Russian youth learn ancient craft of painting icons

[cybrid1940]

So divine, so much soul in this art.

So divine most of us cannot understand.

So divine, beautifully expressed by God on human hands.

Just gorgeous!

if ummnusaybah1 think of icon as paganism, he should be consistent and charge muslims of paganism along this line of argument for worshipping kaabah & black stone (hajar aswad).

[trupoed6]

Don't show your islamic ignorance please. People don't worship icons, people praying saints depicted in these icons. So they show their respect and ask saints for promotion to God.

@cortezawwris

Simple answer to your ignorance, May Allah guide you:

Say, "He is Allah , [who is] One,

Allah , the Eternal Refuge.

He neither begets nor is born,

Nor is there to Him any equivalent."

[Ummnusaybah1]

haha, this is pathetic 'this is prayer in colour' what rubbish, she says she worships the icon, a picture that is made from the hand of a man, God is far above what they ascribe to Him, this is called PAGANISM!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cortezawwris]

@Ummnusaybah1 Clearly you have no understand of whats going on and jump to answer out of your ignorance and rudeness. There would be no point in trying to explain it to you. Least of all someone who seems to contradict themselves by y insulting someone for wrongly speaking for god when they themselves are doing the same thing in the statement strangely. But alas your ignorance would prevent you from understanding what I am saying and may god help you blind eyes.

@Ummnusaybah1 : Your ignorance on this subject is apparent.  Your disrepect and bigotry is coming through loud and clear as well.

[isabellibrizzi]

@Ummnusaybah1 - Just because you don't understand something doesn't mean you should be so disrespectful. Your lashing out at something about which you are clearly ignorant. Is that what your religion has taught you, to be mean and hateful toward others? Very sad.
