Secrets hidden

I find it all fascinating! And I wasn't upset, don't worry!

the purpose of this thread is

allah alone
Know
Any person

In what to think

allah says in the Quran
34. Verily, Allah! With Him (Alone) is the knowledge of the Hour, He sends
down the rain, and knows that which is in the wombs. No person knows what he will earn tomorrow, and no person knows in what land he will die. Verily, Allah is All-Knower, All-Aware (of things).

59. And with Him are the keys of the Ghaib (all that is hidden), none
knows them but He. And He knows whatever there is in (or on) the earth and in the sea; not a leaf falls, but he knows it. There is not a grain in the darkness of the earth nor anything fresh or dry, but is written in a Clear Record.

60. It is He, Who takes your souls by night (when you are asleep), and has knowledge of all that you have done by day, then he raises (wakes) you up again that a term appointed (your life period) be fulfilled, then in the end unto Him will be your return. Then He will inform you what you used to do.

Well, it's only what most Christians believe about their God, after all.

Sparrows!

Pardon?

Sparrows falling to the ground and your Father knows! Consider also the lilies of the field!

Oh, yes!

Even before I became an atheist at 12, I used to wonder what was the point of god knowing when a sparrow fell if he still let it fall! I wouldn't have dared to ask the nuns, though, I would probably have got the strap.

What is really interesting is the power of the mind over the body. I remember one report of some students in America who were forcing a new student to take part in an initiation ceremony for a fraternity. They hooded him and told him they were going to decapitate him. Then they allowed a drop of icy water to fall on his neck and he died. Heart attack from fear?
I think they were prosecuted for involuntary manslaughter.

I am not sure the OP is necessarily Muslim. There have been some posts on other forum by people trying to stir up anti Islamic views. I guess this cold be one of those!
You could substitute God when it says Allah and find biblical quote to support the Judeo/Christian view that God is the only being that can see into the heat/mind of man!

IMO all tosh!

All the abrahamic religions are essentially the same. Same god, same proselytising. Sigh.

Oh well, if they must bore us with tales of their imaginary sky friend, so be it. Quoting all these references as if they are fact is laughable, whether it be the bible or the koran or whatever.

I used to find it quite amusing to talk to Jehovah's Witnesses. They would say 'It is in the Bible' and give me (literally) chapter and verse. When I replied 'But I don't believe in the bible, it is just a collection of man-made stories' they were completely flummoxed. Polite, though!

I was canvassing in a local election and knocked on the door of some JWs. They politely explained that they didn't vote so I suggested that they pray for me (what a hypocrite I was). When I looked at the numbers we took at the polling station, I realised that the husband had voted - not necessarily for me, of course. He was the nice man who serviced my washing machine. When I moved north and again stood for election, this time in a winnable seat, I met some other JWs and found them to be very stand-offish.

Thought for the day folks!

I think that counts as proselytizing.

It certainly counts as coming under "trying too hard"
