The Major Sins Series - Not Fasting Ramadan- Abu Usama 11/17

Breaking the fast of Ramadhan or not fasting in that month without a valid excuse.

The major sins are those acts which have been forbidden by Allah in the Quran and by His Messenger (PBUH) in the Sunnah and which have been made clear by the actions of the first righteous generation of Muslims, the Companions of the Prophet (s.a.w.s).
Allah (s.w.t) says concerning them in the Glorious Quran:
If you avoid the great sins which you are forbidden to do, We shall expiate from you your (small) sins, and admit you to a Noble Entrance (i.e. Paradise) [Quran 4:31]

Although the major sins are many, close to seventy according to Ibn 'Abbas (RA), the following hadeeth highlights the seriousness of such sins:

The Prophet (PBUH) said: "Avoid the seven things that doom a person to Hell." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, what are they?" He said, "Associating others with Allah (shirk); witchcraft (sihr); killing a soul whom Allah has forbidden to kill, except for a lawful reason; consuming riba; consuming the property of orphans; fleeing from the battlefield; and slandering chaste and innocent believing women." [Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 2615; Muslim, 89]

It is therefore of paramount importance that Muslims gains knowledge about these major sins and do their utmost to avoid them. In this major sins series, Imaam Abu Usamah goes through the book "Kitaab ul-Kabair" (Book of major sins) written by the great scholar of Islam, Imaam Adh-Dhahabi (rahimahullah) (d. 748 AH). Abu Usamah uses his dynamic and captivating style to expound upon each chapter of the book correcting any weak hadeeth that may be present. (more)

5:48 "Ramadaan to Ramadaan, they are expiation's of your sins IF you avoid the major sins." Does this apply to the major sins previously committed at the time of Jahalulia (Arrogance, denial etc..) I mean what if major sins were committed, then Allah swt doesn't forgive sins, I don't understand. can someone explain, jazakalh khiarun.

Allah forgives those who repent sincerely.

Allthough I'm a muslim I don't talk bad about your religion...yes I would like everyone to become muslim or atlest look into it but if your devout to your faith I hope the God will give you guidance. Hey to each his own...please know what this holy book means before bringing out such harsh comments. Peace Be upon You th0.

I just knew i shouldnt have got into this retarded argument with mr islamophobe retard; his extreme envy of this superior religion compels him to search for islamic material on the web and espouse retarded hatred.

If you had an education, you may have gone to university - an muslim invention. The libraries in the al-andalus (Spain) era (600+ years ago) contained research material which leaves european medical surgeons astounded in this age (i am a medical doctor) myself).

THE END

Question: If breaking Ramadan without a proper excuse is WORSE then Stealing in an Oppressive amount, WORSE then drinking Alcohol, and WORSE then Adultery... Then does the one who does this have to suffer the punishments of all Three? I.e. Whipped, Amputated, and then lastly Stoned to death?

These are all by the way Hadith, NOT QURAN.

Nice speech

[SoldierCyfix]

lol who cares, i dont care if you were Issac Newton, your still a moronic follower of an ancient religion. that alone is enough to discredit the best of academic degrees.

"envy" your religion? please dont flatter yourself and your cult, am far above you.

plus there would be no need to insult me unless you have already lost you ace in the hole (Islam contributing to science)

you can not prove the non-existent, but similarly: something that does not exist can also not be disproved.

[SoldierCyfix]

first of all, learn to spell. and second. what is an "Unlimited Conscience", stop pulling crap out of your ass, thats the job of fiction writers and people who made up your religion.

"Nothing can create only nothing is a rational viewpoint", am i missing commas or do you just fail at philosophy.

"modern science consolidates what this 'old book' foretold 1400 years ago"

when did that happen, and by who?. go ahead and name one scientific discovery from religion, i dare you

[rizla65]

ignorant? Listen up retard, i dont do debates on these comment pages so will address this only once.

Arrival at the belief at there has to be an unlmited conscience that created all limted matter is achieved through a rational thought process.

Nothing can create only nothing is a rational viewpoint but mr retard atheist would rather be irrational and argue the toss.

Furthermore modern science consolidates what this 'old book' foretold 1400 years ago but alas 'blinded by disbelief'.

[SoldierCyfix]

oh of course, how could i have ever doubted an ancient book written at a time when people were just starting to domesticate foods not to hold the answer that modern science still cant figure out.

and why are only you Muslims the only ones who know?, what about the Greeks and Christians, and buddists (the list goes on)

the Atheist debate can go on for months, in the end you will still have no evidence, just words of mouth and an old book.

you are not only ignorant, but a blind follower

[rizla65]

instead of all this verbal masturbation, why doesnt your 'liberated' retardation bring an intellectual argument for apostasizing from the truth?

Instead you concede your ignorance by accepting that you 'dont know. when asked "why are we here"'.

Well we (muslims) are fortunate to not self-diagnose ourselves as inept retards and know the reason for our existence.
