I have never heard such statements and that's not a basis in Islam.
Agreed. You can't just be adding to the religion. A few months ago some Muslims started talking about cats never walking on the Quran. They are heretics. Making things up to support their iman.
 
When did I realize I was atheist? Around the age 16. I was never religious as a child though, although I was interested in Islam from 13 - 16. Before age 13 my parents never said anything about religion. My family knows I'm an atheist. I'm not the only one. I wouldn't say my parents are full blown atheists but they are unbelievers. A couple years ago I recall my mom talking to my uncle about how "religion is a disease" after hearing about a suicide bombing in Somalia. My aabo thinks Islam is a tool to promote Arabization. My siblings are atheists though. Even in my extended family there are unbelievers and countless non-practicing Muslims.
I was expecting a harsher upbringing from someone this devoted on a religion you left.

People who focus on hating it after leaving usually come from very religious Muslim, catholic, jewish upbringing and are resentful for it.

I suppose this might explain why I don't hate Islam. I was never indoctrinated. Before I was 13 I never knew anything about Muhammad except he was a figure somehow associated with Islam. I had a secular childhood, nobody in my family praying, fasting or anything vaguely Islamic except the basic not eating pork that every other Muslim seems to think is the worst sin imaginable. When I was 6 I thought nobody in my family ate pork because we were all allergic to it.

Then why make your account on here centered on a religion you left if it wasn't resentful. Isn't it draining?

I'd say just enjoy your secular life and to each their own. No need to obsess on Islam.

Enjoyment. Challenging people on beliefs they hold dearly that are ultimately baseless and the resulting hostility that comes from them is entertaining. You don't need to be resentful to be motivated to challenge people on their beliefs. You can just as easily be motivated by entertainment.

Twice a year you have a traumatic event
Last year your girlfriend left you
2016vyou dealt with major depression
2015 you had several embarrassing moments where you got drunk and your white friends left you

Yet you never think to humble yourself to the one who gave you sense and rationality


(Sahih International)
Do they not see that they are tried every year once or twice but then they do not repent nor do they remember?

-Sura At-Tawbah, Ayah 126

Welcome back MuslimManMe. Let's continue where we left off

Surah 2:7

"Allah has set a seal upon their hearts and upon their hearing, and over their vision is a veil. And for them is a great punishment."

Allah set a seal on my heart preventing me from believing. Allah will punish me for not believing. Allah is punishing me for something he did.

How does this make sense again?

And among them are those who listen to you, but We have placed over their hearts coverings, lest they understand it, and in their ears deafness. And if they should see every sign, they will not believe in it. Even when they come to you arguing with you, those who disbelieve say, "This is not but legends of the former peoples."

Yes. So if Allah is the one doing this, sealing the hearts of unbelievers so they won't believe; how exactly does it make sense for him to punish them for not believing?

Yes it does make perfect sense. After not listening to the many times you had the opportunity to listen, you ignored it, and now just by asking these questions you still have an opportunity. That verse is so simple, and so complex. You're getting the answers, but still can't hear, or see it. SubhanAllah

Responses that are passages of the Quran either remaking the same statement or passages about how Allah is magnificent is not an answer to my question. Even in this thread after questioning your response about surah 6 verse 25 you responded by referencing the same verse again with zero elaboration.

Is this really the foundation of your iman? No wonder you mentioned having doubts multiple times. You need better reasons.
