When friend's family member passed, how do friends support her/him, especially in Morocco or Muslim countries? She was just crying on the phone and I want to do something for her but want to know how people support each other in the time of grief in her country or religion. Please help if you know anything.

i have an audio file of an EVP recording of a haunted railroad ghost and i have it speaking on the audio file. im serious, a voice is talking that is not of my own and i am to believe it is a spirit or ghost or something. i need to know the best place, person, or organization to take this to to have it analized and looked at to determine if it is real or not and what it is saying.

So you say that God did send Jesus or Mohammed them to guide us...

And as most of you believe, is that God is the only creater and he loves us and will never do a single thing to hurt us...

So now my question is why should he create the "sin" then send someone over to rescue us from that "sin" ?
Or better yet why should he create us at the first place then send someone from our kind to guide us ?

It's like i create a computer program then after a while i go like: oops it has virus now, let me fix it (if i'm the only one who created it, so how come it got virus init?)

people dont know for sure if sylvia is fake. my belief is that she is real because she predicted the india tsunami a year before it happened and she predicted katrina a while before it happened. also, i believe john edward is real because there is no possible way he could do reseach on 30 people and memorize the info in one night. same with sylvia browne. but if you really dont believe in her. that is perfectly fine ,i am not against anyone who does not believe in her or others because everyone in this world has their own beliefs.

190 Fight in the way of Allah against those who fight against you, but begin not hostilities. Lo! Allah loveth not aggressors.

191 And slay them wherever ye find them, and drive them out of the places whence they drove you out, for persecution is worse than slaughter. And fight not with them at the Inviolable Place of Worship until they first attack you there, but if they attack you (there) then slay them. Such is the reward of disbelievers.

192 But if they desist, then lo! Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.

193 And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is for Allah. But if they desist, then let there be no hostility except against wrong-doers.

~Qur'an (Pickthall tr), Sura 2 - The Cow

A big myth in the West is that the Qur'an orders Muslims to arbitrarily kill non-Muslims. "Kill the infidels" as it's said. My understanding is that this is for COMBAT. Can anyone take explain these verses linguistically, from Arabic to English, to kill the myth? Shoukran!

Religous is great as a comforting bed time story but when a bed time story causes people who are living in real life to be hurt, prosecuted, tortured, and killed shouldn't we just give it up? Please do not say something like religion does not cause wars but people do. That statement makes absolutely no sense...Why the F%$& would a guy ram himself into a tower with intentions to kill himself and as many other's as possible if he did not think he would get some sort of reward afterwards. Why would a man kill as many people as possible of the opposite religous beliefs(hitler) if he did not think he was justified in serving the christian lord? Why would thousands of people rashly gather up armies to storm the walls of jerusalem and most likely give up the lives of their countrymen? How do think they got people to participate, asking them nicely or installing ficticious religous beliefs in a hoarde of people that best served their politcal ambitions. Think about what religion is. control?

I would like to know if the percentage of Muslims that actually hold extremist views--death to America and Israel, etc.--is pretty high or not so much at all. I am not close with any Muslims, and all the terrorism going on right now really makes me second guest the idea that Islam is the "religion of peace." Please be specific.
