Hi, I would really like ONLY Jews to answer this question, because they will show me the good side of Judaism. I would like to learn more about the practical side of Judaism (prayers, their frequency, holidays, clothes that you wear - if any are specified, code of living, etc). I posted the same question yesterday and got bashed for wanting to learn about other religion ...... I hope it won't happen again.

Thanks in advance!

Links are welcome.

Respectfully ........... Azra

The Dutch have proposed a law that will ban muslim clothing in Holland/Netherland.

I think this is discrimanating!Then they should also ban
nun's-clothing and monk's-clothing and any other religious clothing!

I am a muslim woman, and I keep having these strange dreams. I dreamt a few months ago that I saw the Prophet (PBUH) standing on a hill holding a staff. THe wind was blowing and he was staring with no expression into it. He had long hair and it was blowing wildly in the wind. That's all that it was, for the whole dream. He was just standing there and the wind was blowing around him. I then had a dream a few nights ago that, in the dream, I had been defending the Quran, Islam, and all muslims for 4 years. Not exactly protecting it, because I know that ALlah protects whom he/she will and does not protect whom he/she will not. But something sort of like fighting for it in a good way where nobody was injured or got hurt. What in the world do these dreams mean? I am convert to Islam, by the way, and converted about 5 years ago. I am also American.

I mean, seriously! I'm a caring person who loves, no, lives to help others. When a friend or family member (or, on one occasion, an enemy) were/are sick, I nurse them back to health. My parents are getting on in their years and I've become their caretaker. ("Honor Thy Father and Thy Mother" - got to a nursing home and ask how many of the tenants' families are "devout catholic" or "christian" or whatever - most of them, that's who). When I see someone in a stalled car on the side of the road, or even someone walking down the side of the road (I live in a rural area, so anyone walking anywhere would have to have a damn good reason to do so), then I pull over and offer to help them or give them a ride. I tutor local kids in their academic studies. I help out (sometimes even working with churches) with food drives, clothing drives, soup kitchens, etc... But I don't believe in God. Does that make me an evil or bad person?

Koran, Sura 16, verse 103, When we change one verse for another, and Allah knoweth best what he revealeth, they (Christians and Jews) say, "Thou art only a fabricator (how true)." Nay! but most of them have no knowledge.

if it does say that they change one verse for another then how can you trust it as God's word?
