    That is an interpretation of Islam by one person who has a website.

    If it were true for all Islam, the entire Islamic Golden Age would not have happened.

    Where do you think we got things like distillation and algebra from?

      the people who you are referring to were from mutazila (who were a part of Ilm al-kalam), who were slowly genocided by hanbalites, nowadays they are as good as murtads/shia, (i.e. dead) because sunnis count them as apostates/khawarij

      and the website i used is run by meccan authorites (yk the heart of islam)

        For someone with your username and apparent obsession with Islam based on your post history, you don’t seem to realize that there is no one Islamic authority.

        There’s no such thing as a pope of Islam. In fact, Mecca is controlled by Sunni Wahabbists. They don’t even speak for all Sunni Muslims.

        And it’s pretty sad that you need an ethnically Jewish atheist like me to explain that to you.

              not really these are authentic muslim scholars and they cite both religious and historically accurate sources to justify their position
