This is a clip of Irshad Manji telling her mother she does not need to obey Allah's commands. I was going to make a video reply, but I'll just let you know what I think right here.

She says that she does not pray like Muslims pray but she has her own way of prayer and then she tells her Mother "is your God so angry that he will not appreciate my words of gratitude that I've offered."

I think Christians have the same attitude as this woman. They think they can pray in whatever form they want and since God is a merciful God, he will accept their prayer. According to Muslim scholars, Allah will accept a persons sincere prayer no matter what time he or she makes it. But this is different from the physical Prayer called Salat in Arabic. The prayer she is talking about is supplication, or in Arabic, dua. This can made every morning like she does, but then there is the mandatory prescribed prayers that Allah has commanded us to do in the Quran Say: "My Lord hath commanded justice; and that ye set your whole selves (to Him) at every time and place of prayer, and call upon Him, making your devotion sincere as in His sight" 7:29

The very nature of ritual prayer is to submit to Allah and his omnipotence, to demonstrate ones absolute surrender and humbleness towards the creator of the heavens and the Earth, which is the mark of a true believer or Muslim who submits to God. You are not a true believer if you do not do the prescribed prayers as the Prophet Muhammad said:
"The difference between a believer and a non-believer is Salat."

  • How ungrateful - "I give up a lot to wake up in the morning to pray" LOL stfu girl you just said that you only spared 1 min. for God and you complain? Maybe God should take all of your materialistic possessions away so then you will finally know that you're really not giving up anything at all.

  • She is not Muslim. End of story.

  • she is just confuse

  • I give a fuck in Allah

  • well she is lesbian thats none of our business,but if she just makes comments about islam which hurts the emotion of the believers,then she should stop and mind her own business.i think she needs more reform than islam

  • @ByChoiceMuslim - thats really just linguistics... or semantics... it's only a contradiction to those who believe it is.

  • @Zentz29 - every religion does this....

  • @tarneit69 What a stupid statement. 

  • She is not a Muslim, once you abandon the salat, you are remmoved from the fold od Islam. Allah swt forgives all, should she repent and try to stay away from the sin, she will be forgiven, as Allah swt forgives all except shirk. Allah swt does not look at the person who practices their lusts on the same sex but this does not exempt them from prayer. May Allah swt guide and forgive is all and remove all filth from our characters. Homosexuality is a sin I pray that allturn back to Allah swt ameen

  • "He will not appreaciate the words of gratitude I OFFERED this MORNING?" .... LoL

    If Allah were infront of us and we bowed to Him with our faces on the floor and continued praising and thanking in all ways to Him during the the blessed days and nights of Ramadan, we must still think that we are of the worst of His servants.

  • First she needs to take a full bath, purify herself from the filth of homosexuality, sincerely repent to Allah. then put on a nice hijab and pray the way our dear mother of believers, Aisha(may Allah be pleased with her) used to pray. Then may be Allah will forgive her

  • LOLZ

    It's funny to watch muslims fight over who has the correct interpretation of the quran. You're all just picking which verses you want to follow.
