I Am Enjoying Being A Muslim

A sin can never be turned into obedience by the "good intention".

We should not wonder why God doesn't grant all our wishes immediately, but rather we should give thanks that He doesn't punish us immediately for all of our mistakes. God is the Most Merciful. I learned that the best of sinners are those who repent.

The one who repents from a sin is like the one who has not committed a sin. Every righteous person has a past, and every sinner has a future.

[b]Sins to a heart are like oil drops on a cloth—unless we wash it immediately and vigorously, it will permanently stain.[/b]

But then what of lying being encouraged if it propagates islam?

@pianoplayingsteve Lying is forbidden in Islam, and it's clear in the Quran. Anyone claims otherwise is either trying to spread misinformation or ignorant of Islam.

@Madeleine Many Islamic scholars would disagree with you.

@pianoplayingsteve I'm not talking about Islamic scholars. I'm talking about Islam. The book of authority of Islam is the Quran, and it's what God will judge us by. Islamic scholars are people who have their own opinions, but they are not necessarily right and we are not required to follow their opinions.

@Madeleine Okay. Then what of people that executed people at the command of muhammad?

@pianoplayingsteve Give me an example.
