The book was inspired by the Creator of the Worlds.
Why don't you write down all your knowledge on life and death, and put it side by side with the Qu'ran. Then see which one you would rather follow.

Hmmm, let's see, the options are: live my life the way I want to live it vs. blindly following the rules of some book.
I don't need a book to guide me through life, if you do that's fine. I'm just saying, I find it odd that some people are so into religion that they won't do something as harmless as listen to music.

isn't music banned in islam anyway?
--- End quote ---
No. The Qu'ran says nothing against music. There is report with a weak chain of narration, of the Prophet Muhammad saying something against music, therefore some Muslims do not listen to it. However, as Muslims we are only obligated to regard as forbidden what Allah has made forbidden for us in the Noble Qu'ran.

Well, I'm glad you're not like them, but there are actually quite a few Orthodox Muslims who do claim that music is in fact har'am. That ain't my opinion, so don't try and debate this shit with me, but I am simply pointing out that your opinion is not necesarily shared by a large percentage of other Muslims.

There it is... I think those who will follow Islam won't do it because they fav rappers are Muslim but because they found theyselves in the religion. I'm a fan of Hip Hop, a mad one, but I know the difference between being a fan of it and "idolise" (don't know exactly the word) it. I found myself into many many aspects of Islam, I found myself into many aspects of hinduism too, and I just follow my thoughts...I don't have to follow another religion just because most of the culture that I love (Hip Hop) does it. If my father is an alcoholic I should be one too?(it's not a good example tho)but don't know how to exactly express myself... But in fact you are right...many of the ones who will embrace Islam are hip hop fans, but ask yourself how many will do it because they love Islam and how many will do it cause they love rappers?

this guy is right
if u follow someone elses life, how are u meant to become ur own person?

--- End quote ---
LOL at you talking about Pac. Why do you care what Pac says? He was an American Christian and therefore was living a life of lies, right? :psych:

--- End quote ---
So because they are not mainstream they are irrelevent. Does that mean all those underground muslim rappers are irrelevent too?
