This is your perspective. It's fine - it's an orthodox Sunni one, but it does not reflect the attitudes, habits, or "supposed to" ideologies of all Muslims.


That is not my perspective, that is the Rule accepted by 90% of the Muslims who happen to be Sunni! Do all Muslims pray? No, Do all Muslims pray on time? No, that doesn't change the Rule that is accepted and agreed on


Agreed on by a number of human scholars, with varying perspectives taking into account Quran vs. Sunnah. Yes, yours is the mainstream orthodox position, but even a quick Wiki read will tell you there are more than enough differing perspectives among scholars and schools of thought.

Wikipedia, my Islamic Source . Was that Satire? Won't even click or read. I have studied Islam and am continuously studding it, I don't need Wiikipedia.....


As have I. You're welcome to your opinion and perspective, but please don't speak for all Muslims.


Whether you like it or not, it is the Islamic Rule accepted by the majority of the Muslims of the world and practiced by the majority of Muslims every single day. If you don't know that and if you are quoting Wikipedia, you need to go back and study. Simple!


I don't dispute that. But as I'm sure you know, "majority" does not make truth or fact or right or absolute. If it were, Islam wouldn't even have taken off

So "majority" kind of doesn't really mean squat.

Speak for you, not "we."

It's the most common way for sure. I'm curious why this seems to upset you.


He is the poster always bringing up the Shias and Saudis into every conversation. He/She is obsessed lol


Huh? Truthfully, I have no idea who that person even is. Feel free to follow up with Jeff. I just came across this conversation in "Recent Topics," and just get irked when one Muslim from one perspective claims to speak for all. Share your upbringing, perspective, and opinion - that's great. But as I'm sure you know, there are some very wide and very varying positions of Muslims the world over.


This is not one of them!

Lol, doesn't "upset" me. But it's definitely irksome when anyone from a very large demographic chimes into claims to basically speak as a "we," as if Muslims (or any other large group) is a monolith. By all means speak from your position and perspective, but don't speak as "we" for over a billion people.
