« on: January 27, 2012, 11:03:27 AM »and there are 7 heavens too, jesus is mointioned 25 times in the holy Quran (2+5=7), muslims Circumambulate around the Kaaba 7 times too and stoning the devil:On the 10th day of Dhu al-Hijjah (Eid al-Adha), pilgrims must hit the large jamrah only with 7 pebbles. On each of the following two days they must hit each of the three walls with 7 pebbles, going in order from east to west.Sarahli and diggyon - I for one am VERY interested in learning about the Quran. I remember a post about the number 7 in Quran but I would not be able to find it again.
I would also like to learn about the Torah and Jewish scriptures if we have someone here who could tell us about it. The more we know about each other and each other's cultural history, the more we can understand each other in our differences and our common elements.
Understanding is the basis for tolerance and tolerance is the basis for peace.
In the end, it does not matter which colour or belief we have.
The answer is love and love is understood in every language and culture and that's GREAT.
I would like to encourage you to start a thread about your findings in Quran.
Hey guys. I'm a Muslim so maybe I can help you about Quran. 7 is an important number in Quran too because it says that God created the sky with 7 layers, and the universe was created in 7 days. 7 is a very divine number in Quran too.
