Divorce In Islam

[Faith Hope Charity]

Hi again :)

Yes we also do respect your faith, but we don’t agree with it. that is just fair.

I can totally live with that!

<b>You blow my mind</b>… all Christians whom I met (<b>including catholic priests</b>) wholeheartedly believe that every <b>word, comma and full stop </b> in the Bible were inspired by God. Paul also said that <b>all scriptures were inspired by God</b>, <b>INCLUDING THE IDEA OF DIVORCE</b>. Otherwise, <b>this part of the Bible should be thrown out if it was not inspired by God and it was only man made idea.
</b>

Haha! You make me laugh! Wael, you're so cute!


Catechism 105: <i>God is the author of Sacred Scripture.</i>


I wholeheartedly believe that ALL Scripture is inspired! BUT God did not interfere with His people's free will & dictate their actions, words, deeds, thoughts & intentions. It was not God's will that Pontius Pilate condemn Jesus. It was not God's will that the Israelites live in captivity. It was not God's will that King David pursue Bethsheba. It was not God's will that Thomas doubt Jesus... & last but not least... God did not will Moses to legalize divorce!


Did God want the account of all these incidents to be in the Bible? Indeed! God inspired the human authors to write what they wrote, but he did not inspire the people to do what they did!

But the Almighty God should have a solution all of our problems, and we are talking about serious problem here.
But in practice this is not the case, oh man, how I wish that you visit Philippines one day, it is the living example of how separation is totally evil.

Wael, I encourage you to read Jesus' Sermon on the Mount (Beatitudes) which reflect the meaning of the Commandments (St Matthew, chapter 5).


Both Islam & Christianity pose a solution to the problem. Unfortunately, they don't match up! If divorce prevents Muslims from falling into sin then I'm happy for Islam to keep its doctrine as it is. Protestant Christians also allow divorce (I'm not too sure about Orthodox though). As for Catholics who whinge & whine about the magisterium's teachings, please tell them that the only Person who can change the law on divorce is the Person who implemented it in the first place... Jesus Christ! No Catholic Pope will ever alter the Church's teaching on matters of faith & morals because the Holy Spirit who guides the Catholic Church will never allow the spotless Bride of Christ to contradict the Word of God. If a Catholic divorces his/her spouse & remarries, he/she has committed adultery. Like it or not! There is one God & He's not currently residing in the Philippines.


Happy Eid al-Adha, my friend!
