Answer 1

Obviously you converted to Islam without any knowledge of Islam!

Insha'Allah, Muslims, according to the Holy Qur'an and the Sunnah al Hadiths, pray five times each day, at specific times and they worship in a masjid or mosque.

Sadly, you remind this one of the Christians who know nothing about the development of the faith they profess to believe in and follow.

When did you make your shahada or profession of faith  and who witenessed it?  Perhpas that person can assist you in learning aobut your "new faith".

As salaamu 'alaikym warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.

Answer 2

Tell your parents God is not the righteous god they worship and that a man need not be perfect to be joined to him.

Explain that the serpent in the garden was right and that the righteous God of Abraham is not righteous and has agreed with the serpent.

Sin no longer equals death but a man can earn his way to paradise by doing more good than bad.

Tell them that Jesus of the Bible was and is a liar and that you have no need of a savior that God has decided to allow you to earn salvation and God is not a righteous God but he will overlook your sin.

Tell your parents that Allah has deceived them to believe a lie that Jesus was crucified and that the Christ of the Bible is a liar and there is no need for him to shed his flesh for the salvation of the world.

Answer 3

You don't know anything about Islam... but you became a Muslim...

Answer 8

man what u mean shia muslim ?? u should just be muslim ... fear God..

1.   Muslims Should be United

It is a fact that Muslims today, are divided amongst themselves. The tragedy is that such divisions are not endorsed by Islam at all. Islam believes in fostering unity amongst its followers.

    The Glorious Qur’an says:

    "And hold fast,

    All together, by the rope

    Which Allah (stretches out for you),

    and be not divided among yourselves;"

                    [Al-Qur’an 3:103]

Which is the rope of Allah that is being referred to in this verse? It is the Glorious Qur’an. The Glorious Qur’an is the rope of Allah which all Muslims should hold fast together. There is double emphasis in this verse. Besides saying ‘hold fast all together’ it also says, ‘be not divided’.

Qur’an further says,

"Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger"

                [Al-Qur’an 4:59]

All the Muslim should follow the Qur’an and authentic Ahadith and be not divided among themselves.

2.   It is Prohibited to make sects and divisions in Islam

The Glorious Qur’an says:

"As for those who divide

Their religion and break up

Into sects, thou hast

No part in them in the least:

Their affair is with Allah:

He will in the end

Tell them the truth

Of all that they did."

           [Al-Qur’an 6:159]

In this verse Allah (swt) says that one should disassociate oneself from those who divide their religion and break it up into sects.

But when one asks a Muslim, "who are you?", the common answer is either ‘I am a Sunni, or ‘I am a Shia’. Some call themselves Hanafi, or Shafi or Maliki or Humbali. Some say ‘I am a Deobandi’, while some others say ‘I am a Barelvi’.

3.   Our Prophet was a Muslim

One may ask such Muslims, "Who was our beloved prophet (pbuh)? Was he a Hanafi or a Shafi, or a Humbali or a Maliki?" No! He was a Muslim, like all the other prophets and messengers of Allah before him.

It is mentioned in chapter 3 verse 52 of Al-Qur’an that Jesus (pbuh) was a Muslim.

Further, in chapter 3 verse 67, Al-Qur’an says that Ibrahim (pbuh) was not a Jew or a Christian but was a Muslim.

4.   Qur’an says call yourselves Muslim

   1.

      If anyone poses a Muslim the question who are you, he should say "I am a MUSLIM, not a Hanafi or a Shafi". Surah Fussilat chapter 41 verse 33 says

      "Who is better in speech

      Than one who calls (men)

      To Allah, works righteousness,

      And says, ‘I am of those

      Who bow in Islam (Muslim)?’ "

                     [Al-Qur’an 41:33]

      The Qur’an says "Say I am of those who bow in Islam". In other words, say, "I am a Muslim".

   2.

      The Prophet (pbuh) dictated letters to non-Muslim kings and rulers inviting them to accept Islam. In these letters he mentioned the verse of the Qur’an from Surah Ali Imran chapter 3 verse 64:

      Say ye: "Bear witness

      That we (at least)

      Are Muslims (bowing

      To Allah’s Will)."

                      [Al-Qur’an 3:64]

5.   Respect all the Great Scholars of Islam

We must respect all the great scholars of Islam, including the four Imaams, Imam Abu Hanifa, Imam Shafi, Imam Humbal and Imam Malik (may Allah be pleased with them all). They were great scholars and may Allah reward them for their research and hardwork. One can have no objection if someone agrees with the views and research of Imam Abu Hanifa or Imam Shafi, etc. But when posed a question, ‘who are you?’, the reply should only be ‘I am a Muslim’.

Some may argue by quoting the hadith of our beloved Prophet from Sunan Abu Dawood Hadith No. 4579. In this hadith the prophet (pbuh) is reported to have said, "My community will be split up into seventy-three sects."

This hadith reports that the prophet predicted the emergence of seventy-three sects. He did not say that Muslims should be active in dividing themselves into sects. The Glorious Qur’an commands us not to create sects. Those who follow the teachings of the Qur’an and Sahih Hadith, and do not create sects are the people who are on the true path.

According to Tirmidhi Hadith No. 171, the prophet (pbuh) is reported to have said, "My Ummah will be fragmented into seventy-three sects, and all of them will be in h**l fire except one sect." The companions asked Allah’s messenger which group that would be. Where upon he replied, "It is the one to which I and my companions belong."

The Glorious Qur’an mentions in several verses, "Obey Allah and obey His Messenger". A true Muslim should only follow the Glorious Qur’an and the Sahih Hadith. He can agree with the views of any scholar as long as they conform to the teachings of the Qur’an and Sahih Hadith. If such views go against the Word of Allah, or the Sunnah of His Prophet, then they carry no weight, regardless of how learned the scholar might be.

If only all Muslims read the Qur’an with understanding and adhere to Sahih Hadith, Inshallah most of these differences would be solv
