The best means by which seekers of nearness to Allah, the Glorified, the Exalted, seek nearness, is the belief in Him and His Prophet, fighting in His cause, for it is the high pinnacle of Islam, and (to believe) in the kalimatu'l-'ikhlas (the expression of Divine purification) for it is just nature and the establishment of prayer for it is (the basis of) community, payment of zakat (Islamic tax) for it is a compulsory obligation, fasting for the month of Ramadan for it is the shield against chastisement, the performance of hajj of the House of Allah (i. e . Ka`bah) and its `umrah (other than annual visit) for these two acts banish poverty and wash away sins, regard for kinship for it increases wealth and length of life, to giving alms secretly for it covers shortcomings, giving alms openly for it protects against a bad death and extending benefits (to people) for it saves from positions of disgrace.
About the Holy Qur'an and Sunnah
Go ahead with the remembrance of Allah for it is the best remembrance, and long for that which He has promised to the pious, for His promise is the most true promise. Tread the course of the Prophet for it is the most distinguished course. Follow the sunnah of the Prophet for it is the most right of all behaviours. Learn the Qur'an for it is the fairest of discourses and understand it thoroughly for it is the best blossoming of hearts. Seek cure with its light for it is the cure for hearts. Recite it beautifully for it is the most beautiful narration. Certainly, a scholar who acts not according to his knowledge is like the off-headed ignorant who does not find relief from his ignorance, but on the learned the plea of Allah is greater and grief more incumbent, and he is more blameworthy before Allah.

I'm so sick of religion. Why can't people wake in the morning and get they day started. Let me put my face on the floor and face the East. Whatever, how about helping a fellow human being out. Do some charity work, put some shoes on a kid, help a woman in a battered women's shelter. Instead, they all worry about their afterlife. How about we focus on the here and now and worry about today. When your dead and pass on to whatever, then you worry about it when you get there. Truly no one knows and I haven't seen anybody come back to tell us what is really there. Everyone assumes what the afterlife holds and then want to kill everyone who doesn't believe. Just leave it alone and don't live your life in the cage you've made for yourself.

I've studied the Way of the Warrior, and Islam.
Jihad, Holy War, is the battle within oneself to overcome
ones personal demons. Like pride, self-righteousness, lusts, and fear. All the things that lead to things like thinking one is better than others, because of their sex, race, nationlaity, or faith. And killing in the name of God/Allah!

I'll tell ya "All about Islam"!
Basically they seem to be a violence prone race of people whom preach to "Old Mighty Allah" when they should be getting on with their lives! They seem to have all been totally absorbed by their religion and that has left them little time for anything else but to spread violence against those who don't dwell on "Allah" as much!
They need a shipment of Nintendo's to get them interested in something else!!

If Islam believes that there were a number of prophets, why do Mohammedans refer to Mohammed as THE prophet. This is one of the many inconsistencies in Islam.

So, your still preaching hatred and violence...
And people wonder "why" they have nut cases that blow themselves up...for the sake of allah..sheesh!
Are you advertising for terrorists? Or, spreading your hatred?
May JESUS CHRIST be your personal Saviour someday, as you call HIS name... (dont make it too late!).
They are right, this isnt a question, but a religious diatribe...
I wish you well..
