"And certainly We raised in every nation an apostle saying: Serve Allah and shun the Shaitan. So there were some of them whom Allah guided and there were others against whom error was due; therefore travel in the land, then see what was the.end of the rejecters. " (Nahl, 16:36)
PILGRIMAGE AS DO MUSLIMS HE FASTED AS DO MUSLIMS ... I CAN GO ON AN ON AN ON BUT HOW MANY OF U WOULD HEAR ME ..... OR WOULD U JUS SHOE ME AWAY AN CONTINUE TO ROAM IN ERROR........... WAKE UP PPL STUDY LEARN ASK GOD FOR GUIDEANCE ... LEAN NOT ON YOUR OWN UNDERSTANDING SEEK OUT THE TRUTH FOR YOUR SELF ... GOD SENT MANY MESSENGERS WITH THE SAME MESSAGE.... CONDITION YOUR HEART TO EMBRACE THE WORD OF GOD ... ALLAH IS THE GREATEST..
@MrUSERNAME98 You do realise , you think your defending Islam , but your not , all your doing is speaking of Christianity. Christiaity and Jesus was here before muslims and Islam. So actually, you pray like Jesus and Christians and follow early Christianity traditions. Jesus did not follow anyone so please dont say that he followed Muslims.
@Avorauk Sadly, you miss the point completely; all the prophets, including Jesus (peace upon him) all followed the original religion of Submission and Surrender......Islam. Adam submitted to God and was thus a Muslim.
THE WORD CHRISTIAN IS FOUND IN THE BIBLE 3TIMES CHRISTIANITY 0 THAT NAME WAS ADOPTED BY JEWS IT WAS SAID IN A MEAN CRUEL WAY...THE WORD MESSIAH WAS APPLIED 30TIMES TO KINGS 6TO HIGH PRIEST AN 2TO PATRIARCHS ..MESSIAH MEANS ANNOINTED PPL MODIFY JESUS TO THIER HEARTS DESIRE.. JESUS REMEMBERED GOD EVERY DAY CHRISTIANS ONLY ON SUNDAY ..JESUS WAS CIRCUMSIZED PAUL SAID IT WASNT NECESSARY ....JESUS CLEANED HIMSELF BEFORE EVERY PRAYER.. HE PRAYED IN PROSTRATION AS DO MUSLIMS
TRUTH BE TOLD JESUS WAS A JEW SENT TO SAVE JEWS .... "I CAME ONLY UNTO THE LOST SHEEP OF THE HOUSE OF ISREAL.....AND TO BARE THE MESSAGE THAT THERE IS ONE GOD SAME AS MOSES WITH THE COMMANDMENTS ..... MARK 12:29 ... MATTHEW 22:37..... LUKE 10:27....JESUS NEVER SPOKE OF THE TRINITY.......OR CHRISTIANITY....AS A MATTER OF FACT HE CALLED HIMSELF THE SON OF MAN 88 TIMES IN THE BIBLE ... HE NEVER CALLED HIMSELF THE SON OF GOD....REMEMBER THIS ..."OLE O ISREAL THE LORD YOUR GOD THE LORD IS ONE"
WHO ENLIGHTENED GAUTAMA BUDDHA WHEN HE MEDITATED UNDER THE TREE?
WHY DO NOT YOU BOW DOWN IN RESPECT TO THAT ENTITY WHOM BUDDHA WAS SEEKING ENLIGHTENMENT FROM.? WAKE UP AND STOP WORSHIPING THE CREATION INSTEAD OF CREATOR.
People r Ignorant They attack Islam without Understanding n Judge the Muslims(followers) Who r u to judge no one is perfect! Islam is the message/Religion God sent to all prophets/Messengers to worship One God! Moses n Jesus were Muslims n the Torah n Gospel r Divine Holy Books of Islam However they have been distorted n Changed by Men! i believe Buddah was a prophet/Messenger of God however his message was changed n distorted by Men!But God promised that Men will never change the Quran! Amen
@moeazysgc @ moeazysgc Whether it be through your faith, or any other, may you see through the shroud of hatred that blinds you. May no harm or suffering befall you. May you have clarity of vision and see that the actions you commit, cause suffering and that you may find the wisdom to stop. May you cherish and keep all beings and guard them from harm. For all beings cherish their life. These are the teachings of the Buddha, the Perfectly Awakened One. I only offer peace and love to you.
@KatchAFlick96 I accept you Peace And May God guide you! May God bless you n give peace! But why is it you assume i have hatred towards you, everyone makes mistake but the one who avoids(evil) n enjoys with good actions may God bless/guide him/her, i don't know you nor do know me! pls don't judge or assume that is just ignorant!
How strange that anyone would say Buddhists pray like Muslims when Islam is just a baby religion compared to Buddhism, Christianity and Judaism. How ignorant to even suggest it. Is this what you actually think? If so, your teachers have done a poor job of educating you.
when you are a real buddhist, you won't really care about men/women right anymore, coz at the time you must have realised that life has more things to care than just sex-equal right. We are all the same and we all all different.When you say that in buddhism,"Women have equal rights as men",it's when you look at the point of view that you are the object that get affected by outside environment.Don't be like that.Let your inside makes affection on you,no matter you r man or woman
for the followers of the pedophile barbar and their helpers but also for those who ignore their collective responsibility believing all those horrible things out there do not concern them. They ALL will be taken into their responsibility, ALL without exception !!!
OGMIOS and the 144000 predicted truthful one
In the name of the father + the son + the holy spirit. Amen
You only have to open your eyes to see the Muslim religion was form from a school of Buddhist, along with many other religion.A lot can happen in 500 years,at the end of the day we are all one.
am a Buddhist, and I know very well that Buddhist dont pray. What we do is called worshiping, to honor the Buddha and his teachingsBTW,if you ask some Buddhist in an area where they dont speak good English, they might say that they pray because they dont know the difference between the meanings of the two words ,praying and worshiping.

Let me correct you please. Religions in and of themselves are not spiteful. Spitefulness is a human trait along with love, hate and all other emotion. It is man the perverts the written word to suit them as needed.
Islam belief that there is only One and only Allah/God and no one else shall be Him. Also with the Jews & Christians but I think they divide it into 3 holy spirit/ghost, Son, Father or was it 4. Anyway, all 3 or 4, I believe comes to One. With this Oneness of Allah/God to all 3 beliefs why are they forever hating each other? Muslim > Christians, Muslim>Jews. Now, how each religions prays is not important, Muslim can claim all the honour but are you able to uphold such an honour?
Since the emergence of Islam it has been widely accepted and the number of the new converted is highly increased in spite of the differences between their colors, languages or races. There are a lot of non-Arabs who have converted to Islam
Muslims are stupid, they dont even realise that its the other way around that Muslims copied Buddhists technique!! Buddhism is much much older and more beautiful peaceful loving religion than Islam. All
Muslims want to do is create trouble and war. Whoever made this video is very small minded, uneducated and surely stupid!! Bad propaganda. Peope are much more smarter today and they can check the truth in history.
? 1corinthians 14 25And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth.
OK OK. I though Buddhists were peaceful people? Why all the negative comments. Someone said "That's the problems with Muslims is that they think their religion is the ONLY truth" (paraphrased) and than another one says "Anything written in the Buddhist's scriptures is a thousand times better than the Quran". First of all that show hypocrisy. You slam Muslims for believing that their religion is superior than you turn around and elevate Buddhism as the superior religion to Islam. tsk tsk
The negative comments is called karma. Once your fellow muslims stop hating others, than you muslims will not be hated. Once your fellow muslims start to accept others, than your people will be accepted by others. Once your fellow muslims stop causing trouble, than trouble will not follow your people. Once your fellow muslims treat all fellow beings fairly including your own women, than peace will be within you.
Your comment just proves my comment. Your like an eternal circle. I'll treat you the way you treat me, have I been rude to your religion? No and I'm Muslim. Not all Muslims cause trouble. Wow thanks for showing me the real Buddhism.
@TakiyahYeira - you sure know how to twisat words around just like all the evengelical preachers. Is that how you conclude about Buddhism when ignorance prevails?, Stereo typing everyone is equally bad, but to-date there aren't any able and or wise preachers from the Islamic world, instead there has been even more suicide bombing and ever increasing carnage being executed by teh fundamentalist, and non of you are stopping it, so what is the conclusion?.
@mcjlgoh Your just another brainwashed person of the zionism media propaganda. I haven't said anything about Buddhism, because I have my own religion and I respect others too. But this caught my eye, because I've met a lots of people who are so brainwashed by world's anti-muslim media nowadays, and I want to ask you guys one thing.. Have you actually read the Qur'an? Have you read Hadiths? Have you met real muslims? I don't think so. Your knowledge of Islam is based on what you see on BBC.
Gosh, what did I say to get such a retort from you? Frankly I don't need to read the Qu'ran, they are all teh same and I am not brainwashed. But it seems must Muslim are.
as previous comment, [ lightenedthunder ]'s comment is very true and on the base of knowledge, not on belief. We are opened eye. The god (May be Allah or Any naming) has given us mind on the top of the body indicating that you should use it as it is on the to. Only saying that my religion start from the Adam is totaly based on belief. WHAT WERE THEY BEFORE ?
3) Anagami (once-returner)(To be reborn as divine being-god)
4) Arahat (enlightened one)
An arahat is regarded as an enlightened being and there is no more rebirth. They are as pure as Buddha in conduct but they do not posses all the 9 supreme qualities the Buddha has.
Buddha is fully enlightened, regarded as the teacher of gods and men.
God has not eradicate greed, hatred (jealousy) and delusion.
Get the facts right first! Year 2009 marks the 2553 years Buddha entered parinibbana. Buddha taught for 45 years. So 2553+45=2598. Buddhism started 2598 years ago. Islam only 1400 years How can we pray like the Muslims. It should be the other way round!
Another fact, Buddhist do not pray. Buddhists pay respect or pay homage to Lord Buddha. The three bows represent Buddha, Dhamma (teaching) Sangha (monk community)
The statue is to remind us the virtue of Buddha, an example for us to follow
@lightenedthunder In Islam we don't believe that Islam is 1400 years old. Islam means surrendering to the will of Almighty God, the Creator, the Sustainer. The religion of Islam was created by Almighty God before creation. Prophet Adam, surrendered his will to God. He was a Muslim. Noah, Moses, Jesus all surrendered their will to God, all were Muslim. They prayed like they were instructed to pray by Almighty God. This video is evidence that Gautama may also have appointed as prophet by God too.
@lightenedthunder The fact is that there is a direct resemblance in the movements of prayer.
Also there is evidence from buddhist scripture that Buddha believed in a creator and so It would be hard to believe that such a great personality was not inspired by his creator. One God, One Faith, One Love
Islam is just a continuation and final chapter of the Divine Inspiration sent down to all prophets and sages.
@givethanks1314 if you are to be believed then according to your logic he must have even stole the knowledge of big bang in the universe,preservation of pharaoh's body under the sea for 3000 years which was discovered few years back-mr ymd012 can you please let me know from which religious text could he have stolen these facts?you want me to believe that GOD being a creator can have sex with his own creation Mary and beget a son and he could not be labelled as rapist or pedophile but muhammad
@givethanks1314 ya ya your GOD created everything and had sex with his own creation mary lol. what must the age difference between god and mary ?lol you mean to say your god is also a pedophile...or may be your god practices incest.all humans are suppose to be children of god then how come mary became his wife?oh i forgot christian god never even married mary like muhammad may peace of allah be on him aaameeen. married ayesha r.a . she was not so young as compared to mary vis a vis your god.lol
Respond to this video...god so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son.just look at the meaning of begotten in a dictionary.does it mean having a child with someones word?muhammad s.a.w married ayesha r.a at a very young age and that was not a taboo in his era but your jesus had an affair with a prostitute Mary Magdalene and that was a taboo in that era and still is a taboo now(this is what some of your coreligionist say) our jesus of quran is not the same son of god like yours.
@givethanks1314 Christians made Jesus divine! James n the most earliest Jewish/Christians(Ebionites) did not believe nor accept Jesus as a divine man god but the Messiah, a Prophet/Messenger the servant of God "son of God" in Hebrew! Jesus was born to Mary miraculously without a Male(father) intervention n He did miracle by the Permission of God n Obeyed n followed God's Laws n Commandments! But Christians follow the Council of Nicca's n Paul the False Apostle n the religion they created! Peace
@givethanks1314 Jesus said "My Father(The Creator) Is Greater then I" Jesus didn't Know the Hour(Judgement Day Now What Kind of god is that! Jesus was not God but His Creation a Man created by God Mirclously a Sign n a Spirit(Word) From the Father the Lord n Creator of All Allah/YHWH The One n Only! Don't believe me research it yourself! And if you reject the evidences n proof you'll just have to wait until jesus returns or you die n are resurrectedon judgement day n find out! May God bless you!
1. The Father is surely greater than the Son of Man
2. The Christian God is humble and holy
3. The Christian God is Three in One
4. The Son of Man does not know the hour
5. The Son of God is given ALL authority in heaven and on earth (Matthew 28:18)
6. Christ is both Son of Man & Son of God.
Being Son of God, Jesus was born into the world through the Holy Spirit, the tomb could not hold Him; being Son of Man, He was born from an ordinary woman Mary, died to take away our sins.
@givethanks1314 One Question Who is Worthy of Worship God(the father) or Jesus the sent/Created man by God?? Your answer Pls and No they can not be One because God is Not Three gods nor is He(God) three god headed man god like the three headed hindu man god Brahma!!! So pls stop n think before you condemn Your self!! God is One n only One stated clearly in your bible "You shall have no other gods before Me" that mean if the Jews have One god you also have One God not trinity or three in One Bs!
mohammedans fed with shit & piss have no brain, but they have a black stone as god, kiss a stone then kill a non-muslim and rape a baby. go ahead you stupid liar.
"... lie to an enemy (all non-muslims), for war is deception." ~ Mohammed the Terrorist [Ahmad, 6.459. H]

@lightenedthunder plz know that the buddha reintroduced us to buddhism ,and he is not the founder or starter of the religion, buddhism started much before the buddha , plz read abhidhamma you will understand it, buddhism is the oldest and the most moral religion
I fully support mcjlgoh in his statement, though I also have an intention of expressing the disappointment at the categorical, radical and fundamental attitude of Islam and its believers to the so-called "non-believers", who, however, have full freedom to stay well away from any religions - and this idea seems to be considered truthful not only for me but also for the majority of developed countries, governments of which granted us the freedom of religion!
Buddhists do not pray like muslims! prayer to buddhists is a practice to awaken inherent inner capacities of strength, compassion and wisdom rather than to petition external forces based on fear, idolizing, and worldly and/or heavenly gain. buddhist prayer is a form of meditation; it is a practice of inner reconditioning. Buddhist prayer replaces the negative with the virtuous and points to the blessings of LIFE!
Prayer offered by Muslims is in worship to God to "to awaken inherent inner capacities of strength, compassion and wisdom". Islamic prayer is also "a form of meditation; it is a practice of inner reconditioning.... prayer replaces the negative with the virtuous and points to the blessings of LIFE". By asking the Creator, you are also preparing for the next life. I would suggest you learn more about Islam before you start to critise it.
@Britishfever456 - There is no wisdom in Islam per say, but only things which have to do with the worship of Allah. It is said that we are slaves of Allah and we should submit to Him. Wherein lies any wisdom save that of submission to God? One fears Allah, therefore one submits to Him and does what He asks, whether it be to love others or to blow them up. Fear is based on ignorance, this being the case, it follows that whatever is based on ignorance is unstable and suffering: The entire mideast.
@matreyia You have a delusional concept of wisdom here. Wisdom is entirely God given. Almighty Allah gives it to whom he wills. If God is the Creator of the heaven and universe and everything in between, then the Creator also grants His creation, the appropriate worldly wisdom, in whichever field/ares the Creator wants. Enlightenment is based on knowledge, this being the case, those whose hearts are closed to knowledge will never be able to worship the Creator.
@Britishfever456 - Let me tell you about Allah. He is unenlightened, prone to anger, jealousy, hate, vengence, partiality, and all manner of emotional states which are destructive. Either these mental states are divine because Allah experiences them, or these traits are human and Allah has profane human traits. You know nothing of your god sir. If you know this & ignore it, you are not worthy of consideration in any sensible debate.
@Britishfever456 - Therefore sir, I say it is not I who has a delusional concept of wisdom, but it is you who has a delusional concept of Allah. A concept that you did not come to know through discover, but rather though education and the books which were fed to you in your religious schools. Feel free to correct me if I am in error. Then it might be that you have spontaneously discovered Allah and all His detailed particular traits...a fine accomplishment.
most muslim i know in my country are hypocrite. They say pray 5 times a day is good but actually excuse themselves for tea break or goes to sleep or do other naughty stuff on prayer time. During the fasting months, they all hide themselves and have their meals. They eat pork and drink and say is good but don't tell others. They are alway right, they use the word 'infidel' upon non-muslim and their mission is to kill 'infiedel' as mentioned in Quran, a worrying religion !
Correction. The revelations that form the Quran came 1400 years ago. Earlier documented revelations of God (e.g. Torah, Bible etc) started some 4000 years ago. But by default, (and if you believe in a God) there must be just one Creator that created everyone.
Interestingly, all original ways of prayers are very similar. This adds evidence that all messengers prayed the same way. It is us people who distort the truth.We (all religions) should strive to come together and not fight each other.
There are many different way to pray. Usually arise from differences in culture. like in Tibet, they would start from standing and kneel then lie face down flat then get up and start again. Or in other places are different too. But for the majority, i agree that buddhist and muslim pray in a very similar way.
Again wrong ! Buddhists pray to an idol, they have no ruku' and no sitting between two sujuds. If Islam is influenced by Buddhism, one will see that clearly and we don't.
I only want to precise that Bhudism is 1000 yrs older than islam. So if anyone have learnt how to pray it would b the muslims learning from the Bhudists.
Dul-Kapal (Budha) twice mentioned in Quran with highly praising words was Prophet of Islam like all Prophets of Islam he taught only one way ISLAM (Allah will not send every prophet with different paths- It does not make any sense at all. His all true teachings are exactly same commandments that are mentioned in original scriptures and Final scripture Quran. Pls note Source all original scriptures is ONE that is Allah. I have no any doubt in it.

Now Jesus never taught to his Followers who were just Muslims (Christian is invented term) that he is son of God or he is GOD etc, But Paul taught them. So prevailing so called Chritianity has to do noting with real teachings of Jesus, They are followers of Paul in fact. In same way Prevailing Buds have no any relation with the real teachings of Budha. They have invented their own stories and has attached them to Budha
If u read Gaspel of Budda and ponder in authentic history, It becomes so clear as sun on Sky that Budha always told people "there is only one reality" which in Arabic is "La Ilaha ILL-Allah" >>> there is no god but ONE GOD. He taught same as was taught by all prophets. Also BUDha said that after his death, his all teachings will be corrupted by deceived priests & It happened in fact
In arabic there is no "P" so Kapal is given in Quran as Kafal". If u born in New York, in High-Arabic, U can be called DUL-New York" which mean a person from New York. Quran uses the word "DUL-Kapal"--> A Person from Kapal. Bud was also known as very well in his time Kapili-->From Kapal--> in Arabic Dul-Kapal as is in Quran
Jesus spent many yr in Kapal Wasto the town where Budha (Dul-Kapal in Quran)was born in order to learn and then teach. This is historical fact that cannot be denied. Budha was prophet of GOD but later his all teachings were twisted and corupted. I have read lot lot abt Buda and I am 100 % sure that he is the DUL-KAPAL TWICE MENTIONED IN QURAN as a great person
@moinansari hahahhha funny u know nothing put ur book in the nearest bin ,read well again u know nothing but this fake book which leads to nothing but rats
@moinansari I think islam is spiteful, so I really don't care.
I really doubt that such things are happening in mecca. The sespool of islam.
I'm happy to see a picture of any mosques anywhere, where women and men pray in the same room. And please provide a clear proof of where the picture are taken.
@moinansari Yes that is a very spiteful thing to say. It is not good to proclaim one religion to be better or more valid than another. Trying to push others down does not make you look taller. What matters in the end is that one lives morally, virtuouslly, and is kind to all creatures.
@mouster333 - When men pray behind women, then we can talk about equality. If women can control themselves when praying behind men, then men should be able to do the same thing, lest they are no better than monkeys - uncontrolled in their senses.
@matreyia If the men prayed behind women, wouldn't that make them inferior (according to your logic)?
I think it is generally the preference of the women not to have to bend over in front of men. Most women share that preference. In Orthodox circles, the genders are separated completely in order to find a balance between modesty and equality.
@mouster333 - Now you are sounding a bit simplistic with the co-ed showers comment. I think it is the preference of BOTH men & women not to bend over to the opposite sex in normal situations. HOWEVER, we speak not of normal situations, we speak of a holy setting where bending over to pray should have absolutely no connotations of sex. Why r u so pre-occupied with sex, even in a prayer space. Your mind should be on your God regardless of whether a man or woman's ass is in front of you.
@mouster333 - If men prayed behind women by rules create by women, then that would make the men inferior in the eyes of the women.
Tell me, where here have I said that women were inferior to men? I have only asserted that in Islam, women are treated unequally. You like to run wild with your agitated mind and create falsehoods.
I have said, it should be abolished. I have said, first come first served and NOT based on male or female. That arcane system is ignorant. Women have proven themselves.
@matreyia Oh I see. So if women choose to pray behind men, then it's okay?
Abolishing something that the people of the faith agree is appropriate is not your place. That is a fascist mindset - you assume that you know better for people than they know for themselves.
It is merely a matter of modesty. If I choose to be modest, why do you care? As I have asked you before- does stripping women of their modesty, standing them nude in front of men, liberate them?
@mouster333 - If a woman has the freedom to choose to be behind a man ANYWHERE let alone in prayer, it is her choice. We speak of the lack of choice for the woman, we do not speak of what they should or should not do. Again you have lost the point completely. I don't care if you as a woman choose to be behind a man, or be beaten by a man or be the beater of a man. That is not my concern. What is my concern is the fact that there are rules which PROHIBIT women from choosing. Still don't get it?
@mouster333 - If you want to follow your religious leader, do so. That is not my concern. Again, my concern is that your religion has an extreme male bias and has rules which show this. I don't know why you keep asking if what I think about any woman who wants to do this or that. I don't care. I only care about the male dominated and biased regulations which exists in the religion itself.
@mouster333 -"If I choose to be modest, why do you care? As I have asked you before- does stripping women of their modesty, standing them nude in front of men, liberate them?"
Again, I don't care if you want to be modest. Neither do did I go to the extremes that you did in saying that women should strip naked to liberate them. How foolish and simplistic.
Why say u only women when I say BOTH men and women. U r sexist against women yet u r a woman when u keep saying such things. Equality.
@mouster333 - You seem to be under the false impression that I am against modesty or want to abolish modesty itself...when all along I have only advocated equality for both sexes. Your mind can't seem to get that. I prefer a modest woman, but I can also respect her right to stand or sit in front of me if she were there first. If woman liked to beach in the nude, it is her choice, I have a choice to not date her because I am not into that. Or are you still confused? True morality is never forced.
@matreyia That is your choice. You have choices, and so other people. Women are not even obligated to pray inside of mosques the way men are- men have additional obligations that women are excused from. They don't even need to be in the mosque at all in order to pray properly, but some choose to go. In an attempt to respect modesty, they pray separately from men. This is true in many Orthodox traditions, as I have pointed out numerous times.
@matreyia Yes, well, gender separation is appropriate. Other religions practice this as well- notably Orthodox Jews and some Orthodox Christian sects. The reason? People are there to pray, not be distracted by people of the opposite gender.
Now, speaking from my own perspective, I think women have far more aesthetically pleasing forms, so that (in this instance) they removed the more pleasing form from the front.
It is not "proof" that Muslim women are inferior. It only shows their dignity.
@mouster333 -Shows women's dignity to whom? Men? You don't even see you are speaking in sexist terms because you are so brainwashed to think that it is the way things are or should be.
Perhaps one day, you should sit down and ask yourself why men should not be subjected to modesty rules, or perhaps they should wear burqas to hide their faces so that they don't arouse women? Men who can't control their minds or bodies force absurd laws on women & expect to be respected? This is not equality.
@matreyia Is your answer that we should all behave in a dignified way? Yes, men should be subjected to modesty rules, and they are. In fact, the Qur'an subjects men first, before women.
What is equality to you? Should I take off my clothes in front of you, or perhaps bend over in front of you- would that make me your equal?
@mouster333 - How would your naked body make you equal to me or anyone else? And bending over? You've missed the point completely.
Equality is creating laws which apply to both men and women unless it is biologically impossible. Sharia law is created by hard core men. Please correct me if I am wrong. Has there been a single woman whom has created any edicts in the Sharia lexicon? If so, she is an anomaly. That u do no see the inequality in this fact amazes me. Male created laws governing women.
It is your opinion that these laws set men above women. It is my opinion that they set women above men in this instance - by honoring women's generally-held desire to not put their tush in a man's face. Do you think, were you to "abolish" the rules, women would start praying in front of men? Honestly?
@mouster333 - Sharia law is advocated by hardcore Muslims. Indeed they say you are not a Muslim unless you live under these Muslim laws. If you do not like Sharia does not matter. It is still there and belongs in the Islamic culture, created by males. Just like Christian opinions on women speaking in the church. Go read Timothy in the Bible as other books to see what I mean.
Even without Sharia, basic Mosque rules are obviously sexist.
@mouster333 - No, Hardcore Muslims as in the Muslims who adhere to Sharia law and want all other Muslims to do the same. You did not understand this phrase, that you had to mock it?
@mouster333 - If men can marry many women like Mohammed did, can women marry many men? If Mohammed could marry a child younger than ten yrs. old, can women also marry little boys at that age?
Madam, you claims of modest of men in Islam are baseless. Your prophet is the supreme example of this. Women do not have equal rights to men in Islam. The laws are clearly male biased. If this were not so, then you would have said yes to these questions. Thank you.
@matreyia First of all, freedom to marry whomever we choose is a basic human right, so long as that person also chooses us and is of legal age. Second of all, polygamy benefits women and children much, much, much more than it benefits men. Unless, of course, you're reducing the concept of marriage to simple sexuality, which I know you would never do because you decry any emphasis on sexuality.
@mouster333 - "freedom to marry whomever we choose is a basic human right, so long as that person also chooses us and is of legal age"
Fine, then is there an established Universal Legal Age which is resistant to alteration? Who determines this age? How long is it in effect? What location is it in effect? This kind of simple definition is open to all manner of abuse.
Mohammed was supposedly the perfect example for all men to follow. Then you see the absurd ramifications to this statement?
@mouster333 - ...because if Mohammed was a perfect example, then it follows all men, Muslim or not should imitate his ways. Don't you find it suspicious that the Quran says that Allah gave Mohammed special privilege to marry whomever he wished? A bit convenient I would say.
It is an excuse of man of wanting to marry more than one wife, so Islam is the gateway or a passport for men to enjoy to have 4 wives so the wives can work for them for sex and money so that they done have to work.
@mouster333 - I would also be interested in why you say polygamy benefits women and children better than it does men. It would make more sense that it is more harmful to the women and children than men since there is only one man who has less time to be with many women and many children. He spreads himself too thin and makes for a poor teacher of the children. One man, one family is easier to manage and teach the children.
@mouster333 - I do not complain about gender separation if it means women and men pray in different rooms or buildings. But it is absurd to make women be in the back and men in the front. It should be first come first served.
In Burma, monks chant or teach with big fans in front of their faces to show their modesty & help keep all people focused, undistracted. THAT is what I call true equality. They do not make the women put on masks, but the monks themselves do that for their sakes.
@matreyia Are you speaking of Buddhism? Because Buddhism is hardly equal when it comes to gender. Women are quite beneath men in Buddhism- womanhood is seen as a lower level of reincarnation than manhood. Men are higher - closer to nirvana - than women.
@mouster333 - I just gave you one little sample sutra quote which negates your supposition about the status of women according to the Buddha. How many would you like me to supply you before you realize that you do not know the Buddha's thoughts about the subject?
@matreyia I never claimed to know the Buddha's thoughts on the subject- any more than you claim to know Muhammad's thoughts on the subject of segregated prayer. We are talking about cultural practices.
@mouster333 - If we are talking about cultural practices, does that make it not sexist? It doesn't matter if it is a cultural tradition or practice, it is still sexist. Surely sexism exists in most cultures, including Buddhist ones. If you like I can properly point out what I think is sexist in Buddhist culture...then I hope u understand that I do not defend sexist views just because it is Buddhist or anything else I may be interested in.
@BelieveNoGod Women are hardly equals in Buddhism, either. A woman is considered lower than a man- if one is born female, they have stepped backwards in their own evolution. Look it up.
buddhist do not do anything like muslims! this is a mistake! buddhist do not pray at all! buddha is not a god! how can you pray to a dad person if hes not even a god! and buddhist can bow in anyway because they don't pray because you cannot pray to a dead person that is not a god!
They dont pray like us.Its alot diffrent, And for all of those rude comments about Islam, go educate yourself about Islam before you go off sterotyping us. Islam is not only a religon, but a way of life. Instead of saying rude things,why dont u educate urself first?
If you insult our Buddhist way of life, you are in fact insulting your own. You insult about religions being hating? You are hating right now. =) Peace x x x
None of anything you said makes sense... If a person is being peaceful.. they are peaceful. and what the fuck with the fighting dumbass. If you can bash other religions I can bash you.
One also has to consider that within Islam the physical
act of prostration with the head at its focal point is indicative of mans inability to grasp the magnitude of the Essence of Allah, as well as it being indicative of
the prophet's tittle 'the unlettered prophet' that which goes beyond words (i.e.love).
Muslims do prostrate in prayer but these quick prostrations are discouraged for Muslims. There is a saying in Islam (hadith) which says we shouldn't be in a hurry to finish praying and look like chickens pecking the ground. Also people before have prostrated to kings, idols etc etc and furthermore there is a verse in the bible in which Jesus is said to have 'fallen on his face and prayed to God' (ie-prostrated). It is an old form of worship/respect/reverence and humbling
it s more muslims that are praying like buddhists. Plus, it s more about inner questionning, not much of a same prayer concept, both are respectable... Just different.
Not really. The Muslim Prayer is vastly different from the Buddhist one. We have ruku', iktidal and such. Besides, the Prophet Muhammad never met Buddhists or seen any to say that he copied from them.
Actually, I won't associate Buddhism with monotheism. They worship an idol which is absolutely abhorred in Islam. And does Buddhism actually believe in God or do they just believe in Buddha ? Is Buddha a god to them ?
muhammad was a prophet of god,.. muslims aren't supposed to worship him. and they shouldn't worship idols.... even though a lot of muslims "idolize" muhammad and worship him like christians worship jesus. but that goes against the religion.... but every religion has it's idiots and wise people should not judge religions based on it's idiots.

4 stages of enlightenment in Buddhism
1) stream-enterer (Sotapan)
2) sakadagami (7 returner)
3) Anagami (once-returner)(To be reborn as divine being-god)
4) Arahat (enlightened one)
An arahat is regarded as an enlightened being and there is no more rebirth. They are as pure as Buddha in conduct but they do not posses all the 9 supreme qualities the Buddha has.
Buddha is fully enlightened, regarded as the teacher of gods and men.
God has not eradicate greed, hatred (jealousy) and delusion.

Get the facts right first! Year 2009 marks the 2553 years Buddha entered parinibbana. Buddha taught for 45 years. So 2553+45=2598. Buddhism started 2598 years ago. Islam only 1400 years How can we pray like the Muslims. It should be the other way round!
Another fact, Buddhist do not pray. Buddhists pay respect or pay homage to Lord Buddha. The three bows represent Buddha, Dhamma (teaching) Sangha (monk community)

@lightenedthunder In Islam we don't believe that Islam is 1400 years old. Islam means surrendering to the will of Almighty God, the Creator, the Sustainer. The religion of Islam was created by Almighty God before creation. Prophet Adam, surrendered his will to God. He was a Muslim. Noah, Moses, Jesus all surrendered their will to God, all were Muslim. They prayed like they were instructed to pray by Almighty God. This video is evidence that Gautama may also have appointed as prophet by God too.

Buddhists do not pray like muslims! prayer to buddhists is a practice to awaken inherent inner capacities of strength, compassion and wisdom rather than to petition external forces based on fear, idolizing, and worldly and/or heavenly gain. buddhist prayer is a form of meditation; it is a practice of inner reconditioning. Buddhist prayer replaces the negative with the virtuous and points to the blessings of LIFE!

Prayer offered by Muslims is in worship to God to "to awaken inherent inner capacities of strength, compassion and wisdom". Islamic prayer is also "a form of meditation; it is a practice of inner reconditioning.... prayer replaces the negative with the virtuous and points to the blessings of LIFE". By asking the Creator, you are also preparing for the next life. I would suggest you learn more about Islam before you start to critise it.

@Britishfever456 - There is no wisdom in Islam per say, but only things which have to do with the worship of Allah. It is said that we are slaves of Allah and we should submit to Him. Wherein lies any wisdom save that of submission to God? One fears Allah, therefore one submits to Him and does what He asks, whether it be to love others or to blow them up. Fear is based on ignorance, this being the case, it follows that whatever is based on ignorance is unstable and suffering: The entire mideast.

@matreyia You have a delusional concept of wisdom here. Wisdom is entirely God given. Almighty Allah gives it to whom he wills. If God is the Creator of the heaven and universe and everything in between, then the Creator also grants His creation, the appropriate worldly wisdom, in whichever field/ares the Creator wants. Enlightenment is based on knowledge, this being the case, those whose hearts are closed to knowledge will never be able to worship the Creator.

Correction. The revelations that form the Quran came 1400 years ago. Earlier documented revelations of God (e.g. Torah, Bible etc) started some 4000 years ago. But by default, (and if you believe in a God) there must be just one Creator that created everyone.
Interestingly, all original ways of prayers are very similar. This adds evidence that all messengers prayed the same way. It is us people who distort the truth.We (all religions) should strive to come together and not fight each other.

There are many different way to pray. Usually arise from differences in culture. like in Tibet, they would start from standing and kneel then lie face down flat then get up and start again. Or in other places are different too. But for the majority, i agree that buddhist and muslim pray in a very similar way.

I can't c Buddhists pray like muslims, if anything, it must b the other way around.
muslims pray like Buddhists, since Bhuddism is some 1000 yr older than islam.

Again wrong ! Buddhists pray to an idol, they have no ruku' and no sitting between two sujuds. If Islam is influenced by Buddhism, one will see that clearly and we don't.

I only want to precise that Bhudism is 1000 yrs older than islam. So if anyone have learnt how to pray it would b the muslims learning from the Bhudists.

Dul-Kapal (Budha) twice mentioned in Quran with highly praising words was Prophet of Islam like all Prophets of Islam he taught only one way ISLAM (Allah will not send every prophet with different paths- It does not make any sense at all. His all true teachings are exactly same commandments that are mentioned in original scriptures and Final scripture Quran. Pls note Source all original scriptures is ONE that is Allah. I have no any doubt in it.

Now Jesus never taught to his Followers who were just Muslims (Christian is invented term) that he is son of God or he is GOD etc, But Paul taught them. So prevailing so called Chritianity has to do noting with real teachings of Jesus, They are followers of Paul in fact. In same way Prevailing Buds have no any relation with the real teachings of Budha. They have invented their own stories and has attached them to Budha

If u read Gaspel of Budda and ponder in authentic history, It becomes so clear as sun on Sky that Budha always told people "there is only one reality" which in Arabic is "La Ilaha ILL-Allah" >>> there is no god but ONE GOD. He taught same as was taught by all prophets. Also BUDha said that after his death, his all teachings will be corrupted by deceived priests & It happened in fact

In arabic there is no "P" so Kapal is given in Quran as Kafal". If u born in New York, in High-Arabic, U can be called DUL-New York" which mean a person from New York. Quran uses the word "DUL-Kapal"--> A Person from Kapal. Bud was also known as very well in his time Kapili-->From Kapal--> in Arabic Dul-Kapal as is in Quran

Jesus spent many yr in Kapal Wasto the town where Budha (Dul-Kapal in Quran)was born in order to learn and then teach. This is historical fact that cannot be denied. Budha was prophet of GOD but later his all teachings were twisted and corupted. I have read lot lot abt Buda and I am 100 % sure that he is the DUL-KAPAL TWICE MENTIONED IN QURAN as a great person

@mouster333 - When men pray behind women, then we can talk about equality. If women can control themselves when praying behind men, then men should be able to do the same thing, lest they are no better than monkeys - uncontrolled in their senses.

@matreyia If the men prayed behind women, wouldn't that make them inferior (according to your logic)?
I think it is generally the preference of the women not to have to bend over in front of men. Most women share that preference. In Orthodox circles, the genders are separated completely in order to find a balance between modesty and equality.
Perhaps we should have co-ed showers, too? ;)
mouster333 1 year ago
@mouster333 - Now you are sounding a bit simplistic with the co-ed showers comment. I think it is the preference of BOTH men & women not to bend over to the opposite sex in normal situations. HOWEVER, we speak not of normal situations, we speak of a holy setting where bending over to pray should have absolutely no connotations of sex. Why r u so pre-occupied with sex, even in a prayer space. Your mind should be on your God regardless of whether a man or woman's ass is in front of you.
matreyia 1 year ago
@mouster333 - If men prayed behind women by rules create by women, then that would make the men inferior in the eyes of the women.
Tell me, where here have I said that women were inferior to men? I have only asserted that in Islam, women are treated unequally. You like to run wild with your agitated mind and create falsehoods.
I have said, it should be abolished. I have said, first come first served and NOT based on male or female. That arcane system is ignorant. Women have proven themselves.
matreyia 1 year ago
@matreyia Oh I see. So if women choose to pray behind men, then it's okay?
Abolishing something that the people of the faith agree is appropriate is not your place. That is a fascist mindset - you assume that you know better for people than they know for themselves.
It is merely a matter of modesty. If I choose to be modest, why do you care? As I have asked you before- does stripping women of their modesty, standing them nude in front of men, liberate them?
mouster333 1 year ago
@mouster333 - If a woman has the freedom to choose to be behind a man ANYWHERE let alone in prayer, it is her choice. We speak of the lack of choice for the woman, we do not speak of what they should or should not do. Again you have lost the point completely. I don't care if you as a woman choose to be behind a man, or be beaten by a man or be the beater of a man. That is not my concern. What is my concern is the fact that there are rules which PROHIBIT women from choosing. Still don't get it?

@mouster333 - You seem to be under the false impression that I am against modesty or want to abolish modesty itself...when all along I have only advocated equality for both sexes. Your mind can't seem to get that. I prefer a modest woman, but I can also respect her right to stand or sit in front of me if she were there first. If woman liked to beach in the nude, it is her choice, I have a choice to not date her because I am not into that. Or are you still confused? True morality is never forced.
matreyia 1 year ago
@matreyia That is your choice. You have choices, and so other people. Women are not even obligated to pray inside of mosques the way men are- men have additional obligations that women are excused from. They don't even need to be in the mosque at all in order to pray properly, but some choose to go. In an attempt to respect modesty, they pray separately from men. This is true in many Orthodox traditions, as I have pointed out numerous times.
mouster333 1 year ago
@mouster333 - "...to keep them from having their tushies up in men's faces."
And what about consideration for the women who would have men's tushies up in the women's faces? I guess it doesn't matter since they are women.
matreyia 1 year ago
@matreyia Yes, well, gender separation is appropriate. Other religions practice this as well- notably Orthodox Jews and some Orthodox Christian sects. The reason? People are there to pray, not be distracted by people of the opposite gender.
Now, speaking from my own perspective, I think women have far more aesthetically pleasing forms, so that (in this instance) they removed the more pleasing form from the front.
It is not "proof" that Muslim women are inferior. It only shows their dignity.
mouster333 1 year ago
@mouster333 -Shows women's dignity to whom? Men? You don't even see you are speaking in sexist terms because you are so brainwashed to think that it is the way things are or should be.
Perhaps one day, you should sit down and ask yourself why men should not be subjected to modesty rules, or perhaps they should wear burqas to hide their faces so that they don't arouse women? Men who can't control their minds or bodies force absurd laws on women & expect to be respected? This is not equality.
matreyia 1 year ago
@matreyia Is your answer that we should all behave in a dignified way? Yes, men should be subjected to modesty rules, and they are. In fact, the Qur'an subjects men first, before women.
What is equality to you? Should I take off my clothes in front of you, or perhaps bend over in front of you- would that make me your equal?
mouster333 1 year ago
@mouster333 - How would your naked body make you equal to me or anyone else? And bending over? You've missed the point completely.
Equality is creating laws which apply to both men and women unless it is biologically impossible. Sharia law is created by hard core men. Please correct me if I am wrong. Has there been a single woman whom has created any edicts in the Sharia lexicon? If so, she is an anomaly. That u do no see the inequality in this fact amazes me. Male created laws governing women.
matreyia 1 year ago
@matreyia Who is talking about Sharia law here?
It is your opinion that these laws set men above women. It is my opinion that they set women above men in this instance - by honoring women's generally-held desire to not put their tush in a man's face. Do you think, were you to "abolish" the rules, women would start praying in front of men? Honestly?
mouster333 1 year ago
@mouster333 - Sharia law is advocated by hardcore Muslims. Indeed they say you are not a Muslim unless you live under these Muslim laws. If you do not like Sharia does not matter. It is still there and belongs in the Islamic culture, created by males. Just like Christian opinions on women speaking in the church. Go read Timothy in the Bible as other books to see what I mean.
Even without Sharia, basic Mosque rules are obviously sexist.

Madam, you claims of modest of men in Islam are baseless. Your prophet is the supreme example of this. Women do not have equal rights to men in Islam. The laws are clearly male biased. If this were not so, then you would have said yes to these questions. Thank you.

@matreyia First of all, freedom to marry whomever we choose is a basic human right, so long as that person also chooses us and is of legal age. Second of all, polygamy benefits women and children much, much, much more than it benefits men. Unless, of course, you're reducing the concept of marriage to simple sexuality, which I know you would never do because you decry any emphasis on sexuality.
mouster333 1 year ago
@mouster333 - "freedom to marry whomever we choose is a basic human right, so long as that person also chooses us and is of legal age"
Fine, then is there an established Universal Legal Age which is resistant to alteration? Who determines this age? How long is it in effect? What location is it in effect? This kind of simple definition is open to all manner of abuse.
Mohammed was supposedly the perfect example for all men to follow. Then you see the absurd ramifications to this statement?

It is an excuse of man of wanting to marry more than one wife, so Islam is the gateway or a passport for men to enjoy to have 4 wives so the wives can work for them for sex and money so that they done have to work.

@mouster333 - I would also be interested in why you say polygamy benefits women and children better than it does men. It would make more sense that it is more harmful to the women and children than men since there is only one man who has less time to be with many women and many children. He spreads himself too thin and makes for a poor teacher of the children. One man, one family is easier to manage and teach the children.

@mouster333 - I do not complain about gender separation if it means women and men pray in different rooms or buildings. But it is absurd to make women be in the back and men in the front. It should be first come first served.
In Burma, monks chant or teach with big fans in front of their faces to show their modesty & help keep all people focused, undistracted. THAT is what I call true equality. They do not make the women put on masks, but the monks themselves do that for their sakes.

One also has to consider that within Islam the physical
act of prostration with the head at its focal point is indicative of mans inability to grasp the magnitude of the Essence of Allah, as well as it being indicative of
the prophet's tittle 'the unlettered prophet' that which goes beyond words (i.e.love).

Muslims do prostrate in prayer but these quick prostrations are discouraged for Muslims. There is a saying in Islam (hadith) which says we shouldn't be in a hurry to finish praying and look like chickens pecking the ground. Also people before have prostrated to kings, idols etc etc and furthermore there is a verse in the bible in which Jesus is said to have 'fallen on his face and prayed to God' (ie-prostrated). It is an old form of worship/respect/reverence and humbling
