I am a revert to Islam from a very orthodox Christian family.
However my hunger to delve deep into Islam and other religions
never ceased. The sad part of the story is that I never found
anyone able to give at least most of the answers for the questions
I ask. But your newsletter seems to be doing a good job.
Here are a few questions I wish you could answer.
a. Why aren't Islamic missionaries
active the way Christian missionaries are? Won't Islam grow much
faster and misunderstandings removed if there
are good scholars to preach the faith? Why is there such a slack
among Muslims?
b. Is it permissible in Islam to sponsor
an orphan? Not adoption. Something like sponsoring his education,
etc.?
c. Are the views of the so-called 'terrorists'
like bin Laden really wrong or justifiable? I mean should
a Muslim support his activities? Can children and
innocent people be killed in wars when the prophet had declared
not to do so? ...Read |

Is a Muslim woman permitted to go out for a job (organization
belongs to Muslims with all women staff) even if her husband can
