    A Muslim search engine that blocks forbidden content “according to Islamic law” was launched today, a press release stated. ‘Halalgoogling’ fetches results from leading search engines such as Google and Bing and has a built-in “advanced special filtering system that blocks Haram content according to the Law of Islam”, the press release said.

    So there's a universal concept of Haram all of a sudden? Where exactly is this going to draw the line? Indigenous European and Turkish Muslims will eat pork and drink alcohol. There are many British Muslim women who don't wear any kind of Hijab and freely associate with men. One of them even plays a stringed instrument from time to time. I personally know a number of Muslims who earn interest on their savings. One person's Haram is not the same as another's. Stuff like this delegates free thinking away from yourself.

      Good, now they have no excuse to complain whenever The West does anything they don't like, because they shouldn't be able to see it.

        Haram is strictly prohibited in Islam. Below, by sins I'm referring to big ones like Haram (taking interest, eating pork, drinking alcohol, etc). Some human beings make sins. Muslims are human beings. Therefore, some muslims make sins. So, we should not conclude that:

          I appreciate your point. At the same time the Muslim sinners I personally know don't feel all that guilty about it. I guess it depends on how literally you take your scripture.

            Thanks Jim, I'm gald that you've understand my point. :thumbsup:

            Then, I'm sorry to say but they are into serious trouble; that's the biggest thing to worry if they are feeling they are not guilty as compared to the guys who feel guilty (because here there is a chance that in some point of time in future they may quit those mistakes/sins once they realize fully and pray to God for forgiveness). May God let them realize their mistakes and ours too!

              This thread is starting to veer dangerously towards SoapBox territory.

              I was brought up to respect my elders. I don't respect many people nowadays.

                  I very nearly put it into Soapbox territory. If it isn't Soapboxworthy within the next half hour, I'll eat my hat. Provided I am furnished with a dark,dark chocolate hat.

                    Please don't. This is the Insider News forum - not the SoapBox.

                      Your hat, chocolatey or otherwise, is safe. We have veered.
