Clearing Up Misconceptions about IRAN

[Lord Oda Nobunaga]

Hey guy please watch your language!we are not kidnappers to blackmail anyone!
If you bother yourself and read the blogs I sent you'll know who are you dealing with!

I think he means the government.

[Heidar]

I think he means the government.

The governors are Iranian too.these kind of things doesn't exist in Iranian manners.
I won't deny we have some problems with the government but this kind of accusations are really unfair.atleast we are shias and we believe our guests are blessings from the god so we will treat them as our family members.

You are just looking for ridiculing someone or something!just review your posts in this thread and you can see you did not even asked one logical question and you have always wanted to chalenge someone with your imaginations and accusations.
I 've never wanted to insult or bother anyone and I expect the same from everyone so I ask you to be polite this time.

If you insist.

How widespread is nikah mut'ah in Iran? Is it a viable alternative for young Iranians who just want to remain on the right side of Islamic jurisprudence?

Mut'ah doesn't happen so much.it just happens between the too conservative people.the most important condition for any kind of marriege is the premission of the father of the girl.if her father did not allow her to marry there won't be any marriege.
I think nobody will allow his daughter to do such a thing unless there is a very strong chance of permanent marriege.
Even after divorcing mut'ah the girl can not do it rapidly with the other guys and she must wait for about forty days.
About your 2nd question:Yes,all true.

I personally liked Zoroastrianism a lot more. It'd be nice if Iranians switched back to that.

If only the sassanids and romans had not beat the out of each other in the last war, things would be so different now, no islamic empire to worry about and the reunification of the roman empire would have been possible, also we probably would not be worrying about suicide atttacks right now. as it stands is likely our technology would be even more advanced, as the disruption of mediterranean unity sent europe back hundreds of years into the past.

Thank you friends but Islam specially shiism is the religion of clement and mercy.we shias don't know those animals who do these crimes as muslims.they are created by ....(let me do not enter in politics as my friend asked) to ruin the face of Islam and muslims in the world.I suggest you to travel to Iran and see how a real muslim acts.
Zoroastranism is a very nice religion and its the closest religion to shiism,we respect every religion but we have chosen the perfect one(with respect to the others).
Let's be fair:what terrorist action shias have done yet?
We have always looked for defence not offence.
May the God guide us all.

you're kidding right?

You're the imperialists. You're trying to colonize us. What choice do we have? The Jihad will not end until every infidel is killed, enslaved, or converted. There will be no peace.

you're also kidding right?

first realize that jihad does not necessarily mean violent terrorism, if you've arrived at this point then daesh and hezbollah have succeeded in enabling misinterpretations, jihad can also mean an internal struggle when a believer's faith starts to wane, and also resistance against those that would not permit them to practice Islam

basically, religious persecutors like Trump and Ted Cruz actually lead more Muslims to jihad because they present a real threat to their ability to practice Islam

when Bush-Cheney shock and awe hundreds of thousands of Muslims unrelated to 9/11 or phantom WMDs, more Muslims are led to jihad

so be very careful about who you call colonizers and instigators

our enemy are terrorist groups, not any religion

overall though, political theism, backwards fundamentalism, and religious nationalism of any kind are detriments to society and civilization

What misinterpretations?

[snuggans]

What misinterpretations?

taking parts of Islam that most Muslims can identify with like jihad and debauch it in such a way that the word is then understood to define only what terrorist groups do

so when westerners get into the habit of speaking about jihadists when they're in fact referring to terrorists only, there is some getting lost in translation, there is more opportunity for normal Muslims to be offended since jihad can be practiced by anyone, it's very similar to "born-again Christianity", a "spiritual rebirth", or a regeneration of the human spirit from the Holy Spirit

in truth, the goal of religious terrorist groups is to make it seem like their faith is under attack, to provoke the sort of racial holy war between faiths and peoples that those on the far-right in the West also subscribe to

[Infidel144]

How did they debauch jihad (and what other parts of Islam are you talking about)?

[Heidar]

Let's end the filthy political debate and only discuss about religion because it doesn't have any outcome for any of us.









when I said we are fallowing the perfect one I meant Islam not only Shiism

When did I say Jihad meant violence or terrorism? Jihad is the political struggle to convert the entire world to Islam. Whether it is an internal struggle, an external struggle, an offensive war, a defensive war, the purpose is the same.

basically, religious persecutors like Trump and Ted Cruz actually lead more Muslims to jihad because they present a real threat to their ability to practice Islam

No, saying that Trump is persecuting Muslims and all that is leading Muslims to Jihad. Trump isn't persecuting anyone, he's trying to protect women and homosexuals.

when Bush-Cheney shock and awe hundreds of thousands of Muslims unrelated to 9/11 or phantom WMDs, more Muslims are led to jihad

Phantom WMDs? Like the ones Saddam sent to Syria when we invaded that were used against those kids in Syria?

so be very careful about who you call colonizers and instigators

Please calm your bleeding heart. We both know Islam was spread by the sword.

our enemy are terrorist groups, not any religion

Obviously. But we have to acknowledge that Islam has a violent inferiority complex.

overall though, political theism, backwards fundamentalism, and religious nationalism of any kind are detriments to society and civilization

You don't have to convince me.

[Col. Tartleton]

How dare you say that your religion is more perfect than ours?

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

You are an apostate.

I apologize if I offended christians but I didn't!
I have studied the Gospel and I realized it has so many things in common with Quran(Islam's book).there are many Ayat(parts) in Quran which refers to the story of Jesus and his mother or Moses and his biography and also 25 more prophets before or after them.(there were 124,000 prophets after Adam the first human).Also we know Jesus as one of the 5 great(Oulu Alazm) prophets of all time.
Our prophet came after your(also ours!) prophet(Jesus) to complete his guidance and the prophets before him.
One of the five main principles of Islam is to believe in the past prophets.
Please read the parts of Quran that I have sent in page 8

[Col. Tartleton]

You think Jesus said that?

[Heidar]

I can not memorize every part of the books I study.
So correct my mistake.
Since you are American,I thought you might be christian
