Ask a Muslim

[aneeshm]

There's a Muslim answering poster questions over at CFC. His replies are..... illuminating, really. Post your questions here, and I'll ask them to him and post here his replies.

Or, in case anyone is a CFC member, here is the thread.

Errr.. me and Ramo grew up in Muslim households. Just say no to CFC!

If we bring these threads to Poly OT, Imran could make history as the first answerer .

I admit being active for quite a long time at CFC after CIV3 was out

But you are not representative of the non-liberals out there. That guy answers everything from the non-denominational fundamentalist point of view, which is what is interesting about this. Till now, he has supported polygamy, called homosexuality a major sin, said that (any and all) music is bad for the soul, that all other religions are false, that all Muslims are superior to all non-Muslims, that women should wear the full hijab, that......

First off, be wary of some random "muslim" poster on teh internets.

The guy looks genuine enough.

[Imran Siddiqui]

So, you've checked his resume?

[Arrian]

Eh, maybe he is, maybe he isn't. Tough to say if you've just come across him. I'd be wary of possible trollage.

I said "looks" - not "is".

[aneeshm]

Anyway - does nobody have any questions?

[Arrian]

Anyway, as to the subjects you've mentioned, I've little doubt that a conservative/radical muslim would give those sorts of answers. Much like a fundy Christian would give similar ones (they would clearly differ on polygamy).

This is surprising... how?

Polytubbies seeing trolls everywhere - I wonder why that is

It isn't. If you want any questions answered by an orthodox or fundamentalist Muslim, ask here. That is the whole point of this thread.

Once bitten, twice shy

What do you want, aneeshm? A bunch of posts declaring that Islam is bad (and, ergo, Hindus for the win!)?
