cOLD is a Scientology follower because he wants to be an intergalactic ruler
he has grand visions of intra-stellar domination

Hip hop needs to get more organic..most of our old classics was created on the humble..niggas bumping into each other at the studio and showing love in the booth …none of that “mail me the beat and Ill lay my verses” shit..I think this poverty/recession shit gon bring us closer together musically.

^ ha, funny but I don’t follow scientology, I just find some gems in its teachings… especially about the “clear” mind and its unlimited potential.

SDP says
brother rashid are there certain abrogated letters you speak of, cuz theres an explanation for each one
————
there are single letters and groups of abbreviated letters in front of 29 different Surahs … no one has, or can explain these letters in totality …

“… the Clear possesses attributes, fundamental and inherent but not always available in an uncleared state, which have not been supected of man and are not included in past discussions of his abilities and behavior.”
how can you not love this.

Ma$e still cant come to Harlem tho. He might be shot or killed if he did. Fck
^^^beef.
^^^^my question has always been, who and why is tryin to kill him
^^
Ma$e was cool with this big time pusher called Baby Maine, who happened to be Max B’s cousin. Maine was just as big as AZ. Thousand dollar minks, german cars, buying the bar out, all that harlem world shit. Ma$e was cool with Maine until he fucked Maine’s baby mother. There was beef between Ma$e’s brothers crew x Baby Maines crew. Maine was shot dead and word got round that it was Ma$e’s crew who shot him, so money has been on Ma$e head since. Niggas are still salty with Mason. Black Rob was cool with both dudes, Puffy too. That is the reason Ma$e moved to Atlanta. Because there was and still is money on his head.

SDP… do you know what the abrogated letters at the beginning of certain surahs in the Qur’an mean?
^THIS KILLS MOST QURANIC DISCUSSION^^^
You won`t ever get a solid answer because most “islamic scholars” don`t know as well what they mean.It`s a “mystery” which I as a wise man from the east don`t subscribe to.
World History>Holy Books because you get an unbiased view from history.The black man/humanity needs knowledge of HIMSELF first and foremost.Seek answers from within instead of always searching outside of self trying to interpret signs and symbols.
^
Hold up, so you mean to tell me what insignificant symbol is going to scare you away from educating yourself? Is that all you guys can bring to the table? there’s a million and one things, there’s no flaws you can pick choose from because they don’t exist.
The Qur’an wasn’t compiled in book form until many years after the prophet during the reign of Abu Bakr.
When there were the recitations of the Qur’an, the Qur’an was revealed over a period of time.
yes there were verses that were relevant and then THEY BECAME IRRELEVANT and they were abrogated..
AND THE QUR’AN MENTIONS THIS IN ITS OWN
PAGES
IT SAYS: WE DO HAVE THINGS FORGOTTEN (NOT IN MEMORY, IN RELEVANCE) , WE REPLACE THINGS WITH THINGS THAT ARE BETTER

one of my goals in life is to make salaat next to scarface after having revered such eloquent lyrics like:
bought me a caddy, 30′s and vogues
brand new crib, brand new clothes
mom would ask questions, and often pitch a bitch
where am I gettin the money? mickey D’s ain’t paid me shit
i’d make up a story, just to get her off my back
uh oh I got a beep I think my boys are out of crack
everything was smooth, exactly how I played it
a dollar to be made, best believe a nigga made it
nickels dimes and twenties, and sixty cent bumps
nigga rollin hard, stackin paper like trump
and I ain’t give a fuck I told you that from the jump
didn’t worry about no static I had a motherfuckin pump
ass out of line, word em up a nigga sprayed em
momma told me shoot first, and ask questions later..
six hundred bucks a motherfuckin hour
and I ain’t fallin short cause I got money and the power, yup.
face must got some mean dawah right about now.

I meant Baby Jay was Max B’s cousin. He was Maine’s right hand man.

How can the words of The Most High be deemed irrelevant by Man…?
That makes no sense to me SDP…but I’ll wait for you to explain, maybe I misinterpreted what you said…

after the prophet (s.a.w.) consulted ALLAH about the struggles the followers were experiencing about the ayat revealed at the time. it wasn’t meant to be about compulsion, it was made to be an easy, applicable way of life.

————-
relevant to whom?… irrelevant to whom?…
if you have no idea what they were, how can you define their relevancy?… if they were so irrelevant, they wouldnt have been taken out and assigned these mysterious letters …
SDP… i can overstand your zealousness, cause i was just like you at one point (regarding Islam)… but youre not ready yet to teach and lead, as you have tried to do in the comments section … there’s many other levels of spirituality to reach before you become a Master Teacher … teaching before that time can lead to confusion and eventually self doubt … and then even more confusion because you will eventually be in turmoil because you spent so much time spinning your wheels in quicksand … study all aspects of spirituality, and universal time and space … only then can you begin to weed out the bullshit… once you start to do that, youll be surprised at what youre left with… and like someone said…. its already inherent in you and in also in front of you … but your mind is somewhat clouded with some pieces of useless doctrine (not the Qur’an per se’)…
bottom line… just do the right thing and love family and self, and the answers will show up quicker while you search and study…

land and rigz and anybody whose interested
everything i want to say is on here regarding the abrogation.

and land, i respect what you have to say
and in no means am I in a position to lead because I myself am corrupt… but that day of confusion and self doubt has happened to me a million times…i was 9… now I’m 20..that day won’t ever surface again and if I can somehow stop being lazy I would like to have more of these discussions with yall.. it most definitely is more beneficial than jay z debates.
scholars won’t ever come on nahright…lol so I have to do my best
