Science is the brother of Islam
RE: Science is the brother of Islam
They weren't inspired to preach any such thing, in case you missed that. But it wouldn't matter if they were, in case you didn't know how reasonable thinking works.
(which is why it doesn't matter when other religions -do- get things right, half right, or arguably right - for the wrong reasons- same as your own, if and when your own does get it right...this not being one of those times)
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I do not wish any ill to you for your blasphemy of the Holy prophet (peace be upon him), the sacred page, or your enmity with Allah most gracious most merciful, but out of love for you I must warn you about the danger that you place yourself in when you make yourself an enemy of Allah and the testimony of his compassionate servants who exhaust themselves and labor night and day after risk of death for the salvation of souls.

Thanks for keeping your composure in the face of provocation. It speaks well of you.

For a long time it was thought that the sense of feeling and pain was dependent on the brain. However it has been discovered that there are pain receptors present in the skin [18]. Without these pain receptors, a person would not be able to feel pain.Consider the following verse on pain:

We shall send those who reject Our revelations to the (Hell) Fire. When their skins have been burned away, We shall replace them with new ones so that they may continue to feel the pain: God is Almighty, All-Wise. [4:56]

Neither science nor revalation is needed to figure out that the main way we feel pain is through our skin. It's s simple observation. You misunderstand the thought behind saying pain is felt in the brain: it is the brain that is signaled by the pain receptors in the skin (and elsewhere) and interprets those signals as pain. Cut the connection between the receptor and the brain, and you won't feel the pain. If Allah is omnipotent, it would be trivial to induce pain by stimulating the brain directly, even if the skin was gone. The reverse you refer to was clearly intended to explain to Mohammed's followers, who clearly already knew that for ordinary purposes skin was necessary to feel pain, why they would not cease feeling it once their skin was burnt off in hell.

It would have been more impressive if he had told them all he needs to make them feel burning agony is their brains. THAT would have seemed like eery foreknowledge.

Praise Allah!

It's only impressive if you think the Muslims of the time couldn't possibly have been intelligent enough to make a connection between their skin being damaged and feeling pain.

Though I'm wondering if you think a broken bone won't hurt if the skin isn't damaged? The skin isn't the only organ with pain receptors.

Retroactive continuity (retcon for short) is alteration of previously established facts. Like how before Hubble proved the universe was expanding, English translations of the relevant sura didn't use the word 'expand' or 'expanding'.

I don't have to "handle" my wife. We are best friends. It is not a burden to me at all to have many intimate friends, but it doesn't work out that way as multiple wifes don't often feel simultaneously secure in a relationship they didn't initiate. If the two women were married and then wished to include me, that would be ok, but again, that is pretty rare.
The typical multi wife family occurs when women are pressured by an outside force to accept a sheep status and conform. Typically that force would be a misogynistic religion.

I don't know whether the words you're putting into his mouth actually apply to him, but I do not blame Islam for the loss of two buildings, I blame Al Qaeda and the US policy of supporting the House of Saud, which was the proximal motivation of the attack. The policy did not justify the attack (and did absolutely nothing to change the situation), but the policy is deeply misguided and bound to incite extremists.

In similar fashion, the loss of two buildings did not justify a full invasion of two countries, or many of the other actions our government has taken in the Middle East. However, you'll find that the majority of the atheists on this forum agree that the US response was unjustified and the Muslim lives lost a terrible and needless tragedy.

Not unpredictable, though. The US is well-known for disproportionate response to attack on its soil, Osama bin Laden was fully aware of what he was bringing down on the Middle East if he succeeded in his attack. It's what he wanted, and it's a shame our government fell for it.

I think that the stated reasons for our response were unjustifiable, but that many other justifiable and actionable reasons to invade existed that we could have - and should have- referred too - but also that all lives lost, on either side, were a tragedy.
(no provisions for either sides soldiers, though. We all decided to pull the trigger, after all)

You are persistent! You are an enemy of Muhammad servant of Allah most gracious most merciful and empowered by  Iblis who is the chief of evil and the leader of rebelliousness and the wisest of serpents who will lay snares for the holy prophet of God which appear to be wisdom to men....but Muhammad spoke with the wisdom of Allah as Divine revelation foretold by the Angel Gabriel messenger of Allah and the followers of Allah do not have always an answer for every question proposed by the accuser of the righteous elect who see the truth as foolishness for their sin has put scales over their eyes.

The other is Shaitaan or Shaytan who leads all to the path of evil with instruction that appears as precious wisdom to tickle the itchy ears and delight the hearts of those who are only impressed with human wisdom and not the wisdom that comes from above! All creation belongs to Allah so we should fear him not any creature!

Quote: we will see what the condition of women in Arabia was before the advent of Islam.In those days, women were treated like slaves or property. Their personal consent concerning anything related to their well-being was considered unimportant and unnecessary to such an extent that they were never even treated as a party to a marriage contract.Women were used for one purpose, and then discarded. They had no independence, could not own property and were not allowed to inherit. In times of war, women were treated as part of the loot. Simply put, their plight was unspeakable.Furthermore, the birth of a daughter in a family was not an occasion for rejoicing, but was regarded with humiliation. The practice of killing female children was rampant. The pagan Arabs used to bury alive their daughters with the fear that these girls will grow up and will get married to some men who will be called their sons-in-law.After the death of the father, the sons used to share his wives among themselves as they shared their father's property. After the death of the husband, the widow was kicked out of the house and was forced to live in a small hut, which was unventilated and dark, for one year. She was not permitted to leave the hut, nor was she allowed to take bath or change clothes. After one year, she was allowed to come out of the hut. People threw the camel dung into her lap and asked her to rub her body against the body of an animal. Then she was forced to go round the village in the same dirty attire, throwing the camel dung on her right and her left. This was the indication that she has completed her Iddat (waiting period).In India, the Hindu woman was the most suppressed creature. She was born to serve her men folk ? her father and brother before marriage, and husband and father-in-law and husband?s brothers after the marriage. She was forced to worship her husband. After the death of her husband she had no right to live and was forced to be burnt alive at the pyre of her husband. This inhuman custom was called the Sati. If she had no issue from her husband, she was forced to lie with her husband's brothers to get pregnant. This practice was called "Niyoga".Outside Arabia, conditions for women were no better. In Egypt and all European countries in the Dark Ages, women were treated worse than slaves. They were not regarded as human beings but as sort of sub-species between humans and animals.

Hold up, you think Islamic law isn't the same?

"Their personal consent concerning anything related to their well-being was considered unimportant and unnecessary to such an extent that they were never even treated as a party to a marriage contract.Women were used for one purpose, and then discarded. They had no independence, could not own property and were not allowed to inherit. In times of war, women were treated as part of the loot."

Do you know anything about your own book?

Additionally, what is the source that you quoted?
Also additionally, how is talking about pre-7th century India relevant to current Islamic law Saudi Arabia, which was your claim?
