A knockdown prophecy

[Peebothuhlu]

Don’t be so silly. ALL religions are to be mocked.

So if someone's family member died and they said something like, "She's in a better place now", you would then say, "Actually there's no such thing as the afterlife", are you willing to take it that far?

You should put those goal posts back where you found them after a comment like this.

Jus' sayin'.

Cheers.

Of course I wouldn’t. Dafuq is wrong with you that you would even ask such a question?

Piling on to someone’s pain isn’t remotely the same thing as mocking a religion, you fucking monster.

Many non-believers complain about prophecies in religious scripture being vague/imprecise/unfalsifiable. There is a lot to say about what constitutes a prophecy and what doesn't, and it's difficult to reach any kind of agreement. Islamic scripture has a clear advantage, however, as there are many hadiths that directly state facts and details that could've very, very easily turned out to be wrong.

Many people here probably read this authentic hadith before, but here it is again: 

Abu Huraira reported that Allah's Messenger (Peace be upon Him) took hold of my hands and said: " Every one of the children of Adam has been created with three hundred and sixty joints; so he who declares the Glory of Allah, praises Allah, declares Allah to be One, Glorifies Allah, and seeks forgiveness from Allah, and removes stone, or thorn, or bone from people's path, and enjoins what is good and forbids from evil, to the number of those three hundred and sixty joints, will walk that day having saved himself from the Fire."

source : https://sunnah.com/muslim:1007a (Sahih Muslim is one of the most authoritative collections of genuine hadiths in Sunni Islam).

The information is precise and straightforward: there are 360 joints in the human body.

Let's read what modern science says :

"The human body possesses 360 joints and more than 650 muscles; "

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6971295/

Now that wasn't very vague huh ? If anyone reading this wants to be honest with themselves, just ask : what would be your most precise guess about the number of joints, just by casually thinking about your different body parts ? 40 ? 50 ? 100 at most ?

I consider this hadith to be clinching evidence for the truth of Islam, there is simply no honest objection to it.

Oh wow, what great magic it is that one of the qu'ran's 9th century authors could read Greek.

I would jump down someone's throat for saying some shit like, "She's in a better place now", does that sound like something a poser would do?

You know what ISIS does to people. The religion demands respect, they're not playing around.

I think you are confusing respect with fear
Respect needs to be earned, it isn't automatic
