Being A Quranist & Following Only Quran
Yes, certainly—because when a person becomes the kind of human being the Qur’an seeks, they will attain Paradise. If you have faith in the Qur’an, then you are a Muslim; there is no doubt about this.But I have a question:The Qur’an calls its followers Muslims, so what difficulty do you have in calling yourself a Muslim?The Qur’an makes five daily prayers obligatory, so why do you pray only three times?Please read “Tadabbur-e-Qur’an” by Maulana Amin Ahsan Islahi.
The Quran mentioned 3 prayers. Beside I see lot of zoroastrianism influence in Hadith Examples 1. Zoroastrianism: After death, souls must cross the Chinvat Bridge. If you were good, it stays wide; if you were evil, it turns as thin as a hair and as sharp as a sword, dropping you into a pit of demons. The Hadith: Mentions the Sirat bridge over Hell, described exactly the same way—thinner than a hair and sharper than a sword. 2. Zoroastrianism/Persian Lore: The idea of “Sraosha” and “Vayu” or demons interrogating the soul and the “squeezing” of the body in the earth. The Hadith: Detailed stories of Munkar and Nakir (interrogating angels) and the “squeezing of the grave” that even righteous people can’t escape 3. The Five Prayers (Gahs) Zoroastrianism: Practiced five daily prayers called Gahs (Havan, Rapithwin, Uzayirin, Aiwisruthrem, and Ushahin). They also perform ritual washing (ablution) before these prayers. The Hadith: Mandates five prayers, often using the “50-to-5” negotiation story to bridge the gap between the Quranic 3-time framework and the existing Persian 5-time framework. I believe 5 prayers are later standardization under Persian/Zoroastrianism influence_ there is authentic reports that prophet Muhammad use to combined prayers even when there is no reason Further indication for me that there might be 3 prayers. But I am a sincere knowledge seeker_ I will appreciate other opinions .
