- nyolfen 6y agoit is islamic, you just believe it is heterodox. just like any religion, there is not one true islam, but an intertwined cluster of sometimes contradictory cultural practices.
- gher-shyu3i 6y agoNot true. Scholars can differ on the meaning of certain texts, but all the scholars do their best to follow said texts to the best of their understanding, without retorting to loopholes because those are prohibited.
- nyolfen 6y agoyou: "these are loopholes. these other people say so." them: "these are not loopholes. these other people say so." all divine authority is mediated by men.
- gher-shyu3i 6y agoThe difference is that "them" are not scholars. We don't give credibility to any random person that attempts to derive jurisdiction.
- nyolfen 6y agoyes, but different scholars come to different conclusions, resulting in many islams
- gher-shyu3i 6y agoNot true. Islam inherently encompasses different points of view, as long as they are based on correct and proper evidence. Of course, this is not a blanket statement, since there are core immutable concepts in Islam, the "roots" to to speak. Minor things can have differing views as long as they are based on evidence.
