    Point1: Who cares what you are for or against? As I said before, you stated that you advocate that gunpointing at the head of an Afghan to enforce secularization and democracy is justified. Thats really not much different than the god you worshipped in the 80s named Najibullah nor is it all that much different than the Wahabi mindset.

    What we do know for sure though is that you are possibly clinically insane or at least mentally unfit; and in that vein you are more than willing to bend reality to fit your lack thereof.

    Point2: You repeated yourself again in the hopes that repitition is reality - frankly, its not and your logic is still obsolete and ignorant. A single line or a single phrase or a single chapter or a single amendment can serve as a foundation for many things. Its your opinion that it cannot - and you are entitled to a non evidence based opinion.

    Please learn a new set of phrases or just simply learn the cut and past function because you are wasting time with simply trolling and repeating yourself.

    Point 3: Quit being an idiot; hadith literature is replete with examples of the punishment being awarded and by contemporary sources discussing the Prophetic behavior toward the Punishment. Sahih Muslim itself contains 2 hadith; 1 in which the Prophet says that justice would demand that if Fatimah Zahra herself stole a valuable item the punishment of excising her hand would be fit. Abu Hurairah goes on to lament the foolishness of a theif who stole two items and his both hands cut.

    Point 4:
    Your website is nonsensical. It relies on verbal semantics and selectively excises the most important part of the ayah, you know the portion you chose to ignore because you are malignant? The part where it says: so that it serves as a deterrent??? How does spiritually excising a hand serve as a deterrant. Get real and get a life.

    Its second thrust is to say that since the word cut can mean many things it may not mean what it means. For instance, in English, if I say "she cuts out the fluff" or "it cut my heart like a knife" that these are metaphorical. So what? All he proved is that words have different applications. He then goes on to say that since hands is metaphorical in parts of the Quran, this too can mean the punishment is metaphorical.

    Thats assinine, so if tomorrow a doctor says, " I examined her hands." that could mean he examined metaphorical hands since in English, the phrase exists: "Things got out of hand"

    The author then goes on to concede the possible interpretations INCLUDE the physical penality and says the same I said, which is the community should have a discussion.

    Point 5:
    You are more absurd than the argument I made. The only thing absurd is that you choose to be "spiritual" when it suits you and materialistic when it suits. My commentary in no way said the Quran needs to be repromulgated. My comment was to indicate that people cannot willy nilly apply laws. For instance, if in denmark someone comes and says: John stole a diamond... A man cannot go and grab a sword and cut off Johns hand. There is due process in all law systems.

    Even when it comes to the sunnah of jamah prayer, Ibn Abbas suspended it in the time of raining and flooding so that people would not meet great difficulty. His ability to execute the order was paramount.

    Point 5:
    Quit wasting my time with silly and stupid requests. 14 examples? Thats your job. You made the assertion, I provided an example from Muslim from Abu Hurairah. The rest of the onus is on you.

    Point 6:
    You can come up with whatever system you wish. Folks that follow a philandering, murderous guru named Osho have no place in Pashto or dictating to Pashtuns or Americans or even folks in Zimbabwe for that matter.

    Point 7: I doubt you have studied constitutional law or penal codes since you, in your words confused the constitution with a penal code. Thats your error. Learn the difference.


    If you choose to repeat yourself, I will simply cut and past the above as you are at this juncture trolling.
    Great post Lala, but this Badlun is a lost cause, a brick wall.

      Point1: Where did I state that that I advocate gunpointing at the head of an Afghan to enforce secularization and democracy is justified. If you show me my such words I will never never appear in these forums and will publicly accept my defeat. Where did i say that I worship Najibullah as a god?

      Point2: A single line cannot become a complete system. Its stupidity that you found a system for millions of people just on one reference or one quote. This is axiomatic that Islam was never promulgated as a system because simply it is not complete.

      Point 3: Only one hadith or one instance in 1400 years cannot validate a punishment to be part of the legal system. Personally I do not believe in all hadith. If one tries then there can be found one hundred and one reasons that this or that hadith is false. Even in Bukhari yu have week hadiths.
      Point 4:
      Prove with arguments that the website is nonsensical. For you every thing against your standpoint is stupid, foolish and idiotic. using such words show your base and low mental propensity. I had some respect for you but you have downgraded yourself to such a low position that in each of your posts you have such nonsense. You do not know how to discuss something in a respectful way. It seems you are not an abdali but from a family of barbers or dancers. I never used such words but every thing has a limit. If my arguments are repetitive and not convincing just don't respond but why are you using such a low language all the time. Its beyond my comprehension.
      Point 5:
      Where is that due process in the so called legal system of islam? This is my basic point that all such injunctions are moralistic as there is no details of awarding such punishments. Just by saying cut the hand , you cannot make a legal code. What kind of system it is that Ibn Abbas suspends it? Who is superior God or Ibn Abbas. Divine laws cannot be suspended. Thats why religious subjects are permanent with no flux. If Ibne Abbas suspends some thing it cannot be divine.


      Point 5:
      The onus is on you as you say that Quran is complete. I claim it is not. Only religious part is complete not legal or political or economical. If you believe in any quranic legal system then you have to prove it from the history. If I do not believe in it how can I prove it?

      Point 6:
      Study Osho then you will understand him. But here I have never quoted him. This is purely a religious discussion nothing to do with Osho. Do not make yourself this low to refer to other irrelevant areas to prove your point. Really I am discovering you to be a very shallow person. You have learnt to refer to some American scholars and using few typical sentences to impress people but now I have discovered you that you are a garbage of nonsense.

      Point 7: I have never confused the constitution with a penal code. How a student of law for 5 years can confuse these two. My problem is time. Once I get sufficient time you will find me refuting your each and every baseless propositions.

        Its there, in the multitude of quotes you have left behind like a giant verbal diarrhea stain on the forum. Its for you to waste your time finding it, not mine.

        Point2: A single line cannot become a complete system.

        Oh really? No wonder no Pashtun Einstein has sprung from your loins.

        How about these 4 lines: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

        Yet a whole court system and penal code and thousands upon thousands of court cases defining and redefining it has become the basis for a complete system.

        Its stupidity that you found a system for millions of people just on one reference or one quote.

        What is stupid is your subsersiveness and repetitive idiocy. Read above.

        This is axiomatic that Islam was never promulgated as a system because simply it is not complete.

        Per you, and you Madame are not God; rather far removed from it.

        Point 3: Only one hadith or one instance in 1400 years cannot validate a punishment to be part of the legal system. Personally I do not believe in all hadith. If one tries then there can be found one hundred and one reasons that this or that hadith is false. Even in Bukhari yu have week hadiths.

        Who cares about your personal preferences? We have hadith scholars like Jonathan Brown of Georgetown telling us about hadith reliability and its important anthropoligical role in serving as contemporary evidence. Therefore, your opinion is useless.

        Point 4:
        Prove with arguments that the website is nonsensical.

        Quit wasting my time. I provided those arguments, but your clinically insane mind decided to scan over them. Go back and reapply your 5th grader reading level to the words and see what you missed.

        For you every thing against your standpoint is stupid, foolish and idiotic.

        No, just the sources you provide which tell us quiet a bit about your standpoints being "stupid,foolish, and idiotic"

        using such words show your base and low mental propensity.

        No using such words shows that overtime your arguments have come close enough to being the equivalent of a mental toilet, that one merely should just flush it all out.

        I had some respect for you but you have downgraded yourself to such a low position that in each of your posts you have such nonsense. You do not know how to discuss something in a respectful way. It seems you are not an abdali but from a family of barbers or dancers.

        And you from a family of haramyaan that those barbers and dancers left behind

        I never used such words but every thing has a limit.

        Your limit was, is, and will be flaccid.

        If my arguments are repetitive and not convincing just don't respond but why are you using such a low language all the time. Its beyond my comprehension.

        Really, like this jack-ass comment from you previously?

        "Also I have read that Muslims don't drink alcohol, with the exception of those who are of the Hanafi school of thought in Sunni Islam, and they abstain from wine but drink vodka and non-grape-based alcoholic drinks."

        http://www.pashtunforums.com/showthr...i+vodka&page=2

        Yeah we hanafis go around drinking vodka all day.


        Point 5:
        Where is that due process in the so called legal system of islam?

        Islamic jurisprudence demands trials before punishment execution. Thats basic. Its not a country or a street sign where you say "where is it" and I show it to you. Its in the descriptions of the Caliphate rendering verdicts and in the Prophetic example itself.

        This is my basic point that all such injunctions are moralistic as there is no details of awarding such punishments.

        Yes there are. What the he-ll nonsense are you spouting now? There are some instances defined by prophetic example, such as communal prayer which are considered personal choice and some such as inter person crimes that have a defined punishment. Quit playing verbal gymastics and coy games.

        Just by saying cut the hand , you cannot make a legal code. What kind of system it is that Ibn Abbas suspends it? Who is superior God or Ibn Abbas. Divine laws cannot be suspended.

        You show an exceedingly minimal understanding and even reading of the Quran based in your idiotic alcohol commentary above and now this comment. Surah Baqrah itself provides a verse that indicates in life threatening situations or extreme duress various injunctions should not trump common sense and saving life. Muhammad (S) once told companions who made a fellow campanion due wudhu while he should have been receiving treatment for an injury: "you have killed him." after he died due to hemorrhage.

        Thats why religious subjects are permanent with no flux. If Ibne Abbas suspends some thing it cannot be divine.

        Thats just about the most cosmically assinine statement I have ever heard. God himself recommends and suspends treaties in the Quranic text. God himself modifes the prayer in times of duress and defines limits to the point of advocating that in the least a believer ought remember him lying on his side if in a complete state of duress.

        Point 5:
        The onus is on you as you say that Quran is complete.

        Repeating my statement does not remove the onus from you to me. Sorry, it does not work that way.

        I claim it is not. Only religious part is complete not legal or political or economical. If you believe in any quranic legal system then you have to prove it from the history. If I do not believe in it how can I prove it?

        You choose to ignore presented information and ask for irrelevencies ad nauseum

        Point 6:
        Study Osho then you will understand him.

        Hell no, i have no need to learn about the life of a person who smeared feces onto other peoples food to poison them.

        But here I have never quoted him. This is purely a religious discussion nothing to do with Osho.

        He is your hero, pir, and salvation status symbol so he has all to do with your viewpoints and how seriously I or any pashtun take you.

        Do not make yourself this low to refer to other irrelevant areas to prove your point. Really I am discovering you to be a very shallow person.

        Good, jump into the shallow end of a swimming pool head first and see what happens.

        You have learnt to refer to some American scholars and using few typical sentences to impress people but now I have discovered you that you are a garbage of nonsense.

        Says the idiot who talks about hanafi doctrine advocating vodka. The gloves are now off with you, Soldat, and all the other fools. You meant garbage can of nonsense, I assume.

        Point 7: I have never confused the constitution with a penal code.

        Yes you did earlier in the discussion

        How a student of law for 5 years can confuse these two.

        Obviously, he is a bad student of 5 years who probably requires 10 years.

        My problem is time. Once I get sufficient time you will find me refuting your each and every baseless propositions.

        With repetition? Like **** Cheney? I look forward to your trolling.

          I will soon reply to all your comments above but first please do not be so dishonest to quote me with out context. In your above referred post I have written that I have read some where that what Hanafis think or practise about alcohol. I said I have read somewhere I did not mean there that I believe in this myself.

          Here I am going to give the links where I read the Hanafi's approach about alcohol, wine or vodka

          When you are prohibited from the above things (Drinking and taking drugs unless prescribed) it is less likely for these causes of death. Thi...




          If I drink or not, if I being from a Hanafi background myself believe in the above approach is my personal matter but I have never never written in my post that this what I believe.

          You are such a liar, such a mean person I could not imagine that before. Please just ask your conscience why are you so base, so mean and such a dejected soul that for proving your point you take the support of dishonesty, meanness, calling names, blatant lies and hypocrisy. Just be sinecure with your own self for a second and you will find your true worth and may repent and may not adopt such unfair means in such public discussions for attention of some one and for cheap popularity

                  I am not looking for popularity. You people and your nationalist colleagues talk a big claim about Pashto, Pashtun, and Pashto history. Yet you have not the slightest clue of the pashtun psyche.

                  Even a village pakir has more of an idea of how Pashto ishtiraaum and Pashto behavior than you people.

                  We gave you a lot of rope and in every context, when its secularism and democracy, when its the discussion of our historical figures, when its other worldly issues you have received your respect.

                  But instead of returning the favor, you and your colleagues here treat Islam like it is some sort of joke or apparel to be worn, shorn, and taylor fit to you and your vanities. This NO DIFFERENT than the jahil that controls his woman and then, for his vanities, says that Islam gives him rights he he doesnt have.

                  There are many deep theological discussions to be had, and that are being had between Muslims and between Muslims and Western theologians.

                  No one gets upset when the discussion is valid no matter how deep that discussion goes. This discussion between Mostafa and I even went into the authenticity of the Quran. Whether he is agnostic, atheist, zealot or whatever, Mostafa understands the Pashto mindset and does not insult, debase, or try to twist the Quran into something it is not and he does not repeat himself 100 times in the same discussion using, as Scimitar put it, tertiary sources.

                  http://www.pashtunforums.com/showthr...highlight=puin

                  You people claim to have Pashto and that you deserve the dastaar of Khattak but instead you forget your own people's predilictions. Even a cultural Pashtun who is a zamindaar has a better idea than you do of what respect for this Book means. I was in a village outside Pashtunabad as a 16 year old once laying back on a chair at a slight angle and I had the Quran in my hand along with some other text books. The simple Zamindaar gave me a slight smack on the neck and said "Saam shkena, da Khodaay Pak Kitaab deh!" - that is the sort of respect that the the Pashtun gives the Book of God.

                  Instead you people think that by saying dumb crap, posting insulting and irreligious things, and advocating brazenly incorrect ideologies that attempt to make ok those things that are not ok that you will DESENSITIZE the Pashtun and make him used to hearing his religion made a mockery of. Let me tell you something: NEVER. This strategy will not work on our people. Instead you will do just the opposite, you will radicalize the people.

                  You will say, this was a simple and valid discussion. It was up until when you started simply trolling and repeating the same comment again and again and again in the hopes that unreality would become reality.

                  I do not shy away from saying whatever is necessary when you and the Irshad Manjiniites try to insult the religion and make baseless assertions.

                  And do not even come and tell me, is this how Pashtuns act? Khushaal Khan Baba did not shy away from the truth. When mockery and directness was required he spit fire. He even went to the extent of calling his adversaries amongst the opponent Kabail, castrated donkeys and worse.

                  Omar Bin Al Khattab once heard the Quran recited in a different ahruf he did not recognize and was so protective of it, he got the man in a headlock and took him to the Rasul.

                  You think you are better than these two?

                  Do not think you are someone special where you can play games with the Holy Quran and "educate" Pashtuns on how to view it.

                      From his posts he hardly knows anything about religion or the Quran.

                      The Quran is too complicated for his understanding.

                      He wants the Quran to be like the bible.

                      Somewhere far in the back ground collecting dust.

                      So basically what he wants is Muslims to be like

                      the Christians of today.

                      Who hardly practice anything at all their life.

                      What he doesn't understand is Pashtun Culture

                      is far stricter than the actual Islam Religion.
                      I believe the sun should never set upon an argument.

Why Muslim states have constitutions? Why they dont adopt Quran as their constitution or legal code? This never happened in the history of Islam. Even in the early 30 years out of 1400 years Quran was never the only source of law.

                        I have studied Quran word by word and sentence by sentence. I understand Arabic language. What I have found in Quran is stress on beliefs and worship or morality. Legal issues are secondary in nature and that too with ethical touch.

                        I cant comprehend how Mu'tazilah system can work in religion. Intellectual analysis can be done in logical , philosophical or scientific domains not in religious ones as religion is the name of beliefs in unseen and worshiping supernatural entities. How reason can be applied to unseen and supernatural phenomena. Imam Ghazali has rightly said that heart has a reason which reason cant understand.
                        I hope RTR will respond to my this post especially the part about Mutazilah

                          I separate Pashto frm Quran or religion. Pashto has a history of more than 60000 years while Islam is 1400 years old. Also Pashto is culture, society, way of life and is not religion.

                          I would love to have the dastar of Khushal Baba which sprouts from Pashtunwali not from religion. Religion has its own significance but not in culture or society. I respect Quran as a great book of religion, consider it sacred and a divine scripture but does not deem it a book of science or culture or politics or economics and so on.

                          I never post insulting material but yes I post irreligious things and advocate not brazenly incorrect ideologies but the internationally accepted ideology like democracy , human rights, secularism and liberalism. I don't commit mockery of religion but want to give it its due place. This strategy is working and will work more efficiently and effectively in the near future. Just visit Kabul city and you will find it in practical form.

                          Khushaal Khan Baba struggle was mainly against the Mughals. He did fight some tribal wars but later on he repented. However his struggle was not for establishing a Taliban like empire. He was a liberal and modern sage. His religious approach was more spiritual. I have read almost all his books. He is famous for his liberal views. You have quoted a wrong Pashtun Baba in this context.

                            khsuhal khan khattak was a jehadi who fought the mughul because mughul werent islamic enough and had created a false system.
                            He was like Taliban and you can compare the mughul to modern day pakistan(unislamic yet claims to be islamic),you have no history in Afghanista or pukhtunkhwa thats why you are barking like a delusional dog.

                            take your intenationally accepted thinsg and shove it up your Osho ass.
                            I visited kabul and it is ten folds more Islamic than in the 80s/90s.
                            people of Afghanistan dont want your corruption but ISLAMIC SHARIA LAW.


                            IF KABUL IS SUCH A PLACE AS YOU SAY,THAN PLEASE BE MY GUEST AND SPEW THIS GARBAGE THERE AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.


                            ITS TIME PF STAFF HOLD THEIR ACT TOGETHER AND RESPECT THEIR MOTHERS AND FATHERS AND STOP THIS ANTI ISLAMIC MADNESS.

                              I would disagree, if legal code means a system of permissions/privileges and rights as well as restrictions and prohibitions Then the Qur'an possess both a legal code and constitution enshrined within it.

                              Islamic History demonstrates this was the case; the differences opinion of how to render and apply those laws, is the same as differences of opinion of how to apply the laws set forth in the constitution.

                              Quran has reference to few legal issues but how can it becomes a comprehensive system or way of life
                              As does the constitution of the United States, the constitution has no actual provision on abortion; they determined abortion was unconstitutional by reasoning it. And thereby made abortion on demand legal. BEAR IN MIND THIS IS AN EXAMPLE ('m not trying to initiate an abortion debate). Point being, that's how Laws work and this is what Islamic Law has too.

                              Can you run a state only with Quran?
                              No and not even Shari'ah is done by "Only the Qur'an: it is done by understanding the early generations application of "Qur'anic reasoning" in various legal issues. Using that as a guide for developing and understanding the method of extrapolating legal rulings from the Qur'an's narrative.

                              Why Muslim states have constitutions?
                              Left overs from the imperial era.


                              Why they dont adopt Quran as their constitution or legal code?
                              World pressure, presence of radicals who'll hijack the process, many reasons.

                              This never happened in the history of Islam.
                              False, read Ahkam Al Sulyaniyah by Abul Hasan Marwardi, this is precisely what happened.

                              Even in the early 30 years out of 1400 years Quran was never the only source of law.
                              Of course not; they had to use the Prophetic examples and guidelines too, but the Qur'an was USED in Legal matters and legislation; THIS is absolutely for certain and no one who has read history can legitimately deny it.


                              I have studied Quran word by word and sentence by sentence.
                              I have my doubts; but if since you have studied the Qur'an word for word , sentence by sentence.

                              then can you explain this to us sentence by sentence?







                              I understand Arabic language. What I have found in Quran is stress on beliefs and worship or morality. Legal issues are secondary in nature and that too with ethical touch.
                              We'll see how much you understand, Aren't all legal issues based on ethics otherwise what role would they have in governance unless motivated by ethical concerns?

                              I cant comprehend how Mu'tazilah system can work in religion. Intellectual analysis can be done in logical , philosophical or scientific domains not in religious ones as religion is the name of beliefs in unseen and worshiping supernatural entities.
                              Mu'tazilah system works, because it examines texts by a rational framework. It looks at the intended motive behind Legal ordinances and from their determines when their applications or enforcements are valid. For example Umar once suspended the penalties for stealing because the Islamic Law against stealing was on those who are greedy and seek to rob others for personal conquest; but people who steal out of hunger cannot be held guilty because they're driven by need.

                              Also the Mu'tazilah applied a speculative approach in determining the revelance of God in understanding the nature of existing things; on this level the Mu'tazilah approach worked for religion, science and any other field.

                              How reason can be applied to unseen and supernatural phenomena. Imam Ghazali has rightly said that heart has a reason which reason cant understand.
                              Those aspects of belief the metaphysical characteristics of the Qur'an do not play much role in the practical application of social governance and law; it's in fact an irrelevant question you're asking. These subjects deal more with speculative philosophy and hypothesis of potentials. dealing with the ontological characteristics of the cosmos.
