Maybe if you spent more time reading and thinking about Islam's rich intellectual history and browsed various fiqh rulings, you'd know anything I've said in this thread - that some issues are not black and white, and Islamic scholars debate these questions - pales in comparison to you and Classified's takfir, which is explicitly haram.

I didn't make any takfir. Just asked a question regarding your authenticity in claiming to be a Muslim; "Is it safe to say that Safferz is not a Muslim?".

What's the difference between calling someone gaalo and questioning their "authenticity in claiming to be a Muslim"? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By "follow", he meant the scholars that you accept. And, by "accept", he meant their teachings. By "teachings", he meant their approach to Islamic jurisprudence which should be in line with mainstream Islam. So, who are they? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

U know the issue is race/ethnicity and not skin complexion. It's well known that Zaid was an Arab of the Kalb tribe from Najd. So his marriage to a fellow Arab is no different than a dark skinned Faarax marrying a light skinned Xaliimo, and thus cannot be used as an example of an inter-racial/ethnic marriage.

Safferz Posted October 21, 2013 lol, what's well known is that Zaid ibn Harithah was black. Why are you so invested in denying this? Bilal ibn Rabah's father was Arab, which also gives him an Arab tribe and lineage, yet that doesn't take away from his blackness. So pointing out that Zaid was born to banu Kalb doesn't signify anything about his race. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I used it as an example because he was black, and the Prophet encouraged marriage between him and his cousin Zaynab. Her family's opposition to the marriage is why those verses in Al-Ahzab were revealed, and why he's the only Sahaba mentioned by name in the Quran. Anyway, I feel like I'm repeating myself a lot and I'm tired of this thread, so I'm gonna call it a night. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
