Re: Was Alexander the Great a Prophet?
If anyone believes God sent 124,000 messengers and not one of them was a woman, then their views or opinions on whether or not he sent a gay prophet is invalid IMO, regardless of their religion. There is no way God is that obsessed with the patermalistic culture that he wouldn't have any female prophets. Where does Allah say women can't be prophets?
Re: Was Alexander the Great a Prophet?
allah made women give birth and made them raise prophets.
Re: Was Alexander the Great a Prophet?
Seminole......
you for one definetly does not know about Islam. Read about it please.
........as in a difference between a SIN and a mistake...there is a diff. .....not all mistakes are SIN !
no human is perfect, that is how Allah created us, only Alah swt is perfect! prophets make mistakes and they are taught by Allah swt, but SIN....they are purer than normal human.
Prophets may have mde mistakes, but SIN......I sincerely doubt it, that is why they have the status that they now carry. Clean and pure.
Not sure what religion you follow, but pls read up on Islam. ...and about a woman prophet.......I will say the same again, Read all about it pls.
Re: Was Alexander the Great a Prophet?
what was Alexander's message? If any, I think Budha may have been a prophet of Allah.
No he was not. coz neither did he say that he is a prophet nor did he say that he is god or even son of god!!. and his teachings contradict teachings of muhammad!. so he cannot be.

As a non-believer you have a unique way of speaking on behalf of God. Evidence please ... please provide justification to your statement. ... Besides who said God can be obsessed ... these are human terms for humans ... God merely says BE and it is!

I am not a 'non-believer'. Being a non-Muslim and non-believer are not the same thing.
I'm not the one speaking on behalf of God. I asked "where does God say women can't be prophets"? Did he? Or are you and those who decided how to practice Islam decide there were no women prophets? Evidence please.
You are right - cultural things like paternalism are human terms and concepts. God says BE to all his creation, not just those who want to rule and be superior to the opposite sex.

Being a non-Muslim and non-believer is essentially the same thing if you only knew where Islam places the meaning of the term 'belief'.
I have already answered the other question about women prophets. There is no explicit statement but there are implicit ones read above.
God does not say BE to His creation ... Hahahah! Read the Qur'an ... God says Be and it IS ... Be is the Command of God that Creates from nothing.
Re: Was Alexander the Great a Prophet?
Peace everyone,
Seminole, I am curious about you using "BE" instead of "BE AND IT IS" as used by Psyah ... I may be on to something but then again, I may be wrong :) Can you explain?
Bro Psyah, if "Kun fa-yakoon" ever meant "Be and it is", then you're pointing to a grammatical error in one of the verses in the Quran as far as I understand.
Re: Was Alexander the Great a Prophet?
He's as much of a prophet as I am a women's rights-hater.

How can you possibly and logically debate with a group of people if the arguments used by them are based on big assumptions? There's no point in it.

Didnt Sikander e Azam like some boy on boy action?

Peace STONECOLD
I think that was just Hollywood pleasing minority groups. However, it could be possible in any case. It makes his title Azam somewhat a mockery ... absurd even.
Re: Was Alexander the Great a Prophet?
^ and peace onto you.
maybe that is the case. Hollywood does have a tendency to glamourise things!
In any case he was an accomplised military mind which possesed the strength to carry out his determined will!!!

You are speaking from your myopic point of view, your limited view and knowledge in what the term believer means. I believe in God as much or more as you.

So you agree that even in the male dominated religion of Islam, there are no explicit statements that women can't be prophets. It's just the culture, male-dominated history and tradition of Islam that tells you so.

Silly semantics. I don't care if he says abra kadabra. The fact remains that the obsession for all things to be dominated by man is a human concept.

we are pakistani, depending on the choice of one's position, One may not be Gay even after all the action.

Why would God say " Be" to His creation? lolzz
Re: Was Alexander the Great a Prophet?
^ Silly semantics. Do you have anything intelligent to offer?
Re: Was Alexander the Great a Prophet?
^Please answer my question.
Re: Was Alexander the Great a Prophet?
^ Please try another way to pretend to be clever. This isn't it.
Do you care to address why Muslims belive women can't be prophets? How about the fact that people are even discussing why an immoral military general is even being discussed as a potential prophet?

I don't think Muslims believe women cannot be Prophets. There were so many Prophets, we do not know for sure if they were all male.
