MashaAllah that's good. I'm planning on studying Qur'anic Arabic and tajweed outside of university as well. Just searching around for teachers at the moment. I think studying both at the same time will be so much easier especially when it comes to learning grammar etc.

Yeah deffo do that.
Your grammar will also help with reading the Quran too. You'll pick up little mistakes you make easily.

MashaAllah.

You'll also notice the difference between how uni's teach arabic and how Islamic institutes/teachers teach it.

Where abouts are you from? I may know some ppl.

InshaAllah that's what I'm hoping 😄



I'm from the Leeds area. If you know any one then I'd appreciate it 🙂

That is certainly not a basis of tafseer. We don't pick and choose the interpretation of ahkaam from the Quran based on whims. To acknowledge that the Quran says something whilst not doing it is one thing, but to become influenced by things like what sits well with you and those around you in what you conclude of the Quran's instruction is a whole other matter.

This is what the Christians did and it eventually lead to a significant number of new atheists. As Muslims, we don't let 'what other people think' justify the distortion and twisting of Quranic injections. Rather, we study the Quran in order to attain a wholesome understanding of the issue at hand. It is very important not to mix up our priorities. We seek reward and acceptance from Allah ta'ala, no from those of His creation who deny His rights and favours upon them.

7 tips to get closer to Allah ta'aala

Im confused now. I have been told by people with good knowledge that those verses only apply to Muhammads wars with the pagans when he was growing Islam and being attacked. It makes sense to me because we cant still be at war with disbelievers. you are saying that you dont care if it makes Islam look violent because thats what you think the Quran says. I dont think I agree those verses can still be used today.

With Islam, it is with established evidence that the scholars conclude whether or not a ruling was limited for a time or used as an exception. We cannot merely dismiss portions of the Quran because it was revealed over a thousand years ago. As for the ayaat regarding war: war occurs in various places around the world and muslims must abide by the laws of Islam if they are involved in war. For example, the ayah stating "expel them from where they expelled you" clearly states a principle of retaliation without transgression and oppression. The mention of killing disbelievers is due to circumstantial necessity - the case at the time of revelation has been summarised earlier; muslims were being killed, tortured, assaulted, boycotted and made to flee their homes and business for fear of their safety. After leaving their homes, businesses, properties, family and friends for emigration to Madinah, they were still pursued by the disbelievers of Makkah...and so on and so forth.

It goes without mentioning that misusing the injuctions of the Quran for our own whims is outright going against the word of Allah, hence IS and their ilk lack knowledge and correct Islamic practice. But this does not mean that we disregard an ayah as outdated because of actions that claim to go by it.

As for the matter of whether the ayaat in question are specific only to those wars at the time or not, this is something that the scholars' explanations should be consulted about.

Thanks. I think I understand. Those verses only apply when the same sort of things are happening that happened to Muhammad pbuh. It is a bit confusing when I read different things from different scholars and they say diffent things. Who is your favourite scholar?
