I'm not sure of what you're referring to regarding Christianity. So are we to understand by this that a person cannot judge someone to be a murderer should they have killed unlawfully according to Christianity?

With regard to Islaam, Allaah will judge each one of us, and recompense us accordingly - whether it be good or evil. Furthermore, concerning the above, Islaam highlights punishments for those who commit certain deeds; and not that a person 'should not be judged', if this is what you're referring to

I don't remember the exact hadith but I do remember hearing that Muhammad (saw) said that if a person curses and/or says negative things about another and it is not deserved by that other person, the negative comments will come straight back at the cursing person.

Furthermore, it is said in the Quran that backbiting is a great sin:

[49:12] O ye who believe! avoid most of suspicions; for suspicion in some cases is a sin. And spy not, nor back-bite one another. Would any of you like to eat the flesh of his brother who is dead? Certainly you would loathe it. And fear Allah, surely, Allah is Oft-Returning with compassion and is Merciful.

Also, the verse you pointed out from Leviticus reminds me of what the Quran says about couples in reference to the clothing part:

[2:187] It is made lawful for you to go in unto your wives on the night of the fast. They are a garment for you, and you are a garment for them....

[7:26] O children of Adam! We have indeed sent down to you raiment to cover your shame, and to be an elegant dress; but the raiment of righteousness — that is the best. That is one of the Signs of Allah, that they may remember.

[7:27] O children of Adam! let not Satan seduce you, even as he turned your parents out of the garden, stripping them of their raiment that he might show them their shame. Truly he sees you, he and his tribe, from where you see them not. Surely, We have made satans friends for those who believe not.

I hope this addresses your question.

we judge people in outward things, like if they pose a threat or are dangerous to society, but only Allah knows what is in the hearts of mankind.

“Verily, Allaah commands that you should render back the trusts to those, to whom they are due; and that when you judge between men, you judge with justice. Verily, how excellent is the teaching which He (Allaah) gives you!”[al-Nisaa’ 4:58]

“and let not the enmity and hatred of others make you avoid justice. Be just: that is nearer to piety” [al-Maa'idah 5:8]

Well, we believe that true knowledge of how a person REALLY is can only be obtained through very careful, very thorough scrutiny. Umar ibn Khattab [raa] -the 2nd successor and close friend to the Prophet Muhammad [saas] said that it wasn't enough to consider a man good just because you saw him pray 5 times a day in the Mosque or fast the entire month of Ramadan.. you had to get to know him intimately, watch him in all of his dealings with whoever he came in contact with, be it family, customers if he owned a store, employers, friends, neighbors, strangers, and even enemies... And if he was upright in all of this, then you could let your guard down about him...

There are some things that Islamic Jurists are allowed to condemn, but only if they are done openly... for example, homosexuality, adultery, etc... but if done discreetly, no one judges the person because this means God has covered their sins and is giving them time to repent of their evil action... One from among the Salaf [pious predecessors and companions of Muhammad] said, "Never insult anyone, for you never know if he may be a saint of God..."

Even if a hadd [state punishment] is inflicted, this does not give us liscence to judge a person... there was once a woman who came to the Prophet and confessed to adultery... the Prophet Muhammad [saas] begged her to recant, but she refused... at which the Prophet [saas] was left with no option but to stone her [as this is part of our Sacred Law]... once she was stoned, some of the companions cursed her and said, "May she burn in hell!" -The Prophet became angry and said, "If one drop of her blood were to fall into your house it would be enough to forgive all of your sins!" -The point was, she wanted to be executed because she knew that if she were punished for her sin in this life, then God wouldn't ask her about it in the next... and she cared more about her standing with God than with her own life on this earth, and that made her a siddiq [truthful saint]...

We could sum this up by saying, human beings make many heirarchies among ourselves, but there is an inner heirarchy known only to God. And this is the Islamic position.

Salaam/Peace

[49:11] O you who believe, no people shall ridicule other people, for they may be better than they. Nor shall any women ridicule other women, for they may be better than they. Nor shall you mock one another, or make fun of your names. Evil indeed is the reversion to wickedness after attaining faith. Anyone who does not repent after this, these are the transgressors.

Allaah said to Moosa and Haroon when He sent them to Pharaoh (interpretation of the meaning):

“And speak to him mildly, perhaps he may accept admonition or fear (Allaah)”

[Ta-Ha 20:44]

In islam we cannot judge a person without any proof.

An-Nisa [4:58] Verily! Allâh commands that you should render back the trusts to those, to whom they are due; and that when you judge between men, you judge with justice. Verily, how excellent is the teaching which He (Allâh) gives you! Truly, Allâh is Ever All¬Hearer, All¬Seer.

An-Nisa [4:105] Surely, We have sent down to you (O Muhammad SAW) the Book (this Qur'ân) in truth that you might judge between men by that which Allâh has shown you (i.e. has taught you through Divine Revelation), so be not a pleader for the treacherous.

Al-Maeda [5:42] (They like to) listen to falsehood, to devour anything forbidden. So if they come to you (O Muhammad SAW), either judge between them, or turn away from them. If you turn away from them, they cannot hurt you in the least. And if you judge, judge with justice between them. Verily, Allâh loves those who act justly.

Al-Maeda [5:45] And We ordained therein for them: "Life for life, eye for eye, nose for nose, ear for ear, tooth for tooth, and wounds equal for equal." But if anyone remits the retaliation by way of charity, it shall be for him an expiation. And whosoever does not judge by that which Allâh has revealed, such are the Zâlimûn (polytheists and wrong¬doers - of a lesser degree).

Al-Maeda [5:47] Let the people of the Injeel (Gospel) judge by what Allâh has revealed therein. And whosoever does not judge by what Allâh has revealed (then) such (people) are the Fâsiqûn (the rebellious i.e. disobedient (of a lesser degree) to Allâh.

Al-Maeda [5:48] And We have sent down to you (O Muhammad SAW) the Book (this Qur'ân) in truth, confirming the Scripture that came before it and Muhaymin (trustworthy in highness and a witness) over it (old Scriptures). So judge among them by what Allâh has revealed, and follow not their vain desires, diverging away from the truth that has come to you. To each among you, We have prescribed a law and a clear way. If Allâh had willed, He would have made you one nation, but that (He) may test you in what He has given you; so compete in good deeds. The return of you (all) is to Allâh; then He will inform you about that in which you used to differ

Al-Maeda [5:49] And so judge (you O Muhammad SAW) among them by what Allâh has revealed and follow not their vain desires, but beware of them lest they turn you (O Muhammad SAW) far away from some of that which Allâh has sent down to you. And if they turn away, then know that Allâh's Will is to punish them for some sins of theirs. And truly, most of men are Fâsiqûn (rebellious and disobedient to Allâh).

Sad [38:26] O Dâwûd (David)! Verily! We have placed you as a successor on earth, so judge you between men in truth (and justice) and follow not your desire for it will mislead you from the Path of Allâh. Verily! those who wander astray from the Path of Allâh (shall) have a severe torment, because they forgot the Day of Reckoning.

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “I have only been sent to perfect good characteristics.”

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said

Allaah shows mercy to those of His slaves who are merciful.”

O you who have believed, when you go forth [to fight] in the cause of Allah, investigate; and do not say to one who gives you [a greeting of] peace "You are not a believer," aspiring for the goods of worldly life; for with Allah are many acquisitions. You [yourselves] were like that before; then Allah conferred His favor upon you, so investigate. Indeed Allah is ever, with what you do, Acquainted.

004.094

O you who have believed, be persistently standing firm in justice, witnesses for Allah, even if it be against yourselves or parents and relatives. Whether one is rich or poor, Allah is more worthy of both. So follow not [personal] inclination, lest you not be just. And if you distort [your testimony] or refuse [to give it], then indeed Allah is ever, with what you do, Acquainted.

6) Al-Maeda (8)

8. O ye who believe!

stand out firmly for Allah, as witnesses to fair dealing,

C706. Cf. 4:135.

and let not the hatred of others to you make you swerve to wrong and depart from justice.

C707. To do justice and act righteously in a favourable or neutral atmosphere is meritorious enough, but the real test comes when you have to do justice to people who hate you or to whom you have an aversion. But no less is required of you by the higher moral law.

Be just: that is next to Piety: and fear Allah,

for Allah is well-acquainted with all that ye do.

The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever is deprived of gentleness is deprived of all goodness.” (Narrated by Muslim, no. 2292).

The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The strong man is not the one who can wrestle another to the ground, rather the strong man is the one who can control himself at times of anger.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, no. 6116).

i am mentioning this because i have seen some of your answers in R and S

Edit:

Well Sister i am sure you have not read at all the details

Disprove me " From the Bible" your false claim please ?

Here are the details:

13- Can a man marry his brother's wife or not?

Permission for parents to marry their children in Leviticus

20:21. See sub-section "C" below. pulsar.gif (2171 bytes)

This section is divided into the following sub-sections:

(a)- The Verses.

(b)- Biological Contradiction and False Promise on "they will be childless."

(c)- Rejecting of the blood-relationship, hence allowing for the parents to marry the unrelated children!!

(d)- Sam Shamoun got destroyed and silenced once again!

(a)- The Verses:

Leviticus 20:21

If a man marries his brother's wife, it is an act of impurity; he has dishonored his brother. They will be childless.

Deuteronomy 25:5

If brothers are living together and one of them dies without a son, his widow must not marry outside the family. Her husband's brother shall take her and marry her and fulfill the duty of a brother-in-law to her.

How am I supposed to read this?! Don't tell nonsense such as "The first verse is talking about a divorced wife, while the second one is talking about a widowed wife," because Lev. 20:21 never mentioned a divorce case or a deceased brother. You are only reading the divorce into the text. Also, it is quite possible that Lev. 20:21 was referring to a widowed wife, and then the verse got abrogated by Deut. 25:5.

In any case, the abrogation is quite clear. Marrying the brother's wife was at first forbidden and considered impure, shameful and dishonoring to the brother, and then not only it became permissible, but also mandatory in the case of death!

(b)- Biological Contradiction and False Promise:

Let us again look at Leviticus 20:21:

Leviticus 20:21

If a man marries his brother's wife, it is an act of impurity; he has dishonored his brother. They will be childless.

Would GOD Almighty really deprive the couple from having children (by causing either of them to become barren) as promised in the verse?? Like much of the countless scientific blunders and false prophecies and promises in the bible, this one stinks just as bad as the rest of them, because scientifically it would never happen! She will get pregnant and they will probably have 10 kids, and all boys too since the bible hates girls (more "gain" to the supposedly "childless" couple, and more defiance to the corrupt verse in other words):

Ecclesiasticus 22:3 "....and the birth of ANY daughter is a loss" (From the New Jerusalem Bible. It's a Roman Catholics Bible)

Revelation 14:4 "Those are those (men) who did not defile themselves with women, for they kept themselves pure. They follow the Lamb wherever he goes. They were purchased from among men and offered as first fruits to God and the Lamb."

If a woman gives birth to a baby boy, then she becomes unclean for 7 days. But if she gives birth to a baby girl, then she becomes unclean for 14 days. So in other words, the birth of any female causes double the pollution: Leviticus 12:2-5 "Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman have conceived seed, and born a MALE child: then she shall be unclean SEVEN DAYS; according to the days of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean. And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised. And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying THIRTY THREE days; she shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying be fulfilled. But if she bear a FEMALE child, then she shall be unclean TWO WEEKS, as in her separation: and she shall continue in the blood of her purifying SIXTY SIX days."

1 week for the boy, 2 weeks for the girl.

1 month for the boy, 2 months for the girl.

If a woman tries to save her husband from a beating by grabbing the other man's private parts to lift him off her husband, then both her hands must get cut off: Deuteronomy 25:11-12 "And in case men struggle together (in a fight) with one another, and the wife of the one has come near to deliver her husband out of the striking one (to save her husband), and she has thrust out her hand and grabbed hold of his private (the other man's groin), she must then get both her hands cut off, and the eyes of the men must feel no sorrow."

Allah Almighty said regarding the birth of females in the Noble Quran:

"When news is brought to one of them, of (the birth of) a female (child), his face darkens, and he is filled with inward grief! With shame does he hide himself from his people, Because of the bad news He has had! Shall he retain it On (sufferance and) contempt, Or bury it in the dust? Ah! what an evil (choice) They decide on? (The Noble Quran, 16:58-59)" So considering the birth of females as a bad thing is evil by itself in the Noble Quran.

Also, Allah Almighty said:

"Know they not Allah Knoweth what they conceal and what they reveal? And there are among them illiterates, who know not the Book (i.e., the Bible), but (see therein their own) desires, and they do nothing but conjecture. Then woe to those who write the Book with their own hands, and then say: 'This is from Allah,' To traffic with it for a miserable price! Woe to them for what their hands do write, and for the gain they make thereby. (The Noble Quran, 2:77-78)"

"O Apostle! let not those grieve thee, who race each other into unbelief: (whether it be) among those who say "We believe" with their lips but whose hearts have no faith; or it be among the Jews,- men who will listen to any lie,- will listen even to others who have never so much as come to thee. They change the words from their (right) times and places: they say, 'If ye are given this, take it, but if not, beware!' If any one's trial is intended by God, thou hast no authority in the least for him against God. For such - it is not God's will to purify their hearts. For them there is disgrace in this world, and in the Hereafter a heavy punishment. (The Noble Quran, 5:41)"

"Who can be more wicked than one who inventeth a lie against God, or saith, "I have received inspiration," when he hath received none, or (again) who saith, "I can reveal the like of what God hath revealed"? If thou couldst but see how the wicked (do fare) in the flood of confusion at death! - the angels stretch forth their hands, (saying),"Yield up your souls: this day shall ye receive your reward,- a penalty of shame, for that ye used to tell lies against God, and scornfully to reject of His signs!" (The Noble Quran, 6:93)"

Since the books of Moses weren't written by Prophet Moses, nor were the Prophets' "books" written by the real Prophets, many liars have attributed lies on the mouths of GOD Almighty's Prophets, peace be upon all of them.

(c)- Rejecting of the blood-relationship, hence allowing for the parents to marry the unrelated children!!

Let us again look at Leviticus 20:21:

Leviticus 20:21

If a man marries his brother's wife, it is an act of impurity; he has dishonored his brother. They will be childless.

If the interpretation in sub-section "b" above is wrong - that GOD Almighty didn't supposedly promise to cause either of the parents to become barren - then the only interpretation left for this verse is that the children born from the new married couple are not considered actual legitimate children. So in the case of sin (a Jewish man and a Jewish woman violated Leviticus 20:21 and got married in some land today), the children are considered strangers! This means that they can neither inherit nor carry the family's last name.

So if this is the case, then here are some serious questions:

1- Since the children are not related to either of the parents, can we now marry any of the parents' children, from their previous marriages, to the new children?

2- Can the mother, in case of divorce, marry any of the unrelated boys?

3- Can the father do an act of polygamy and marry any of the unrelated girls, especially if they're not legally registered under his name?

See proofs about polygamy being allowed in both the Old and New Testaments in the Bible.

I am sure that your natural inclination for an answer will be "NO" if you are a Jew or Christian, because these questions sound quite outrageous! But let us leave emotions aside for a second and let us think objectively here. Please explain to me what does "they will be childless" exactly mean? If neither of the parents is promised to become barren, then what else does it mean? And if the relationship between the parents and the new children is not approved by GOD Almighty,
