Re: MOON SPLIT - miracle of Prophet Mohammed(saws) scientifically proved.

it saddens me when you pick an argument with me for sake of an argument and attack me on points which I never disagreed with.
1 - When did I say good character or our morals can't influence kufaar?
2 - Jazak Allah khayr for the advice about studying history. Studying just history doesn't do much good unless we ponder upon it.
3 - The proof for my argument is the da'wah of the anbiyyah (peace be upon them) and the historical and present facts. What was the primary message of the anbiyyah (peace be upon them)? Please try to read stories of reverts and reflect upon reversion of early Muslims. The history tells us that most people embraced Islam because of the concept of tawheed as it is unique. Everyone calls to being a good person. So, if we use this as our main weapon, how does it make us any different from others? and this is my argument.
4 - Suppose I agree with you, the argument is not whether it is easier to believe in tawheed; the argument is that it is primary cause for people's disbelief in Allah & Sharee'ah and deviancy from haqq.
5 - You say tawheed is easier to understand, yet you deny an important aspect of tawheed: as-sama' was-sifaat. This is another proof for my argument.
6 - In the history of anbiyyah (peace be upon them), the ahkam never come before imaan; imaan is the perquisite of ahkam. The evidence for this is the da'wah of the anbiyyah (peace be upon them) and hadith of our mother 'Aishah (radiAllahu anha) in which she said: "Allah had revealed the imaan first and then the laws. Had He revealed the laws first we would have never obeyed them". The fiqhi issues, moral code in Islam, maintaing good character, etc. are ahkam of sharee'ah.
