Very interesting reading. The creed of Faith.
It condemns reasoning, especially on theological matters. Muslins are forbidden to debate innovators and theologians. I give you fair warning.

It directly contradicts Jesus who said it was good to save a life on the Sabboth. Islam says that to give a choking man wine is forbidden.
That hardly sounds like the last word in testaments to God.

This forum recently experienced strong claims for Buddhism and was also accompanied by references. The key reference was the Lotus Sutra. So I read it. Turns out Buddhism is very strongly sexest. Women cannot become Buddhas, only men. There was once a woman who was so qualified that she first performed the miracle of turning into a man, and then she could become a Buddha.

So I give you fair warning not to debate theology lest you stray from the faith for doing the forbidden. Judiasm, in contrast, has a prayer in the High Holyday services that praises doubt. The Islamic disregard for life and reason requires explanation from you.
