing and destruction everywhere. Then Imagine what will happen to the universe if there is more than one GOD, will it be stable, will it still run smoothly and so systimatically, no it won't . Now let us forget about bible being corrupted or what u r saying about the Quran, we will come to that later, just think on what I said before, we submit only to Allah, we confess only to Him, we cry only to Him, we ask only His forgivness, and our scholars do not seek worldly gains or ask for money or even ask us to confess to them, because they know that they do not dare give themselves that right, it is only He Allah The One God Who Has the right to forgive, because he is our Creator, our souls are in His Hand, and not in the hand of a mere human being, who is a pope, to give himself the right that my sins are forgiven and that he has the key for me to enter the heavens. No 1 has that right except he one who created u and me ronni, and that is Allah.


I know I repeated myself, but this is the begining that must be stressed on, God's onness.


And ronni beleive me the Quran never changed, when u want to know if it changed u ask us arab muslims, and about ulum Al-quran, u must understand what it is before u read it especially if that science is translated in english, sometimes things might not be clear to u because u do not understand the concept of that science, so why don't u start again with us bit by bit, ask ur questions and we will answer by will of Allah.


and sorry for my long post


take care ronni and welcome again to the board and enjoy your stay


Peace
