Q: Is Quran wrongly interpreted?

The crocodile hunterHow can Muslim interpret Quran right when they think it is the only truth of God and when their entire belief rest of the fact that Quran is right.

 
yeah, the old version was definitely better than the current one.
it just needed a bit more work to clarify exactly what is being asked.
 
ok it is rolled back

Q: What should a muslim do if his child does not respect the faith

Muhammed JWhat is the appropriate punishment in the Qur'an for a child who deliberately disobeys his or her parents and refuses to fulfill their duty to Allah(swt)?

Why this question is closed. It is a very legitimate issue?
 
3:40 PM
Asalam Alaikum
@Thecrocodilehunter well the reason is in the close explanation, "As it currently stands, this question is not a good fit for our Q&A format. We expect answers to be supported by facts, references, or specific expertise, but this question will likely solicit debate, arguments, polling, or extended discussion."
 
@Thecrocodilehunter well IMO that questions seems a bit too broad
 
3:57 PM
@Ashu Asalam Alaikum
 
@AlUmmat wa `alaykumu s-salāmu wa rahmatu l-lāhi wa barakātuh
 
how are you today?
 
im bored
nothing new on this site
 
I know
we've got quit a few members, perhaps they will Insha'Allah get more activity to the site
 
4:15 PM
@AlUmmat yes the users do have come up ... what you say should happen Insha Allah
 
If the site views go up than that would be a good sign too
but it just takes time, a child does not grow up over night
 
yes you are right
views are still stagnant
Questions/Day has fallen greatly
(it was about 16-17)
 
well like I said it will take time, but it will also take work, a runner can not run if he does not work
 
but in our case we are getting no place to run !!!
 
sometimes one has to take time to build a place to run, and then run
 
4:21 PM
hehe yeah
 
@Ashu what happened to your publicity flyer
i really liked it
 
@Ansari nobody seems to pay attention to it
nobody gave feedback
so i left it
 
oh
no i thought it was a great idea
 
thanks for likin it though
 
i suggest you finish it off and make a meta post
 
4:25 PM
I did not hear about this
 
it was a short and simple flyer
 
can I perhaps see it?
 
no extraneous details
then people can email it to their groups

Only a comment :)
 
@yasar11732 I agree with you totally, but I would not close them for being off topic.
 
6:42 PM
Only down vote than?
 
well it can be closed, but I really do think that down vote is better
as goldPseudo keeps saying
the bad questions and answers go to the bottom and the good ones go to the top
great question @yasar11732 :)
I love it

Q: Can I listen to Qur'an when going to sleep?

yasar11732Is it permissible to listen to Qur'an recitation from headphones (using mp3 player, or cell phone etc.) when we are laying on the bed trying to sleep or is it disrespectful to Qur'an?

 
:P Thanks
 
7:06 PM
@yasar11732 I hope my answer is good, give me feedback :)
 
7:19 PM
@AlUmmat You say "it is okay as long as you pay attention and listen to it."
But it is hard to do that when you are laying down to sleep
You may fall asleep while listening to Qur'an.
I guess in that case it is disrespectfull?
 
@yasar11732 well there is a hanafi ruling that says you must pay attention to it
so you could say yes it is disrespectful according to the Hanafi school
 
Hmm, in that case, I guess you can't listen while you are going to sleep.
 
but I do not recall any hadiths saying that it is disrespectful
I do remember the story of the man who read the Qur'an and the Angels came down, in the story the mans son is sleeping
 
so, did angels wake him up?
 
I mean if you do fall asleep than all that would happen is that you miss out on the reward, that is my thinking
@yasar11732 no the man stoped because the Angels were freaking the horse out, and the man was worried that the horse might hurt his son
this was back in the Prophets day
you see
@yasar11732 I edited my answer and added some more text, does it seem clear to you?
I mean do you understand it?
 
7:34 PM
Hmm, ok I understand what you are saying. As long as I pay attention, it is no problem.
So, if I think I might fall asleep, I shouldn't listen?
Do you know what Mujawwad and Warsh mean?
 
If you feel that you are going to fall asleep than it would be wise to turn it off
@yasar11732 Warsh is one of the Qira'aats
@yasar11732 Mujawwad means the recitation of the Qur'an in Tajweed
 
for these advice or fatwa seeking questions it may be better to look for scholarly ruling on it
and point or refer to that
(sorry to be buzzkill - just thought the conversation was veering toward issuing rulings)
 
Asalam Alaikum @Ansari
please always remember to give the salams
@Ansari no need to apologize
:)

Can I listen to Qur'an when going to sleep? http://islam.stackexchange.com/questions/1524/can-i-listen-to-quran-when-going-to-sleep?atw=1 #quran
 
@Ansari Do you know any ruling about this?
 
wa'alaikum ussalam warahmatullah
heh you're right
@yasar11732 i cannot recall a concrete ruling off the top of my head
sorry
i have heard both sides
i fail to recall which was the stronger opinion
but others are free to do the research and find the opinions and their evidences and post
i'm fine with that - just uncomfortable with one of us saying "this is OK" or "i think it should be alright" rather than "this is the opinion of so-and-so and here is their evidence"
(not to say that i don't fall into that at times as well - just up to one of you to correct me in that case :) )
 
@Ansari You bet we will :)
 
yes :)

@Ansari What do you think about this:

Hmm, if I should pay attention while listening to Qur'an, does it mean I shouldn't listen to it while doing other jobs? For example, reading something on the internet, while Qur'an playing on other tab?
 
@yasar11732 was that to me or Ansari, or to all of us?
 
all of you :)
 
ok well I have no citations
but I do know that if you read another book while the Qur'an is being recited
than that is disrespectful
so it doesn't have to be reading a book it can be reading anything while the Qur'an is being recited
I have no citations
Is anyone familiar with this opinion? @Ansari?
do you have any citations for this?
what do you guys think of this quetsion

Q: Why full ablution is too important for Muslims?

ZeynebWhen I asked the reason why tattos are haram to my dear Muslim preacher, they said me that if a Muslim get tattoo her or him full ablution will not be accepted. I don't understand there is a bathroom, soup and water and people can be clean with taking shower so what is the importance of full ablu...

I think it is a general reference question.
It wouldn't be too hard to answer it.

Hmm, ok.
 
Hello/ Asalam Alaikum @user1151143
how are you today?
fine I hope
 
@AlUmmat I think he is away.
 
ok
 
9:56 PM
I have a question but I am not sure if it would provoke debate :/
 
@yasar11732 well, when in doubt ask ether here or on the meta
ask about it I mean
 
How does this sound -> "Can a Muslim not belong to any sect?"
 
not the question itself
@yasar11732 well that is a very good question
and it is on topic
 
Yes, but I am afraid it could provoke sectarianist debate
 
but I have a feeling that it may get different opinions
I do not think that it is debates that should be worried about, I mean it might spark a debate but I am very sure that it will get many different views
 
10:01 PM
I will wait until I hear what our moderators thinks about this.
 
all seem very good
ok
 
@Ansari @goldPseudo are you here?
 
assalaamu 'alaykum
 
@goldPseudo Wa Alaikum Salam
@goldPseudo Did you read above discussion?
 
@goldPseudo wa Alaikum salam
 
10:06 PM
the question seems fine.
but it would need to be worded properly to avoid argumentation.
 
@goldPseudo I was thinking about it too, but the title above is all I have to ask :/ Not sure what to write in body.
By the way, things like hanafi/maliki vs. counts as sects too, or is there a different name for that?
 
madhab. schools.
 
Ok, I better have 2 different questions for each of sect and madhab.
I suppose there would be different anwers
 
@yasar11732 Madhabs (schools) are within the sects

Q: Can a Muslim not belong to any sect?

yasar11732Is it possible for a Muslim to not identify himself/herself belonging to any sects? If so, how does s/he chose what to believe on the controversial (different sects have different opinions) topics.

How is it?
 
10:20 PM
looks okay. i may take a stab at answering that one myself, God willing.
 
10:30 PM
@yasar11732 do you like the answer to your question about the wisdom of circular movement?
 
I am not sure if I am satisfied with that answer, but it is still good.
Why did you ask?
 
I wanted to know the asker's opinion
 
10:45 PM
I wish there were some sufi practitioners around :)
 
well i am not a practitioner but I do study Sufism
 
Ohh, Cool. I didn't know.
 
I know, i didn't tell anyone :)

Q: What should a muslim do if his child does not respect the faith

Muhammed JWhat is the appropriate punishment in the Qur'an for a child who deliberately disobeys his or her parents and refuses to fulfill their duty to Allah(swt)?

Can't it be answer according to Islam?
aren't there verses that are related to the subject, if children become disobedient, how can you address the issue
 
the original version of that question was very controversially worded.
that's when most of the close votes went through.
 
IC
because there are verses how to decipline your wife
I am sure there will be something related to kids
do you think it can be opened?
It is really important for those people who live in the west and their kids go out of control
