i agree be a bit more precise please...
Ok, heres precision for you..
I believe in Allah and his book. Anything else I believe in has been created by man.
What i'm trying to say is that Allah alone is perfect. Therefore, if we are mortal human beings, then could we be wrong in what we believe in?
I'm talking about everything else apart from Allah and his message.

How about ALLAH (SWT) Messenger Muhammad (PBUH)
There is no God only Allah, and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.

..so cool dude how is it going reading Nahjul Balagha..or u havnt started yet?
Brothers, you can't doubt about your belief, you can’t doubt about your Islam. You must believe in Allah and attribute to Allah what befits him from perfection, and clear him from imperfection.
Allah does not resemble any of his creations, he is not on the ^arsh as the jews say he is not in the skies nor above the skies he exists without a place. Because he created the places. And that’s the creed of the Prophets. Prophet Muhammad said what means: “Allah existed eternally and there was nothing other than him” that means there was no places no skies no lightness nor darkness, he existed without a place and after creating the creations, he is still without a place as Imam ^Aliy radiallahu ^anhu said: “Allah existed and there was no place, and now he exists as he was” i.e. without a place.
And you must believe in Prophet Muhammad as Allah revealed in Al Qur’an, you must attribute to him what befits him and clear him from what does not befit him, we must believe in him as the best of all creations, he is a human being, he is not light.
He brought moderation and civilization by the name of Islam. He enlightened minds to the light of Islam. We do not exaggerate with our love to him may peace and blessings be upon him.
That’s how your belief should be, and if anyone had a wrong belief he must leave it and if it was kufur such as attributing to Allah what does not befit him, than one must say Sahadah with the intention of leaving the Kufur and returning to Islam.
Let’s all say with the intention of thikr: La Ilaha Illahllah, Muhammadur-Rassulullah
ummm... not wrong ... i may not know everything bout my beliefs n stuff or maybe not 100% rite.. but m definitely not wrong bout the stuff i know bout my beliefes...ummmm..yeh...
===============
One falsehood spoils a thousand truths.
*==============*=
Howzzaaaaaaaaat !!!
Then consider this:
Allah is Perfect, His book is perfect, His messenger is the best example for mankind.
Why should I look any further for my belief? It is all there.
I shouldn't need to listen to or follow humans who are not perfect like Allah or are not the best example for mankind. In fact I believe in Allah and that Prophet Muhammed is Allah's last messenger. I don't need anything else.
Jazakallah.
I would say that yes, our own abilities are limited, and we are not infallable. What should be said that in the midst of all this arguing and many opions and beliefs there is one source or groups of people who are the best among us. To begin, the source is al-Qur'an, as understood, explained and revealed to the Prophet Muhammed (pbuh). The best people after him (pbuh) are the sucessive first three generations of muslims who believed in the Prophet (pbuh) and followed his example. The Prophet (pbuh) has stated in a haddith that the best people among me are my generation (of believers) then those who followed, then those who followed.
My own advice to all you brothers and sisters is that if you would like to see and follow the example of the best muslims, then take the Qur'an, the Prophet (pbuh) and the first three generations may Allah be pleased with them.
We should never get emotive, jump to conclusions or leap out in repulsion at something that we ourselves have never come across. All opions should be taken subjectively, using the sources or evidence that they come with. I have managed to see through many arguments and falsified opinions using this method, and it has helped me to fully appreciate some of the more contemporary groups.
And Allah always knows best.

My brother, you suggest that from this, Allah almighty exists without a place? This is your own interpretation and is not supported anywhere. He exists in a way that befits his majesty, our right is to afirm and not question his attributes - Al-Qur'an has many ayat where Allah has stated that he risen above the seven heavens - and not to mention the hadith of the slave-girl, when the Prophet asked her ayin-Allah? - when she pointed to the sky he (pbuh) stated that she is a true Mumin.

First three Generations??
What about the other Prophets.. are they not regarded highly?
Best as in to follow their example. All the prophets of Allah came to this earth with the same message - that of the kalima - Lailha Illallah. What is ment here is that to see the sunnah practiced in the best and correct way. We are the umah of the final messenger (pbuh) and to practice his sunnah and to properly understand the Qur'an, we must follow him and take the example of the pious predecessors.
This does not lower any of the other prohets in any way. They all teached the same righteous message.

And further, there are no more prophets who cam to the earth after Muhammed (PBUH).
Wassalaam!!
Note the words the best people among me (the best followers of muslims)
[This message has been edited by Alpha1 (edited December 01, 2000).]
Then how can people follow imams or leaders who came after the Prophet?
Clearly he was the last prophet. Clearly he was the best example to mankind. Clearly Allah is one and Muhammed (PBUH) is his last messenger.. so what is not clear?
My brother CD, how many groups of this world claim that they are all following the sunnah when they have differing beleifs? What qualifies them is that what they aree saying and practicing is from the tru and authentic sunnah - which has been practiced before by the pious predecessors.
Good post CoolDude
tottaly agree with you...
cooldude,the only way of finding out when you’re wrong is when you cannot answer questions that arise in teh minds of others…we have the Quran and the Hadiths to guide us,and they basically explain life as it is.
any contradiction to the quran by means of scientific procedures, means taht science is wrong…not the quran (umm…that was just a side note
