egypt is considered North Africa
We are apart of the Middle East both geographically and culturally. We are also a transcontinental country.

invented machines, massively improved artilleries, canons, gunpowder weapons, made explosive shells etc etc..
1) None of these had anything to do with secularism
2) it was Asian countries who invented gunpowder and weapons.
ecular Rational view of the world of the Europeans won out over the Islamic view of the world of Indian Muslims and the Dharmic view of the world of Indian Hindus
Yeah no, especially since the concept of secularism was invented by a Muslim.
That is what the series SHOW.
Did you even watch it? They didn't.
What would you say about the self-immolations of the Tibetans? There are monks in the Buddhist and Jain tradition who starve themselves to death when they see that their bodies have aged....Human beings are complex , we cannot know their motivations..as for Sati, its a red herring...4,000 deaths over 20 years pales in comparison to other injustices of history
I said no SANE person would do such a thing, Buddhist monks aren't sane. They try to deny their basic biological functions for some grade A nonsensical bullshit.
Hey we all know what Bigots like you "know" , like the virgins waiting for you in heaven if you do jihad
Spare me the list of all that you "know". Share that with your fellow islamic bigots and camel lovers. Go tell them that you "Know" that they will all be raised from the dead as zombies at the day of "judgement"

In any case I have no interest in discussing a fantasy tv series with you or anybody.
Then don't bring it up, dipshit.
Now why don't you tell us how your prophet muhammed "forced" himself on his underage wife ? I am certain you appreciate that work of literature too.
"According to the generally accepted tradition,
Ayesha (ra) was born about eight years before
Hijrah. But according to another narrative in
Bukhari (
Kitaab al-Tafseer)
Ayesha (ra) is reported to have said that at the time
Surah Al-Qamar, the 54th chapter of the Qur’an , was revealed, “I was a young girl”. The 54th
Surah of the Qur’an was revealed nine years before
Hijrah. According to this tradition,
Ayesha (ra) had not only been born before the revelation of the referred
surah, but was actually a young girl (
jariyah), not an infant (
sibyah) at that time. Obviously, if this narrative is held to be true, it is in clear contradiction with the narratives reported by
Hisham ibn `urwah. I see absolutely no reason that after the comments of the experts on the narratives of
Hisham ibn `urwah, why we should not accept this narrative to be more accurate.
The actual statements referred to in the above paragraph, their translations and their complete references are given below:
Ayesha (ra) said: I was a young girl, when verse 46 of
Surah Al-Qamar, [the 54th chapter of the Qur’an ], was revealed. (
Sahih Bukhari,
Kitaab al-Tafseer, Arabic,
Bab Qaulihi Bal al-saa`atu Maw`iduhum wa al-sa`atu adhaa wa amarr)
Ayesha was married after Hijrah (migration). Thus, if she could recall that Chapter 54 was revealed, she must have been at least 3-5 years old, plus the 9 years before hijrah, which places her at 12-14 before Hijrah and at least 14-16 before marriage. This makes it impossible that she was 9 or 6.
According to a number of narratives,
Ayesha (ra) accompanied the Muslims in the battle of
Badr and
Uhud. Furthermore, it is also reported in books of
hadith and history that no one under the age of 15 years was allowed to take part in the battle of
Uhud. All the boys below 15 years of age were sent back.
Ayesha‘s (ra) participation in the battle of
Badr and
Uhudclearly indicate that she was not nine or ten years old at that time. After all, women used to accompany men to the battle fields to help them, not to be a burden on them.
A narrative regarding
Ayesha‘s (ra) participation in
Badr is given in
Muslim,
Kitaab al-jihaad wa al-siyar, Arabic,
Bab karahiyah al-isti`anah fi al-ghazwi bikafir.
Ayesha (ra) while narrating the journey to
Badr and one of the important events that took place in that journey, says:
"When we reached
Shajarah."
It is quite obvious from these words that
Ayesha (ra) was with the group traveling toward
Badr.
A narrative regarding
Ayesha‘s (ra) participation in the battle of
`uhud is given in
Bukhari,
Kitaab al-jihaad wa al-siyar, Arabic,
Baab Ghazwi al-nisaa wa qitalihinna ma`a al-rijaal.
Anas reports that On the day of
Uhud, people could not stand their ground around the Prophet (pbuh). [On that day,] I saw
Ayesha (ra) and
Umm-e-Sulaim (ra), they had pulled their dress up from their feet [to save them from any hindrance in their movement].”
As far as the fact that children below 15 years were sent back and were not allowed to participate in the battle of
`uhud, it is narrated in
Bukhari,
Kitaab al-maghaazi,
Baab ghazwah al-khandaq wa hiya al-ahzaab, Arabic.
Ibn `umar (ra) states that the Prophet (pbuh) did not permit me to participate in
Uhud, as at that time, I was fourteen years old. But on the day of
Khandaq, when I was fifteen years old, the Prophet (pbuh) permitted my participation.”
This battle took place before Ayesha’s marriage to Prophet Muhammad, so now we see that she was at least 15-16 years old.
According to almost all the historians
Asma (ra), the elder sister of
Ayesha (ra) was ten years older than
Ayesha(ra). It is reported in
Taqreeb al-Tehzeeb as well as
Al-Bidaayah wa al-Nihayahthat
Asma (ra) died in 73
hijrah when she was 100 years old. Now, obviously if
Asma (ra) was 100 years old in 73
hijrah she should have been 27 or 28 years old at the time of
hijrah. If
Asma (ra) was 27 or 28 years old at the time of
hijrah,
Ayesha (ra) should have been 17 or 18 years old at that time. Thus,
Ayesha (ra), if she got married in 1 AH (after
hijrah) or 2 AH, was between 18 to 20 years old at the time of her marriage.
The relevant references required in this argument are provided below:
For the Difference of Ayesha’s (ra) and Asma’s (ra) Age:
According to
Abd al-Rahman ibn abi zannaad:
Asma (ra) was ten years older than
Ayesha. (
Siyar A`la’ma’l-nubala’,
Al-Zahabi, Vol. 2, pg. 289, Arabic,
Mu’assasatu’l-risala’h, Beirut, 1992)
According to
Ibn Kathir:
She [i.e.
Asma] was ten years elder to her sister [i.e.
Ayesha]. (
Al-Bidaayah wa al-Nihaayah,
Ibn Kathir, Vol. 8, pg. 371, Arabic,
Dar al-fikr al-`arabiy,
Al-jizah, 1933)
For Asma’s (ra) Age at Her Death in 73 AH
According to
Ibn Kathir:
She [i.e.
Asma] witnessed the killing of her son during that year [i.e. 73 AH], as we have already mentioned, five days later she herself died, according to other narratives her death was not five but ten or twenty or a few days over twenty or a hundred days later. The most well known narrative is that of hundred days later. At the time of her death, she was 100 years old. (
Al-Bidaayah wa al-Nihaayah,
Ibn Kathir, Vol. 8, pg. 372, Arabic,
Dar al-fikr al-`arabiy,
Al-jizah, 1933).
According to
Ibn Hajar Al-Asqalaaniy:
She [i.e. Asma (ra)] lived a hundred years and died in 73 or 74 AH.” (
Taqreeb al-Tehzeeb,
Ibn Hajar Al-Asqalaaniy, Pg. 654, Arabic,
Bab fi al-nisaa, al-Harf al-alif, Lucknow)"
