  1. nufin, lol just dif spelling :P


  2. they mean the same, just a spelling difference.

    They beleive in One god, the Koran,Prophet Mohammed and his close family.

  3. Spelling difference.

  4. one you are and one you aren't

  5. One blows himself up in Europe and the other blows himself up in the U.S.

  6. Muslim is the correct spelling and all the learned  Muslims scholars of the world spell Muslims.  The American write "Moslems" and the same spelling is taught to the Arab world children who learned to spell Muslims as Moslems.  

    Whenever you come across this spelling please try to correct it.

  7. What exactly would be Moslem's?

  8. Mu + Islaam = Muslim(oon) = follower of Islaam

    Mu + Shirk = Mushrik(oon) = follower of Shirk / the one who does Shirk

    So the correct spelling is Muslim (moos-leem(oon))

    [in general arabic words take a domma at the end making oo, and tanween when it is indefinate or missing al = the.  This is why I added the (oon).]

    Moslem is a different way of spelling the same.

    Just like Makkah, Mecca, Macca.

    But the the closest to Arabic sound is Muslim and Makkah.

  9. Nah, just spelling difference.  

  10. Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary (kind of an old version not the latest) stated that Moslem may be offensive. Anyways, Moslem is mostly, not always, used by non-Muslims.

  11. Britishers :P - Moslems

    Normal people - Muslims ..


  12. as Ranosh said yes lol

  13. Meaning is the same, just spelled differently :D

  14. Its just a spelling and pronunciation difference.  

    Muslim is the correct way to pronounce it.  

  15. Hay!

    Well they are the same thing! most americans say moslems and british people say Muslim like my self, i say Muslim.

    Latifah ;-)

  16. moslem is how most non-muslims spell it,they say it moz-lem

    muslim is the way it should be written and pronounced.

  17. moslem comes from muslim there is no difference in Arabic but in English:

    moslem = The proper name for a follower of the Islamic faith

    muslim ="one who surrenders to God"
